Day 13 & Salsa Party

Partially done!
Tonight I only spent about 10-15 mins going through my visual image practice. I was running out of time before having to go to my salsa xmas party tonight. So I guess I'll have to leave this up to a peer's decision on whether I completed this or not. Part of my image is a hall filled with people talking and waiting for the music to begin. I see myself walking up to people I don't and finding out who they are. Essentially my salsa xmas party. Tonight was my image makeover in real life. How did I go? I smashed it. I spent most of the night going around talking to so many different people. People I knew, students from class, and complete strangers. It was a great night. My target was there. I did not feel any nerves or anxious feelings before or while I was talking to her. In fact I felt courageous. In fact most of the night I would see a group of girls and in 3 seconds I was of talking with them. Didn't get a chance to use any game material but I did use heaps of DW observation, with kino on the upper arm and shoulder, which is getting easier and easier to do. I found out a lot more about her. But as a mental note, I need to develop and apply specific skills to help me build up attraction. As far as the impact that my image practice is achieving, it is amazing. I was confident. Didn't care what people thought of me. I looked people in the eye as I listened. And most importantly I didn't find myself in the situation where I had nothing to say. One of my fears in this game. At this moment I really want to change the image I've been practicing to one where I approach complete strangers. But I think its important to finish this one off. Already its had a huge impact. I feel ready to get back out into some night game and create my new self image. (Because its easy to do!) N.B. I watched Don Juan DeMarco today before heading out. This movie is awesome. Talk about creating a strong enigmatic frame. Through the night I keep saying to myself, "I'm am Don Juan DeMarco... the greatest lover the world has ever seen!" There are some empowerment in these words.
