Follow up... of DAY 5 - DAYTIME
So my feel of Chinese women were true. They are really bad at english and I actually also knew that from my 3 cousins...
I went all around Sanlitun Village but couldn't find what I was looking for. Then I remembered a great mall in the middle of the Villages, so I went there. You can haggle about the price there :-)
It was an interesting experience, because if you bid too low you'll just be seen as disrespectful and look like a fool. It was actually uncomfortable to haggle but it saved me money and gave me reference. How interesting it is, the way to haggle.
You are the CEO of a company and the buyer and you got to remember that, if not.. it's easy to throw away money you could have saved.
Some of the same principles used in game:
- buyer, seller dynamic
- empathy - you got to be considerate of the seller
On to meeting women:
There was one pretty Chinese girl working in an Asian version of Victoria Secret lingerie. I walked past the store 4 times! 1.st time I hesitated and didn't walk in the store even though she was the only one there. The other times, there were colleagues/the manager or customers. So the 4.th time I thought about some strong motivation I could give to myself. It was not about the girl anymore.. it was about DEATH.. If I did not talk to her, I would DIE. So I said to myself "GUN TO YOUR HEAD" and right after I walked in the store, despite the fact that she was helping out two customers.
I walked straight over to her and said, "Hi.. you look very beautiful!" she looked at me then down like being submissive while trying to understand what I was saying mixed with confusion. After I said it, I stood for 1-2 seconds and left. Somewhere in my body it felt like the first time I cold-approached a girl and gave her a compliment (which was also in China) but the nervousness was dampened a lot and I actually only felt very little of it. My subconscious thought it was weird what I did, so I quickly removed myself but at least I did what I needed to do.
As far as meeting women outside stores, I didn't approach any. I did though enjoy the presence of some women after I'd been standing my ground at an open space on the street for a while.
Key notes: Being at the hotel, isolated for 2 days and going out afternoon is a rough state of mind to be in, if you have nothing but yourself to rely on meeting women you do not know. NOTICED: Waking up early and going out since at least noon, while having enjoyed the presence of nature or women, I'll naturally have more desire and easier time to meet women throughout the day.

1. Do whatever you want.. risk whatever your gut tells you because.. you know you have good intentions.
2. Pressure forms the man.
3. Clarity gives space for better decisions.
