Now before we get back into the swing of things, If you are just joining us, I have set out to create three lengthy posts to aid you on your University self, whether that means redefining who you are, just an all round experience or wanting to be a better person. University has been one of the greatest milestones of my life. It made me realize who i was and who i wanted to be, gave me an incredible thirst for knowledge, and let me do what i was passionate about. It is the gateway into understanding who, what, when, where and why.

So welcome back to another episode of, being better than everyone else! Okay that sounds a bit douchey. But does it have to? Why does your own self-approval matter to the rest of the world. It doesn't and that is the magic, it gives you a drive to make it true that leads you onwards to excellence.

Hi, I'm RationalPUA, your host for the evening. I left you last time with the core attributes of game, why what you say values and how you react to someone isn't about their accomplishments or features, but rather how you perceive it. Tonight we will be talking about you, your conscious, and why your fortunate damsels will respond to you without them even realizing.

So young wayfarers why do we get approach anxiety or AA? Many of you, like me, suffered from a low self-esteem growing up and sometimes is still triggered occasionally. Its Summer and i came for a short visit to my home town. My chest clenched and i feared meeting people i had grown up with because i thought i would revert back to what i once was. However due to my learnings, i easily worked over it and showcased what i had become, especially to those who knew me well all those years ago. When i came to university, I used to find that the people i talk to on a regular basis the hardest people to converse with. Not because i couldn't keep up a fluid conversation, but because i have to see them over and over again, my mask would have to keep reappearing. They had no need to know about who i used to be, i was redefining who i am. But the brilliant thing about this "mask" was as you kept going along with it, It became a part of you. RationalPUA, isn't changing who you are a bad thing though? No, not for a second. Remember the cheesy quote "Just be who you are", i say drill that saying a new asshole, everyone has features no one likes, become the better you. "Be the best you can be!". On my ponderings, it hit me. The "Best" in that quote is subjective. Being the "Best" you can be is whatever you deem it to be. Is your best to be a mildly successful person, or to be the fucking don of all living creatures. Now of course, back to AA. Why does it hit? To keep it simple, its because either you feel you are worthless, or you think the target is not your standards. It comes down to doubt. I know it is neigh impossible to not doubt yourself, but try to remove it from your day to day life. Try this technique out. If you cant choose between two choices, flip a coin. Whichever side you want it to be whilst its in the air is the choice you always wanted. Your gut instinct. Your instinct has always been a friend. Trust it. When you want to approach, its because your instinct tells you to. Its you yourself that holding you back. You will make excuses "Oh shes with someone", "Shes busy", "I can wait". Those who make excuses never truly succeed for they are not driven. If i told you to eat something, you would. If i told you to approach, you would hesitate. You think you have something to lose if it all goes bad. Humiliation, loss of dignity. But the fact is, you really have nothing to lose. Nobody remembers anything uninteresting for more than 10 minutes.

That is why you should make yourself interesting."If a picture is worth a thousand words, Then experience must be priceless." One of my favorite modern quotes. Why? Because it is very true. When i came into university, i set a goal for myself. Go out as much as possible, and never refuse an opportunity on any grounds other than work. If you are tired, Fuck it. Every day only comes by once, make the most of it. on a 9 month uni year, I'm pretty sure i went out for a full 8. I even traveled all around the country for the slightest of reasons (I went to a different city just for a House Party.) Heroes of old are always spoken through legends, and what happens if you just come across yours by accident? Every night will be a good night as long as you aim to have fun, and as always, there will always be women out and about. Are you interested in photography or literature? Join a club! As "Uncool" as they may be, remember, the value people gain come from your approval. I'm a massive film geek, I'm sure the time i spent with like minded people were a lot more benefiting than following a crowd. This is because everything i did, became a story to tell, making me Interesting! Never seclude yourself to a group, as i have stated, the best thing you can have is many many friends, abundance is the key. Everyone wants to be the friend of that guy who knows everyone. Why? Because he has the approval from a whole range of people, not just you and your friends. I have been asked countless times, how do you know so many people, how are you friends with them? The thing is, you cant wait for everyone to come to you, you HAVE to and i mean HAVE TO go talk to them. You cant wait for an opportunity to fall onto your lap, you have to create opportunity so he does your bidding. Someone invite you to a party? Go to it, even if you only know the inviter, you will probably end up knowing another twenty or thirty by the end of the night. Sure you will have your core group which you hang out with on a daily basis, but make time for everyone.

Now obviously, everyone is going to ask, what gives you that certain edge over everyone else. What can i do to be better than the rest?

  • Hygiene

  • Style

Now that may be obvious, but you may be surprised to find that it is a MASSIVE advantage at university. Many people don't have time for regular showers if they have a busy schedule. Make time for it. I became notorious for take long showers in the morning and before we went out. It was the butt of a few jokes, but of course the jokes on them. The countless compliments of me smelling great outweighs the "Other activities" people think i do whilst I'm taking showers. And of course Style. University students still tend to dress as they did in High school. Tone it up a bit lads, Pump out those form fitting wear, now is not the time to wear baggy stuff, you've outgrown them all. Get out some blazers, Shirts, maybe a tie or two. Personally i don't like hats, but if it works, it works. Peacocking is massive here. Especially when you aren't even wearing normal clothing. Items such as morphsuits, animal outfits and other fancy dress are extremely beneficial. As Uni students, everyone just wants to have fun. What is better than taking the piss of a night out by just messing about? You will be talked about, and people will come to talk to you. Hygiene and Style are two weapons you want to hold on to, you don't need to be good looking, but you need to look good.

And thus comes close to another chapter on understanding yourself. Being a person that is idolized is like a super power. You can say the right things, you can act in a way which appeals to everyone, but best of all, people will like you for who you are. You wont be using shady skills or force a person into liking you. They will because they choose to. With great power comes great responsibility.

Homework - Try to experience something new every day. I ate octopus the other day just to say i have.

If you have any questions feel free to ask/PM, Next post will be on 20/8/2012

May the force be with you.
