NO.......not that plunge....I am NOT getting married guys.

The plunge to which I refer to is quitting a job....and starting my own business. Absolutely one of the craziest feelings I have experienced in my life so far. I had just started working for a new company (health/fitness) and this morning was supposed to be the start of my Day 3 on the job....instead in the shower this morning, I thought about how sh1tty this new job actually is. They lied about the position, they had very minimal training, and really just dont give a rats a$$ about the majority of employees. So I actually sacked the fvck up and never got into my car. In fact....Ive been studying, researching, and planning my own business for the last 3 hours. Absolutely thrilling and anxious all wrapped into one.

So how does this relate to sosuave and game?

STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONES......EVERY......FVCKIN.......DAY.

Doesnt have to be as dramatic as what Ive done, but way too many fvckin people wander through their lives like damn zombies. You only have one life people so you need to TAKE ACTION. This is my dream....and its getting started earlier than I had anticipated, but its time to take the bull by the horns and get to work. Sure Im going to run into obstacles.....but I will overcome them.

So quit fretting about the small stupid sh1t in life and BE BOLD.

Quit being afraid of women....instead go talk to them

Quit being hung up on your ex girlfriend....instead go meet a new girl and bang her this week!

Quit crying and complaining about how hard it is to get laid.....instead change your attitude and become outcome dependent.

Quit working a boring a$$ job that makes you miserable....instead go for a career change or tap into your very own entrepreneurial spirit and work for yourself for a change.

ACT gentlemen.....we ALL have the power to ACT.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Great post..

What kind of business are you going to do? How do you have the money and confidence to start it after only 3 hours of planning? Anyways best of luck I need to quit my job as well im thinking more of a 'sell all my possessions and head for warm weather' kind of thing though..

+1.

There are articles out there about how game relates directly to employment and work. Will try digging a couple out.

All the best dude. Keep us posted.

Its a business based in the health and fitness industry.

Start up costs are very minimal on purpose. I also have clients loyal to be before I even start which helps with getting that first bit of money coming back. As far as having the confidence.....its just 100% pure and raw confidence my man. I just fully believe in what I am doing and know I am providing a great service which gives people a lot of value for the price. Im in this to help people, and thats the bottom line. If I make 20k, 30k, 50k, or 100k doing this is not the MAIN goal. Sure....I want to blow up, but only time will tell.

There is no doubt work and "game" are related.

Ive just begun and I can already say that I have worked harder because its FOR MYSELF vs working for someone else. Got up early this morning(not by choice, mind started racing with ideas), shoveled coffee down my throat, and got to work. Its all about the work ethic people. The US has grown lazy and complacent.....very similar to how men act in relationships with their girlfriends.

From the advice you have steered many people with, I wish you all the best mate!
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Indeed. Am planning the very same right now.

When Jesus spoke of raising the dead he wasn't talking of the buried but the living dead.

I am going to guess you are now a Beachbody "coach".

Still searching for good pieces on game vs. work. I've read a couple of good ones recently just can't remember where they were.

Saw the film Limitless recently. Though not entirely related and obviously a bit fantastical, it kind of objectifies what I am trying to achieve in life; i.e. using more than the bog-standard 20% of my brain in order to reach full potential. If you haven't seen, I highly recommend.

This thread is very inspiring. Wanna go self-employed myself now!
