Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I remember reading on a thread here that someone read Dr. Maxwell Maltz's "Psycho-Cybernetics" and said that it helped them develop a better self-image. From the reviews of that book it seems to be a powerful tool in working your inner-game through a better self-image. I've been reading it and trying to do the exercises for almost a week. Anyone else know anything about this book? Is it the "life changer" that I've heard it can be?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I'm reading it now. I've heard a lot about it and finally decided to have a look myself. It seems brilliant so far, I'm almost halfway through. In almost every chapter I realize something important. A lot of it parallels a lot of other inner game and spiritual stuff I've been going through lately.

I would definately like to hear other peoples opinions of it.

To Shake_it, make a journal and keep doing the exercises for a month and I'm sure you will find out for yourself ;)

yep, that book is a definate. Make sure you make it a real habit to visualize or something like that everyday. it takes a while to reprogram yourself, but its worth it. Most champion athletes swear by that method.

I'm reading the original version, ninth printing. I'll start keeping a journal of my visualizations. Are the relaxation exercises very useful? I know that the visualization exercies are key.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
