What about AM5 do I need to fix in AM6?

Are you sure thats the way you want to go about it Shannon? A minimalist approach?

Remember you said this is the last version you want to build. I think everyone here wouldn't mind waiting a few weeks longer to get the most maximized optimal version possible, instead of a rush job minimalist approach. Hell I'd even wait a few months extra if it means the final product will be more complete and better.

I know some setbacks in the development process are annoying and frustrating, but hang in there. being a programmer myself I've kicked myself in the face thousands of times because of my perfectionalist attitude, up until screaming in frustration that "I just want this thing to fuckin' work, f*** the extras, just make it work!". Eventually, as soon as I do get it working..the perfectionist in me comes out again and makes me go for the maximum possible anyways.

Perfection > Minimalist everyday

In the end, you will thank yourself for having taken the extra time and effort to make the best possible complete version, instead of a minimalist version..

I agree with this FULLY.

I myself am frustrated as all hell right now and just want to be done with my women issues, however, I'm taking the time and advice of my coach to make sure I learn what I need to.

There's no use getting frustrated and letting that frustration kill your own chances at greatness.

Speaking of which, we talked about being present today.

I had no idea that one could (and SHOULD) pay attention to what a woman is saying and respond to the things she brings up. I always thought this was following her lead, but so long as you stay at your own state/energy level and not let her effect you emotionally, you SHOULD be present with what she is saying and doing.

We should put something like that in the sub too. Make it so that we are hyper observant and make witty/cocky/funny/detached comments about what is going on or what a woman is saying or doing. Like I said, I had no idea, and I wonder how many other people had no idea as well.

1. End jealousy issues.

Sometimes I still get a bit jealous over my successful friends, although that has dropped a lot. Hopefully AM6 can destroy this issue completely. Being yourself and become completely secure. Understand that nobody is better than you. Don't give a f**k attitude etc.

2. Procrastination / Motivation boost

3. Destroy neediness / approach anxiety.

4. Enjoy going out by oneself

Thanks.

AM6.0 should amplify the effect even more. Sometimes I still get quite a bit lazy. Really wish to be productive all the time.

I also second the motion to make us more productive. AM seemed to make me apathetic to a deadly fault, as I just preferred to rest on my laurels.

Having said that, the productiveness should be towards things we want to accomplish, not just a general need to be productive, because that, imho, is just as useless as not being productive at all.

As for neediness, another thing I learned today was that I communicate neediness, even when I am not needy at all. There were several times online where I told my coach I was not needy in the slightest, but he assured me I was coming across that way. I wonder if it has to do with me trying to get other people to understand me or just investing too much into the interaction. Either way, there is proof that one can still come across as needy even when they aren't, so that should be dealt with as well.
