Not saying "ah man who gives a **** why bother do anything" while your subconscious is only doing that to protect you from failing. What I've gathered from what you've said now, and many many times in the past as that the reason you need to try and fight so hard is that you have a DEEP unconscious resistance to both success and failure. I'm pretty sure Shannon has alluded to this in the past. So you have to fight tooth and nail to keep yourself out of apathy, and as soon as you let go of that fighting you drop straight into that "why bother" state.
Maybe. I doubt it though. The desire is still there, but I don't care to act on it i.e. IDGAF

And it was because, as you've said in the past, you didn't really believe you would succeed. Therefore you had nothing to lose. As soon as things got further in you said you started to believe you would succeed and lay her. At this point you started having something to lose and therefore became more outcome dependent. I've experienced this many times.
See and THIS is a valuable insight and one that is overlooked, but I don't think it's outcome dependence.
Perhaps the key isn't to NGAF, perhaps the key is to never believe anything will work but do it anyways.
I've noticed this in sales too. If I am confident, nothing seems to work. If I feel like shit and don't believe I have anything of value for people, they buy like crazy.
That's not OI, that's some other magical f*ckery that has not been named yet. But it is DEFINITELY a "thing".

You disagree on the basis that you "used to be outcome independent" and didn't have women. I argue that you weren't really outcome independent, you just supressed your desire very deeply and strongly during that time period. The subconscious is a very powerful thing, you can't just force yourself into a certain state and pretend the subconscious isn't carrying all kinds of garbage. I'm not sure why your running subs if you don't believe that.
Tony Robbins would disagree with you. You absolutely can force yourself into a certain state, I've done it myself.
The key is to find what is what works. And I'm giving you examples of times OI and Confidence did NOT work, and you're just ignoring them so that you can keep your narrative.
Like I said, it's probably something else that has not been named yet.

This isn't entirely true. Of course showing the customer you care about them is good BUT I've had days (especially when I first started out) where I only wanted the sale, customer be damned, and they still bought.
I don't think your motives matter, just so long as the end goal is in sync with the customer's end goal, and the customer can tell you care about THAT (the end goal they want i.e. the OUTCOME

). I suspect it works the same with women.
If that is the case, then OI wouldn't get you the girl as much as being in sync with her would.
I strongly suspect this is the case. Even Dzemoo said he had to be beta to get some girls because it's what they wanted.

Lol, no. How is CARING not giving a f*ck?
