The Biggest Risk in Dating

A few years ago, I was at dinner with some friends and we were talking about the dates we had been on recently.

Everyone around me was saying that “dating apps suck” and “there’s no one good left”.

I found myself nodding and agreeing with them.

Because at the time, I actually believed that.

The thing is…

Because I believed that…

Guess what my REALITY was?

Dating apps sucked.

I went on dates with people that I didn’t find attractive or interesting.

I ignored red flags and put up with stupid sh*t and subpar people because I didn’t believe I could have what I wanted.

And then one day, I was listening to a podcast and I heard the host share the famous Einstein quote:

“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”

—> I’ve heard that quote a million times before… but this time, something hit different.

I started to change how I approached my dating life, what I believed about it, and that’s when things started to shift.

And they started to shift very quickly.

The biggest risk isn’t making a change, investing in what you want, and/or taking a new approach.

The biggest risk is staying the same.

Doing and thinking all the same things you have been — that hasn’t gotten you the results you wanted.
