The most messy part of learning pickup in Kuala Lumpur

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 8 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I started this because my weekend felt a little stuck, and training seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

I tried this in Warsaw with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

The kindness in this post is lovely. I noticed the same thing in Seoul.
