Should I approach her or not?

Hey man,

I almost didn’t write this.

Not because I didn’t want to,
but because I started overthinking it.

Which is ironic, because that’s exactly the point of this email.

Yesterday I was out in nature with a friend.
Sun out. Calm day. We took a small dose of mushrooms.

On the way back, I saw a girl and asked her for directions.

That part was easy — I wasn’t thinking.

She helped me, and only then I noticed how cute she actually was.

That’s when my mind kicked in.

“You only asked for directions.”
“Don’t be weird.”
“You’re kind of sneaking your way in now.”

In other words: I almost thought my way out of the moment.

Then she said she was walking the same way.

I took that as an invitation.

We walked. We talked. We flirted a bit.
We exchanged Instagrams.

Nothing crazy.

But here’s the lesson:

The approach was easy because I acted before thinking.
The danger came the moment I started analyzing.

So here are two things I want you to remember when you leave the house:

1) Trust the first impulse.
The longer you doubt it, the more tension and negative energy you attach to it — and eventually you won’t act at all.

2) Try — even if you fail.
It’s cooler to tell your friends,
“Yeah, I got rejected yesterday,”
than
“I saw this girl and couldn’t do it.”

The first one turns into a laugh and a pat on the shoulder.
The second one turns into a therapy session.

And if you don’t have people who support you through rejection, desire, and fear — that’s exactly why I created The Worthy Man community.

We have two calls every week:

• One for sharing honestly and setting real commitments

• One for practicing not abandoning yourself when desire, fear, or rejection shows up

If that sounds interesting — or if you have questions — just reply to this email.

I personally read and answer them
(at least until I get a dog and he takes over customer support).

Stay grounded,
Edin
