"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.

"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.

As far as I'm concerned, he's a charlatan.

Thus far there has been no evidence supporting the use of NLP.

Right now all we got is a guy who can market himself and his ideas to a desperate audience: post-divorce fortysomethings who are entering their midlife crises.

When true research has been done on NLP, then we will have our answer.

Right now its bollocks.

Is he still alive? Oh yeah, NLP works when its used in the way it was intended instead of some type of parlor trick.

I think Ross Jeffries is onto something. In fact, I think he's doing things at a much higher level, that not many men are able to comprehend yet
Now, it is hard to argue with that video, because of the effect on the woman.
He has used different women in the past, and I would rather give him the benefit of the doubt in that he may not be using a 'plant', and accomplice in seminars and these women's reactions are genuine.

Anyway, I think there are multiple levels to this. and I think its not a bad idea to just keep an open mind to all the possibilities.
I will agree with most people on his particular brand of verbal stuff, like that creepy "Rollercoaster' gimmick, as being weird and too obviously unnatural.
I would never advocate or recommend any guy learning that material.

The sound wasn't working when I tried to watch it, but have listened to some of his audio programs, and read some of his material.

Like someone else said, I try to keep an open mind to his style, and I am not going to say that I didn't get anything out of his stuff-I did, but NLP was not one of them (though I can't say as I tried all that much either). There are two things I didn't like about it:

1) The kinds of things he says to anchor women seen very un-natural. He goes on with these long spiels in the process that sound very cheesy, and says things that I could just see most women looking at you like you're a total weirdo. It might work after you've developed some kind of rapport already and say, are on a date. Maybe it takes practice to get to a more natural delivery, but it just comes off as very bizarre.

2) He uses the salesman approach of "Hey, this stuff works, if it's not working, then you must not be doing it right." In some cases it's true, but I find that approach very off-putting.

I still find a lot of what he has to say interesting, though.
 

"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.

wasn't this the guy who was acting like a dog at a party and trying to sniff Carmen Electra's cloths? ( The Game)

Yep, that would be him

He is weird to the extreme. He makes Tyler Durden seem like the captian of the football team.

He absolutely hates everything and everyone and makes money off of the hopeless.

He is my idol.

LOL.

All good comedy has some truth to it, they say. That must've been why that comment was funny.
