Is Approaching People Weird?

In today's world, some people find approaching weird.

'Why do you think that is?'

Because times have changed.

Back in the days, in order to be social, someone had to break the ice in real life.

But nowadays, its a tad bit different.

There are dating apps, sliding in dm's, adding people on LinkedIn etc.

So many people may consider approaching in real life 'weird.'

But that is good for you.

In the social dynamics world, there are 2 kinds of weird.

• Bad weird - boring, narcissistic, awkward

• Good weird - a little goofy, unpredictable humor, and bold.

'Bold is weird?'

Bold is weird for society because it's out of the norm.

Don't believe me? Observe closely when you go out in social situations.

The majority are staying in their cliques.

But if you look even closer, there are a handful of people exiting their cliques to introduce themselves.

Whenever their is a minority vs the majority situation, the minority is considered the weird party by the majority..

But in this case, the minority are giving themselves a competitive advantage.

Good weird = Being memorable

The person who breaks the ice & introduces them self has courage.

Especially considering they have every vehicle out there not to do it. They could easily stay home, watch TV all day & only contact people digitally.

But they choose to exercise their internal world.

Approaching is not a out of norm thing for socially intelligent people.

It is simply a way of life.

If they see someone with a nice shirt on, they'll let them know.

If they are in a Uber ride, they will ask the driver how their day is going.

If they see someone is new to a group, they will make that person feel at ease.

Aim to be the handful of people who say 'hello' first.

This is a cheat code to building social intelligence faster.

And it exercises your confidence along the way.

You'll notice you become more charismatic, funny and will have better body language.

No need to rush it, just spark a conversation with 1 person a day.

Within the first 10 days, you'll want to bump it up to 2 people a day.

Then 3... and so.

Soon enough, approaching will never will be weird again.

Your subconscious mind will view it as what it should've viewed it as from the very beginning.

Bold.

Till tomorrow.
