TOPIC: Day 28 journal

Im gonna be honest with you guys, since January ive been procrastinating with my routines and things I have to get done on day by day basis which is affecting different areas of my life including AA. Yesterday I did one rep on one girl that worked at a restaurant but not going to count that and today I was off the whole day and I just kept making excuses.
My first plan for tommorow is to wake up 8am (instead of 11) and get my day started by going to the gym and not take a nap until I goto sleep at night.

We are going to play a game.
It's called- WHO IS YOUR DADDY AND WHAT DOES HE DO?
READY?

WHO IS YOUR DADDY AN WHAT DOES HE DO?
* Challenge: If they interupt you, yell at them- "I'M DETECTIVE JOHN KIMBALL" and restart the drill.

Went to target for 40 min before work and had 1 attempt and 0 reps. I couldn't get myself to do it but I ended up going to work and went to the dunkin next door to atleast find a girl to do 1 rep on and as soon as I came a lady in her mid 20s parked and went inside the dunkin. I did the whole set and she kept saying idk, i dont get it than in the end i told her the game was literally what does your dad do? she said construction and I left. Again I noticed it was easy since it was literally only her and I at the dunkin compared to target where theres people around.
On the positive I woke up at 8am today
Did morning routine
Hit the gym right after
Finished my to do lists: Call 2 friends,Buy oatmeal & hemp seeds, update my financials
Went to target & dunkin for AA
Went to work

Keep going. You log really inspires me. You are struggling but keep going. You will definitely complete this. Hope to do the same.

I have been doing the drills past few days but prob missed 2 days out of the 5. Yesterday I did the drills but I was drunk after the superbowl but wanted to finish the sets so I ended up going to a casino and spoke to 4 women all together even having long conversations w 2 of them but the problem was I didn't do the drills properly. They interrupted and I didn't repeat it and I was drunk so I did not count yesterdays but the day before that I went to the mall near my house and was able to get 3 reps in out of prob 5/6 girls and it was mainly girls that were young or in middle school. The last girl I did it on that day she was w her friends and they were all middle school and she was like im gay and thats really weird game as were walking into macys and she started calling me a creep and weirdo. I didn't really care bc it shows me how the girls reaction is a reflection of her and her personality.
I didnt do any drills today tbh I had it planned out and everything but I ended up taking a nap and went to work right after. Still working on my day to day habits and routines.
Will continue the drills tomm my friends

Did only 1 girl today. My whole schedule is a mess and or I procrastinate out of leaving the house and end up going last 20/30 min for AA and do 1 girl before work. The lady I did it on i did the whole thing 3 times and she said she didn't have a dad and than I was using filler words after that.
I was doing a program a called 75 hard which I recently finished and there is a total of 3 phases after that. Im going to get on phase 1 asap because while doing 75 hard my whole schedule was on point and I would get my sh*t done everyday regardless of time.

Did 1 girl yesterday at a parking lot waiting for her to come out of wendys and she was confused and asked me was she supposed to call me daddy? I nodded no and repeated it 3 more times and it was the same response so I than left. Whats funny is instead of going back in my car I acted like I was going into wendys so it could look like that I was buying something so I wouldn't look weird. Just an observation and something I need to work on.
Today I went to multiple stores in the morning but couldn't do any because the ladies either were to old or there were other people nearby the girl I wanted to do to but later on at work I managed to get 1 in to a girl sitting in her car and she was confused and asked me in the end what this was for? I just left after. After work I was driving by a few stores and than went into a grocery store but it was dead so I was leaving and there was a older lady in her 40s probably and we were both on our way to the car, so she looked at me and we made eye contact and she said did you hear me talking to myself about money? lol I just smiled and than introduced the drill, I went 3 times and she said she didn't get the point of it and was confused. Than I just continued the convo about the money and she said she was just counting how much she spent. I need to learn to embrace the awkwardness that comes after and not use fillers.
Anyways Im going to be redoing this drill. Adios amigos

Hey man it looks like you're making some great progress. I havent read your full journal but I'm proud of you for sticking with it.
The "who's your daddy" drill is notoriously awkward lol. I remembered getting kinda stuck on it too, but what helped was to really just embrace the ridiculousness of it and try to make it fun/funny.
Just be sure to not to take yourself so seriously when doing something this silly, that was one of my big take aways from Andy from KYIL way back in the day when he was doing the program (for the record, Andy is a notoriously positive and good natured guy)

@jstone thanks brother, definelty need to stop being uptight about it and let go a little.

Hey guys
Been going through some things mentally/emotionally (family,financial problems) but I have still been doing the drills and keep in mind that my headspace is not in the best place when doing these drills but the key is to keep going regardless. Today I did 2 employee girls in the mall and before that I did 3 employee girls at different retail stores 3 days ago. Today when I went in the mall I missed many opportunities but than I passed by a cologne store and saw the girl alone on her phone but went passed her thinking ill find another one but ik that she was a good opportunity so I went back and told her im stealing 2 mins of your time and went w the drill and she told me her dads name and that he worked at a construction company and she was really cool and receptive about it. I gave her a high 5 and left than I ended up doing another girl working at some ice cream shop and went through the whole set 3 times and she said her dad works at septa and she was confused the first 2 times I said it.Than I went to a lady on a stand and said were going to play a game and she said she wasn't interested so I left. Anyways im still going to do these drills regardless if its 1 girl at a time but ik for sure im getting this shit done and im not gonna disappear and Im seeing it through all the way
Adios

Hey guys
I have done 2 sets of days 27 in past week and half. The reaction from 1 asian girl when I started flexing she started laughing. The rest were pretty neutral responses. Im going to go for a set tomm.

UPDATE

Ive done only half a set since I last posted. Im also doing another program which is 75 hard phase 1. I honestly have been slacking because I realized how bad my paranoia has been acting doing the drills and I have to deal with other issues so I can fix it and continue the drills. nonetheless im still going on and finishing the program.

Ditch the program dude. If you can do this shit then you can easily go up to a girl and say "hey i thought u were cute", have a 1 minute conversation with her, and ask her for her number.

Just my thoughts, take it or leave it
