Work Update, and The Importance of Being Able to Walk Away

I’d like to cap off this week of work-related posts with a quick update. I ended up talking to my manager about my plans: I didn’t say exactly what I was going to do, just that I was going to be leaving within the next 8 months “to start my own business.” I’m lucky in … Continue reading Work Update, and The Importance of Being Able to Walk Away →

Man’s Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl (Review/Summary)

I recently finished reading this short book and thought I’d talk about it today as it can be linked to Monday’s post about work. The unintended side effect of me telling girls that my job is “personal coaching” is that it has put my current work into stark contrast. I can speak with such conviction … Continue reading Man’s Search for Meaning, Viktor Frankl (Review/Summary) →

“So What Do You Do?”

Recently when girls have been asking me “so what do you do?” I’ve been telling them my job as if I’ve already become a full-time coach.

Feeling Ill, Short Post (Managing the Process Between the 1st and 2nd Date)

How do you manage the “process” between 1st and 2nd date? There’s a big section in Daygame Infinite on the bubble burst period i.e. what to do after the first date, but I find that for me, in London, there’s not a lot of difference as to when I take her number initially. I send … Continue reading Feeling Ill, Short Post (Managing the Process Between the 1st and 2nd Date) →

Feeling Ill, Short Post (Approach at Any Time vs Being Off the Clock)

I’ve been feeling very ill for the past few days - literally bedridden - and so this week’s posts are late. They are also going to be very short but I wanted to get something out so that I could continue my “three posts a week” streak. I’ll release a post like this one tomorrow … Continue reading Feeling Ill, Short Post (Approach at Any Time vs Being Off the Clock) →

Lessons From This Weekend’s Coaching #3

Here’s another edition of this series. This time the student’s name was Mark and here’s his testimonial. I thought that since it was longer I would post the whole thing here with an abridged version on the coaching and testimonials page. Under Mark’s testimonial is the advice I sent to him after the session. To … Continue reading Lessons From This Weekend’s Coaching #3 →
