Your job has a CEO, who would have people at different levels of the organization that is under his direction. At a certain point of time, the CEO could decided to promote someone up or demote someone as well. While all of this is going on, there will be people putting in applications to join the CEO’s organization.
Dating is the same way because you have the power to do what you want. For example, if you are single, you are going to try to talk to as many women as you can. This is what I would call entry level because they are just coming into your company. Now as time passes by, you might start to like one of the women and want to make her your girl.
So that means you would promote to a supervisor/manager role in your organization. Even though she has been put in that role, your human resources department still needs to remain open. That means you should still be interacting and taking phone numbers to keep your skills sharp. If you get to the point where you want to marry her, that’s another promotion. That means she has become the vice president of your company. She should know almost everything about you and how the corporation works.
So kings, this why is why I say you should view yourself as a corporation. The roles and time frames might be a little different from the ones you might use and that is fine. This is just the blueprint that you use when you start to arrange the women in your life.
