Getting Over Fears: Lowering The Gradient In An Effort To Meet Girls And Connect With Women
A couple of weeks ago one of my buddies asked a question which i thought was worth talking about. He asked me how to overcome fears that pop up sometimes - even when everything is going good.
To be honest it's not at all a simple question to reply to as it varies from person to person. There are literally thousands of books that have been written on that matter only. However, one of the best ways I have used to overcome my fears generally involves lowering the gradient.
What are gradients? Gradients are like steps on a ladder. If you try to go to the top of the ladder on your first step, it will be impossible and you may fail. If you keep trying it again and again you might begin to build up a "complex" regarding failing, and soon not try anymore.
If you try to jump up five or six steps on your first try, it will also be frightening - not necessarily impossible but frightening. Probability is that if you have no experiences leaping that high you may fail too.
The correct approach is to take the first step and then advance one-step at a time. It is the most comfortable way to climb a ladder.
Here are some examples of how I apply that to get over fears that pop up in meeting women and dating women:
As many guys do, I often go out to meet women in a social setting. Sometimes it is particularly frightening. So when I am approaching a beautiful woman in a social setting, instead of telling her how beautiful she is and how much I am fascinated by her (that exposes my fear of being shot down in front of lots of people and embarrassed) I lower the gradient of approach and just say "Hi." If a girl likes you or is interested in you she will find a way to continue the conversation. If she doesn't then i understand she is not interested in me and the simple "Hi" just shows that I am friendly - not necessarily even flirting - thus I don't feel shot down in front of many people.
If I am starting to date a woman and I feel fearful taking the next step of trying to get intimate with her, I don't ask her "Do you want to get intimate?" I take a lower gradient and ask her if she wants to chill, get cozy, and just watch TV at my place. If she doesn't want to get intimate she surely won't wish to be alone with me, getting cozy at my place. Or rather than trying to suddenly "kiss her", I will simply hold her hand or give her light touches every now and again to discover how responsive she is to my touch. If she likes my touch she will start touching me back to render me with the go ahead signal.
These are a few examples. If you feel awkward and fearful just try to think of a lower gradient that isn't as frightening and allows you to make forward progress toward your main goal. If you do this you will know how to meet women and the way to connect with them very quickly.
