This topic circled my head again today and leads on from part one (found here). I asked myself what motivated me, and I think I went very close to the crux of the matter: the coping mechanisms we develop as children carry out into adult life for better or for worse. Sometimes these coping mechanisms … Continue reading What Motivates Us? (Part Two) – The Issue of the Return to Nomalcy

What Motivates Us?
This question has circulated my head a few times in the past year. Why do we try to get better at Daygame? Whether that’s improving ratios, higher quality or just sheer number of lays. What motivates us to get more than last year? What’s the source of that motivation? To start with we have the … Continue reading What Motivates Us?
2019 Goals, Contradictory Aims, Newbie Lays and Notch-Hunger
I had two goals for 2018: 24 lays 50:1 approach to lay ratio As you can read here, I’m an abject failure. Boo hoo, woe is me! Just kidding, I’m awesome. The only time you lose is when you fail to learn. The problems I built into my 2018 goals were twofold: Contradictory aims Compliance … Continue reading 2019 Goals, Contradictory Aims, Newbie Lays and Notch-Hunger
2018 Statistics
As I stated so wisely in my 2016/17 statistics: “competition exists only with yourself.” Let’s see how I fared: 2018 Overview 815 approaches 221 numbers 37 dates 14 lays (plus another Daygame lay but the approach was done in 2017, so it doesn’t count for the ratios) Ratios 3.7 approaches to each number close 22 … Continue reading 2018 Statistics
When Abundance Becomes the Problem (and what to do about it)
An old adage among Daygamers says that abundance is the solution to all your problems, and no doubt I agree, but only to a point. For a beginner, abundance is the solution to all the troubles of your life but I can safely say I’m beyond that stage now. This year I’ve seen how abundance … Continue reading When Abundance Becomes the Problem (and what to do about it)
What is Game? (or, Nothing Comes For Free)
What is Game? I see it as a verb (to take action which leads to better/more girls) and there is a dichotomy: tactical and strategic. Tactical Game is what you hear the most of. It’s aping the behaviours of a natural until you build reference experiences and stop faking it and actually make it. In … Continue reading What is Game? (or, Nothing Comes For Free)
My Dating (Part One)
I received an email recently regarding dating mindsets. Here’s the content in paraphrased form: I wanted to ask what your general date mindset/approach is. It seems like you assert your frame really well and girls fall into it eventually. How do you go about asserting this frame? I replied with: In terms of a general … Continue reading My Dating (Part One)
Suits With Strings Attached
I get a lot of work done from the toilet seat. A quick wipe down of some drone's piss and my porcelain throne is ready to receive my warm cheeks. Two friends reunited again. I read ebooks. I close my eyes and doze. I try to remember. I think about what’s at work here and … Continue reading Suits With Strings Attached
How To Write My Memoir
I was going to call this post “How to Write a Memoir” and then I realised it had already been done. To be honest my plan was to talk all about my own experiences so the re-title is more faithful to the material anyway. This was the process from start to finish. If you’re uninterested … Continue reading How To Write My Memoir
#56: Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy
I was sat on my bed feeling rather nervous. It was always this way when it was do-or-die: either she would be on or I’d fall flat on my face. It was going to be one of those nights. I really did hope that she was coming to meet me on my terms. Not because … Continue reading #56: Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy
