First day of bootcamp = FAIL

[teb]

Hey all just did my first day of week one of the dj bootcamp pdf (establish eye contact and say hi to fifty strangers). Well only about 10% of the people I tried making eye contact with would actually look and most of those would look away really quick, especially the girls :-/ (why, WHYYY?) (this was at college). I think I got in two or three hellos in all today and whats weird is they were all black people (maybe blacks are more confident??? I'm a white guy btw.) So has anyone done bc and/or have any tips for me on getting people to notice you more? also how do you say hello to people in places that are more crowded without it feeling awkward??

most people will, in general, avoid contact with you if they are in every day situations. Also, saying something to someone in a random place doesn't seem natural so if they aren't making eye contact, they probably assume you are talking to someone else or are on the phone. Point is you can't take it too personally.

I'm not taking it personally at all in fact it doesn't even bother me, but I really am wondering how I'm going to get to all 50 hi's by next friday

you will be very un-calibrated at the moment, over time this will get better....

over time your results will get better, just dont be outcome dependent with this.... the less OD you are the less 'desperate' sub communications you give out = more chill and relaxed
