Lately I've
been starting to earn the reputation for being the dating coach who takes guys
from "good with women" to "great with women".
Sure, David D.
introduced me as that guy when I was on his "Interviews With Dating Gurus"
series nearly two years ago, but these days it's really starting to take hold.
In fact, just
last Thursday I did an interview where the host said exactly the same thing
when SHE introduced me to her audience.
Yes, I said "she".
And I'll tell
you, there's nothing I love better than to hear success stories from guys who
have raised the bar higher than they ever could have imagined
previously…perhaps even higher than they thought possible even two or three
months prior to getting in touch with us.
You can see one
such story on the blog right now.
So basically, I
wake up every morning amazingly psyched to go to work. As some of you who have e-mailed me or
talked to me or who are on Twitter already know, sometimes I don't HAVE to
"wake up" for work…I'm STILL up from YESTERDAY.
But here's the
painful part.
Some guys
believe I'm full of it.
They refuse to
believe (and I think "refuse" is the correct word here) that what I talk about
around here is EVEN POSSIBLE…AT ALL, let alone for THEM.
I would be
shocked and confused by this, except for one simple factor: Less than a decade ago I would have been
RIGHT THERE WITH THEM.
I used to think
that dating more than one woman at once was a ridiculous fantasy that was only
possible in the movies.
I thought that
women called all the shots, and men had to grovel for acceptance from them…only
to usually get "rejected".
And heck, after
my divorce I even started thinking all women were "crazy" and just wanted to
use guys.
It was only
after doing a LOT of research and "field testing" that I started to see results
that clearly indicated that what I heard about other guys succeeding with women
was NO JOKE.
I have to tell
you…THAT'S what compelled me to leave a perfectly good career as a regional
sales manager for a trendy IT company to start X & Y Communications.
It wasn't to
make hollow promises to desperate guys about how to "get laid quick".
Sure, I
understand how bad sexual frustration can feel. And I know how easy it would be to capitalize on helping guys who
have experienced zero success with women cure the immense personal pain that
goes along with that.
But you know
what?
If getting a
phone number equals "success", and simply having sex is the goal, then there
are HUNDREDS of places on the Internet that can hook you up.
But my vision
for you is MUCH, MUCH greater than that.
Sure, I hope
you are unwilling to "settle" for anything less than a wildly successful dating
life where you call all the shots, make all the decisions, and manage
relationships with women who absolutely adore you and would do ANYTHING for
you…ultimately culminating in meeting and permanently attracting the GREATEST
woman ever.
But before even
hoping you are unwilling to "settle", I hope you are even able to SEE IT'S
POSSIBLE to be "great" instead of just "good" with women.
Consider
this. Did you know that when I think
of my "typical" newsletter reader, I picture an educated, athletic, and
socially-talented guy with tons of potential?
And I picture him FED UP with hanging out with women who don't meet his
standards.
That's how I
see YOU.
And guess
what? Based on the vast majority of
e-mail I get, I think I pretty much understand my audience.
So here's my
challenge to you: Do YOU believe in
YOUR OWN SUCCESS as much as I DO?
Because it's
not just POSSIBLE. It's WITHIN YOUR
GRASP.
Emily is not a
paid actress. (Yes, I've actually heard
that assertion before).
And yes, things
go as well for us in real life as they do on our Web sites.
And yes, there
were other high quality women in my life before I met Emily.
And above all,
NO…I'm not smoking crack. I REALLY
think you can rise above simply "getting a girl…ANY girl" and seriously
accomplish your ULTIMATE vision of success with women.
But the think
is that some guys only have limited vision in that area.
Do you know
what my biggest challenge with guys on my Ten-Plus program is?
You may shake your head, but it's that they DISAPPEAR after four or six out of
ten planned 1-on-1 calls with me.
They aren't displeased. They don't want
their money back. They're just
OVERWHELMED.
They're getting
SOME success, and they're THRILLED with it.
But what I have
in mind for them is a more complete plan with an even happier ending. And I continually, it seems, have to remind
guys of that and help them see the opportunity for greater success than THEY
EVEN IMAGINE ahead.
It's gotten to
the point where I actually TELL GUYS about this phenomenon when they first get
started on a Ten-Plus program. They say
it'll never happen in their case, and it often still does.
Why?
Because ALMOST
NO GUY ON EARTH ever actually achieves the kind of success we talk about around
here. Therefore, it's hard to imagine
because almost everyone you've ever met can't relate to it.
And the one or two guys you've known along the way who can? When you heard them talk about the women in
their lives you probably thought they were…are you ready for this?…full of it.
Here's the most
mind-bending part of the story of all.
Despite the fact that almost all guys live their entire lives without
the success with women they would have liked to have had, it's JUST NOT AS HARD
AS YOU THINK to achieve it.
You may have
suspected that all along, in fact. And
I've just confirmed it for you.
It's just that
most of us are competitive creatures, and it's easier for us to DISMISS rumors
of success than to ACCEPT THE TRUTH and make it happen for ourselves.
Worse? Most of us are too proud to ask for
directions.
Or…we figure
out there's no "quick fix" and it might take some effort.
So we, like
most people in life, get lazy and stop right after we start.
Or we get too
squeamish and give up too quickly.
How many times
have you seen a guitar in the corner gathering dust? Welcome to exactly the concept I'm talking about.
Most of us
would love to be rock stars, but are content to play a video game that
simulates it instead.
Success with
women? Most of us are content to watch
porn instead of doing what it takes to meet a great woman.
And here it is: Porn stars aren't even
a fair simulation of what having a great woman is all about. And I think you know that already.
The valid truth
about human nature is this. We all want
THE PRIZE, but we don't often want to exert any energy or effort to GET IT.
Consider the
times where you've seen raffles or drawings featuring a cool prize for the winner. You want the prize. But as soon as you figure out you've got to
fill out some sort of form to be eligible, you pass.
Similarly, you
might like to win the Tour De France.
But after about ten minutes on Lance Armstrong's training program, you
might decide otherwise.
The higher you
aim, the higher the potential prize.
And the higher the prize, the more effort is involved.
But like I just
alluded to, success with women is one of the "prizes" in life that absolutely,
positively brings the MOST REWARD for even a very REASONABLE AMOUNT of effort.
And guys STILL
MISS THAT. They REFUSE to believe it.
Welcome to what
keeps me up at night.
What's it going
to take to get YOU to believe you can SUPER-ACHIEVE with women?
Was this article enough?
Can you cut
through your doubt and begin to BELIEVE that what you hear about elsewhere when
it comes to AMAZING SUCCESS with women is true?
Can you accept
a vision for YOURSELF that is as lofty as MINE is?
Can you look
WAY past getting a phone number as a definition of "success"?
I trust you
can. Because crazy or not, I BELIEVE
you can achieve.
If I can, YOU CAN. All it
really takes is a belief that you CAN understand women, that they CAN be
high-quality human beings, and that they DO want a high-quality "big four" man
like you in their lives as YOU want them in yours.
