    "Setting Clear Dating Goals & Standards For Intimacy Success"

    Summary/Abstract

    Duke delate of the Intimacy Liberation Army was talking to a girl who recently ended a relationship due to a lack of clarity in her goals and dating standards. Duke asked her a series of questions to determine her core beliefs, and it became apparent that she didn't have any standards and thus was settling for less than what she wanted. It's important to note that while it's possible to appreciate differences and celebrate them, when it comes to making decisions on how one wants to be treated and whether they are meeting their goals, it comes down to what the other person is willing to give. Thus, it's important to set clear standards to ensure that one is getting what they desire in a relationship.

    The speaker is discussing why people may not be achieving their goals. They point out that one reason could be that people's goals are too unrealistic or fantasy-based, and they don't have the skills to attain them. Another reason is that many people don't know what they want in the first place, only what they don't want. The speaker gives an example of someone who wants a hot partner, but doesn't have the skills to attract one. They suggest that people need to have realistic goals, and better understand what they actually do want in order to achieve them.

    The conversation talks about how many people don't know what they want in a partner, and may just be running away from the pain of past relationships. It explains that this is likely because they haven't had many positive or successful experiences that have worked out in the past. The speaker then gives an exercise to help people figure out what they do and don't want in a partner. They suggest writing down a list of ten things that they would like to have in a partner, and then writing down ten deal breakers. This exercise is designed to help people focus on what they do want and not just what they don't want, and to set boundaries and standards that will help them get the relationship that they desire.

    The conversation focuses on the importance of having clear rules in life that you are willing to enforce. It is essential to understand why these rules are in place, so that when they are challenged, you do not waiver. It is important to have a list of what you do and don't want in life, and to be clear on your deal breakers. This will help you to identify opportunities that check the boxes, rather than settling for less. Externalizing the locus of control in a relationship can lead to feelings of victimhood, so it is important to take ownership of your life and to be clear on what you want in order to get the most out of it.

    Intimacy Liberation Army - S01E31 - How To Establish Your Own Boundaries
    2023/01/22
    "Identifying Personal Boundaries: Tips To Promote Self-Care And Self-Integrity"

    Summary/Abstract

    Duke delate for the Intubacy Liberation Army starts off the conversation by discussing the importance of identifying personal boundaries. He provides tips on how to do this, such as reflecting on one's values and understanding the whys behind them. He then recommends a book called The Values Factor by Dr. John D. Martini, which provides further insight into what drives a person as an individual. Ultimately, this reflection process allows a person to set boundaries that are in line with their values and beliefs, which in turn can help to create confidence, self-integrity, and overall well-being.

    It is important to be aware of one's values and communicate them to others in order to avoid misunderstandings. Communication is better than manipulation, but some people prefer to be mysterious. People should be honest and authentic but also set boundaries if they prefer to keep a distance. Reflecting on one's values can help in determining what kind of communication will be most successful and beneficial for a relationship. People should be aware of what they believe about the world, relationships, romance, and attraction in order to communicate those values to others.

    This conversation discusses the important topic of boundaries in relationships. It is suggested that people should take the time to reflect and do writing exercises to better understand why they believe the way they do. It is also recommended that people pay attention to their feelings, as these can serve as indicators of when boundaries are crossed and when something is uncomfortable. It is further highlighted that in social situations, people should observe themselves and ask why they do not agree with the other person or why they feel uncomfortable, angry, or awkward. Ultimately, it is important to pay attention to one’s values and feelings in order to better understand and create one’s boundaries.

    The conversation centered around the concept of boundaries and how to enforce them. It was emphasized that boundaries are not about manipulation or power games, but rather about opting out of situations and refusing to engage. The speaker then shared a personal example of someone who was consistently mean to him and how he set a boundary by telling them to stop. He was clear in his expectations and communicated that he was not interested in engaging in any banter or mean behavior. The main takeaway was that boundaries are important and are best enforced by being straightforward and clear in your expectations.

    "Increase Resilience With Positive Thinking: Learn Strategies For Reframing, Gratitude, And Optimism"

    Summary/Abstract

    This conversation is about how to use positive thinking to increase resilience. Positive thinking has been studied in depth by Martin Seligman, who started the field of Positive Psychology. Positive thinking and emotions can lead to a sense of well-being and satisfaction in life. Positive thinking helps to create positive perspectives, which makes it easier to overcome challenges and take action. Positive thinking can help create an upward spiral into excellence rather than a downward spiral into despair. Positive thinking can foster resilience, and there are specific methods of positive thinking that can help with resilience.

    Positive thinking is a process that involves consciously shifting perspectives to adopt a positive one. Reframing is a tool used in positive thinking, which is the process of looking at negative or challenging circumstances and intentionally seeking out the positives. An example is if someone is rejected when trying to meet people, they can reframe it as a sign of incompatibility, and that the person wasn’t a good match and would have wasted their time in the future. Reframing can prevent people from getting into a negative spiral and avoiding behaviors that will help them build their skill sets.

    The conversation is about how reframing a situation can help individuals change their behavior and outlook on life. Reframing is a perspective shift, which allows one to view the same situation from a different lens. This shift can help motivate individuals to take on new challenges without fear of failure or rejection. Research has shown that those who reframe problems with curiosity are more likely to solve them and move forward. Reframing can help individuals to stay positive and focus on finding the right people and situations in life instead of getting stuck in a cycle of rejection and disappointment. By reframing situations with curiosity, individuals can find creative solutions to their problems and make progress.

    The conversation discusses the importance of resilience and how having a curious mindset is beneficial for finding solutions and being happier. It also talks about the importance of gratitude and how it can help to develop a brain pattern of looking for the positive rather than the negative. Through curiosity and gratitude, people can become more resilient and better equipped to find solutions to problems and bounce back from difficult situations. Practically speaking, these tools can be used in situations such as rejection and escalation on dates, where they can help to reduce social anxiety and build better rapport.

    Take Action On Dating - Hack Your Brain To Overcome Doubts And Increase Self-Efficacy.

    Summary/Abstract

    Duke delate, a life coach and dating coach, is discussing how to take action in one's dating life. He notes that people often have a freeze response when they encounter someone they are attracted to, and this locks them up and prevents them from accessing the parts of their brain that allow them to freely speak and focus. He suggests that his clients practice and tell stories to get past this feeling. He also notes that simply knowing what to do is generally not their problem, as people can talk for hours with friends. The key is to become decisive and take action in one's dating life.

    Robert Burns said it best - the best laid plans often go awry. This is especially true when you're trying to do something intimidating, like talking to someone you're attracted to. It's easy to know what you should do, but hard to actually do it. This can be especially true for men, who have to approach women in social settings and make sure to be respectful and not make it awkward. It's important to remember that when you're in this situation, you know what to do - but you can't access your skill sets in the moment. The key is to prepare and practice so that you can break through that barrier and confidently introduce yourself.

    This video explores a technique to hack your brain to take action on autopilot without thinking. Duke Delayed explains that there are two sides to the brain: the resourceful side and the non-resourceful side. The non-resourceful side is often attached to fear or a fight-flight response. He then recounts his earliest experiences as a pro dating coach when he would go out and film himself trying to get a girl's phone number and go on a date with her. He explains that YouTube no longer allowed them to do that, but it was a big deal back in the day. The video ultimately shows viewers how to hack their brains to take action automatically.

    The speaker was discussing his experiences with anxiety and imposter syndrome when he was trying to talk to girls. He described how he had a vice reporter and people on YouTube tearing him apart and how it made him anxious when he went out to film new YouTube stuff. He talked about how he had to overcome his fear when he saw a beautiful woman who ended up being an Olympic soccer star. He talked about how he was a pickup artist at the time and had a lot of knowledge and skill sets but still couldn't access it when he was in front of her. He also talked about how he had to drop down to being real and authentic. He also talked about how he was getting in his own way and how he has a degree in psychology, mentors and all the craziness he’s gone through to become good at this.
