I have been following seduction for a long time, being first introduced to it by Simple Pickup back in high school. Just watching it for entertainment but wanting to go out and do it myself, but never having the courage.

Been lurking this subreddit for a loong time as well, reading various trip reports and wanting to do it myself, but also never having the courage or mindset to go out and approach anyone really.

I did take small steps to improving myself overall and appraocing people more often and talking to people.

Making more eye contact with everyone and being positive minded.

Meditating and being aware of myself.

But even despite those things, I still couldnt approach. I was still getting anxious, I was still convincing myself not to approach.

And then somone reccomended the book "How to Unf**k Yourself" and after reading that book It clicked.

Sometimes people are just like that, needed one specific book,post,article to speak to them and make it all work out.

I've now dived completly into my hobbies and intrests and am loving every second of it.

I haven't changed anything other then learning to love myself.

I have no problem talking to anyone now, no more anxiety, no more voice in my head being negative.

I have more courage, people see me as confident now. I had the courage to tell my boss he was disrespecting me and not valueing my work where as before I would have sat down and taken it and hated my life.

​

To sum up, dive into what makes you, you. And be patient with yourself
