Man I have been sitting here for hours watching pua videos on youtube.  I know that it's a journey and, technically, I've only begun.  But I think that to look at the person I am now to the person I was 6 months ago there is a HUGE difference.  I am so much more loveable. I convey so much more personality and so much more value to people around me. I have been working really hard on my conversation skills and I am pretty far with that.  I can keep most conversations going pretty effortlessly although I do make mistakes at times.  It's a life-long process.  What I am working on now is pretty advanced. I'm still working on threads, loops, and hooks and I am on the verge of beginning my practice with frame-control.  It's a life-long process and it's tough but nothing worth pursuing isn't difficult.  That's why it's called the Stylelife Challenge.  It's a challenge!  Duh!  I have forgotten what the word challenge meant.  I used to know what it meant but I lost sight of that and am only now regaining sight of it.  The most challenging part of Day 21, in retrospect, was getting myself motivated to give it a shot.  I walked downtown for about an hour and finally just sat beside a woman on a bench and made an observational conversation opener, which blossomed into an hour-long conversation that was extremely interesting for both of us.  During the conversation, I completed my checklist almost effortlessly (except for when she got a call on her cell phone and had to be distracted for a moment: and during that time I pulled my cheat sheet out of my pocket and made sure I wasn't forgetting anything!) But I number closed her and everything went smoothly.  It's much easier to number close after you mention a future interaction early on in the conversation because at the end of the conversation you can mention her tagging along and usually the number close comes naturally!  Off to Day 22.
