Great post, man. Kudos.

An excellent post. Thank you.

One way to approach this issue that might be helpful is to try to see it as a form of procrastination. I am somewhat of a perfectionist, but I think a great deal of it stems from or is related to procrastination. The kind of excessive planning that you are describing is often a way for us to...

My advice to you - take action. Ask yourself - what kind of person do I want to be? What are some things I want to do with my life? Afterwards, figure out exactly how you can work towards those goals, and begin the work in earnest. It may be wobbly baby steps at first, but any step you take...

Great article. There's some other awesome articles on that website, too.

Self-Reflection is what brings most of us here. It's not just an initial step, though - it's something you should probably be doing frequently if you want to improve. A great method of self-reflection that is becoming routine for me is journaling, and I encourage all of you to try it out...

We all want to feel like we are in control. It is what drives many of us to this website. There are a couple of things about control that this place has taught me - you've probably seen this before in some form or another, but the statements bear repeating. I still struggle with these two...

That's exactly what I am saying, though - don't give up on your dreams, give up on the negative thinking and the "I can't do it" mentality. That's what I was trying to convey, but I guess it didn't come across as clearly as I intended.:o

And here I sit. Alone - no women. There are plenty I know that I'd bang - and many of them are within my grasp. And yet I'm alone, and the only person I should be angry at is myself. If there is one vital tidbit of knowledge that this website has either taught me or reinforced, it is that...

I think this huge discomfort you're feeling is the old habit of laziness that's trying to assert control. I struggle with this all the time, because I've allowed myself to become lazy over the past year or so. Pushing on even though you feel "drained of energy" is the difference between a...

Some things I've learned about motivation and willing yourself to change: Changing your life, and willing your life to change is a day-to-day activity. Not even day-to-day, moment-to-moment. It's so easy to think of a change in lifestyle as a profound moment, where "everything from now on...

Bump. A question for you, Interceptor - which disciplines of martial arts use these Bushido codes as foundations of their teachings - is it all of them, or is this knowledge more specific to certain types of martial arts?

Please read my response a little more carefully. I saw Interceptor's post in her thread (and thought it was helpful), but that's not what I was referring to. I was talking about this, which is one of the best posts I've ever read on this forum. Listen, I have nothing against the women here...

I'm glad to find that I'm not the only one who feels this way...and I'm also glad that someone posted this before I did. On the Mature Man board, there are currently two threads authored by female posters, each asking some sort of advice about men from the men here. This makes no sense to me...

She probably would have told you you're a poor student of French, considering that "Voulez-vous chercher avec moi?" means "Would you like to seek with me?" I think what you're looking for is "Voulez-vous coucher avec moi?" or even better, "Tu veux coucher avec moi?" (it's less formal)...

3-15-08 I've really let myself down these past few days. I did get things accomplished, but not as much as I had hoped. There were periods of laziness and hours wasted. Some of the stuff that did get done: Went to class Thursday and Friday Wrote some e-mails that I'd been putting off...

This is incredible stuff - thank you so much, Interceptor, for this post. I got to the end and just had the urge to ask how - how are we to walk this road? It can seem so difficult to stay tuned in to that deeper sense of self in day-to-day existence, the daily grind. But I know that the...

There exists one thing, one simple concept, that you absolutely must possess in order to be a self-actualized DJ. If you do not have this thing, then you will never be DJ, no matter how much "****y/funny," "deep inner game," "apocalypse openers," or panty-melting techniques you have. It is the...

I'm 21, and I listen to Rainbow - they rock. I've been meaning to get my hands on a copy of their self-titled debut for a while now, but I've got "Rising," and it kicks ass.

Huffman, I think that really comes down to knowing yourself, your own situation, and what you're capable of. I, personally, haven't entirely let go of everything AFC - my job tends to bring out AFC tendencies, but I didn't quit, because right now I think it would be a step backwards for me to...
