"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.

Well I have just started reading this mammoth book, and Ive just finished the preface, there seems to be alot of indepth things in the book that you have to ponder over but it seems packed with excellent ideas. Any thoughts from people who have read the book ??
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Yes.

Its an excellent blueprint for thinking like a sociopath/psychopath/anti social personality disorder sufferer and being out for self only and no one else.

You want to become like the natural born predators there's pretty much no better book to read than this one.

It's pretty dull past chapter five. A good read nonetheless.

However, I would HIGHLY recommend the movie.

Usually movies are better, anyway.

Cheers!

It's worthless, you read 500 pages and go "ooooh!" and when you are finished you realize you haven't learned anything. It just sound good when you read it but you cannot apply it.

The 48 laws of power is an excellent read. It contradicts itself at times, , but it is invaluable nonetheless.

Anyone who claims that they have learned nothing from it, has poor comprehension skills. The laws are explicitly stated, well explained, and reinforced by historical accounts of what happens when these laws are observed or ignored. As a student of management and martial arts, many of these principles have foundations in classical military and political science, referencing texts and historical figures that have been studied for hundreds and even thousands of years.
