If you feel like giving up on dating

Hey man,

Are you feeling frustrated with dating and at the brink of giving up?

Like you’ve tried everything, and there is not energy within you do manage it?

I get you

It can feel like that

Recently I’m feeling this way about business, and it’s the same doubts that I had when it came to meeting women.

“Can I do this?”
“Is it worth it?”
“Should I just quit?”

There seems to be a pattern, so let me share with you how I overcame the dating doubts and how I intend to overcome the business doubts.

One Saturday (much like this one)

I’m going home from a run.

At the time I’ve been approaching women for a while, but not gotten to the place where I’m naturally meeting and attracting them yet.

I see a beautiful girl, think that I wanna meet her, go up, but she quickly rejects me.

Then I try approaching another, but she says thank you and leaves.

I go up to a third one, and…she just walks past me.

At this moment, my confidence is at a zero.

I’ve shrunk myself down and my anxiety is now through the roof.

I see another girl walk past and I could not muster up the courage.

I felt frustrated and thought “why am I even doing this?”

Then, as I was asking the question, I received the answer (Ask and you shall receive)

I think back to the moments I felt alone and lonely, always going to bed by myself

seeing other guys have girls

and thinking that it must be possible for me too.

Suddenly I feel the fire rise, my anxiety melt away and like a Phoenix coming up from the ashes (we’re getting dramatic now) I feel the reason for why I’m approaching women.

My state is totally different now.

I see a cute girl

Feel the fear, take a deep breath and go up

She loves it and we exchange numbers.

So, to feel encouraged again, you need to find your why.

This is what will spark up your energy and get you through these moments where you don’t feel like moving forward.

So sit down, and ask yourself this either on paper or just in your mind

“Why do I want to succeed with dating?”

and feel the emotions that come up

go deep

take it all in, embrace and let yourself be marinated by it.

And when fear comes up, know that you are on the right way.

Because you can only be courageous when fear is present.

And it’s when you’re courageous that you’re living from empowerment.

Stay empowered,

Edin
