Actionable books on game and dating?

[Thebestthereeveris]

No theories i want actionable books on dating, game, life improvement in general. Im pissed for several reasons i wont be saying here lol but I want to go back hardcore into dating. I can just sarge and go ham but i tend to do better with proven systems and processes vs trying to figure thingso ut on my own like a mad man. Any books on game that has practical action steps? Models by mark manson is one ive read and will read again but other suggestions would be hepful thanks.

You can try Atomic Attraction by Christopher Canwell. I’d recommend skipping Part One to save time—it focuses on physical fundamentals like working out, hairstyle, money, SMV, having “rizz” or swag, etc.

You can also check out Corey Wayne’s book The 3% Man (I think that’s the title). I haven’t read the book myself, but I watched his videos back when I had oneitis and was trying to figure out how to deal with time-wasters.

I like coach Corey Wayne but he seems too "tame' for me. I agree with 85% of his stuff though.

I found Roosh’s Game useful. Tough to find now.
Assanova’s blogs, Rollo’s first book too.

You need to develop your emotional intelligence and real confidence to truly get past the hump. Content like Corey Wayne’s material can work as training wheels for men who lack experience or self-assurance, but eventually you reach a point where systems and bullet points are no longer enough. If you keep relying on them, you come across as robotic and weird. At that point, ChatGPT has more human elements than you do.


Take sales for example. Everyone knows the basic Sales 101 tactics. What separates great salespeople from the average and the weak is not memorized lines but qualities like emotional intelligence, strategic thinking, adaptability, and resilience. The same principle applies to dating and life in general. It is the human elements that make the real difference. The guys that can tie human elements with efficient systems are the elites in any category.

All books are cope.

Get in the game and get experience.

Figure out what you did, what happened, and whether it was good or not.

Then tweak your game appropriately and try again.

Sure, maybe reference some books and ideas along the way, so you know you're practicing the right things, but experience and real world practice beats sideline learning all day long.

Social skills are programmed into your DNA.

You don't need to learn them from a book.

There's no book I can think of that tells you what you SHOULD do.

But I do have recommendations for books that can help you identify what you're CURRENTLY doing, and make adjustments to fit your goals.

Mindset - Carol Dweck

The Art of Seduction - Robert Greene

I can see why people say game from books is cope but its a good to have the right roadmap.

Honestly, if you've read one seduction book, you should have the main gist. They tend to be cookie cutter for the most part. The main thing is to take action, and secondary to that is to avoid the big mistakes. And you should know what the big mistakes are if you've read one seduction book. I've always thought a man's "game" (not really fond of that term) has to be his own at least to some extent - so once you have the basic information, there's a certain amount of things you need to learn for yourself, from experience.

I got some value from Brett Maverick on YT for looksmaxing.

I disagree. Books contain the distilled knowledge of those who came before us such as thinkers, strategists, rulers, and survivors who paid in time, blood, and failure for the lessons they left behind. You can either repeat their mistakes blindly or absorb their wisdom and move faster.

Life is short, and trying to figure everything out alone is inefficient. I think intelligent people don’t start from scratch, they actually build on what others have already figured out. Books give you access to hundreds of lifetimes’ worth of hard-earned experience and trial and error.

Books are fantastic if they supplement an active learning process based on experience. But waiting on the sidelines by reading book after book to make sure you know exactly what to do before you tiptoe safely onto the playing field is pure cope. And most redpill content is specifically curated to cater to these types. Just don't get stuck in analysis paralysis.

The bottom line is this:

Unless you are willing to approach a woman and not have any idea what you're going to say or do until you start talking, and learn from that experience, books and desire for information does more harm than good.

I thought Neil Strauss' Rules of the Game was good because the book was literally a 30-day action plan. Another reason is that Neil teaches you how to have better interactions with anyone under the guise of seducing women.

That's really the only book you need. Everything else is the same framework sans storytelling.
