This is exactly how I solved
hesitating to approach a girl
Man,
I used to mess up so many opportunities.
It was always the same.
I remember one girl while going to Uni.
She was tall, pretty and her chest was…noticeable!
I couldn’t find the courage to approach her because there was always people around and it felt creepy.
Or so I thought.
One day after class I was walking home
minding my own business
feeling the fresh air
and then
boom!
There she is.
By herself, walking towards me.
No people around, no fear about being creepy in front of others…but still, I freeze.
My mind goes crazy
“I gotta get out of here”
She smiles and even says hi when she passes by and I do say hi
but there is no chance in h3ll that I’m showing her that I’m interested
that would be too awkward
so I pretend I’m not interested and walk home.
You can bet I felt ashamed.
Since then I’ve learned that the reason it always used to feel so difficult to approach was not because I was afraid to feel creepy in front of others.
That was just a symptom.
The reason I hesitated was because I felt an inner lack that I wanted to fill up with girls.
A state which said “I’m not good enough, but if I get her then I will be”
But the problem then, was that it put such an immense pressure on me to perform.
I had to get her number, or at least a good response.
So then, it became so much easier to take the comfortable route of not doing it.
Again and again.
Now, you know what I’m talking about.
It’s nothing to feel ashamed of. Most guys never even think about learning how to cold approach.
The fact that you’re here, being interested in personal growth is a huge step.
Because let me tell you that I’m not the only one who has overcome this problem.
Thousands of guys out there are learning how to cold approach.
Because it’s needed.
The women out there wants to be approached - but in a way she feels appreciated.
In a way where you don’t approach her from lack, but instead from a place of abundance.
So here is: The Inside-Out approach.
The way you do that is by integrating your connection with your inner child.
When you were little, you abandoned this part of yourself.
At that time it felt necessary, because you needed that external approval from your parents.
But now you don’t, and the problem is that you’re stuck in this pattern.
So the way out - IS IN.
As you do it, you’ll notice that approaching women starts to feel natural and not like a chore.
You look forward to see how beautiful she is, feel the connection and even invite her out.
The whole process becomes one of flow and fun.
Take care & keep growing,
