A short YouTube talk by Dr. Aziz advising that successful approaches to people—personal, dating, professional, or casual—depend less on specific lines and more on the approacher’s attitude. He recommends approaching with boldness, warmth, and curiosity, being direct about intent, and using a warm, confident tone when introducing yourself.
Here's the best way to approach people in any situation. Personal, dating, professional, out in the world at a specific type of environment. Doesn't matter. It always works. And here's what it is. You know, back in the day, I wanted the pickup lines when it came to dating and approaching women. It's like, what's the specific thing to say? And what I didn't realize at the time is it's not what you say, it's how you are, who you are as you approach. And the best way to approach people is with boldness, warmth and curiosity. So you don't want to sneakily approach them. It's walking right towards the group, making your intention attention very clear and known. Hey, how's it going? You could say anything at that point. I'm Aziz. What's your name? It doesn't matter. But if you say it with this tone of warmth, directness, you're not trying to hide anything and you're truly curious about who they are. It is the most powerful, most effective best responses are going to come from this way of approaching anyone in the world.
