Dealing with Failure: An Important Learning Tool
In "What’s the Difference Between a Lover and a Loser?", Troy asked a question I've been seeing a lot on here lately regarding dealing with failure:
“Also chase id love to see an article on how to see failure as not bad, to love the plateau and not let setbacks stop us from pushing the times of doubt and uncertainty. Thanks and im looking for that when you can do it and it interests you as a topic for a post. The reason is because i see it in myself and almost every girls chase reader of not accepting that they will make mistakes and it makes me think. I think that if you could write on this that us readers us readers would accept failure especially beginners as essential, then every one of us would stop beating up our selves when we lose a girl and make mistakes, and then you may not need to ever be getting complaints again. then life changes. It is great to try our best but no one is perfect and we will mess up. thanks for helping and reading.”
We touched on failure and defeat a good bit already in "How to Master Anything", and I just talked about it a bit more recently in my interview with ITHP; today, I want to go a little more in-depth.
So, how does one deal with failure - especially social failure, the kind you must endure when learning to improve with women? Failure that's public; failure that's biting; and failure that cuts right to the quick of one's ego and self-esteem?
And make no mistake about it, you will take a beating to your sense of self when you set out to improve your prospects socially and romantically. There's simply no other way to get better with people than by trying and failing with people - again and again and again.
It takes a certain kind of courage - and a certain attitude about dealing with failure.


This post has a very long time coming. I can’t count how
many
readers and forum members have asked about a piece on black guys having
sex with and dating white girls. Well, finally… 


On a particularly long day, after an 8 hour drive home
from Northern
Wisconsin on vacation, I was feeling tired, and the day’s events had
hit
me.

As a
follow-up to yesterday's article, "
We
get comments and questions on here every so often where I see
guys saying they think girls are still in love with them, then
detailing behavior that makes it clear the girl is most assuredly not
anywhere 

When you
enter
a club or a mall or a party and you see strangers
that you don’t know, dressed well and talking to people, it is easy to
assume that they know something or have something you do not. These
people operating on that “high profile” aren’t very likely to come up
and talk to you, so it can be a huge shock if and when they do.
