One thing that I see some guys do on the boards and in real life with women is that they take themselves sooooooo DAMN seriously!
It annoys me off to see posts where guys are like "I went up to talk to the girl and tripped over my words and got nervous and then she rejected me in front of everyone! I can't believe how humiliated I was. Girls are evil!!" Its such a weak, usually insecure, trait in that your self image inhibits you from operating at your full potential... or at least causes more stress than necessary.
In the past 6 months I've consumed loads of comedy ranging from stand up comedy to South Park to funny books (Tucker Max comes to mind thank you Anatman). I was inspired to do this from watching RSDfreetour vids, which I find hilarious, and started amping up my daily dose of humor, not just living vicariously in content but actually finding shit in your own life that makes you laugh out loud.
If you watch an RSDfreetour vid (sorry for putting GC competitor content on, I'm not sure how big of a deal that is but it was the quickest example off the top of my head) such as this short clip of Tyler telling a story of him getting mocked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AGwz4Fgojw
You can get the picture that he doesn't take himself seriously at all and isn't insecure about some seemingly trivial blip on the radar of life.
However a lot of people if this happened to them would do their best to eliminate this from their memory while simultaneously praying to God that no one they knew saw this happen to them because that would distort their self image that they hang onto soooooo tightly.
If you're going to get good at pickup you have to lose your Ego which is painful so why not laugh a little to help the process a bit.
So I've made a habit to find one thing in my daily life per day that makes me laugh out loud, and a genuine laugh.
A quick example:
Pickup is an extreme source of comedy to me. Almost every interaction I have something humorous happens whether it be something I say, a weird/bad reaction from the girl, or a bad rejection I get.
Here's an example from my journal:
I also find driving really amusing especially drivers with road rage/in a hurry. They think that by speeding around you in an aggressive manner is going to save them time and they waste all their gas and get stressed as shit buzzing around everyone and yet they somehow can't manage to go fast enough to avoid stopping at the same stoplight as you... every time.
Meanwhile I'm meditating in my car and cool as a fucking cucumber while road rage Bob is two cortisol pumps away from having a meltdown and blasting his brains onto his windshield because everyone doesn't go 20 MPH over fucking the speed limit.
This is the shit I find funny I recommend you find what makes you laugh and explore different tangents of that to see what type of humor you vibe with.
I find that the more you make a habit of this the more addicted you get to trying to find things in your life (or thoughts) that make you laugh and you literally train your brain into amusing yourself and having fun.
There's a real cathartic healing property to laughing on a regular basis and if you can train your brain to do this (preferably as much as possible) you can re carve the neuro-pathway's in your brain and change your brain chemistry to be more happy, positive, and stress free.
Also you'll be more secure with yourself. Women are going to shit test you about something you might be insecure about and by being able to laugh at yourself and be secure with whatever it is (for me it's premature ejaculation) then the women you talk with will be more attracted to you as a result.
By the way if you still get Butt hurt and sad when you get rejected you're taking yourself TOO FUCKING SERIOUSLY.
You're not fucking James Bond! Get over yourself. If you can't see the humor in rejection learn to detach from your petty little self image and get to the point where EVERYTHING that happens is FUNNY.
Watching other people get rejected is funny right? Learn to laugh at yourself the same way others laugh at you and you'll be wayyyy far ahead of the average chump that gets butt hurt over petty bullsh!t.
You'll be happier and get your dick wet more.
Sorry if this jumped around a lot or isn't organized well but hopefully you got something out of it if this pertains to you.
