How I escaped out of Prison
By: Derek Vitalio
A lot of guys have trouble getting started with seduction.
They have trouble building momentum in going out, meeting women, and building
on their successes.
Heck, a lot of guys have trouble even getting out of the house!
Well, I know how you feel. I know how easy it can be to stay at home and
watch television, surf the net, or kill time hanging out with a buddy.
The problem is, you most likely have a bunch of established anchors holding
you in place- in other words, tempting comforts and routines that makes it so
easy to be, well… LAZY.
It’s like something about your lifestyle forms an invisible PRISON around
you.
Well, I’ve had the same problem myself. And I’m going to tell you exactly
what I did to get out of it…
You see, at one point in my life my sex life was going nowhere. There were
girls around, and I had the means to meet them – a car and a little bit of
money - but I wasn’t doing anything to get out of the house. I was in the
completely wrong headspace for meeting women.
But there was nothing intrinsically wrong with me (so many guys are apt to
blame themselves), but it was my ENVIRONMENT that was sabotaging my goals.
Basically, I was living in a house where I had a lot of AFC behaviors linked
to. The house represented my dull, shelled off lifestyle.
I was also isolated away from any city, so I had to drive thirty minutes to
see girls in a target rich environment or go to a nightclub.
I finally decided to take some “extreme” action. I packed my bags and moved
halfway across the country - without a job lined up - just to shake up things
and make a change. And from that point on everything started clicking for me.
You see, the problem is really three-fold.
A lot of guys live in an isolated neighborhood, like the suburbs for
instance, or they don’t have access to transportation. But without the visual
stimulation of having attractive women around to approach on a daily basis, the
vision of creating a lifestyle full of sexual abundance can easily grow cool
and distant. Your social and mental isolation from women follows your physical
isolation.
A second phenomenon feeds into physical isolation- distraction. Most guys
have set their apartment up with 50 or more channels of cable television,
instant internet access, and videogames. With so many comfortable and tempting
distractions, it can become too easy to “put off for later” doing what you need
to do (like getting out of the house), and lose yourself in fantasy worlds that
may feed your brain, but impoverish your social life.
The third aspect of the problem is in the old anchors around you. Your
probably have old habits, routines, and thought patterns attached to your sofa,
your computer, and your bed that put you into the mood of falling into your
same old routines of staying home, thinking negative thoughts, and escaping
into fantasy time busters.
In fact, just the visual colors and patterns of your current space is enough
of an anchor to set you back into your old ways and habits every time you step
inside.
Isolation, distraction, and old anchors were a triple headed demon that all
worked against me at the same time.
And that’s why I ended up moving halfway across the country.
At the time, I wasn’t particularly conscious of what I was doing, I just
thought of it as “needing adventure” and needing to “find myself”.
But “finding yourself” – an escape out of a mental prison of sorts - is
exactly what happens when you move, when you change environments. Your old
anchors are destroyed and you’re allowed to start afresh, anew.
Moving to a new city
or to a new apartment shakes you up. A journey physically forces you to come
out of yourself and resolve hundreds of little problems, by uprooting you from
your habitual setting.
A journey forces you to resolve hundreds of little issues you had to face
before, and opens up new channels in your consciousness, through which fresh
air and new perspective can come into play.
Have you ever had a dilemma or problem, and you decided to “sleep on it”?
And the next morning a solution simple presented itself? Well, moving can be a
similar wakeup call for your life.
Of course, once you make a journey, you don’t want to reproduce the same
anchors and distractions in the new place. You must design your new place to
support the kind of person that you want to become.
This means removing all distractions- don’t keep more than one television in
your apartment, and cancel your cable subscription.
Keep a separate little laptop computer that is NOT connected to the internet
for writing your seduction journal and logging all your seduction notes and
tactics.
Give away your single-player videogames (online roleplaying games being one
of the worst offenders) and replace them with multi-player, social games that
require physical action, like Wii Sports.
Give up the TV? Give up the internet?? Hey, you WANT boredom to creep in, so
that you find entertainment OUTSIDE of your private space, so that you find entertainment
in social settings and with women.
Replace that old junk with a fantasy environment inside your swag pad that
sets a colorful, fun, funky, or seductive mood with colors and scents. Design
something that reflects the new, playful personality you’ll be building and one
that will set you in the right mood when you step inside.
Now, this advice isn’t for everyone, but if you do feel deep down in your
gut that you need to make a change, you should start laying the foundations for
making a journey, a move, step-by-step.
And the first step is fun- make a compelling future of where you would like
to be, and how you would like to live. Write it in as much detail as possible,
making it at least a full page long, and make it something reasonably attainable.
Then share your plan with a friend so that they hold you to it.
