The Untamed
There are many behavioral aspects you can take when courting women. Dogs gain affection by doing tricks, following orders, and being a good companion. Rats swarm their prey and win their prize through eventual weakened submission. Wolves may hunt alone or in packs. But, they do not require permission or the support of others. Methodical in their approach, they are well aware of their abilities and will close in on a target given the opportunity. If a chase becomes inconvenient, they will discontinue the pursuit and search for new desirable prey; going for weeks without food at times. If you're hungry, don't feel ashamed of your instinctual needs. You're a man. Use your knowledge and experience to get what you want. Never should you ever act like a domesticated bitch or rely on the influence of alcohol to assist in your process. Step up your game and behave how a gentleman should.

An Invitation
It's the end of the night at a club, and you can already see most the guys desperately trying to close their deals like used car salesmen at the end of the month. Who's more valuable, you or her? An invitation to spend a few extra hours with you at a late-night restaurant, an after-hour lounge, or back at your place should be desirable by itself. Don't seek value, provide it. The same rule applies for earlier in the night. Treat both disposable pleasures and meaningful pursuits the same. Don't be so forceful or needy when conversing with them. Grace them with your presence and show genuine appreciation. Flattery is insincere, selfish, and unappreciated - so there's really no need for any of it. Take your pick and work your game with your calm confidence. You are the prize.

Social Discomfort
The only person you can blame for the result of your actions is yourself. This includes your interactions. Have you ever opened up to someone who was just blatantly rude or not in the mood to talk to you? It was either your method of approach or timing of it. As I continue to push myself to become comfortably extroverted, I have gone out many times even when I'm in a not so good mood. With stress and lack of interest to socialize, my introverted self takes over. But eventually throughout the night, I begin to feel more relaxed and open up. So will the girls who are initially rude. While it's okay to stay reserved from time to time, you should not use it as a justification to remain so for an extended period. I remember when "I don't know what to say" was an acceptable excuse for refraining from an interaction. This is no longer acceptable. If you want to be socially savvy and achieve social prestige, you are going to have to work for it.

Promotions
I started making promotional flyers on a voluntary basis starting September of last year for ISIS Productions. Even with the two month gap where I was in Tokyo, I got to know several of the members pretty well. And while going out at night, I can't help but mention how great all their events are when I'm at an alternative venue or odd night out. So I guess my interest with promoting for them was inevitable. Due to the small size of Boston, there's really only room for a single Asian nightlife promotion group. No other really stand a chance, in my opinion. Starting this weekend my trial period begins. I reached out to quite a few people within the Boston area on Facebook. Some of whom I haven't spoken to in ages. I hope the turnout is good. I'll have to continue networking and building up some regulars for a while to keep business going well. It's definitely going to be a challenge.

Back to SK
It's been about a month since my mother moved back to South Korea. After living in Boston for only 8 months, she managed to stabilize her finances and find a job with an equivalent wage to mine. As a freelance zen artist coming out of a long separation from society, I find that very impressive. Yet, she found her lifestyle here in the states to be very demoralizing and without purpose. Watching as she packed her things and leave for Korea, reminded me of how I felt in 8th grade when she separated from my family. It wasn't her fault then, and it's not her fault this time around. Maybe her true happiness is found in solitude with nature. Something I guess I couldn't provide.

The revelations I post here are regularly referenced until even I have fully adopted and internalized them. The duration in which these concepts will take to cement into your life truly depend on the level of motivation and desire from within.
