			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey man, </p>
<p>Are you going to join me at THE premier pickup event of the year? </p>
<p>On October 17-19, 2008 the greatest pickup artists and dating coaches in the world are going to descend on Los Angeles. And you should be there too! </p>
<p>This is an incredible opportunity to meet and hang out with all the TOP guys in the dating science community. And it&#039;s actually kind of funny, because this is the kind of thing we don&#039;t normally EVER do. </p>
<p>See, by sending this out, we&#039;re letting you know about an event that is hosted by a direct competitor. But we have enough confidence in what we teach to put our instructors up on the same stage as the other elite pickup artists and dating gurus from around the world, and to let you know about it. </p>
<p>Not only that, but the Super Conference deserves credit for inviting the best guys from around the world, regardless of where they come from. Not only Pickup 101, of course, but also Brad P, Sinn, Dr Paul, and more. To say nothing of the Mystery Method Corp / Love Systems guys who are hosting it, like Savoy, The Don, Cajun, and more. </p>
<p>AT this point you may be wondering&#8230; How come I don&#039;t see YOUR name on the list, Lance. </p>
<p>Hey, it&#039;s a good question, but I do have a pretty good answer. </p>
<p>Turns out the event is on the same day as my birthday. </p>
<p>Hey, I have NO problem hanging out with all of you during my birthday, but I did have a feeling a certain woman I&#039;m dating might have something already planned for me that weekend. </p>
<p>After all, last time we had an event to celebrate she &#039;borrowed&#039; a 60 foot sailboat from her boss, gathered a group of my best friends (some of whom are from out of town and I hadn&#039;t seen in over a year!) and took us on a private cruise to angel island. </p>
<p>Anyway I asked her how she would feel about celebrating down in LA and she got a little flustered. It was pretty clear she already had plans for me that she didn&#039;t want to share and based on her track record it&#039;s probably not something that easy to reschedule. </p>
<p>So, yeah, I&#039;m not sure exactly what&#039;s going down for me on that weekend, but I&#039;m pretty sure it would be a BAD IDEA for me to miss out on it. </p>
<p>So&#8230; to summarize. </p>
<p>IF you have a hottie planning a mystery birthday party for you on the particular weekend of the conference -in a DIFFERENT city than the conference - then I&#039;d suggest skipping this message, skipping the superconference, and getting back to your day. </p>
<p>For the rest of you&#8230; I know this is a bit last minute but if there&#039;s any way you can clear your schedule and make it to this event I would highly recommend it. </p>
<p>Why, you ask? </p>
<p>First of all our very own head instructor Daniel Johnson (of the Daniel Johnson show, as he likes to say) is going to be occupying a privileged spot at the Love Systems Superconference coming up in October. </p>
<p>And he&#039;s got a talk put together that is absolutely PACKED with brand new material on a topic we&#039;ve been working on a lot. </p>
<p>We call it &#039;Romantic Empathy&#039; and while it may sound a bit Opra-esque (yes, I DID just create a new word there) it has that power to have some serious real-life effects on your love life in no time flat. </p>
<p>You should also know that since Savoy and I go back about 4 years now, I&#039;m able to make you a great offer to attend the Superconference. Three offers really. And one of them involves The Playboy Mansion - so keep reading! </p>
<p>Here are some of the KILLER sessions at the Superconference: </p>
<p>* Social Circle Mastery<br />
* Advanced Attraction<br />
* Deep Comfort<br />
* Inner Game<br />
* Relationship Management and MLTRs<br />
* Callback Humor<br />
* Project Rockstar - How they changed their lives and how you can too!<br />
* Day Game<br />
* Body Language<br />
* LIVE EXERCISES: Teasing and Bantering - How to think on your feet!<br />
* LIVE EXERCISES: Physical Escalation - Touching gets results!<br />
* LIVE EXERCISES: Vocal Projection - Watch your results really take off!<br />
* LIVE EXERCISES: Body Language<br />
* LIVE EXERCISES: Approaching and Transitioning<br />
* And lots more&#8230; </p>
<p>I always see &#034;lots more&#034; at the end of lists and don&#039;t believe it - but here you have to. The Super Conference runs two simultaneous rooms - a &#034;main stage&#034; where Daniel and other top experts will be presenting on our areas of specialty, so you get the expert take on every subject, and a &#034;breakout room&#034; where these same instructors are running exercises training you on all aspects of your game. So there&#039;s a ton to choose from! </p>
<p>Still, I have to say the COOLEST thing about the event HAS to be&#8230; </p>
<p>Get ready for it. </p>
<p>The Playboy Mansion! </p>
<p>What else can I say? Platinum Level Superconference attendees will do their in- field work at The Playboy Mansion! And there may never be another chance like this again. Most of you already know Fox News has reported that October 31, 2008 will be the last of the wild nights Hef personally throws. </p>
<p>This is probably your last chance to party at The Playboy Mansion with the most beautiful women in the World! Are you going to take it? </p>
<p>Note: I heard the Platinum Level package is filling up FAST! If you want in on The Playboy Mansion get yourself registered NOW! </p>
<p>And, as a Superconference attendee you&#039;ll also have access to incredible new products and programs - stuff that ISN&#039;T available to the public yet. </p>
<p>Right now, they have three great packages for you to get the best Superconference experience! </p>
<p>Platinum Level - This incredible top level package includes a private meet and greet with Savoy and the other top Love Systems instructors, two incredible nights of in- field training in the incredible venues of Los Angeles, a full night of training and partying at The Playboy Mansion and full insider access to all the incredible sessions at the Superconference! </p>
<p>Gold Level - This is another top level package that includes the private meet and greet with Savoy and the other top Love Systems instructors, two incredible nights of in-field training in the incredible venues of Los Angeles and full insider access to all the incredible sessions at the Superconference! </p>
<p>Silver Level - This basic package is loaded with value and incredible learning opportunities! The Silver Level Package gives you full, 100% insider access to ALL the great Superconference seminars and sessions. </p>

<p>This Superconference is shaping up to be an absolutely INCREDIBLE, OFF THE CHARTS experience this time around. This is going to be an awesome, not to miss event and I really hope you can join Daniel and some of the greatest pickup artists IN THE WORLD for this incredible three day Superconference! </p>
<p>Talk soon, </p>
<p>Lance Mason </p>
<p>P.S. - Savoy is so sure you&#039;re going to be blown away by all the incredible value and talent packed into this Superconference that he told me to make you this offer: If, by the end of the first day, you&#039;re not absolutely psyched about EVERYTHING you&#039;ve learned at the Superconference, just let him know and he&#039;ll give you a FULL refund! </p>
<p>It&#039;s always good to know that someone stands behind their product. Learn more: </p>

<p>P.P.S. - Daniel Johnson WILL be available for one-on-one coaching during the nights and evenings of the event (Oct 17 - 19th) - INCLUDING a possible night of coaching inside the PLAYBOY MANSION. </p>
<p>Heck, I&#039;D pay for that. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There she is. </p>
<p>Sooo cute -  so stylish. </p>
<p>Got that certain sum-sumthin&#039; in her walk. Yeah, look at her walk&#8230; </p>
<p>Walk right on by, that is. </p>
<p>Wait a minute&#8230; </p>
<p>You weren&#039;t supposed to flirt with her, were you? </p>
<p>I mean, she was walking! </p>
<p>The truth is, you CAN stop a moving hottie dead in her tracks, and have her be GLAD you did it. </p>
<p>It&#039;s easier then you might think, but it does take some good intentions - and more then a little bit of commitment. </p>
<p>Here&#039;s how it works: </p>
<p>Guy see girl. Girl be moving. Guy want stop girl. </p>
<p>Guy stop girl. </p>
<p>Ugh. Words make head hurt. </p>
<p>Yes, it is that caveman simple. But only once you know the approach that gets her stopped, gets her interested, and gets her there with you. </p>
<p>You&#039;ve heard of Newton&#039;s 1st Law. A body in motion tends to stay in motion. </p>
<p>What Newton didn&#039;t say was that&#039;s even more true when the body in question is a smokin&#039; HOT body! </p>
<p>But there&#039;s more to this law. I know. I Googled it to be sure. </p>
<p>A body in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. </p>
<p>Guess what? You, mi compadre, are the &#034;unbalanced force.&#034; </p>
<p>Isn&#039;t that a great frickin&#039; phrase? Just think that to yourself the next time you are just having a blast and someone asks why you&#039;re having so much fun. </p>
<p>&#034;I&#039;m just an unbalanced force of nature, darlin&#039;!&#034; </p>
<p>OK, back to our physics lesson. </p>
<p>So you now know you can stop her. But how? </p>
<p>When you see a girl that attracts you, make meeting her the the priority of your day. Don&#039;t worry about how you are going to stop her, what your body language is like, or any details like that. </p>
<p>Don&#039;t be thrown by any excuses (she&#039;s on a cell phone, wearing an iPod, walking away down the street). Just make this real &#8212; stopping and talking to you for 30 seconds is the most important thing in her day. </p>
<p>You giving her a chance to meet a confident, sexy man is the most important thing in her day. And in yours. </p>
<p>All across the universe, women respond to decisiveness and confidence more than anything else &#8212; more than money, looks, fame, or nice cars. </p>
<p>(Yes, the whole universe. Don&#039;t believe me? Go watch some old Star Trek&#039;s and watch how Captain Kirk works his mojo on some green alien hotties. No one can resist his hunky body language, no matter what planet they&#039;re from!) </p>
<p>Ol J.T. Kirk knew the blood and guts of Physical Confidence, and you can learn to use your body to shout this like a fat woman yelling &#034;Help!&#034; in a house fire: </p>
<p>http://pickup101.com/physicalconfidence </p>
<p>If you move like a man on a mission, she will recognize the powerful attractive traits and respond. </p>
<p>Here&#039;s what happens when a student gets it right. </p>
<p>=== </p>
<p>Sam wanted to see if there was some circumstance where he simply COULDN&#039;T meet a girl, so he kept his eyes open while driving through town, hoping to catch a cutie in her car. A lovely girl in a BMW merged in front of him and turned left. He immediately snapped into &#034;Starsky and Hutch&#034; mode and took off after her, away from his destination. </p>
<p>She went two more streets, then stopped at the next red. He hit the hazard lights, pulled the e-brake, jumped out of his ride and ran up to her window. He motioned for her to roll it down, and when she did, he said, </p>
<p>&#034;Excuse me, I just had to tell you that you are the prettiest girl I&#039;ve seen all day, and there&#039;s a law that says I have to tell you that.&#034; </p>
<p>She smiled, and he continued, </p>
<p>&#034;Really, I have no choice. It&#039;s a federal law.&#034; </p>
<p>She introduced herself.  He smiled back, and they kept talking and flirting, right there in the street, as the red light turned green. </p>
<p>=== </p>
<p>Now comes your turn. </p>
<p>Here&#039;s your step-by-step how-to for stopping and dating girls on the move. </p>
<p>Get your pencils out. Ready? </p>
<p>If you&#039;re unsure how to stop her, just imagine the following. If your car was on fire, and you needed to stop someone to get help, how would you do it? </p>
<p>Your BODY knows this already. There&#039;s no trick to it. Just follow those instincts and experience. </p>
<p>You will have all sorts of questions and doubts and conditions running through your mind, and all sorts of reasons not to do it. </p>
<p>My personal favorite is &#034;I don&#039;t have the time right now.&#034; So make it simple for yourself. You are taking 30 seconds out of your day to see if this cutie is a good fit for you, no more, no less. You can always afford 30 seconds, right? </p>
<p>And you never know when the best opportunities are going to pass by, so you need to be ready all the time. </p>
<p>If you detect a little more agitation and fear rising up in your gullet than you can handle, try this little trick to get it done. </p>
<p>Let her move away from you. Wait just a second. If it&#039;s a store, let her go. If it&#039;s a street, let her keep walking. </p>
<p>Wait just long enough that you think you may have lost her, and then&#8230; </p>
<p>Chase. </p>
<p>Her. </p>
<p>Down. </p>
<p>Get it in your head that you are on a mission to find and meet this girl. Make her your Girl of the Day, the one you just have to meet no matter what the situation. </p>
<p>This is the kind of sh*t superheros do. </p>
<p>That&#039;s you. You should hear crazy theme music pumping as you pursue, knowing that no Dr. Doom, Lex Luthor or Loch Ness Monster can stop you. </p>
<p>The more you have to pursue, the more real it will feel when you finally catch up to her, and the more sincere and confident you will be when you catch up to her and say, </p>
<p>&#034;I know this is a bit random, but I had to meet you.&#034; </p>
<p>Now get out there, chase &#039;er down, and put a smile on some womens face. You may just put a big fat grin on your face in the process. </p>
<p>-Lance Mason </p>
<p>P.S. You CANNOT make this work without Physical Confidence. When you see your girl of the day moving past you, you have to stop her with your body. Know what to do with your body and get her attracted without even saying a word. </p>
<p>http://www.PickUp101.com/PhysicalConfidence </p>
<p>P.P.S. If your looking for a step-by-step breakdown of exactly how to start conversations with women under ANY set of circumstances then my Fearless First Impressions Take-Home Training was made with you in mind.  I break down all the fundamentals of starting conversations with women - body language, how to break the social &#039;bubble&#039; seamlessly, and how to project confidence with your voice.  I also show you how to handle all the different situations you will encounter such as what to do if she is sitting down, talking with friends, in a crowded situation - or just plain in a hurry. </p>

PickUp 101&#8230; for the first time ever&#8230; is going to Tokyo! (...)<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "We're Like Godzilla - Taking Over Tokyo!", url: "http://www.pickup101.com/blog/were-like-godzilla-taking-over-tokyo/" });</script>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes&#8230; That&#039;s right!</p>
<p>PickUp 101&#8230; for the first time ever&#8230; is going to Tokyo!</p>
<p>Our top instructors, <a href="http://daniel-the-lover.blogspot.com/2007/05/tale-of-romance-he-said-she-said.html" class="external">Daniel and Alexandra</a> won a free trip to Japan and decided to extend their stay there just for the chance to give a little something back to the men of Japan and help them get some hottie Japanese girls <img src='http://www.pickup101.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Daniel recently did an interview with the head of the Japan lair talking about the trip to Japan and a little about his story, and you&#039;ll want to take a look (whether you&#039;re in Japan or not).&nbsp; </p>
<p>[If you are anywhere near Japan - or if you just LOVE Japanese women, then save your spot now.&nbsp; There are limited spots available.&nbsp; You can sign up online, call our office, or just email Daniel@PickUp101.com]</p>
<p>Enjoy the interview ~</p>
<p><strong>Genki: Tell me a bit about yourself and why you&#039;re coming to Japan.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Daniel: </strong>Like a lot of guys, I had trouble figuring women out when I was growing up.&nbsp; I had girlfriends here and there, but I was never really satisfied, I was always messing up the relationships, and I really didn&#039;t feel like I had much choice over the whole thing.&nbsp; I&#039;ll spare you all the sob stories, but there were a lot of times when I would be trying SO hard to get a girl and be doing the completely WRONG thing to get her.&nbsp; It&#039;s kind of embarrassing to look back on it.</p>
<p>It all changed about 4 or 5 years ago when I got a hold of some David DeAngelo newsletters.&nbsp; If you imagine your worldview as the windshield of your car when your driving down the highway of life.&nbsp; Well&#8230; David DeAngelo was the crack in that windshield.&nbsp; And slowly but surely, the crack spread.&nbsp; I had realizations, breakthroughs and huge success!</p>
<p>But, it was tough.&nbsp; And probably the toughest thing about it was that I was living in South Korea at the time.&nbsp; I had one wingman from England - but he thought the whole idea of learning pickup was insane, so we wouldn&#039;t talk much about it, just go out together.&nbsp; I also met some local Korean guys who were somewhat of naturals, but still all they would say is &quot;c&#039;mon man&#8230; just do it!&quot;</p>
<p>I was pretty much alone in Korea.&nbsp; Learning on my own.&nbsp; With one exception, and that was the internet.&nbsp; I had so many great resources to study from, and forums to post on.&nbsp; (In fact, you can read all my old posts still on fastseduction.com).&nbsp; I learned a lot from the Japanese pickup guys at the time and a lot of other big name posters on those forums. </p>
<p>I got success fast.&nbsp; In Korea, I easily stood out of the crowd, and I used that to my advantage.&nbsp; Within a few weeks, I was dating multiple women (and before that it&#039;d been about a year and half since the last time I&#039;d gotten laid!)</p>
<p>And then the second hurdle came.&nbsp; I returned to the US. </p>
<p>All of a sudden, I was just another person.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t stand out anymore.&nbsp; All of the advantage of being a &quot;cool foreigner&quot; were gone.&nbsp;&nbsp; That&#039;s when the real work started.&nbsp; That&#039;s when I had to find how to express myself in powerful new ways, so that I could still be myself, but I would easily stand out as not just another guy. </p>
<p>I took a PickUp 101 workshop, and it took a few months of really practicing hard before I was back to the same skill level as when I had been living in Korea. </p>
<p>A few more months, I began as an assistant instructor, helping out at workshops.&nbsp; I continued down that path, putting my heart into every workshop, and by now I&#039;ve taught more than 50 workshops all over the world, from Australia, to London, to Washington DC.</p>
<p>I&#039;ve come to have phenomenal success, and the confidence to know that I can (and have) picked up women all over the world.&nbsp; And all of it without every really having to change who I am or try to be someone that I&#039;m not.&nbsp; In my book, that&#039;s important.&nbsp; I never would&#039;ve done something if I thought it would turn me into someone else.</p>
<p>The whole time, I&#039;ve continued to remember my roots.&nbsp; I remember those days of overnight success in Korea.&nbsp; I remember months of loneliness replaced by a different girl in my bed every weekend.&nbsp; Yeah&#8230; the memories are fond.</p>
<p>And, I&#039;ve always wanted to give back.&nbsp; I&#039;ve always wanted to help other men who were like me, in Asia, trying to figure out these crazy Asian girls with their Asian ways.</p>
<p>So, I joined the Tokyo lair (now the Japan lair).&nbsp; And, I think there were 11 members on the board at the time.&nbsp; I decided to take those 11 members into my care and do whatever I could to help them succeed, and started posting regularly to help them get success.&nbsp; Within, a few months, the lair began taking off.&nbsp; I invited our most respected Genki to join and to my great pleasure he took the lair to a whole new level.</p>
<p>There was no Korea lair then, but after seeing the success of the Japan lair, I was inspired.&nbsp; I felt my job was done, I had helped build a community for those who previously didn&#039;t have one.&nbsp; At least for the men of Japan, they didn&#039;t have to struggle like I did anymore, and that thrilled me.&nbsp; So, I decided to give it a shot and I started a Korea lair.</p>
<p>I was the first member of the Korea lair.&nbsp; And, for a few months, I was the only member.&nbsp; <img src='http://www.pickup101.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But, soon there were 3 or 4 guys on there and I&#039;d give them regular coaching (the kind of coaching I would&#039;ve dreamed of for myself).&nbsp; I was happy to see them succeeding.</p>
<p>Again, I invited a rockstar (BlueM) to join that lair, and he saw how it could go to the next level.&nbsp; So, he took it and made it into the now very popular Korea lair.&nbsp; I was stoked!</p>
<p>As I&#039;m sure you could guess&#8230; helping to build an online community in Asia has been great.&nbsp; But, my real dream has always been to teach in-person!</p>
<p>Not a day has gone by since I left, that I haven&#039;t wanted to go back to Asia and do a workshop.&nbsp; Face to face.&nbsp; Helping guys like me.</p>
<p>Luck was on my side! </p>
<p>It just so happened that I entered an online karaoke contest with my girlfriend and WON!&nbsp; The grand prize - a 9 day trip to Japan!</p>
<p>[You can check out the video here:&nbsp; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMriw9bxsgI]</p>
<p>So, that&#039;s the story of how we ended up coming to Japan.&nbsp; We&#039;ve extended our plane tickets to stay an extra weekend and make my dream come true:&nbsp; Workshop Tokyo! </p>
<p>Yes, and that&#039;s right.&nbsp; I now have an awesome girlfriend (for over 1 year now), who helps me teach.&nbsp; I&#039;ve never seen any other women give the type of caring, honest, and lazer sharp advice as her while still understanding the &quot;male perspective.&quot; </p>
<p>Overall, it&#039;s been a crazy ride.&nbsp; And, funny to think about, because I never would&#039;ve thought I&#039;d be a &quot;pickup instructor.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; But, everyday I love it, and I&#039;m not ready to stop yet.</p>
<p>
<strong>Genki: What&#039;s your experience in Japan, and why will your approach work here?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Daniel: </strong>This will be my first visit to Japan, and I&#039;m excited!&nbsp; I&#039;ve been all over Asia (Korea, China, Thailand, Vietnam&#8230;)&nbsp; and enjoy each place I visit. </p>
<p>I&#039;ve probably dated girls from every country in all of asia at some point or another.&nbsp; I&#039;ve dated plenty of Japanese girls in the US, and in Australia.&nbsp; And I love how the women of each country each have their own individual flavor.&nbsp; </p>
<p>I find Korean women have a little toughness to them, and their so proper.&nbsp; Thai women are so used to the sex industry that often the thrill is lost&#8230; but if you find one with a little fire in her, she&#039;ll keep you on your toes for sure.&nbsp; Taiwanese women have this funny sort of superstitious side to them, always telling me what their fortune-teller said about our relationship.&nbsp; And Japanese women&#8230; ah, yes&#8230; Japanese women have got to be the most delicate of them all.&nbsp; Like little anime characters each one of them.&nbsp; But, of course, I don&#039;t have to tell you that.</p>
<p>In fact, it&#039;s a shame here in the US, because I feel like a lot of the best things I have to teach are the things I learned in Korea.&nbsp; When I&#039;m teaching US workshops, I don&#039;t get to talk about things like what to do when you don&#039;t speak her language.&nbsp; People here aren&#039;t as interested (though I have met a few).&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ve dreamed of an opportunity like this to share how I&#039;ve consistently created attraction with Japanese, Korean girls, etc&#8230; just through the glance of my eyes, or a well-timed smile, or killer body language. </p>
<p>Plus, I want to give the things that I didn&#039;t learn until after I left Korea (but I wished I had known while I was there).&nbsp; The truth is that with all of my success in Korea, I was probably still not even at 10% of my real potential. </p>
<p>Really, my big fear has actually been that it would work too well in Japan, and that if I ever went there I might not ever make it home. </p>
<p><strong>Genki: Why should we take your bootcamp/workshop?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Daniel: </strong>I know that there&#039;s a lot of other workshops out there, and a lot of great guys teaching workshops and doing wonderful things.&nbsp; I would&#039;ve loved to have those kinds of opportunities when I was learning.</p>
<p>But, something that most people don&#039;t realize until they start teaching pickup is that it&#039;s actually easier to pickup and harder to teach it.&nbsp; The real challenge is how to make a change in a guys life so that he walks away a new man.&nbsp; How to make him have more than just a good weekend with some cool guys.&nbsp; And, that&#039;s always been my goal.</p>
<p>Our workshops are specially designed with exercises that we&#039;ve been refining over hundreds of workshops.&nbsp; Exercises that are designed to create real visceral change for each individual in his own unique way.</p>
<p>You may not have read a lot of posts from me or heard much from PickUp 101 in the way of theory.&nbsp; Sure, I know the theory, but really I don&#039;t like to talk theory much any more.&nbsp; What I want to see is a man smiling, happy, with lots of women around him - and honestly I don&#039;t care if he knows &quot;why it worked&quot;.&nbsp; He&#039;s got his own success, and that&#039;s what I want for him most.</p>
<p>When you come to our workshop, you have to work.&nbsp; It&#039;s called a workshop, well guess what&#8230; you&#039;re the one doing the work!&nbsp; If you want to make change, it&#039;s your life.&nbsp; We&#039;re guiding the way.&nbsp; We&#039;re correcting you along the path, but you must expect to be engaged in the process.</p>
<p>If you&#039;re looking to just get more info from a seminar that you can fill a notebook with, then you probably shouldn&#039;t take this workshop.&nbsp; But, if you want to actually practice the skills that naturals have been practicing all of their life.&nbsp; And you want to feel the change in your body and see real results in your life, then this workshop is perfect.</p>
<p>Also, like I said before, it may be your only chance to work with a female instructor who is actually experienced in coaching men, and has already touched many men&#039;s lives.&nbsp; That alone should be enough to get your butt there.</p>
<p>And of course, come to the workshop just because I&#039;m sure as hell not going all the way to Japan to have a boring time!&nbsp; We&#039;re taking the city by the storm!</p>
<p>
<strong>Genki: What are your personal hopes for the bootcamp/workshop?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Daniel: </strong>I think I said most of it above.&nbsp; But, I really just want a chance to give back to guys who may be in a situation just like how I once found myself.&nbsp;&nbsp; I want to see them walk away on Sunday with a huge grin on their face, knowing that they&#039;ve taken a HUGE step toward a life of total overwhelming abundance with women.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I know that it&#039;s possible for each guy to make those changes.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen it in my own life, and the lives of so many others.&nbsp; And, that&#039;s what I really want.</p>
<p>
<strong>Genki: Anything else you want to tell us?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Daniel: </strong>Whether I see you in Tokyo or not, I want you to go out and make the most of your life.&nbsp; If you want more women, get more women.&nbsp; If you want one amazing dream woman - go out and find her.&nbsp; If you want to be the next king of Japanese porn - do it!&nbsp; If you decide pickup isn&#039;t for you, and you&#039;d rather become world champion of karaoke - just frickin&#039; do it!&nbsp;&nbsp; Life is too damn short to not chase your dreams.&nbsp; And there&#039;s too many unhappy people in the world already.&nbsp; Find your own happiness, then share it with the world. </p>
<p>I wish you all success!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey guys, </p>
<p>Today we dig into the secret files of the VIP PickUp Lounge for a great question. </p>
<p>&quot;OK, so as great as all the PickUp 101 material is, I still don&#039;t know everything. But I want to! <img src='http://www.pickup101.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I met this totally cute cashier at a coffee shop by my apt who just started working there evenings and weekends. I chatted her up a bit and she told me that she had just moved to SF. Bantered with her some, but kept things casual. So my question is, how should I go about asking this girl for a date? </p>
<p>I mean, should I go to the coffee shop a few times and banter with her more each time, or should I just ask her out next time I see her? Also, need tactical advice on how to ask her out. I&#039;m just not sure how to approach a hired gun. Anyway, any good strategy is much appreciated and I&#039;ll let you know the results. </p>
<p>Thanks! </p>
<p>- S, SF&quot; </p>
<p>Man, it annoys me when the jargon people choose to use actually gets in the way of their success. </p>
<p>I mean, I read just enough Noam Chomsky (yeah, even a ladies&#039; man can be an egghead) to know that the language we use shapes and defines our thoughts. So choose your words carefully when you talk about game. </p>
<p>(By the way, a lot of my buddies like Neil Strauss and Mystery use a lot of jargon.&nbsp; I stand by my belief that a lot of this language can be detrimental to the learning process, but it isn&#039;t meant as an attack on these guys or anyone else for that matter - I just happen to disagree&#8230;) </p>
<p>Today&#039;s rant: hired gun. </p>
<p>Quick, what did you picture when I said that. I bet $1000 you saw a hot girl with a cowboy hat and six guns at her side, and a scowl on her face. </p>
<p>You know why you saw that? Because someone who knows a lot about the world of fantasy decided that was a cool, dangerous sounding term to describe girls who work at bars, shops and in the whole service industry. </p>
<p>Problem is, it&#039;s exactly wrong. Girls paid to work at bars, stores and such are paid to be NICE to you, not shoot you down. </p>
<p>There is also these rumors going around that these girls are constantly getting hit on by cool guys - so much so that they are immune to a truly confident man that is clearly skilled with women. </p>
<p>Oh really&#8230; </p>
<p>Are you sure about that? </p>
<p>Tell you what, the next time you are at a crowded bar or club spot with a cute &#039;hired gun&#039;, park your butt for a while and WATCH. </p>
<p>Yes, you will see an endless wave of &#039;grabbers&#039;.&nbsp; Guys who are constantly touching the women, trying to pull them close aggressively in a macho display. </p>
<p>You will also see lots of talkers.&nbsp; Guys giving weak complements, nervously telling jokes, or timidly asking questions about her life. </p>
<p>If you watch this activity long enough, you will notice something about the &#039;grabbers&#039; and the &#039;talkers&#039;&#8230; </p>
<p>You will notice that they aren&#039;t really taking there actions seriously and they don&#039;t truly expect to succeed. </p>
<p>That my friends, is why the girls don&#039;t take these guys seriously either. </p>
<p>The truth is that most of these guys lack the confidence to approach women in real life, and they ONLY flirt with &#039;hired guns&#039;. </p>
<p>If you see a real man, you&#039;ll see some talking, and certainly a splash of grabbing - but you will see a lot of confidence. </p>
<p>You will see a man who has an end in mind, and you might be surprised indeed at how seriously the girl takes him. </p>
<p>Girls paid to work at bars and such are pre-disposed to date guys they meet there&#8230; provided the guys are not weird and not complete idiots. </p>
<p>This is where the Natural Game in Art of Attraction comes in handy. </p>
<p>When you are attracted to a girl who works somewhere you go, you want to ease into the transition. That&#039;s what she&#039;s used to. Girls date customers all the time, but they need to know it&#039;s cool with the environment they work at. They will make sure their co-workers approve. Meeting her after work at her place is perfect. </p>
<p>So how do you do it? </p>
<p>Don&#039;t make her uncomfortable. No movie moments. No big productions. Be totally cool and casual and you&#039;d be amazed how easy it can be. </p>
<p>Replace your usual conversation with Banter. Role play. Tell her she&#039;s the best girlfriend you ever had, cos every time you see her, she&#039;s serving you a beer. </p>
<p>Smile and call her &quot;love&quot; in a phony Irish accent. </p>
<p>When she goes to take your money, hold onto it for a second, look her in the eye, smile and say &quot;you&#039;ve got to work harder than that with me, darling.&quot; </p>
<p>Flirt shamelessly, and then make a smooth transition into seeing what she&#039;s doing after work. </p>
<p>Maybe you&#039;ll finally find yourself doing something fun after work! </p>
<p>Keep making girls smile, and see what they then do for you, </p>
<p>Lance Mason </p>
<p>&quot;I can say that your products worked wonders for me. I am spending the night at a friend&#039;s place. She&#039;s red hot, a fashion designer, body created by a perfectionist angel, eyes that literally defines heavenly, and simply has what it takes to be a woman. I had one of my best times with her&#8230; This is how far your help got me. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#039;re a sports fan, you&#039;ve most likely heard a sports<br />
announcer refer to some team as &#034;THE DREAM TEAM&#034;</p>
<p>Now I&#039;m not sure when it was first used, but any team that<br />
is TALENT heavy will get that label.</p>
<p>Often it&#039;s an all star team going to an international<br />
competition, like when the Olympics first changed the ruling<br />
and professional players from the NBA were allowed to play.</p>
<p>The reason the word &#039;DREAM&#039; is used, is because often fans<br />
would dream about what it would be like to see the best<br />
players together as a team.</p>
<p>It&#039;s like a dream come true for a sports fan to see these<br />
guys work together&#8230; the best of the best.</p>
<p>By now you&#039;re probably wondering what this has to do with<br />
meeting ladies, so here&#039;s what&#039;s up.</p>
<p>For a long time I&#039;ve wondered what it would be like to teach<br />
a workshop with a hand-picked team of my BEST instructors.</p>
<p>I&#039;m talking the crème-de-la-crème, the men who not only have<br />
the best skills with women, but also who are KICK-ASS<br />
instructors.</p>
<p>So I finally did it.  I&#039;ve hand picked two of my top guys,<br />
and we are going to do a one-time SPECIAL WORKSHOP as a<br />
team.</p>
<p>Listen, there are a TON of men I&#039;ve trained who are good<br />
with women.  Men who have made the transition from zero to<br />
&#039;Natural Ladies Man&#039;.</p>
<p>The kind of man you might see in a club and you&#039;ll swear<br />
he&#039;s ALWAYS been good with women because he makes it look<br />
EASY.</p>
<p>But let&#039;s face it, not all of these men are cut out to be MY<br />
instructors.</p>
<p>In fact, very few of them make it all the way through my<br />
intense Instructor Training Program.</p>
<p>Make no mistake, I don&#039;t give a damn how good you are with<br />
women, if you can&#039;t teach other men, you&#039;ll NEVER be one of<br />
my instructors.</p>
<p>Out of the thousands of men I&#039;ve taught the secrets of<br />
&#039;Natural Game&#039;, only a handful have qualified to be my<br />
senior instructors.</p>
<p>Out of that handful, I&#039;ve picked two of the best.  Two men<br />
that have THOUSANDS of hours of real world experience both<br />
in field and as an instructor.</p>
<p>Men that are equally awesome at meeting women in a night<br />
club as in a bookstore (daygame).</p>
<p>Men that constantly get TOP RATINGS from PickUp 101 clients<br />
after each workshop.</p>
<p>To sum it up&#8230; these guys ROCK!</p>
<p>Can you tell I&#039;m excited about this?!?  I feel like an<br />
obsessed sports fan who is finally getting to see MY dream<br />
team come together.</p>
<p>So who are they?</p>
<p>Well, if you&#039;ve been paying attention recently, you&#039;ve read<br />
field reports from each of them.</p>
<p>Two week&#039;s ago you read a report from Daniel&#039;s  called &#034;The<br />
Softest Lips&#034;, and you may have also seen some lecture clips<br />
(and student hidden camera fieldwork!) from a recent<br />
workshop Eric Disco led.</p>
<p>So here&#039;s the deal&#8230;</p>
<p>Eric, Daniel, and myself are getting together in May in New<br />
York city as a part of our instructor training program.<br />
There&#039;s a lot of new instructors that have been training<br />
hard and helping out, and we need to put them through the<br />
ropes and see who&#039;s ready for the big time.</p>
<p>And while we are all together I wanted to do something<br />
special, so there will be a ONE TIME &#034;Dream Team Workshop&#034;<br />
in New York City on May 23rd - 25th.</p>
<p>This will be the ONLY chance this year to learn from PickUp<br />
101&#039;s best instructors all at the same time.</p>
<p>In fact, it&#039;s one of the LAST chance&#039;s you&#039;ll have to take<br />
the Art of Attraction with me!  (I&#039;m almost exclusively<br />
teaching only large seminar programs these days)</p>
<p>Like I said, I&#039;m frickin&#039; EXCITED about this workshop, and<br />
it would be great if you were one of the lucky men who will<br />
be there!</p>
<p>This is going to be more than fun, this is going to be an<br />
EPIC workshop, and if you are there your success with women<br />
will SKYROCKET!</p>
<p>You can bet I&#039;m going to get you to say a few words on how<br />
amazing it was for you to train with the Dream Team.</p>
<p>Who knows&#8230; some day you might make it on to Dream Team II.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p>
<p>Next week I’m going to be making a HUGE announcement that involves myself, Eric, and New York City.  Stay tuned for the details.</p>
<p>In the meantime today’s Field Report Friday comes to use from our head instructor Eric Disco and all the students who just went through his Art of Rapport workshop in New York last weekend March 28th – 30th. </p>
<p>As always, the workshop was a huge success thanks to all the men who stepped up and faced there fears – even when things were NOT going so well. </p>
<p>I’ll let Eric take it away: </p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- </p>
<p>&#034;This is the most important part of the weekend,&#034; I say to the students in the Art of Rapport workshop. </p>
<p>Now comes the time when we brag about how awesome we did.&#034; One student is not doing awesome.  </p>
<p>Or at least he feels that way.</p>
<p>We just spent the last four hours going around Manhattan trying to meet women in different locations: bookstores, cafe&#039;s, supermarkets, records stores, in parks and just walking down the sidewalk. </p>
<p>&#034;I&#039;m actually doing worse,&#034; Mark says.  &#034;I&#039;ve gotten phone numbers from women before, but today I didn&#039;t get any.<br />
It&#039;s like I was so nervous, maybe I was putting too much pressure on myself.&#034; </p>
<p>This bragging session truly is the most important part of the weekend.  It&#039;s not because I want the guys to think they had a better experience than they really did.<br />
It&#039;s good to be honest with yourself. It is the most important part of the weekend because it&#039;s where we learn to appreciate our victories.  </p>
<p>When you have a great day out there trying to meet women, you don&#039;t need anyone to tell you to buck up and keep going.  You feel great.  There is no better feeling. </p>
<p>It&#039;s those days when it seems like you aren&#039;t making progress that you need to appreciate yourself. </p>
<p>&#034;Massive Support,&#034; as we say in Pickup 101.  By getting out there and challenging yourself, you are making progress, no matter how small the increments, even if it seems like you are going backwards on some days.</p>
<p>Going around the circle, the students take turns and talk about their experiences.  Zaid, who is a master at banter and night game, talks about how difficult it is for him to tone it down and actually connect with a girl. </p>
<p>&#034;What you did is brave,&#034; I tell Zaid. &#034;If this were tennis, you&#039;d have an amazing backhand.  And instead of going to your backhand, you worked on your forehand, something you&#039;re not as good at.&#034;</p>
<p>And it&#039;s true. </p>
<p>It&#039;s not easy to do something you&#039;re not as good at. Some of us are really good at some things.  Maybe you&#039;re an expert computer programmer.  Or a surgeon, like one of the guys in our class.  Or you are good at making money.</p>
<p>It&#039;s not easy to go back to kindergarten and learn something you&#039;re not as good at, like meeting women.  It takes a brave man to learn something he&#039;s not good at. </p>
<p>By the time we get back around to Mark, I can see his posture has changed.  He&#039;s already looking over the day with a different light, doing the most important thing possible, which is appreciating himself. </p>
<p>The next day we go out&#8230; and he&#039;s an animal.  He meets a fantastic girl and goes on an instant date with her.  He puts all the tools he learned in the workshop, both day game and rapport, to good use. </p>
<p>Makin&#039; me proud! </p>
<p>And he wasn&#039;t the only one to have breakthroughs.  All the guys, at all different levels, had phenomenal experiences.  A confident Asian American guy, who had difficulty making himself vulnerable ended up on an coffee date with a girl who is one of the most beautiful I&#039;ve seen on the streets of New York.  </p>
<p>Other guys, who had never approached a woman before, ended up with phone numbers and amazing experiences with beautiful women. All because they were willing to take that first step. </p>
<p>Think you have the courage to take that first brave step?  Sign up for Pickup 101&#039;s Art of Rapport workshop today. </p>

<p>-Eric Disco</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;- </p>
<p>Thanks Eric, and thanks to all the men who stepped up and faced there fears last weekend. </p>
<p>Now go meet some women this weekend! </p>
<p>-Lance Mason </p>
<p>P.S. – Here are some comments from last weekend’s New York attendee’s </p>
<p>&#034;I chose Pickup 101 because they teach natural confidence and bring out the attractive man inside.  I wasn&#039;t able to approach women at night before I took the Art of Attraction and it was life-changing.  Then I noticed that I have the same issue, which is not being able to approach at day and build good rapport.  Taking AoR was the perfect solution.  Eric is an amazing teacher and great mentor.  He added so much to my night game in AoA and I can see the same &#034;Aha&#039;s&#034; in day game.  He game me so many specific comments that were very effective and direct to the point. </p>
<p>It was really great what the coaches taught me.  You guys taught me things and I put it all together.  I approached this girl on the subway train on the way home.  She asked me what I do and I told her a story that was really short but effective and connecting.  It was really engaging and she really liked it.  And I was only talking about computer programming, which is a turn off for most girls!  And she was really engaged.  Then we talked about childhood and we connected with how she moved from Manhattan into Jersey and all the feelings it brought.  It was great, it was such a great interaction.  When I asked for her number, I just opened my phone and gave it to her.  She said &#034;What&#039;s that?&#034; I said &#034;This is this new invention, people use it to communicate. It&#039;s called a phone.&#034;  She laughed.  And said &#034;What do you want me to do?&#034;  I said &#034;Just put your number in there.&#034;  She said &#034;You&#039;re so bold!&#034;  I said &#034;I&#039;m just a guy, I liked you, you&#039;re cool, I&#039;m not going to miss out on this opportunity.&#034;  I said &#034;I promise I&#039;ll only call you night and day and day and night and breathe into your ear.  It&#039;s gonna be fun.&#034;  And she just laughed as she put her number in.&#034;  </p>
<p>-Zaid E, New Jersey</p>
<p>&#034;I approached an Asian girl in Barnes and Noble and we talked for about 30 minutes.  She was sitting on the floor, which was a challenge.  But I had done it twice before with less success.  I asked her a few questions about the book she was reading and it was ON.  She basically shared her life story and I listened to her intently.  Once in a while, I would interrupt her and say or share something.  When I decided to leave, she stopped me and asked me for my Facebook contact.  Then she kept talking and later asked me what were my dreams.  Our conversation ended soon after on a positive note.  The coaches were very knowledgeable and persuasive.  I liked that they gently pushed me to approach.  I needed it.&#034; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I went to a business conference last weekend and was<br />
reminded of an important lesson that relates to women.</p>
<p>I had enjoyed the conference and had learned a TON.  I had<br />
learned from the presentations, learned from conversations<br />
with friends I knew there, and had learned from numerous<br />
one-on-one conversations with some absolute rock-stars in<br />
business and marketing.</p>
<p>Guys who had created and sold businesses valued anywhere<br />
from the millions to hundreds of millions of dollars.</p>
<p>(By the way, the CEO of a billion dollar company that I<br />
talked to turned out to be a fan of my material so if you&#039;re<br />
reading this you are in pretty good company.)</p>
<p>Anyway, through these connections I ended up getting a free<br />
ride to the airport on my way home from the event.</p>
<p>During the ride I asked my driver if he enjoyed the<br />
conference.</p>
<p>To say I was happy with the event would be an<br />
understatement, so you can imagine my surprise when my<br />
driver complained about the seminar.</p>
<p>He claimed that there wasn&#039;t anything really new presented,<br />
and even bragged that everything that had been discussed was<br />
stuff that he had already learned before.</p>
<p>I pointed out to him that people as a whole don&#039;t really<br />
change much from year to year. It follows that if you want<br />
to  market to them effectively then your techniques would<br />
not change from year to year either.</p>
<p>That didn&#039;t seem to help him much.</p>
<p>At this point I should mention that my driver was NOT<br />
in the category of guys who had sold businesses for millions<br />
of dollars.  From what I could gather, he was successful in<br />
just barely making a living, but not much else.</p>
<p>As a teacher and an educator, I could immediately tell that<br />
this man was a self-help paradox.</p>
<p>He had paid thousands to attend.</p>
<p>He had taken time away from his business and had flown in<br />
from out of town.</p>
<p>And yet he wasn&#039;t there to learn.</p>
<p>Not really.</p>
<p>He was NOT there to achieve mastery in business and<br />
marketing, which are VERY deep and complicated skill sets.</p>
<p>He was there to learn something NEW.</p>
<p>Those are VERY different goals, and will get you very<br />
different results.</p>
<p>The truth is, in business and in women, you can chase down<br />
that latest FAD promoted by the industry, OR you can focus<br />
on the FUNDAMENTALS.</p>
<p>The FAD chasers get a surface-level understanding of one<br />
technique after another.</p>
<p>When the don&#039;t get money (or women) right away they quickly<br />
jump on the NEW fad in hopes that this so-called NEW thing<br />
is the missing secret.</p>
<p>Those who get results, on the other hand, know that the key<br />
is in MASTERING the fundamentals.</p>
<p>That&#039;s why the successful business people were happy to stay<br />
and learn - THEY were always able to find something new to<br />
learn about the fundamentals of their business.</p>
<p>And that&#039;s why our workshop focus on fundamentals, and yet<br />
NEVER get old - even to our executive coaches who have been<br />
teaching them for years.</p>
<p>Fundamentals never get old, and fads almost never work.</p>
<p>Now go work on the FUNDAMENTALS,</p>
<p>Your friend,</p>

about inner game, outer game, routines, lines, push/pull,<br />

<p>OK, you asked for it. Time to go to school on the subject<br />
of&#8230;</p>
<p>ALWAYS knowing what to say next with Vibing.</p>
<p>Vibing is a way of talking to a whole group that gets the<br />
comfortable with you and trusting you. Like when you meet a<br />
new person, they share a little something about themselves<br />
you can relate to, and you think , &#034;hey, he seems like a<br />
good guy.&#034;</p>
<p>That&#039;s your goal with Vibing. Just relate and let the group<br />
think &#034;he seems like a good guy.&#034;</p>
<p>Done properly, this makes it very easy to get to real<br />
rapport in one-on-one with the girl you like.</p>
<p>So what are the steps and keys to vibing?</p>
<p>1. After you have them laughing, choose one girl from group<br />
as your girl.</p>
<p>2. Get side by side with girl you like the most while joking<br />
with the group &#034;I like this girl. Can I keep her?&#034;</p>
<p>This makes the girls comfortable, because they know which<br />
one you like, and it makes you comfortable, because now you<br />
are in as part of a couple.</p>
<p>3. Now vibe with whole group. Small talk.</p>
<p>Here&#039;s the structure for your small talk to keep it<br />
interesting and keep it flowing.</p>
<p>* Always to make connections between you   and them. &#034;Yes<br />
and,&#034; not &#034;No, but&#034; * Ask small talk questions * Get their<br />
response * Echo back their response, and either     relate<br />
with something you know about     it, or confess you don&#039;t<br />
know about it,   and ask what it&#039;s like * Share your answer<br />
to the question and    relate it back to them in emotionally<br />
relevant terms * Keep it fun and positive!!!</p>
<p>Here&#039;s an example of Vibing using this structure:</p>
<p>Let&#039;s take the most standard Small Talk question there is:</p>
<p>&#034;Where are you from?&#034;</p>
<p>They answer, &#034;we&#039;re from Tuscany.&#034;</p>
<p>You reply with an echo back to show you listened to their<br />
answer, and invite them to share a little more.</p>
<p>&#034;Oh, you&#039;re from Tuscany. I know nothing about Tuscany. Is<br />
it a cool place? They have good ice cream, right?&#034;</p>
<p>You don&#039;t have to talk about ice cream. I just happen to<br />
love ice cream, so it&#039;s easy for me to get enthusiastic<br />
about it.</p>
<p>Now here&#039;s the key to vibing.</p>
<p>Do NOT expect the group to have some great stories ready to<br />
share, especially if you are dealing with a group of girls.</p>
<p>They have no reason to invest anything in you yet, and even<br />
if they did, women do not converse like men do. They don&#039;t<br />
practice one-upping each other&#039;s stories, so they don&#039;t have<br />
lots of material just waiting to unroll.</p>
<p>But you can make it easier for them to relate to you if you<br />
take their short answer and use it to reveal something about<br />
yourself for them to connect to.</p>
<p>Have good answers ready to each of your questions. You<br />
answer is just a conversational thread that you relate back<br />
to them.</p>
<p>To keep the conversation moving you want to have an idea of<br />
bullet points you can move on to so you don&#039;t run out of<br />
things to say.</p>
<p>For example, your answer to the question &#034;where are you<br />
from,&#034; might be:</p>
<p>* I&#039;m from Tottenham.</p>
<p>BUt then to keep the convesation moving, you can cover the<br />
following ideas.</p>
<p>* Huge fan of Spurs football club. * They&#039;re good, but they<br />
never ever win. * Every year, I think this is the year.</p>
<p>Just when it seems to be a very &#034;male oriented&#034; conversation<br />
that is all about YOU, you make it apply to the women in a<br />
fin and interesting way.</p>
<p>* You know what it&#039;s like when you keep    hoping for<br />
something, even though you know it will never happen? * (let<br />
the girls react) * Like you&#039;re waiting for your boyfriend<br />
to buy you a ring? * That&#039;s what it&#039;s like, but its fun.<br />
like, every year, new hope. * Every year, I wait for the<br />
ring, and I   never get it, but I love them anyways. * You<br />
know what I mean?</p>
<p>When you are thinking about your conversational threads, you<br />
want to talk naturally.  DOn&#039;t worry about the BEST way to<br />
say things, just relax.</p>
<p>Always make sure you relate things back to the group when<br />
you get to the end of your conversational thread. You want<br />
to give them a clear invitation to join in and relate to the<br />
emotional content you just offered.</p>
<p>Again, don&#039;t look for them to top it, and make sure you<br />
aren&#039;t playing the game of &#034;my story is better than yours.&#034;</p>
<p>The point of vibing, remember, is not to impress, but to<br />
relate.</p>
<p>So what&#039;s keeping you? Now you know what to say next, so get<br />
out there and get working on your rap!</p>
<p>Now go meet some women,</p>
<p>Lance Mason</p>
<p>P.S. Vibing is just a small part of the ALWAYS knowing what<br />
to say equation. You can see explanations and demonstrations<br />
of just about everything I have to say on the topic on my<br />
Charismatic Conversations Take-Home Training Kit.  You even<br />

of what girls REALLY mean when they are talking to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have been holding off getting one of my<br />
programs because of the price, then this will<br />
be the most exciting message I&#039;ve ever sent<br />
you.</p>
<p>Ever wished you could get in the Art of<br />
Rapport workshop at early 2006 Prices?  </p>
<p>Been desiring your own copy of Fearless<br />
First Impressions, Physical Confidence, or<br />
Charismatic COnversations, but thought it<br />
was out of your budget??</p>
<p>Then this is your lucky day!</p>
<p>Help me pay my tax bill, and I&#039;ll help you by<br />
giving you the lowest price you&#039;ll EVER see on<br />
PickUp 101 products.   </p>
<p>But only if you&#039;re fast.  And I mean Lightning<br />
Fast.</p>
<p>There are ONLY SIX WORKSHOPS at the discounted rate.</p>
<p>First come, first served.</p>
<p>You snooze you lose!</p>

<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Lance Mason</p>
<p>P.S. Last year when we raised workshop prices,<br />
we sold 23 the day before the price increase.</p>
<p>My point&#8230; The six workshops will go<br />
immediately, so don&#039;t hesitate.</p>

<p>P.P.S. - By the way, just to be clear.  I am<br />
NOT in tax trouble this year like I was last year.</p>
<p>(I DID learn my lesson on this one)</p>
<p>So why the sale, you might ask?  The answer, of<br />
course, is on the Tax Break page, you&#039;ll just<br />
have to go there to get the full scoop:</p>
