Take this book for what it issimply it is Knowledge and Nothing more.
Knowledge is power, BUT it is not skill. It brings you power to act, but it will not bring you
wisdom.
To get true wisdom you must experience the journey for yourself. Experience the journey
through good times and the bad times. You will live through the experience and become better
for it.
To succeed you must ACT.
Act repeatedly even when it seems like you are getting no result on the outside. You are
cultivating your inner world every time you step up and take action. Dont chase the end result.
Life is not a destination, it is a journey.
Take action.
Take it now and dont wait for another day to pass you by. Take action even when you think it
seems like it is not working. Take it especially when you think it is not working and before you
know it
YOU will accomplish your goals.

About the Authors

Edge - Has spent the last 9 years of his life wrapped in the seduction community. He devotes his
life to self-improvement and helping those around him. He practices Yoga and meditation.

Legend Has spent the last 3 years of his life falling down the rabbit hole. He is known for his
fury, fire, and un-surmountable ego. He spends his time improving his life and living his dream.

This book is the culmination of our experiences through 2008. It is written in the form of a
guide, but the information within every chapter was gleaned using the tools in the real world and
then writing down how we would have wanted someone to explain them to us.
This guide strives to put pick-up and seduction into a simpler light. I have found that the simpler
things usually work better. There is no reason to over complicate things. This guide is written in
short chapters. Practice and internalize them one at a time and you will achieve the results you
are looking for.

The Basics
There are many guides available, but in my experience they are sorely
lacking in that most of them were published years ago, when pick-up was treated
more like a script-dispensing exercise. This is a guide on everything you need to
know to have an understanding of the core elements of pick-up.

With this knowledge and with practice, youll have enough skill to pull most
girls and get a girlfriend.

If you read through it and practice you should have no problem getting a level of
skill where you could have most girls in 3 months if you practice enough. Practice
in field is the key to success.
We pride ourselves on putting out next generation content and running the best
blog in the community providing the most practical free advice. Our Blog has
grown to be one of the most popular Blogs in this area of self-improvement in only
six short months.
Keep reading, commenting on the Blog and checking back for new stuff well be
putting out in 2010 and beyond.

Chapter 1:

Taking Action

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 18

Why You need to take Action


Legend: If youre here reading this, then you are taking the first step to improving
your dating life. We all want to change and get better results or you wouldnt be
here.
To change you need to take action. Its not going to come from reading or studying
material. Study a little bit and then learn in real life in the field. An hour in the
field is worth a 100 hours of reading and watching videos.
For many years, we have developed bad habits and society has conditioned us into
a walking daze where we dont take action and go after what we want. Hollywood
has conditioned us to always look for happiness in the future. The truth of the
matter is if we dont take action to change our conditions, they will never change.
If you follow the steps in this guide you will get your desired outcome. Some areas
you will need to work on. Some will come naturally to you.
The bottom line is you have to take action and try new things to get results.
Every segment will present a new concept for you to study and then go out
and practice.
If you want to learn, you need to practice this stuff. Were going to give you the
tools that you will need for free. Were not going to market this e-book into a $97
thing. We are all about sharing the basic information. These are the core concepts
of pick-up and seduction, which are hidden and spread around all the forums and
websites.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 19

This guide is our personal understanding of what we have been doing in 2008 in
the field. Some of it is basic and some of it is more advanced, but it is easily on par
with any other e-book you would pay for.

Dont over-complicate your life by learning things you wont need. Keep it
simple in practice and you will get results.

This article set is stuff I currently use. It reflects my current understanding and
experience with it.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 20

Levels of Understanding
Edge: When it comes to learning a new skill set or area of study, I believe we have
some limiting beliefs in our culture that blocks our potential to really master
something. I think its easy to assume that if youre able to respond to questions by
spouting back a little fact, you know it.
And why not? I mean, thats what school taught us, right? You stay up all night,
study study study, then regurgitate the information onto an exam sheet. I cant tell
you how many times I would pass a class only to have forgotten nearly all of the
course material the following semester.
I want to discuss a concept that revolutionized the way that I thought about
learning. I apply this to all areas of self-improvement, but it is especially true in the
area of dating, seduction, and pick-up.
The concept is depth of understanding. I think wed all agree that there are some
subjects where we have a basic understanding of whats going on (enough to get
by) whereas in other subjects we have a very deep understanding of whats
happening. Our deep understanding in an area grants us the liberty to not just
understand or get by, but to innovate, to imagine, to strategize and to execute
with finesse.
And executing with finesse is what we should all be aiming for. I mean, I think all
of us know that we can get someone no matter where we are in the game. Were in
it because we want to get the best we can get.
And since were in this to get better results than what wed been getting, then we
need to get a deeper understanding of what were working with.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 21

I can promise you that anything you feel you have a deep understanding of is
something that you have working with extensively over a period of time. You
didnt just read books about it. You didnt just ask questions on forums. No, you
performed within the area youre studying. You made mistakes. You felt, saw,
handled, moved, reacted, strategized, and gained a lot of real word experience.
Learning to improve with women is no different. You are not going to get a skill
from reading a book or watching a seminar. You may get enthusiasm. You may
get inspiration. But you wont get skill, and that is what you want to get.
Where do you get skill? In the real world out there.
Thats why Legend and I harp on it time and again. You need to be performing in
this area of study to make any kind of progress. It is required take it from me - I
spent WAY too long studying and studying this stuff for years because I was too
afraid to actually try it on my own.
Embrace mistakes. Embrace confusion. Embrace discomfort, embarrassment,
anger, loneliness, sadness, frustration. Embrace all of it because by walking the
actual path and actually participating in real life, you will continually be imbued
with more and more skill. The more you can embrace taking on real life
experiences and handling them, the more that you will have skill.
As a closing note on this: Being able to do the right pick-up move at the right time
is only half of this game. The other half is resilience: Being able to handle
everything that comes up, good or bad, and continuing onward.
This all comes from experience.

P a g e | 22

How to Practice
Legend: You are going to need to create goals and follow them. If you want to get
good youre going to have to continually go out and practice. Its not rocket
science, but it will take time. The trick is that only you can hold yourself
accountable. I can show you the tools and you can even watch skilled people in the
field, but in the end no one else is going to open conversations for you and no one
else was going to kiss the girl for you and I certainly cant have sex with the girl
for you.

If you need some personal help I will give you the tools to get the girls:

Take small baby-steps toward your goals
every day ..and. you will get there.

Chapter 2:

Setting Goals and Expectations

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 25

Introduction
In this section we are going to talk about why it is important to manage your goals.
Also we are going to talk about why setting expectations before starting out can
help you greatly in your development.
Legend:

What do you want to get from the dating world?


If you want to change yourself youre going to have to ask yourself what you want
to get from the game, then plan accordingly. Every person is going to have a
different desired outcome and your tastes and desires most likely will change over
time. Different skills are going to be required to get different results. Before you
do anything, get clear on what you want.
Do you want a girlfriend?
You might want to develop a plan of action where you are focused more on day
game. By day game I mean meeting women during the daytime in common places
and chatting with them. Youre going to need to get really good at creating a sense
of comfort and connection, and youre going to have to go on lots of dates. (Day
twos / Day 2s)
Do you want your choice of women and to have multiple relationships?
If you want to date around, you are going to need a combination of night and day
game to give you as many new ways of meeting women as possible. You are going
to have to really round out all of your skills.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 26

Edge: I agree - have as many avenues as possible in your lifestyle to meet women.
Go out and meet women during the day: in coffee shops, in bookstores, on the
grocery store line, on the subway, on the street, etc. Attend events, groups, classes,
fairs, parties anywhere where people are getting together where there is a
common interest (even if the common interest is to just have fun and meet people).
Going out to night clubs, bars, lounges, parties, raves, concerts these are all great
things to do at night, though some people do not like the atmosphere. My approach
was to master these environments though I did not initially find them enjoyable at
all - I like them now that Ive learned to cut loose and have fun.
Legend:
Do you want Same Night Lays (SNL) and Threesomes?
You are going to want to perfect your attraction game. Youll be hitting the bars
and nightclubs where youre going to want to perfect fast sexual escalation and be
extremely good at handling logistics.
Edge: I would also say get comfortable with having women around who are openminded and fun. Girls you can go out with who wont mind you flirting with other
girls. Having women around you who genuinely enjoy your company and think
youre a good guy makes you very attractive to other women.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 27

Legend:
You have to create an action plan and train for what you want.
Decide what you want and then plan accordingly. Dont try to become a guru at
pickup if you just want a girlfriend. Youre not going to need to go out five times a
week to become social. You only need a basic skill to get the girl. If you want to
start doing crazy stuff, then you have to practice more. Manage your expectations
and realize what you really want. Youre not going to need to study for years to get
a girlfriend, but if you want to have repeated same night lays or threesome with
two strippers it might take a lot more practice, skill, and some dumb luck.

Setting Goals
The most important thing about goals is that you write them out, so you can look at
them and consistently hold yourself accountable for the goals. If you write them
out, you are going to be much more likely to actually accomplish them. Setting
goals in a way that you can actually accomplish them is very important. This is
why I break goals into two sections.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 28

1. Over Arching Goals


The point of an overarching goal is to set an ultimate desired result for your efforts.
It is your main end goal, a goal that could take a month or a year or longer to
accomplish. Whatever your overarching goals may be, take time and write them
down.
2. Step by Step Goals
The purpose of having step-by-step goals is to break your learning into small,
attainable chunks and have small goals that you can reach daily or weekly. This
way you can consistently see progress toward your overarching goals and keep
your motivation to move forward. Write out your step-by-step goals that will allow
you to reach your overarching goal.
This is the beginning step - dont forget foundational planning or you will run into
problems later.
Edge: I would add that its important to find as many ways as necessary to trick
yourself into taking action. Starting to do something is the hardest (and most
essential) part. Sometimes I really dont feel like writing, but Ill say to myself,
OK, Im going to sit down and write for 5 minutes and if it sucks Ill just stop.
Before you know it, Ive spent two hours writing great stuff! So keep that in mind
when youre stepping outside of whats comfortable - set an easy first step.

Chapter 3:

Beliefs, Female Psychology, Confidence

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 30

Foundational Beliefs

Legend:
Myths
There are many myths in society and in the pickup community. One of the greatest
hurdles I have found is the idea that we can come up with perfect lines and avoid
rejection. If you got into the community through Mystery and the VH1 show
The Pickup Artist, whether it is season one or two or by reading The
Game by Neil Strauss, then you may have developed some bad habits
without realizing it.
The community thinking from a few years ago was that the pick-up artist (PUA)
can come up with this elaborate routine stack or through patterns that would
convey their personality in a way that they would never get rejected. Also that you
could have any woman you wanted. The more I study and the more I practice, the
more I realize this is not true.
Ive found that to really go out and get good at this, you must become used to the
approach and embrace rejection. If you can embrace rejection and continually
practice and push your comfort zone, you will learn this stuff very quickly.
There is no magic bullet, but there is a secret. The secret to getting good is to
become confident with women. Now dont roll your eyes because youve heard
that before 100 times I am going to actually explain what this means in a way
that you can understand concretely and apply in your life later in this article.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 31

We have a limited amount of time in our lives and we can use it to cultivate value
within ourselves. Society pitches that we need good looks and money to be
successful with women. This is not necessarily true. Women want emotional
stimulation, so I feel that instead of cultivating your wealth or trying to attain some
ridiculous standard of beauty, it is much easier and sensible to cultivate your
confidence and humor.
What Men Want
Lets look at how men work. When deciding if we are attracted to a woman or not,
we look at visual cues. We think logically and step-by-step. To get good with
women we need to realize how they work, how they think, and above all what they
are attracted to.

What Women Want and How They Work


I am going to state this very simply because there is no reason to make this
complicated. I would encourage you to read each sentence and contemplate it what it means, what it looks like, what are the implications. Really contemplate
each sentence of the next paragraph.

Women are attracted to behavioral cues. It takes them longer to select a mate and
they think emotionally. It doesnt matter what you look like, if you can stimulate
them emotionally. They look for confidence and humor above all else.
This game is all about Creating Confidence and Becoming Competent

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 32

The number one thing that women want is a confident man. This leads us to the
question of how do we become confident with women. It is not rocket science, but
it will take time.
Being confident is all about being comfortable in any situation and knowing what
to do. This really comes down to practicing enough so that youve experienced
many things and you automatically do the right thing.
Edge: I think there are two elements to cultivate here.
One is worldliness exposing yourself to as many different things, situations,
circumstances, places and types of people as you can. Open-mindedness is
definitely a plus here.
The other is your ability to handle different situations and circumstances. I have
found the best way to get good at this is to: 1) experience a lot of situations, even if
they may be uncomfortable, foreign or scary to you at first, 2) stay in the present
moment dont retreat into your mind, dont judge things, dont think about the
past, dont think about the future and stop trying to analyze, strategize and
mentally pigeonhole everything. Let new experiences wash over you and
remember that every new experience is one step towards mastery.
There are unpleasant things that I can handle much better now since Ive
experienced them a bunch of times and Ive learned to deal with them with
composure and presence of mind. Being rejected is hard. Breaking up with
someone you love is hard. Approaching women when youre afraid to approach is
hard. But it all gets easier as you handle it, learn from it and then mentally
release the experience (that is, let go of it and not ruminate on it.)

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 33

Legend:
Lets relate this to something that we can all understand: Driving a car.
Almost everyone can relate to driving a car. Think back to when you just started
learning to drive. It was extremely scary and you probably had trouble backing up
out of the driveway let alone even being able to look in your mirror while
signaling.
After practicing for days in the parking lot, you are then comfortable enough to
take it to the side streets. The highway still scared the crap you. Maybe after a year
of solid practice you didnt have to think about doing everything anymore. Instead,
it became natural to merge onto the highway at high speeds or use your turn signals
without thinking about it.
This is how we have to be in order to be good with women. Slowly we have to
progressively desensitize ourselves to being around women and being in
different situations with them until we are comfortable and all the skills that
youre going to learn come out naturally.
This is an experimental process. Dont expect an overnight transformation, but if
you practice you will get good.
Getting yourself to a place where you can start achieving results in your life can be
difficult. Ive been doing the success with women thing for a long time and Ive
learned a few special tricks along the way to dial my internal state and learning the
secret steps to getting out the door and achieving the results I wanted in my life. I
want you to achieve the results you want in your life now. I created the Inside
Interview Series for guys just like you who want real results in their lives. Go here

Chapter 4:

Body Language and Eye Contact


Introduction:

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 36

Edge: I think a lot of guides on eye contact focus on the mechanics of eye contact
itself or ways to use eye contact to be more appealing. I will touch on what I have
found to be most effective, but before I do I want to talk about what I have found
to be the most essential and most foundational element of eye contact.
Speaking from experience, I dont believe that people worry about their ability to
have good, attractive eye contact because they dont know the mechanics. My
belief is that the problem is that eye contact creates a feeling of anxiousness in the
aspiring pick-up artist (PUA) and as a result, they reflexively avert their eyes from
other people.
So what do I feel the key element is to good eye contact? I believe that element to
be: Thought.
What you think and how you think about it
Its been said countless times across all cultures throughout time that the eyes are
the window to the soul. I think a practical and effective way to interpret that is that
people can catch your vibe when they look into your eyes.
And I believe that your vibe is made from your thoughts and your beliefs. Not
what you do, not what you say, but what you think in the privacy of your own
mind.
If you are thinking fearful thoughts like the person looking at you is going to do
something bad, youre going to feel anxious when they look at you because youll
feel like their seeing that. Like they are seeing your insecurity.
Or if you think critical, judgmental or mean thoughts of other people, youll feel
like theyre catching you in the act of committing some minor crime against

them. Sure, your actions in the outer world may be very nice you may be polite,
considerate and do good things for people. But if youre judging people in your
head in a negative way as a default habit, eye contact will be tough.
Another common thought crime is being out only for yourself and looking at
someone in terms of how you can use them. Your eye contact may not necessarily
be bad (as in, you may not avert your eyes when someone looks at you), but you
will have the look of a predator or someone who is up to no good.
So Ive talked about thought habits that make eye contact hard or unsuccessful. But
what do I think is the successful way to think in order to have good, warm, sexy
eye contact?
Well, in terms of thinking, I make it a habit to think good thoughts of people
wherever I go and whomever they are. This takes discipline. It takes practice. I am
telling you this as a guy whos reformed my own thought habits and found it to be
quite effective in attracting the women I want.
When Im attracted to a woman, I breathe in her beauty through my eyes. When
I think about sex with her, I think about it as a giving act that is tremendously
pleasurable and liberating for her. Thinking of sex in that way (as if you are
dangling some delicious that she wants to take a bite of) will get you much further
than thinking of sex as a notch on your belt or as a masturbatory aid for you. Plus
your sex will most likely be better too.
Now that weve talked about eye contact and thought, now we can talk about some
mechanics of eye contact.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 38

Im a big fan of imitation. Whenever I watch a movie or TV show with a male


seducer type of character, I carefully study the actors facial expressions, especially
during scenes where hes seducing a woman. I think to myself, I am that. That is
how I look at women. That is my vibe with the women I desire.
Its been said by others that maintaining bedroom eyes is a great way to turn on a
woman youre talking to. What does this mean?
Bedroom eyes is where you keep your eyes and eye-lids relaxed. Youre not
darting your eyes all over the room, looking at everything in sight. Youre not
widening your eyes like two giant dinner-plates with an olive in the middle. Youre
looking at the woman, nice, calm and steady.
Another look I like to use with eye-contact is kind of a flirty smirk. When Im
chatting with a woman, conversationally pushing and pulling her, I will sometimes
squint my eyes a tiny bit and give her a smirk. The general vibe of the look is that
Im a bad boy and Im really clever and smooth. This is just a look I toss out
there when the interaction gets spicy That is, when she and I are bantering
back and forth about one thing or another and Im saying something slightly bold
or racy to her.
Another fun look I use while conversationally pushing and pulling with a woman is
what I call the youre suspect look. With this look, Im taking on the position
that she might be cool, but Im a little suspicious of her. Ill turn my head away
from her to the side and upward slightly with my eyes still on her, sort of to say, I
dont know about you Ill usually do this when she says something silly or
goofy or weird. Shell usually laugh and then hit me in a flirty way.

Generally speaking, I would say focus on your thoughts and eye contact will be
eye and natural for you. In fact, I would say focus exclusively on the thoughts you
have and avoid thinking about physical eye contact mechanics its a weird thing
to distract yourself with during a conversation.
Legends method for eye contact is much simpler, Just believe that youre good at
it.

Learning to Start Conversations

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 41

Introduction:
Starting a conversation can be as simple as walking up and saying Hi or we can get
really complicated talking about Pick-up Lines, many different types of Openers,
and Opening routines.
Then we have different classifications which are basically all about how much
interest your showing and what type of frame your coming from.
Legend:

The Goal: Opening


In this section, I am going to talk about openers and give you some examples. The
goal for this section is to get you familiar with openers and opening routines so that
you can go out and practice starting conversations with the sole goal of just starting
a conversation.
The purpose of an opener is just to create situational comfort, unless you go
direct (that is, open the conversation with a statement that directly communicates
your interest in the woman). When youre in a bar, you are just another random
person at the bar. You want to create a dialogue between you and a girl where she
is comfortable talking you. The point of openers is just to get a girl or the group
comfortable talking to you.

Edge:
A note on pick-up lines
A lot of guys think that the power in meeting women in bars is in the pick-up line
they use. I know this because men are constantly e-mailing us about it!
Yes, Legend and I have some stock lines that we open conversations with, but we
dont look at them like pick-up lines. We look at them as conversation starters
something to move us from not talking to the women into talking with them. Thats
it an opener should just be a quick 30-second pop just to get the ball rolling.
Pick-up lines are not my preference because I think theyre cheesy, theyre
contrived and worse, they are perceived to be the source of the mans
conversational power instead of the man himself.

Now I want to talk briefly about the different styles of opening and about opening
routines. Everything can work whether it is an Indirect opener or Direct opener.
Many people prefer different things and different situations call for different
approaches. Also some integral elements to approaching such as False Time
Constraints, Body Rocking, and Rooting

Types of Conversation starters and Openers


Situational
A situational opener can be used anywhere. This is where you comment on
something in the surrounding environment that you see. In that it is something
someone else is doing, something about the venue, or something that a girl was
wearing. These are extremely low risk and will almost never get bad reactions or
blowout.
Examples:
Talking about the weather
Talking about something you can see
Talking about something thats happening
Talking about random comments that you dont really pre-plan
Questions and Opinion Openers
Opinion openers are classic community openers such as Who lies more, Jealous
girlfriend, or Spells. The basis behind opinion openers is that you are just
asking a question. Theyre great and work well in a social bar and nightclub
situations. They are very useful for people just starting to work on their social
skills. When you have a good question you can make the conversation about it for
20 minutes. This is not ideal for solid game, but a great way to get started being
social.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 44

Examples:
There are many classic community openers. I suggest making your own based on
something women talk about or something you like.
Direct
A direct opener is a type of opener where you express interest in talking to the girl
immediately. These can vary widely from expressing interest in her clothing to
telling her that she is sexy and you wanted to come over to meet her. The more
interest you express, the more you instantly force her to make a decision whether
she wants to talk to you or not. This doesnt give you time to win her over, but the
upside is that if she complies you are already setting the framework for the
interaction. It is usually a good idea to be qualifying her immediately after direct
opener. Well talk about qualifying and screening in a future section.
Examples:
Hey, Im _______ I just had to come meet you.
You are adorable I just had to come meet you.
You sexy as fuck I just had to come meet you.

Screening and Qualification Openers

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 45

A screening or qualification opener is where you are seeing if she will live up to
your standards right off the opener. These are more of a type of direct opener, but
from a screening perspective.
Examples:
Who are you?
Are you guys fun?
False Time Constraint
A False Time constraint is a technique that gives the impression that you are about
to leave, so whoever you are starting a conversation with doesnt think that you
will hang around all night all night in the event that you are annoying or boring.
Verbal False Time Constraints
These can be used at any time during opener or whenever you need to convey the
fact that you were about to leave.
Example:
Real quick
I have to get back my friends
I only got a second
I have to go but
Nonverbal False Time Constraints

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 46

Body Rocking is a technique where you move in and out giving the impression that
you were about to leave. This can be done by taking steps or by just shifting your
weight from 1 foot to the other.
Rooting in Your Opener
This is the technique where you give a reason why youre asking the question. It
sometimes is necessary with opinion openers if your delivery is off or if they ever
ask you why you asking me this. It is a preemptive technique.

Example:
My buddies and I were having an argument and we need a female opinion to settle
it
My buddy had (some situation) happen to him; I want to get a womans
perspective
There are many different types of openers and different ways to start
conversations. In our monthly interview series I go in-depth and have created a
complete training on starting conversations. I reveal all my closely guarded secrets

Fear of Approaching Women.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 48

Legend:

Approach Anxiety
Approach anxiety really encompasses any fear that you may experience about
starting conversations with strangers. I believe this comes about from being
socially conditioned not to talk to strangers our entire lives.

Edge:
We Created Approach Anxiety
Lets look at some of the social conditioning that weve seen as men throughout
our lives. I live in America where media images of love, dating, sex and
relationships are abundant.

Think of how many commercials you see where the product makes the man sexy
whereas he was a dud before. Think of how many scenes youve witnessed in
movies where a guy approaches an attractive woman and she flips out and throws a
drink in his face like hes a flaming piece of shit. Think of how many TV shows
glorify the act of some woman rejecting the guy.

These are just images. Theyre not real. They were created by advertisers, screen
writers and actors to be interesting to watch.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 49

Still, I cant help but think that this has had a profound effect on guys in
mainstream America and the Western World at large. This is a cultural
phenomenon. There are other cultures and American subcultures where the idea of
a man having approach anxiety is just ludicrous.

What Im driving at is that those of us who experience approach anxiety created


the experience ourselves. It may have been active (by interpreting our own failures
in life in an unuseful way) or it may have been passive (through witnessing
countless media images of approaching women being painful and something to
fear).

Regardless, we create approach anxiety and we can deconstruct it, desensitize


ourselves to it and replace it with something that is helpful.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 50

Legend:
Overcoming Approach Anxiety
Permanently overcoming approach anxiety comes down to progressively
desensitizing ourselves to the approach. It will take a lot of work and many
approaches, but I believe we can get there just like we can conquer any fear.

Dealing with approach anxiety in the field is only accomplished by pushing


through the fear. Once we take action and start to approach it becomes much
easier. Using tactics like immediately approaching the first group you see when
you enter a venue and utilizing Mysterys 3 second rule (where you see the girl you
want and you immediately approach her, within 3 seconds) will help you
immensely with approach anxiety.

If you follow the rule of always being in set (that is, always being in a conversation
with people), even if youre only talking to guys, as long as you are talkative and
pushing forward youll avoid a lot of anxiety.

My simple advice: Act before you can think yourself out of taking action.
Hesitation kills motivation.

Bottom line the more that you practice and gain reference experiences, the easier it
will become.
Edge:
Getting Over Approach Anxiety through Visualization
I heard about a scientific study that was done once regarding visualization and
success. In the study, they split a gym class into 3 groups. Each of the 3 groups
practiced free-throws in basketball and the amount of successful throws in each
group was recorded.
Then, over the course of the month, they gave each group a different task. The first
group did nothing. The second group practiced free throws everyday for 10
minutes. The third group visualized throwing successful free throws for 10 minutes
(they only visualized; they never actually touched a basketball.)
After a month, the practitioners tested each groups ability to successfully shoot
free throws. The first group showed no improvement. The second group showed
significant improvement.
But the astounding finding of the study was that the third group improved just as
much as the second group at shooting successful free throws and they never
touched a basketball once during their 10 minutes of practice.

I am a strong advocate of daily visualization. I practice this myself I even chart


my daily practice of visualizations to record that I am indeed doing them every
day.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 52

When it comes to women, I visualize that when I talk to women they have big
smiles on their faces. Theyre excited to talk with me. Theyre attracted to me
hell; theyre even throwing themselves at me. And it works my abilities with
women increased tenfold when I began visualizing success on a consistent, daily
basis.
At the very least, I would encourage you to STOP practicing missing your free
throws. Speaking from experience, I can tell you that it is incredibly counterproductive to imagine things going badly before you approach women. If youre
not going to take on the practice of visualizing success, at least find a way to
interrupt and replace any habit you may having of anticipating failure.
I will add one final comment: This is NOT a replacement for taking action in the
real world. This is a supplement to help you improve your real world results. You
must be continuously and consistently talking to new women as often as possible
to make a marked improvement in your skills and abilities.
You need to get out and take real action if you ever want to be successful with
women. The best way to do it is to have me personally turn you into a fearless
approaching machine:

Group Theory and Set Logistics


Legend:
Group theory
When we are out gaming, there are different kinds of groups (sets) and each one
requires slightly different tactics for the best results. Remember, everything is just
a guideline and sometimes rules are meant to be broken.
In all groups you are going to have a girl that you want (target) and her friends (the
obstacles). I find it best to befriend and be nice to everyone until they give you a
reason not to be. If you are trying to game a girl in a group, youre going to have to
win over her friends.
Single girl (One Set or Lone Wolf)
The lone wolf is a single girl. This is very common during the day and rare at
night. From my experience, I suggest going direct because you do not have to
worry about disarming and befriending her friends. Her peer group is not standing
there and able to judge her, so she is free to act in any way she chooses. If you see
a single girl out at the bar, she is usually there for one thing, to get laid. Go
approach her now.
Two People (Two Set)
A group of two people is one of the more difficult sets because you will have to
keep them both occupied. If you leave one of them alone, they are likely to drag
the other one off. You can game them as a single set or enlist someone nearby to
occupy the obstacle.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 55

All Girls Group (Set)


This is very common and requires no special tactics. Just go talk to whomever.
Mixed group of boys and girls (Mixed Set)
When there are guys in the set it is sometimes necessary to approach the guy first.
It is usually necessary to befriend him and then he will give you his girls but not
always. You can just talk to the girl if the guy is not aggressive.
Seated Group
Opening a seated group can be difficult. The act of opening it isnt difficult but the
longer you are standing while everyone else is seated your value will drop
extremely quickly. Sit down as quickly as possible using a False time constraint as
you do.
Knowing exactly what to do out in the real world can sometimes is a challenge and
thats why I want to personally invite you. Yes you, I know this is an eBook but if
you are reading it then that means you want to change your life and a few years
ago I was just like you searching for the answer. If I had one tip to give myself
years ago it would be to get out into the real world and take action now. I
personally waited far to long wasting time reading and searching the internet. I
want you to achieve the results you want in your life now. I want to meet you and
share my insight to save you years of frustration. Come out and Ill let you in on

Chapter 8:

Staying in Conversation

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 57

Legend:
Staying in conversation
One of the first sticking points you may encounter is staying in conversation. Once
you learn to open you need to learn how to transition into starting a conversation.
The first major pitfall that some people experience is ejecting for no reason. This
may come about because you feel that you don't know what to say next or there
was an awkward silence. The more you force yourself to stand there "in set", the
more your brain will begin to come up with things to say. Even if they aren't so
good, the point is that you learn to deal with the social pressure.

Transitioning (Hooking the Conversation)

After opening, you want to get into a normal conversation and this is where you
reach the Hook point. For me hooking is all about that point where instead of
them wanting to leave, they want you to stay. This can be done in a number of
ways, but your goal is to make them want to talk to you.
You can set up a situation where they want to talk to you before you even open.
This is the most effective way to Hook the group or you can use one of the
techniques listed below.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 58

Stacking
Stacking is a technique where you stop talking about one thing and start talking
about a completely different thing. When you're talking in a bar there really is no
transition necessary. You can go from talking about the sky to talking about
apples; you don't need a reason to just talk. A technique known as stacking
forward is where you cut the thread (whenever you're talking about) and just start
talking about something else. This allows you to shift the conversation through
different topics rapidly till you hit something that the people you're talking to are
interested in and then they will hook.
Edge: Something to consider here is that this does not just apply to choice of
conversational topics. Sometimes what you choose as a topic doesn't really matter
as much as how you talk about it and what within that subject you choose to talk
about.
For example, once I was talking about something with a group of girls and the
conversation wasn't really going anywhere. At that time, the real problem was that
I was just moving my lips and there was no engagement or real interest behind
what I was saying. But then I just noticed something in the environment and
commented on it in a sarcastic way... it was at that moment that the girls busted up
laughing and the whole tone changed. Hooking the conversation didn't take place
in this instance because of a different topic, but because of a different energy.

Just something to keep in mind...


Legend:

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 59

Multiple Threading
Multiple threading is a form of conversation that we use with people who we are
familiar with. Think of it as stacking different things and weaving one into
another. When you're in the middle of one conversation topic or story you can cut
and move to a different one and cut and move to a different one, then when one
runs out you can change back to whatever one you want. This is a great technique
for quickly getting into conversation with a stranger and then all of a sudden, they
don't think of you as a stranger anymore.

Plowing
Plowing is a technique that is somewhat more aggressive. You will force your
conversation on people by cutting their conversational threads and talking over
them. I find it useful in loud fast-paced environments to quickly gain attention and
get people into your conversation. Some people prefer a more tactful way of
getting to the conversation. This is blunt, but it works very well if it fits your
personality.
Leading Back and Locking In
Being in a relaxed position; one where you are in the position of power is probably
the most important aspect of staying in conversation. If you can be leaning against
the bar or a wall and have the girls leaning into you, then it looks like they are
gaming you. As a result of this you will start to notice proximity (proximity is
other girls standing near/around you within a few feet.) Many times you will even
get approached by girls. This almost never happens when you are not locked in set
(again, that is having a girl or girls in a position where you are in a laid back
position and they are standing, talking to you as if they are gaming you). Basically

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 60

you want to look like you are the most relaxed. You should be the one sitting or
leaning back, not them. Go into set, open, and then move the set around so you
have the position of power. If you are in an uncomfortable position in relation to
the group, then your value will drop (that is, other women in the bar will view you
as some guy who's walking up to chicks and trying to talk to them like some
beggar). If you are in the position of power then your value will stay the same if
not rise. Probably rise.
Edge:
A couple thoughts on this. I have found my best conversations with strangers at
bars were when I was doing something in my life that I was passionate about.
Note: That doesn't necessarily even mean that I was talking about those things!! It
just means that what I was doing at that moment in my life was so captivating, so
compelling and so interesting to me that it really didn't matter whether or not I
talked to a woman nor had any success at all that night.
At the same time, it is tremendously helpful and important to have something (or
several things) in your life that you passionately enjoy and are excited about. For
some, that means working on a major work project. For some, that means just
loving life - REALLY loving it and enjoying it. Generally speaking, the guys that
do the best with women are the fun guys who really enjoy life. Movies and TV
might dictate that it's the "tough guy", the one who doesn't smile and is just an
asshole, but this isn't the case in real life. Have balls, but be happy.
Staying in conversation can be a huge challenge if you dont know what to say.

Chapter 9:

Getting the Number

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 63

Getting the phone number


Legend:
The next step is getting the number. A lot of guys wonder how to get a girl's
number or how to ask a girl for her phone number. Really, this one is short and
sweet - a lot of people complicate the entire getting a girl's number situation. If
you can start the conversation and get them interested in talking to you, you can
get the number almost every time. All you have to do is just ask for it.
At this point, don't think about flakes or how to deal with them. Right now, if you
are at the point where you are learning to get into conversations, you should ask for
the girl's number before you part ways, just so you get in the habit of asking them.
For so many pickup artists, this is a huge sticking point where they remain for six
months. They can open and start conversations, but they don't get numbers
because they just don't ask for the number.
All the number is... is a number. It just means she's open to the idea of talking to
you more right now. The best tip for exchanging numbers I can think of is make
sure she saves it in her phone. You never know if they will pick up or not. I've
had girls that I've made out and talked for hours with not pick up the phone. On
the flip side I've had girls that I talked to for a minute pick up the phone. You will
never know unless you try calling. At this point, get into the habit of doing it
with everyone. Get their number, just ask for it. If they don't want to give it to
you for some reason then fluff talk some more or more make them laugh some
more or connect little more ask again and you'll get it without failure.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 64

Edge:
I completely agree with Legend: Getting numbers is easy and over-thinking about
it is a trap. Avoid that trap.
One thing to remember is that you NEVER know. Don't assume you do. Don't
assume you know whether or not she'll give you a number. Don't assume she will
or will not pick up. Don't assume anything.
Instead, just go for it. You always win: you'll either get a great experience or you
may end up getting laid or starting a great relationship. You never know.
During the initial phase of learning to meet women, I always asked for their
number just to get into the habit. This was a great and very useful practice for me.
However, these days I do things differently now that I am used to asking for
numbers and completely comfortable with it.
These days, I assume the follow-up. What does this mean? Well, once I've talked
to a woman for more than 5 minutes, I'm going to start tossing out imaginary
things that we're going to do when we hang out. If I happened to mention a
carnival and she said, "I love the carnival!" I might respond with something like,
"You know what? We totally should go to the carnival together," and then I'll
follow it up with some really silly playful push like, "oh wait, what am I talking
about? You're weird, I don't even like you." (I would say something like this with
a big, playful smile on my face.)
Over the next few minutes, I would just talk with her and imply that we have
plans... Or just explicitly make plans. Depending on the girl and situation,
sometimes I'll use direct game and sometimes I'll use indirect game (my criteria for

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 65

what I'll use is a different discussion for a different time). All in all, the basic rule
is that I will set up the date and make her feel that feeling of "of course we'll hang
out!" before I ask for the number.
One great tip someone mentioned (I can't remember who or I would give credit)
- he said to give the girl some kind of playful nickname during your conversation.
That way, you can use it when you call her and re-establish the memories and
feelings she had with you during the first conversation. In NLP terms, one might
call that a conversational anchor.

Creating A Connection

P a g e | 67

Creating Rapport, Deep Comfort and Wide Rapport


Legend:

What to talk about once you hook


Once you're reaching a point where a girl wants you to stay and talk, I assume
attraction and begin to connect with her. The point of forming a connection is
really to figure out some commonalities and things that you can do together to set
up a future date. Some people argue that they want to talk about crazy deep
subjects but for now I would suggest that you just get used to talking about what
each of you do for work, what you guys do for fun, and if you want to get into it
really what you're passionate about.
Edge:

I would say that conversations in clubs should really focus more on vibe than
subject matter. In other words, DEFINITELY don't try to be deep or profound keep it fun, light and engaging, but not deep.
I very much enjoy having deep, profound conversations about different subjects.
But I can guarantee that even if you manage to get a girl engaged into a deep
conversation with you, she will run off the moment she sees something shinylooking and fun (metaphorically speaking). Women do not go to clubs to think.
They go there to feel.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 68

Legend:
Creating rapport and connection also known as building comfort
In the seduction community, there are two types of rapport:

Wide rapport

Getting wide rapport would consist of talking about any number of subjects and
keeping it light / surface-level as you talk about a ton of things. You talk about
your job, talk about her job, her about pets, talk about what you like to do for fun...
really anything. The principle behind wide rapport is that you both get to know a
little bit about everything in each others lives.
I suggest get to know a little bit about her then pick one topic and delve deeper into
it.

Deep rapport

Depending on the situation, I think deep rapport is a great way to feel a really
strong emotional connection. Think of deep rapport as deeply delving into one
specific topic that you're both interested in or that you yourself are interested in or
something that she is passionate about. If it's something that she is passionate
about and you can connect it to your life, great. I like to talk about what I do for
work and how I'm passionate about it and I like to talk about her passions. You're

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 69

really talking so that you can both feel that emotion together - then you know
you're on the right track.

Creating a connection

If you want to create a connection, it's all about going first. If you talk about
intimate details of your life, then she's going to talk about intimate details of her
life. It is great to run with what we like to do for fun and the passions in our lives
because everyone is excited about what they're really passionate about. The more
you can show your genuine excitement and enthusiasm for your life and how you
experience life, the more she'll feel it and get swept away by it. If you get her
really excited in your presence, she's going to connect that feeling with you. The
more you do it then the more of a connection you both will have with each other if
you are getting excited about the topic too.

There is no magical mystery - it's really all about just talking with each other, but
if you talk about subjects that you're excited about, she will get excited and she
will do the same. Think of the old hypnosis credo: You go first, if you go first she
will follow.

Going first is probably the most powerful tool in your arsenal. If you start getting
fired up talking about what you're passionate about then she will get fired up and

talk about things that she is passionate about. The same way if you go into a set
nervous, then you will make everyone nervous and uncomfortable. Emotional
states are contagious. Use this to your advantage. Talk about things that you love
and really feel them inside. She will start to do the same and then you will create a
connection.

Where you are now


A lot of the methods of vastly over complicate things. If you practice the first 10
steps you will be at a point where you can start practicing your phone game and
going on day two's. If you can open and hook the conversation to the point where
the girl wants to talk to you then you can get her number almost all the time.
Then, if you work on connecting on topics then you have all you need to give you
a solid start in cold approaching. With just those skills and repeated
approaching you should have girls to go on a dates with if you practice
enough.
If you are hitting a sticking point and not getting the results you want yet then
sometimes you need a professionals touch. I know since Ive been there before
learning game that I can quickly help you get to where you want to be.

Where are you Going


Over the next four articles, we are going to talk about what you'll need to really
progress from connecting with the girl to actually bedding the girl. Once we have
gone through these steps we will talk about more advanced aspects and techniques
that you can work into your cold approach game to drastically improve it. I think
it's great to keep things simple and small chunk your learning but once you have
the fundamentals down it's time to expand into the advanced section. Still there is
no point in worrying about building massive attraction or qualifying a girl if you
can't get her interested in having conversations with you. Stick to the basics until
you have them then expand.

Phone game and TXT message Game


Legend:

How to use the phone number


My perspective on using the phone number is to text her that same night or
immediately the next day. I like to throw a few texts back and forth and then
transition to the phone as soon as possible. I can't tell you how many numbers have
stalled out on me just because of not transitioning to talking on the phone quickly.
We all feel accomplished because we got the phone number, but it can come at a
price. Now that the feeling of accomplishment is there, it can actually prevent us
from calling to prevent us from possibly losing that feeling of validation by the fact
that now she might not pick up.
In reality a guy could've had a perfect cold approach and she just doesn't pick up
for some unknown reason. You have to get in the mindset that some things are just
out of your control and just because it's not working on the phone doesn't mean
you didn't do a good job before. This is a very difficult barrier to push through, but
phone numbers just mean they want to talk to you - use them as quickly as possible
to get the two of you back meeting in real life.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 77

Edge:

I think a lot of guys get carried away in worrying about phone rules and whatnot. I
have had a lot of success calling the girl when I feel like it because I don't put a ton
of stock on it either way. It doesn't really matter to me all that much if I don't get
this particular girl, this particular time. So for anyone concerned about the 3 day
rule or how long to wait before you call a woman you met, I would just say put
your focus on lightening up and not caring so much about results. Caring too
much about how something might turn out is a sure-fire way to lose...

Legend:
TXT message Game
My text message game really consists of sending a simple text of "do you speak
text?" then I will usually say something funny connecting what we talked about the
night before and move on to the phone.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 78

Edge:
When it comes to texts, I keep it simple, light and funny. I'll usually call her some
nickname and be a little playful, referencing something I talked to her earlier. It's a
great way to build up a one-on-one bond with you... even if it is just by texting
over a phone, she's still focusing entirely on your banter and that further bonds her
to you.

Legend:
Phone game and talking on the phone

The phone is a great comfort building location. Really, I want to just get on there
and get comfortable talking to each other like you're just old friends. Once you've
established that it's okay to call each other then it's much easier to meet up and
continue to talk to each other.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 79

Edge:
When it comes to phone game, I usually do a few things. First, typically before I
call them I will have already talked to them for a while and had some kind of
banter. I will probably have gotten a sense of her sense of humor and maybe even
come up with a nickname for her. When I make the call, I touch on those themes
again to kind of re-enliven the feelings she had when she was talking to me
originally. Then, once the conversation is at a high note, I will quickly say, "Hey, I
gotta go <for whatever reason>. Any big plans tomorrow?" or whenever I want to
plan the date... Then I'll just say that we're going to go somewhere and do
something and it will be an adventure... sometimes I'm vague, sometimes I'm
straight-up. And nearly all the time it's something I would have done anyway - I
can't tell you how many times I've brought a first-date to the supermarket.

All in all though, the quality of your phone conversations will only be as good as
the conversations you had with her prior to getting her on there... You have a little
more flexibility if your phone call is the first time she's ever heard your voice (like
if you meet a girl on the internet), but generally speaking you want your focus to
be on building up good feelings before the phone call. There is no phone game
that is going to save you if everything leading up to the phone call sucked.

To break it down simply, it's:


1) Call her
2) Get her laughing or enjoying the talk
3) Make the date

Dates and Day 2s

Legend:
Setting up the date / Day 2 / Day Two
For me setting up a day two (day 2) is very simple. I just asked them if they want
to go out to a bar or to go swimming or come over and watch some cool TV show.
The best way is to keep it simple and keep it either close to your apartment or close
to her apartment. If it's close she can go back and seal the deal. If your apartments
are far away, it complicates it and can be much harder.

Edge:
I always set up my dates near my house. For multiple reasons, a girl may like you
but may not want to take you back to her place even if she is insanely turned on by
you. Maybe she has judgmental roommates. Maybe she has pictures of her exboyfriend all over her room. Maybe she's just very private about her living space.

For that reason, I plan my dates to be very close to my place. In fact, once the date
begins, I'll "forget something" that I need to go up to my bedroom to get real
quick. I will bring the girl with me just so she gets a chance to be in my room once
before, then I grab what I need (usually I need to change my shoes) and we leave
right after it. I do not stick around - all I want is for her to have a first impression
so that when we come back later it feels like a place she's been before and is
therefore more comfortable for her.

What to do on the date

When I'm out with a girl it's all about just having fun and getting to know each
other. Slowly building up the sexual tension but mostly just talking about my
passions and where I'm going in my life. This is usually an extreme turn on for
them. I think a later article I will talk about how to have a plan where you're going
with your life. I think as men having a mission, is equivalent to a girl having fake
breasts.

Edge:
On a date, I have a general game plan. First, I have probably about 4 or 5 stories
that I've told countless times that showcase a characteristic or quality about me
without bragging or showing off. An example of this would be the time that I was
walking down the street and was threatened at knife-point to give up my wallet.
Not only did I refuse, but I also managed to escape a whole mob of the mugger's
buddies without even running or yelling for help. True story and it showcases that
I have balls and I don't take shit.

Other areas of my life that I talk about are my childhood, my passions, dreams and
aspirations, what I really want to accomplish in my life and also random
experiences I've had. If the date has been going well and she strikes me as the type

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 84

of girl I would want to take home, I will start talking about music and then I will
ask if she's ever heard such-and-such a song. When I find a song she's never heard,
I say, "Oh man, I have to play that song for you... it's so good... you have to hear
it."

At that point we'll go back to my place and listen to the song. Fact is, when it gets
to the point that she's come over to hear a song, it is my personal belief that she's
already made up her mind to hook up with me. Once we're in my room, it's a very
easy and smooth transition to making out and beyond. Feel free to check out my
Hook-up Playlist that I posted up here back in July or so...

Dealing with logistics


Logistics are key. You need a way to transfer from your current location back to
either your bed or her bed. The easier it is for you to go back to her apartment or
take her back to your apartment after hanging out somewhere, the easier it will be
to actually seal the deal.

When to touch
The sooner you start touching the better. When you open sets touch them lightly
with the back of your hand. Keep it light and don't escalate hard in front of her
friends until you have won them over.

Edge:
When it comes to Kino or touching, I think that the method has a lot to do with the
man himself. It's been said (and I agree) that if a guy is very masculine / manlylooking naturally and naturally appears dominate, he should not touch until she
touches him. If the guy is skinny or has a more gentle, kind or effeminate face, he
should touch as soon as possible.

Speaking from personal experience, I had a very young looking face through my
early twenties. Plus, I was very skinny. Back then, I could touch a woman early in
the interaction and it was fine. I noticed that after I started working out, putting on
muscle and just generally maturing in my facial structure, my previously wellreceived early touching came across to the woman differently - this time as overly
aggressive. The only thing that had changed about me was my appearance really.
My intent and demeanor was still the same.

slowly increasing touch from small things to increasingly larger things.

Indicators of Interest and Indicators of Disinterest


Legend:

What are Indicators of Interest


In the community there are a number of indicators of interest. These are specific
things that some pick-up artists believe are cues that the girl is into you. I will list
them here: (I dont follow these)

Smiling at you
Preening (tossing, twirling or combing her hair)
Exposing her neck
Positioning body facing towards you
Laughing at what you're saying
Touching you
Sucking your dick

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 93

Assuming its always on and why you shouldnt bother paying attention to
them

I believe that is a waste of time and that you shouldn't bother looking for indicators
of interest. There is only one indicator of interest that I think about. This is that if
the girl is talking to me then it is on. She's not walking way and she's talking to me,
it is because she wants me. Even if this is a false belief sometimes, if you believe
it, it will manifest itself. We take on so many beliefs that are sometimes negative,
instead let's take on beliefs that will help us.

Edge:
If shes still standing there, shes interested (or at least, interested enough.)
And you shouldnt be checking to see if shes interested, you should lead her to be
interested by holding a strong reality and accepting nothing less than having her
buy into it. I wrote up a story about why I specifically DO NOT look for
indicators of interest from women. Check it out here:

IOD's: Indicators of Disinterest

Indicators of disinterest are things that a girl will do to show disinterest. The
biggest set killer is an IOD of no response at all. Love and hate you can work
with. Indifference you can't. I would suggest if you are getting IOd's such as back
turns or people not paying attention to you that you work on talking louder and
talking about stuff you are interested in. If you are looking to calibrate then if you
receive an IOD you should respond with a IOD and then immediately DHV.

What you should be able to accomplish with what youve learned

Within the first 15 articles I believe that you have enough information if you
consistently practice it you can get a lot of girls. You may not get the girl every
time but if you're looking for a girlfriend it will happen with persistence. Dont
overwhelm yourself with tons techniques; focus on the first 15 parts until you get
good at it. I believe we all need a foundational social skill set before we can get to
the more advanced techniques. I've given you everything you need to get a
girlfriend already. Once you're comfortable with starting conversations with
strangers and connecting with them and getting her number you are more than
halfway there. We talked about dealing with the phone and dealing with dates.
Once you get that down, you throw an escalation and you are all done. The
following articles are going to really focus in on specific skills which will really
sky rocket your results but you need a basic skill of being able to have a
conversation with someone before you can implement them. I like to keep things
simple because if you try to do too much at once I feel that you will never get
anywhere.

Next lessons are more advanced and will give you a leg up but they are not
necessary to get laid or to get a girl friend

We are now going to move into the more advanced techniques. Apply them one by
one as you get good at them. The deeper you get the more complicated it can

become, but if this is a hobby that you wish to pursue as a hobby I recommend
learning everything. If you just want a girlfriend, then being social with strangers,
dealing with logistics and escalating is pretty much all you will need.

Avoiding and Dealing with Sticking Points

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 101

What are sticking points?

A sticking point is going to be any part of your game that repeatedly seems to not
be working. A lot of people just starting in game have a sticking point of opening.
Then they sometimes move on to the sticking point of transitioning. Sticking
points can appear in many different places in your game. Plateaus in game are also
a common occurrence. I see that many people in the community hit a certain skill
level and then they stop developing. This could be known as a plateau in game. I
think that plateaus and sticking points are basically the same. They have similar
symptoms in that you are not improving and getting better results. I think that the
same issue that help avoid sticking points and removing sticking points works
exactly the same with plateaus.

Dealing with Sticking points:

If you have gone out a lot or even if you are just starting to study pick-up I am sure
that some of you have hit small or large sticking points that are inhibiting your
game development. Breaking these sticking points and plateaus comes down to
first identifying what your problem is. If you don't know what the problem is you
can't fix it. For example if you are getting tons of flaky dates you may have a
sticking point with the congruence of your phone game verses your game when
you met her in the club or bar. Once you have identified the problem you have to
implement a strategy to solve it. Sticking points seem to develop because we are

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 102

doing something and even if its not working we have a habit of doing the same
thing over and over again without realizing it. To fix a sticking point you need to
try new things that you have never done before and keep trying new things until
you discover what works for you. Its all about pushing your comfort zone and
trying things that are unfamiliar. Test, test, and test some more. Once you discover
what works you can build on it and increase your results. Don't get stuck in the rut
of doing the same old same old.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 103

Avoiding sticking points:


Once you understand how sticking points are created then avoiding them is
relatively easy. The theory to avoid them is easy but always practicing in a way
that you won't encounter sticking points and plateaus is much harder. Avoiding
sticking points all comes down to pushing your comfort zone. If you are hitting
blocks in your development you probably aren't trying enough new things. If you
are always testing and trying new things while building on the things that actually
work then you will start to see your results sky rocket. If you are uncomfortable
when you are in set you are probably learning something. Push your edge and
consistently try new things and you will develop and move forward. Remember
what works and build on it. At the same time scrap what doesn't work and always
try new things and you will always be evolving.
If you are stuck and you need help there is no substitute for personal coaching.
Imagine trying to learn to play basketball by reading a book. It would be almost
impossible. Instead you would want basketball lessons from Michael Jordan right?
You bet.

Chapter 18:

Framing and Creating Strong Frames

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 106

What are frames

Definition:

Framing is the basis to every aspect of your gamr. Framing is basically having the
right attitude or perspective while interacting with women, which is very
important. It is how you view the interaction and it is the underlying context to the
interaction. One of our strategies is going to be intentionally choosing the most
strategic viewpoint and attitude to use at different stages of the interaction.

In any communication, they are all communications, facial expressions and body
language that are neutral. Sometimes these things do have a motive or intention
and that motive or intention might be clear or ambiguous. Our minds have an urge
to give meaning to everything. Frames are powerful because they are the lens you
look through to determine the meaning of these elements of an interaction. Frames
tend to become self-fulfilling prophecies.

For example, someone who believes he is well-liked may interpret a rude comment
toward him as if it were a joke and laugh about it. His response is likeable and his
belief that he is well liked becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy he looks at life with
the belief that people like him and so he responds in a likeable way.
www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 107

Another person who believes he is disliked by everyone may interpret that same
rude comment as a cutting personal attack and fly into a fit of rage. His response
repels people and it too completes the self-fulfilling prophecy.

Same rude comment, two different interpretations because they were viewed
through two different lenses.

Frames are powerful because they cause people to interpret the many ambiguous
and neutral things that happen during an interaction. Most people do not hold
powerful frames, so they are likely to go along with any strong frame presented to
them if their actions are ambiguous. The result is that by holding useful, powerful
frames that serve us in an interaction, women are likely to go right along with
them.

Put differently if we know how to create self-fulfilling prophecies, we should


create positive self-fulfilling prophecies.
A frame is a focus or direction that provides an underlying basis for any thoughts
and actions during the interaction. A frame will set the underlying meanings of the
communication as well as any actions that result from it. The frame will provide an
overall focus and a direction of the interaction.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 108

Frames are not really existent in reality; they are not written or spoken. They only
exist inside the thoughts of the people in the interaction. Everything is interpreted
through them.
Most of the time when two peoples frames are not aligned, the stronger frame is
dominant and overpowers the weaker one. A woman may or may not buy into your
frame, but even if she doesnt you will convey that youre unwilling to buy into
hers.

Good frames to set

Talking to strangers is normal


Everyone likes you and responds well to you
Girls are attracted to you
Girls always try to sleep with you
Girls are always chasing you

Making people fall into your frames

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 109

Whoever has the stronger frame always prevails. If you condition yourself to
believe unequivocally in your frame then you will always maintain it.

Chapter 19:

Qualification and Eliciting Values

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 111

What is qualification?
Qualification is a mechanism that will allow you to do two things. The first is that
it will verbally set up a screening frame where you can show that you have
standards that you want a girl to live up to. This will begin to create a frame where
you are challenging the girl and she has to live up to your expectations. It will
build investment and compliance on her part through screening questions you ask.

The second use of qualification is to test for compliance. Using screening


questions you can easily see how invested a girl is in you by how much she will
comply with your qualification. If you qualify a girl on something simple like 'can
you cook' and she doesn't have enough attraction to answer you then you know you
need to run more attraction. If you try to move her or try to qualify her on what
her passions are and she wont answer you then you know you need more
attraction. Now youre not in a rapport stage yet if she wont answer and you need
more attraction. If you try to sexually qualify her and she won't comply, you know
you need more comfort and rapport or attraction before she will comply with your
sexual screening. If she is complying with your sexual screening then you know
you can move directly to a close.

Using qualification to figure out how much compliance you have is the best way to
quickly move forward in the set.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 112

Using qualification

I think its extremely important to start using qualification very early in any
interaction. Start off simple using simple situational qualifiers to see if you have
enough value so you can start building compliance. There are many community
classics that are simple things like:

Can you cook?


Are you adventurous?
Are you spontaneous?
Are you fun?
Are you cool?

The point of these is to begin your qualification and start to build compliance. If
she won't answer simple yes or no questions you need more attraction (Make her
laugh a few times). Once she complies with simple qualification questions then
you can try for the ones that require more investment. These are more building
rapport or getting to know each other type of qualifications:

What do you for fun?


www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 113

What do you have going for yourself?


Tell me your 3 best qualities?
What are you passionate about?

These require more investment on her part and if she won't answer these you know
you are still in the attraction phase and not the comfort phase. Build more
attraction and then try to qualify her again. After you have built more compliance
and you know that she is attracted to you and she is becoming more invested in
you then you can sexually qualify her. This is more advanced because you really
want to deliver sexual qualifiers well which I will go over in its own extensive
future article. They are more necessary when you are trying to pull a girl for a snl
but not necessary to get dates and a girlfriend.

Eliciting Values

What is Eliciting Values?

Eliciting a persons values originates from NLP and Speed Seduction. Basically
what you are trying to accomplish is to find out what is important to a person and

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 114

feed it back to them. Basically find out what really makes them tick and then you
can connect with them by showing them that you have whatever quality they look
for.

How to Elicit Values

You can Elicit values in many ways but I like to keep it simple and talk to girls by
starting off slowly finding out what they like to do and then transitioning into what
they are really passionate about in their lives. Once you do that you can connect
on their feelings surrounding whatever topic you are talking about. The classic
way to do this is:
- Figure out her favorite activity
-Feed the activity back to her and figure out what emotions she is getting from it.
(If she likes helping others then its the feeling that she gets from helping others
that you want to connect with her on.)

-What are the emotions she experiences during the activity?

-Connect with her on those emotions. If her purpose in life is to shop then connect
with the feelings she gets from it.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 115

Connection using Her Values

The real power with eliciting her values is that once you know what she is really
about and after you find that out you can tailor what you talk about and any
activities you plan together biased on it. This will allow you to really stand tall
above any competition. You know what she wants and what she values so you can
fill in the blanks and be her dream man. If you so choose to.
If you really want to ramp up attraction to the point where girls chase you around
and keep calling you for months then you need to get this skill internalized. Check

Chapter 20:

Attraction and Attraction Switches

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 117

What is attraction?

Think about what attraction really is. We are all trying to create attraction in other
people but how many of us have actually taken the time to really figure out what
attraction is. Is it a feeling? Is it value?

For me I think attraction as investment. The more we invest ourselves into


something the more we want it. It can almost be like desperation. Think about
your last long relationship at first it was great and slowly it may have gotten
worse. The longer you were in the relationship the more committed you felt. You
spent so much time and energy in the relationship that even when things were bad
you didn't want to walk away because you had invested so much time into it.

Think about it a different way. Have you ever won a scratch ticket or been given a
bunch of money. Say you won $500 dollars in a raffle. Would you blow it on
something expensive like a new TV or a night on the town? Sure, many of us
would but at the same time every week maybe you earn $500 dollars working 40
hours a week and you don't blow it. You had to work hard for it. You invested
your time into making that money and then you feel invested and don't want to
spend it as frivolously.

P a g e | 118

I think of attraction the same way. The more you make someone invest into an
interaction, the more they invest their energy and time into you the more 'attracted'
they become. The more invested they become and the more pull you have.
Attraction is also a feeling but powerful attraction I bias on investment.

Attractive characteristics
Humor
Social intelligence
Being Dominant and Leading
***FUN***
There are many more but I think these are the most important and its better to be
really good at one then mediocre at a lot.

Assuming Attraction

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 119

Many PUA's worry about IOI's and are constantly thinking if a girl likes them or
not. I really believe that you should just assume attraction and push forward unless
its not working. That way you can look at what youre doing and modify it
accordingly. Having the belief that she is attracted and its always on, even if its
wrong, will help us get results much faster and more often than looking for
attraction and trying to force it.

Attraction switches

When we talk about attraction switches we are getting very technical but if you
really want to get into pick-up as a hobby and want to get advanced then I think its
important to look at them. The purpose of attraction switches is to use them to
your advantage by demonstrating them to the girl your interested in. This can be
done by literally demonstrating them or embedding them into your stories.
Anything that you can demonstrate in real time will be much more believable and
powerful compared to embedding them into stories.

There are many different switches and traits that make a man attractive. We could
debate specifics all day but I think these are the major important ones:
( All credit to these goes to Mystery)
www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 120

Leader of Men

Being the leader of other men is a hugely attractive trait. This can be embedded
through storytelling and demonstrated by how people react to you. Think of the
old community idea of being the alpha man. Being the center of attention would
also fall into this category as well as being able to hold court. Lead the men and the
women will follow.

Protector of loved ones

This attraction switch would mostly have to be embedded but it is extremely


powerful when demonstarted. Many girls want a strong man to take care of them
and stand up for them at times weather they will admit it or not. If you ever protect
a girl when some guy is getting violent with her she will never forget it. Being the
protector carries a powerful effect. Use it wisely.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 121

Pre-selection

Pre-selection is scientifically proven. Women want what other women have. This
switch can be embedded through storytelling and it can easily be demonstrated. If
you have women with you or if you can actively get women to give you IOI's and
have your target see it happen then she will become more attractive. Social proof
through pre-selection is extremely powerful.

The willingness to walk away


Demonstrating that you are non - needy and that you have options is very
powerful. Everyone wants what they can't have. You must be willing to lose the
girl to get the girl. If you can demonstrate in front of the target that other girls
want you and that you will walk if she doesn't live up to your standards then she
will become more attracted.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 122

Social Intelligence
Being socially intelligent is a necessity. This is something that you will
demonstrate in front of the girls you talk to. Social intelligence would include
humor and just being aware of whats going on. This is a skill you will learn
through practice. The more you interact with people the better you will get.
The willingness to emote
When talking about the willingness to emote Mystery talks about that it really
means to show that you have healthy emotions. Putting it in simple terms,
showing that you are not crazy and your brain works right. DO this by showing
that you care and that your brain functions normally.

Chapter 21:

Value as a concept

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 124

Demonstrating Higher Value (DHV) And Demonstrating


Lower Value (DLV)
What is higher value as a concept?

Being Higher Value then other people and talking about higher value as well as
demonstrating it does work well but I do not really agree with the classic
community way of doing it. Sure you can always try to be cooler than everyone
else but that in itself is kind of reactive. Some of you will not agree with me but
everyone has their own way of doing things.

How to use it?

Instead I focus on things that I naturally love talking about and doing. My
passions! I let my emotions demonstrate value for me instead of worry about
logically demonstrating it through gimmicky stuff. Logically demonstrating value
sure does work but women are emotional so there is no need to logically
demonstrate value. Read in the next chapter about story telling for more
information.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 125

Embedding Attraction switches in stories

I would encourage everyone to embed attraction switches into their stories if they
want to get really technical about everything. They are not the end all be all for
attraction but they definitely work. They are listed in Part 20. You can write your
stories out and slightly modify them to follow the attraction switches. Eventually
with practice you will start to naturally tell stories with attractions switches
embedded.

Chapter 22:

Story Telling

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 127

What are good stories?

The key to storytelling is that it is not in the words you say but in the emotion that
you put behind the words. No matter how exciting or how drab the factual story
may be if you don't put enthusiasm and excitement into the story it won't work
well. You can talk about the silliest or on paper what would be the most boring
things provided you get excited about them. The real key is just getting excited
and really fired up about whatever you are talking about. Enthusiasm is contagious
use it to your advantage.

Writing good stories

There are going to be certain aspects of your life that you always will talk about
from time to time. I suggest coming up with good stories that help you convey
your personality and who you are. Things such as what you do for fun or what you
do for work. Stories about your passions and ambitions in life or just some funny
stories are great. I think its important to write out your stories and have a rough
idea of what you are going to tell people when the topic comes up. Have them
ready to go, not it a way where you will recite them word for word but where you
can have the basic idea's in place so that you can naturally and charismatically tell
your story every time.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 128

The Art of Story Telling

Telling a good story is really like a performance. I really want to hammer home
the point that it is all about the emotion you put behind your words. Get involved
and excited and you will naturally lead whoever you are talking to on a short
adventure. If you get excited it is all you need to make anything a good story.
Story telling is the most important skill to master when it comes to being
successful with women. In the Inside Interview Series Eric and I go let you in on
all the secrets we learned by studying natural master story tellers. Implement these
and women will be begging for you to talk to them.

Chapter 23:

Teasing, Negs, False Disqualification

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 130

First and foremost this is an art. Let me make it really clear that in no way
shape or form should you be insulting girls. Although at the same time there is
going to be one out of five hundred that insulting will work for. Mystery says and
I fully agree that correct response for a NEG is laughter.
Teasing: Cocky Funny Negging
I am really going to classify every type of teasing, cocky funny, False
Disqualification, Breaking rapport, and neg into the same category. They are all
forms of breaking rapport.
Examples
You and I would never get along
You are bad news
Where is your off button?
Total troublemaker
The concept of Breaking Rapport (BR) and when to use it
You ever wonder why sometimes when you BR it works wonderfully and other
times it blows you completely out of set. Before you can ever break rapport with a
girl she must already be seeking rapport with you. If she is indifferent to you then
breaking rapport with her will do nothing. Love and hate you can work with while
indifference is the killer.
For me there are only 3 specific times when you want to BR.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 131

1. You must break rapport in every set in some way to establish attraction. Notice
this could be as simple as taking a step backward or as intense as going You are
such a bitch :P (I want to stress that you must have the calibration down and no
matter what you are doing you are only doing it right if she laughs afterward)
2. The second time is if she Breaks rapport with you. This could be in a form of a
shit test or in the form of non compliance. Here you have two options. Ignore the
bad behavior or you can punish the behavior by breaking rapport with her.
NOTICE when you break rapport in this situation you are countering her bad
behavior and you MUST follow up your Break in Rapport with a chance for her to
redeem herself.
Example:
Her: Any negative behavior.
PUA: Aww isnt that cute your such a troublemaker :P I bet you keep all the losers
at bay with that. (Give her a chance to redeem herself after you tease her)
3. Finally there are those girls who live and die to tease. Most girls only need a
little tiny bit but then there are the other ones, the ones that eat and breathe teasing.
You will get into battles with them and it is required to constantly break rapport
with them. My primary FB who I have been seeing for a year now constantly
battles with me even to this day. I love it because I naturally like the aggressive
teasing. Some girls do it and some dont. Go after the type that fits your
personality. Basically I am saying that sometimes Breaking Rapport hardcore
never ends and other times you only want to do it sparingly.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 132

The most important thing is that you need to know when to tease and when not to
tease. Sometimes you need to have it demonstrated in real life. Get to a boot camp
and learn the correct way so you stop blowing yourself out of conversations
needlessly.

Chapter 24:

How to create and use Push Pull

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 134

Legend:

The Push Pull Dynamic

When I am in an interaction I like to slot everything that I can possible say and do
into 2 categories. One element of the interaction is always either a Push or a Pull.
Basically where in the first instance you can say or do something that pushes
someone away from you and in the second instance you can say something or do
something that will pull a person toward you. As with anything these are two
polar opposites where a pull is on one end of the spectrum and push is on the other
end. Think Mr. Nice guy on one end and Mr. Dick head on the other end. With
any conversation I believe that a good balance is essential. You need to be able to
go to either end of the spectrum and pull it back with good calibration.

Push

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 135

Would be any comment or action in a pushing manor. As if you are pushing


someone away. For example any form of teasing or not fully answering someones
questions. Leaving a sort of mystery about yourself or doing a take away.
Basically anything that will get them working for you. This includes all forms of
breaking in rapport.

Pull

On the flip side pull would be giving value, complements, and creating rapport.
Think positive statements and things that bring people together. Smiles and
positive touching as well are pulls.

What this means

Basically you may know that going overboard on one side can lead to trouble.
Whether it is over negging or over complementing the girl you dont want to go to
one extreme. I think its good to mix things up and create a balance. Thinking
about everything in terms of either a push or a pull allows us to really balance out
an interaction. You can create attraction by varying things up and having the
woman always guessing. It is a great attraction tool.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 136

Push Pull Routines

These routines are snap one liners used to fluster women and really amping up
attraction. They are usually two extreme comments almost like flipping a light
switch. You can really combine two opposites and you will get the desired effect.

Example:

Your such a little brat I love you.


You are awesome we would never get along.
I hate you.. Come here (hug)
You are such a bitch.. I love you!
You are either the biggest creep or the coolest person I have ever met.

As you can see you can use pretty much anything. Experiment with quick
push pull lines to spike attraction.

Chapter 25:

Advanced Rapport, Comfort, and Connection

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 139

The key to creating a powerful connection is really making the other person feel it.
Not just talking about something but to really feel a powerful feeling inside of
them. This feeling of connection is a surefire way to create a powerful
connection. The old Speed Seduction rule of going first is extremely important
here when connecting with girls. If you want to have someone feel a powerful
connection with you then you need to connect and get excited about something for
yourself before they can get excited.

As I went out more and more, I noticed that the girls that I would connect
with the best where the ones where we ended up talking about things that
were really important to me. Things like friends, family, and my work. When it
came down to it I really was talking about my Passions in life. If you start talking
about things that really get you amped up and excited then whoever you are talking
to is going to get amped up and excited. Feelings are contagious. If you can create
amazing powerful good feelings in yourself then the girl that you are talking to will
catch those feelings and start feeling them. They will then associate the feelings
they are getting with you.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 140

Passions

I have found that to really get amped up and excited I need to talk about my
passions. What I love in life. What drives me and what excites me. When I talk
about starting my own business, working for myself, and perusing my dreams I
really light up. I basically go into state and my state is contagious. The girl I am
talking to gets excited because I am all excited. She associates that feeling with
me and we both talk about what excites us. Its like a snow ball effect.
If you connect on those powerful feelings that drive your life and your passions
then it doesn't matter what the specifics of it are. You passion could be computer
games and her passion could be shopping but if you connect on the feeling behind
the action then you can connect to completely different things.
Talk about your passions in life and get excited. Ask her about hers and get
excited together and you will automatically form a strong connection.
The secret to creating long lasting attraction is to get the girl to want to be part of your life. After
studying the boy band principle and applying it to social interactions I stumbled apon the most
powerful form of attraction imaginable. Something that puts all the current methods to shame
and has girls so powerfully attracted that it borders on them stalking you.
The Rising Star Attraction Method is something I teach only on Boot Camps. It is too powerful
to share via the internet. If you want to learn the method that has evolved attraction to the next
level then come to one of my boot camps and get the insider secret system:

Chapter 26:

Dealing with Guys and Amoging

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 142

Dealing with Mixed Sets

When encountering mixed sets the rule I like to follow is to treat the guys as UGs.
Basically treat them as girls you would never have sex with. The rule that I follow
is to befriend first always. You never know if it is just some guy hitting on her or
her best gay friend. Going in with an attitude of friendship first will help avoid
many problems. I highly recommend it.
With guys you can connect on all the logical boring same old guy stuff. Simple
logical questions and statements work great. Comments about their shirts, the
weather, sports, drinking, or the bar work great. I like to throw in comments about
my ex girlfriend to disarm them if I feel that they might think I am hitting on them.

Dealing with AMOGs

There are many fancy ways to amog guys and they work. You can gain attraction
from girls by tooling guys and covertly reframing stuff they say to make them look
like a tool. I do not recommend it. You can piss people off and sometimes it can
back fire.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 143

The best way to Amog

The best and most powerful way to amog anyone is to completely ignore them. By
completely ignoring them I mean as far as you are concerned they do not even
exist. For example I have been out where guys have grabbed me and where they
have pushed me and they continued to push me. If I give them 0 attention it will
stop. Literally no matter what they are doing if you act like whatever they are
doing whether it is talking or what not just act like you aren't even seeing it and
they will slink away. The best way to amog is completely ignore and then they can
do nothing.

Chapter 27:

Plowing an Advanced Look

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 145

What is Plowing

Plowing is a conversational technique of using brute force to get what you want. It
is basically talking over people and cutting them off so that you are constantly the
dominant and leading force in conversations. I am an aggressive person so I love
plowing. It may not be for you. In fact it may be counterproductive for you if it
doesnt fit your personality. I find it extremely useful to get into set in loud fast
paced clubby environments. There are two forms of plowing; normal plowing
and stacking plowing.

Plowing:
Normal plowing would be raising your voice over other people to get your point
out. This can also be done by cutting other peoples conversational threads to
stay on your own material or threads. This can be extremely useful when entering
a set to gain attention. Think of it as smashing around with a hammer to get your
point across. Sometimes it is necessary to get everyone's attention and to keep the
group on track.

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 146

Stacking and Plowing:


This is an extremely aggressive form of plowing which I use a lot when
hooking sets in an extremely loud fast paced club. I will talk over people and
continuously stacking different material until I get a reaction from the girls. If they
aren't responding to something that I am saying I will start talking about something
else. If that doesn't work I will start talking about something else and so on. This
is sometimes necessary to break into set.

Notice: These are aggressive. I advocate them a lot in my game where Edge
doesnt really plow. He uses finesse where I use a hammer.

Sometimes getting into conversations can be difficult. How would you like it if
100% of the times you started a conversation with a women that she would become
interested and the set would hook?
In the Insider Interview series I spend an entire month of the series giving you the
most powerful techniques I learned from studying under the greatest Pickup Artists
in the world on how to successfully get into a conversation almost every time.

Chapter 28:

Pulling Girls from the Club

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 148

Bouncing girls from the club and venue changing really comes down to three
basic things:
1. You need enough attraction and comfort built with her so she is comfortable
being with you. Its much easier to pull a grill from one club to another bar with
all her friends then to separate her. You need more comfort, attraction, and timing
to pull her away from her friends.
2. Over hype where ever you are going. No one wants to go to this place that is
just okay. Hype any aspect of the venue from its chars to it drinks. This goes for
your apartment too. Talk about the cool stuff that you want to show her. Very
simple.
3. Most importantly pulling and venue changing comes down to asking. If
you don't ask the girl if she wants to bounce its never going to happen. Take
action and ask. The more you do it the more you will realize when it is the right
time to ask. It comes naturally through practice.
If you are having trouble getting girls to leave with you out at bars, clubs, and infield and youve hit a wall with your progress then its time to come have the
professionals fix your problem.
I want to personally take you out to bars and get you to that next level where you
can pull almost any girl you want home. I want to wing with you:

Chapter 29:

Last minute resistance (LMR)

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 150

What is LMR
I couldnt write a Pick-up Guide without talking about LMR. Notice that NO
means no and when in doubt stop. But I also want to say that sometimes No means
not yet. In person there is a huge difference and its really easy to tell. If she is
moaning and saying I barely know you or its too soon and she is stopping you but
saying it passively. Then that means not yet. But if she is serious and says no that
means no.
How to avoid LMR
Over my years of getting better and better with the opposite sex I find that I dont
really like dealing with LMR and instead I want to completely avoid it by doing
two things. Sure with the right attitude you can plow through it and sometimes
you need too but I think its much better to avoid last minute resistance. I avoid it
by doing two things.
1. Comfort. The longer you spend with a girl the more comfortable she is with
you. The more places and situations you are in with her the more comfortable she
will be with you. Despite what the community says I believe you can be friends
with a girl for a long time and still escalate it to sex provided you are an attractive
male to begin with. Sure its nice to get there quickly but in my experience if you
consistently maintain attraction either automatically or consciously then you can
escalate it to sex after months of hanging out with her. Dont get me wrong I am
not saying wait when you can have sex but I am saying its not necessarily a race
to get there.
2. Not letting LMR exist. You can allow last minute resistance to not even exist
if you take it and instead of just escalating you can escalate while telling the girl
www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 151

that you are not going to have sex with her. If you are constantly telling a girl you
never sleep with girls so soon in a relationship but at the same time escalating hard
core while maintaining the fact that you will not sleep with her so soon you can get
all the way to having sex.
Basically you escalate all the way to almost sex and keep turning her on while
telling her that you will not sleep with her yet. You get her so turned on that she
will initiate the final push to sex.
Girls do this to guys all the time. Escalating and getting us turned on just to
say not yet. We go crazy Just flip the script!

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 152

How to deal with LMR


There are three ways that I deal with LMR.
1. Two steps forward and one step back. If I am getting heavy resistance when I
am escalating I go into a two steps forward one step back mode. If you take a look
at the Kino escalation ladder in the Kino chapter you can just simply follow a two
step forward one back. Linger on the step you went back to then try to push
forward again. Repeat until you get to where you want to go. It works.
2. The Freeze out. This is more of an extreme tactic. It works and I have done it
but it is a last ditch effort and if you dont do it correctly she will smell the reactive
nature of it. Basically if you have hit a brick wall when escalating you completely
stop and start doing something else.
Getting up and watching TV or checking your email will work. The girl will
become upset because you stopped stimulating her physically and we all love
stimulation. Then you play dumb!!! Oh I thought you didnt want to do anything
more so I am not doing anything more. Then you go back to escalating and if she
stops you then again completely stop and do something else. Repeat and you will
break through the barrier but this has to be done in a way where you are not getting
angry and she isnt thinking you are reacting to her. Best way to do it is almost
play dumb. If you ever get angry she will lose all her attraction for you.

3. More Time. Most people in the community wont say it but sometimes when
all else fails you just need to spend more time with the girl. NOTICE: Now is not
the time to freak out. You must maintain your cool. Instead of getting mad and

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 153

thinking she wont have sex with you think about how she is in your bed already so
its only a matter of time before you have sex. If it doesnt happen now it will
happen the next time. The thing that will screw you up is if you get angry. If you
get angry the girl will lose all attraction she had for you. Keep your cool and chill
and try the next morning.

Inner Game and Solidifying Confidence

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 155

The secret to good Inner game


The secret to getting amazing good inner game is that there is no secret. What
inner game comes down to for me is forming new beliefs inside your mind.
Beliefs such as having abundance with women and having true confidence in your
skill that you can get any woman you want. This only happens from going out
and practicing until you have enough experience that your internal thought patterns
change. There is no short cut.
Creating Long Lasting confidence
Everyone always asks how you do it. Its really quite simple but extremely time
consuming. You have to flood your subconscious with new experiences where
everything works with women. Think about it. If you have had bad experiences
for five, ten, or twenty years trying to figure women out then you have to un do all
of that internal conditioning. This takes time. The only way to really get good at
something and truly believe you are good at it is to practice and reinforce that you
are good. Once you have enough experiences it will click and you will see the
light. It is easy because its simple but it requires great commitment. You
wont get there over night but I promise if you stick with it eventually you will get
there.
A quick note from Nikki Eric is a master when it comes to inner game. He has
taught me everything I know so if you need help figuring out your inner game then
you need to get an Inner Game Diagnostic. Think of it as a prescription to solve all
your inner game issues. Send Eric and email at admin@pickupevolution.com and
ask about an Inner Game Diagnostic

Chapter 31:

Getting Good

www.pickupevolution.com/catalog/

P a g e | 157

The trick to getting really amazingly good is to always practice the basics. The
biggest pit fall most people will run into is when they are following the steps and
taking action and then they start to get results. They start getting decent results and
then they think they dont need to follow the stuff anymore. Your brain will tell
you that you dont need all the tactics, techniques, and it will tell you that you
dont need to take action anymore. It will trick you and you will coast on the
decent results you are already getting.
You coast on the momentum for a while and then revert back to your old self
before you have done anything long enough to fully integrate it.
To truly get good and maintain you have to do something for years. I know you
dont want to hear it but I really think it takes at least 4 years to learn something if
not a decade to become a true master. How bad do you want it?
If you stop you will become rusty but game is like muscle memory and with any
practice it will come right back really fast.
Go practice and get the girl of your dreams. Practice and get the social skills
so that you can keep her. If you ever have questions just email us at
