Hey there everyone

I'm 19 years old and located in Townsville which is in Queensland, Australia. Like many people, I got into "The Game" by reading the book with the same title written by Neil Strauss although that was quite a while ago, it wasn't until just recently that I decided I needed change in my life.

I've never been someone thats hugely struggled with women, so thats not why I'm here. I know I'm pretty good to talk to and I don't think I'm bad looking, however for me, getting lucky quite literally as its name would suggest, down to luck... or excessive amounts of alcohol... And plus some of the girls I've been with, I know I can do better.
But now I'm tired of going out weekend after weekend, seeing girls that are absolutely stunning and thinking that for someone like me that they are out of reach, because I know the only thing holding my back is myself.

As far as goals go; The first thing I think I need to do is get over a huge problem I think I have with approach anxiety, even just before, I was at the supermarket and I couldn't even muster the words "How was your weekend?" to the girl behind the checkout. Once I've taken care of that I also want to try avoiding sticking to routines that are set in stone, by applying myself more to learning the background knowledge which I can use and adapt to a situation, although I certainly intend on keeping an open mind and honestly, I'll probably just use whatever works. I haven't been reading up on techniques for long, but even just for the short amount of time I've been trying things that I've read about on here, I've already noticed a vast improvement.

Oh, A little background about me; I'm into playing guitar, rock climbing, skydiving when I can afford it and I have somewhat of an addiction to speed which is mostly fed by my car and bike. (Oh but secretly I'm a nerd at heart)

Sorry to ramble on in this post for so long, but I have a feeling that I've more written this for myself, I think that I will be coming back to read over it quite often to check my progress, and remind myself of the goals I have at least initially set for myself.

But anyway guys I'm glad I've found this online community, and I certainly hope to contribute here and one day become a "not so" average frustrated chump
