Sam de Brito's new book Building a Better Bloke provides some tips for men how to build self-esteem and a life for themselves. He believes that building a life will in turn attract women. This book deals with an aspect of the male weakness – although men appear to be bold and confident, a lot of them are actually not. Many of them also indulge in drunken behaviour. The biggest fear in their life is approaching and striking up a conversation with a woman. He suggests people to have a sense of humour and believes that if you “find a life and you will find a love”. The question, however, is that is this true or the opposite of it (If you find love you will find life). This is perhaps another question like the chicken and the egg that has no clear answer. Brito provides ten tips to lure a woman (1) Stay healthy, (2) Don't abuse alcohol or drugs, (3) Have a job that means something to you, (4) Be busy with your own activities, (5) Be well groomed and clean, (6) Have a sense of humour, (7) Talk to women as individuals, not as a gender, (8) Be a gentleman, (9) Don't mix with loser friends, and (10) Have a clean bedroom, clean sheets - and a lamp to create romantic lighting (ANI).
Reading these ten tips I feel it sounds very stupid, although he is partially right in saying that if you find a life you find love. It makes me think what is life and what kind of “love” that Brito is talking about. Is it just to find a woman or is it more than that? I guess the objective should not be to find the “love of our life” but to “love our life”. And when start loving ourselves we would perhaps find both love and life – a lovely life.
