We’re getting somewhere good you guys. I’m so glad y’all got creative with partnering. How fun is it to watch you solve problems? VERY! : )

Moving along, we have come to the part of this UCP when we leave the shores of what you know about yourself, to set out into the waters of how women work. You’ve befriended your core beliefs in the almighty journal, which is about to go from being a cornerstone building block to becoming the sea worthy reporting register and travelogue.

You are partnering up with crew mates and have begun to set direction for your goals for this month. This ship is underway gentlemen.

In these past few days getting to know you, I've enjoyed directing the crew in the formation of this foundation, but now I want to hand you the wheel while I get ready to sing a little siren song. I am going to share with you a thing or two about women and let you in on some of our secrets. So in bikini and sunscreen at the helm of this vessel, I‘m about to tell you how it is for women, and to show you some things you may never have seen before.

And I have no doubt that you are all sooo sea-worthy

So will 26 more days be enough? No! Its NEVER enough, says she.

Coaching nugget: Hidden treasure about women in that brief Q & A…. Women ALWAYS want more. More of one thing or another. Have you noticed that? By our nature, its hard to get us to a feeling of being completely fulfilled and satisfied. We can always find something else to adjust to suit our changing wants. Or have a little more this. Or a little different that. and on and on .. Trick is, don’t take it as you are not enough! It’s her nature, not your deficiency. Try enjoying her constant appetite!

------------

So!

Now we move out of port and

We begin to go out of guy-places and into women-spaces

Places that get you exactly what you need right now.

We’ve seen some maps of where you’ve been.

We’ve drafted skeleton diagrams of where you want to go.

We’ve got ship mates and purposeful ports to plunder.

We’re ready to set sail and stay the course for exploring.

And we are all totally and completely willing to acknowledge the fact that feminine sea creatures are completely uncharted territory. Right?

Ok, I’ll give you another hint about women with my next point. Paying attention?

I’m going to need your help navigating this adventure.

I need your help through your curiosity.

That’s the key I flash before you now. Curiosity. Wonder. Openness to the unknown. Watch it glisten before you. It leads to the deepest depths of where we are going.

I need your curiosity to guide me deeper, to give you the real treasure you want and need. All women need this from you guys! You'll see how and what I mean a lot more in the next few weeks as you learn more about navigating these wild open seas.

I may sound like I am speaking some bizarre female-alien-speak right now, but I know

by the end of the month you will get this point to the core of your being. You’ll be able to hear through all the feminine poetic swan song and topsy turvy waves, what is she really meaning.

For now, just knowing you are on the voyage is enough. You are enough. Breathe it in. Head up to the main deck and let the salty air in. Open your heart. There's so much to share and learn. You have within you such great power to take us deeper than we can take ourselves! Here we go! Lets learn how...

So tell me, tell all of us on your crew, what do you want to know?

Today’s assignment : Please reply to this post with your deepest questions about women. Not whole stories, unless absolutely necessary to ask the question, please.

Take a few moments, get real quiet inside, and let your questions come from a quiet and deep place. Let frantic and anxious feelings pass, and breath until you feel your deeper core, your masculine presence, your open hearted wonder.

Ask from there --- a question that can really make a difference for you.

Then, in your journal, write about some questions you have about women, noticing if they come from a high and head trippy kind of fast intellectual space, or if they come from deeper within you. Ask questions that are old, questions that are new. And lastly, answer this one of mine—why haven’t these questions been answered in your life yet?

Without your clear curiosity to guide us into the open spaces where we can't tell from south, east from west, we could get lost thinking about women. Without your truth desire to explore pulling us deeper, we could get stuck in the shallows till we’re all sick to death of it.

Set sail! Take the lead ! Captain!

What is it I need to know to connect with you (a woman) on a deeper level?

What do I need to be to keep you attracted, intrigued and in love with me…?

What do I have to be/do to give you what you crave most…?

What is it a woman wants from me more than anything else…?

I'm sure I will think of more as I go along...

A lot of the attractive women I’m interested in have boyfriends.  I automatically consider them to be off limits in that case and leave them alone.  Is that the way to handle it?  When a woman is losing interest in her boyfriend, does she dump him and spend time alone or is she looking around for a replacement and sending out signals to guys who she might find interesting?  How do you handle the situation if you feel she is sending you signals?
