I was digging through some old pictures a couple days ago and I found a bunch from Project Hollywood. Looking at them won’t make you better with girls, but if you read The Game and want to see what it was actually like, check out:

I just finished a workout so I can hardly think straight. Let’s get straight to the question:
————————————-
Hi Tynan,
I have what I guestion is one question posed in two ways.
I Have read that a woman knows if she is interested in a guy before he approaches her and that she gives body language cues such as playing with her hair etc.
So my question is if a guy does not see any indication of interest should he approach her anyway. In some cases can he attract her interest if at first she seems to have none.

Hey GL,
Your question brings us down to the foundation of what pick up is all about. Can genuine attraction be created, or is it there or not there.
The reason this question comes up (you aren’t the only one to ask it, btw), is because for us guys, we know exactly how WE get attracted. If the girl is hot, we are attracted. If she’s ugly, nothing in the world is going to get us attracted.
An interesting and related bit of trivia. Did you know that back when steam engines were the pinnacle of technology, we used to compare EVERYTHING to them? We used to think that human bodies operated like steam engines. Not exactly, of course, but they’d say things like “well, the food you eat is like the coal that goes in the furnace, and then you have to properly digest it to extract the most energy out of it.”
Sounds ridiculous, right?
Well now think of how we think of computers, our new cutting edge technology. We compare humans to computers.
The point is this - we use analogies to gain understanding. Computers are the most sophistitcated pieces of technology that we understand, so we compare ourselves to them.
At the same time, our model of attraction that we understand is how WE get attracted, so we assume that girls are the same way.
But they’re not.
Are there SOME guys that will instantly attract girls? Yes, maybe 2%. They look just like her high school crush, maybe. Or they look like the singer in her favorite band that she fantasizes about.
But for MOST of us, we start off in the “maybe” category. Girls aren’t so quick to judge. There are evolutionary reasons for this, but I won’t get into them (mainly because I’m not an expert on that).
Girls care a lot about your personality and very little about your looks. I’d say that looks are 5% of the equation and personality is 95%. That’s not an exaggeration - it’s based on my personal experience of not being a very good looking guy who girls really like.
So you have TWO things to work on:
1. Develop a good personality. Chances are you already have most of the key components here already, it’s just a matter of honing them and taking a look at what habits serve you and which take away from you. For example being non-needy and confident serves you, while being jealous and petty will repel girls.
2. Learn how to convey your personality. An awesome personality is no good if a girl can’t experience it. Just like a good movie is no good if you don’t have a DVD player. To get this down you learn how to be honest and authentic with girls and tell good stories which get your personality across.
But let’s say for a second that you don’t believe me - because some people don’t.
Should you still approach?
Yes.
If you don’t approach, your chances with her are .01%. I’m willing to give you that small percentage because maybe one in 10,000 girls you see in your life will approach you.
Your chances if you DO approach depend on how good your personality is and how good you are at conveying that personality. But even if you have an unrefined personality and aren’t great at conveying it… approaching is still better than not approaching.
I hope that answers your question, GL. My entire pick up course is focused on helping you develop your personality and showing you how to convey it in the easiest and most effective way. I’m going to send you a free copy to get you started down the path to glory.
For everyone else reading this, make sure to go to www.makeherchaseyou.com/newsletter and pick up a copy of the course. It
includes my 124 page ebook, a 70+ minute hidden microphone audio of me picking up girls, a short wingman guide, and a 30 day online course with lessons and missions every day for a month.
Take care,

Tynan

Word!
One of the hardest things I have is that I keep thinking that girls view the world and act the same way I do. Something like:
“Girls care a lot about your personality and very little about your looks. I’d say that looks are 5% of the equation and personality is 95%. That’s not an exaggeration - it’s based on my personal experience of not being a very good looking guy who girls really like.”
Needs to be constantly beat into guys like me’s heads (I’m sure there were a dozen grammatical errors in that last sentence but I’m gonna DHV by showing non-reactiveness
