So what's the solution?
The discussions I've heard about reframing the approach so as to involve a QUALIFICATION PROCESS are the closest to hitting the mark. Our problem as guys typically is that we've PRE-QUALIFIED women before we've even met them based on their looks and/or how they appear to handle themselves from afar. Having already decided we like a woman before even meeting her, the insidious "contest" is on. Every time.
Instead of approaching women with our approval already sewn up, we need to start putting women to the test in the same manner they famously test us.

The other day I got a chance to meet an old acquaintance in a social gathering after almost 15 years. All I could recall about him was his struggle to set up his software company in San Francisco when I had last met him in a convention. He was in a desperate search of a venture capitalist. To cut it short, today he owns a 50 people software company in San Francisco and looks more composed and happy than he was that time.This person, who I would call Ken Palmer, was surrounded by people all the time in that gathering and gave an impression of being no less than a celebrity. I wondered what had he become! I approached him finally when I saw no one around him. Whatever you say, radiance does start showing in ones personality after experiencing achievement and success! I am only delighted to
Most of the information I've read on the subject centers around teaching men to sack up and "get over it", using any manner of Jedi mind tricks designed to help us "deal with rejection", "visualize success", use "indirect openers", etc. But I've read relatively little on the subject that dives beyond the surface of the issue. Most of us are or were at some point in our lives afraid to approach women. Instead of being given a pep talk, I'd rather know WHY we as men are almost universally affected by this, and HOW we fell into this trap. From that position of understanding, it makes sense that we can better figure how to dig ourselves out.
And it is absolutely a trap. It's an irrational fear for a man to be "afraid" of women. After all, most of us as men are not catatonic basket cases sucking our thumbs in a fetal position when it comes to other aspects of our lives. We play football in high school. We go downhill mountain biking, surf hurricanes, get concealed weapon licenses, street race muscle cars, ask customers for high-dollar sales orders, train pit bulls, get full-sleeve tattoos, do third-gear wheelies on GSXR-1000s and remove offending garden snakes from backyard sheds. Some of us even DAYDREAM about things like making high-pressure 20-foot putts for birdie on the 18th green at Augusta National.
Yet, we cannot bring ourselves to go talk to an interesting woman at a bar, an airport or even in our own dormitory at college.
To further underscore how bizarre this phenomenon gets, I remember running with a crowd primarily composed of United States Marines back when I lived in Yuma, Arizona. We'd park our sportbikes somewhere to grab a bite, see an attractive woman and NOT ONE OF US would talk to her. We're talking about guys who had VOLUNTEERED to risk their lives for this country, and furthermore had just finished a pavement blistering canyon run five minutes before.
What is going on here?
Here it is: it's not the WOMEN themselves we are afraid of. It's our own egos that hamstring us. Allow me to elaborate.
We as men are competitive beings. When we're out with our buddies it's one contest after another. That's all well and good, and we like it that way. But deep in the soul of every man is a mortal repulsion against getting "beat by a girl". Whether women like it, understand it, think it's silly and/or can deal with it is actually irrelevant. It's a fact. The archetypal shame associated with it is wired into our XY genetic code.
Remember back in sixth grade when the girls were maturing and the boys were, well…still looking like little boys? Remember in gym class how some of the girls could run faster and throw harder? It was a drag, wasn't it? When we as guys got older that problem took care of itself for the most part…except in two notable areas: the business world and, of course, the dating world.
In the business world women are going to get promotions and ascend to positions of power with or without any input from YOU in particular. If a woman "beats" you in that arena, you can either accept it and stick around or find another job.
But dating is another story. The "competition" is mano-a-mano when it comes to approaching a woman. And THAT, my brethren, is where we as men let our egos betray us. We tend to see approaching women as a COMPETITION. If you or I approach a woman with this mindset, we believe someone is going to WIN and someone is going to LOSE. If she REJECTS us, we lose-and we've been "beaten by a girl"! And even if we DO get a smile and a phone number, if she doesn't answer the phone when we call her we STILL are getting "beat by a girl". Given this situation, it's a no-brainer to see why most men don't even bother to talk to women AT ALL. The risks to ones psychological well being are just too great. Getting "beat by a girl" is more painful than crashing and burning anywhere else.

It is the details in real estate investing that can make you or break you. As you can imagine, unplanned repairs can put a serious dent in any profit that you were planning to make from a deal. The failure to notice a crack it the foundation can leave you financially devastated when major repairs need to be done before you can sell your investment. And if you have a knack for noticing details that others do not, you could find profitable properties that other investors pass over.The key to noticing the small details of any real estate investing opportunity is to slow down, be observant, and ask questions. Do not accept any investment opportunity if you are not well versed in every detail of the agreement and know all there is to know about the property itself. Granted, gathering and studying the necessary inf

Are you overworked; stressed-out, maybe even burned out running your business? Does it seem like you spend everyday all day fighting fires? At the end of the day; do you wonder where the day went, and why you didn’t get any of the important things you planned to do that day done?As your business has grown do you feel like the business is running you and your life rather than you running the business? This is a common experience among business owners, and yes all real estate agents are in fact business owners. When you first start out you are just so grateful for every dollar you can deposit in the bank. You don’t have a lot of systems and processes for handling business so you just make it up as you go along. When things don’t work quite the way you’ve planned you readjust and keep moving

For the price of your monthly car payment you can buy an iPod®. It will store your music and video. If you go on vacation, it will store the shots from your camera–unless you have one of those ancient critters that uses film.The last feature strikes at this old man’s heart. You can store a mess of pics and view them on the iPod® while on vacation.It’s a fact that I would buy an iPod® in a heartbeat except for the fact that when I go on vacation that after I’m down the road exactly thirty-seven miles I realize that I’ve forgotten my camera.I never turn back to get it. That is contrary to the teachings of the Church of the Old Geezer. I go into a gas-station store or a Wal-Mart®-type store and buy one of those throwaway cameras that they keep next to the checkout stand for forgetful old men.

Tax-free investments are the investments that are exempted from tax. Generally, there are two types of tax-free investments namely fixed and variable. In the case of a fixed investment the investor is assured with the guarantee of return of the original sum on maturity. Sometimes the income is kept as a fixed amount. In a variable investment, the value of the amount varies according to the fortunes and marketability of the underlying shares in a particular plan.There are quite a lot of tax-free investments available today. It can be categorized into two - one that is offered to everyone and the other that is available to people having income under their personal allowance. These investments are absolutely free from income tax as well as capital gains tax. Moreover, the tax-free investment provider normally do

Men are typically the CHASERS and women the CHOOSERS in this society as a result of how men tend to view this stuff. Men who deserve what they want and who refuse to "settle" need to start raising the bar, refusing to offer up immediate approval to women we meet until they have proven to be as attractive AFTER we meet them as they were BEFORE we met them. Women instinctively evaluate us when we approach them, as we know all too well. It's time for us to start doing the same-which we have every right to do as fellow human beings.
And look what happens in that case. The "competition" factor has magically been lifted from the scenario. If we haven't yet reached our own conclusions when we approach a woman, she really can't "reject" us…or "beat" us, as it were. She can only pass or fail our own evaluation process. And as any man who conducts himself with dignity and refuses to "settle" knows, women who are rude and/or quick to dismiss us thereby fail the qualification process. The principle at play is much the same as when a pushy or otherwise socially inept man fails a woman's test…as well it should be. It's as simple as that.
Simple, maybe, but not easy. It may take some time to unlearn the poisonous habit of seeing the approach as a competition. But the fact remains that we as men have the power to view things in the more sober context of mutual evaluation rather than "winning" or "losing". In doing so we overcome THE major contributor to "approach anxiety". And I assure you the effort is well worth it.
Strangely enough, the women will even appreciate you MORE as a result. After all, women love real men.
