This scene from the Matrix nicely summarizes the key to daygame, which means of course the key to life in general (depending on whether you want a life of freedom or not). Morpheus turns to Neo and with a knowing look says: “You have to let it all go, Neo: fear, doubt, disbelief. Free your…

n the light of the various scandals surrounding the “pickup” movement, the idea of a PUA is at an all-time negative currently. Whatever you think about Julien RSD, Dappa Laughs and how that ties into the recent neo-feminist movement and videos such as the new york cat calls, “PUA” seems to be a dirty word…

As much as I see the MRA and the feminazi movements as different sides of the same grubby coin (the coin’s name is the NO EMPATHY COIN) I think that the #YesAllWomen hashtag and other recent trends, have highlighted some cultural norms which are good to challenge. I like challenging cultural norms – that’s why…

  Take a look at the “PUA” forums and look how the “Outer Game” threads vastly outnumber the “Inner Game” discussions. This highlights the main sticking point with guys. Too much focus on what to do and how to do it, not enough on who to be.                …

Just a quick post, while replying to a student’s email, I came out with something that he said was a bit of a gem, so I share it here with you, I hope it might inspire someone, somewhere. It was in relation to failure: feeling like a failure, being afraid of failure… Go, fail, enjoy……

Techniques are great, techniques are necessary… blueprints are needed. You have to replace your old bullshit with something, and the new bullshit is pretty good… for a while… It will get you some results, and that’s no bad thing. But after a while, you may begin to realise something… This first hit me a few…

Most guys who get into this are intelligent. Really intelligent – analytical, educated – problem solvers. Crosswords, equations, Sudoku.  Indeed, in a society and culture which has an over-emphasis on the power of the neocortex in matters where it is a hindrance, they look to more thinking, more problem solving and using their mind to…

I’ll admit it. The title was to shock you. But this hyperbole does point to something… When I first discovered the Game way back in 2009 I was convinced it was the answer! And when I bought Mystery Method I was even more convinced – like a nut-job with a holy book – that it…

It’s always good to have slogans in life, to act as anchors for good states you’ve been in, and good experiences you’ve had, so I’ll share the few that I’ve had over the years, just in case it resonates with you! 1. Fuck it This was my first revelation, the act of abandoning analysing and…

I’ve just been watching this Ted Talk about introverts. Susan Cain rightly distinguishes introverts compared to being shy. One is a character type, another is a fear of social judgement. But this issue comes up a lot in daygame and anything else designed for the extrovert (at least on the face of it). This is…
