Hey bro,
In my webinar I hosted last weekend, a guy asked me about dating as an older man. He said that everyone says it's a lot more difficult than when you are younger.
My response: That couldn't be farther from the truth. If anything, as an older man, it is even easier. Older women are more mature and know what they want and don't want, which means they are less likely to play games.
Here's the thing you need to understand, just because everyone is saying XYZ and you keep hearing it everywhere, doesn't mean it's true, especially with all the garbage and lies floating around the internet nowadays. As men, we never want to buy into the illusory truth effect, which is the tendency to believe false information to be correct after repeated exposure.
Always remember that whatever you believe to be true, IS...
It is, what you say it is. And you will always find confirmation from the world for what you are looking for, so be careful.
This leads me to something that I haven't spoken of enough and feel is extremely important to understand, especially with all the negative crap going on in the world.
As we get older, it is far too easy to fall into the trap of buying into the BS of the world and taking everything in life way too seriously. Sure, there is a time and a place to be serious, but over time this eats away at our soul and carries severe consequences for our overall health and well-being.
The Solution? You need to understand the value and gift of embracing a childlike attitude. I can honestly say this is one of my greatest strengths and most attractive qualities, and just happens to be one of the biggest things most guys lack.
Earlier this afternoon I met one of the most beautiful women I have ever laid eyes on, after talking for about an hour she commented on how much she loved my playfulness and said I was like a big kid at heart. Although she was extremely guarded and has had no interest in men for the last 5 years, due to some awful experiences in the past, she was genuinely excited about going out with me.
Being childlike is something that makes you stand out as an individual.
It provides you with a fresh perspective on life by allowing you to see the world with new eyes, free of judgment. It instills a deep sense of wonder and curiosity as you navigate through life, which is incredibly attractive and valuable. This means you are always exploring, always asking questions, and always finding new things to appreciate. This constant search for knowledge and understanding helps us learn and grow organically, making us more adaptable and open to new experiences. We find joy and inspiration in even the most ordinary moments.
This is how I have always found happiness in simple things like the beauty of nature or the joy of play. I enjoy life's small pleasures, and my joy is deep and genuine, coming from a true appreciation for the world around me. When we focus on the beauty and magic within and around us, we are less likely to dwell on negative thoughts or experiences.
This positive outlook boosts our mood and increases our emotional intelligence as we cope with day-to-day challenges.
At our core, we all have this type of childlike outlook on life, but as we age, the conditioning imposed on us often causes many to lose it. It is something I have always had, and as I get older, I realize how valuable, attractive, and rare it truly is.
