In 2010 I spent 12 days running a workshop in Amsterdam. My business partner and I organized a 8 day workshop with 6 clients and at the time, we needed two female models to help us run these programs. The models would interact with the clients while we filmed and then we would break down the video. Very similar to what we do with the mock dates we offer our clients. We brought 1 girl with us and organized another two who lived in Amsterdam but the day of the workshop, they flaked. So that morning I had to go out to Dam Square and round up to more girls. They had to be: a) hot b) … [Read more...]
7 Reasons Why You’re Failing To Connect With Women…
Listening is a simple skill to master. It consists of two parts: focusing your attention on another person, and communicating to them that you’re present. This means you’re actively processing what they are saying, and at the same time, sending non-verbal signals like good eye contact. This isn’t too complicated. As social beings, it’s something humans are hard-wired to do. Even the best responses like paraphrasing, asking thoughtful questions, and giving feedback are skills we naturally pick up in the course of our lives. Everyone knows they need to make eye contact while they’re … [Read more...]
Being Objective About Emotions
When making decisions, whether they’re major life decisions or day-to-day choices, one of the most important concepts is to be objective: to take in all of the relevant data, determine the possible outcomes, and choose the best choice based on the constraints. When doing this, emotions will f*ck you up. What stops people from reaching their goals nine times out of ten? Acting on short-term emotions instead of doing what they KNOW they need to do. Most people don’t come anywhere close to viewing their emotions objectively. What separates winners and losers is that winners are able to take … [Read more...]
Being Good At Math = Women & Money
Today we bring you another post by our guest writer extraordinaire, Matti. Another topic covered in the Complete Man Workshop was calculating Expected Value (EV). This blog post will probably be a bit drier than the Bunt vs Home Run post, because I don’t know how to drop references to f*cking busty blondes in the arse while talking about calculating ratios… So let’s say you want to make a bet on the likelihood of a certain event happening. For this example, I’ll use hitting a 3-pointer (if you don’t know what a 3-pointer is learn sports f*ckface). Let’s say I historically hit 25% of the … [Read more...]
2 Easy Steps To Building Wealth
One of the topics Justin talked about at the workshop was the importance of going for bunts rather than swinging for the home run. For you foreigners who don’t know what bunts and home runs are: 1) learn f*cking sports 2) bunting is basically when you go for a series of safer wins with limited upside each time, rather than shooting for the unlikely win with huge upside. Now I would relate this principle to my personal business experiences, where I stacked up a series of bunts to make big money in the end and contrast that with when I swung for the home run and missed…unfortunately, my … [Read more...]
Meeting Women Through Tinder
For all of us who are feeling as though their online dating lives have been dim and dismal lately, we finally have something better, more simplified and modernized than more traditional sites like Match and eHarmony. There is no denying it: Tinder is the newest craze in the dating world. If you’re not familiar with tinder, you’re a nerd living under a rock and I’m not going to bother explaining what it is. Due to the platform, the strategy is slightly different but all the rules of dating and more specifically, online dating, still apply. Building Your Profile: My favorite part about … [Read more...]
Online Dating
Online dating is now the second most common way that people are getting together. The good news is, you have access to a ton of beautiful women by a click of your mouse. The bad news is, so does every other guy. It’s a very competitive market, and most guys who put up a profile and send a few messages do not get the response they were anticipating. Their messages go unread, women don’t respond, and very few visit their profile. A hot girl will receive on average 25-35 messages per day! This is in addition to her normal social life, which is jam-packed with social opportunities, … [Read more...]
8 Differences Between Winners and Losers
Through the years I have compiled a subconscious list of things that winners do and losers do: word choice, behavior, etc. A lot of this will be anecdotal evidence, but that's good enough for me. A client of ours said earlier, "I need a game plan" or something like that. 100% of my broke friends say things like that. "I think (but can't prove) I need a plan" is an excuse to not do anything. You get to feel okay about yourself masturbating and sitting on your lazy ass 24 hours a day getting nothing done cause you don't have a plan, cause boy oh boy once you have that magical plan you … [Read more...]
If She Could Only See Me for the Great Guy I Am
I know a lot of very wealthy, very successful, socially untrained men. Every single one of them is unhappy/feels like he's missing something important in life. In my experience, most men think they will be at a park one day and a conversation will magically happen with a gorgeous girl who is sweet, nice, educated and sees you for all your amazing non-shallow qualities. You will have true love and happiness forever. It does not work that way. This girl is attracted to confidence, leadership, and she will not see through to your amazing non-shallow qualities. Also, she has 400 guys hitting on … [Read more...]
