The Basics of Churning - What it's all about.

Churning is a concept that I learned about from some friends - a brother and sister from London. They both met their partners churning and insist it is a great way to work out the kinks and increase your dating confidence. It's not about focusing on your dates, but instead focusing on and feeling great about yourself. Below you will find a direct excerpt from the email I got from my friend outlining how to churn. He alludes to a report being filed on his desk. The ladies of Capital City Churning are going to do one better - we are going to blog about our weekly outings right here. So let's begin...

The basics of churning are this.......you must do everything in your power to go on a date a week. Now this means.....internet dating, speed dating, approaching someone you fancy, etc. It basically is a huge crash course in CONFIDENCE and THERE ARE NO EXCUSES. It's fine not to actually have a date a week as long as you have done ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING you can to get one. It is putting yourself out there and it worked for me wonders, its' not actually about meeting anyone its about getting the confidence and in the routine of dating so that when someone we really like comes along we're ready! Okay so...

TO DO:

1. SIGN UP FOR ONLINE DATING and DON'T BE PICKY. Remember a date is better than no date so even if you don't think you fancy their picture do it anyway.
   
2. Sign up for speed dating.
3. Join something you don't usually do.... e.g book club where you'll meet a new pool of people
4. Ask someone once a week for coffee.
   

I expect a report on my desk on date one by this time next week......READY SET DATE!

It's scary but really fun and a great personal challenge!
