Can you believe that it is Labor Day Weekend?

Where did the summer go?

Todays blog is perfect for this weekend.

One of the best things to do is to play tourist in your own town.

Walk around your town on a Saturday and pretend that you’ve never been there before. Why? It will force you to ask for directions and recommendations and to converse with people that you haven’t talked to before.

Maybe you can make this an adventure with somebody. Pretend like you’ve never been there before. Not only will you meet interesting people, but you will also learn things about your town that you probably didn’t already know.

Just because you have lived somewhere your whole life does not mean that you know every restaurant! It doesn’t mean you’ve been to every little shop, or explored every nook and cranny.

By acting like a curious, lost tourist, you will be able to meet more people all day long, which will build up your social network.

If you start connecting with a woman that lives in your town and you want to ask her out, you can say, “look, give me your number, I want to get together with you. I live here, but I made a pact with myself today that I was going to re-explore my town. I’ve lived here my entire life and I wanted to feel like a tourist again. And since you were nice enough to share all of your information, I would like to take you out and show you one of MY favorite places.”

She’ll ask what it is, and you can say, “surprise! Give me your number and we’ll get together next week.” That is how you do it – turn it into a game and still be honest.

Client: Have you done that before?

David: Oh yeah. It works really well. I wasn’t lying to her – I was just doing a social experiment for myself.

Also, it tells the woman that you are self-evolved. You are showing her that you are a man that actually thinks outside the box.

It takes a lot of guts to pretend to be a tourist. How many times have you been with a woman who has complained that she hasn’t seen your vulnerable side? Pretending to be a tourist is a way to show a woman your vulnerability.

All right, let’s go take a walk!
