Progress & A Goal

First off I would like to start this post by thanking The Judge. He has provided a great deal of assistance and willingness to provide excellent advice when it comes to helping me deal with the various sticking points that I have encountered. I do not think I would have made nearly the progress that I have made, let alone any progress at all without your help. If there is anything that I can do to repay you, let me know (if you ever need any free accounting help I am your man).

It has been a little bit over a month since I offered by ultimatum, in that time I probably have made between thirty and forty approaches. Those approaches have turned into 3 numbers (four actually but one was fake, ouch but I had a feeling that I asked way to soon after like 3 minutes) but no day 2s. So I definitely think that I have a problem with the attraction and I am going to work on that, but that is more numbers that I have gotten in my entire life previously on cold approaches( I have gotten numbers before but it was always a friend of a friend or a girl approaching me).

Anyways, last night I was laying in bed unable to sleep after I just got done rereading double your dating, and decided that I needed to set some goals for myself relating to pick-up. I decided that it shouldn’t relate to # closes, because numbers don’t really mean anything as I have been finding out. So what I decided is that I would make 1000 approaches by the end of the year. That is roughly 3 a day or 23 a week, every week for the rest of the year.

I think that doing this will accomplish a few things for me: 1) I will have a target number of approaches that I will try to make everyday/week rather than just doing when I feel like it. 2) I should progress a lot quicker then I have been because I will be approaching triple the number of target ( I was averaging about one a day) 3) The further I go along the easier it will become b/c AA should less a little bit every day. But I will try to keep an update of where I am at, if I am ahead of my pace or behind it and when interesting things come up in my journey.

Oh, and when did this blog turn into such a ghost town??
