Hey fam - I had these shot a few days ago, what are your thoughts? I've compiled 2 different moodboards for the gram. Let me know what you think.

@Ids Boonstra The profile picture is wank I know, I’m referring to the photos, could you elaborate more so on the photos whether they’re up to par? Anything that should be removed or adjusted? Thanks.
IG Practice: A Week of Daily Posting
Well, while I'm still working on getting fifteen quality Lifestyle, Candid and Preselection still photos for my IG (huge thanks to @Anthony Kenyon-Slade , @A M and @Trevor Low for all your help so far), I've been wanting to get in the habit of posting. I wound up printing out the write-ups for the Off-Market Dating course (I find studying text easier than video sometimes) and making some notes. From what I gather, the general ideal is to post three times a day plus spend around fifteen minutes responding to any engagement. Right at the moment, I want to focus on building the basic routine, so I'll stick to one update per day plus engagement response and then reflect/build from there. As I work from home, showing off an adventurous lifestyle is somewhat tricky, but I think I can make up for it on the weekends - particularly tonight. Thanks to a new connection, I'm going to a fashion industry networking event on a harbour cruise; I'm manning his camera while he does some Man-on-the-Street chats with guests (Man-on-a-Boat?), so opportunities for us both to show competence running the camera (and I can get some reveal-style stories in). Plus, before the event, I want to get another walking vlog or two in the can for my YouTube channel, which I can then slice up for reels. As for the rest: - I have some back content that I can use, including seven episodes of a self improvement video podcast and over a hundred of my old show from ten years ago (though that's audio only, so I'd need to do some clever graphical stuff there). - There are some decent not-quite-grid photos from the last few shoots that I can run as part of carousels. - There's also the next Sydney meetup in a week, at which Trevor is planning to do help us do some genuine Man on the Street video. - I've got some photos of my dog Sookie and I, plus a vertical video I took of her birthday in April which, would make a nice carousel.

This is solid dude! You have this nailed down. I’m also in the process of updating my IG right now so finding a photographer is like fishing with a needle in a haystack almost until you find somebody who can shoot. Drop down your IG and I’ll check it out. I’m located in VIC - 2 worlds apart because you’re located in NSW. Best way I was able to connect with a few photographers was through Facebooks photography groups and admin pages. Curated directly to TFP or paid shoots will help anybody find photographers.

@Rob Farquhar Thanks Rob - I had a flick through - Instagram is popping, you also got a podcast 🙌🏻
Your Purpose
Will always be more important over chasing women. Everything you do for a woman is temporary. The money you spent? Forgotten. The sacrifices you made for her? Irrelevant like they didn't happen. The favors done? Erased from their memory. Women being emotional creatures, yesterday doesn't always count. It's what they "feel" in the moment. It's what you provide today, so in the end it doesn't truly matter. Purpose and excellence over women Gentlemen. If you evolve, women will anyway be a byproduct from your results. Onwards.

Nailed on the head. From my experience - women are a byproduct of what you’ve cultivated and tend to come into your life when building systems. My turning point (or at least the time to which it made me understand this concept) was “pickup” can only do so much. While it may inherently improve your dating experience for example - calibration, eye contact, just to name a few, building permanence and long lasting relationships wasn’t a thing. Building relationships and establishing values will ultimately build permanence and will have an overall effect on your psyche - how you perceive and meet people, or at least this is how I’ve experience it.
October 2025 Social Circle Game Report III: I Had The Entire National Stadium To Myself & Met An Olympic Coach
20 October - 26 October 2025 Gained 341 Instagram followers in the last 7 days. Went to an event in Lima and a technology company gave me and my daughter some gifts just randomly. They gave my daughter a school bag, a tablet for writing and drawing, USB charger and a bunch of other stuff. And they gave me a mouse pad. I guess 80% of success is really just showing up... On the way home, I stopped by the Estadio Nacional (National stadium) and asked a guy a question about an event. He got talking to me and invited me and my daughter inside the stadium itself. I gave his name to the security gate and they let me in. I ended up walking inside the stadium itself and even went inside the VIP areas used by the national team. The stadium is currently being set up for a huge concert (Reggaeton Lima). During this time, I was by myself (And my daughter) just looking for the guy. Then I found where he was... In the table tennis arena part of the stadium. The guy who invited me in turned out to be the Olympic Coach for Peru's national table tennis team, and he has also represented athletes from Puerto Rico, Japan, etc. Played a game against him on the Olympic-standard table tennis table, and he taught me some world class table tennis. Instantly adjusted and noticed the difference. All this because I randomly asked a question to the first guy I could see on the inside of the stadium grounds from me being outside on the street. Absolute madness having the stadium to myself like that, just wandering around. He even gifted me two table tennis balls. He gave me his phone number and offered to give my daughter free classes for table tennis.

Exciting bro! Glad that both you and your daughter got to experience that opportunity. One thing I want to point out was the 80% of success is just showing up - I totally agree. No ifs or buts but taking action regardless of those mental blockades.
zen of social skills
I needed this selfish push to push myself to improve my skills and bother people to learn social skills but now I can let go of that selfishness just go on pure giving if you have any agenda, any pressure, any trace of heaviness — people will feel it. instantly. you can’t hide energy. the paradox is that you perform best when you stop performing. you connect best when you stop trying to connect. social mastery is zen: no outcome, no grasping, no self-consciousness — just total giving, total presence, total joy. it’s not about what you say. it’s about the energy behind it. people don’t respond to words — they respond to vibe. if your energy is light, grounded, and giving, you could say almost anything and it lands. if it’s needy, heavy, or tense, even the perfect line fails. social mastery isn’t verbal, it’s energetic. the goal isn’t to say the right thing — it’s to be the right energy.

Totally agree with this. If I could elaborate on this, more so, being able to be fully content with where you are - appreciate your current path regardless if you're achieving your goals or if you're not is key. From my personal experience (years of quote on quote "pickup") is positive vibes will fluctuate from time to time. You won't always feel positive, heck.. times you'll feel negative and fall into negative self-talk, it happens, even happened to me on countless occasions. What I would say is happiness isn't the goal, but rather being content with where you are and moving forward with the intent to develop a better understanding of yourself and others you want to connect with, ultimately, yourself - makes more sense, or at least from my experience it does. From a stylistic point of view, you can then focus on building relationships and cultivating the lifestyle you're eager to build. Speed of implementation is also important, not to jump too off topic, but that feeling of desire and intention may correlate to heaviness and may not necessarily be "zen". It's like throwing a tennis ball at a brick wall trying to break it down - you may come across nervous and or anxious in the beginning and that's completely okay. But ultimately, you'll build calculus on your brain by taking action, that's the only way. Hopefully that helps.
