"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I never really cared for the term "Don Juan", which would explain why I always use quotation marks when I use the term. I suppose that makes me the only person that has voted Pick Up Artist. Honestly, there's not much of a difference. I just prefer one term over the other.

"DJ's" are generally more self-righteous about being a "well rounded individual," yet 98% of the posts ask about how to deal with oneitis. Bit less nonsense in the PU community.

I think that DJs simply focus LESS on outer game...

I've been doing a bunch of PUA stuff, and never have I seen a better balance between inner and outer game, as opposed to what this board porfesses. Just because PUAs offer more routines and material doesn't mean there is more shallowness... A good PUA understands the need to control his own frame before anything else.

My 2 cents.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

As I see it, a PUA focuses on women while a DJ focuses on himself (being a "real man", controlling nature, living life). I'm so enamoured with the DJ concept because of what Pook laid out in his philosophies. That's the way I want to be.

I don't consider myself a DJ so much as it's what I aspire to.
