"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.

Merry Christmas everyone! Looking to jump start my game for 2017 (i've fallen off in the worst way). Any suggestions for reading material to start off with? Years ago I read several books/ebooks (which helped tremendously) and i'm looking to get back where I previously was. Would appreciate any advice that you guys can provide. Thanks in advance!


P.S I'm going start off with Pook's ebook... any other suggestions?
 

"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.

48 Laws of Power, The Hero With a Thousand Faces and Ego is the Enemy (Ryan Holiday). I haven't gotten to reading any of those yet but I managed to skim through "Ego is the Enemy" and it was a great read from what I collected. The other two books have had great reviews coming from other readers everywhere.

Models is good if you want to be more authentic. Lots of people mention the art of seduction.
I tried reading the way of the superior male but I hated it. A whole book of fortune cookie quotes.

All of Robert Greene's book

Think and Grow Rich

The way of the superior man

The Charisma Myth
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Models and also the best experience is going out there and practicing what you've learnt.

The best form of practice is approaching and conversing with females in real life, that way you will further improve your skills and confidence.
 

"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.

Just reading pick up books is kind of lame. Read some classics to that stand the test of time:
Catcher in the Rye
To kill a Mockingbird
Lord of the Flies
Flowers for Algernon
Etc.

Catcher in the rye at Xmas you might end up topping yourself. I d suggest a couple that r even more foundational.

The will power instinct
The power of habit

Both r Science based examinations of how best to change your behaviour so u will not "...Drop way off" again. It's great that you're stepping back into the ring. A lot of people reflect and plan at this time of year and then backslide because they try and use willpower as their fuel instead of habit.
