Just Like I Said, Don’t Chase

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Lifestyle Design

Morgan Freeman gets it. Don’t chase. It’s that simple, even if it’s not always easy. This truly is “the secret” to picking up women.

Secret as in the most effective behavioral change you will *ever* make. Ever, ever, ever.

And what does it mean on a deeper level?

As you might have guessed, it’s a re-focusing on and of the self. It’s the application of selfishness to dating.

And I am not convinced there is a way around it for all the “not my personality” naysayers.

When someone says that, I think it’s tantamount to saying “strength training just isn’t my cup of tea”, which is tantamount to saying “teeth brushing is just not my thing, you know?”.

You’ll be amazed how passionately some people will defend the accumulation of past chasing experiences too. I’ve been there, and it’s stupid. Don’t waste your time.

Live your life, fight for your values tooth and nail, and let women flock to you.

For all for the “this is just theory jockey…

The League of Extraordinarily Unemployable Bloggers

So I think I was recently the recipient of an award. I was kindly included on a list of unemployable bloggers. Truly a moment to remember in life, to receive such an honorable mention.

I’m only half kidding. This is actually a great article, and a great list of fellow bloggers.

The article does indeed hit close to home, especially the bit about not being able to handle corporate employment. Truth be told, I am unable to handle having a boss. Nearly every “job” I have ever held has ended in a serious disagreement between me, and someone who is a superior to me in said company or organization.

For example, I worked at the now bankrupt Circuit City back in highschool. I was very good at what I did, simple as the job was. I won sales awards, got raises, excelled in morning dodgeball competitions (seriously), etc. But as time went on, I realized this was because I was left alone.

You see, in the beginning,…

Why Women Should Always Chase Men

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Independent Thinking, Lifestyle Design

When I released my recent post “The Real Secret to Picking up Women“, a number of people commented on the gender specific assertion I was making: that men should never chase, and women should always do all of the chasing.

I didn’t elaborate further, nor is this something that anyone could expect to be widely understood. Heck, I’m not even sure Brenth Smith understands why women should chase. And I stress the word “should” there because I mean that in the best and highest, all encompassing, sweeping statement sense.

As in, women chasing men is a matter of psychological health, not arbitrary whim/chance, or even choice. [You have about as much choice in the matter as you do in breathing.]

So why is this?

  • Why must women chase men?
  • Why can it be no other way?
  • Can men not “like” chasing?
  • Can women not “hate” chasing?

It is because nature to be commanded is to be obeyed, and the fundamental nature, the essence of femininity, is to look…
