Slay the dragon that holds back your potential.

Everybody was driven to this board for one reason or another. I’ve noticed that many were motivated by a someone who broke their hearts. They came here to try to figure out why they could not return their affections; if there was anything that they can do. Many times, it was simply a situation were nothing can really be done – she had already driven you to the LJBF zone or simply forgotten.

And with time, many things can happen. You could either improve or stay stagnant and simply wish that you can improve.

Wishing will not help. Reading alone will amount to nothing as well. Action needs to be taken! You must apply what you have learned to real life situations. Reading about dancing will never teach you the art – it is by going to dance that you will actually develop the skills.

With women, it’s the same. If you’re reading this and wondering where I’m going with this, its to the roots of being a DJ.

About 10 months ago, I was almost clueless when it came to women. I met a girl in a class during that time – she was special. I had already discovered this site – but I just read the tips section and lurked around without posting much. I tried applying what I learned from here to that girl, and seemed to work! I was impressed at the information possesed here.

Needless to say, I lacked something that didn’t allow me to close the deal. I had her giving me the hints but I couldn’t grab my b@lls and ask her out. I was still a wuss.

I remember getting frustrated with this situation and trying to get some help. I got a screen name and started posting. I got her number, I had a chance.

I was still a wuss. I could not convince myself that she would reciprocate my advances if I called. I lacked the confidence to simply ask her out for a date. Sure, its simple, right? Not then.

Now, I can say that it is simple and not much of a big deal. I can go up to an attractive girl, strike up an interesting conversation, get her number, give her a call, and get a date.

I cant imagine myself not knowing what I know now – but then I remember that girl that I thought was that special to drive me here to improve. I thought that if I could only show her that I’m better now.

Even with all of the success I have had, still felt haunted by that one case, that I still distinctly remember. I date often but still have that lurking in my mind – that I’m still that guy that came here. I’m not, if you look at the timetable, you’d know. So why was I still thinking that what I’ve done is not sufficient?

Because i hadn't conquered my past!

I decided to finally slay the dragon rooting in its cave. It was time that I become the man that I wish I was at the time that I wished I was. I got the number of the girl that still haunts me, called her and gave her what I got.

She was surprised to hear from me. It was a pleasant conversation, laughing and having a good time with each other. I did that then but what I did next, was different. I asked her out on a date. If she said yes, then I can’t complain. If she said no, I still fulfilled my goal. I still faced the fear that drove me here in the first place.

We have a date for next Sunday.

I’m compelled to tell you guys here my success story – the ultimate success. My haunted past haunts me no longer for I have done what I couldn’t do before. I have proved to her that I am a different man; more importantly, I have proven it to myself. If had allowed it to continue lingering without any action, I would be held back. Conquering my past prevents any other hindering thoughts for later on. Success would not mean much because i would still have to deal with my past - i wasnt always like this!

On the road to becoming the true DJ that you’ve set yourself out to be, fight your demons. If you conquer your past, then you’ve conquered your future. Do not let the past hold you back from your real potential. If your past is at ease, and your regrets come to terms with your present, you will realize your potential in the future

Yes! good post, but I think that these obsticles that need to be overcome involve becoming confortable in any situation. What I mean by this is that you have to prevent people from stopping you from being yourself. Know what I'm sayin...

Exactly USSOCOM!

Its not about going back to your past, its about learning to overcome it by visiting what brought you here in the first place. Im not saying that you should try to win back that girl that broke your heart (or something foolish like that) but to do what you couldnt do before.

There are a number of ways of doing this, and it depends on what it is that prevents you from being even better.

If you think that you are pretty good as it is, theres probably a lot more room for improvement. At least, thats what i found. After deciding to call this girl up. I suddenly had MUCH more confidence than i did before. I thought i was well off before, but now, i feel much more at ease when doing things.

This girl was the only girl i couldnt decide to call. I call girls like whatever (i mean, its just a phone call) but she was more like a flash back to my past.

If youre not comfortable with your past, then odds are that it will not be good for improvement. Its all about proving things to yourself to let go of bad doubts
