DAY 6----------------------------------------------------------

CHALLENGE: Compliment 4 women. 2 should be strangers.

COMPLETION: 4/4

STATUS: Completed (kind of)

# of ATTEMPTS: 3

NOTES: This day didn't come as much of an intimidation to me. I actually compliment girls I know every once in a while, I don't really have a problem with it. With girls I don't know it's a different story. I easily complimented four women I know, but only 1 that I didn't know. I'm going to give myself the benefit of the doubt and let it slide this time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DAY 7

CHALLENGE: Create an opener and use it on at least 3 women / groups of women.

COMPLETION: 1/3

STATUS: Failed

# of ATTEMPTS: 1

NOTES: I really let myself down here. I keep telling myself that today will be the day that I conquer AA, but it never is. It always gets to me. I approached one group with an opener I thought of:

ME: Did you guys ever watch Bert & Ernie?

THEM: Yeah!

ME: Do you think they're actually gay?

THEM: Yeah / I don't know / maybe...

Blah blah blah.

It got them talking at least, and it counts as an opener. I used it on one group, but the rest of the times I was going to approach I got AA by overthinking it. I'll complete this assignment tomorrow, successfully.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

WHAT I LEARNED:

Don't over think things. Your conscious mind is your enemy when approaching, at least when you are going in for the approach. On you're way to the group, don't be thinking about what is going to happen, think about success and how alpha you are. Everyone wants to talk to you, why not give them the opportunity to see how great you are.
Fear and regret are the only results of convincing yourself not to approach. Just fucking do it and get it over with - you will NOT regret it.
