its alright....he is exactly like me, a very analytical thinker. We like to get everything down to an exact science. When, in actuality, you have to be natural. Thats the part of me i try to improve every day. Being natural and not thinking too much. But he needs to learn techniques and all that jazz before he can start being natural.
Totally understood... in a very real sense, we ALL are relatively analytical in this field we call Pick-Up. I read a book called "Psycho-Cybernetics" by Dr. Maxwell Maltz (a gem of a book if you're studying the power of self-image.) and he made the analogy of how underwater guided missiles actually reach their target.
Now, initially, when a submarine zeroes in on it's intended target, they pretty much get a good frame of where that target is - distance, speed, angle, water current, etc. Be it 50 meters or 500 meters away, this is standard procedure.
Ready, aim, fire...
As the missile launches, it encounters a ton of different distractions that actually veer it away from it's target. This may include miscalculated current speeds, change of direction from the target, even speed.
Had the guided target STILL went on it's INTENDED path, it is a sure shot from 20 meters upon launch, that the target will NOT be hit.
But that's why we call it a GUIDED missile.
The missile has a special device that enables it to correct it's course EN-ROUTE to it's target. Every 10 or so meters of travel, it receives a signal via satellite that automatically helps it correct it's course, to adjust to the new information it's receiving from the intended target.
Doing so, this guided missile is 90% more accurate in it's trajectory, in LARGE part because it KEPT ON MOVING.
Case in point?
LAUNCH. KEEP MOVING. You CAN'T hit your target if you just shoot from the submarine, without guidance.
Do something. The beauty of your mind is, you'll know exactly where you might've messed up, because you can recall the actions you've taken in any situation. If you keep taking action, YOUR SATELLITE (fellow Don Juans), will help you correct your course with proper feedback. But it's damn near IMPOSSIBLE to get you to GET IT, just by aiming from the submarine. Because the truth is, you're going to HAVE TO get negative feedback, only so that your course can be corrected. This is the price of mastery. The sooner you accept that, the faster the improvements. In this case, the target isn't success with ALL women. It's a successful ESSENCE WITH women.
I totally understand the analytical part. I empathize with that a whooooole bunch because I myself was like that. And taking that leap is definitely easier said than done. So I'll leave it at that.
Just hopefully... add that story to your arsenal. Don't fear failure. It's just a signal that helps adjust your course. As long as you keep launching and traveling your given path, moreso through ACTION, you'll get a MORE ACCURATE signal as to where you are, and as you adjust, you'll be 90% more accurate in the long-term than if you had just sat in your "submarine" and kept calculating how to hit the target.
