OO seems like david d gonna send some bombs into my e-mail soon , cant wait for it . HaHa , now i look back , it seems like the more i go into becoming a pua , altho right now i cant see my gals and stuff , no gals running to me. But i will not let go of the mental picture of me waking up and seeing my crush beside me in bed , or i will go sarging with great puas at the same level.
It's funny how on-it is can kills ya game . Yesterday after watching the peaceful warrior (thx to V) i kinda cried and my first thinking is to stop crying and "be a man" but i finally let go , i tried to force myself to cry and stuff.. only a few drops.. =S (seems like sniffing havent really cried for a long long time..nor had i really enjoyed myself) In the peaceful warrior , i finally understand why i cant sleep and stuff. And it really touch me deeply inside.
i realised from the movie...
That the journey is what keeps you happy not the destination
To clear my mind of the mental rubbish that prevents me from living this moment
Death isnt the thing to fear , just most people never really lived
There's nothing more important than being in the moment , it's because it's all you have.
(To think of it , quite true , we are either in the past or the future never really in the moment)
So it makes me realise that the most sexiest men has this presence (i read from a pua article)
so maybe that presence is because he's in the moment aware of everything like a samurai or some stuff.
And i just remembered , all bad boys are in the moment.
Ya so i going to train how to be in the moment , if anyone got tips like mediation or any inner game or outer game tips , tell me anything to improve.
cuz my moto is.. : JUST KEEP IMPROVING A LITTLE BIT AT A TIME.
