Exactly!

Hi I read somewhere in this sub-forum that i am not supposed to go out with the mentality of doing/practicing pick up; that it is better to go out with the mentality of trying to connect. Today after my ''McDonald's'' shift i went to Starsbuck's for a foam and there she was: Adriana. She was slim, 1.6mts, blonde and blue eyes. ''She is a tiger, she belongs to me'' -Scarface. Adriana Interaction: I already had my foam going on and was writing on my self observation journal. I saw her sitting by herself as soon as i got there. Should have approached immediately but i didn't. Honestly i wasn't in full PUA mode i just wanted a foam, but went for her anyway. I was in laid-back-trying-to-connect mode. Saw her going to the line, so I stood up tapped her shoulder and said: -''Hi.'' Adri: -''Hi'' Arc: -''Have you ever tried the foam?'' (I need to practice on my predator look. It would have been a nice spot to apply it.) Adri: -''No'' Arc: -''What are you having?'' (Again predator look deficit) Adri: -''Just water.'' Arc: -''What are you doing?'' Adri: -''I have a reunion. How about you? What are you doing?'' Arc: -''Hmmm... Nothing. Writing.'' (Looking back i should have said: -''Talking to very beautiful woman.'') Adri: -''OK'' She paid for her water and we said good bye. I didn't feel we connect even though she asked a couple of q's. I didn't try to go for the close because of this new mentality that honestly i don't like too much. Regular old me would have asked: -''Hey would you like me to meet you here after your reunion? maybe i can buy you a cup of coffee....''(predator look) I rather keep going for this ABC methodology. Always ask if they wanna go out at the end of the interaction. What do you guys think? You don't know if you don't ask right? What if i misread them? See you next time.

It is a free choice and up to the individual yes, but he's got sexual cravings. If he wants sex he's gotta play the game of attraction and if he wants to connect with a girl properly he's gotta play the game of attraction as well. Now, if he wouldn't have sexual cravings i would say go for it, skip it. If you leave those cravings unsatisfied they will become wholes in your orange foundation. Leo says that we gotta satisfy those cravings until we get sick of them and we are able to see that they are NOT the real deal. I totally get it. But for me, from the stage i am at, money, success and having sex with hot beautiful women IS the real deal right now. Maybe later i will evolve or be enlightened or whatever. But as of right now this is where i am at. And it is cool and a good thing. Orange is not bad.

I need to post this quote from Leo: '' The upside of rolling solo is that you grow very fast, as long as you're able to do approaches. If you're going out solo and you're so scared that you don't even approach, then you're not ready for that yet. You need a wingman/friend. @Brenzo2 You mean you're in a relationship but you want to build your pickup skills at the same time? That's hard. In practice, once you get in a comfortable relationship your pickup skills will suffer. There's a trade-off. @Joel3102 Yes, it certainly is, but it's going to take much more work than you imagine at the outset. But the upside is that it will also be much more rewarding (in terms of growth) than you imagine. To really get good at pickup you need to hit it hardcore for a couple of years, approaching 5000+ people. You need to take it very seriously. A half-assed attitude will not work here. You basically need to rewire and retrain much of your mind. Attraction is extremely counter-intuitive. It will shock you. You'll be in for some rude awakening. It will be emotionally difficult. But it will grow you like crazy. If you do it, don't do it for the sex, do it for the stronger man it makes you. It can also be very fun and exciting compared to sitting at home and playing Fortnite. Doing pickup hardcore makes you feel ALIVE! It makes you feel like a hero on his journey towards manhood. I highly recommend handling this part of your life. Just don't be a douche, don't hurt women, and don't develop an ideology or identity around it. If you want to get serious about learning this skill set, you must bite the bullet and move to a large city with great nightlife and lots of hot girls. LA, NYC, Chicago, Miami, Austin, Vegas, London, etc. It's very worth it. Don't be trying to learn pickup in some redneck part of the world. You need volume to practice on. If you're not willing to relocate, you're not very serious about it. But at the same time, don't make excuses if you can't relocate immediately. Begin wherever you're at and make plan to upgrade your situation. Pickup is not just about attracting girls. Pickup is about upgrading your entire lifestyle. It's about better nutrition, better fitness, better apartment, better decor, better cloths, better haircut, better friends, better car, better everything. Transform yourself into an attractive fucking man with an awesome life such that a woman would be itching to be around you. Shed your old childish ways. Become awesome. When you become a truly awesome, valuable man, guys and girls will flock to be around you. This is not some gimmick. You are actually becoming awesome. It's a total makeover. But also don't get lost in it. Return to spirituality once you've completed that phase of your life. P.S. There are always limits to everything a human does. Don't let that stop you from being awesome. You don't need to sleep with 100 girls. You don't need to become the Michael Jordan of pickup. You just need to become decent and score a few girlfriends. Which basically any guy can do.''

It is never a good idea to skip stages. You can/should skip unhealthy manifestations like lying about you being a pro athlete. Personally i was skipping orange too. Realized it was a bad idea, and now i am trying to be the most orange being that i can possibly be. I am building an orange rock solid foundation. I think you (and me) skipping orange is just our ego trying to maintain homeostasis (resisting change and growth) It is way easier to go meditate in the woods than talk to random strangers in the street. It is easier to go into a forum and chat with like minded people about healing crystals than to go out to a club all by yourself and talk to a hot woman. Catch my drift?

Check out what Leo wrote very recently: ''The upside of rolling solo is that you grow very fast, as long as you're able to do approaches. If you're going out solo and you're so scared that you don't even approach, then you're not ready for that yet.

Keylin interaction sucked. She was very polite with her rejection. Gotta follow my intuition more, and gotta go out more. See you on the next interaction!

Yes.

I do pick up because i want a relationship and sex OFC. I don't lie when i do pick up. I haven't picked up anything yet. Am i doing pick up if i haven't picked up anything yet? Guys that do pick up for real, are masters at lying they tell girls they are pro athletes that know other pro athletes. Is like they believe their lies, it is amazing. I don't wanna be/do that. I just wanna be in the right spot, at the right time, and have the balls to go say hi to a girl i like, and hopefully that will be it. I don't think you can/should skip pick up. Also remember that from the moment you wake up until the moment you fall asleep you are manipulating everything and everybody around you, including yourself. Leo has a video about that too.

The chart is hilarious! LOL

Hi. Yesterday I descended from the Death Mountain (DM) to Little Grape Beach (LGB). I didn't enjoy it. I got my ego fed before the race by myself (over confidence) and got my ego fed later by another rider. Long story short i pushed too hard. These rides with these mini bus guys have been tougher than races. We started from DM, we where 60 riders total, it was super cold but great climate. At one point i was shivering so much i could barely ride the bike. I started in last position because i was slow at getting ready. On these organized rides there are 3 packs: First pack consist on elite guys that make podiums regularly. Middle pack consist on guys like me that ride/race but not that serious, and The Last pack pack consists of guys that only train once or twice a week max. There is at least one guide for each pack. So, from last position i started passing riders and catch up with the Mid Pack. I hanged out with them on the pavement, but on a flat section, all in a sudden my power went from 100% to 40% and every one in that pack just swooshed me by. I didn't try to catch up because the ride was just starting. But I told myself I'll see you in the forest. And I did! 3 guys took longer at the assistance check point. Orange guy that was leading the road freight train had to stand under a shade and took a short lift on the organizer's pick up truck. And finally there where a husband and a wife who where dressed exactly the same. The wife was in good shape but her husband wasn't, so she had to wait for her man and i passed them. When the micro-climates went from extreme cold to extreme hot, i got the cold sweats. I started telling people: -''I feel cold. Are you cold?'' They where like: -''No man is super hot right now, that might not be a good sign'' The wife gave me a gel caramel and then at the 2nd checkpoint i had a jelly sandwich that finished doing the trick. A lot of people got lost due to poor demarcation, myself included. I was riding with a group of 3 and THE GUIDE told one of the guys to turn right when it was supposed to be left. We rode for 3-4 kilometers but they where too slow and i passed them. After 2 more Kms i realized i was lost and went back. Reminders for an organized ride: -Ride with the guides and/or in a group. Even if that means getting out of you comfort zone by riding slower, do not try to catch up with anyone, you will need that energy for later. -It is better to develop your own pace and expect good things to happen. See you next time!

100% serious about the kid thing. I am at stage orange.

I get it: everybody is gonna regret something when they die. Is part of being human.

I am 39. No kid. Honestly i don't want kids because i am selfish. I want all my money for me, and i want all my free time for me. I am definitely seeking for more professional help. I am going to see a yellow stage doctor soon. Thanks for the replies!

Thanks. I do have a couple of writing projects, and this is going to help. Can we make this thread about quick checking our english writing?

Hi. Trip is in 2 days. -Last week i went to a bike fit specialist. He set my bike to my specific measures. I could feel the difference as soon as i sat on it. My back is more relaxed now, and i am pedaling with my whole feet now. Before i was pedaling with my toes. I have always made sure that my saddle height was ok. But what he did was something else. Money well invested. -And yesterday i went to a cardiologist. Good news my heart is perfect he says. We did an electrocardiogram. Now we gotta do an effort-electrocardiogram. To be 100% sure. Money well spent. See you next week with a full trip report. It's gonna be great!

I do not trust concentrates. You don't know who made it, you don't know if it is well made (No butane residues) Those body aches could really be due to toxic residues in your oil concentrate. Only concentrates i would trust will be from a medical dispensary.

This is excellent! Subbed.

Hi. For example I just posted this in my journal: ''I really like how i have been fine tuning all the little details for this trip.'' Looking back i should have said ''about this trip'' instead of ''for this trip'' right? Both are valid right? Which would you use CreamCat? (or anyone) ''for'' or ''about''? Arc

WOW! Just WOW!

''How can I take you seriously if you are not in a good shape?'' > You don't have to take me seriously don't worry.

Yes you are way too old. Sorry Now go and prove me wrong.

lmfao i am glad you got out of islam. Feet kissing = Cult Arc

Yes it is welcome to the club!
