Looking back, the #1 piece of advice I would give myself as a younger guy would be to be more aggressive. Don't be timid. Don't worry about a girl rejecting you. Sure, she may snicker, or your friends may laugh, but EVERYONE gets rejected.
Rio, I sincerely agree with you on this crucial piece of advice.
Guys who are first learning game, will no doubt have trouble with the notion of being extremely aggressive + being able to hold your mental frame while brushing off blow-outs and rejections.
It takes time to build the courage and 'lack of caring' in order to really start being assertive with your intentions.
Honestly it took me around a year to really start becoming aggressive, as well as being able to deal with being rejected. It's not just practicing game and approaching 100 girls that triggers the change - it's the idea that I now care more about what I think of myself then what some random chick thinks of me. While it seems straightforward, it's both a mental and emotional change that doesn't come easily.
I've never had trouble getting with cute girls, but what stirred the biggest change in me is deciding that I didn't want to settle for attractive girls that I knew were interested in me. I want to bang the best looking girls at my college, and there's only 1 way to do that: approach the most attractive girls I see, and be aggressive as hell (especially on the weekend - course it's easier when they've been drinking a little...or a lot
)
Anyway, I made a gay little pact with my best friend about a year ago that we would hit 100 notches before we ever considered marriage. Since I've been back at school, I've banged 7 girls in 4 weeks - 1 was busted, but the other 6 were some of the best looking girls I've been with. And over the past couple of months my notch count has been growing at an extremlely high rate (at least for me)...
But this isn't because I'm focusing on some stupid end goal of 100 lays, but rather the fact that I'm tired of doing what's easy. I'm putting in the work to attract higher quality girls, and doing so I need to be vehemently aggressive. I honestly think that I deserve the cream of the crop, and I think the #1 lesson for me, aside from being aggressive, is actually, truthfully, and wholeheartedly believing that I deserve the highest quality girls that surround me; and not just 1, but several, which is why I'm not stopping, or settling into a monogamous relationship that will undoubtedly end sour (especially at the ripe age of 20).
The simplified belief is that you deserve better than what may be given to you, though you need to work hard and put your ass on the line and face lots of rejection in order to get there.
Once you believe this, I think a new passion and aggression will come alive in you, and you'll find your real potential.
