What I’m about to tell you is deliciously simple... yet so powerful that part of me doesn’t want to share it at all...
...because when you read it, you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and kick yourself so far up your a$$ you’ll taste rubber.
But...
And there’s a big but...
It might just banish your approach anxiety for good.
Alright Marni, get to the point!
Well, this Yoda-like wisdom comes from the most unlikely of sources...
A washed up, whisky addled writer on the wrong side of middle age.
His name?
Charles Bukowski.
Now, this guy was an infamous underground poet who didn’t sleep with a woman until he was almost thirty. Not exactly a ladies man...
But his wisdom and charisma was so profound that Bukowski was the inspiration behind legendary Californian Casanova, Hank Moody.
Look, this isn’t a literature lesson...so pay attention at the back of the class...
Here’s what Bukowski actually said: “If you’re going to try...go all the way”. Yup. Pretty simple, don’t ya think?
But there’s an important lesson here.
When it comes to girls, you can memorize every pick up trick (which I don't recommend), get a fresh trim once a week and look like Brad Pitt, but if you don’t throw yourself 100% into the moment, you’re never gonna get the girl.
