Casual sex will always be available and isn't really that hard to obtain. There are far better, deeper discoveries to make out there, fellas...

But I also believe in a sense that we make our own luck. The power of the subconscious is 10 million times powerful than that of the conscious mind, when we try something or learn something new our subconscious is constantly finding ways to improve upon that, for example have you tried something new such as a break dancing move and couldn't do it so you gave up, then in a day or a week you remembered about it and was able to do it perfectly? Or you couldn't remember a name and the harder you thought about it the further away it went, then you gave up on it and 5 minutes later in popped into your head. That's the subconscious communicating with your conscious. Hey Tynan, I was wondering what typical age groups you normally pick up? Also about the "Hott" girls that you're saying are easier to pick up. Don't most of them have boyfriends? I know for a pro like you, that's no biggie. But i can see that as a hindrance for me.

Most of my life I have been one of those people who shies away from opportunity because it would mean taking a risk. Lately I have been working on a lot of self improvement and realized that not taking a risk on a good opportunity is foolish compared to the risks we take everyday like walking down the side walk next to a busy street or going for a swim at the lake. Either of these activites could be fatal, people drown or get hit by cars on a daily basis but most normal people wouldn't think twice about doing them. I myself was almost hit by a BMW that flipped over the median at 60KMpH few months ago but I still walk down sidewalks everyday and never worry about the risk. So why not take a risk on an good opportunity when it presents itself, put into perspective the benefits of success would likely outway the consequences of failure almost every time. Once again good stuff! Tynan I like this. Most of my life I have been one of those people who shies away from opportunity because it would mean taking a risk.

Reminds me of a passage from "Pour Your Heart Into It" by Howard Schultz (CEO of Starbucks) - "Life is a series of near misses. But a lot of what we ascribe to luck is not luck at all. It's seizing the day and accepting responsibility for your future. It's seeing what other people don't see, and pursuing that vision, no matter who tells you not to. In daily life, you get so much pressure from friends and family and colleagues, urging you to take the easy way, to follow the prevailing wisdom, that it can be difficult not to simply accept the status quo and do what's expected of you. But when you really believe - in yourself, in your dream - you just have to do everything you possibly can to take control and make your vision a reality" Tynan – I totally agree with your article.
