Get Strategic: Take Responsibility For Your Dating Success written by Melanie Schilling
You need to take responsibility for your dating and the following YouTube video provides the necessary background. So, the take-away message here is get strategic!
In Issue 1, 2 & 3 of Great Health Guidetm, I discussed important points in my three articles about Dating Yourself, Positive Dating Mindset and Personal Dating Brand. It’s time to apply the lessons from these articles and convert them into action.
When you decide to date strategically you start to play a ‘quality’ game rather than the frustrating numbers game or ‘quantity’ game of dating. Once you have defined your own dating brand ‘who am I’ and clarified your dating niche ‘who and where is he’, then you start fishing in a much smaller dating pool. And this is a GOOD THING.
Your mission becomes about screening potential dates against your own criteria, rather than simply responding to the men who show interest in you. You become empowered, have a greater sense of control over the process and have more fun.
