PickUp 101

What kind of guy are you?

In my years of teaching guys how to approach women, I've
noticed that guys who won't approach generally fall into 2
categories.

1. Don't have a CLUE what to say or do

2. Have TOO MANY ideas on what to say and do

Now, the interesting thing is that NEITHER guy will
approach, but for VERY different reasons.

You see, the first guy won't approach because he feels out
of his COMFORT zone and will worry that he'll make a FOOL
out of himself or that people will LAUGH or make fun of him.

I like to use the analogy that it would be like deciding you
want to play guitar, and your first lesson is to go on stage
at an open mike night before you have even learned to play a
chord.

I'd be freaking out too if put in that situation.

But the second guy… he has likely spent hundreds of hours
studying material on Internet forums. Maybe he has even
bought a few e-books on how to pickup women.

And based on all this material, he has created a list as
long as your arm of opening lines, stories, routines, and
even gambits like palm reading or mind reading as part of
his bag of tricks.

He thinks he is prepared, but you know what usually happens
with a guy like this… he DOES NOTHING!

It's The Dreaded Analysis Paralysis!

I don't know where I first heard the expression "Analysis
Paralysis", but it's a perfect description of what happens
to the second guy.

He has so many options on his list (or in his brain), that
when he sees a woman instead of walking up to her
confidently IMMEDIATELY, he instead begins to run down his
list of 173 opening lines and decide which one to use.

If he manages to pick one before the woman leaves (or some
guy that knows what he's doing begins talking to her), he
then runs through his 87 attraction stories to decide which
one to use.

Okay, he's got the opener and the story, but wait, how does
he transition from one to the other. And what's the next
story.

And which routine should he use if she brings up the
'boyfriend objection.'

And what approach angle should he use.

And…

Kind of painful to even think like that isn't' it? I know
it makes my brain hurt.

But even if he was to figure his approach before the chance
to meet her was gone, fact is he has ALREADY BLOWN IT with
her by waiting to approach (and with any other women nearby
too).

If you have been reading my tips newsletter for awhile, have
taken a workshop, or you're a VIP member, you KNOW that I
stress how CRITICAL the first impression is to your success.

And standing around trying to figure out what you're going
to do and say, when you've got over 1000 possible
combinations is NOT going to make a powerful first
impression!

Confusion Will Get You Nowhere

I don't care who you are, sorting through all of that in
your mind will put you in a state of confusion (at least
temporarily), and it's impossible to be CONFIDENT when you
are confused.

And I'm sorry, but dazed and confused isn't attractive.

So let me summarize briefly, we have two guys, one who won't
approach because he doesn't know what to do, and another guy
who doesn't approach because he has TOO MANY choices on what
to do.

Surprisingly enough, the solution to BOTH of those problems
is the SAME. And it's not only just plain simple, it is at
the foundation of the Active Learning system we have
developed at PickUp 101.

A Stupid Simple Solution

The key to success here is to have ONE routine that is
EFFECTIVE for each COMMON situation.

Now I'll break this down for you as you follow along.

*ONE* conversation to rule them all!

Did you ever see the movie groundhog day?

In the movie Bill Murray gets to relive the same day over
and over again until he gets the girl he was meant to be
with.

Naturally he learns from each interaction until he knows
exactly which direction to take the conversation to allow
them to connect.

In our workshops we call this a 'conversational thread'.
This is a good description, since it MUST feel like a
completely natural conversation even though you LEAD the
conversation to a specific place.

You would actually get a worksheet, and over the 3-days of
exercise based training, we help you build a routine stack
which fits YOU and your PERSONALITY.

For example, in the Art of Attraction workshop (
http://www.PickUp101.com/AoA) your conversation will include
the OPENER, use of KINO, a STORY from your life, and BANTER
lines.

As your routine stack gets built, you PRACTICE IT over and
over again BEFORE you go out and do field work in the clubs.
(Remember, you never want to go on stage till you practice
first!)

If your having a great conversation with a hottie that
really gets a life of it's own, then that's great! Keep
flirting, relax, and just let things flow.

On the other hand, if things stall at any point in the
conversation, it's great to know you have some interesting
sexy conversations to try to breath life back into the
interaction, or just to help guide things along.

This routine stack provides you with over 3 minutes of
material. Then you TEST for attraction. If you haven't got
attraction in 3 minutes. Move on! If you have, transition
to rapport.

Simple isn't it? That's the idea. When you know EXACTLY
what to do, it frees your mind to focus on actually doing it
well.

In less than 20 approaches, your skill level will skyrocket
because you are practicing CORRECTLY each time.

Effective = Repeatable Formula That Works

Simply put, you want to use tools that are known to work,
and by work I mean women find YOU attractive right away.

Another great thing about doing the same thing over and over
is, if it's not working, you will realize it quickly and can
FIX it.

In the beginning it is best to have someone more experienced
help you to figure out what's not working and why. Go out
with a more experienced wing once in a while.

If you can't do that, ASK the women. We do thins all the
time in workshops. Once a you're done with a conversation
an instructor will go in and find out from the women what
you did right and what you did wrong. It takes brass balls,
but you'll get KILLER FEEDBACK straight from the horse's
mouth.

This process is really a matter of testing to find what
works, and then DON'T CHANGE IT when it does work.

I'll talk about this process more in a future tips
newsletter, because it's important for all phases of your
game.

Pick The Low Hanging Fruit

You want to start by developing a conversation for a common
situation. By a COMMON situation, I mean one that occurs in
your area all the time. Don't make this difficult for
yourself, the idea is to get good fast, so soon you'll have
more dates than you ever imagined possible.

You can eventually have a specific method for very unique
situations, but in the beginning that will work AGAINST you.
It's really better to wait till you are more advanced to do
that.

For now, start with one scenario, and work that one UNTIL
you begin to get positive RESULTS.

As an example, we do the field work for our first workshop
(Art of Attraction) in nightclubs.

Now we get a lot of guys who say "I don't want to meet girls
in clubs", and frankly neither do I, but it's the BEST place
to PRACTICE so you can get good FAST.

You'll consistently find more women in less time at a night
club than ANYWHERE else, unless you happen to be friends
with Hugh Hefner and get invites to Playboy Mansion parties
all the time.

Another common situation is what we refer to a 'daygame',
which really means meeting women in everyday situations.
This is where we do our fieldwork in the Art of Rapport
workshop.

You can use the same 'routine stack' in daygame, with just
ONE ADDITIONAL piece… a pre-opener. (I cover the pre-
opener in great detail on my Fearless First Impressions
program.)

Wash. Rinse. Repeat!

So you can (and should) just have ONE EFFECTIVE routine that
you can use in the two most COMMON scenarios. Then
PRACTICE.

In no time at all, you won't have to think about what to say
or do, and you'll be CONFIDENT during your approach. In
other words your first impression will be getting more
powerful with EACH repetition.

At that point, you could begin a new routine stack for
daygame. Maybe this time experimenting with using Direct
approach methods. But KEEP your original that you now KNOW
is working for you.

Over time you can develop a method for loud clubs, book
stores, gymnasiums, quiet lounges, parties, shopping malls,
coffee shops, etc.

Keep Adding To Your Toolbox

Think of it like building a set of tools. In the beginning
you may just get a hammer, set of screwdrivers, pliers, and
some wrenches. A basic toolbox that handles your most
common needs.

Later you find you need a drill and a bubble level to hang
pictures on the wall. Another time you decided you want to
repair your bathroom so you get a caulk gun, and pipe
wrenches.

Eventually you get a table saw, mitre box, and belt sander
to do carpentry.

This is what I and my instructors do, in each new scenario,
we come up with new tools as needed. But we all started
with just one common scenario and got that down pat.

Do It Now - An Assignment

So here's some homework for you… take out a piece of paper
right now, and write down a common situation where you would
like to meet women.

Next, plan out exactly how it should go. Remember to
include the approach, body language, and especially to use
kino right away.

Rehearse it in your mind (successfully of course), and then
set a time to go out and practice. Don't change anything
until you do it at least 10 times, 20 is better. Make small
changes only.

If you have a wingman, tell him what you are doing so he
can help you out.

Do it today. You'll thank me later.

Oh, and when you're done, let me know how it went for you at
asklance[at]pickup101[dot]com

Now, go meet some women.
