Energy Approach
To approach a woman when you’re nervous takes a lot of willpower because you’re forcing yourself to do something that you’re worried is going to be painful. If you do that six times in a row, your willpower’s going to be completely depleted. You need to replenish your energy reserves.
Make sure you get plenty of low GI wholegrain carbs ahead of time and keep yourself replenished as you go because if you don’t you’re just going to burn out.
You’re making yourself do things you don’t want to do. It’s exhausting. I know about this intimately because working from home, at any moment, there are ten thousand different ways I could distract myself from work. So all day, it’s me saying “No I need to concentrate on work, on what i’m doing here right now.”
There’s a great quote from Lombardi: “Fatigue makes cowards of us all.”
To have courage to do the things that you’re afraid to do, if you’re tired, it’s just impossible. You’re just not going to be able to do it. You need energy.
As you push through this gets easier. The idea of approaching women is not so scary anymore. You don’t have to will yourself to do it as much any more. And because it’s easier, you don’t get as tired. This part of improving yourself is the hardest, but you have to push through.
