Last night, I went to The Vault first with Steve and Mark. We left my place at around 10h20 and we were in The Vault around 11h20. At that time, I had taken 2 Smirnoff Ice.

Later on, around 12h30, we decided to go to Rev. When I got in, I was super excited. Steve bought me a shot when we got in. We started walking around... I high-fived the first set I saw. We kept walking and then I opened a girl sitting by herself at a table with a VIP bottle. Then, I left and I was close to the bar with Mark and Steve.

Then, two girls walked by. As they walked by, I danced funny as usual BUT I accidentally grabbed the first girl. She turned around. She told me it was her Birthday. I went from there. I ended up giving her a hug and kissing her two cheeks. I did the same with her friend later.

Note: I called the cashier "dearest".


ANALYSIS:

In that interaction with those girls, for one of those rare times I was living in the moment. My mind was sharp and quick.

I believe Alcohol helps those who take it because it short circuits their logical brain and connects them with their reptilian brain (instincts). That allows them to Act before they Think (or not think at all). That allows them to Talk before they Think.

Red Bull helps as well but it is not the same. Red Bull helps us have a sharper, clearer mind. Therefore, it helps to Think faster and React faster BUT it does not short circuit the Logical brain.

Could I have slowed time my mind and overthink with those girls? YES.

The key it seems is that we CAN'T Think.

In normal circumstances, our Mind seems to be like a blank sheet of paper with things writing on it slowly. As it does, we read it. But while we do that, we can't be in the present moment.

Rather, our mind has to be so that nothing writes on that sheet. Instead, anything that comes to mind is expressed right away. No need to read it -- we just express it without analysis or reviewing.
