Thank you everyone for pointing out that my blog title is spelled improperly. It is on purpose though, so don’t get your panties all tied up! <3

Very soon I will I hit my 1-year anniversary of being in this lifestyle change game. I can’t put a specific number on the day, but the events that transpired remain vivid in my memory – forever.

Back then, a day in the life would look something like this:

I would wake up, and go to my retail day-job. Work all day, and once I was done, I would get in my new car, and head over to pick up my business partner. We would get high, and drive around doing business; Eventually making our way to a pub in the N.E of Calgary, where we would hang out with our boss. Play some games of pool, do some lines, and drink a lot of Hennessy. Then I would go home, and do it all over again the next day.

Right before I got on with this new boss, I had read ‘The Game‘. We would go out to the club and try to pick-up girls. I popped my collar with the excuse of flair. We would get absolutely trashed every night. It was a lot of fun. I remember one specific night at the club with the bosses. We were at The Backalley. One of my bosses pointed out a girl dancing on the speaker, and said: “Go get her for me.” I hesitated, knowing that it was not going to happen, but I had to go anyways. Of fucking course she looked at me and was like: “uhh no?!“. Ha ha. Shortly after wards, we got in a fight (a random and our crew). I ended up having to pick my buddy up from the hospital. This was normal for me.

A few days later we were at the bosses pub – we brought a few girls this time. One of them said they had a friend who was going to fight, and we should go watch. A big part of me wishes I would have said: “No.” but I also think this event had a huge impact on where I am today. So we pop some ecstasy and I start driving down south. Eventually we’re in a field ready to watch this fight. There’s literally 30 Asian guys (it was an Asian fighting an Asian), and 3 white guys (my buddy, another buddy, and me). The fight isn’t getting started, so I’m about to bounce because I had a bad feeling about this whole thing, when I look over, and 5 Lebanese guys (randomly showed up), started to chase my buddy. Fuck. So I start yelling at him to run to the car, and we will meet up. He (being an idiot) doesn’t, and just continues to dodge the swings of batons. Finally I get irritated, and knowing I can’t run in there to help him out (we are severely out numbered) and to make matters worse: they have weapons. Very last resort technique? Words. I go up to one and tell him “he doesn’t know what the fuck he’s doing, and that when my boss finds out about this, they are going to be fucked.” Have I ever done this before? No. Name-dropping or using words in general is pathetic, but I had no choice. One of the guys overhears me say this, and pulls out a gun, points it at my head, and says “It doesn’t matter right now does it?”. I told him “if he’s going to do it, then do it”. One of his buddies comes swinging with a baton aiming for my head, and to deflect the blow, I throw my left elbow up as a guard. My elbow was smashed. After I got hit with that, internally I said: “Fuck this.” And I ran, as fast as I could, holding my elbow. Grab the rest of the guys and drive back to the pub.

During the next few days I remember thinking about the opportunities I had, especially with the knowledge of this radical lifestyle change I could be apart of. I remember having my boss call me at like 7pm saying I had to go see him. I had plans to go out to the club for a girls birthday or something, and said I wouldn’t go. I remember having the thought that if I didn’t get out from that scene ASAP, I wouldn’t be able to. The next time I saw my boss, I told him I was out, I didn’t want to be apart of this anymore, and reasoned congruently with “I like where my life is headed.” I felt very good about this decision.

It’s interesting when I reflect back on this past year. The lessons, the stories, the success and feedback. It truly has been the best year of my life, and I know each year there after will be the best one too. Of course there’s ups and downs, but that is life! The other day I was reflecting back on this past year; I realized I had been through 4 or 5 different cellphones; and how it was interesting the different phases I went through with each. The types of girls that were in each phone, and the type of sticking point I was going through. That was pretty cool.

A major change I made during this past year was being much closer to sobriety! Now, I’m not 100% sober, but I also don’t believe I need to be. The difference is, as my Father always talks about: “It’s in Balance.” It would be very hard to make radical lifestyle changes while maintaining your status as an alcoholic, or drug addict. This is an example of one major change I (along with many others) have made. I believe this is why I get very irritated whenever someone tries to belittle the change we’ve all made. I put in a ton of fucking effort and made huge sacrifices to make this platform of lifestyle change work. That is really what this whole “game” is. It’s a fucking platform.

Think about this for a second:

Have you ever had the epiphany that you really aren’t very confident? You have low self-esteem?

OF FUCKING COURSE YOU HAVE. It’s totally fucking common, and totally fucking reasonable. You want to know the thought that comes to mind after wards (generally)?

“Fuck, how do I fix that?”

And then you continue on living your life how you were, because you have no fucking clue how to REALLY fix those inner core issues. You have no fucking clue. There’s little things that of course help, such as: getting a job (structure), getting out more (having fun), and pursuing your dreams (being passionate about something). But deep down, you just don’t have an idea about how to fix these core issues. And really, at the same time, you have no idea about a variety of the mindsets you should have!

The sets in this platform are just the teaching point. GENERALLY, if a girl reacts a certain way towards you, it means something specific. Your communication isn’t coming across properly. Could that be your body language? Tonality? Both? Could it be you’re not smiling, you’re not having fun? If a girl doesn’t like you, and you get all upset – reactive, it’s showing you that you are needy, you need that validation; how attractive is that? I could go on like this for hours. This platform awakens you to all these mindsets, and gives you a way to practice, get feedback and learn! And just like the rest of life, there is no magic pill.
