Going out for a stroll, be back in a few

[r0cky]

Been reflecting on some things. Looking at my improvement since I started this summer I've noticed that my game peaked a week or 2 after I lost my job. After that my game and my willingness to be rejected have declined severely. I came up with some conclusions.

I thought about the question "Am I willing to be rejected 1000 times to attain my goal?" that Dragon asked me (awesome dude, his game is something to behold) and I dont think I am. At this moment at least.

There are many things that have surfaced in my life that have affected my motivation as of lately. Losing my job a month and half ago and not being able to find a new one has left me with financial burdens which occupy my head a lot. Being unemployed has taken a toll on my self esteem also, I hate being a burden to my family and looking at my parents for support again.
Also school has started and this is my last year, so I'm going under some pressures to perform well and finding a job in my field.

These are some things that have taken priority in my life in the last few weeks and have won over my motivation for being a pua. Even tho I still love the idea of being a pua in the future.
For now I'm gonna take a little break from this game. At least until i find some financial security. (or until I get really pissed off because a chick played me out).

I'd like to read some motivational material. If anybody can recommend me anything.

its tough to play the game regularly unless you have a stable lifestyle - stable job, some finances and a decent place to stay.

So, look for some ways to get your life on track, and always remember that pickup is just a glorified hobby, girls are for fun, what's more important is your goals in life, family, friends etc.

If you believe in Mystery's advocated purpose of life - Survival and Replication - you will understand that Survival is more important than replication. Once you are confident about your survival, you can look for replication.

Anyway, there are a lot of people here with a lot of problems.. just try staying positive and happy.. work hard and party harder.

Yes this is true, and I do feel happy with my decision.

I think the Maslow's hierarchy of needs explains it well too. People are more motivated to fullfill their need for health and security of resources before they are motivated to find companionship.

At this moment it all rings very true for me.
