I'm a white attorney who is a dating coach so you wouldn't think I'd have much street wisdom to share, but it is actually a source of some of the most valuable lessons I've learned. The seduction community doesn't really have many "street" voices, which is a shame because my time in the projects and with the people there taught me when and why to keep my mouth shut, how to observe others critically, how to protect myself, and more.

Here are a few small slices of wisdom:

Maybe life was gonna beat me, that's ok, but how was I going to beat myself?

Sometimes you have to take an L, but why the fuck would you give one to yourself?

Defiance in the face of adversity until it was un-overcomeable, then acceptance and move on.

You better fucking fight, but if there's no point, then get the fuck over it and move the fuck on with your shit.

Its water and bread and a tv with a few channels and late night with bad kids running around hardcore bad mother fuckers because at 8 they don't feel like they have a future already so how do they give a fuck.

This is why we have to seize the moment because other people don't even feel like they have a future to seize and you have the entire world in front of you and you're worried about approaching a female to say hello? A lost generation with the pain of poverty and emotional devastation and a constant aggression and no hope. And you're worried because all the infinite possibilities of your future are somewhat made more difficult by an emotional issue you had with a parent at age 9?

The fuck is wrong with you?

Own your life, own yourself, man up, process your trauma, believe in yourself, and keep it moving.

And always keep it 100 - because real recognize real and you need to see you when you look in the mirror and see yourself reflected in the eyes of other people. If they can see you but you cant see yourself its a problem. And if you're fronting you're so weak you might as well start over back at raw and make moves from there.
