Great post. That mentality usually only follows when you realize how much abundance there is. When you think this is your only shot at something good you cling to it tightly, if you have options it’s easy to let go.

David,

I think you know a lot of good stuff. But I also think you SHOULD know that emailing:

“Enjoy the ice cream that you were talking about…”

Is pathetically GAY. haha

Why? Well, I KNEW it was instinctively when I read it. Cause I’m a natural.
Let me see if I can figure out on the fly, why that’s so sad.

I think it sounds like something a chick would say.
I know you can justify it all you want, but it came off weak.

OK…I got it! It’s really a PRIME example of GIVING AWAY YOUR POWER!

How ironic…you dedicated an ENTIRE blog posting to NOT giving away your power without realizing you GAVE it away before the fact. All the machinations you went through afterwards would have been unnecessary had you not given away your power in the email…

Whooooooooooo!!!

Khiem,

I totally agree with you on the way you see it! That’s exactly it as I see it. Then if there is equal giving, you are both rolling forward in a relationship.

I am James Bond when others call my cell phone and my ring is the James Bond theme…..if I know who it is and I am in a public place, I actually answer it “Bond….James Bond” and wink at the lady near me….always gets a kick out of them:-)

We should note that James Bond is a FICTIONAL character. It’s good to have confidence like James Bond, but he is still a FICTIONAL character. His life is scripted by screenwriters. David’s life is written by himself, because he teaches men about being confident and authentic in themselves and not being this fictional character. Many of the men here on these blog comments, including myself, can attest to David attracting “hot” women, because we have seen him practice what he preaches.

Michael, you are totally wrong. Guys, LISTEN! if you listen to david’s advice, you can get any woman you want whether they’re super hot or not-so-hot. Some people tend to think that if a woman is hot or good looking, then she would normally choose a hot guy: someone who’s sexy, deadly gorgeous, i.e. a model-type. WRONG! 100% WRONG! And then when they see the gorgeous girl with some regular looking guy? they’d be like “omg she actually has an ugly boyfriend” or “why on earth did she pick him?he doesn’t even look that good”.

You don’t necessarily have to be hot in order to get a hot woman. You just gotta show respect, look clean (or i.e. hygiene-conscious), relax, and just be yourself. That’s it.

Michael

What are you talking about?

Walk like James Bond Yes.

Stand at a bar looking cool maybe.

I have no idea who you are and what you are like in real life but I think I have a very distinct advantage here,

I am the one who gets all levels of communication and you are just looking at becoming a character.

How old are you?

My guess is 24 or 25.

You sound like a really young guy who is just starting to experiment with meeting women and as a young guy who is trying to find themselves in the world.

Your advice has many holes in it.

Yes watch Bond movies and if you ever listened to my mens mastery series I actually tell guys to watch Bond movies.

But that is only part of the equation and you need to be able to combine humor and self confidence.

And you really did not read my last comments………If you did you would not come back with the same if you want to date women.

What type of women do you date?

And what type of women do you think I date?

Lets answer some of these questions so we can have an intelligent conversation instead of just rambling on about being James Bond.

Looking forward to this.

Michael,

I think you are correct that women (almost all women) are attracted to confident men (and the James Bond character is a good example of a man who approaches women with total confidence).

I would take issue with how you extrapolate that concept from there though … I would never be attracted to a man who “acted” confident or tried to act like someone else who is confident in the same way i would be attracted to any man who was authentically confident and acted like HIMSELF.

Women don’t want men who put on a “pretend” persona or go around faking confidence. Women are attracted to men of all different personalities (funny, goofy, serious, sultry etc) as long as he is being himself and does so confidently.

So your comment about “monkey humor” I think is not necissarily true. For example, I am very attracted to guys who are funny — and if a guy is authentically so (and not trying to fake being so), then that can be very attractive to me.

Becoming attractive is all about becoming totally comfortable with who you truly are and then going out and meeting people totally confident about who you are … You will absolutely attract women all the time if you do this.
