Pick Up is NOT a Skill
Here’s one of the biggest myths that’s been circulating for years: that picking up women is a skill and that it can be learned through studying it.
It took me years to figure this out, but that’s not true.
Think about it. The analogies that are usually used is that picking up women is like playing piano or learning a language. If you study it enough, you’ll eventually be able to do it.
But really what is the “skill” involved in meeting and dating a lot of women?
Speaking? Moving your feet? Having sexual feelings and emotions?
These are all things that you’ve had and been able to do your whole life.
THERE’S NOTHING TO LEARN
This is one of the most important and profound realizations that I’ve ever had in all of my years of coaching: pick up is not a skill that is learned… it’s a habit that is practiced.
You already know how to speak to a girl, you just haven’t created a habit of it. You already know how to be sexual, you just haven’t made a habit of it.
Seduction is less like learning to play piano (takes years of study and work), and more like training yourself to write with your left-hand if you were born right-handed. You “know” how to do it already, it’s just that you’ve never done it before, so you’re fighting through a lifetime of bad habits.
I have more thoughts about this than I can fit into this email, so I sat down and wrote a full 30-page PDF report on this realization and how it’s effected my ability with women. You can download it for free at this link (no email required):
