His writing just keeps getting better. Keep it up Pook.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

"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.

When I read B.S. like that last post on Pook's Mill, I ask myself the exact same question.Gaucho said:

Ever since Pook entered into the whole "I hate feminism" phase of his life, I can't help but wonder if he has become sexually inactive. Anyone with that much hate for a female movement is bound to become bitter toward women.
Yes, feminism has fvcked up a lot of things in society, but most women are NOT feminists. A masculine man will cause a woman to be more feminine, and a feminine woman is a beautiful woman.
We may not be able to single-handedly reverse what feminism has done to society, but we can find enjoyment in the beauty of a woman.

I always wonder where people see hate and bitterness in pooks posts. Yes, they tend to be very rethorical and deep but I can't see hate. He said that it's an anti-feminism block but he never said all women are feminists or anythuing like this. In fact, in one of his recent posts ( Purpose of life is to win, not to survive) he talk about the DJ seeing getting women as fun and exciting. I can't see how that is negative, DJ=pooks mindset so HE sees getting women as fun and exciting. He once said that sometimes it can become to much and take too much of his time but other than that I think he is still sexual active.
"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.

Uh, lately Pook hasn't been hating on women. He's going the other way in fact. You need to read his latest.

Pook never turned hateful towards women.
Just critical of the destructive effects of a women's movement that in addition to doing a lot of good may of quite possibly done a lot more bad.
He evolved in his thinking.
He gave us the positive care free message on Sosuave and now he has moved on to deeper subjects.
Wanting him to return to Sosuave form is wanting him to live in the past rather than where he is at and moving forward to now.
The poster who said that sometimes people here and elsewhere get the crabs in the barrel mentality and try to pull others down was correct.
Fortunately that mentality will never be mine.
Keep moving forward and evolving Pookster.

I am in no ways bringing Pook down, whatever floats your boat. But if you want inspirational writing, you can go into your local book store, or search all over the internet, it is everywhere, people have been simply writing about it for thousands of years.
Or you can just look around you and see people who are so successful and happy, they don't need to write about it, they lead by example.
I take nothing from such rhetoric, I look at those doing what they love and with a smile on their face, who are kind to everybody and open in their advice, and respect them. A guy who hides behind fancy words and gives advice without prooving a thing, is just another run of the 'mill', 'artist' IMHO.
Nevertheless, his writing is well respected amongst the sosuave community and seems to have hit home for quiet a few, so good on him in that aspect!

I guess its cool if you want to preserve Pook's memory and image or whatever.... but "Just live in the talent"?
live....in the talent?
what-ever.
EDIT: I mean to say with this inspirational stuff it gets to a point where nobody knows what the author is exactly talking about anymore but nobody cares because he is "inspired" "enlightened" and hey, inspirational messages are ALWAYS good, de facto and de jure. (I actually dont know what the second expressions means lol).
An inspirational message has to be targeted to its audience like any other peice of writing. You can excuse Pook on the basis that he's on a higher level than someone like myself, but then who is this spiritual elite that is reading Pook's work and finding truth in the mantra "Live in the talent?"
So I guess I just have to accept that Pook is over my head, and that the reason his writing makes no sense to me anymore is because I havent reached his level. Well, if that were the case he could be a little more cryptic and esoteric rather than speaking in tones which seem open to be understood by everyman. Because he still writes like an inspiration for the man in the street except it doesnt make sense anymore. Live in the talent? Sex and man's striving form an ellipse?

I dunno, for me it's not really hard to understand. It's about using your sexual energy to accomplish greatness. It's not a new theory. It's more about accepting that reality of yourself instead of using your sexual energy for merely pleasure alone. I think it's a good observation on human nature that a lot of modern men miss.Technical1 said:
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
