- Neediness is based off a lack of fulfillment of needs (physical / emotional)
- In order to effectively combat neediness we need to notice the signs - nervousness, urgency, treating each interaction like it's going to be our last, etc.
- Understand too that neediness can show up in other areas of life, even if we lack neediness in another area
- For instance, you can be great with client acquisition, but horribly needy when it comes to dating
- In general, the solution is look and see - what emotional payoff do I think I'm going to get, if I'm successful? Will I get to feel sexy? Wanted? Attractive? Manly? Etc.
- From there, look to find ways to create that emotional state for yourself.... WITHOUT needing other people to do it. (exercise in podcast)
- Once you can successfully do that, you don't NEED anything - and at that point, the process of dating, growing your business, etc. will become VERY easy and straightforward.
