I approached her without needing anything
and here is how you do it
Hey Mr!
This is Edin speaking, and we have something in common.
We both love girls!
I just met one,
Me: “Hey”
Her: “Hey”
Me: “We just had a moment of looking at each other, so I wanted to come”
Her: “That’s nice, but I have a boyfriend”
Me: “Yeah, I also have a girlfriend, but this is a good moment”
Her: “It is! Where are you from?”
I’m out running
It’s dark, and I would rather stay at home, but this week I created a little competition with my students and we have different quests we complete
One of them is called "The Journey” and it’s about going on a little journey where you invest at least 60 minutes to explore something new
That’s why, despite feeling tired, I’m out running exploring the neighborhood in the evening
Following my intuition,
I run around and see new places I never seen before
particularly this one hill, where I’m running up, and as it never seems to stop, I get to work my legs
I get to the top, but my mind tells me to keep pushing
Having the feeling that it’s not worth it to go longer, I discover something deep
It’s the same reason why people dislike David Goggins
It’s the
“I hate myself and that’s why I have to push harder”
You know what I mean right?
Doing the cold shower just because you don’t feel good enough if you don’t do it
It’s not worth it you see
because yes, you’re disciplined, but it doesn’t get you closer to your goal
which is to release attachments for validation
primarly from girls yes, but it all starts with yourself.
If you NEED to get X and Y done to feel good about yourself, you will also translate that into NEEDING X or Y reaction from the girl to feel good
so when you approach her and she says she has a boyfriend or whatever else that is not what you expected or wanted to happen
then your vibe crashes and you feel bad about it.
Start by de-attaching yourself from external results,
and you will see how Life starts to flow differently.
Peace brother,
Edin
