"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Alls that matters with succeeding in life and with girls is that YOU TRY.

THE OUTCOME IS IRRELEVANT AND NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT PART.

If you try and fail, you will STILL BE CONTENT because you know what the outcome is.

Nothing hurts your self-esteem more that NOT TRYING (especially when you get good vibes) failing to act and constantly having to wonder "what if".

Trying is good because it puts EVERYTHING to rest despite the outcome.

Perfect examples from this past weekend.

Three HB's at the bar were standing together and I thought I was getting eye contact from 1 or 2 of them. I approached and got shot down. However, the fact that I KNEW the outcome and didn't have to go home that night wondering "what if" puts the mind at ease and raises confidence.


I also got a phone number off a HB7. Despite being nervous, I called her tonight and I TRIED, instead of wussing out and NOT calling her. If she calls, she calls. If she does not, oh well. My mind is at peace because I TRIED and my brain is not beating myself wondering "what if".


HAVE YOU TRIED RECENTLY?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Concise and well chosen words. I liked the read.
However, there are many topics discussing this under a different title.

To answer your question: no, I haven't tried when I should have and I beat myself mentally.
Trying is the essence. :)

No,I don't ever really try,that's what kills me the most. It's like I sit and wish things could be better.

i agree with what your saying. nothing makes me feel better than ACTUALLY trying instead of wondering what if. I get a better feeling off trying than when a girls actually says yes, gives a number or whatever.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I'm going to have to go all nerdy on this but remember the words of Master Yoda, do or do not there is no try.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

to "It's-Me":

I want to add something important to this post,

You are wrong saying by trying you already succeed why? -because there are two types of trying.

And those who are like me that have done many things onthe journey of self growth and development know what I am saying.

1. Trying LIKE YOU MEAN IT. The desire to suceed has to really be in you. You do it and you really make it count because you have a goal that you truly want to achieve (get a woman, improve with females in general, lose weight, gain muscle, improve your academics etc..)

2. Trying for the sake of trying. For a mental self-pat on the back. For a "checkmark" for your ego. So you can pound yourself in the chest like a gorilla and proclaim "but I TRIED!". No. Don't bother because you better off not having tried at all.

The key is to be 100% honest with yourself to tell the difference.

Not sure what I mean? Hint: go to "the masturbation thread" to see prime examples of number two.

And by trying you get better. Believe me, there was a time in my life when I felt absolutely HOPELESS with women. Like I just thought I didn't get it. It bothered me to see people all around me succeeding with women while I couldn't get sh*t.

But I kept at it and now I'm actually decent. I'm not a super advanced PUA. I can't pick up any girl I want. But at least now, I regularly have some success. I get shot down a lot, but I also succeed with some. That's a lot better than having ZERO success.
