"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
48 Laws Of Power & The Art Of Seduction

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Yeah man, I know what you're saying. I say today because a lot of people do seem to think it was different decades ago, that everyone was honest and happy and never needed to lie about anything. Anyone who believes that will simply never get ahead in life.Originally posted by SELF-MASTERY
"Parts of society today." the 48 laws of power is a prime example, that honesty and morality have never been that important to any society. I often here ppl talking about how great the 50's were, about the "greatest generation, how in the past men were real men. THis is all false: the problems we have today aren't much different than problems of the past.
I'm NOT attacking your post.
History is probably the best example, which is why 48 Laws of Power uses great historical examples to support the large claims made.

Hell, the other night I went camping and I had a big bag of some light light green that was regular weed but looked like high quality. Well after getting tired of people wanting to buy it, I'd approach em one by one, and I'd sell a few bucks worth and the ones I didnt like I ripped off the next morning, for as they were hungover and ready to go home, I took their car keys and sort of "lost" them. They were more worried about their keys than their weed and so I slowly but somehow copped back most of my weed and kept all my money. It was a good day indeed.

Oh hell yes, by leaps and bounds. Mostly because these books teach how to look at the world with a different set of eyes. AOS and 48 Laws not only teaches you techniques, it teaches you how to become those techniques.Originally posted by On_the_Top
Not to sound sinicle or anything but I already knew that, man has been evil and only thinking about himself since the dawn of time. Read the social and governmental works of Hobbes and DeToquriville (sp?) But I do have another question for ya, do you fee you have improved since reading and applying what you read from thee books, because I was seriously thinking about getting them.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I have both books and yesterday just picked up Roberts 3rd Book "the 33 Strategies of War" which is a nice sized hardback book on strategies of war that apply to everday life.

I've read both these book and they are both brilliant.
They are both essential AFC reads.
"The Art Of Power" Honestly if you want to arm yourself with the best knowlege for life read this.
"The Art Of Seduction" Not so good if your new or inexperianced at this stuff, but when your abit better it puts the whole thing in perspective, and will take you to the "next level" as i call it.
Reading the site is like readign a book anyway, so why not get some real good books and read em?

as far as the 48 Laws of Power I would say.
Conceal your Intentions
Always Say Less than Necessary
So Much Depends on Reputation – Guard it with your Life
Use Absence to Increase Respect and Honor
Play to People’s Fantasies
Disdain Things you cannot have: Ignoring them is the best Revenge
Now I just started reading the "War Book" but in the preface he says and I quote: "...the greatest battle of all is with yourself-your weaknesses, your emotions, your lack of resolution in seeing things through to the end. You must declare unceasing war on yourself. As a warrior in life, you welcome combat and conflict as ways to prove yourself, to better your skills, to gain courage, confidence and experience. Instead of repressing your doubts and fears you must face them down, do battle with them. You want more challenges..."
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Those laws definitely are great.
Concealing your intentions gives you the ability to exexute your plan without anyone knowing. Not sure how this would work with gilrs considering you have to build up rapport.
Always say less than necessary, definitely applies so that you don't sound like a rambling ****.
So much depends on reputation = social proof which we all know is very very important.
Using absence = not being readilly available, showing u have other interests.... supposidely this gets a girl's interests up
Play to peoples fantasies = definitely makes sense, but every heard to do!
Disdain things = excellent for everyday life!
thoughts everyone?

Chapter 2Originally posted by Jayer
Can anyone else relate these rules to girls?
"He had created a monster. He had allowed a man to see power up close - a man who wanted more, who asked for anything and got it, who felt encumbered by the charity he had recieved and simply did what many people do in such a situation: They forget the favors they have recieved and imagine they have earned their sucess by their own merits."
This can be applied to the treatment of women as well. If you treat a woman like a princess and give her everything she will think she is one and treat you like a peasent since you do not have the power to deal with her.
The line which is in bold pretty much sums up the confusion men have when they do everything for their women and the women end up leaving them with ease as if those men never existed. Women do not care what you did for them in the past but rather what have you done to make them happy today. Even if you help a women with her problems in the past she will never feel forever grateful to you because she will believe she could have done so without you.
Lesson: Do not supplicate to her whims and make sure you are treated with respect.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
