Got any tips?
LOLLLLL.

I got bros up in MTL and their experience isn't quite so.

I say, for now, find some dudes who are more experienced than you, go out with them and learn what you can.

For me, dance floor is pathetically easy, it's just a matter of walking up. But there might be something in your aura/vibe that is getting you rejected.

That's all I can say without actually seeing you in action.

According to me,I've done so much today. Last night, I kept saying to myself that I was going to do "whatever it takes" to follow through on my goals and I did it. I can say with true conviction that I did EVERYTHING in my power today. I didn't have the "perfect" day where everything went my way from sun-up to sundown, but I DID keep going at all costs, I stayed persistent, and I took MASSIVE ACTION.So its massive thing for me..

LOLLLLLL.

I read this part and I said to myself, "Holy ♥♥♥♥...this guy talks alot like me". Then I realized I wrote this specific part.

Cheers. Ha.

But yes, action is needed for certain things. Persistence pays off in certain cases.

Have a look at Dragon Naturally Speaking. It's voice recognition software that can be used for high speed dictation. Even without RSI, it's a massive productivity booster if you have high volumes of typing to do.

Hahah, that's so ironic.

I ended up buying it. The professional version. I have it, I even bought a special mic for it, but I didn't like it that much.

I still type somewhere between 75-120 WPM, but I ended up buying this 2000 dollar machine that basically regenerates the cells in the body. I placed it over my wrists and now I can type/play piano without any problems at all.

So yes. Hahah, problem solved. Ha.

Dude, this is the most amazing thread that I've come across!

It's definitely a timely wake-up call for me to take that MASSIVE ACTION that you've done. I cannot tell you how many times I've made great plans like yours but never had the guts to follow through on them.

It's great hearing you talk about how much vizzing helped catapult you towards action, because I've had a feeling for a while now that that's exactly what I need to do.

I'm very passionate about running but have been shy about going after the goals I really want due to so many people imposing their limits on me. But enough is enough, it's time to lay it all down and commit. Reaching the goal itself is not important, I could fall on my face, but I'll never know until I attempt it. And I'll grow so much in the process because they're big goals. Time to man up!

Thanks for the inspiration bro. I'll update you when things are rolling.

Might be heading to Opera on a Wednesday. My sister recently turned 18 and she wants to go clubbing with me, lol. Not sure if that's a good idea, but she's bringing her girlfriends and we are driving in separate cars. Lol.

It'll be some Wednesday soon, unless I end up traveling somewhere.

So I'm in Atlanta.

Had a talk with my girlfriend from Austin. It's time for me to follow my own path. She understands. I love her dearly for it and she supports me fully on my path.

She's 41, has a sexy body, I have a great connection with her, we can communicate freely, and I genuinely like her as a person. I'm thankful that I met her as she's shown me so many things about myself, life, sex, relationships, women, and love in general.

I just like to work alone and be by myself, she understands that and respects my need for space.

So, time to spend some time apart...yep.

--------------------

It looks like I'm getting into Insurance again. Life and Health, specifically. Some magical things are on the horizon. Tomorrow starts a new day. Magical things are happening. Yep.

Let's rock this...

Well, SP Forum, it's been good.

Fortunately, everything I've written comes directly through my Journal 5 application, so...all the important stuff is already saved.

It has been good.

Cheers.

Namely: I can't believe this girl actually likes me, she's too hot to date me. This is silly and irritates me. Its not valid. I know rationally its not valid and I think I have to keep reinforcing that message to my subconscious mind to let it sink in. Leaving aside for a moment the fact that are no prerequisites for attraction (i.e. you don't have to look great, make 1MM per year, etc.), there are plenty of objective reasons to believe she would be attracted to me.

1.) I have tremendous social proof at this office. I sit in a corner office across from her cubicle when I travel to the company. I have vice presidents coming in and out to meet with me. I am a full 10+ years younger than any of the people who are coming to talk to me. Definitely the only one under 40 (in my mid twenties) with an office there.
2.) connected to this, I have money and I'm sure she's aware of that
3.) I am a successful, powerful guy.

I am all hung up on how beautiful this girl is, but she has her imperfections. Body is amazing due to working out constantly. She's a little old though and it is starting to show slightly. Also, unmarried at 30+. A little short. Has kind of a lame job at the company. So WHY am I putting this person on such a pedestal? Bizzare man.

Also, dont worry about being nervous. If someone percieves you as being nervous while doing something, its a positive thing because it shows you can push through fear.

Default Final Post - 666

So the above post was something that I read from someone else.

The Melody Mystery has been solved.

I'm just LOL'ing hard.

HAHAHAHAHHAH

Well, Steve Pavlina Forums. I always like to end on a funny note, and this is my 666th post.

I've been wondering why I kept running back here even though I don't really care much about them, but now I know my answer.

I just had one more important thread to read that would give me the epiphany of a lifetime.

"Girls can like me, just for me"

I thought that I believed that once upon a time, but I actually have dozens of examples of first hand experiences which makes all the difference.

Wow. Not gonna lie, this is probably some of the absolute funniest ♥♥♥♥ that I've realized so far. Like, I just can't help but laugh. It's so funny.

LOLLLLLL.

666th post. Love to end on a comedic note.

Cheers everyone.
