April 16, 2006 I Only Give Out My Number Because... I've been getting emails from guys all over the world, DYING to find out when my book is going to be released. I've been working on this book day and night for MONTHS and I'm getting pretty close to finishing it up. But in the meantime, check this out: http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=180836 Keep reading these newsletters to find out all the details... Success Story Brent, I can see greatness on the horizon. You have now given me enough tools to find what I need. I'll keep learning, but I have hit some kind of gate, and gone through. I broke up with Sally, and like you said there is a dynamic shift. Megan asked me to marry her (no!), I had s#% with Tiffany; parked and naked LITERALLY 5-7 minutes after and 200 yards from where she dropped off her "boyfriend"! The next night at The Grill, where I met the girl I had picked up in a few minutes and had s#% with when you were here, I walk into a bathroom after a girl and started kissing her, kicking her out so she could go back to her husband. I left the bathroom myself and sat down with two 18 year olds and my friend and I brought them home to my place... In the morning I returned the call of the Hot, Hot, Hot freckled brunette stripper that watched me kissing two girls while she was on stage. F*#?! This sounds like I'm a player! What the hell is happening to me??? Since my breakup, girls see something more compelling in the techniques that you taught me. I am the same me, but they are reacting to me differently. I don't understand it, but I must have changed. Your lessons evolve as my ability to understand them does. Thanks Brent! Your friend, JP, Boston My Comment: JP, I'm sorry you had such a slow week. Maybe next week will be better! Question: Hey Brent, I've got a question about giving a woman your number instead of getting hers. It seems like there are a lot of guys who give a woman their "card" and then women usually just toss them. When you give a woman your number, is it best to give them your card? Or do you write your number down for them on a piece of paper or do you program it in their cell? Thanks man SD, Vermont My Answer: Giving them a card is about as effective as asking them for their number and leaving them a message; both have a very low rate of return. Plus, when a guy does this, it seems as if he's trying to impress them with his occupation; which is a crutch and is an obvious indicator of having no power. As you stated, a lot of guys do this. Don't be like a lot of guys'. Do something to differentiate your self. The only way that they should ever acquire your number is by having it entered into their phone, preferably by them! It seems more permanent this way, as opposed to a piece of paper; which is easily lost. Writing it down should only be done as a last resort (If they don't have a phone with them) and they should do the writing. Field Report: Brent, I met this foreign girl really briefly who I gave my number to that was supposed to call me later the same night but never called. Anyway.... she just called, and it was my first call back from a girl that I gave my number to, she's 21 and HOT! Man... it feels great, I've done the number thing to about 3 girls without them calling back, but this time I told her that she should give me a call later that night or sometime next week, so I showed a little bit of interest like you recommended, and it worked! I didn't keep the conversation going very long and directed it toward meeting at my place "to get to know each other better." I told her the times when I was busy and she wanted to meet around 8:00 PM on Thursday, so I told her that was fine. I'll let you know what happens! Thanks, MN, Minnesota Tip: Giving out your number might be tough at first because you really don't believe in it Don't worry if the calls don't come pouring in at first; be patient, do it consistently and it'll end up paying off. The payoff is worth anything you have to go through. You're going to be very attached to seeing the girl again like she's the last one you'll ever meet and you know better but, that's how strong your inner voice is. The more you give your number out, the more comfortable you'll be. Soon, women will start calling you and your life will never be the same again. With each call you'll become more confident, each one giving you the resolve to give out more numbers and you'll start to become super smooth; like you're not even thinking about it. Your internal frame will be I only give out my number because this is the way the world works so women will question you less and less until there will be NO question. it will become the way it is for you. It will be a great lesson for many other things that you want to change about your life as well. I know you think that when you have the number you have the power, but you don't. Even women sometimes think you do as well; but they're only loaning it to you. They know that as soon as you pick up the phone you'll be returning it to them. Getting a woman to give you her phone number or e-mail address is NOT an accomplishment and does not make you cool or successful. It makes you like most guys' and most guys' are unsuccessful with women. I know this is hard swallow, but the truth is often painful and reversing your social programming is not going to be a walk in the park, so to speak. I know what you're thinking: Brent, you are out of your mind! I can't even get numbers at this point so giving mine out just sounds ridiculous and way too advanced! This technique seems backwards Why would I give them the control? What if she doesn't call? I'll be waiting and feel helpless These are just excuses you make for not trying. You've got to give this up and stop being attached to the outcome. Consider this: Women will give you their number to be nice or to get rid of you, so you really don't know if they're interested Women have a love/hate relationship with attention and having a lot (even if it's not from the right guy) is better than having none Women will give you the wrong number. Has this ever happened to you? Women won't always return your emails, text messages or phone calls and your failure has now been recorded for all to hear or see; there's actually evidence of it. Whether you leave messages or reach them in person, you'll only connect with a small percentage; and that's if you're great. Getting their number and calling them first, sets a precedent for how things will be if you start dating. Because you have set yourself up as the pursuer instead of the pursued, things will then be expected of you Even if you become great at getting numbers and making dates, it'll become a full time job (you'll be doing way too much work) Let's be clear, you are NOT in control. Getting a number means nothing. (I'm getting nauseas writing this) When she calls YOU first, she's no longer a prospect, she's a sale. Women only call men they're interested in. You already did the selling by giving her your number instead of taking hers. The only thing you now need to do, to service your new client, is answer the phone and schedule her appointment with you. No maintenance is needed. That's what happens when you make the product out of high quality parts in the first place. You don't have to be as funny, as clever, as interesting or as attentive. You don't have to be as ANYTHING! Having phone numbers doesn't make you powerful, it drains your power and sets you up for failure! What's the secret to giving out your number? Stay tuned. A Special note My Book I've received tens of thousands of e-mails regarding the upcoming release of my book. It's coming soon and I guarantee that it will change your social life forever! Only a limited amount will be available for download and will be available to my subscribers and those of my joint venture partners ONLY! My Coaching As you know I've been turning a lot of you down for coaching and it's only going to get worse. I'll be cutting back even further on the 1-on-1, prices will be doubling (so get it while you can): http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=180836 and I'm moving to the multiple-person model. I'll only be accepting a limited number of clients for my new Boot Camps and exclusive Tele-Seminars in 2006 that will begin in January. A Personal Note If every man on the planet stopped getting phone numbers, it would turn the world of dating upside down overnight! Be part of the solution, not the problem. Forward this newsletter to your friends and let's take back the power! That's it for now. Good luck out there! Brent April 22, 2006 Telling is actually asking This is another example of the opposite being true. When women make statements about what they're not going to do, they're actually asking you for permission to do it, seeing if you care and testing you. They're actually asking you to be indifferent. Don't be put off by this. This is a pivotal time in the interaction. She's at a fork in the road and has to decide which direction to go. Women rarely mean what they say. Example: Her statement: We're not having &^% tonight. Translation: We're having &^% tonight as long as you don't act negatively about what I just said. When a woman utters the above statement, you are almost 100% guaranteed to have &^%, unless you argue with her about her statement. She just needs to say it out loud in order to rationalize the opposite behavior that she wants to display. It's her disclaimer. She is looking to place the blame (for her decision) on you. It's the only way she can live with herself. Take the blame and all of the responsibility off her shoulders. She's waiting for you to say the right thing because she wants to feel good about her decision. Ever had the experience of doing great with her one minute and then end up leaving without her? You're thinking: What just happened? She was really into me. I guess I'm just not a closer. She's waiting for you to say the right thing; and you didn't. You need to take the competitiveness out of it and remove the adversarial component from the interaction. Don't argue with them, agree with them;tell them you don't care. Example 1 Her statement: We're not having &^% tonight Your possible responses: You: Who said anything about &^%? You: You better believe we're not You: What makes you think you could talk me into having &^% with you? You: Wow that takes a lot of pressure off. What should we do now? You: I don't remember asking you to You: You're an adult, do what you want You: I don't have &^% until I get to know a girl better You: I never thought we were Being confrontational will get you nowhere. Act as if it doesn't matter and that you are just having fun and you're not worried about what happens later. Let her know that it's ok to do anything she wants and that she won't be judged for it. Remember, she doesn't want feel like feel bad for showing interest. Here's how she might rationalize it (after it happens): He was just so funny He talked me into it He kept buying me drinks He just said all the right things I told him that we weren't having &^%; I objected. I'm not responsible for what happened after that. He was indifferent and that made me want him He rejected me and NO ONE rejects me; what's wrong with me? He didn't care so I guess there was nothing to prove No where in that conversation did she say, I just wanted him. Once they feel comfortable and you've removed all of their objections and all of the roadblocks society has out in front of them they won't be able to come up with any other reason to say no. Success Story Dude, the other night was f&%!ing AMAZING, Brent! I was meeting some friends at this club downtown Minneapolis a couple nights ago, but I got there late so I ended up having to wait in line by myself for like 2 hours. I've never had so much fun just waiting in line. Here's what happend: I was waiting in line, and just started talking to everyone around me (not just girls). The first group of girls that I saw I opened with 'Hey do you guys have any chapstick?' because my lips were really dry. After about a half hour I swear I had at least 10 girls surrouning me and trying to get my attention. It was amazing, because it didn't even feel like I was doing anything at all. They would be tapping me on the shoulders, some grabbing my #%^, etc. They were seriously lining up to talk to me. I would be talking to one group of girls, and all of a sudden there would be another girl standing behind them and staring at me, waiting for me to say something to her. Some would approach me with stupid questions like 'do you know what time it is?' or they would ask about my necklace or whatever. One girl even came up and asked me if I was a celebrity! I wasn't really expecting that but I went along with it and told her that I was dissapointed that she didn't know who I was and she appologized for not recognizing me! It was definitely an eye-opener to what's possible. Thanks again Brent! NM, Minnesota Testimonial Spend time with Brent;do whatever it takes! My session with Brent in Miami was off the hook, but the results since returning have suprised me even more, and I barely have time to go out. Women do things for me that they never used to do. Buy me drinks, kiss me when I least expect it, agree to spend time with me on my terms, invite me to spend time with them in foreign cities like Paris for free, and even ask me to spank them in front of their friends - in the middle of a crowded restaurant! And to think that I've only been out four times since returning from Miami over a month ago... I can only imagine what the future holds!

Brent April 30, 2006 Indifference (the difference that makes the difference) 1: unbiased impartial unconcern 2: apathy demonstrated by an absence of emotional reactions [syn: emotionlessness, impassivity, impassiveness, phlegm, stolidity, unemotionality] 3: the trait of lacking enthusiasm for or interest in things generally [syn: apathy, spiritlessness] 4: the trait of remaining calm and seeming not to care; a casual lack of concern [syn: nonchalance, unconcern] Indifference is the strongest force in the universe. It makes everything it touches meaningless. Love and hate don't stand a chance against it. - Joan Vinge This is my favorite subject!! I've always said that if men would master this one thing, they would no longer have ANY problems with women. It would change the entire world of dating overnight. This is one of the most important techniques in creating attraction. When used properly, it drives women crazy. It's the, "I don't really care" or "I'm not attached to the outcome" frame of mind that they're be attracted to. You seem like you don't have a care in the world. Being a little indifferent is actually healthy for you. You avoid most of the peaks of life and the unproductive emotions that usually sidetrack you. In fact, you'll be able to turn your emotions on and off like a light switch; living a pretty smooth, drama free life. Indifference causes a woman to feel comfortable with you. It's the push-pull thing. You're not pushing and this is pulling her in, and she's becoming emotional. Use the word 'Maybe' and the phrase "we'll talk about" when speaking to them. Example: Maybe we'll get together Maybe we'll have drinks Maybe you can meet us later There's enough yes in maybe for you to seem indifferent, yet interested; and enough No to appear as a challenge- just out of her reach. Using "we'll talk about" is also effective. Again, this is non-committal yet alluring. Example: "Give me a call and we'll talk about getting together sometime" Never agree to anything. You're telling her that the two of you will discuss the next step, if there is one. You haven't made a final decision or been convinced yet. It's just another way of conveying your power. Be careful with indifference though. You can become so good at it that women won't think they have a chance with you. Basically, you'll be back in the same place you started. Question Brent, This girl emails me asking me to spend a day with her in SF. I live one-and-a-half hours away, and while it would be nice to sleep with her, I don't care whether it happens or not. I am not attached to the outcome of this. I feel awkward to drive that far just to hang out with a girl. I have a very good male friend who attends college in SF, and we have only hung out twice in the last 10 months since he moved to the city. I would feel more comfortable with the idea of seeing this hot blonde girl if I was going there to visit my male friend earlier in the day, because by doing that, I would not feel like I did something desperate. Plus I genuinely want to visit my male friend as he is really fun to talk and hang out with. I do not want to go out to bars/clubs/restaurants/anywhere with her. I am done with dating. I want to use your idea of telling her I've had a long week, and I feel like having a glass of wine to unwind and chat. What do you think? Am I going about this the right way, or am I missing something here? Thanks for your time, PP, San Francisco Answer You really have two choices when it comes to your blonde friend: 1) Tell her that you're going to be up her way anyhow and after meeting with your other friend you would be up for a very relaxed evening at her place. If she declines, say "Ok, that's cool, give me a call in the futire and we'll try again". or 2) Tell her that you'd love to visit but you're just slammed right now and would she be up for coming to you, where the two of you will kick back, drink some wine and maybe order some food. If she declines, tell her to give you a call in a few weeks and you'll talk about scheduling something else. Success Story What's up Brent? I've listenned to your interview with David, and saw you also in his video. I had to take some time to write to you to let you know that your "material" really made a change, not only in dating but also in my life in general. From all the interview your are probably the one I can most "identify my style to" . I always been a Classy guy and you've helped me figure out how to use that to my advantage and how to keep my power etc.. I had to personaly thank you for it, thats the least I could do. Like they say in the matrix..." Free your mind" and I'd never believe my own sucess before. I also was curious about some of the Incredible story you never wanna explain with david lol, because now I believe EVERYTHING is possible. J.N.

Brent May 10, 2006 You're such a player Success Story Brent, I had such a kick a$$ weekend. I took a botched situation Saturday night (found myself stranded somewhere-however in a target rich environment), and COMPLETELY TURNED THINGS AROUND INTO EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED WITH THE BEST DEMONSTRATION OF TIME MANAGEMENT! BRENT, YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD!!! I started running the tables man...I hooked up with a really cool chick too! DUDE, this chick was like a writer for Forbes Magazine. She was all over me!!! At one point I had the attraction so high we were outside in the middle of a bunch of people and she starts kissing me. Not normal behavior for this type. It was to the point where I was getting uncomfortable. I mean we are in a nice place with nice people. I don't want to just sit there and make out...lol! But, she didn't want to stop...!(Okay?) And, at one point she says, 'Shut up and just kiss me...!!! (Okay again???) LOL Man it's getting so natural and fluid, I love it! D.M. , Houston My Comment Dude, I'm like happy to inform you that like you've just scratched the surface and like there's a lot more to come! Question Hey Brent, I'm really starting to get this stuff, but now I'm facing new problem. I'm afraid women will now see me as a player. Is there anything wrong with this? How do you deal with it? My Answer Logic, my friend. Her: You're such a player. You: And your point would be? Her: Well, I want a man to pay attention to me, only. Why are you that way? You: Would you agree that it's hard to find somebody to click with? Her: Yes You: Would you also agree that you have to date a few different people to increase the chances of meeting someone great? Her: Yes You: So, are you saying that I should sit on my couch, watching T.V. every night, while waiting for the right woman to walk through my living room? Her: No You: Exactly. Any more questions? Interview excerpt Joanna Krupa, 24-year old Polish model from the February 2006 issue of Stuff Magazine. Go buy this magazine to read the full article. Stuff: Would you ever go out with a guy who had a beer gut? JK: If he had a good personality and there was some kind of attraction, then why not? Actually, there was one guy I went out with a few times, and he had a little bit of a gut. A guy I date doesn't have to have a six-pack, that's for sure. There has to be personality-something has to click. I'll meet these guys who are just drop-dead gorgeous, but they have absolutely no brains or are really stiff or not talkative or have crappy personalities. Stuff: What kind of personality do you like? JK: Somebody who makes me laugh and jokes around; is outgoing and has fun anywhere; and can go into a place where he doesn't know anybody, start a conversation and be funny and outgoing. Stuff: What's the craziest place you've done it? JK: A lifeguard booth in Cabo! It was at night, and I was the one who insisted on it. My boyfriend was like, 'What are you, crazy?!' and I was like, 'NO, come on, let's go!' Stuff: Are you always the Instigator? JK: That time I was. Usually I'm not, but he definitely brought out that side of me! Stuff: I'm sure our readers would love to know how to bring out that side of you more often. JK: It's hard to day. There has to be something about the guy. It's has to be that kind of attraction that makes you eager to be with that person and want to do it-a special attraction that makes you want to take charge. Field Report Hey buddy, This whole thing really amazes me. Some of the guys I met at the seminar are writing to me about how they're all motivated and are going out and trying to do 20 sets a night and how they *think* they're getting better because they finally got a couple of hot girl's numbers. This is how it is for me: Last night is the first night I've gone out since I got back, and all I was doing was meeting a friend from school to catch up at a coffee shop. As we go to sit down, I notice two hot girls sitting at the table next to us. They are both looking at me. Without hesitation, I said 'Hey, what's up'? Then I turn away, ignore them and start talking to my friend. I could tell the girls were looking at me and wanted to talk more, but I was with my friend, he needed to talk, and I was committed to just listening and helping him out. About ten minutes later, I notice that there's this really hot girl looking at me that I knew from somewhere but never did anything with, so I just point and motion for her to come over. I look away and continue talking to my friend. Three seconds later she's at the table leaning into give me a hug. I turn and our lips meet and we start making out. She just looked at me in disbelief and said 'wow!' We chat for a bit and I tell her that I have to get back to my friend. Then she asks what I'm doing later and if she can get my number. I go back to talking to my friend for another five minutes and decide I have to get back home to finish some work for tomorrow. As we're leaving, one of those two girls I told you about in the beginning says 'Hey! Don't I know you?' We chatted for less then a minute then I told them that I had to go. Her cell phone was on the table so I just picked it up, put my number in and told her to give me a call later in the week and I might have time to get together. I was only out for about 20 minutes, just to talk with my friend, and these are the types of things that happen. Less work...more return. The reason why these things are happening is because of the things I've learned from you. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! BD, Denver Testimonial Working with Brent was awesome. I was at a point where I had been studying a bunch of other stuff, struggling to understand it and had so many unanswered questions. Compared to some of the other material in this industry, I consider Brent to be like an evolutionary step ahead of everyone else. Training with him confirmed that this guy knows his stuff. I mean, he was creating attraction with a super hot bartender just by saying the most mundane stuff, not hitting on her at all; I could actually SEE her becoming attracted. She kept trying to find us later in the night, coming up to our table saying she's been looking all over for us. He was like, 'See?' And the SAME thing kept happening throughout the night, with other hot girls. What the heck is he doing that magnetically attracts women over to him? Good thing I came prepared with a bunch of questions to ask. I must've asked him 4000 questions. The guy was so generous, answering every question I had, he started to loose his voice at the end of the night! I came out with an entirely new perception of attraction, and of women. His material on power deserves a Nobel Prize in my opinion! I think his approach and style is great. He comes across very warm and powerful at the same time, a pretty unique combination. I really can't thank him enough; it was totally worth the investment because every new day I feel better than the last. I've been practicing what he told me to do, and I feel more confident, more powerful, and women are responding. Women are noticing me more, I see them looking at me differently; they're more flirtatious. Today a mom was trying to hook me up with her daughter right in front of her, and I'm not doing anything! Well I suppose I am, but it just feels more effortless. I'm noticing that I don't have the confusion I had anymore, I'm catching myself saying things to girls I wouldn't normally say, I finally feel like I'm really starting to 'get it.' Now it's just a matter of integrating this into my life and keep practicing and growing. Thank you Brent, you're a genius!!! S. F. , Los Angeles Coaching Some of you newer guys are asking me if my coaching will work for you. The answer is yes. You'll have fewer bad habits to unlearn, will move faster and you'll be building your social life, correctly, from the very beginning. I've also had guys telling me that my method sounds too good to be true. It can't be as simple as I say it is. Well, I have news for you...it is! Keeping it complicated is how you deny that it's simple. That way, when you have a little success, you feel like you've accomplished more. Select dates are available for coaching in 2006.

Brent May 17, 2006 When a woman calls you Success Story Thanks for everything Brent, you've steered me back in the right direction. I was relying too much on these crutches and routines, and doing all this hard boring work. And quite frankly I wasn't enjoying the process. But now I'm focusing more on having fun because after all I'm already successful with women, right? Anyway things are beginning to just happen, women are beginning to land in my lap so to speak. When I was out there in the field with you, it became obvious to me what everyone else says, you make it look effortless. I believe its probably because you are obviously having fun, appreciating people instead of an outcome, and also you are just being lazy trying to do as little as possible. lol. I remember at a certain point we were surrounded by women, and then this woman just came to "take you for a walk." I couldn't believe it. We had just walked in and you were getting approached. I logically believed it but my mind was still saying "ok he knows her." I've recently been using affirmations like you advise, and they are great. I've also started to be successful with women instead of becoming successful with women. I wrote down how a normal day is as I am already successful. I read this once a day and ask myself questions like how I would behave if it was already happening etc. It has had tremendous results with much less effort (thank god). I know this is a long email but wanted to tell you how much you've influenced my path and internally made me realize that reality is all B.S. and therefore you make of it what you want. Thanx Brent, you are making a difference man! take care!!! FY, Minnesota What to say when women start calling you Here's how it could go: You: Hello Her: Hey, Jim it's kelly from the other night You: Hey, what's up? Her: Nothin, Just hangin out You: Cool, so what's happening? Her: Just got home, blah, blah, blah You: Great, so what's goin on? What you want to do here is keep throwing it back in her court by asking her the same question, in a different form, over and over. Do not ask her out. The idea here is to have a conversation about nothing. She'll soon tire of this and say something like, Her: Soooooooo do you want to get together??? Then you put the ball back in her court by saying, You: Sounds good, What do you have in mind? Do as little work as possible. You never know, she might have a great idea such as cooking you dinner or coming over for drinks. Don't worry if she says, Her: "Let's go out for dinner". You don't have to agree with her. Just say, You: "Would you mind doing something low key? I've been out a lot recently and I'm exhausted." Her: "Like what?" You: "I was thinking we could stay in, drink some wine and maybe we'll order in some food." This is where she either agrees or disagrees. You have to be cool with either decision. If she disagrees with your plan just say, You: "Okay, cool. Give me a call in a couple of weeks and maybe I'll be rested and up for meeting you for a drink or something." This let's her know that there's a consequence for not agreeing, shows that you have no fear of loss and will also create a sense of urgency around you. These are all things that build attraction. What if she doesn't say, "Sooooooo do you want to get together?" If the conversation is going nowhere and you're getting impatient you can say, You: "So, I suppose you want to get together?" To which she'll reply, Her: "yes, that would be great." You: Cool, what do you have in mind?" Her: I don't know. You: "Would you be okay with doing something low key like having some wine at my place and ordering in some food? We can always go out from here." If you really want to be powerful If she never says it and the conversation starts winding down, just go with it. If she says, Her: "Well, it was nice talking to you...talk to you later" you say, You: "Okay bye". She might also end the previous sentence with, Her: "Call me sometime if you want to get together" To which you reply, You: "Oh, you want to get together? Then just continue with the ideas above. Testimonial Let me tell you, last night one of my female friends asked me to be her bed buddy. Tonight another one of my female friends told me she would marry me in a heartbeat...and I don't even sleep with this woman! But I know I could have her if I chose to. All this is possible because of Brent's coaching. I know where you're coming from. Although I knew I needed help, I was reluctant to take the plunge. I spent hours researching the different coaches and methods out there, but something about Brent's message resonated with me. I finally went for it. I'm so glad I did. My life has changed and is continuing to change. What you'll learn from him is not an approach to women but an approach to life. An attitude, a way of living and being that naturally draws women in. I wish you the best. Just know that if you sign up with Brent, be prepared to be blown away! Your reality will be altered in ways you never imagined!

Responding to the "Most Guys" speech When you're giving out your number, not asking women out and doing everything else backwards, you'll sometimes get what I call the "Most Guys" speech: She might try to mix you in with the average guy, and try to take back the power by saying: You're not like most guys. Most guys, Call me all the time Ask me out Pick me up Take me to dinner Pay attention to me Care what I think Can't wait to see me Most guys blah, blah, blah Why don't you ever call me? Ask me out? ETC. ? Even though she finds you more attractive this way, because of bad social programming, she will automatically want to restore control to herself. Your possible responses: I'm not like most guys, which is why you're talking to me right now isn't it? Where are these guys right now? How's that working for them? If what most guys do is so great then why aren't you with them? Or my favorite: You: Where's your boyfriend? Her: I don't have one. You: So, what most guys do doesn't work so well, does it? This is a great time for me to address a few things that are disturbing me. Getting numbers Calling women first Asking them out and when asking them out Taking them to dinner on first dates Anyone who tells you that the above are effective techniques only have a very small level of success with women. If you want to even approach the lifestyle I live then stop doing these things immediately! Traditional first dates are over, they're unproductive; they don't need to be done anymore. Going out to dinner is for people who already like each other; it's not for first timers. Stop asking women out. Please, i'm begging you. Reverse the trend. You are all responsible for the way women are and the way they treat you. They are reacting to you. When you talk to her you want to wait for her to ask YOU out by saying, Her: "So, are we getting together?" Or you say, "So, I suppose you want to get together?" Then put it in her court by asking her what she has in mind. If her response doesn't include one of the following: Coffee A quick drink Getting together at her or your place Either move her toward one of those or cut your losses and move on; she's not the right girl for you. You are either the provider or the attractive guy and you can only be one. I've been talking to a lot of women about this lately and what they've been telling me may surprise you. They really don't want to be taken out to an expensive dinner, if you've built the attraction correctly. They also tell me that they don't care where the two of you get to know each other. They're fine with a drink somewhere or if they feel comfortable enough with you; your place. In fact, some women are even saying that they'll turn down a dinner invitation because they feel it makes them obligated to reciprocate in some other way. The last thing a woman wants to do is be stuck at dinner with a guy she isn't getting along with. If you insist on being the provider then consider the following scenario: You take your date to an expensive dinner, then she tells you that she's tired and has to get up early the next day. So you drive her home, she kissess you on the cheek and goes inside. Guess what she does next? Guess who she calls? Someone like me. That's right. After you've spent all the money they call me and come to my place. You do all the work and I get all the spoils. Now that I think about it, keep doing it. You're responsible for a lot of my action. Seriously, the question you need to ask yourself is, "Which guy do I want to be?" Testimonial Hi Brent, Safely back home now. Very enjoyable night and really an eye opener into your style. I have to confess I was a little concerned on the way in because of the 'barebones' information surrounding what you do. Compared to some of the other approaches out there, it reminds me of the space race during the 60's, Nasa spends $1 million to develop a pen that works in zero g; what does the russian space agency do? use a pencil!

Brent June 14, 2006 Stop Answering and Returning Calls There is no longer any reason to answer the phone when a woman calls you or return her call when she leaves you a message. You know that I'm always pushing the envelope, so this new development should not surprise you; but you're probably thinking, now Brent has finally gone over the edge. What should you do? Text message, of course. I love text messaging because it's totally impersonal and there's no reason to be personal with a woman you don't know. When a woman calls, let it go to your voice mail. This will make you seem unavailable. Then, listen to her message and simply text your reply. So if her message is, Her: Hey Brent, It's Karen from the other night. I'm just calling to see what you're up to. Talk to you later. You simply text a message describing what you're doing like, You: Working, U? By texting your reply you will be conveying that this is how you communicate and she will probably switch to it, instead of calling you. Here's the rest, Her: Just hangin out. You: Cool The idea here is to text very short messages. Again talk about nothing until you pull more out of her and she asks you out. You want her to know, right away, that she will be pursuing YOU! Here's another example: Her: What's up for Friday? You: Going to The Lounge with some friends. Her: What time? You: Around 9pm Do not ask her to join you. If anything, tell her that she can stop by if she wants. Remember, you don't want this to be a date. Here's an actual text string that I have on my phone: Her: Hi Brent, do you remember meeting me, Tanya, the other night? I was one of many girls you were talking to. Anyways, i was wondering what kind of cologne you had on? If any. Me: Deep. Her: Is that really the name? Me: Yes. Her: You didn't seem like a man of few words the other night. Cat got your tongue? I did not respond to this text. Then she called and left a message on my voice mail that said, Her: Hey, It's Tanya. I'm sitting here drinking some wine wondering if you want to come over. She's trying to get me on the phone, which will never happen. Now, I text the response: Me: Can't. Tomorrow's better. Your place, what time? Her: Um, it depends on what time I finish at work. I'll let you know. The next day. Her: Hey, I just got home. What's up? Maybe we should meet somewhere. I think my sister might come over later. Here's where it gets interesting and you'll want to pay close attention to how I handle this. Me: Working. Maybe we'll try again next week. Was up for staying in and having wine. Her: I hope you're not upset. Me: Make it up to me. Later that night, I get this text. Her: What are you up to? You should have come by-just for a drink. I do not respond. Next day: Her: Wine tonight, my place? Me: Sounds good. Her: What time do you want to come over? Me: 8:30 Later I get this text Her: Do you still want to come...by? Me: Address? Her: She gives me the address Me: I'll come by at 9. And the rest, you'll have to imagine. Next morning I get this text Her: Did you have fun last night? Me: Who is this? Her: Tanya, stupid! Me: Can you be more specific? Her: What? Me: Just kidding. Yes, it was fun. Success Story Brent, what's up buddy?! I'm busy creating the Brent Life Style. Pulled my first threesome recently. It all started off after I purchased a cigar with my buddy and next thing you know these hot girls walk in and sit down at the bar. I'm about to light up and one of the girls says "don't light that up, I hate cigar smoke". I said "tough!", and sparked it right up. I told her that if she didn't like the smoke, she should move or light up a cigarette to block the smell. I enjoyed my cigar and continued chatting with my friend, next thing you know she's asking me to come sit by her and her friend. They start telling me that they are a couple, are inseparable and do everything together. Nice! Despite this, I keep the indifference frame going, all while chatting with them, then to my buddy etc. Then two more chicks show up to get in on the action --- the attraction vibe is crackling by this point. The first two girls then invite me to move on to a club. I bail with them, they pay their own entrance fee (!) and on we go to dance for a few hours all the while making out and grinding on each other. Every time we hit the dance floor, they try to rip my shirt off. The dudes in the place were beside themselves. I felt like a king, it was awesome!!!! More craziness at a restaurant after we left the club, then we hit my place for a good roll in the sack. You would have been proud my brother. I mean the one TALL gorgeous 19 year old...just an unreal body. Alright, there you have it. Would be good to see you sometime -- it's been great building a network of hotties here, at home and other places since Miami. I just wish I was 10 years younger... oh well. Better late than never.

Brent June 24, 2006 You Get Back What You Give Out Ever wonder why 99.9% of my interactions are successful? One of the reasons that I'm successful is that I truly believe that you get back what you give out. When I'm out, I convey absolutely no negativity. If you give out negative, you'll get back negative. People think I'm someone to be reckoned with. They assume I'm powerful by the way I walk in and put on the show. Women are drawn to someone who acts as if everybody wants to know them. I don't assume that people are mean or in a bad mood. I assume they're out to have a good time and want to interact with everybody. Those of you who've been out with me know what I mean. I put out this vibe of "come talk to me." I'm out to be friendly and have a great time and have nothing at stake, accept that. So that's what I get in return. When I'm out and about I believe: Everybody is friendly and in a great mood Everybody already likes me Everybody wants to talk to me And more importantly that: Every woman is attracted to me Every woman wants my number Every woman will ask for it Every woman will call me Every woman wants to see me again, ETC. I have an old friend who exhibited this behavior perfectly. His name was John Brown. This guy was absolutely convinced that every woman wanted him, all the time, and he wasn't a pretty boy. He'd walk through a place and say: "Every woman in here wants me" He'd say this out loud to himself or to us. As he continued walking he would often pause in front of a girl (or group of girls) and blurt out: "The name's John Brown, in case you need to know later" And then, without waiting for a response he kept moving. He was already assuming that they would want to know him. It was incredible. Later in the night, women would often seek him out, and already knowing his name, would say: "Hey John. What's up?" Or "Where did you go?" This was especially effective when he was standing with other women as they approached. It was further social proof. He didn't know any girls when he walked in but one simple tactic changed all that. The more I thought about this, the more it made sense. I mean I'm not going to walk around saying "Every girl in here wants me" out loud, but what a powerful mindset and place to come from. Inside your head you already assume that every girl wants you so you go about choosing the one YOU want. When you say something positive to women and are being friendly (not hitting on them), their automatic human response is to be friendly back. How can you practice this? I suggest a small experiment: Start out by being friendly to everyone you see, everywhere you go. The supermarket, dry cleaners, on the street, ETC. Just say it not expecting a response and I think you'll be surprised at what will happen. Just say, "How are you?, What's up? or whatever. Do it until it becomes automatic. Then, no matter who you come in contact with you'll be ready and not nervous. Especially with these hotter women that you guys want to meet. Testimonial/Success Story Hey man, I just got back from a 3 week trip to France, some really interesting things happened. It made me realize that there were a few areas I was compromising myself as well as situations were I was unconsciously seeking approval. It's strange in a way... looking back, I was pretty good at lying to myself to justify what I was considering doing. Basically before my trip to France, this was the situation: there was this girl who really liked me and I liked her somewhat. She's very intelligent, very pretty, nice and supportive but she doesn't really turn me on. Besides that she's majorly religious and kind of quirky. Yet a lot of people admire her and everyone was trying to convince me of how good it would be for me to be with her in a *relationship*. Probably because of a lot of other issues going on for me at the time and unrelated stress, I started to believe them and began to lie to myself that I wanted it when I really knew that it wasn't what I wanted or deserved. Anyway, once I got to France and got away from all the negative people everything started to change. I started to think about all of our talks and things I've learned from you as well as other positive influences in my life. I started to look back and remember when things were working and analyzing why. Amazing things started to happen. First I started to feel better about myself and felt I had much more personal power, then I met a couple of girls and hooked up with them. I decided to only fill my mind with positive thoughts but to completely unattached at the same time. Everything as a whole started to improve, I had a concert that went amazingly well, opportunities opened up, I was able to deal with a lot of different unexpected challenges easily, all was good. Then I met the sister of the guy who I was staying with. She was one the most beautiful girls I'd ever seen and besides that she's a top rate ballet dancer, and plays violin and piano. She has very high self esteem and a positive, fun, challenging, sexy personality... basically she fits the profile of my type of girl... she models also when she has spare time. She'd only had one boyfriend before and they never did anything.. it lasted for 3 weeks. She claimed that she doesn't have time and that she's too busy doing her own things. So anyway, obviously because of past bad social programming as well as the fact that she has 5 older protective brothers, it was a challenge, but with affirmations and just relaxing, I treated her the same as all the other girls who pursue me. The point is, because of the indifference and because of who I am, she started to pursue me. When we finally did get together it was unlike anything before-- even afterward it was still incredible. It was what truly made me realize that I was crazy to have even considered the things I was thinking before. I think the biggest part was accepting that I was deserving of that quality of girl. So, from now on, I only date girls of that caliber. So hey, I just wanted to let you know, that I really appreciate everything that you've helped me on. I realize that most of the time when things become stressful or start to spiral downwards it's because I resort back to old programing. But really, a lot of the richness and fulfillment as well as the success I'm achieving in all areas of my life is because of your mentoring.

Brent July 4, 2006 The 'Death Topics' Work I know what everyone else says. Differentiate yourself by using telling a story or spitting out a routine because the last thing you want to do is bore her, I mean you have to keep her interested, right? Wrong! It's no longer your job to keep her interested. At least not in the way you're used to doing it. The old way is no longer relevant and it's time to evolve into a socially well adjusted person. I know that you're holding onto this life raft (the old way) as tight as possible, because it's responsible for the progress you've made. But, I implore you to stop doing this right now. There is another level of success that you don't even know exists, except for those of you who have been out with me. You've got to go to the next level now...stop wasting time. The problem with the old way of doing things is that women have heard it all. They know when you're hitting on them. As soon as you open your mouth, they know what's coming and they immediately raise their defenses. Then, they're not listening to most of what you say after that. If you ever DO break through, it will take way too long and you'll have created too much work for yourself. You know how I feel about that...Very little work, very big return. When you talk about subjects that any two people would talk about you're actually flying under the radar. They don't see you coming and don't have a pre-conceived notion about you. Their defenses will be down and the two you can get to know each other. Women are telling me that they wish men would stop talking so much and about themselves. They think it's arrogant and annoying. They want you to ask more questions. Honestly. I'm not kidding here. Questions like: What's up? How are you? What's happening over here? Where are you from? What's on the agenda tonight? I know what you're thinking. C'mon Brent that's too easy. It's not easy, or everyone would be doing it. It IS simple though. It's like losing weight. Eat less, excercise more. Simple to understand but not easy to implement. What do we (as men) do when we figure out something is too simple? We resist. We don't want to admit that we overlooked something simple (we won't even ask for directions). You're gathering information and the answers to the above questions will have dramatic effect on your evening. These answers are going to tell you all about these women quickly and where your opportunity is (if any). I'm going to reveal how and why these simple questions are so powerful in a future product release. Testimonial Brent, How's it going? love your work. If it hadn't been for you I might have never got here, certainly not this soon. I'm 20 years old and I am indifferent, like the real deal indifference not faking but the real deal. For a long time I was faking indifference as a technique and that doesn't work, sometimes short term, but not long term. I finally got to that point where I just completely gave up on women, completely. I gave it all up and just stopped. I decided to just quit all this crap, pick up lines, techniques, routines everything. And to completely stop, and learn to be happy with my life without women 100%. It was hard took me over a month, I started going through some with drawls. I'd see a hot girl and I'd really want to approach her and start a conversation but I stuck to it until I learned the lesson. Once I figured out the lesson, be happy without women, everything changed. So now, I do absolutely nothing, no techniques, no manipulative behavior, no head games, no pick up lines, none of that crap, absolutely nothing and its awesome. I just talk to people. If I see hot women, sometimes I will approach them but I approach them because I like to talk and look at hot women. No longer am I approaching them because I want something from them. I don't care. This is really hard to describe in words, this mentality that I have now. I can't be rejected because I don't care, I'm not out to get something, I don't care if a woman likes me or wants to be with me, it doesn't matter. It's not on my mind. And once I finally got it, all these women are after me now. By the way I only figured this out like a month ago, so it's probably going to get even wilder. Things changed fast, I've gone out with more girls this week than I did my entire spring semester, and another cool part, I didn't ask a single one out, I never made the first move except hold eye contact if that counts. No longer do I care what I say, or how I dress, or any of those normal insecurities that people have when dealing with women, it doesnt matter. I just go out and have conversations with people. And now all those boring questions men ask women like where are you from?, do you have any siblings? Women are asking me these questions. They are trying to pick me up and get in my pants. Women are working to get me now, instead of the other way around. But the most important part of this whole thing and the best part is I don't care. This is the most valuable thing to me, if I woke up tomorrow and women no longer found me attractive I would not care. It would not affect me in any way. I would still be happy, I would still love being me and I would not give a crap. That is the best part. It's complete freedom! Thanks, I get it now ;) -J.L.

Brent August 6, 2006 The Secret Power Of Truth Tell the truth and make your intentions clear when speaking to women. Why? * A parade of routine and story telling men have made women hungry for the truth and women are telling me this every day. *They might want the same thing you do. *It's great time management (doing less and getting more) Stop assuming that you know what's going on inside their heads and then tell them what you THINK they want to hear. Women are smart, so treat them that way. In other words, don't pretend to be psychic, unless you are; and in that case contact me immediately because I think this will be the beginning of a beautiful partnership! Seriously, stop devolving! I'm not saying that you should just walk up and lay it on the line, out of context or blurt out something offensive. But, when the conversation turns to the subject of dating/relationships or the two of you getting together, you should try it. The secret that most men seem to forget,is the power of truth. Speaking the truth, directly and with respect, is one of the most powerful things you can ever do. You currently use truth as a last resort. Only when you're forced up against the wall, with evidence that is undeniable, do you admit it. A lot of supposed gurus out there are telling you that you have to match and mirror women's likes and dislikes, redirect their objections rather than answer them (seduce) and then inject generous doses of prasie and flattery (pursue). This is way too much work and is no longer relevant. If you're into a casual relationship just say it. Let's face it, all relationships start out as casual ones...unless you have an arranged marriage. But remember, there's a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Here's the magic sentence: You: I've got a lot on my plate and I'm only capable of a physical relationship right now...still interested? This triggers three things in her mind: * You tell the truth and this is different than most of the guys who approach her. * You're a challenge because you've hinted at the possibilty of a future relationship by using the words'right now'. (remember, women want what they can't have because they can usually have anything they want). * That you stand for something (in a climate where most people don't). When you're immoveable from your beliefs, women will respect you; even if they don't agree with you. And who knows, maybe this truth will be the thing that allows the two of you to have a serious relationship down the line. A Thank You Brent, What's up buddy? Even though I have tested your principals many times, I think I am past that stage now. Every ounce of my being wants to fight the tough love and societal pre-programming that had me looking for a better solution to my dating and social life in the first place. I, like a lot of guys thought they were headed for the happy land of a relationship but I ended up looking back over the fence with adoration of freedom. I love your comment of "What you are looking for does not exist." This is so opposite of what any other motivational speaker would proclaim. All of them want you to believe that it's right around the corner and for just $1,995 they will lead you to Nirvana.

Brent August 12, 2006 How To Get Hotter Women The simple answer is to treat the ones you like exactly like the ones you don't. In other words, don't give them special status. Easier said than done; i know. The fact is that you're giving the ones you want more status than they initially deserve. You're assuming because you find them attractive that they must also be nice, smart, have great breath, be good in bed, etc. These things may or may not be true, but you don't know yet. Imagine the opposite being true. These women you THINK you're attracted to may end up not being someone you like after you've gotten to know them. If you truly aren't satisfied with the women you currently have, because they're not good looking enough and you think the grass is greener, don't assume that the ones that ARE better looking will be...well, better. They might have more issues, lower self esteem, be higher maintenance and be drama queens. Most of you know that I have a 'Zero Tolerance' policy when it comes to drama. I'm not telling you not to try for these women and I'm not saying that super attractive women are bad; what i'm trying to do is de-mystify the process for you. The bottom line is that, with the expectations you've set, she will NEVER live up to them. Once again I'm going out on a limb here and telling you that it doesn't matter and might not lead you to the place you think it will. Trust me, I'm there. It's not usually the hottest women who have the best personalities or who are the sexiest. Trust me, you'll be bored with them just like you are with the rest of the stuff in your life that was cool for the first few weeks and now you take for granted. Let me explain: Here's what usually happens S See it: Wow! That's great. H Have to have it: I HAVE to have to it. I It happens: I have it! T Tired of it: Uh oh, I'm bored with it. Now What? I'm not prepared for this. Shit happens, now what? I'm not trying to dampen your spirits, here. I'm actually telling you this to help build your confidence. Since, you'll probably be bored with her, why not approach with the mindset of ALREADY being bored with her? Try this internal frame: The two of you met, started dating and then you got bored and broke it off. She's been trying to talk you into getting back together ever since. Would you ever be nervous about approaching a beautiful woman who's pursuing you? Of course not. The thing to consider is that the act of approaching gives away power so if you don't take it back immediately you're sending the message that you're the pursuer. I suggest that as soon as you see a girl you THINK you like and approach her, slip into the exact frame of mind that you're in when you approach the ones you curently do. You're conversation could go something like this: You: I see that we have the same problem Her: What? You: We have a lot of people hitting on us and none of them are saying the right thing. Her: I know You: I wish these women would be unique. What did that last guy say? What was his line? Her: She tells you the line or story You: Oh my god. I'm glad I asked because that's what I was going to say to you (just kidding). Her: Laughing (hopefully) You: Seriously, guys still use that stuff? Her: Yeah You: What DOES work with you? Not that I'm trying to pick up on you. Her: What do you mean? You: I mean, what would one of these guys in here have to say to spark your interest? (she's now going to tell you exactly how to get her) Her: I just like friendly, confident guys who aren't full of themselves. You: Wow, that's fascinating. It seems so simple. Guys have too much at stake and I think that's why they crash and burn so often. Her: That's so true. You: I wish women would use a different tact on me. Her: What do they say? You: They say things like, I don't want a relationship I just want to use you for sex...that kind of stuff. I tell them that I don't work that way; I'm not a piece of meat. Her: Laughing You: Not that it wouldn't be okay coming from the right woman. I mean she'd still have to convince me and be fascinating though. Her: Who's the right woman? You: Why, are you interested? Her: Maybe You: Anyway, I have to use the restroom and I'm sure you want to get back to these fascinating guys so maybe we'll talk later. (she's used to dismissing men so this will show her that you don't fear loss and build attraction) Go to the bathroom and then talk to some friends, more girls or whatever. After ten or fifteen minutes, casually walk by her again and say: You: Did I miss anything? She'll probably have some funny story about other guys who approached her and you can tell her that you were stopped by some girls and groped by the bathroom; and the two of you can make fun of them. You're not hitting on her and this is building attraction as well. She has lowered her defenses because you're being friendly, funny and indifferent; she can't understand why you're not into her. You: Well I've got to go; it was fun making fun of other guys with you. If you want to do it again sometime, I'll give you my number and we can compare notes. Success Story Hi Brent, I'll get to the point: The advice you gave me on our last phone coaching session resulted in me just getting finished having sex with that Korean girl I told you about. Oh yeah, your advice about getting candles was great. It really helped in setting the mood. Basically, I got four 3"x3" candles with red candle holders (the color scheme of my room is red and gold) and one tall and thin candle with a golden colored candle holder to be used on the little collapsible dining table in my room.. I only used the latter tonight... I lit it when we brought the take-out food back to my room. That was the only light for the rest of the evening. But most importantly, the advice you gave helped me put my head in the right place so that other things just flowed... I hope that made sense. :) Thanks, PP, San Francisco Coaching (1-on-1) If you want to live this life right now you can start by signing up for my coaching program.

Brent August 19, 2006 Seduction Is No Longer Relevant There are many definitions for seduction. Wikipedia states: Seduction is the process of deliberately enticing a person into an act. It can be used seriously or jokingly, frequently refers to sexual behavior, and may refer to an act that the other may later regret and/or would normally not want to do. Historically, the most famous seducers of all time are Cleopatra, Giacomo Casanova, and Don Juan. The above type of seduction was practiced a long time ago and things are different now; so stop living in the past. Seduction is no longer relevant, in the way you're used to thinking about it. Women are very smart, pressed for time (like everyone these days) and usually know what they want. Ask yourself these questions: Wouldn't you rather have a woman WANT to be with you? Do you really want to make a woman do something she doesn't want to do? If you do, that's weak, manipulative, not a measure of true success and just bad time management. Once again, you're making it complicated and taking the long way around. I mean, after a while your reputation precedes you and what used to take hours becomes relatively quick. It's time to find a more efficient way to conduct yourself. As some of you know, years ago I had this home date I used to do that involved wine, great food, unusual magazines and conversation, a movie and would end with getting physical. Well, I got really good at this and the result (at the end of the night) was always the same. I began to notice an interesting thing: Women were getting antsy and kind of upset after a while; but everything was okay once we were getting physical. I thought, "Wow, that's interesting. She came over to get physical, I delayed and now she's mad. What a concept." I had been wanting to find another, shorter way to do this anyway. So, I thought, "I wonder if the decision to get physical with me is made at the moment she agrees to come over?" Experiment: I decided to test my theory. I had the exact same set-up as usual but I wanted to see how quick I could get physical. So, we had a glass of wine, some food, the candles were lit and I went for it. Within 15 minutes we were doing everything that it usually took me 3-5 hours to MAKE happen. We still watched the movie for a while and then she left. So I'm thinking "This is interesting but this could be a fluke, I mean anything can happen once." I decided to it the next night as well (with a different woman) and it happend even faster. It was like I was hit by a bolt of lightening. All this time I thought I needed to go through this long ritual to get what we both already wanted. And the biggest revelation was that all of the so-called seduction was actually...for ME!!!!! I was actually doing the seduction scenario for two reasons. 1) I thought I needed to go through the whole scenario so she could rationalize exhibiting the behavior that she did and that somehow I was convicing her. 2) (this one was an unconscious decision)...I was bored. I mean I did this every night and I was making it longer on purpose. So here's the recap: * Guys always ask me what they should do (what technique they should use to get physical) once a woman is over at their place. The unbelievable truth is that once she's over at your place, it's too late! I know what you're thinking. What??? Her decision to get physical with you (or not) is made at the moment she agrees to come over. That's why doing things right, in the first interaction, is so important. * Believe it or not...women will often get upset if you wait too long to get physical once they're at your place. I've had women get really irate with me because it was 3-5 hours before something happened. * And finally, Here it comes..."Seduction is for YOU, not her." That's not a typo.

Affirmations will probably be the most important part of your self-development. They will be the base for everything else you do. Mastering them will be scary because once you believe and give up your old way of being, you'll be able to have anything you want. If what you tell yourself now (negative) works, doesn't it make sense that the opposite (positive) would also work? Your mind is more powerful than you think. And since 75% of communication is non-verbal, it makes sense that who you are on the inside effects who you are on the outside and how others react to you. That's another reason that it seems as if I sometimes do absolutely nothing and crazy stuff happens, when I'm coaching you. Here's what you need to do: Take out a piece of paper and draw a line down the middle of it with a pencil (very important). On the left side write down how it IS for you, truthfully. What are your issues. List them in order of priority if you can. Example: I never approach beautiful women because I don't know what to say. After you've finished with the left, write the exact opposite on the right side. Example: Beautiful women are easy to approach because I always know what to say. Finish the rest of the right side. Now, It's time to erase. I want you to re-write each positive affirmation and this time swing for the fence, go over the top. Think of the most outlandish thing that could happen and then go one step further. I call it 'Severe Self Talk'. Don't worry. It'll be arrogant going in and confident coming out. Really go for it..Remember, you're only saying it to yourself; not out loud to anybody else. You're inner voice is 'talkin so much smack' that a regular affirmation just won't cut it. You need something really powerful. Example: Beautiful women always approach ME, ask for my number and I have to end the conversation first because they won't stop talking. Make it short and easy to remember. After you finish all of them, pick the one that addresses your biggest, most important problem. That's the one you'll repeat to yourself daily. It's important to focus your energy on one. Don't spread yourself too thin or you'll become overwhelmed and this won't work. I want you to commit to your chosen affirmation for 30 days. Why 30 days? Because your sub-conscious is used to a lot of false starts in your past. Remember that time you joined the gym as the result of a New Year's resolution, went for 3 weeks, then somehow kept coming up with excuses for not going? It thinks your new behavior is only temporary. It assumes that you will eventually go back to the way it was before. And rightly so; that's been the case up until now. Here's another way to think about it: Your sub-conscious is like a woman in love... Her: Honey, you don't say, "I love you" enough. You: Listen, baby...you know how I feel about you; why do I have to say it? Her: I DO know how you feel about me but I need to HEAR it, ALL THE TIME! She needs constant re-inforcement. Because, left unspoken, her inner voice goes crazy reminding her of all the reasons that you DON'T! Get it???? When you DO, you'll be, Beautiful women always approach ME, ask for my number and I have to end the conversation first because they won't stop talking. Waiting to happen at ALL times. You've probably heard the adage, "He's an accident waiting to happen." It's the same thing. Here's what should be going on inside your head during any interaction you have with ANYBODY: Them: So how are you doing? Blah, Blah, Blah You: I'm great. (inside you should be thinking: Whatever, Beautiful women always approach ME, ask for my number and I have to end the conversation first because they won't stop talking.) I'm not telling you to stop listening to people, but your internal answer to EVERYTHING is your affirmation. Then, magically, everywhere you go wierd things will start happening and guess what? Beautiful women start approaching YOU, asking for your number and you have to end the conversation first because they won't stop talking. Once your first one comes true then start experimenting with the rest. Do I still use affirmations? You bet. The negative voice in my head is often trying to break through and say, "You've been on a roll for a long time Brent, but it's going to end TODAY" My affirmation is, "My roll will NEVER end! In fact, after I'm gone women will still be texting me." I no longer ask my inner voice for permission to be successful with women. In a sea of negativity, it's the positive energy that you send out to the world that cuts through the clutter. So, start right now. People are waiting for it! Testimonial I spent a night out with Brent and some of his friends and it was absolutely the experience of a lifetime! I was very nervous at first but Brent was so easy going and friendly that it instantly took all the pressure off of me and within five minutes, at the first spot, I had a gorgeous young lady pressing herself up against me introducing herself and her two lovely friends. All Brent wanted me to do was to watch, listen and learn. But, after about an hour, it looked so easy that I drifted off on my own and was already getting similar results. I have to admit that while I had one of my best times ever that night, and saw how easy it is to live such a fascinating lifestyle, I really don't like to party THAT much. But soon after meeting Brent, and this is the kicker, he gave me one little piece of advice that has changed my life forever and has brought me so much more joy and success in all aspects of my life! I'll keep that to myself for now, but believe me, a few hours with Brent gave me something that I'd been missing for a long time, and oh, by the way, dealing with women has become so second nature it is virtually an afterthought.

Brent September 2, 2006 How To Give Out Your Number There are three things you need keep in mind if you want this to work. 1 Believe that it works and that it will work for YOU (and not just me) 2 Don't draw attention to it 3 Don't debate it *Believe If you don't believe in it they'll feel it and it won't work. If you don't believe in it, then why would they? Even if they happen to take it anyway, they won't call. I know this is hard for most of you. In fact, this is one of the toughest changes that any of you will have to make and it's the one that ALL of you resist the most. What have you got to lose by doing this? Failure? Most of you aren't successful with numbers you currently have so what's the difference? Think about it this way: If there's a possibilty that you might fail, wouldn't you rather do less work for it? The secret here is to say it like this is what everybody does or this is the way it works all the time. You should say it as if it's no big deal. *Don't draw attention to it Steer every conversation towards something social or find something you have in common as soon as possible. This is directly related to the types of simple questions that I always suggest you ask such as Where are you from?, Where do you live?, What do you do?, What's on the agenda for tonight?/this weekend? Etc; and another reason that they are so important. You're searching for a great, non-threatening reason for them to call you. Remember, it takes a lot for them to pick up the phone and dial a man's number. Don't make it about a date. Make it seem as if its for a social gathering or that she needs important information from you. Let's say that she lives near you. You can ask her if she's been to a particular place such as a bar, club, restaurant, coffee place Etc. Tell her you're there or you and you're friends are there all the time and she's welcome to join you sometime if she texts. **Caution** It has to be real...do not make things up or pretend you know about things or places that you don't. If you don't know anything about anything then I suggest that you learn it fast. Sometimes you just might have to take a pass. Remember, you don't need to give it out to every woman you see. As time goes by, you'll get better at doing this and it'll happen more. Throughout your conversation say things like, *Have you been to Mynt? (or something relevant) *Remind me to give you my number before I leave. *Call me and I'll let you know about that restaurant/club/place *Text me if you want to know about that thing *Give me a call and we'll talk about it *We're probably going to club x later. I have the hook up and might be able to get you in. Text me in about an hour and I'll see what I can do. **Caution** Whatever you do, don't take her phone and put your number in. The act of her putting it in makes it real and you also don't want to give her the idea that you're pursuing her. And don't keep saying,"Ok, so call me" over and over. You'll be confusing her; she won't be able to tell if you're powerful or not. *Don't debate it She might object by saying, Her: "I don't call men" or "You take MY number" or something like that. She thinks you'll be easily swayed with one objection. And usually she'd be right. You're used to caving and just being happy to have a number. Don't give up so easily. What I'm about tell you will separate you from the rest of the guys on the planet. Calm down and do the following without missing a beat. Take out your phone and say, You: "Ok, what is it"? Put her number in your phone and press send, tell her not to answer and leave the following message: "Hey Karen, its Tom from the bar. I want to congratulate you on coming up and hitting on me like that, I know it takes a lot of guts for a woman. Lucky for you I find assertive women sort of attractive. Anyway, give me a call and we'll talk about getting together sometime". You've just taken all the power back that you gave away by putting her number in your phone. And, technically, you've called her first. I've had women tell me that it's cute, funny or the greatest thing they've ever seen. **Caution** The idea here is to get your number to her before you leave the place that you met her. Don't wait until you get to the next place or get home; do it right away. If she still happens to say, "Ok, call me" (which has happened to me a few times) just smile and agree by saying, "Ok, great. Nice meeting you." Move on and don't call her. If she's interested she'll reach out to YOU. Other exceptions to the rule: (it's okay to take her number) *Her phone's dead *She doesn't have it with her *Her dog ate it This is currently my favorite approach: Me: Why haven't you called me? Her: Because I don't know you Me: That's because you haven't called me Her: What are you talking about? Me: Let's try it again, 646-555-1212. Or Believe it or not, they often play along and give me points for trying something different. Me: Why haven't you called me? Her: (smiling) Because I lost your number. Me: (smiling) I'll give you one more chance 646... At this point I just start asking questions like "Where are you from?" I've had a girl kissing me within 2 minutes of doing this because she thought it was funny and unique. You can start doing this right now and it should work every time, so what are you waiting for? P.S. Many of my subscribers are asking for more... and funny because I've been thinking about doing a weekly PODCAST for some time. Nothing outrageous or anything, heck I'd would probably charge under $10 a month.

Brent September 9, 2006 I Saw You Staring At Me Have you ever been in the situation where a woman stares over at you and you don't know what to do about it? Most of you have. If you haven't, you've come to the right place. You may be wondering: * Should you hold the stare? * Who should look away first? * What direction should your eyes be going when the stare is broken? It's simple. Always break away first and go back to what you were doing before. Think about it: She's staring at YOU (which gives you power because she's pursuing). If you stare back and wait until she breaks it, you just gave all the power back. The congruent thing to do is to break it off like it didn't happen and then go over and say the following sentence: You: I saw you staring at me Her: What? You: (smile and pat her on the back) It's ok, I might be interested too. But, I have a question for you. Now that I'm over here, what are you going to do with me? If she says, Her: I don't know (and she means it) You say, You: Okay. Come find me when you do.(don't say it in a mean tone, keep it light) Now, walk back to where you were and don't look at her again. (she may or may not come find you. Either way you're in control) If she says, Her: I don't know (and it's playful) You say, You: Okay, let me know when you come up with something. (now change the subject) Until then, where are you from? Don't milk (her staring at you) for all it's worth. It's a sure sign that you have nothing else to say; you have no depth. And, don't make her feel bad for playing along or showing interest. Remember how hard it is for her to do in the first place. Testimonial Hey Brent, When I first decided to get a weekend of coaching from you, I wasn't really sure what to expect. I just assumed you would teach me how to be a smooth-talker and, essentially, trick girls into liking me. That's not how I would have phrased the situation then, but I see things a bit clearer now. It didn't take me very long at all to realize that what you were actually teaching wasn't necessarily how to be successful with women, but rather how to be successful in life and with people in general. A month later, I'm still amazed at how much better my life is becoming. I'm meeting more people, making more friends, and having better relationships with the people who are already in my life. I think that perhaps the single greatest pearl of wisdom you bestowed on me was that the only place I need to be is wherever I'm at. In other words, I no longer have to worry about being anywhere! I can just live my life however I choose, and know with certainty that I can meet women and make friends wherever I go. The second greatest thing I learned from you is what I've been calling "Role-reversal." I used to believe that I wasn't successful with women (in part) because I wasn't a "smooth-talker" or that I didn't know how to entertain women, so to speak. Now, as you yourself have said, I get nauseous at the very idea of my doing anything to try and entertain women. No longer am I the one driving all over creation for women, buying them dinner, or going out of my way to do anything special for women. In fact, I now find that when I mention that I would like to try "X" or that I want to learn "Y"; the woman asks if she can do these things for me! It's unreal. I suppose I should get some rest now. I'll need my energy because tomorrow I am hooking up with a beautiful young stripper, and later I will be getting some lessons in salsa dancing from another woman I met. So thank you Brent for the countless things you taught me, all of which I have been using to create a better life for myself! A.D., Los Angeles, Ca.

Brent September 16, 2006 How To Be Consistent When I was younger I had some initial success with women but it was feast or famine. In other words, I was inconsistent. One week I would be really on and have incredible results and the next week there was nothing. I thought I was doing the same things. At the time, this is what I thought: * I guess inconsistency is the price I have to pay for the success I have * I have to take the bad with the good * I have more success than anybody I know so I should be happy * I don't know anyone who has this life 24/7; it must not be possible So I accepted that this was how my life was going to be. And, of course, that's exactly how it was. It was a self-fulfilling prophecy. I was guarenteeing that it would be that way. One day I realized that this was all in my head and that I could have this life all the time (scary thought). What did I do? The same thing I want you to do: Take out a piece of paper. Think back to the last time(s) you were successful and write down all the details that you can remember: * What kind of mood were you in? * What were you feeling? * How were you acting? * What were you saying? * How were you saying it? * What was your body language? * How were others reacting to you? * Etc. I guarentee that you'll find many common things that you did, that you're not even aware of. Once you know what they are, do them every time you're around other people. Is that it? No, there's more. Stay tuned! Testimonial While the insight from Brent's newsletters and interviews is powerful in and of itself, there's simply no substitute for witnessing his approach and taking in his knowledge firsthand, live and in person. I knew that my coaching weekend was going to be awesome, yet I still underestimated just how much I would actually learn and evolve from it. Furthermore, I had no idea just how easy, and how much fun, it was going be for me to actually play integral roles in amazing interactions that we experienced together! Brent was great to hang with because everything he conveyed was authentic, fun and positive. He offered excellent feedback which has helped me with many of my sticking points, especially in areas where he was able to find good perspectives within notions that had, in the past, been self limiting beliefs for me. He also shared a wealth of constructive suggestions to refine other, more subtle aspects of myself that I wasn't already aware of. ** Results!** The affirmation about me being so interesting that I'd have to cut off conversations has already come true! I found myself being dragged around by a group of three women (2 of them very attractive) who were smitten with me and who were begging me to hang around with them all night. Everyone saw this (and their touchy/feelyness) everywhere we went and I could really feel the impact that my presence made on others. They were all wondering... wondering...wondering... THEN horny guys starting coming into the group...so I welcomed them... and the girls were turned off by them and turned towards me... I'm now getting text messages of my own... LOL! Thanks for bringing to my attention the fact that I make a bigger impression then I thought I did. That was BIG for me... Unlike many good things in life, where the initial buzz steadily tapers afterwards, I now wake up each morning with a growing sense of enthusiasm about the present and the future. My attitude is being fueled by the momentum of the successes that I've been experiencing on my own, consistently, day by day. I now realize the Possibility that exists... Thanks Brent.

Brent September 23, 2006 You Might Be Too Perfect You're a good looking guy, have great hair, hip clothes, flashy car, you're successful in business and you know all the right people; you even have no noticable, nervous twitching. Let's say that none of this is over the top and you're not using all these things as crutches. Basically, you think you have your act together. So why do you still have problems attracting women, holding the attraction and getting them not to flake? Even after they've shown initial interest by approaching you, telling you they're interested and getting together with you for mind-blowing physical activity? I bet you never thought that you might have it TOO together for them. Here's what I mean: You might be too perfect. Women want to nurture and fix you. When they're with you they try to imagine where they would fit into your life and what they would help you with. You've provided them with nothing to fix...you're ALREADY fixed. You might also be doing something relationship oriented that's giving them the 'go signal' to have those thoughts in the first place. Women rarely do that with me. They know the deal and don't consider any other possibilities. Here are a couple of other reasons directly from women: * "You are a good looking guy, its becuase we're afraid we'll get hurt, its a defense mechanism we have becuase we have been burned so many times." * "I really like you and I like being around you, but I am moving so I am trying my best NOT to see you, I am sorry I am just scared." Believe it! This is not a lack of attraction but you might be scaring them; they're actually intimidated by you. All this time you actually had higher status. The good news is that you're much more powerful and attractive than you originally thought. It makes total sense that they would fear you. Remember, the hotter they are, the lower their self-esteem and the average looking men they date cheat on them less (they think). Whereas with you, they assume that every woman feels as THEY do around you so you must get physical with all of them and they're threatened by this.

Brent October 1, 2006 Wrap It In A Treat When you have something controversial to say you have two choices about how can deliver it. You can make a statement that causes people to become defensive and not listen to anything else you have to say or you can make it easier to digest. It even works with dogs. For instance: Your dog is sick so you take it to the Vet. The Vet says, I can help your dog but you'll have to give him these giant pills. You both know that your dog will never swallow a pill this big, but you know what's good for him (and he doesn't know) so what do you do? The Vet tells you to crush it up in his food or wrap it in a treat. You do it, your dog gets the medicine he needs, gets better and everyone's happy. It's the same with people. Most are pre-conditioned to have an automatic response (based on past experience and social programming) and don't really know what's good for them. In other words, they don't know what they don't know. I used to tell women, in an adversarial way, what I was about. Example: *This is how it is with me *I don't do ________ or _________ *I will never_________ *Etc. This led to bad time management; I spent a lot of time debating. These days, I don't have to say the words anymore. Women know just by talking to me, about anything, what my story is. In between making direct statements and learning to convey those statements non--verbally, I wrapped it in a treat by explaining it in a way that was easy to swallow. Example: When you offer your number, she might object by saying, Her: I don't call men Instead of saying, You: Well, I don't call women. Try, You: (smiling) Do you like being in control of who you talk to and who you date? Her: Yes You: Of course you do. Well, I'm putting you in the driver's seat. You can either call me or delete my number later or if you're not interested. How does that sound? Most likely, she will agree and take your number. And there's a positive energy in the air.

Why ls Lhls happenlng Lo you?
lL's happenlng because you're golng ouL for Lhe wrong reasons.
lf you're golng ouL Lo geL phone numbers, geL lald or geL a daLe you're golng ouL for Lhe wrong reasons. Women can Lell why you're Lhere and Lhey can Lell LhaL you wanL someLhlng from Lhem. SLop wanLlng someLhlng from Lhem.
1he only reason you should be golng ouL ls Lo have a greaL Llme and meeL people.
When you're frlendly and people can Lell LhaL you don'L wanL or need anyLhlng from Lhem, Lhey'll [usL sLarL glvlng you sLuff.
1ry lL and leL me know whaL happens!

uo you always flnd yourself walLlng for Lhe perfecL momenL Lo do someLhlng?
1here's a saylng, "?ou don'L have Lo be greaL Lo geL sLarLed, buL you have Lo geL sLarLed Lo be greaL."
1here seems Lo be some confuslon as Lo wheLher you should sLop belng soclal whlle you're learnlng Lhe "lnslde your head" sLuff l Leach or wheLher you should be golng ouL aL Lhe same Llme. LeL me clear Lhls up rlghL now.
Co ouL.
Why?
lf you sLay ln Loo long you mlghL geL used Lo lL and lose your nerve...lL's klnd of llke heslLaLlng afLer you arrlve aL a place...Lhe longer you walL Lhe worse lL ls. lL can become a very convenlenL excuse for noL parLlclpaLlng ln llfe. lL's a sllppery slope, so avold lL.
lus you need feedback along Lhe way. Pow do you know lf lLs worklng lf you never LesL lL? Pow do you know LhaL Lhlngs are changlng for you soclally lf you're noL golng ouL? ?ou don'L. Some feedback (poslLlve or negaLlve) ls greaL along Lhe way. lL helps you flgure ouL whaL mlndseLs/vlsuallzaLlons are worklng and helps you callbraLe Lhem.
So why ls lL LhaL you mlghL be sLaylng ln?
Cne reason ls LhaL you mlghL have a case of Lhe "When l's." WhaL are Lhe When l's? 1hey can be Lhe sLumbllng blocks Lo havlng everyLhlng you wanL. Many of you have greaL lnLenLlons. ?eL, when asked why you don'L follow Lhrough, you usually offer some lame excuse abouL walLlng for Lhe perfecL Llme. 1hey begln wlLh "l'll do lL...", "l'll Lry lL...", "l'll go ouL...", "l'll sLop pursulng...", "l'll slgn up for lL..."
"when l have Lhe perfecL [ob."
"when l geL some money saved up."
"when l have my acL LogeLher."
"when l've had some success wlLh women."
"when l'm no longer a vlrgln."
"when l have my lnner sLuff LogeLher."
"When l've masLered pursulng"
?ou geL Lhe plcLure. Llfe ls Loo shorL Lo walL lL ouL. lf l walLed for Lhe perfecL Llme for everyLhlng, l would sLlll be worklng ln Lhe corporaLe world and noL Leachlng you anyLhlng. l used Lo sLruggle wlLh lndeclslon and procrasLlnaLlon every day.
1he mosL common reacLlon Lo confronLlng declslons or faclng new slLuaLlons ls Lo delay or procrasLlnaLe. SomeLlmes lL's Lhe search for Lhe rlghL or besL Llme. CLher Llmes lL's because you're afrald of falllng. WhaLever Lhe reason, heslLaLlon almosL always leads Lo unhapplness. 8y delaylng an acLlon, you only delay happlness and freeze fear ln place. WalLlng for Lhe besL Llme means walLlng forever, slnce you can'L know LhaL momenL unLll lL has passed. rocrasLlnaLlon lncreases raLher Lhan reduces fears.
MosL ofLen, Lhough, Lhe delay prolongs paln, anxleLy, or dlscomforL. PeslLaLlon wlll never lmprove your slLuaLlon. MosL ofLen lL makes Lhlngs worse.
So whaL's anoLher reason you do lL?
Slmple...
lLA8
1here are Llmes you heslLaLe Laklng acLlon because you're afrald of fallure. CLher Llmes you heslLaLe because you're noL sure whaL wlll happen and you're afrald of Lhe unknown. ?ou're probably an experL aL comlng up wlLh reasons Lo nC1 do someLhlng. ?ou're noL alone ln raLlonallzlng heslLaLlon. We all do lL. MosL ofLen you raLlonallze your heslLancy by blamlng Llmlng. ?ou mlghL say, "1he Llmes' noL rlghL." lL could be LhaL you Lhlnk Lhere's one perfecL momenL Lo Lake Lhe acLlon. A sllghL varlaLlon of Lhls "Llme's noL rlghL" excuse ls Lhe "l'm noL ready yeL" [usLlflcaLlon. 1haL was my favorlLe. l'm always preparlng and Lhen preparlng some more, and spendlng anoLher weekend preparlng, all Lo keep from faclng a dlfflculL Lask. Cbsesslve over-preparaLlon ls my form of procrasLlnaLlon.
l Lhlnk lL's beLLer Lo selze a momenL and acL qulckly Lhan Lo procrasLlnaLe and lock fear ln place.
8esldes, perfecL Llmlng ls only apparenL Lhrough hlndslghL. 1haL's because Llme doesn'L sLand sLlll and acLlons don'L happen lnsLanLaneously. 1he [udgmenL of whaL ls Lhe perfecL Llme for any acLlon ls knowable only afLer lL has already passed.
1he only way Lo sLop feellng fearful ls Lo Lake Lhe acLlon you're avoldlng. SLop walLlng for Lhe perfecL Llme, lL wlll never come. lnsLead, reallze LhaL Loday ls Lhe besL Llme Lo do anyLhlng. 1hls ls Lhe momenL. 1here's no Llme llke now, so Lake Lhe acLlon. WheLher lL's golng ouL alone, walklng over and Lalklng Lo a group of sLrangers or Laklng LhaL semlnar you've been puLLlng off. lL may noL always Lurn ouL poslLlvely, buL aL leasL you wlll puL Lhe fear behlnd you and be able Lo move on.
1here's a sLory ln Lhe 1almud abouL a wlse man walklng ln Lhe counLryslde all by hlmself. Pe rounds a bend ln Lhe Lrall and comes upon a pack of wlld dogs. Slnce he's afrald of dogs...he lmmedlaLely slLs down among Lhem.
Cne of Lhe hldden polnLs ln LhaL parable ls LhaL Lhe wlse man "lmmedlaLely" slLs down among Lhe dogs. Pe doesn'L wasLe Llme worrylng abouL whaL mlghL happen or how Lhlngs could Lurn ouL. Pe reallzes every momenL spenL heslLaLlng ls anoLher momenL llvlng ln fear. Pe doesn'L walL for Lhe dogs Lo lle down Lo sleep, or Lo become dlsLracLed by a rabblL, or Lo sLarL playlng wlLh one anoLher. Pe reallzes Lhere's no perfecL Llme Lo Lake Lhe acLlon. Pe knows Lhe besL Llme Lo Lake Lhe acLlon ls now.
lear ls Lhe reason we delay Laklng acLlon. We're afrald we're golng Lo fall, or we're afrald of Lhe unknown. 1he lrony ls LhaL by delaylng, we freeze Lhe fear ln place. And permanenL fear leads Lo a klnd of chronlc emoLlonal, psychologlcal, and splrlLual paln.
?ou all have someLhlng you've been puLLlng off and Lhere's no Llme llke Lhe presenL for geLLlng lL done. 1ake Lhe acLlon. ?ou'll achleve more, be happler and spend less Llme worrled and afrald.
1ry lL and leL me know whaL happens!

Pe paused for a second and sald,

Lxerclse.
?ou've probably always LhoughL LhaL your braln conLrols your behavlor, buL noL LhaL your behavlor could conLrol and change Lhe sLrucLure of your braln.
Lxerclse, especlally regular aeroblc exerclse, can help. lL can lmprove Lhe performance of your braln by boosLlng memory and cognlLlve processlng speed. ln oLher words, exerclse can creaLe a sLronger, fasLer braln.
Pow?
?ou have Lhese Lhlngs ln your braln called neurons-Lhe braln cells LhaL enable you Lo Lhlnk. ?ou can produce Lwo Lo Lhree Llmes as many new cells as people who don'L exerclse. So, your braln ls noL only capable of renewlng lLself buL exerclse speeds Lhe process.

1hat Doesn't nappen 1o Me Anymore
Pere's a quesLlon l geL a loL regardlng bad lnLeracLlons wlLh women,
"8renL, whaL do l say when a woman says______________ or does_______________."
l'm sure you're really Llred of my response, whlch always sLarLs ouL wlLh,
"1haL doesn'L happen Lo me anymore."
l mean, l'm supposed Lo be helplng you...rlghL? 1he reason l do LhaL ls because l wanL you Lo focus on Lhe poslLlve lnsLead of Lhe negaLlve. 1he longer you llve ln Lhe world of "bad responses and slLuaLlons" Lhe more Lhey wlll happen.
now, you're Lhlnklng,
"8uL 8renL, Lhey uC happen!"
l know, l know. 8uL every Llme you repeaL Lhe experlence verbally or even as a LhoughL ln your head, you're rellvlng lL. And slnce your mlnd doesn'L know Lhe dlfference beLween real and fake, lL assumes LhaL whaLever lL hears ls Lhe law. SLop focuslng on whaL Lhey're dolng and keep Lhe focus on whaL you're dolng and who you're belng.
lL's a very sllppery slope when you focus on Lhe woman's bad response because, as men, we subconsclously WAn1 Lhe negaLlve response (sounds crazy doesn'L lL?) so we can prove how good we are aL Lurnlng Lhe slLuaLlon around. lL goes back Lo us llklng only compllcaLed slLuaLlons or slLuaLlons LhaL requlre a loL of efforL because we're LaughL Lo feel beLLer only when we've accompllshed a dlfflculL Lask.
Why do Lhese slLuaLlons happen?
1here could be a few reasons such as you glvlng off bad energy, or uslng whaL l Leach you as a Lechnlque Lo geL someLhlng from her or maybe she has her own lssues LhaL have noLhlng Lo wlLh you.

"8renL, whaL do l say when a woman says LhaL she wanLs Lo make ouL wlLh me ln Lhe baLhroom or ls Lrylng undress me ln a publlc place?"

1here's a profound sLory LhaL porLrays people as prlsoners belng held ln a dark cave slnce chlldhood. 1hey slL faclng a wall and behlnd Lhem ls a ralsed plaLform and behlnd LhaL ls a flre. 1helr capLors wave dolls back and forLh Lhrough Lhe llghL of Lhe flre and Lhese ob[ecLs casL shadows on Lhe wall ln fronL of Lhe people. 1he people don'L see Lhe flre and Lhey never look aL Lhe dolls because Lhelr bodles and heads are chalned so Lhey can'L look aL Lhe person nexL Lo Lhem or move ln any way. 1hey only see Lhe shadows LhaL Lhe dolls casL on Lhe wall ln fronL of Lhem. 1he people come Lo belleve LhaL Lhese shadows are reallLy. 1hey name Lhe shadows and sLarL compeLlng for who can name Lhem Lhe fasLesL and how many Lhey can name, whlch one wlll come nexL LLc. 1hey hear Lhe volces of Lhe puppeLeers and belleve LhaL Lhey are Lhe volces of Lhe shadows. And Lhey suffer greaLly as a consequence of Lhelr bellef. 1hey belleve Lhe shadows are reallLy because Lhey know nC1PlnC buL shadows and Lhey assume Lhere ls noLhlng 8u1 shadows.
Cne day, by faLe or by clrcumsLance or maybe even by accldenL one lndlvldual ls able Lo Lurn hls head around. As he Lurns hls head he sees Lhe dolls golng back and forLh ln fronL of Lhe flre. ln LhaL momenL he reallzes LhaL Lhe shadows are only shadows and LhaL sufferlng ls caused by lgnorance. Pe goes back brlefly Lo waLchlng Lhe shadows and sufferlng.

lf he goes back lnLo Lhe cave and he Lrles Lo Lell Lhe LruLh, Lhey won'L undersLand hlm, Lhey won'L belleve hlm. 1hey've never heard Lhe word "sunllghL." 1hey wlll feel LhaL he's lnsane and a Lroublemaker. And, he'll elLher end up lmprlsoned ln Lhe shadow world or maybe even cruclfled... because hls words abouL sunllghL are meanlngless Lo Lhe people who have only seen cave shadows.

Lach of Lhese senses has a speclflc specLrum, for example, a dog hears a dlfferenL range of sound Lhan a human does, a snake sees a dlfferenL specLrum of llghL Lhan you do, and so on. ln oLher words, your seL of senses percelves Lhe sea of energy from a cerLaln llmlLed sLandpolnL and makes up an lmage from LhaL. lL's noL compleLe, nor ls lL accuraLe. lL's [usL an lnLerpreLaLlon. All of your lnLerpreLaLlons are solely based on an "lnLernal map" of reallLy and noL Lhe real LruLh. ?our "map" ls a resulL of your personal llfe's collecLlve experlences.

WhaL ls your body made of?

WhaL are sub-aLomlc parLlcles made of?
Lnergy!
?ou are pure energy. Lnergy LhaL ls consLanLly changlng beneaLh Lhe surface, and you conLrol lL all wlLh your powerful mlnd.
lf you could see yourself under a powerful elecLron mlcroscope and conducL oLher experlmenLs on yourself, you would see LhaL you are made up of a clusLer of ever-changlng energy ln Lhe form of elecLrons, neuLrons, phoLons, and so on.

So, as you can see, your observaLlon, your aLLenLlon Lo someLhlng, and your lnLenLlon, llLerally creaLes LhaL Lhlng. 1hls ls sclenLlflc and proven. ?our world ls made up of splrlL, mlnd, and body.

1houghL cannoL experlence-lL can only make up, creaLe, and lnLerpreL. lL needs a world of relaLlvlLy (Lhe physlcal world, l.e. body) Lo experlence lLself. Sl8l1 ls "all LhaL ls," LhaL whlch glves llfe Lo 1PCuCP1 and 8Cu?. 8ody has no power Lo creaLe, alLhough lL glves Lhe llluslon of power Lo do so. 1hls llluslon ls Lhe cause of much of your frusLraLlon. 8ody ls purely an effecL and has no power Lo cause or creaLe.

"WhaL parL of Lhls ls Lrue?"
"Pave l ever heard Lhls before?"
"WhaL would l have Lo glve up lf l changed?"
none of Lhls ls easy. 8uL you can Lell yourself LhaL Lhe crlLlclsm ls a slgn LhaL you have poLenLlal. lf your boss dldn'L Lhlnk you were valuable, he wouldn'L boLher Lelllng you how Lo lmprove. So nexL Llme you geL called lnLo Lhe offlce, smlle. ?ou could soon be Lhe boss!

8renL, l'm very frusLraLed LhaL l'm noL maklng progress and reachlng my goal of belng a greaL seducer. lL seems so far away and all Lhe sLorles l hear abouL oLher guys havlng success [usL depresses me more and convlnces me LhaL l'm farLher away Lhan ever. l can'L Lhlnk of anyLhlng else. l LhoughL obsesslng over lL would brlng lL Lo me. WhaL's golng on?
My Answer:
llrsL of all, lf your goal ls Lo be a seducer you're slgned up for Lhe wrong newsleLLer. 1he only person you'll be seduclng ls yourself. Pavlng sald LhaL, l'll conLlnue wlLh some general advlce on goals.
l llke goals and we all have Lhem...Lhey're a good Lhlng. Powever, belng obsessed wlLh Lhem over everyLhlng else ln your llfe or havlng Lhe wrong goals for Lhe wrong reasons won'L make you any happler once you reach Lhem. ln facL, once you reach Lhem you mlghL be mlserable. And, you're mlsslng Lhe polnL. Agonlzlng abouL noL reachlng goals and forgeLLlng whaL you've learned on Lhe [ourney ls a wasLe.
1he ma[or value of reachlng a goal ls noL Lo acqulre lL, buL lL's Lhe person you become whlle you're worklng Lo acqulre lL. lf you reach a goal buL don'L llke who you've become Lhere's no polnL.
1here's a famous psychologlsL, Abraham Maslow, who creaLed a hlerarchy of human needs and do you know whaL he puL on Lhe Lop?
Self-acLuallzaLlon.
1haL's a fancy way of saylng, who you become whlle you're worklng Lo flll Lhe oLher needs ls really whaL's lmporLanL. When you reallze LhaL Lhe game ls noL [usL Lhe goal buL who you become, durlng Lhe [ourney, Lhen some your goals may change. 8unnlng Lhe race and runnlng well, LhaL's Lhe real prlze. Wlnnlng ls noL so lmporLanL. lL's how you play Lhe game, noL wheLher you wln or lose.
Llklng who you've become ls also abouL whaL you're playlng Loward. Conslder Lhe goal of belng a greaL seducer and Lrlcklng women lnLo sleeplng wlLh you. When you geL Lhere and accompllsh LhaL, are you golng Lo llke who you've become?
Conslder Lhe goal of glvlng good energy, lnsplrlng and belng Lhe Lype of guy who women are naLurally aLLracLed Lo, a guy who pracLlces efforLless efforL...and when you geL Lhere and you accompllsh LhaL are you golng Lo llke who you've become?
Cf course you wlll. When you're seLLlng goals, one of Lhe mosL lmporLanL quesLlons you need Lo ask ls,
"When l geL Lhere and accompllsh LhaL, am l golng Lo llke who l've become?"
Who you become ls more lmporLanL Lhan whaL you wln. Some people have Lhelr self-awareness dlal seL Lo, "numb". 1he reason ls because Lhey have pursued goals LhaL weren'L worLhwhlle and even Lhough Lhey've been successful lL's Lurned Lhem lnLo someone who even "Lhey" don'L wanL Lo know.
So change your goals, change your reasons, change your llfe.

CreaLe lnLegrlLy

When you have sufflclenL power, you won'L need Llme. ?ou wlll be presenL.
Lmbrace SlmpllclLy
1he second sLep ls Lo embrace slmpllclLy. 1he Chlnese symbol for Lhls pracLlce ls an uncarved rock. lL's uncarved because lL doesn'L have any deflnlLlon yeL. So Lhls sLep has Lo do wlLh sheddlng deflnlLlon, leLLlng go, noL deflnlng yourself, and noL lnvesLlng ln a vlewpolnL. ?our mlnd wlll quleL down on lLs own accord. Agaln, do Lhls and you wlll wlnd up ln Lhe presenL.
8educe CalculaLlng ?our AdvanLage
1he Lhlrd sLep ls Lo reduce Lhe Llme you spend calculaLlng for your percelved advanLage. 8elease your mlnd from Lhe slavery lmposed by your ego. Allow yourself Lhe glfL of unlversal perspecLlve. Wlsdom wlll appear. ?our acLlons wlll be gulded by an lnLulLlve, sponLaneous, compasslonaLely benevolenL lnLenL. 1here's no regreL Lo pull you ouL of Lhe presenL. 1here's no sense ln Lrylng Lo possess Lhe resulL of your acLlon, because ln Lhe momenL of acLlon you have already fully experlenced Lhe resulL.

WhaL can you have? 1hls ldea of possesslng lmplles Llme and deflnlLlon and Lakes you ouL of Lhe presenL. 1he pasL no longer exlsLs, nor does Lhe person who llves for Lhe pasL.

When you're ln a parLlcular locaLlon/slLuaLlon and you're Lhlnklng, "1hls would be lmposslble", Lhere ls acLually a guy who can do lL. And, qulLe ofLen he's noL Lhe besL looklng, besL dressed, or rlchesL guy ln Lhe room.
Women wanL lL nCW, noL LA1L8.
Why?
8ecause women are oppressed when lL comes Lo lL. 1hey've grown up ln a socleLy LhaL rewards vlrglnlLy and Lhen when Lhey geL ouL ln Lhe real world Lhey have men pushlng Lhemselves on Lhem (whlch works once ln a whlle buL leaves boLh parLles feellng bad). So when Lhey meeL a guy who has Lhls speclallzed knowledge and allows Lhem Lo be Lhemselves, noL [udged for Lhelr deslres and ls compleLely lndlfferenL Lo lL, Lhese women explode...and do Lhlngs LhaL would shock you. 8emember, meeLlng a guy llke Lhe above ls very rare.
uon'L belleve me?
WhaL happens when you're broughL up ln a very sLrlcL household and Lhen go off Lo college? WhaL do you do when you geL Lhere and have no supervlslon? ?ou go crazy. lL's Lhe same Lhlng LhaL happens Lo women when Lhey meeL a powerful man wlLh Lhe rlghL energy. 1hey go crazy!
So, how can you make sure you're noL Lalklng Lhem ouL of lL?
SLop Lrylng Lo Lalk Lhem ln1C lL!
l could go lnLo all Lhe Lhlngs you currenLly do buL l Lhlnk you already know LhaL lf you avold everyLhlng LhaL resembles pursulng, you're off Lo a good sLarL. So, l'll [usL Lell you how Lo do lL:
AccepL whaL ls. MosL people llve ln Lhe maLrlx and aren'L aware of how Lhlngs really work. uon'L become overwhelmed by Lhls new lnformaLlon or Lhlnk LhaL lL means anyLhlng. !usL go wlLh lL.

Pey 8renL, l'm really unhappy ln my llfe and am Lhlnklng abouL movlng Lo a dlfferenL clLy, geLLlng a new [ob and sLarLlng over. l really wanL Lo leave Lhls llfe behlnd. WhaL do you Lhlnk?
My Answer:
1here's a Plndu legend LhaL says we were all once gods. 8uL evenLually we abused our powers. 8rahma, Lhe chlef god, declded Lo punlsh us by Laklng away our dlvlnlLy. 8rahma called a meeLlng of Lhe oLher chlef gods Lo flgure ouL where Lo hlde our hollness. Cne god suggesLed hldlng lL deep beneaLh Lhe earLh. "no," 8rahma sald, "man wlll [usL flgure ouL a way Lo Lunnel mlles below Lhe surface." AnoLher god suggesLed hldlng our hollness aL Lhe boLLom of Lhe ocean. "no," 8rahma responded, "man wlll [usL learn how Lo dlve Lo Lhe seabed." A Lhlrd god came up wlLh Lhe ldea of placlng our dlvlnlLy on Lop of a Lowerlng mounLaln. "no," 8rahma sald, "man wlll [usL cllmb every Lall mounLaln on Lhe planeL unLll he flnds lL." SLumped, Lhe oLher gods Lold 8rahma Lhey gave up-Lhere dldn'L seem Lo be any place Lo hlde our hollness and keep lL ouL of our reach. "WalL," 8rahma sald wlLh a smlle. "l've goL lL. We'll hlde man's hollness deep wlLhln hlmself-he'll never Lhlnk Lo look for lL Lhere." Slnce Lhen, we've spenL ages dlgglng below Lhe earLh, dlvlng Lo Lhe sea floor, and cllmblng Lall mounLalns, looklng for someLhlng LhaL's already wlLhln us.
l've meL a loL of unhappy people ln Lhe course of my llfe and you all have one Lhlng ln common...you consLanLly search ouLslde yourself for happlness. When Lhlngs geL bad you convlnce yourself LhaL movlng Lo a dlfferenL clLy, changlng [obs or daLlng hoLLer women ls Lhe obvlous answer. 8uL afLer maklng Lhese changes, LhaL famlllar resLlessness feellng sLarLs agaln. ?ou're sLunned Lo learn LhaL wherever you go, whaLever you do, whaLever you acqulre and whomever you're wlLh aren'L worklng. ?our unhapplness has acLually followed you. ln reallLy, Lhere ls no place Lo hlde...you'll have Lo deal wlLh lL rlghL now where you are Loday. 1he good news ls Lhls means you have Lhe poLenLlal Lo be happy. 1he bad news ls your happlness ls your own responslblllLy. ?ou're Lhe only one who can allow yourself Lo be happy. no one and noLhlng else can do lL for you. noL even me or my newsleLLers.
So lnsLead of rushlng Lo leave Lhls llfe behlnd by movlng ouL of Lown, leave Lhls llfe behlnd by deallng wlLh lL now and changlng whaL you don'L llke abouL lL. 1hen, lf you declde you wanL an advenLure by movlng Lo a new clLy you'll be dolng lL for Lhe rlghL reasons, have an acLual chance of succeedlng and you won'L be sLalked by your old adversary.

"So when's Lhe weddlng?" Lhe marrled frlend asks.

Ask yourself why you wanL Lhls perfecL woman. lf lL's ln order Lo look good ln fronL of oLher men (and LhaL's Lhe mosL common reason) you'll wanL Lo quesLlon your prlorlLles ln llfe.

1he underlylng Lheme of your lnLeracLlon ls one of "belng Lhe pursuer", "glvlng her hlgher sLaLus", "wanLlng her", and "fear of loss". lf you know anyLhlng abouL me, you know LhaL l belleve LhaL pursulng women ls no longer relevanL. 1he relaLlonshlp you really need Lo be worklng on here ls Lhe one you have wlLh yourself.

Pey 8renL, l saw Lhls glrl on Lhe bus and l saL nexL Lo her. l llked Lhe way she dld her halr so l compllmenLed her on lL. We sLarLed Lalklng and l moved Lhe conversaLlon Lowards Lhe sub[ecL of "soclal." She Lold me she'd never been Lo a club ln London as she was new ln Lown so l Lold her l go every weekend and lnvlLed her Lo come nexL Llme. She agreed and l gave her my number. She called me laLer LhaL same nlghL and now we are daLlng. ls Lhere anyLhlng l could have done beLLer ln Lhe lnLeracLlon?
Pere ls anoLher quesLlon. AlmosL every Llme l'm ln a conversaLlon wlLh a woman l ask her lf she has a boyfrlend...even lf she doesn'L menLlon lL flrsL. MosL of Lhe Llme Lhe answer ls "yes" and Lhen Lhe conversaLlon ends qulckly. SomeLlmes l sLlll ask her Lo puL her number ln my phone and she says she can'L because of Lhe boyfrlend Lhlng. Should l be asklng a woman lf she has a boyfrlend?
My Answer:
1he flrsL lnLeracLlon ls almosL alrLlghL. AlLhough Lhe compllmenL worked, lL could puL you ln a poslLlon of less power. CompllmenLs, ln general, aren'L bad buL lL's Lhe Lype of compllmenL LhaL maLLers. unforLunaLely, loLs of men before you have rulned Lhe effecL of a compllmenL. 8ecause mosL men use compllmenLs ln order Lo geL someLhlng from women...so Lhey're klnd of empLy and aren'L appreclaLed or even wanLed llke Lhey used Lo be. 1ry keeplng your compllmenLs Lo cloLhlng or accessorles. lL's less personal and doesn'L convey LhaL you're Lrylng Lo geL someLhlng.
l also llke Lhe soclal Lhlng and Lhe lnvlLe Lhlng. Popefully you lnvlLed her by saylng, "l go every weekend. leel free Lo [oln us someLlme." Cr "LexL me lf you'd llke Lo [oln us Lhls weekend."
l'm noL sure whaL "and now we're daLlng" means buL hopefully you've kepL Lhe power you have. lf you've reverLed back Lo pursulng (because you've now goL her) and have leL your guard down lL could end badly. keep your edge. Lspeclally slnce you sLarLed ouL shaky. 8e careful noL Lo use whaL l Lell you as a Lechnlque Lo geL a glrlfrlend and Lhen reverL back. lL doesn'L work ln Lhe long run.

CuesLlon:
Pey 8renL,
l [usL read your newsleLLer abouL glvlng your number ouL lnsLead of Laklng a number. lL ls an lnLeresLlng ldea, someLhlng LhaL l LhoughL was forbldden.
l heard somewhere LhaL,
"lL ls human naLure LhaL women wanL a man Lo Lake Lhe lead. lf you don'L Lake Lhe lead Lhey won'L have Llme for you. Also, LhaL lf a guy glves a glrl hls number she wlll never call. 1he facL LhaL he dldn'L ask was a re[ecLlon Lo Lhem. Pe was puLLlng Lhe onus on Lhem Lo call and chase hlm down whlch means he had no balls or he dldn'L Lhlnk Lhey were compelllng enough Lo be worLh chaslng down. 1he guy musL geL Lhe number from Lhe glrl and call Lo show LhaL he ls lnLeresLed ln leadlng."
1he reason l brlng Lhls up ls LhaL glrls seem aloof or are pursued and have many opporLunlLles. l recenLly had an experlence where a glrl clearly wanLed me Lo pursue perhaps Lo LesL my lnLeresL level or Lo feel deslred. l dldn'L and Lhlngs rapldly wenL downhlll. erhaps you could commenL on Lhls aloof phenomenon wlLh glrls and how Lo handle lL.
1hank you.
My Answer:

And even lf you geL lnLo a serlous relaLlonshlp, you've seL a precedenL and your role wlll never change. ?ou'll always be on Lhe Lreadmlll, Lhlnklng you're movlng forward buL never acLually geLLlng anywhere (excepL Lo a place of exhausLlon). ls LhaL how you wanL Lo llve Lhe resL of your llfe?
Men pursulng women rarely works ln Lhe long run. lL may Lake you seven years, Lhree klds and a dlvorce Lo flnd ouL...buL lL rarely works. l Lhlnk boLh men and women would agree LhaL Lhe way we currenLly do Lhlngs ls broken. !usL look aL Lhe sLaLe of daLlng and relaLlonshlps. lf men pursulng women worked...lL would work...buL lL rarely does...so lL's Llme for a new way of belng.
l respecL oLher polnLs of vlew on Lhls sub[ecL, buL ln my experlence over Lhe lasL 23 years l've come Lo belleve someLhlng dlfferenL.
Pere are my LhoughLs on whaL you heard:
"lL ls human naLure LhaL women wanL a man Lo Lake Lhe lead."
lL lS human naLure, we're soclally programmed for men Lo be Lhe pursuers and boLh men and women are on auLomaLlc plloL ln Lhls area. 8uL Lhe soclal cllmaLe has changed and we haven'L caughL up yeL. We are evolvlng (as mosL specles do) and Lrylng Lo adapL Lo lL buL evoluLlon ls a slow process and we're aL Lhe very beglnnlng of Lhls change. eople are deflnlLely confused as Lo how Lhlngs should work.
"lf you don'L Lake Lhe lead Lhey won'L have Llme for you."
lf Laklng Lhe lead means approachlng and havlng a greaL conversaLlon and conveylng LhaL you don'L wanL anyLhlng, Lhen l agree. lf lL means LhaL you should oversell, ask Lhem ouL and geL Lhelr number, Lhen l don'L agree because dolng LhaL puLs you ln Lhe same caLegory as mosL men who approach Lhem and you're acLually compeLlng wlLh Lhem. ?ou don'L sLand ouL aL all and she won'L flnd you as compelllng and aLLracLlve. Women wlll prove Lhls Lo you by noL reLurnlng your calls. ln facL, lf you have Lhe rlghL energy, you don'L really have Lo do anyLhlng and women wlll approach ?Cu and do all Lhe overselllng.
"lf a guy glves a glrl hls number she wlll never call."
Women reach ouL Lo my cllenLs and me all Lhe Llme. 1he above sLaLemenL ls a llmlLlng bellef and acLually one of Lhe blggesL reasons why Lhey won'L call. AnoLher reason ls LhaL a loL of men who Lry glvlng ouL Lhelr number, do lL wrong. lL should never be wlLhln Lhe conLexL of geLLlng LogeLher for a LradlLlonal daLe. 1he secreL here ls Lo glve ouL your number ln Lhe conLexL of a soclal geL LogeLher.
"1he facL LhaL he dldn'L ask was a re[ecLlon Lo Lhem."
1he facL LhaL you don'L ask seLs you aparL from every oLher guy Lhey meeL and conveys your lndlfference (whlch ls Lhe mosL powerful force ln Lhe unlverse) and ls a ma[or aLLracLor. 1hey can flnd lL lrreslsLlble.
"Pe was puLLlng Lhe onus on Lhem Lo call and chase hlm down whlch means he had no balls or he dldn'L Lhlnk Lhey were compelllng enough Lo be worLh chaslng down."
lf done correcLly, Lhey won'L feel pressured Lo call you or feel llke Lhey're belng aggresslve or easy...make lL slmple for Lhem Lo reach ouL. Allow Lhem Lo feel asserLlve and ln conLrol. lL Lakes more balls Lo walk away and wlll brlng you Lo a level so far above mosL men LhaL Lhey'll probably never caLch up Lo you.
"1he guy musL geL Lhe number from Lhe glrl and call Lo show LhaL he ls lnLeresLed ln leadlng."
1haL doesn'L even make sense Lo me. lf you wanL Lo lead Lhen allow her Lo follow you (pursue you). CeL lL????
8egardlng aloofness:
?ou creaLe her aloofness by belng llke every oLher guy and conveylng LhaL you are golng Lo chase her. 1here ls noLhlng aLLracLlve abouL LhaL anymore. lL ls ?Cu who should be aloof. lL's llke l Lell my female cllenLs. "SLop walLlng for a man Lo do everyLhlng. SLep up Lo Lhe plaLe and Lake responslblllLy for your llfe. lf Lhe old way worked, you wouldn'L be here Lalklng Lo me and complalnlng abouL relaLlonshlps. ?ou'd already be ln a greaL one."

1he sub[ecL llne ls confuslng. "Wlne 1asLlng" usually means LhaL you wlll be provldlng Lhe wlne (unless you A8L provldlng Lhe wlne. 8uL, l would save LhaL klnd of parLy for laLer).

Pave a geL LogeLher (ln Lhe fuLure) aL your place afLer you've meL all Lhe glrls ln person flrsL.
8?CW (8rlng ?our Cwn Wlne) ls noL cool unless lL's under anoLher condlLlon such as you're Lalklng Lo your guy frlends or lL's a hlgher-end wlne/dlnner evenL aL your home and people are brlnglng wlne Lo accompany a parLlcular course of Lhe evenlng. ?ou're maklng Lhe women work Loo hard and lL makes you sound cheap. Pavlng your geL LogeLher aL a bar solves Lhls problem.
Saylng "We wlll all geL drunk" ls noL a good Lhlng elLher. LeL Lhem make up Lhelr own mlnd abouL LhaL. When Lhey Lhlnk abouL "drunk" Lhey Lhlnk abouL "ouL of conLrol."

WhaLever you do, uC nC1 use whaL l Leach as a Lechnlque Lo geL a glrlfrlend and Lhen go back Lo your old pursulng behavlor. lf you do, she'll sLarL pushlng you away.
Why?
She's programmed LhaL way...she's on auLoplloL. As soon as she knows you wanL lL more Lhan she does, she'll sLarL Lo Lake advanLage of Lhe slLuaLlon. keep your edge. 1haL's why lL's lmporLanL Lo really absorb whaL l Lell you and allow lL Lo be someLhlng you are, noL someLhlng you do.

Pl 8renL,
l have Lhls lssue:
More Lhan a monLh ago my glrlfrlend broke-up wlLh me. She Lold me LhaL someLhlng ls broken ln her and our relaLlonshlp lsn'L worklng.
We're sLlll ln Louch. We see each oLher ln school once a week and someLlmes go ouL on Lhe Lown [usL Lo hang ouL. 8uL she doesn'L feel Lhe way she used Lo around me and l sLlll wanL Lo be wlLh her. So Lhe quesLlon ls: how do l geL her back?
1hanks a loL for helplng me.
My Answer:
SLop focuslng on geLLlng her back and sLarL focuslng on geLLlng on wlLh your llfe. Serlously, l know lL sounds backwards, buL you should know by now LhaL LhaL's how mosL Lhlngs ln llfe really work.
lf Lhere's any chance LhaL she'll "see Lhe llghL" and be lnLeresLed agaln, lL'll be because of whaL happens nexL.
Pere are some of my LhoughLs:
*1hls ls abouL PL8
keep ln mlnd LhaL Lhls ls abouL PL8 and noL ?Cu rlghL now. So, anyLhlng abouL ?Cu (how you're hurL, how you messed up, how you wanL her back L1C.) wlll only push her furLher away. lf you really llke her, you should wanL her Lo be happy even lf LhaL means nC1 belng ln a serlous relaLlonshlp wlLh you. uL your needlness (and ego) aslde and focus on her belng happy.
*Agree wlLh her
So, lf she says, "1hls lsn'L worklng. l Lhlnk we should be frlends." ?ou say, "?ou're rlghL. 1haL's a greaL ldea." l know LhaL you're programmlng Lells you LhaL you musL convlnce her LhaL she's wrong abouL you, buL LhaL doesn'L work and ls probably one of Lhe maln reasons (l'm rlghL and you're wrong) LhaL she doesn'L llke you ln 1PA1 WA? any longer. lf you say, "8uL l'll change." "l can be beLLer." "Maybe lL's because l need Lo do more of_________ or___________." 1hls ls also someLhlng she doesn'L llke abouL you (pressure and needlness) and you're dlgglng yourself an even blgger hole by dolng MC8L Cl l1.
Agreelng also shows LhaL you're acLually LlS1LnlnC Lo whaL she's Lrylng Lo Lell you. ?eL, anoLher reason LhaL she probably broke up wlLh you ln Lhe flrsL place (she dldn'L feel LlS1LnLu Lo).
*Clve her SACL and 1lML 1C 1Plnk!
lnsLead of remlndlng her abouL how belng wlLh you ls greaL (by hanglng ouL LogeLher), show her whaL's lL's llke Lo be Wl1PCu1 you.
LlmlL Lhe Llme you spend wlLh her by belng cordlal aL school buL no more frlendly nlghLs ouL on Lhe Lown. She knows whaL you're Lhlnklng whlle Lhe Lwo of you are ouL and lL's noL helplng your cause.
1he longer you force her Lo focus on ?Cu, Lhe longer lL wlll Lake her Lo declde lf she's made Lhe rlghL declslon ln nC1 belng wlLh you (ln a serlous relaLlonshlp) rlghL now. And, llke mosL Lhlngs ?Cu wanL buL can'L have, once you have Lhem you're noL as exclLed as when you uCn'1 have Lhem...because, usually, lL's more abouL Lhe facL LhaL you CAn geL her back Lhan acLually PAvlnC PL8 8ACk.
*SLarL seelng oLher women lMMLulA1LL?!
?ou may Lhlnk LhaL you'll ruln your chances and LhaL she'll Lhlnk you don'L care and don'L need her, when she flnds ouL. 8uL look aL lL Lhls way, has her knowlng LhaL you uC care and uC need her worked ln geLLlng her back so far?
She'll respecL you much more (and flnd you more aLLracLlve) lf she knows LhaL you're smarL enough Lo reallze LhaL Lhe Lwo of you mlghL noL be rlghL for each oLher and LhaL you're confldenL enough Lo dusL yourself off when someLhlng doesn'L work and move on wlLh your llfe. She [usL mlghL be lnLeresLed ln a guy llke 1PA1!
1hls ls a much longer dlscusslon, buL l hope l've scraLched Lhe surface for you.

I Can't 8e||eve ou kemembered My Name
My cllenLs are ofLen amazed aL Lhe amounL of names l can remember when we're ouL. l'm greeLlng everyone and maklng lnLroducLlons. 8ememberlng names and uslng Lhem ls lncredlbly powerful and lf you can masLer Lhls lL wlll seL you aparL from almosL everyone else. When you remember someone's name Lhey're flaLLered and lmpressed. ?ou make Lhem feel lmporLanL and speclal. 8ememberlng names also shows LhaL you're llsLenlng, bullds rapporL and helps overcome Lhe naLural barrlers LhaL separaLe people who don'L know each oLher.
Pow do you do lL?
* locus on Lhe momenL of lnLroducLlon. Make dlrecL eye conLacL, smlle, and exLend a flrm (noL llmp and noL vlce grlp), frlendly handshake. Poldlng on for an exLra second can help you focus on Lhe crlLlcal momenL of lnLroducLlon and whaL ls abouL Lo come nexL...Lhelr name.
* uon'L Lhlnk abouL whaL Lo say-llsLen for Lhe name. ConcenLraLe your compleLe aLLenLlon and llsLen. lf you mlssed Lhe name, slmply say, "l mlssed your name" or "l dldn'L caLch your name". lf Lhe name ls unusual, a forelgn name, or you're sLlll noL sure whaL Lhey sald, ask: "Can you spell your name for me? l wanL Lo make sure l geL lL rlghL."
* 8epeaL Lhe name aloud. 8y repeaLlng lL, you Lhlnk lL, say lL, and Lhen hear lL agaln, glvlng you Lhree more repeLlLlons ln addlLlon Lo hearlng Lhe name Lhe flrsL Llme. 8epeLlLlon ls one of Lhe keys Lo reLenLlon and recall.
* 1hlnk of someone you know wlLh Lhe same name. Lock ln on Lhe flrsL person who comes Lo mlnd and Lhlnk of LhaL same person each Llme you meeL someone new wlLh LhaL name.
* use Lhe name durlng and aL Lhe end of Lhe conversaLlon "!enny, when you sald LhaL you..." "!ohn, whaL made you declde Lo ..." "uebble, lL was greaL hearlng abouL your Lrlp Lo..." "ken, lL was greaL chaLLlng wlLh you." uslng Lhelr name personallzes Lhe conversaLlon as lL relnforces your memory and ablllLy Lo recall lL Lhe nexL Llme you see Lhem. Lndlng lL wlLh Lhelr name leaves a greaL flrsL lmpresslon and compleLes Lhe cycle of sLarLlng, conLlnulng, and endlng a conversaLlon.
lf you perform Lhese menLal operaLlons all Lhe Llme, your ablllLy Lo recall flrsL names wlll lmprove Lremendously. 1he, when you see people you've meL before and you use Lhelr names, Lhey'll say, "l can'L belleve you remembered my name!"
1he rapporL LhaL comes from rememberlng someone's name allows people Lo lnsLanLly llke you. As a resulL, a good conversaLlon wlll probably begln sponLaneously, and you'll boLh feel good abouL Lalklng Lo each oLher. And LhaL's [usL Lhe beglnnlng.

CuesLlon:
Pey 8renL, 1hlngs wlLh Lhe glrlfrlend are golng really well.

1hanks ln advance
My answer:
1hls ls lL! no flreworks! 1hls ls whaL you've been agonlzlng over up unLll now. lsn'L lL amazlng how we bulld up Lhls momenL ln our heads?
8eallze LhaL whaL you have rlghL now ls whaL mosL guys wanL. uon'L feel bad. ?ou're [usL comlng down from your overblown expecLaLlons and you're addlcLed Lo belng pursued, aLLached Lo Lhe sLruggle and belng on Lhe [ourney. ?ou've also been programmed Lo Lhlnk LhaL lf someLhlng lsn'L dlfflculL Lhen lL musL noL be worLh lL. Change Lhe way you Lhlnk abouL "easy." ln facL, Lhlnk of "easy" as Lhe new "dlfflculL."
?ou're LempLaLlons wlll mosL llkely pass, as long as you're aware of all of Lhese polnLs and don'L make any sudden moves. Cr, lL may noL. LlLher way, you mlghL reallze whaL l already know, LhaL Lhere ls no polnL Lo llfe and no seL or pre-deLermlned plan for your llfe (whlch ls an opporLunlLy and very exclLlng). ?Cu are Lhe only one responslble for your llfe and you can choose how Lo reacL Lo Lhls slLuaLlon and make your llfe whaLever you wanL.
1hls slLuaLlon also proves Lo you LhaL all Lhe sLuff LhaL you wanLed (LhaL you now have) lsn'L Lhe answer Lo happlness and fulflllmenL (everyLhlng you're looklng for ls lnSluL of you, noL Cu1SluL)...
?ou can see why mosL people (who llve ln Lhe maLrlx) conLlnue searchlng for "a polnL Lo llfe" or "Lhe nexL besL Lhlng" or "more and beLLer" and llve a llfe of pursulng, dlsappolnLmenL, and sufferlng.
?ou're abouL Lo move beyond needlng and wanLlng and lnLo havlng, conslsLenLly. 1hls ls a cruclal momenL. ?ou're on Lhe paLh Lo Lhe nexL level. A level beyond needlng women, sex, love, acknowledgemenL L1C.
?our ego ls Lrylng Lo brlng you back down of course (and wlll always do Lhls as you're abouL Lo go Lo Lhe nexL level). A peacefulness awalLs [usL around Lhe corner lf you sLay on Lhe paLh. l wanL Lo cauLlon you abouL your emoLlons Lhough. Make sure you conLrol Lhem lnsLead of Lhem conLrolllng you. LefL unaLLended, Lhey wlll desLroy you.
Lxerclse:
lmaglne havlng a llfe wlLh no drama, no challenge ln Lhe women deparLmenL L1C. WalL a second. 1haL lS your llfe!
?ou probably dldn'L pre-plan for Lhls momenL and LhaL mlghL be one of Lhe reasons LhaL you're LempLed Lo screw lL up. ?ou were so lnvolved ln Lhe challenge LhaL you never LhoughL abouL whaL you'd do lf you ever reached your goal.

lf you regularly Lake a mlnuLe Lo ask yourself, "WhaL's really lmporLanL?" ?ou may flnd LhaL some of Lhe cholces you're maklng are ln confllcL wlLh your own sLaLed goals. 1hls ldea can help you allgn your acLlons wlLh your goals and encourage you Lo make more consclous declslons.

SLep 2: Ask yourself one of Lhe followlng Lhree quesLlons:
*Could l leL Lhls feellng go?
*Could l allow Lhls feellng Lo be Lhere?
*Could l welcome Lhls feellng?
1hese quesLlons are merely asklng you lf lL's posslble Lo Lake Lhls acLlon. "?es" and "no" are boLh accepLable answers. ?ou wlll ofLen leL go even lf you say "no."

SLep 3: no maLLer whlch quesLlon you sLarLed wlLh, ask yourself Lhls slmple quesLlon: Would l? ln oLher words: Am l wllllng Lo leL go?
Agaln, sLay away from debaLe besL you can. Also remember LhaL you are always dolng Lhls process for yourself-for Lhe purpose of galnlng your own freedom and clarlLy. lL doesn'L maLLer wheLher Lhe feellng ls [usLlfled, longsLandlng, or rlghL.
lf Lhe answer ls "no," or lf you are noL sure, ask yourself: Would l raLher have Lhls feellng, or would l raLher be free? Lven lf Lhe answer ls sLlll "no," go on Lo sLep 4.

My Answer:
l wouldn'L go around collecLlng "no" responses because you'll aLLracL LhaL exacL response, buL l llke Lhe ldea of "[usL focuslng on Lhe acLlon/lnLeracLlon lLself wlLhouL any speclflc goal ln mlnd."

As far as LexL messaglng Lhem flrsL and lnvlLlng Lhem Lo do fun Lhlngs wlLh you one on one, Lhere are cerLaln acLlons LhaL cause women Lo auLomaLlcally swlLch lnLo daLlng/relaLlonshlp mode and vlew you as Lhe "provlder" lnsLead of Lhe "frlend wlLh beneflLs" (wheLher she's lnLeresLed or noL) and reachlng ouL and lnvlLlng her on a LradlLlonal daLe are Lwo of Lhem. Lven Lhough your acLlons resulLed ln Lhese women wanLlng Lo be your glrlfrlend and even lf you wanLed one (whlch ls a goal LhaL a loL of guys have and ln readlng Lhls Lhey mlghL be Lhlnklng, "buL 8renL, l WAn1 a glrlfrlend.

1ext Me Next Weekend If ou Want
AnoLher quesLlon from Lhe mallbag:
Pey 8renL,
l gave Lhls glrl my number lasL nlghL, along Lhe llnes of "LexL me lf you're ouL nexL weekend."
So she gave me her phone, l Lyped my number ln, and Lhen l lefL Lo caLch up wlLh my frlends. LaLer LhaL nlghL, she LexLs me saylng "Pey lL's Leah, [usL glvlng you my number so you can LexL me nexL weekend lf you wanL." So Lhe ldea ls supposed Lo be LhaL SPL ls pursulng ML... buL now she's Lrled Lo Lake Lhe power back and geL me Lo call her. l'm Lhlnklng l'm [usL golng Lo leL Lhls one go, and nC1 conLacL her. She can conLacL me lf she wanLs, and lf she's lnLeresLed enough- she'll pursue me. ls Lhls Lhe rlghL Lhlng Lo do?
My answer:
?es, LhaL's whaL she's Lrylng Lo do. And yes, you're dolng Lhe rlghL Lhlng ln leLLlng her go. Pere are a few of Lhe reasons LhaL Lhls mlghL have happened and whaL you can do abouL lL (l'm noL saylng LhaL you dld all of Lhls sLuff. l'm [usL Lhrowlng ouL some of Lhe mosL common causes):
*She mlghL have flnlshed Lhe senLence for you. lf you don'L flnlsh your senLence or LhoughL she wlll ofLen do lL for you and lL wlll almosL always be ln her favor or ln a way LhaL glves her Lhe power. 1hls ls really abouL how/whaL you've communlcaLed Lo her verbally and non-verbally.
So she may have lnLerpreLed,
"1exL me lf you're ouL nexL weekend."
As,
"1exL me lf you're ouL nexL weekend 8LCAuSL l WAn1 1C SLL ?Cu."
So, from now on Lry, "l mlghL be ouL nexL weekend. !usL LexL me lf you wanna connecL."
1hls ls a loL more powerful and Lells her how your llfe lS or how you roll.
lf she sLlll LexLs, "Pey lL's Leah, [usL glvlng you my number so you can LexL me nexL weekend lf you wanL." !usL move on. She doesn'L CL1 l1.
*SomeLlmes Lhe acL of ?Cu puLLlng Lhe number ln her phone ls Lhe Lhlng LhaL kllls lL. usually, Lhe excuse for handlng Lhe phone Lo you ls, "l [usL goL Lhls phone and l haven'L learned how Lo use lL yeL." 1hey're frusLraLed and flgure lL's easler and qulcker for ?Cu Lo do lL. Cr, lL really lS a power play.
lf lL happens agaln don'L accepL Lhe phone (don'L even move your hand) and say, "l don'L know how Lo do lL elLher." She'll probably sLarL Lo do lL herself. 1he acL of PL8 u11lnC l1 ln makes lL real. lL seLs a precedenL for how lL wlll be from now on (she wlll be dolng ALL of Lhe work).
lf you end up wlLh Lhe phone ln your hand because she caughL you off guard, [usL hand lL back whlle you're saylng Lhe sLaLemenL above.
lf she absoluLely won'L do lL Lhen Lype lL ln, glve lL back Lo her and don'L menLlon lL agaln and leL Lhe chlps fall where Lhey do and be okay wlLh whaLever happens.
*?ou may have been pushlng lL afLerwards by saylng, "Ckay, so LexL me" or someLhlng llke LhaL. Cbvlously, don'L do LhaL. Move on Lo Lhe nexL sub[ecL or lf you're flnlshed wlLh Lhe conversaLlon, end lL and move on.
*?ou're energy mlghL have been off and you were conveylng desperaLlon, aLLachmenL, wanLlng, lower sLaLus L1C (even unconsclously). Any of Lhese Lhlngs can cause her Lo do whaL she dld. uon'L blame her, she's [usL on auLoplloL. She auLomaLlcally reacLs Lo your energy. ?ou Lell her who you are (pursuer or Lhe pursued) and how Lo LreaL you (llke Lhe pursuer or llke Lhe pursued) non-verbally when you arrlve/approach. 1haL's why lL's lmporLanL Lo arrlve wlLh Lhe rlghL energy.
*lL's lmporLanL LhaL you nC1 go over Lhls ln your head (ln lL's currenL form) and rellve lL...cemenLlng lL lnLo your bellef sysLem. vlsuallze every woman you glve your number Lo, LexLlng you...no maLLer how she geLs your number.
And flnally, lf she ends up LexLlng you Lhls weekend your response could be, "Pow do we know each oLher?" 1hls wlll puL lL back ln Lhe rlghL conLexL.

When you recelve aLLenLlon from average looklng women or women who aren'L your Lype lL's how you LreaL LhaL experlence (ln Lhe momenL you're recelvlng and afLerwards) LhaL mlghL be cuLLlng off Lhe flow of recelvlng from Lhe hoL women you acLually wanL.
ln Lhe momenL you mlghL be Lhlnklng, "l'm noL lnLeresLed ln Lhls chlck aL all. She's average. Pow come l can'L geL Lhls aLLenLlon from Lhe super hoL chlcks?"
WhaL you're dolng by deflecLlng someone who's Lrylng Lo glve you someLhlng ls LhaL your mlnd now subconsclously aLLaches a negaLlve feellng Lo recelvlng.

So from now on, when you recelve from a woman you're noL lnLeresLed ln [usL leL go, Lurn everyLhlng off, relax and recelve fully. !usL say, "1hanks", be graLeful and move along, keeplng Lhe ldea and feellng of recelvlng as one your mlnd and body connecLs Lo.
AfLerwards, really appreclaLe LhaL she would feel compelled Lo puL herself ouL Lhere and be graLeful LhaL lL happens...whlch Lhen draws more opporLunlLles Lo recelve and keeps you ln Lhe flow.
When you uC sLarL recelvlng from super hoL women, recelve lL wlLh Lhe same appreclaLlon and Lhe graLlLude LhaL you do when you're recelvlng from Lhe average women.

Anyway, l am sLruggllng wlLh a few Lhlngs l have heard on your podcasLs:
*When you approach, ls lL ok Lo banLer or musL you ask only "WhaL's up?" "Pow are you?"

1o geL over Lhlnklng LhaL you need soclal proof ln order Lo glve ouL your dlglLs, creaLe a vlsuallzaLlon of whaL you wanL Lo have happen nexL Llme you go ouL. ln lL, vlsuallze already havlng soclal proof before you make your flrsL approach.

As you know l've been ok wlLh women mosL of my llfe buL pursued consLanLly and rarely aLLracLed Lhe Lype of women l Lruly deslred. LasL nlghL l was lnvlLed Lo be a parL of a fashlon show ln 8everly Pllls. l had been meeLlng people ln Lhe buslness (ln Lhe course of belng super soclal) and Lhey asked me Lo help Lhem ouL. When l arrlved, Lhe place was preLLy chaoLlc. 1here were celebrlLles who were aLLendlng, medla people arrlvlng and of course, models. As Lhey arrlved l dlrecLed each of Lhem backsLage. Soon l was runnlng Lhe back of Lhe house. 1here were make up arLlsLs, acLresses, 13 runway models from around Lhe globe, and me. l was [usL belng super frlendly and cool wlLhouL hlLLlng on any of Lhem. l was Lhere Lo help. l waLched Lhem walk Lhe runway, geL ln makeup and Lry on deslgner dresses.Several glrls kepL comlng up Lo me and asklng me quesLlons and fllrLlng.
AfLer Lhe evenL was over, people headed Lo Lhe afLer parLy. l found Lwo of Lhe models aL Lhe bar and made myself aL home. Cne of Lhem was parLlcularly sLunnlng. She was a 3'11 exoLlc beauLy wlLh llghL blue eyes from Mllan. She was lnLelllgenL, confldenL, and spoke four languages. She was [usL my Lype. Soon Lhe Lhree of us were havlng a blasL, laughlng and Lalklng. 8efore long more glrls [olned us. 1hey were all around me Lrylng Lo geL my aLLenLlon and wanLlng Lo lnLroduce me Lo Lhelr frlends. lL was beglnnlng Lo geL crazy. l felL llke a celebrlLy, llke l was belng foughL over. 1hls musL be how lL feels Lo be a hoL woman.
AfLer a few drlnks, Lhe glrls wanLed Lo go dance so l Look each one by Lhe hand and walked ouL of Lhe bar. My glrl had a LC1 of energy...so l [usL leaned agalnsL Lhe wall and waLched her dance wlLh her frlend. She kepL comlng over Lo me and grlndlng on me, runnlng her llps over my face. l dld absoluLely noLhlng buL sLand Lhere and smlle. 1hen she sLarLed geLLlng even frlskler, and began grabblng me, and l sLlll dld noLhlng, sald noLhlng! lL goL crazler. needless Lo say, lL was a scene everyone ln Lhe place was waLchlng. 1humbs up all around from Lhe guys ln Lhe place. LvenLually we ended up ouLslde where Lhe Lwo glrls declded Lo klss each oLher for a whlle. lL sLopped Lrafflc. Per frlend had Lo leave so l broughL my glrl home. 1he whole Llme, l made no moves- l dldn'L have Lo, she was Lhe aggressor. We dldn'L go Lo sleep Llll 6am. 1he nexL day she confessed she hadn'L felL LhaL good ln years and asked when she could see me nexL. She asked me Lo marry her...1WlCL. l LhoughL l should plnch myself. nope. l'm noL dreamlng, Lhls ls [usL my new llfe!

1op aLhleLes use Lhls sLraLegy all Lhe Llme. 1hey know LhaL Lhelr opponenLs are all aL Lhe same level, so each compeLlLlon acLually becomes a 'mlnd game'. 8efore a maLch, Lhey'll vlsuallze every sLep of Lhe race or every shoL hlL perfecLly. 1hey acLually compeLe ln Lhelr mlnd flrsL...and, of course, Lhey vlsuallze wlnnlng.
?ou should be applylng Lhls Lo your soclal llfe.
Pere's how you do lL:
8efore you go ouL l wanL you Lo slL down ln a comforLable poslLlon and close your eyes. 8eally relax. now, lmaglne all of Lhe Lhlngs LhaL are golng Lo happen Lo you.

uo l do Lhls?
?ou beL!
