Realize.

I used to care of what people thought, but now I care more. Envy. Covetousness. Self marketing. None of these support the pre. But rather, to care more is to consciously be aware of your impact on others as well as the impact on yourself. Aware of everything. What you are seeing and hearing especially.

What do you see. That's the surface... Now, go deeper. What do you really see? Faces: squinting, head down, smiling, no eye contact, anger? Are you instigating anything to cause a reaction? How are you being reacted to? How are you not being reacted to? Are you helping or hurting? See them, read them.

In some situations, I've seen guys who think they don't have a chance with a girl "She's to pretty." "I'd say something stupid." Come on, you're scared to say something stupid? Talking to her and being regected is way better than not saying anything at all. You gain experience. Now you can cross that broad right off your list. It's a win-win. But come on guys... What's the root. What is the worst thing that this particular girl could say or do that would cause regret of you asking her something. If you are truely scared of what is to come, maybe you need to reassess your worries.

There's so much fear in this world. Too much fear. But it's not the adrenaline-pumping fear. It's a 'scared of what is to come' type of fear. That's the worst kind. The key is to get past that fear. The fear that binds you and holds you back from advancing as a human being. The only thing holding you back is you. You're above that. Realize it.
