the secret, the power of now, the mystery method, the attraction code. they all bounce around but don't nail this core answer. there is a difference between being consciously aware of how the world works and how to consciously attend your thoughts so that, the way the world works, works in your favor.

the answer "you don't have to focus on what the world wants from you, you can just focus on what you want from the world for you"

there are no secrets, everything is happening around you. it is not your job to understand it, it is the worlds job to let you do what you wish with it.

start looking at PUA techniques from this point of view, and the answers will start to unravel. all your doing when running game is communicating "i don't have to do anything to get you to like me, i do what ever i want". this is why i'm not surprised by the apocalypse opener because it communicates just that.

btw this is technically reffered to as extroverted attention as opposed to introverted.

one more thing. it's important to know that confidence and extroverted attention can only be accomplished when you feel it's okay to be introverted and insecure. a great paradox of life. you could say confidence is the feeling that it's okay to be unconfident.

thanks for reading, im really happy to share this, since i feel a lot of pua material influences introverted thoughts. Not that pua material is false, but it inspires you to introvertedly try to act extrovertly.

Thats an interesting perspective. Empowering.

I think at least for some people there is the issue of feeling like "I deserve to live and I'm ok".

"Self Affirmation". Its deeper than self esteem and self respect because it is completely internal and not conditional.

I was thinking about that today actually. What happens yo you as a person is often a reflection of how other people perceive you. If you're getting negative reactions from the world, it's because you're giving off negative reflections, even when one believes he is properly dressed and has said all the right things. Its an interesting topic.

very deep... so much information to consume and live by

Was a tad confusing at first, but then I finally got it.

Great post man, you make great points.

In the end, I think it's best to be introverted. You appreciate certain things about the world and about life that extroverts may not. As an introvert you have the power of thinking too much, and in some aspects that makes you more powerful. It also just makes things a little more difficult because you think about the outcomes both good and bad of what you want.

The moment when I learned how important to me it was to be an introvert:

I was walking with this girl, she was great and we had this fantastic date. We got to this hilltop in a part of the city I had never been to, and it had this beautiful view. I turned to her and I said "Stop, this looks amazing." As I watched, she just kind of shrugged it off like "Oh yeah. It's cool."

From that point on, I'll never forget how much of a turn off it is when someone can't appreciate something beautiful like that.

Hope I didn't derail too much, but I just thought that people may think there's some sort of stigma with being an introvert when in reality it's just a different and great perspective.
