Coming from the link you left, that was amazing! It goes to show two different phenomena, the power of visualization and the power of unproductive habits. While I'm out and about, I try to focus on my fundamentals, but I'm really realizing that the game is fought and won when you're alone; are your habits productive or sedentary? are you visualizing and orchestrating your thoughts, or mindlessly letting your thoughts run where ever they want to?
I sit down with myself and compare the could's with the do's:
- I could read valuable material, but I've played video games and devoured irrelevant articles
I could abstain from porn/masturbation (and let my libido skyrocket), but I've given into quick urges and watched my edge with women massively dull
I could visualize in my spare time, but I've let my mind wander unproductively
I could aggressively pursue a better position in life, but I've waded through what comes my way
It's high time I swap those. There's such an amazing world out there, and those of us who approach girls are on the frontlines of sexuality, and you can hardly hope for greatness if you're feeding your engine unproductive resources. I find myself constantly locking eyes with women, or going through a delivery interaction, and not capitalizing on the moment as soon as it presents itself (referencing the other post, that's part of why I want to cut masturbation completely, so my "killer" instinct is always on).
Habits aren't simply broken, they have to be replaced, and I'll start with visualization and affirmation in place of p/m and times I'd let my mind wander aimlessly.
Thanks man, and awesome job on that recent LR, that's the killer edge I want to have!
