Hardwork.


I was raised to believed that the easiest ways to anything, are the worst directions you can ever take.

This applies to everything. Nobody can become great unless they work hard. This goes from becoming a DJ, working out, sports or any disciplines. And of course, this applies to self-improvement the most.

Self-improvement is hard. Very hard, for the simple fact that everybody has their comfort zones. Nobody likes to step out of this comfort zone, this is intrinsic. It is human nature, it is 'nature'. Even animals are like this.

I don't believe that there are any 'easy ways' to anything. Therefore, becoming a 'DJ' is not easy either. However, it doesn't mean that it HAS to be hard. It only has to be hardwork. Being shot down is very demoralizing, therefore 'thinking' about being shot down will come to the same end. The hard work comes from, willing to go againts the grain - to take action when it doesn't feel natural to do so. Even if you feel that you will be shot down, run HEAD FIRST! Yes that's right, run in head first, do it, go for it - get it over with. Why?

Because that is the hardest way. The easiest route would be to not approach/close or take any form of action on your target. By the hardwork principle, this is not only the easiest, but also the sleaziest most pathetic, pointless path.

Easiest because it allows you to avoid confrontation.
Sleaziest because you are only being dishonest to yourself.
Pathetic because ... need I say this?
Finally, it is pointless because the fact that you did not step out of your comfort zone prevented you to take action.

Therefore, you are back right where you started. With nothing.


Stepping out of our comfort zone is hard, very hard. Therefore that is why I believe that for that simple matter, EVERYBODY should be stepping out of their comfort zone AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, as it allows you to self-improve. How? Us, humans are very adaptible creatures. Therefore, the more you put yourself out there (as in outside of your comfort zone), the faster you WILL become comfortable.

Next thing you know, whatever was 'naturally' hard to you, just became 'natural' for you.

Happy Trails!
 

Just because a woman listens to you and acts interested in what you say doesn't mean she really is. She might just be acting polite, while silently wishing that the date would hurry up and end, or that you would go away... and never come back.

After reading weeks of articles I've basically got two things going around in my head, those are:

JUST DO IT; TAKE ACTION

and

Be confident about you're sexuality

edit; and life is a big paradox, forgot that one

I'll defenitely take action when I shed this fat :)

This is good stuff to read, especially every some days. I know I will have forgotten this post in about 3 days, that's why I bookmark it at the MOTIVATION section :)
You'll take action when you drop some fat? Screw that, TAKE ACTION Now! Before you trip down the stairs tomorrow morning and break your neck, or before some loon pulls a gun to your head and REALLY puts your life in perspective. 4lbs of fat doesnt change what you should do now. 40lbs of fat MIGHT change what you should do now, but only because it'll be more physically demanding.

Nice article, I needed this to get off my ass and sort out some things I've been putting off for a while :) Keep it up :)

That shouldn't matter ^^^.

Infact, that should help you better as the less comfortable with yourself you are right now - the more you step out of that comfort zone, the less uncomfortable you will be in the future (as you improve your self image) because you already experienced a far worst degree of uncomfort.

All that to say that if you do it now - it will be a piece of cake in a few months.

Everyone knows that it's necessary to leave your comfort zone to make progress.

The problem is that they just don't want to.

Because of fear...
Sazuki man, trust me on this, ive been in that bullsh!t position, when im like ok i will approach next month when i lose some fat, or i will approach when my acne on my back goes. Your lieing to yourself dude, trust me. Get the sh!t done now, why waste 1 month of oppurtunities, just because you don't feel comfortable with who you are. Be comfortable, looks isn't everything... Trust me just go out there now, you will be rewarded with results, as long as you put in the effort.

this is a great post man

honestly tho, i'm sick of how i am. i read an article, i get all motivated, but the next week, im back on these boards looking for motivation again until i find the next post about taking action

motivation is like food, you get hungry and you need to feed yourself, and you may be full for a while, but you will get hungry again

im tired of my life, i plan to be off these boards soon enough.

Tell her a little about yourself, but not too much. Maintain some mystery. Give her something to think about and wonder about when she's at home.

Same here. Breaking the comfort zone I have in terms of interacting with the opposite sex is something I try to do at least once every single day. Each time, it feels better. It's nerve wracking for a few seconds, and then once you're done it just feels great, knowing that you've gone a step outside of what you think you can take. The same applies to anything. In fact, I'm about to stop lazing around and do my schoolwork right now. It's not what I'm used to doing, but I want to do well and I need to study. I'm stepping out of that comfort zone and it'll pay off in the end, I know it.

I want to add a very good quote to this:

"What if it is too hard?"
"Nothing in life worth having comes easy. Life is hard, get used to it"
