6 Advanced Missions
Once you have completed the 30-Day Challenge, you can then attempt the 6 Advanced Missions. If youre quite new to approaching women, you probably wont succeed with the Advanced Missions until youve completed the initial Challenges...because the Advanced Missions are, well advanced! Pace yourself, stay on course and follow it through until the end. If you can promise yourself to do that, then you will go from Dateless to Dating in 30 Days or Less. Good luck and lets begin! Cheers Dan, Ben & Stu
21 Ways Quotes Simply use the opportunity to get the ball rolling for yourself as well as improving your conversation skills and confidence around women. Remember: This is Day 1 of the Challenge. You are not required to get a phone number at all. On Day 27 of the Challenge, you will be required to get a phone number in this situation. So, for now, just focus on improving your skills and preparing for all the fun youll soon be having with women. Completing the Challenge
Approach a girl during a quiet time of the day...usually before lunch or after lunch. Ben Its turning everyday transactions into friendly, natural conversationsYou need to break her out of that (transaction mode) and communicate to her that youre a friendly guy who she can talk to on a personal level and not on a customer level. Stu You need to have playful, teasing conversationand avoid hiding the fact that youre flirting with her. Ben Youre being lighthearted...youre being cool...youre not standing there trying to pick her up. Dan
Enter the store with the goal of browsing for at least 10 minutes. o This may involve you buying a shirt, a pair of shoes or something similar. However, you shouldnt buy something if you dont want to.
Take your time and be relaxed. Break the assistant out of transaction mode and into an interaction with you for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Find out something personal about her, unrelated to her work. Leave the store. Challenge complete!
Warning: Dont fall into the trap of going after one girl and spending all your time and energy trying to talk to her. If you spend too much time focusing on her (and ignoring almost everyone else), people will notice your pick up attempt and potentially resent you from then on. Opt instead to be one of the popular guys that usually solves everything. Completing the Challenge 21 Ways Quotes
Find a good balance between socializing and learning. Stu If you can be that guy that comes in and helps relieve the tension across the board by helping people connect with each other ...the influence and reaction that will have on women will be amazing.

Day 3 Speedster!
The Challenge Attend a speed dating event and get at least two Yes matches. Note: Get this booked in for yourself today and then move onto Day 4 of the Challenge. Background Speed dating is the perfect way to put your social skills to the test in a fast paced environment and get the ball rolling in your dating life. Speed dating is great if youre not that good at approaching women yet, because you dont actually have to approach any women. You just sit down and both of you start talking to each other. Another good thing about speed dating is that it speeds up the process of you developing the advanced, alpha male mindset of Is this girl good enough for me? rather than the usual Am I good enough to get this girl? That simple mindset switch will have a dramatic impact on your self-confidence and results with women...and this Challenge is a great way to start practicing it! By the way: A Yes match is when both you and the woman select Yes about each other, on your tick sheet that is provided. When you hand in your tick sheet, the event organizers will give you the contact details of the women who said Yes to you. Preparation Speed dating events can be found in local newspapers and on the internet. Type speed dating and your location into Google. For example: Speed Dating New York. You should get a good list of results consisting of a mixture of organizations that specialize in speed dating events and local groups that might be doing one off events to raise money for charity. The key to success with this Challenge is to stand out from the crowd. This requires you to demonstrate self-confidence, personality and a good sense of humor. Refer to 21 Great Ways
to Meet Women to hear Dan demonstrate 7 different examples of how to start the interactions with women in a confident, funny way. You must create a good first impression and keep it rolling for the entirety of each date (usually 2-5 minutes depending on the size of the event). Use what youve learnt so far in the first 2 Challenges and work on keeping the date fun AND light-hearted. Dont be too serious about it all, but do approach it seriously. If you take it too seriously, the woman will smell the ugly odor of desperation and select No next to your name. If youre not interested in some of the girls, still keep up the fun element as it will impress the other women and spark their interest in you. Completing the Challenge

If youre running low on people to invite, try inviting people youve met at the previous Challenges. From our experience, most people are interested in meeting new people and doing fun things, but are simply shy (yes even the ones you think are confident), so it may take a little push to get them to come along. Preparation The goal of this Challenge is to meet new people - especially women through your existing social network. Completing this Challenge now will help you on Day 24 of the Challenge when you organize a house party. If you meet a woman that you find attractive at this outing, dont hone in on her and spend the whole day/evening chatting to her. Make sure you spend time chatting with all your friends. The ability to maintain friendships is very attractive to women and will reflect better on you. If there is a woman at the event (who is outside your group) talk to her, but dont forget about your friends.

As you listen, pay attention and give yourself a pat on the back when you come across things that youve done right. When you come across things that need improving, give yourself another pat on the back and use a bridging mindset like, This is great! Im getting better and better at this. I know what I need to improve and I know how to do it!

Day 17 Cocktail
The Challenge Chat with a female bartender. Break her out of transaction mode and into an interaction. Get her phone number. Background Bartenders are in the centre of the social world when working in popular clubs and bars, so getting their attention tends to be more difficult than in other scenarios. However, you have already practiced Transaction/Interaction in previous Challenges, so this shouldnt be too difficult for you now. Dan worked in the hospitality industry for a number of years in his early 20s. He discovered that a lot of women get jobs in this industry to meet people. Many of the women he worked with, although beautiful, were often lonely and looking for a boyfriend. Preparation In this Challenge, you have to stand out from other guys who hit on her in pretty much the SAME way every time, Hey, can I get a beerand youre phone number? or Hey, youre beautifuldo you have a boyfriend? It almost never works. Your approach will be radically different, so youll have a lot more chance of getting her into a conversation over the course of the night, building up the sexual tension and then getting a number. This Challenge also represents a good opportunity to hang out with some friends (and invite some of your new friends that you met while doing previous Challenges) and have a good time. Female bartenders pay attention to how you behave around your friends, so focus on being the confident, cool guy that you are and everything will be fine.
