- Be careful of what you hold in awe.
Be careful of what you hold in awe.
(Is this a secret to success most will never understand?)
A friend of mine struggles to attract women.
He’s a good-looking chap. He’s nice. He has an interesting life.
But he still has a hard time being desired by those ‘mysterious creatures of the opposite sex.’
I couldn’t understand it for a long time until it clicked.
He does what so many men do, which is to pedestalise women.
He’s in awe of them.
The language he uses suggests this.
It’s like they’re from another planet.
Okay, Sally, before you protest and tell me, ‘That’s what men should do!’…
Realise this is making you less interested in those men. Wide-eyed boys, really. They would do anything for your desire.
Lame-Central.
The problem with holding something in awe is that it creates distance between you and what you want.
You’re actually emphasising your lower worth and scarcity mindset this way.
‘Oh wow, wouldn’t it be nice…’
Stop that.
You can have much of what you want.
(Note, I didn’t say you can have everything. I’m not a peddler of bullshit. But you can have a lot more of what you think.)
It applies to money, partners, dream lifestyles, jobs, etc.
Think about what you hold in disproportionately high regard.
Imagine if, rather than being in awe of that thing, you felt connected to it. Like it was a part of you.
What would happen if you knew you could attract this thing into your life with less effort?
What if you were the kind of person who attracted people or made lots of money?
When you reflect on this calmly, your wise mind will show you.
Write down what you find.
Let’s say you want more money. Imagine attracting it easily.
What would that look like? Who would you be?
You know the answers.
…Especially when you see there’s no distance at all between where you are and what you want.
If you’re sick of caring too much about what others think, and you want to dramatically improve your relationships…
You’ll love my recent course: Let Go of the S#it That Weakens You.
It takes you through 15 steps that shift your beliefs about yourself in the context of other people, rewiring your mind so you become more attractive and more confident.
If it doesn’t help, you get your money back (cue cheesy salesman grin) — but I mean it.
It’s not a cheap course. But what’s a lifetime of social confidence and calm worth to you?
Much sexy love.
