Now you need to picture what “in your head” sounds like, because technically you’re not really walking around inside of your own head. If you were, you’d just be this gigantic round thing rolling around on the ground like a bowling ball at all times. If you were really in your head, you would just be a rolly poly head — nothing more, nothing less.

So the term “in your head” is really just your way of saying, “I want to go do this, but I’m worried about x, y and z.” If you think about it, though, the principles of meeting people are very simple.

You observe what they’re doing. You react to what they’re doing so you can really connect to their world (and so you don’t bring them into a whole new world when you’re experiencing something else). Then you speak with authority, playfulness and confidence. It’s really very, very simple.

What makes it so difficult is the fear that’s associated with it. You decide at that present moment whether to do it or not. If you don’t do it, what happens is you go into what people call “getting into my head” (which means that you’re finding an excuse not to do it at that moment).

Technically it’s the same principles over and over again — it really is. I’ve been teaching this a long time, and it’s the same principle over and over again. I taught myself those same principles over and over again until I got it right.

So when you’re in your head, what that really means is that you just don’t want to try at that moment. You’re too afraid to give it a whirl, because you’re too caught up with seeking approval.

You really and truly believe that if this doesn’t work out, things are going to be really bad for you that day (or whatever it might be based on stuff in the past). Past programming could be from the way your parents taught you, the way kids teased you in high school, whatever it was.

You need to remember that it’s all in the past. If I were living in the past and I saw a woman, I might throw my rattle at her and drool. It all depends on how far back in the past I really want to go. I might just give her some Wacky Packs like I did in the fifth grade, or I might offer her a couple pieces of Bazooka gum. It depends on how far in the past I want to go. If I want to go back to the high school days, I might ask her to borrow a pen even though she’s in the middle of Starbucks drinking coffee.

All kidding aside, going back into the past is another way for you not to try. It’s just an excuse. You think, “Well, this failed me 23½ years ago, so I’m not going to do it now. I don’t want to do it now because if it fails, then I’m going to be a total failure because I’m giving all my power away to this person I don’t even know.”

There is no such thing as failure in life. There really isn’t.

If a professional football player plays in a game and the team loses, did he fail? No, he tried his hardest and they didn’t win, but there will be another day.

An investment banker makes the wrong investment. Did he fail? No, he just made the wrong choice and it didn’t work out. A stock trader trades a stock and it goes the wrong direction. Is he a failure? No, it just didn’t go the way he thought it was going to go.

In life, if everybody quit as often in other areas of their life as they do about approaching women, they’d be broke and homeless and living on the side of the road. They would be holding up a sign saying, “I’m a quitter. i can’t afford to pay my bills. Can you please give me some money?”

So getting into your head is just your safety zone. It’s you basically saying to yourself, “I’m much more comfortable not trying than trying.”

Oh and one last thing.

I go more in depth about how to get rid of your monkey chatter in my Men’s “What’s Your Excuse?” program

This is such a common issue and such a big problem for so many guys, that I wanted to address it here in the blog. Monkey chatter is something you can conquer.

First, you have to really get deep with yourself. You have to make a list of everything those voices in your head say to you.

Write them all down. In fact, grab a piece of paper or get on your computer right now, even before you finish reading this blog and get them all down.

As you’re writing, answer these questions. What do the voices say? How do those voices make you feel? Write all of that down.

Second, I want you to go in front of a mirror and say out loud what those voices do to you. I want you to say it over and over again until you smile, laugh, crack up and just unwind.

I want you to read it out loud in front of a mirror every day, because this will eventually get you to see that those voices are just the fears and excuses behind which you are hiding. You’ll see the monkey chatter for what it is: crazy talk.

Now don’t get me wrong. We’ve all had monkey chatter in our heads at one time or another, and we’ve all hid behind those fears and excuses.

Seeing yourself do it in the mirror, however, will get you to remain in the moment when you’re in those situations where the monkey chatter might get to you. Imagine you are standing there thinking about approaching and talking to a beautiful woman you see. Instead of hearing the monkey chatter in your head, you will see yourself speaking those words you said to yourself in the mirror.

You will start smiling and laughing and the whole interaction with that woman will change. The whole energy of that interaction will be different. You’ll start feeling better about yourself, better about the moment and you’ll stop taking yourself so seriously.

That’s one thing that I found worked for me. Why don’t you give it a try and see how it works for you.

You guys have labeled all these things in so many different and creative ways, from monkey chatter to approach anxiety. I mean, if you Google “fear,” it is amazing how many different versions of it will pop up in the search results.

What I am about to share with you in today’s podcast is going to blow you away. I know that every week I tell you that the podcast is the most powerful one ever, but that is because every week I come up with something more powerful than the week before.

In this podcast, I am going to tell you why there are only two emotions in this world: one is love and the other is fear. Hate is fear. Approach anxiety is fear.

Love and fear really are the only two emotions, and in this podcast I explain to you how to really embrace loving everything and fearing nothing. Click here to listen now:
