In this free guide, I give you nine very specific messages that you can send to
anybody you want to attract to create more attraction. Go check it out.
9texts.com is completely free and you can be reading them in the next 60 seconds. Cause you didn't meet someone yet,
that doesn't make you any more of a failure than anyone else.
You've got to lose that shit.
It doesn't... What does it mean?
What does it mean? To me, it's just not interesting.
Being single, oh, you're still single?
It's just not...
It's just not an interesting comment to me
some of the most interesting people I know are still single some of the most amazing people I
know are still single and maybe they'll meet someone at some point and well you know then
when they're with someone you know you create a story around that. Of course, they've found someone. They're amazing.
But we don't think of the whole time that they were single and we could easily have gone, you're so amazing.
How come you're still single?
I just don't get it.
If someone like you could be single, I'm fucked.
Right?
Life is, you know, on that level, life is long.
Like, I think life is ridiculously short,
and I wish there was more of it,
but on that level, we're going to live many lives, most of us.
And Esther Perel, someone I love,
she said we're all going to have many different relationships, all of us.
It's just some people are going to have it with the same person and other people are going to have it with different people.
So even the people you know that
are in relationships are constantly having new relationships because the relationship evolves
every year. It changes. The people change. That's the one thing you can never take for granted in
a relationship is someone's going to stay the same. They're not. So even within relationships
that we might envy, those people change over the course of that relationship. It's not easy.
It's not just
smooth sailing. Those things, they're always adjusting to a new norm. So we just have to lose
this, you know, it can't be that you feel like a failure because you haven't found someone. That
cannot be the case. The wins have to be more interesting than that. The wins have to be who
you've become, what you're capable of adding as value to someone's life,
the opportunities you create,
the person, you becoming a person
that would be incredibly valuable in a relationship,
you recognizing what is valuable about you in a relationship
and giving that to people
even when you're not in a relationship,
whether it's friends, family, and so on.
All of that, those are all interesting wins.
Finding a partner, you know, that's amazing. But whenever someone comes to me and says,
Matt, I found this amazing guy because of you. I love it. I love it. It brings me a lot of joy.
But also, I'm like, I'm just as excited when someone says, I've become this amazing person
because of your videos, but I haven't found anyone yet those two things are equivalent to me that one
that one doesn't win because that person found someone because the other person
if they've done the work if they've got the growth out of it they could be two
days away from meeting that person they could be three months away from meeting
that person so what I'm gonna to judge, oh, almost there.
Almost there. Just tell me when you've got the person. No, I don't get, I don't care.
I don't care. I don't use that judgment for myself and you shouldn't use that judgment for you.
