Whatsup guys,

I’m about to iron The Excalibur, rocking out again in Vegas, and figured I’d hook you up with some game talk quick before heading to Tryst.

I actually haven’t even been out since I was in Vegas 10 days ago, so I’m interested to see how I come back at it.

I’ve talked about self amusement before, but I want to dive deeper into this because it seems SO HARD for guys to just have fun in the club.

I mean, what the fuck, it’s called THE GAME, don’t take it so seriously.

There are two aspects why most guys in the intermediate realm have issues with being able to enjoy themselves when out. Both of them related to how external factors influence their self image.

And in true Vegas style, I’m just gonna shoot from the hip, and then get to work in the club.


This first aspect is probably more obvious, and talked about often within RSD circles, also the reason I think so many guys fail.

It’s the age old scarcity/outcome dependence dilemma.

Most guy’s identity of themselves CHANGES when they sleep with a hot girl. Or don’t. Or sleep with a “not so attractive girl using food for comfort.”

I’ve read countless field reports on RSDN where the guy says:

“And then I woke up the next day and saw the pig next to me! I feel so down and dirty because I slept with an UGGGG.. (tear)_”

Now I’m not going to espouse sleeping with girls below your standards, but if it does happen on the random occasion, in no way should that affect your personal perception of yourself.

Now, I will say, if it happens too often, you should take a step back and see if you are taking the easy way out too often, or if you’re not creating high enough expectations for yourself, but to FEEL BAD and like less of a person for sleeping with ANYONE, no matter what they look like, is just fucked up.

This creates an outcome dependence that is BLATANT when you go up to a hot girl.

She can feel all those internal gymnastics going on inside your head.

“ooh, let’s parade her past my friends, they’ll see me making out with a hottie and give me a high five! Yay!”

“Man, we would have such cute babies!”

“Oh, this one’s a keeper. I can’t imagine how she’d look on my bed! My inner game would finally be handled after her!!!!”

All external bullshit outcome dependence that you stack on the situation, coming across as WAY TOO SERIOUS because you are making this interaction worth more than it is.

What should the frame be?

A cool guy, meeting a maybe cool girl, and if things sync up, you’ll fuck the shit out of her, give her a high five, and say “Hey we should do that again sometime. Peace.”


The other reason guys are so serious in the club is because they spend way too much time “fitting in” instead of just enjoying themselves.

It’s so weird that we live in a culture where it is NORMAL to feel down and depressed, even if you don't have a reason.  It's called "being a realist."

But if you are having fun and CELEBRATING, you all of a sudden need a reason.

Why do you need a reason to enjoy life?!

Squeeze the juice and live passionately, who cares if people think you are overly excited or having too much fun.

I’ve said in the past that a good frame to have is of “the guy who’s slept with 1000 women.”

Do you think that guy gets excited about ANYTHING?!

Well this frame works because if you are getting overly excited about something someone does or the environment, it comes across as you being overly invested in the interaction.

It’s never good to be excited about anything a girls does.

But if you are just EXCITED ABOUT LIFE?!

Everyone gravitates towards that.

Go out and just have fun.

People spend way too much mental energy trying to “act cool,” fitting in with the environment around them.

When no one is looking, and you are in your car, isn’t it interesting how you just start singing along to the music, rapping to the beat, but when you pull up to the stop light next to another car…

All of a sudden you get embarrassed, see the other person staring at you, and get stifled.

Realize their judgment is not because what you are doing is wrong, it’s because everyone is ENVIOUS of an unstifled person.

Of course, I’ve been the judger countless times, calling people try hard and weird, but something from Hal and Sidra Stone’s Voice Dialogues, is that anytime you have an emotional response towards someone or their actions, it’s because YOU ARE SUPPRESSING THAT THING WITHIN YOURSELF.

Everyone WANTS to have fun, be playful, and celebrate, they’ve just created criteria that is WAY TOO HIGH for celebration, living a grey, dull existence.

Go to work, punch in, punch out, and if you do something extraordinary, or it’s your birthday, then pop some champagne.

But day to day living is for pragmatism.

I say FUCK ALL THAT. Why not just celebrate life everyday, every waking moment?

What do I enjoy most in life?

Showers.

Right now, I’m listening to damn Justin Bieber, ironing a shirt that I’ve given a name to, and I’m wrapped up in some weird ass pink rug that they put on the beds at the Flamingo Hotel.

Fuck it.

Stop being cool and just enjoy yourself.

Alright, gotta jump in the shower quick and get ready to hit up the club again. Gonna be so good, luv me some hot shower.

Let’s hope I can keep the streak alive, I’ll comment below with how the night goes. :)

Also, I’ll be in NYC next weekend, haven’t been there since November I think. So excited to be back, and the spring is one of the best times to party there.

So I’m sure I’ll be seeing some of you at Gansevoort or Pianos, and there is still one spot left if you are interested in taking a bootcamp, and joining in the magic!

Yes, it’s magic.
