I’ve been listening to some blues music… Yeah! The number goes like this…
“Before you accuse me,
Take a look at yourself,
You say I’m spending my money on other women,
You’ve been taking money from someone else.”
How poignant is that? That’s how it is with quite a lot of romance turn bad out there.
They accuse one another but never for a moment stop to take a look at themselves. That’s the topic for today.
Imagine, you sitting there wondering and thinking about your woman.
What is she doing?
What is she up to?
Is she taking money from someone else?
BUT are you spending your money on somebody?
Consider that for a moment. It maybe only talking about money but on a deeper level what are the emotions and feelings involved?
Here’s Giaco’s Quick Tips to being Mindfully Aware and Productive
1) Stop Wasting your Time Thinking and Pondering - DO SOMETHING
That thing is all about being honest with yourself and being sincere to the woman of your life. Don’t go for cheap thrills or YIKES!!! Read books that tell you all the sneaky tactics like - Increase the value of the loot by telling her friends. That’s horribly horribly WRONG.
When you do something - do it out of your heart. Unconditionally and without any hope of reciprocation. Of course, it’s wonderful to have it reciprocated but if you don’t get that. Don’t kill yourself over it.
Decide for yourself IF your thoughts are just wanton musings. Sometimes, musings can make you go crazy. Like they say - The demons are only in your head.
2) Listen More and Talk Less
Most women love a good listener. Someone who doesn’t judge them for what they are saying. Someone who accepts her for who she is and what she stands for. In other words, a supportive man. Now, being supportive doesn’t mean that you have to be her lapdog. Be supportive and be a good listener. At the same time, you have to know who you are, and what you stand for. What’s acceptable and what’s not. Stick by that principle and you’ll be fine.
3) Stay Calm and Collected at All Times
Sometimes, she may something that doesn’t rub you the right way. Maybe she had a bad day at work, maybe she’s having the cramps. They shoot their trap out of frustration and irritation. By RE-ACTING over what she said is COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE.
It will only escalate the situation beyond hope and redemption. Stay away for a while if you have a hot temper. Just tell her honestly and nicely that you need some time to understand her point. Go away for a while after that - get a hold of your emotions. You’re the MAN and a Man has ultimate control over his emotions. That will take a hell lot of practice though. Practice, Practice, Practice and remember to be kind to yourself.
4) Stick to your Principles
A man without principles is like a tree being swayed by the winds. That is not attractive at all. Think of yourself as a Solid Oak or a Giant Pillar of Strength. Every woman would love a strong man who has principles. Enuff said.
5) Be Willing to Change
This may sound confusing because Giaco says to be strongly principled but at the same time be willing to change. “You’re confusing me, Casanova.” I hear you say.
Let me explain… if you don’t change when it goes beyond reasonable doubt that things are wrong. Your old ways of thinking are no longer valid - then adapt and evolve. Nothing is worse than a stubborn man who insists that he’s right all the time. He will also be a bore to talk to, unwilling to have an open-mind and accept good advice. This just reminds me of those fudley-dudley old wigs in the 18th century. They think they are right all the time. That my dear readers, is plain silliness. Like the ostrich that sticks it’s head in the ground. Adapt and Change but always remember what you stand for.
There you go. 5 Quick Tips to work on. It will take a while before you can be a Master at these things. BUT anything is worth it, is always worth fighting for… or in this case, working towards.
How does this tie in to Romancing the Woman?
Your woman has to like what she sees in you first and if you don’t have what she wants… it’s Sayonara, Dud !!
Yours honestly,
Giacomo
