			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>I’ve got a really interesting study that will really get you thinking.</p>
<p>Now, before I get started… please understand that even though this may seem a little harsh, I feel like everyone should know about it for their own well being.</p>
<p>Okay, enough of the disclaimer…</p>
<p>The other day, I was noticing all of the commercials on TV that had to do with beauty products, hair care, and other “head” stuff. Now, this wasn’t just the women’s stuff either — there were plenty of men’s products as well.</p>
<p>All of these commercials for elaborate hairstyles and “new age” skin cleaners really got me thinking…</p>
<p>I’ve always thought it weird that the same people that can’t afford a $50/mo health club membership were the same people that were spending $200+/mo on so called “self improvement” products.</p>
<p>So I decided to do a little “mini” study.</p>
<p>I asked 50 men from all walks of life this question:</p>
<blockquote><p>“What do you find more attractive, a woman with a beautiful face but an okay body, or a woman with an awesome body and an okay looking face?”</p></blockquote>
<p>I was surprised by the answers I received.</p>
<p>Would you believe that over 80% of the men said that they found the women with the okay face and rocking body far more attractive than the beautiful face and the okay body?</p>
<p>Would you also believe that the more successful the men… the more prominent the distinction?</p>
<p><strong>I was floored.</strong></p>
<p>Not only that, but the men that were in shape responded in much the same way as the more successful men.</p>
<p>In fact, only the men that were out of shape and relatively unsuccessful in life preferred the pretty face and okay body.</p>
<p>Now, before everyone goes completely ape cacca on me &#8211; let’s see what that really means.</p>
<p><strong>1. It levels the playing field for those that don’t have the “natural gifts”of facial beauty. (this is great news)</p>
<p>2. It means that many people (both men and women) may be focusing on the wrong things when they are trying to “look better” for the opposite sex. (maybe not so great news)</strong></p>
<p>These limited results make sense when you look at it. People that are in shape generally exude a higher level of self confidence &#8211; to the point that I actually read an article one day saying that depending on the job, one particular ad agency said that they would rather hire an out of shape person rather than an in shape person because the out of shape person “falls in line” better.</p>
<p>In other words, they tend to have less of a backbone and just do what they’re told.</p>
<p>Seriously, could I come close to making this up?</p>
<p>Not likely.</p>
<p>Also, self confidence is the one common thread that I noticed. The men perceived (big “underline” here) the in shape woman as having much more self confidence and that was attractive to them.</p>
<p>A few others stated that it was attractive to be around a woman that was interested in keeping herself healthy.</p>
<p>Now, this is by far from an accurate study so don’t necessarily take this as the gospel. But, it is what it is.</p>
<p>Next, I think I’ll ask a bunch of women the same question and see what the response is. I imagine it’ll go something like this:</p>
<p>“Well… how much money do they have”?</p>
<p>I’m kidding.</p>
<p>I really think it will turn out the same &#8211; but, I’ve been wrong before.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>(p.s.  If you haven’t already, go check <a href=http://www.adoniseffect.com/sc_promo>out the free video and Adonis Index calculator</a>… and get a free two week sample of the Adonis Effect in the process…)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>When I want something, I go after it full force. I don’t b.s. around and wait for it to mysteriously manifest in front of me. I don’t WISH for things to happen. I make them happen.</p>
<p>I do fail, that’s part of the learning process. Did you know that Thomas Edison tried over 10,000 different combinations and ideas before coming up with the light bulb? Failures are only lessons to be learned. After all, we learned how to ride a bike by falling off of it a few times.</p>
<p>Is it the fault of our schools that most people are afraid of failing? Think about it, every test you took years ago, you were penalized when you had the wrong answer.</p>
<p>I don’t know about you, but if I missed something on a test, that’s when I really learned. Not from homework.</p>
<p>Isn’t failing just your way of figuring out what NOT TO DO?</p>
<p>Did you know that they say that most people are only one failure away from success?</p>
<p>Here’s a quick story for you. During the gold rush back in California, a couple of (amateur) men struck gold in a preliminary dig. After investing huge sums of money to try to dig up as much gold as possible, they found that the amount of gold available to them in their “find” wasn’t as much as they thought.</p>
<p>So, what did they do?</p>
<p>They packed up, of course. They were amateurs. Now, little did they know that the man that bought all of their equipment (for scrap metal) called a well known geologist in and after careful calculation, discovered that another vein of gold lay just 3 feet under where the other guys stopped.</p>
<p>(Which proves that paying for expert advice is ALWAYS a great way to go. Free advice is the most expensive advice you can get, especially in the dating industry… where apparently, none of the people that talk the talk are getting laid… lol)</p>
<p>Would you believe that this vein of gold would prove to be the one of the largest veins of gold found during the entire goal rush!</p>
<p>3 feet away.</p>
<p><strong>Question:  Are You Half-Assing Your Life?</strong></p>
<p>What are you leaving on the table?</p>
<p>Did you ever go on an Easter Egg hunt as a kid? What about a scavenger hunt? How about a hunt for birthday presents?</p>
<p>Do you remember when they told you that there were 23 eggs in the yard and everyone had to find them? Of course you do. Once they were all found, everyone would come back together to find out who had the most eggs… you know, to find out who won.</p>
<p>(What does all of this have to do with talking to women? No worries, I’ll tell you in a second).</p>
<p>I remember when I was a young kid, there was this BIG easter egg hunt in the mail in my hometown. Everyone in town came. All of my elementary school buddies were there.</p>
<p>But there was a huge buzz around this particular Easter Egg hunt. You see, 2 of the eggs were going to be “Golden Eggs” and they were supposed to have a 100 bill in each. I don’t know about you, but a hundred smackers to a little kid is like a million to me now.</p>
<p>It was a lot of money.</p>
<p>Once the game started, all hell broke loose. Kids were EVERYWHERE in the common area of the mall. It started on one end of the mall and worked it’s way to the other side as more and more eggs were found.</p>
<p>There was one shriek… and a short time later, another one followed (obviously, the “golden eggs” had been found)</p>
<p>Within two minutes, you should have seen all of the kids that started to file out of the mail after the second “golden egg” was found.</p>
<p>Ironically, after about half of the kids had made their way outside with their parents… there was another shriek from the other end of the mall.</p>
<p>Apparently, someone found another “golden egg”. The organizers had told everyone that there were only two “golden eggs”, when in fact, there were 10!</p>
<p>All of the sudden, the place was an absolute zoo once again because no one knew exactly how many “golden eggs” were in the mall. After all, if a third was found, there might be a fourth, or a fifth…</p>
<p>Soon enough, all ten eggs were found and the event coordinators told everyone that the “game” was officially over and that all 10 golden eggs had been found.</p>
<p>Would you believe that it took another 10 minutes after that to get all of the kids to quit looking for eggs? The discovery of the 3rd egg earlier (out of a supposed 2), made finding an 11th egg even more desirable.</p>
<p>But what about the kids that had already left? Do you know what happened to them?</p>
<p>Here’s the funny part: it wasn’t the kids that wanted to leave…</p>
<p><strong>IT WAS THE PARENTS!</strong></p>
<p>The parents were so disgusted with their kids not finding one of the two golden eggs, they actually left before the game was over.</p>
<p>THEY DIDN’T EVEN WANT THEIR KIDS TO FINISH THE GAME!</p>
<p>A game!</p>
<p>Such it is in the game of life. No one really knows how many golden eggs are really out there (although it seems that many successful people seem to find their fair share of them).</p>
<p>Is it luck? OR, is it the fact that successful people keep looking for golden eggs long after everyone else has went home…</p>
<p>The translation to becoming better with women is this:</p>
<p>Just because things have stalled in your progress doesn’t necessarily mean that nothing is happening. Keep fighting the good fight and push yourself beyond your current limits. Sooner or later.. you’ll breakthrough to your “golden eggs”. Don’t settle for mediocrity. It’s your life. Live it.</p>
<p>If you want to lose weight… lose weight.</p>
<p>If you want a perfect body… get a <a hef="http://www.adoniseffect.com/sc_promo">perfect body</a>.</p>
<p>If you want to get better with women… get better with women</p>
<p>If you want to be rich… be rich.</p>
<p>Like the parents in the Easter Egg hunt, only you can take yourself out of the game.</p>
<p>Here’s a better option: Stay in the game, learn the game, study the game, and finally…</p>
<p><strong>Master The Game!</strong></p>
<p>Yes, you’ll hit roadblocks… yes, the unexpected will happen… yes, things will get hard…</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Sheer terror.</p>
<p>You know the moment I&#8217;m talking about.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve just gotten your woman into bed, the lights are out (thank GOD!), and you&#8217;ve been pleasuring her to no end.</p>
<p>You slide between her legs.</p>
<p>She gaps&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; and pulls you in closer&#8230; with her hands rubbing up and down your body&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; over your arms&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; over your back&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; and all of the sudden&#8230; out of no where&#8230; you wonder to yourself.</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh shit, she just felt my fat roll&#8221;</p>
<p>or</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh shit, she thinks my arms are too skinny, I think she felt bone&#8221;</p>
<p>And at that single moment, a PRIMAL fear comes over you&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;What if she STOPS?!?&#8221;</p>
<p>No guy ever REALLY thinks that they need to work out, exercise, or get in better shape until a woman sees them naked.</p>
<p>Sure, it seems like its a good idea.</p>
<p>But you take a guy that&#8217;s standing naked for the FIRST time in front of a woman that he&#8217;s had his eye on&#8230; and the phrase &#8220;sense of urgency&#8221; starts to take on new meaning.</p>
<p>Do you think that this might play a little havoc on your inner game?</p>
<p>You betcha it does.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve talked to women.</p>
<p>And here&#8217;s what they&#8217;ve said.</p>
<p>Number 1:  Most men that are ashamed of their bodies tend to be more TIMID in bed.  They tend to lay on top of women, instead of pulling back&#8230; letting her see ALL OF YOU&#8230; including the &#8220;action&#8221; of your pecker moving in and out.</p>
<p>Number 2:  Every man that they&#8217;ve been with that gets in better shape becomes a MUCH better lover overall.  The &#8220;man&#8221; and his &#8220;skillz&#8221; are the same&#8230; but her perception changes&#8230; as well as&#8230;</p>
<p>Number 3:  Men that are in shape can DO MORE for LONGER than their out of shape counterparts. Lifting, moving, throwing, thrusting, etc&#8230; you get the drift.</p>
<p>Think about this for a second.</p>
<p>Ask yourself this question.</p>
<p>Is my woman thinking about ME when she masturbates?  (she&#8217;s likely not)</p>
<p>And if she is&#8230;</p>
<p>HOW would those thoughts change if I was now built like a Greek God?</p>
<p>Food for thought.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>(<strong>Notice: </strong> This is an ongoing project of ours into the research of testosterone, social status, and your body.  You may notice that this research CONFIRMS many of the things that you may have already THOUGHT you knew)</p>
<p>Social Status is defined by each encounter you have with other people. Specifically with guys, your status is typically defined by your interactions with other guys.</p>
<p>You can either be dominant or submissive… and this even happens within your close circle of friends. There is ALWAYS some jockeying for position.</p>
<p><em>So how do you know when you’re status is being challenged?</em></p>
<p>Well… some of may think it’s pretty obvious, but it’s all related to stress…</p>
<p><strong>For example: </strong> Picture a social setting of a crowded room of people at a party. Two men end up locking into a short staring contest across the room. If both men hold the stare and recognize that it is going on, this is an immediate dominance contest.</p>
<p>The act of staring right at another man is a challenge to his social status. The staring is meant to increase the other mans stress level and make him feel uncomfortable until he breaks off the staring contest and looks away.</p>
<p>At this point whoever looks away is typically submitting to the other man, and by looking away he is also admitting he is the subordinate. Interestingly enough… what follows is usually a change in posture and body language to show that submissive behavior (like he took your mojo… lol)</p>
<p>Strangely enough, what also may happen is a measurable drop in testosterone!</p>
<p>Now that is something that you don’t want to have happen, because it can throw you of your game.</p>
<p>But there’s more…</p>
<p>The man who ‘wins’ the staring contest has a rise in testosterone… furthering his feelings of status and giving him a boost of confidence.</p>
<p>His posture may also change to a more upright position and he may have more of a strut to his walk.</p>
<p>Naturally, less sophisticated and immature men might ride this feeling into more staring contests and develop a cocky attitude.  Of course, this is usually just a recipe for getting a broken nose once he picks the wrong person to ‘challenge’… at least in my neck of the woods!</p>
<p>The point isn’t to seek out these ‘dominance contests’, rather it is to recognize that these things can happen at the spur of the moment with an accidental look at someone. So you might as well be ready when it happens.</p>
<p>Any confrontation that produces a feeling of stress like this is a direct challenge to your social status.</p>
<p>When these situations happen, for your sake, you have to meet the challenge and maintain your composure… but pick your spots.</p>
<p>Most of the time the other man isn’t interested in a fight or even has an issue with you. He probably just recognizes you both ended up in an accidental stare and he also doesn’t want to back off and show subordination.</p>
<p>If anything this is probably a guy you might want to befriend as he is obviously showing alpha male traits. A simple nod of the head indicates that you acknowledge his presence but you’re not backing down either (or maybe even a smile and a wink)</p>
<p>This is a classy way to hold your status when inadvertent stare downs happen.</p>
<p>Social dominance and status contests happen all the time.</p>
<p><strong>Special Note: </strong> Be aware of your surroundings and pick your spots and never let your status drop in front of a woman you’re interested in, but don’t try to stare down the president in the white house either.</p>
<p>Maintain your status with class and you’ll also gain the other man’s respect… and the attraction from your “lady” friends.</p>
<p><strong>Question:  How would YOU handle a status challenge like this?</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong><em>A few guys have asked me why I have a column specifically for fitness and exercise. Here&#8217;s my reason: your fitness levels directly effect your confidence, mental health and physical appearance. They all impact pickup immensely! Here&#8217;s Brad:</em></strong></p>
<p>Today, I actually sent Brad Pilon (one of the co-founders of Strength Works&#8230; the developers of the Adonis Effect) an email that a subscriber sent me about abs and ab work&#8230; how much is too much, etc.<br />
<em><br />
Here&#8217;s what he sent back:</em></p>
<p>One of the most popular topics that I routinely get questions about is ab training:  ie &#8220;How do I train my abs&#8221;, or &#8220;how do I get abs&#8221;.</p>
<p>The answer I give people is so simple that I think they don&#8217;t believe me. I think they actually want a more complicated answer than I am giving them.</p>
<p>So here goes one more time.</p>
<p>1.	If you don&#8217;t need to train your abs for a specific reason like rehab, or an upcoming ab crunch competition then I find little reason to workout your abs directly.</p>
<p>2.	Excessive crunches do little for training the whole core and might actually increase your risk of spine and low back problems</p>
<p>3.	Scientific research doesn&#8217;t even know exactly how all the ab muscles work yet so its hard to give one perfect answer to ab training</p>
<p>4.	In order to see your abs all you need to do is lose fat. You don&#8217;t actually have to ever train your abs to see your abs</p>
<p>These are my simple answers to all the questions I get about abs.  Working out on your abs can only do two things to them:</p>
<p>a.	Make them bigger<br />
b.	Give them more endurance</p>
<p>Your abs are just like every other muscle, so why would they act any differently than other muscles. If you want to make your arms bigger you would just train them more often with increasingly heavier weights. So if you want to make your abs bigger you would just do the same thing.</p>
<p>If you want to build endurance in a muscle group like legs then you would train them for longer periods of time with lighter weights. The same thing applies to your abs.</p>
<p>There is no magic to ab training, they are just muscles like every other muscle. They just happen to be covered in a thick layer of fat on most people. So the true answer to &#8216;getting abs&#8217; is just removing the fat that is hiding them.</p>
<p>Every exercise you do works your abs, they are constantly active from the minute you get out of bed until you go lie back down at the end of the day. The abs are designed to hold you upright and stabilize your body and spine. They are not designed to lift massively heavy weights and crunch down hundreds of times per day.</p>
<p>Try doing a good sprint workout tomorrow and you&#8217;ll see how sore your abs get without ever doing a crunch or sit up.</p>
<p>Being physically active and doing a variety of different exercises is all the work your abs will ever need. Losing the fat around your belly is how you can show them off. Even If you&#8217;ve never worked out a day in your life or have ever done a &#8216;core workout&#8217; I guarantee there is a six pack of abs underneath whatever fat you have around your midsection. As soon as your body fat gets low enough you will be sporting a shiny new &#8220;washboard stomach&#8221;.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t stress over how to train your abs, if you go to the gym on a regular basis no matter what your training goals are I guarantee your abs are getting enough work. Spend some time focusing on fat loss and you&#8217;ll see that you&#8217;ve had abs all along.</p>
<p>Go get the <a href="http://www.adoniseffect.com/sc_promo">Adonis Effect</a>, it rocks your body to the core.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>If I’m ever single again, there’s NO WAY I’ll ever be afraid to talk to any women again after the stuff that I’ve heard… the feedback that I’ve gotten… and the sheer stats that I’ve seen on my own websites.</p>
<p>Let me explain.</p>
<p>First, check this out.</p>
<p>I was out in Raleigh on Friday night when two attractive women walked by… on their way out to the cab.</p>
<p>Now, we were all sitting outside in the comfortable weather enjoying our drinks, when someone asks one of the women (a friend of theirs I hope).</p>
<blockquote><p>“Hey, where are you guys going?”</p></blockquote>
<p>And I shit you not… this came out of the woman’s mouth:</p>
<blockquote><p>“I’ve got to go take care of my cooter!” </p></blockquote>
<p>Granted, she was a little buzzed… and her friend didn’t even flinch when she pretty much shouted it out in front of all of these strangers.</p>
<p>(Oh, and by the way, she definitely wasn’t talking about washing… or fixing it up down there because it was rotten… she was talking about getting laid)</p>
<p>I’m sitting there laughing as all of the guys around us had their jaws hit the floor.</p>
<p>A very pretty woman just told the world that she was going to get laid… and it seemed to me that she was going to do whatever it took to make that happen.</p>
<p>Hey man, drunk talk is truth talk… in most cases.</p>
<p>But that’s not the only reason that I’ll NEVER be afraid to talk to ANY women… again.</p>
<p>Since I’ve been dating the same woman for a little while now… and am now friends with her friends… I get to be privy to some of their “conversations”.</p>
<p>In fact, many times, I get asked for advice.</p>
<p>Guys, these women are NOT ugly… and they are BOY CRAZY like you wouldn’t believe.</p>
<p>They WANT you to take control.</p>
<p>They WANT great sex (hell, they talk about it more than WE do)</p>
<p>They HATE it when you can’t make a decision.</p>
<p>Oh… and they WILL sleep with you on the first date… and have already decided if they will or not within the first 10 minutes of meeting you.</p>
<p>No shit.</p>
<p>These great women are CRAVING male attention… GOOD male attention.  MAN attention.</p>
<p>AND THEY CAN’T SEEM TO GET IT.</p>
<p>They talk about how men only last 5 minutes in the sack.</p>
<p>They talk about how men bore them to death</p>
<p>Hell, just this past weekend, one of my female friends told a guy that we were with to STOP BUGGING HER… and all he was doing was “making sure” that she was okay.</p>
<p>She HATED it.</p>
<p>But there’s even more.</p>
<p>I check my website(s) stats… I know who’s subscribing.</p>
<p>Did you know that almost 30% of my newsletter subscriptions are FEMALE for the Angel Eyes site?</p>
<p>For an ALL MALE site.</p>
<p>Have you noticed that almost all of my comments are from FEMALES?</p>
<p>(Hell, even the Adonis Effect has a ton of female subscribers… for a MENS workout<br />
Program)</p>
<p>So… what does this all tell me?</p>
<p>That women are ON THE PROWL.  They want and crave great men.</p>
<p>AND they’ll go so far as to subscribe to MEN’S ONLY newsletters to try to figure us out.</p>
<p>(How many of you have subscribed to Cosmo?   NOBODY… exactly.)</p>
<p>And the emails and feedback I get… check this out.</p>
<p>When I sent an email out to my fat loss list about the Adonis launch, I got this:</p>
<blockquote><p>“&#8221;Nice to find out that someone has finally figured out that most women aren&#8217;t attracted to muscle-bound jocks.  I personally find such men totally repugnant.&#8221;</p>
<p>Take care,<br />
Hope<br />
Mar 4, 2008</p></blockquote>
<p>Here’s a message that I got from one of those Angel Eyes subscribers (she’s also on one of my fitness lists) with her explaining her dating “troubles”:</p>
<blockquote><p>“I am on a on-line dating site.</p>
<p>Messaging can only go so far. I find guys don&#8217;t know what really to say past hi how are you. If they message me a few times and ask for my phone number I give them my number.</p>
<p>They say that they will call me but never do.</p>
<p>I have meet the odd one for coffee and I am very relaxed happy interested in them and what they do and still it doesn&#8217;t go anywhere.</p>
<p>I know men like to chase woman but I have found not one of them that will do that. So I can&#8217;t do the chasing. There has been the odd one that just wants sex no strings attached that is good yet in the end that is not what I want.</p>
<p>I have copied about ten on-line messages if you are ever interested in a good read for your research. Free food and drinks that hasn&#8217;t happened for me, so don&#8217;t worry I can&#8217;t tell you are safe.</p>
<p>Yes I know about your promo good luck I also love reading your angel eyes. I even read David&#8217;s (Wygant) newsletters telling guys how to get woman.</p>
<p>Enough on here thank you for getting back to me.”</p></blockquote>
<p>(I told her to milk match.com for free food and drinks since most guys are THAT boring.  I DO know women that do that by the way… but it’s not their fault because that’s all the guys ever suggest..”</p>
<p>Here’s another sample from the same woman (and she’s not ugly by any means):</p>
<blockquote><p>“Here is where I meet most loser guys. I listen they tell me everything about their ex&#8217;s work problems you name it. I try to change the conversation. I give them x amount of time then I get up and say I am late for&#8230;.” </p></blockquote>
<p>Oh… and then this:</p>
<blockquote><p>“Brad, I finally have sometime. I have a bad cold but time.</p>
<p>What I would like from a man sorry just getting right to the point.</p>
<p>•	He takes care of himself his health and appearances<br />
•	He has a strong personality<br />
•	Don’t forget a good outlook on life<br />
•	All wrapped up in a sense of humor and willingness to do off the wall things<br />
•	An absolute if he says he is going to do something just do it<br />
•	Damn it I want to be challenged yeah tease the shit out of me, but you better be willing to take<br />
•	But don&#8217;t manipulate me”</p></blockquote>
<p>Or how about THIS comment off of one of my posts:</p>
<blockquote><p>“I would say that is partially true. I think the women just grow tired of their looks being the only thing that some men are attracted to. I like it when a man notices that I am witty, read good books, and make interesting conversation. If he thinks I&#8217;m beautiful, that&#8217;s great, but not at the top of my list.” </p></blockquote>
<p>Or what about this:</p>
<blockquote><p> “Hey great post,</p>
<p> And i think that one thing that covers all those points is that you suck because you think like a sucker.</p>
<p>What you tell yourself over and over again will be true to you.</p>
<p>If you think you are a chump then you most prolly are.</p>
<p>If you define yourself as a nerd then thats what you will come across to the world.</p>
<p>Its time to start taking some self responsibility for where you are in life and have understand you have to power to change it.” </p></blockquote>
<p>These are all comments made to me… either via email… or Facebook… or my blog… talking about YOU…</p>
<p>… and what YOU can do to win “the game”.</p>
<p>They’re giving you the answers before the big test.  Stop making it so complicated.</p>
<p>So pay attention…</p>
<p>… and take care of the cooter.</p>
<p>Get Brad&#8217;s <a href="http://www.adoniseffect.com/sc_promo">Adonis Effect workout</a>. It will break your balls.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong>I was just reading Sinn’s “Swagger” column when I just got a thought. </strong></p>
<p>You see, I’ve never really told anyone my overall philosophy on attracting women.  Likewise, I realize that I’m probably not the best in the world at “the game”… nor do I want to be.</p>
<p>I’m an 80/20 guy.  (think 4 hour work week)</p>
<p>Here’s what I mean.</p>
<p>According to Pareto’s Principle, roughly 20% of your actions are going to make up 80% of your results in almost any situation… from work, to sports… and yes… even in your</p>
<p>Interactions with “the ladies”…</p>
<p>Likewise, roughly 20% of your results are going to be directly attributed to the other 80% of stuff.</p>
<p>If you want to be above average, finding the 20% that produces 80% of your results is all you need…</p>
<p>… and it takes less time.</p>
<p>If you want to be GREAT… (think the Michael Jordan of game), then you need to not only get your above average stuff in check… but you spend a lot MORE time on the other stuff… a LOT MORE.</p>
<p>Personally, being above average is fine for me.  I just like interacting and finding good chemistry with women.</p>
<p>I don’t care about trying to fuck every hot girl I lay my eyes on… but some people do.  It’s just too much work for something that just isn’t that important to me.</p>
<h2>Get Your “FLOW” In Check</h2>
<p>I call the 20% that gets you 80% your “Flow”</p>
<p>“Flow” is just like it sounds… which is why its such a great metaphor.</p>
<p>It’s unattached to a result… it’s flexible to any outcome.</p>
<p>It’s adaptable</p>
<p>It’s strong and torrent when it needs to be… yet, calm and relaxing as well.</p>
<p>In other words, someone with good “flow” is:</p>
<p>Confident and Secure – they don’t need to dominate every interaction to “prove” their worth, yet they can take control of a situation in a moment’s notice</p>
<p>Adaptable and Unattached – they have fun and mingle well with people, yet are unassuming with any particular outcome.</p>
<p>Good “Flow” is a manifestation of all of this.</p>
<p>Charisma is a form of good “flow”… but not all of it.</p>
<p>Just think of how water “flow” through cracks… around rocks… through tunnels.</p>
<p>It goes where it needs to go to get where its going.  It has no defined path.</p>
<p>Throw a rock in the river… it goes around it.</p>
<p>Here’s the kicker, women love to “ride” good “flow”… and I swear I’m not trying any sexual innuendo.</p>
<p>I may not be explaining my “flow” phenomenon in the best of terms… but if you sit back and think on it… you can see where I’m going with this.</p>
<p><strong>Bottom line:</strong>  First things first – Find your 20% that gets you 80%.  Then decide how “good” you want to be.  You may find that being GREAT with women, just isn’t worth it… like I did.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This article has some hidden meaning to it, see if you can figure it out&#8230;</p>
<p>I was talking to a friend of mine the other day&#8230; he&#8217;s actually a part owner of a personal training company and we were talking about the sheer lack of results that people get in their fitness programs.</p>
<p>We got looking at all of the people up on the cardio deck&#8230; when I laughed and said, <em>&#8220;You know, we could take snapshot of this cardio deck and take another one in 3 months and every single person up here would look the exact same&#8221;. </em></p>
<p>Naturally, he laughed and said,<em> &#8220;Yeah, I know&#8230; but everyone&#8217;s so rapped up in this aerobics craze that you really can&#8217;t get a word in edge wise&#8230; so many times, when we are training clients&#8230; we just end up giving them what they want&#8230; instead of what they need.&#8221; </em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Really?&#8221; </em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Yeah, most of the time&#8230; it&#8217;s MORE PROFITABLE to just go with the flow&#8230; instead of trying to reprogram a lot of the stuff that people are thinking. Nobody wants to feel like they don&#8217;t know what they are talking about&#8230;&#8221; </em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;WOW&#8230; I really had no idea,&#8221;</em> I said.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Now, don&#8217;t get me wrong&#8230; we eventually try to morph them over to the correct way of thinking&#8230; but most of our time&#8230; and our CLIENT&#8217;S MONEY&#8230; is spent on rearranging what our clients think. Sure, they get some results along the way&#8230; but if they&#8217;d just wipe the slate clean and embrace what we REALLY want to do&#8230; we could multiply their efforts by 10.&#8221; </em></p>
<p>I want you to think about that for a second… because it’s very profound.</p>
<p>Most of an experts time and money is being spent helping you UNLEARN what you’ve already learned.</p>
<p>And that roles across ALL self improvement industries… not just fitness and dating/seduction type stuff.</p>
<p>Think of the money you’d save if you could possibly LET GO of what you think you know… with no resistance.</p>
<p>Oh, and back to my conversation with the gentleman that owns the personal training company.<br />
<em><br />
&#8220;So what would you say to people that are really trying to get in shape&#8230; trying to get ripped&#8230;&#8221;, I asked. </em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;Tell them to quit whining and work their butts off&#8230; be more aggressive and push yourself like you&#8217;ve never pushed yourself before. Naturally, make sure you work your way into it&#8230; but in the end&#8230; workout like a freakin&#8217; maniac.&#8221; </em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><a href="http://www.seduction-chronicles.net/author/brad/"><img border="0" src="http://www.adoniseffect.com/images/ADONIS-EFFECT-LOGO.gif" alt="" align="left" /></a>You know, I’ve been doing a bunch of thinking about this over the last week since ‘ole <a href="http://www.seduction-chronicles.net/2008/04/22/ross-jeffries-vs-sean-messenger/">RJ told Sean he was getting women solely based on his looks</a>.</p>
<p>You see, if you’ve read anyone’s site… or products… or literature, the “marketing” dogma states that looks don’t matter.</p>
<p>But, when it comes down to it, you’ve got a guru that’s telling people that the only reason someone is getting women is because they look good.</p>
<p>So which is it?</p>
<p>Well, I’m gonna go ahead and drop the hammer on you:</p>
<p><strong>LOOKS MATTER</strong></p>
<p>BUT… they don’t matter as much as one might think.</p>
<p>In fact, I know quite a few men that are absolute model material, but they can’t talk to women to save their lives.  Quite frankly, women actually feel SORRY for them and laugh behind their backs.</p>
<p>That’s the truth.</p>
<p><strong>So what’s reality.</strong></p>
<p>Well, when I was doing prep work for the <a href="http://www.seduction-chronicles.net/adonis-effect/">Adonis Effect</a>, I had John send me all of the relevant research behind the program and I went through all of it.</p>
<p>From that, I created a little “research” video on a whim (the quality is not great, but it works), to show everyone what really DOES matter.</p>
<p>Yes… looks matter.</p>
<p>But, the biggest attraction generator by far is <strong>SOCIAL STATUS</strong>.</p>
<p>Not only can you see it through out your daily life, but the research proves it as well.  In fact, here are the top 4 “keys” to attraction:</p>
<p>1.	Social Status<br />
2.	Social Dominance<br />
3.	Physical Attractiveness<br />
4.	Physical Dominance</p>
<p>Check out this research video and tell me what you think… it’s all here.</p>
<p>(And by the way, although there is NO conflicting evidence on body type… there is TONS of conflicting evidence on ‘facial beauty’ and attractiveness… you’ll see)</p>
<p>Next week, I’ve have a “Rage” workout for you… a Fibonacci Progressive Superset that’ll likely make you puke</p>
