whatever

Don't fight them. Just be unaffected by their unsteady rhythms, keep true to your goals and share little of them for now. Go back to club promoting, and launch your writing career from there. At least, it'd provide you with another platform. Couldn’t hurt, right? This guy at work whom I hanged out for a while, it was pure fun, adrenaline, girls, guy stuff. Jealousies arose among the guys, every single night I outdid them. I’d go in there and roam around the bar, maybe staying ten minutes at a time on three strategic places afar from one another in the bar. I’d interact casually with the girls, sometimes I’d be approached by them. I guess I was a bit unconcerned, somewhat careless. I wasn’t there to find a girl; I wouldn’t hide or pretend or seem eager, take off the pressure of the “come ons”. Guys don’t have to necessarily mention that they are only interested in one thing: they telegraph it from miles away. Women read us so well. How we truly feel, whether it is uncomfortable or completely safe in our own skins, is what we give off and women pick on it naturally. Their sense of intuition is far more complex and rich than yours. It can be said that girls do have superpowers. So, get rid of all technique, drop the pretense and give her that sly smile. Whatever you do will be enough just as long as it comes from the heart and has a degree of balls in the equation. Be direct; be indirect. Don’t fall for the predictability of a single way of doing things. Everyone loves spontaneity, the nonchalant attitude, the sympathetic ego, respect and give a little bit of you at a time. Don’t boast; don’t brag. Remember the saying, Tell me what you brag about and I’ll tell you what you lack. Let your actions speak volumes of you. Let them talk good or bad about you, it’s just a reflection of who they are. We treat others the way we feel. If you feel like shit, we shit on others. So let others shit in peace. Don’t get in their way, complaining about the smell of being misunderstood. Just walk away and smile. Focus now, what do we need in order to make it to the next level. Well, I need to be ten times a better employee now. It is a challenge, so get to work earlier, look sharper and neater in every possible way, be very clean, wake up earlier. In fact, maybe get there forty minutes to the hour. Change, for the better. Jog from 86th street to work two mornings a week. Take food the other three days off jogging from home. Our goal is to one day, before the year ends, I jog all the way from 125th street to work. I’d get in extraordinary shape. I’d rid of the dreamgirl complex. Move the tribe out of this jungle. We’ll buy that one hundred thousand dollar apartment in Dominican Republic. We’ll be good.

Aging Gracefully

Be graceful, not just grateful: both these words have the same etymological root. But what is it that makes being graceful better than just ...
