Stage 1 Day 4
I've just ended chapter of "The Unchained Man" about goals, mission and time management. I must admit some advises were very interesting and I'm surely will use some of them in the future, especially mission staff. Next chapter is going to be about women, and I'm curious how this will play out. I'll either will put this book on shelf to rot forever of consider it harsh truth that I'll slowly absorb and accept. For now I have open mind and although I have my (justified I think) objections I will read through it whole.
Speaking of which I was thinking about writing and, in extension, asking out girl I've mentioned couple of days back in my LTU journal. Long story short I've talk with her very shortly and she left very good impression in me. I don't know if I should do it though and I don't know if I really want it. These are problems with that idea as well as contrarguments:
-She doesn't even know me and I'd feel almost like a stalker doing so.
*I've done stunt like that already, wrote to a girl week or two after party we've been together and I got a date. Also there are worst situations people write in spotted about, I'd have ball to write to her personally at least.
-She must be already taken or she'd never want to go out with me.
*It's old me talking. Who doesn't try doesn't win. Also her facebook says she's free.
-Timing is bad. On Friday Christmas break begins for 2.5 weeks and I'll spend most of this time at my parents'. She's likely to do the same.
*I don't have to write to her now, I can do this soon after New Year, showing burst of confidence from my part. I don't think time is an ally here though.
-I don't think I want to date anyone right now. To many things to focus on.
*True enough, but even act of asking her out might be beneficial, I'd prove myself I can do it, it's not scary nor hurting.
-I will humiliate myself.
*As if I didn't do worse in the past. Not to mention we don't have common friends so nobody cares.
Decisions, decisions.

Decisions, decisions.
For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.
