Stop, hesitate… you’re dead!
I used to live in San Diego, aka Man Diego because of all the military bases located there. During the weekends, the troops would infiltrate the local bars and clubs and unfortunately, most of these troops were not comprised of hot women. The biggest complaint I heard at the bars was “These Marines are so aggressive, I can’t stand them.” Women would complain that they would get really drunk and hit on them and guys would complain that they were drunk d-bags. These guys were really just intimidated by the Marines and too scared to admit it. I have a ton of respect for guys in the military because it takes courage to make that type of commitment. After working with a lot of veterans, I found that they all tend to have one trait in common, they take action. And men who take action always get the most out of everything they do. I’ve never been in battle but I’ve played my fair share of paintball and Counter-Strike back in the day. When you hesitate and stop to assess the situation, you’re dead!
I recently took a group of guys out to play paintball. I played a few games by intentionally thinking and assessing the situation and I got shot very quickly each time. Then I played a few games by silencing my mind and just trusting my body and gut instincts. My play improved dramatically. When you are faced with a do or die situation, you learn to take risks. You have two options, kill or be killed. This leaves no room for mental masturbation. Mental masturbation is the biggest problem guys have when it comes to meeting women. If you see and girl you really want to meet and you hesitate, 99.9% of the time you will talk yourself out of approaching her.
Our society is addicted to mental masturbation. It’s simply way to easy to be lazy. Trust me, I know!
I know people that are intentionally not working because they are making $1500/month by sitting at home and collecting unemployment checks from the government. Is that serving anyone? I’ll spare you the political rant but I want to point something out. If success with women is important to you, I promise you that it WON’T happen! You might want to read that sentence again. Important things get pushed off for urgent things. So if success with women is urgent for you, I promise you that it WILL happen. You have to put yourself in a do or die scenario or you simply won’t get it done. You cannot be trusted.
Maybe this will inspire you to get into action. When you take action, one of two things will happen.
1. You will achieve your desired result.
2. You will screw up and feel embarrassment and/or shame.
Option 1 sounds great and option 2 sounds awful! If you are not feeling embarrassment and shame on a regular basis, I promise you are not expanding as a person. We are either expanding or contracting so ask yourself, what are you doing right now? When you feel embarrassment and shame, it’s proof that you are growing. You took a risk and failed. But we learn through our failures. It took Edison hundreds of failures to get that light bulb right. He was quoted as saying “I ran out of ways to do it wrong!” So go out and do something today that has the potential for either success or embarrassment. You’ll be glad you did.
I’m going to be speaking about this concept in greater detail during my free upcoming teleclass and seminar. If you live in LA, you can learn more about the seminar on my meetup page. And if not, you can learn more about the teleclass here.
Leave a comment about something embarrassing and see how much fun it is!
