T's Out In The Field Journal

[T From CA]

I've been checking out this forum for the past month reading current and old threads from back in the day. I read the bible and countless articles from this site. I'm as ready as I'll ever be so it's time for me to step out into the field.

BIGGEST ISSUES
Daytime gaming......... What makes it difficult for me is that I feel like I'm bothering the women when I approach. Also, I have issues when it comes to keeping conversations going. I can open a girl up in the daytime out in public, but I run out of things to say way too fast. That's when it ends up in that dreaded awkward silence. I can go up to girls at lounges/bars/clubs because they're expecting to get hit on. Not so much when a girl is out at the bookstore shopping for books.

MY GOAL
To be able to go up to any girl I want whether it's at a mall, Target, Best Buy, Book Store, or wherever and approach with confidence and no anxiety. I don't care too much for the night scene, so I want to get comfortable with the daytime gaming. I'm busy with work Mon-Fri, so all of my action will be on the weekends. I want to approach 15 girls a weekend for 8 weeks and see where I'm at. I figure the first month will be a bunch of trial and errors and hopefully towards the end of the 8 weeks I'll be in a nice groove. I will start my approaches 1 week from now on July 24th, but meanwhile I will spend this weekend getting in my 50 eye contacts and hellos.

Let The Journey Begin :box:

I started off the day going to a salsa class for beginners. I've always heard that salsa clubs are a great way to meet women, so I figured Id take a few lessons and get some of the basics down. None of the women were nothing to write home about, but it was a good lesson as far as learning the basics.
I spoke with all 6 of my classmates which was a good warm up for later on.

After class I went to a mall with the intention of getting as many hellos as possible. I thought this would simple and that I could knock out at least 25 easily........I was wrong! It was a struggle to get anyone to make eye contact with me. Everyone is either looking away or preoccupied with something else. I was surprised at how difficult this was. I walked around the mall and went inside Target, JC Penny, Macys, Spencers, Old Navy, Sears and got in 14 hellos. I then went to Borders and got in another 4 so I'm sitting at 18 right now.

I will be starting my approaches next weekend, but as I'm doing my hellos I'm also playing different scenarios in my head when I see a prospect walk by or standing alone somewhere. I'll see how many hello's I can bang out on Sunday.
