The Death of the DJ Bootcamp

[Eric Smith]

Greetings fellow DJs! I'm sure some of you have entered into this thread wondering what the hell am I saying. The problem is that DJ Bootcamps are too sluggish to achieve the results you need. I have seen many people attempt to do the DJ Bootcamp and have failed. People often times need to see the results quick and for the most part, I agree with them. Thing is, we already have the DJ mentality inside us, it just needs to be unlocked.

See, the thing that is holding us back is the restraint from society that we have received over the years. We have a lot of DJ techniques encoded into us from genetics. So why should we spend upwards of 8 weeks achieving this?

NOTE: This is just an alternative. If the DJ Bootcamp works for you, go with it. This is merely just another suggestion.

- The DJ Bible. Very interesting stuff. A lot of it is very inspiring. Sometimes at the beginning of an article, I am normal. At the end, I am hyper, ecstatic, etc. Basically ready to take on the world. I say every morning, run, and then read an article or two from the bible. This, along with eating right, should motivate your ass to start off the new day.

- Now that you are supercharged, embrace your masculinity (refer to Pook's thread for this), and take the world head on. If you see a girl or someone who appears friendly, say Hi. None of this 50 a week BS. There is no limit to how many you can do. If you see a girl you want to talk to, talk to her.

- If you talk to her, introduce yourself. Be yourself. Don't be afraid of her. Yes, she has boobs. Yes, she has a vagina. Yes, you are a man. Take charge. If she turns you down, life goes on. You will get rejected a lot in life so get used to it.

- Be funny and charismatic. You got something on your mind? Say it! Everyone likes jokes. Don't be so tethered down.

- Your work day or school day is done. Good. If you have lifted weights already, do this now. A great cool down or warm up for the night ahead.

- Eat dinner. Call up your buddies and see what they are doing. Doing nothing? Fine, do something on your own. This could be your hobby or whatever...just don't sit your ass down on the couch unless its a movie with friends.

- When you go out to a social area, if you see a girl, please apply the 3 second rule. Approach because imagine that every second is like another dude going up to her. This should motivate you.

-------
Do this until this becomes a reflex, an everyday event for you. You need to take charge of your life immediately, not in 8 weeks.

Agreed.

Why wait 8 weeks?

That's a bit steep, no?

Sieze the day!

 

[Nicholas Hill]

Its impossible to flip a switch, guys.

Eight weeks is too fast in my opinion.

You need to spend time convincing yourself of the effectiveness of being a DJ. You don't do that in five minutes.

It doesn't matter how long it takes. It could take as little as a week or two for one person and several months for another. What matters is how diligent you are at your training. If you embrace the ideas and go balls to the wall on your approaches with mad confidence, it could theoretically be done is much less time.

I agree with the those that disagree in this thread. Your advice sounds good on paper but in the real world I don't think it's very practical. I know at the beginning of the DJ bootcamp I was terrified to even talk to a girl but now it's no big deal, why? Because change comes in babysteps, it's pretty damn hard to revise all of your social habits overnight, but becoming something is a lot easier if you do it in little peices. Besides, if a lot of people didn't have the bootcamp they wouldn't be motivated to do a lot of the things you said, they would just sit in innaction and remain AFC's, the reason it's so great is because it is a STRUCTURED program to change and you get quantitative results, (HBs, phone #'s, and p*ssy).

Why not? It took me 2-3 weeks to go from a DFC loser to a date with an attractive lady. I'm not stroking my ego; its just that I got tired of pissing away time and just approached women by growing a pair. This method isn't for DJ perfection in the first day, its to quickly speed up the process. If I followed the DJ guideline, I would have less than half of the dating experience I have now.

Babysteps are fine for people but for others like me, it can be achieved in much less time. Again, read what I said. I'm just merely offering an alternative. This method worked for me. It may work for others, it may not.

There are some people who could condense the 8 weeks of DJ Boot Camp into less. Some.

However, I believe, for the most part, the bootcamp is actually TOO intensive. 8 weeks isn't enough time to go from (taking an extreme case) a guy who has trouble talking to anyone to a total mack daddy. It just isn't. That much change takes more time. I agree with nicholas: baby steps.

I'd actually like to see a stretched out version of the Boot Camp. I agree it kinda defeats the concept of "boot camp"..... but it just might turn out to be far more effective for those aspiring DJs who just need to take smaller steps.
