Earlier today, I was in this great mood. We went to Whole Foods, and as I was walking in the automatic door, this cute woman starts to go in at the same time. I said, “After you,” and she just looked down at the floor, didn’t smile or anything, and walked in and away.

Here’s something really interesting that just happened.

So Taras was just going through his pictures on his camera. He got to a picture of himself and this woman, handed his camera to Steve, and said, “Look, man, she’s really hot,” and then said, “But I really fucked it up with her.”

Today i am going to turn over the blog to one of my coaches.

Everybody meet Khiem.

Most of you guys who’ve read the blog already know what David feels about Pickup Artists and their methods. He doesn’t believe in them.

Whenever I end a conversation – no matter with whom it is, from a woman I met at a party to the person bagging my groceries at Whole Foods – I always say to them, “See you soon.”

Just a quick blog today. Some thing that all of you should be doing everyday….wait it is something you all day everyday!!

So you’re at a party and you lock into “the woman.” You’ve figured out which woman is the one that you really want to get to know.

You guys converse for a few minutes, and then she walks away. And after this, you stop enjoying yourself because all you’re thinking about is “Where is she right now? Is she coming back?”

Coaching is not a miracle. There is no miracle out there. Miracle drugs, diets and solutions are really just quick-fix illusions, like that grilled cheese sandwich in 2004 that had the image of the Virgin Mary burned into it. Someone paid $28,000 on eBay for that! Seriously, I’m not making this shit up! (link the last two words of this sentence with http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4034787.stm)

The point of life is realizing every single day that life itself is actually a miracle.

To get really Zen in your thinking, you need to accept everything that comes into your life and learn from the lessons you are presented with. You need to embrace those lessons and move forward.

It’s important to realize that when you receive coaching of any kind – whether it is a dating bootcamp or coaching on a physical sport – you have to practice.

I get email practically every day from people who are doing online dating who tell me that they do not have trouble making what seem to be good connections with people online, but who have very little success once they meet those people in person.

This is an issue surrounding online dating that does not get discussed all that often, however, it is important to talk about because you want to minimize the amount of time you spend talking online to people with whom you will not connect in real life.
