There are quite a few people on this site who I see whining and complaining day in and day out about what losers they are at school, how they have no friends, and how they’re too nervous to approach women. I haven’t been here as long as some of the ol’ veterans like shydude, dannowillbookem, Docs and many, many others that I don’t have the time to mention, but I’m sick and friggin’ tired of the crap I read on this site, most noticeably this forum. Before you hit the “High School Discussion Forum” link at the top to head back to the main forum because you assume that this post is nothing more than *****ing about the n00bs, take a moment and at least read a couple more paragraphs, please. It’s all I ask.
The biggest problem I notice with these people isn’t that they’re afraid to fail. We see it all the time. “What if she says no?” “What if she tells me to **** off?” “What if she doesn’t like me?” “What if we can’t find anything to talk about?” and so on so forth. At first glance, this may look like a fear of failure, but basic logic states otherwise.
If people were truly afraid to fail, you know what they’d be doing? They’d be working their asses off day and night, week in and week out to ensure that they succeeded! There would be no hesitation! They’d be working constantly to prove to themselves and others that “I’m not a failure, see? Look at what I did!”, but do we see that? NO! It is VERY rare for us to see anything of the sort.
This leads me to believe one thing… you know what that is? PEOPLE ARE MORE AFRAID OF SUCCESS THAN FAILURE, BECAUSE THE IDEA THAT THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISH THEIR GOALS IS TOO MUCH FOR THEM TO HANDLE.
And that’s that, ladies and gentlemen. So the next time you’re told to “grab your balls and get over your fear of women,” what you should really be doing is grabbing your balls and getting over your fear of yourself. Why is this? This is because fear isn’t real, it’s an emotional and sometimes physical response to a perceived threat. A cute looking woman is NOT a threat to your survival. That's in your head. The threat is that you might not be able to handle the thought of you actually managing to get that girl to dig you.
Peace out boys, I’ve got work to do.
