Realize that your life depends on it. Days, weeks, months, years will go by before you know it & youre in your grave. It is a life or death situation, stop reading about it and just DO IT. Fuck preparation. Go out and look like a dumbass, fail, make mistakes.

You're in a spot where you think that reading pages and pages of material is going to make you more competent, and some day you will finally get to the point where youre ready cause youve read and learned so much. Im telling you it is never going to happen. You have to do this shit before its too late, the longer you wait the harder its gonna be and before you know it your gonna be stuck in a gas station making min wage at 65 still reading your books and telling yourself "tomorrow".

Set goals for yourself. Write it down and stick to it. For me, it was "I want to be able to cold approach women". So i broke down my goal into more manageable pieces. "By the end of this week, i'll say Hi to 6 random strangers and ask how their day is going" Then when i did that, i was more confident. I set a new goal "by the end of this week, ill only say hi to 6 random women". And then the next goal was to actually insert something flirty in the convo. And then it was ask for a phone number. And so on and so on. Im still working at it, but im getting better. Im actually seeing progress rather than just reading about it, and that helps keep me motivated. And the other thing that ive found is when you are actually in the shit, all the tips and tricks you read about and studied and prepared go out the window, studying can only get you maybe 10% of the way there but the actual journey and experience is 90% where self improvement comes from

" Action action action action action.

This word gets thrown around massively in business, entrepreneurship, and of course sexual strategy.

We all KNOW the word, yet it feels like it’s as misunderstood as the word “god”"
I feel like you're about to sell me a time share.

" Honestly, I really want to start taking more action. Lifting, waking up early, meditating, journaling, reading and studying are MY DEFAULT already... but I want to take more action to get the sexual life I want, and to create something for myself regardless of how small I start."
what sexual life do you want and why do you want it?

In the song "Live Like You Were Dying", the story goes that the guy finds out from a doctor that he has just a short time to live.

He then proceeds to go on all manner of adventures from skydiving to riding a bull. But it took fucking death to get him to take action.

Usually the guys that are good at action, have either been recalibrated by some major event (ex. 9/11, death of a loved one, etc.) or have a profession where taking action is a job requirement.

Your greatest challenge isn't fighting some dude. It isn't talking to some girl. Your greatest opponent is that little voice in your head. The one that can come up with 10 counterarguments on the spot to why you shouldn't go to the gym.
