Hey everyone. Please bear with me over the next week or two. I am re-locating the blog to my own hosting service. It will be a bit before i am able to post a new article. Until then I encourage those of you who have not read the archives to go back and check them out. Not too far back ;) There should be a disclaimer on some of those early posts that I no longer think or teach that way. Still interesting at least to me to see where i came from.
See you on the new site!

Hi Dan, I was wondering do the old posts move along to the new site, will they stay here or will they be deleted?
Hey Dan!
I don't have a comment to a specific post, I just want to thank you for all the work you put out on this site, and want you to know that it is really appreciated. In the last couple of months my life and thinking has changed to the better in a way I never imagined it could.
Your postings and other CA-related material has been an important part, like a catalyst, for this change in my life.
So, a big Thanks! and keep up the good work!

Hey Dan,
It's probably just pouring a bucket of water into the sea (not to mention Celine beat me to it ;) ), but I would like to thank you. Sincerely thank you.
I'm 20 and a college student. I've been struggling with the classic "existential crises", and the entire better-half aspect of my life lately. I read through a lot of books (like psychology, sociology and even The Game and some of the "community stuff"). The practical side of the latter motivated me to start internalizing it. But I felt unfillfulled and like I was not only manipulating myself but the so-called 'sets' as well. Needless to say that didn't get me really far.
Then I stumbled across CC and more specifically your blog. A new world opened and I realized I found someone who thought the same about these things as me, but who was so much more eloquent in putting it out there and who had already done the transformation. No preset routines, no condedescending terminology or talking (which was what I disliked the most about the entire "community".
In short: your stories are inspiring and I aspire to better my life by being friendly and warm to everyone and being more social to the people I meet, both the faceless and the ones I know better already. Valueing people and their unique personalities and trying my own best to bring it out in them, by putting myself out there first. Relating on a deeper level, which is something that struck HOME with me! Living alone in a big city, attending a big college: it's easy to start feeling like a number, just another gear in the machine, only touching the other gears in preset ways in order to keep the big megamachine rolling. NO MORE! It's time for peace, love and rock & roll!
If everyone would just read your posts and advice and would start making even just the smallest changes in their day-to-day life, the sun would shine on the rainiest of days. The world would be a happier place. No fairy-tale land of sugar and spice, but a place of understanding where nice is the default setting and people feel confident enough to firmly, but friendily and confidently word their displeasures with each other's behaviors (instead of waking up one morning and shooting half of their high school).
I will keep working on it day to day, hoping to one day inspire others like you have inspired me. Give and receive tenfold! Communism with a hippy-twist ;).
Rock on and take care!

Hi Dan!
I doubt you remember me, but I was in a workshop you did last June in Seattle. Things got busy in my life after the workshop, so I didn't get much of a chance to practice this stuff until about a month ago.
Let me just say...WOW! If you had told me a year ago that my dating life could be this active, I wouldn't have believed you! I'm having so much fun in life right now! I even got inspired to start my own blog to document my progress through the dating world.
It looks like you're setting up a new website now. I can't wait to see it. In the meantime, it looks like I have a few months of catching up to do in your blog.

PS: I wanted to add that I literally just got back from a party where I got a phone number from a girl that is my perfect 10! I owe it all to you and what you taught me! Thanks man!
Looking forward to further posts.
Great Blog!
