Still getting my feet wet and experimenting:

---------------------

Location: McDonald's

Me: HI

Worker: Hello

Me: Yes I would like to know that If I order 2 big mac's would it me possible for me to do it myself ?

Worker: What do you mean? ( lol )

Me: Well I would want to go in the kitchen and cook my own meat !

Worker: Euh....let me ask my manager?

Me: ok

Manager comes over.....I explain him my request.

Manager: Well if it was my restaurant I would've let you but for now its not possible.

Me: Ok then I'll have a Sunday.

Result: REJECTED.

In overall I felt a little more anxiety because people around me were watching and just looking at me.

Outcome: For my real 30 day challenge I need more situation were I don't just escape the situation when im done. Staying with my discomfort is the key.

* I NEED IDEAS ! ! !

AHahaha thats hilarous! I was going to ask if there were people around, but you answered my question at the end. I totally agree, if you could stay in the discomfort zone, you could really grow. I'm talking about that zone where your in total terror that others are watching and judging you. I imagine it wouldn't be as bad when you're actually purposefully putting yourself into it.

Keep up the good fight man! Keep us posted!

Isn't the whole goal of this to make friends or get a g/f? I don't see how being a weird person in businesses and on buses is going to get you a social life?

I can handle rejection as long it's not from a woman I'm interested in or someone I want to be friends with. It seems putting yourself in a position with the intention to make friends or talk to women would be better than going to stores and making a fool out of yourself.

Making yourself a joke in a place will just make the people there think you are annoying in most cases. Outgoing people usually don't do that. They usually talk to people as friends or flirt with women. They don't try to get rejected, they try to succeed socially.

Me: I wanted to know If I could get behind the counter and serve costumers. I want the whole "experience"....I would only stay for like 1 hour or two.

Clerk: Ok well you can come back tomorrow when the boss is here. He could maybe help you.

Me: Alright but your sure I can't do it now?

Girl: Yeah sorry I ask my manager and we don't have anymore.

Its easy to ask for things I find. As the days go I plan on getting in more " anxiety provoking" situations. Overall Im happy that I started this....

Lol i first read 'Erection therapy ' that it's for guys who have problems with that thingy.

Haha, I guess I'm just tired, I can't read. Wether I need glasses probably or I should get some rest. It's like 1 am.

I will check out the Rejection therapy tomorrow. and I'll see if I'd join since it's for girls too ::p:
