Stop being a loser

16th September 2022 Paul Chris Jones

Dear Diary. I've decided to stop being a loser. I don't know how that works, though. How does one stop being a loser? It's not something you can just stop doing. But maybe I'm different. My loserism is because of my lack of confidence. But I can get confidence by getting big muscles and by applying testosterone gel to myself. But it's not just that. Up to now in my life, I've tried to avoid socializing with people and talking to people because I've assumed that they'll just be bored or annoyed. And I've realised it is the opposite: when you go out of your way to avoid talking to people, that's when it annoys them because they think you are rude. So what you have to do is precisely the opposite. You have to talk and you have to be like Tony Stark from the Avengers. I have to be more like Tony Stark. Everyone loves Tony Stark. You have to be confident. People like confident people. By being confident, you're not detracting from the world's happiness. you're adding to the world's happiness because by being confident you're making people happy because people like confident people.

In the Bodycombat class, at the gym, I'm always self-conscious, too self-conscious to talk to people, because I worry that if I talk to someone, they'll think I'm weird. And I worry that by talking to any of the women, it'll mess up any future chances of having sex with her. But today, I had another epiphany. I realised I'll never actually have sex with any of the women at the gym because I already have a girlfriend. And therefore I don't need to worry about how I come across to them. Ironically, that makes me feel more confident and more friendly.
