Earlier today, I was in this great mood. We went to Whole Foods, and as I was walking in the automatic door, this cute woman starts to go in at the same time. I said, “After you,” and she just looked down at the floor, didn’t smile or anything, and walked in and away.

Don’t Take it Personally
Friday, February 20th, 2009Drop the Validation
Sunday, February 8th, 2009Here’s something really interesting that just happened.
So Taras was just going through his pictures on his camera. He got to a picture of himself and this woman, handed his camera to Steve, and said, “Look, man, she’s really hot,” and then said, “But I really screwed it up with her.”
What he was looking for from Steve was what I call “male-bro validation.” Steve was supposed to respond, “Wow, dude, you’re right. She is really hot,” which would make Taras say to himself, “See, I could get hot women if I didn’t screw it up.” And then it just becomes this long conversation. (more…)
What’s Wrong With PUA Methods?
Wednesday, February 4th, 2009Today i am going to turn over the blog to one of my coaches.
Everybody meet Khiem.
————————-
Most of you guys who’ve read David’s blog already know what David feels about Pickup Artists and their methods. He doesn’t believe in them.
If you’ve read my blog for a while, I’ve already detailed many times what you can and can’t expect from PUA teachings.
It’s not that they necessarily don’t work. Most of them are either childish, manipulative or plainly unnecessary (therefore, it takes you longer to get good with women)
Funny thing is David and I still receive a lot of emails from guys asking us the same question over and over again:
“I recently read a book on xyz method. I want to learn more about attracting women. Do you think xyz method is a good starting point for those learning to attract women?”
Well… before we even answer that question, let me ask you a few of my own:
What are you looking for?
- What kind of man are you? Better… what kind of man do you want to be? Are you wanting to be a Pickup Artist who speaks in pickup lingo to his friends and who always have to think of techniques every time he meets a women or do you want to be a the normal cool guy with whom women always look forward to meet up?
- Where do you want to meet women? A lot of the more funny, gimmicky methods out there are geared for you to use in high energy and loud environments such as bars and clubs. It’s always good to learn how to have fun in any environments because the more you enjoy yourself, the more you project good vibes and the more attractive you become… however, do you really need to learn lines and games for you to know how to have fun?
- What kind of women do you want to meet? I’m not going to lie to you. I’ve hung out with a lot of Pickup Artists and the types of women they attract are not the same kind of women I attract. Enough said. I like to talk to intelligent, caring, independent, emotionally stable and overall confident or self-made women.
When you read about a method, try imagining what kind of women would fall for those techniques. I know a lot of PUA will tell you their stuff works on everyone but if you can feel something is fishy when you use some of their techniques or lines, the woman can too! If they don’t say anything to point it out to you, it’s because they are letting you do your thing… because they already like you.This is a huge topic of contention but when you go out using techniques, ask yourself: how much is the woman liking me because of my use of techniques… and how much is it because she already likes me for who I am and for my energy or vibe?
- Do you see women as just an object to conquer and have sex with or do you truly enjoy and appreciate all that a woman can bring or contribute to your life? This is not a criticism of ALL PUA methods but let’s be honest, a lot of these guys don’t actually like women. They just want to bed them and as such, they have loose standards on what makes a woman worthy of the kind of man they are. I personally don’t want to be with everyone out there. There’re definitely a few women that I won’t associate myself with, no matter how hot they are.
- Do you want your world to center around women? This is the biggest paradigm shift you have to accept. The world of a PUA centers around women: how to meet them, how to attract them, how to seduce them… how to chase them.
Most of the “normal” men who I’ve seen naturally successful with women have their lives centered around what they are passionate about. Women are a hobby. These men don’t place their self-worth on the amount of women they have in their lives. They place their self-worth on whatever activity they get fulfillment from.
Therefore, if your goal is to learn how to attract women by being confident, by being you, you can skip a lot of the PUA methods out there.
The reason I have is very simple: learn more about emotions and how emotions affect the woman and you’ll understand them better, connect with them better and in the end, attract them better.
You don’t need a method to learn how to do that. Methods teach you a set of techniques and tactics. Methods will give you a list of reasons on why their techniques work, how their techniques are based on the women’s needs and that’s why they successfully influence her emotions but I’ll be honest with you, their analysis is not always accurate.
There is no logic to emotions.
If your sole goal is to become a great womanizer, learn empathy and compassion. Learn how to place yourself in her shoes so that you can understand her world. By understanding her world, you will be able to navigate through her own emotional chaos and help her open up to you so she feels comfortable letting herself be seduced by you.
Instead of learning techniques A, B or C, instead of learning WHAT to do, LEARN HOW TO THINK about attraction, learn how to understand the emotions behind sexual arousal to make her feel desired, learn how to relate to the women’s needs and even more importantly, learn about yourself.
Attraction is about BEING attractive, not doing something attractive.
Real attraction starts from within because… (more…)
How To End Every Conversation
Friday, January 30th, 2009Whenever I end a conversation – no matter with whom it is, from a woman I met at a party to the person bagging my groceries at Whole Foods – I always say to them, “See you soon.”
It’s a great thing to say. It’s a much more personal and friendly way to say goodbye. Most people will just say, “Bye,” and that’s fine, but there’s no personal connection about it. Saying “See you soon” implants in the person’s mind that you might actually see them again in the future. (more…)
Enliven your routine
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009Just a quick blog today. Some thing that all of you should be doing everyday….wait it is something you all day everyday!!
What is something that we are doing all of the time in life? We’re running errands.
We’re always running errands. We’re getting our car washed, we’re getting gas, we’re going to the supermarket to buy groceries, we’re going to the art store to have a picture framed, we’re on our way to the dry cleaners. Whatever it is…we are always running errands.

Let Her Seek You Out
Monday, January 26th, 2009So you’re at a party and you lock into “the woman.” You’ve figured out which woman is the one that you really want to get to know.
You guys converse for a few minutes, and then she walks away. And after this, you stop enjoying yourself because all you’re thinking about is “Where is she right now? Is she coming back?”
With all of these thoughts running through your head, you can’t really concentrate on the conversations you’re having with other people. This is where you make the biggest mistake.
You have to understand that the dynamic presence – the power of who you are as a person – will intrigue her. Did you intrigue her enough? If you intrigued her enough, you can just walk away.
A confident man will walk away knowing that the woman will come back. An unconfident man will follow her around and turn her off. The more you follow her around, the more she’ll start to think, “Why is this guy being so needy and following me around?”

How To Successfully Go From Online To Real Life: 6 Key Tips
Sunday, December 14th, 2008I get email practically every day from people who are doing online dating who tell me that they do not have trouble making what seem to be good connections with people online, but who have very little success once they meet those people in person. This is an issue surrounding online dating that does not get discussed all that often, however, it is important to talk about because you want to minimize the amount of time you spend talking online to people with whom you will not connect in real life.
