Patience

The effects are wonderful. I am having an on day. Batman is getting back. However, I need to keep that old ego in check. Rome was not built in a day and the newfound magnetism needs a chance to work outself in life. In other words, it takes more than 2 weeks to see real conclusive benefits. But let me back up. I get too outcome-oriented in life. "If I do this, then that person will react this way." Recipe for frustration and disaster. That may be an even more important note to make. I have a potential date or two flake on me, and I play it smiley but inside I get very dissapointed. I have to tell myself, hey- you weren't even in the game two years ago! Now you are at least getting feedback. It happens, be glad. The goal for me is to imporve life in general, not just with women. That I believe is the right attitude.

Great insights. Especially about be dependent on other people's reactions. The "No More Mr. Nice Guy" material focuses on that too. The need for external validation is a problem. When we learn to validate ourselves, the internalized shame starts to go away. Happy birthday by the way.

All life is sorrowful and the world is an ever burning fire, so enjoy the stately dance of the mystic bliss beyond pain, for that is at the heart of every mythic rite.
