I'm a 17 year old boy in high school. I picked up a copy of the game in 8th grade, more for the love of psychology rather than women, don't get me wrong i love women, but i love understanding human behavior more. So i applied mysteries methods, and bought the numerous other products out there. But i didn't just read, i read and applied. I didn't start the game with Alpha i was just an AFC. Well i started experimenting not only with talking, but changing my whole personality to find my best fit. Well anyways it was a long process, but success has been achieved. Ive played with tits in class, and had 10's try to get me. So if your new, the game definitely works, but i wouldn't advocate buying all the different products, but it is more convenient if you don't want to the research. Well anyways what i believed are my discoveries, there probably not new ideas but i never read them myself so who knows.
Confidence, well to be honest some say to play recordings to talk positively to yourself. I believe this is counter intuitive because it forces your mind to accept that you have low self esteem and really ( at least for me gives me an adrenaline boost that is actually impeding of game )

sorry didnt finish but instead of pumping up your ego you should just let your thoughts go. for example when i have thoughts about what i am going to say to somebody i realize im having beta thoughts and Egotistic thoughts and i clear my mind by focusing on my enviorment. To be honest this has resulted in a natural increase in alpha behaviors. Whenever i have thought about what i want to do with women i realize this is beta thinking and i clear my mind. It is not battling your thoughts and dont get frustrated if they keep coming back. It actually doesnt take that long to let these thoughts go. It depends if you fight them or not. Fighting them does the opposite effect, just accepting them and just focusing on the world around you will eventually reprogram yourself to let go of these thoughts. This has been the biggest help to my game. The theory i have come up with ( not taking credit tho ) is that thoughts about what you want or should create anxiety. learning how to control your mind is the one of the best things you can do.

Another thing i figured out is that if you force your shoulders back and up you get a lot more shit from other Alphas, than if you chill with you shoulders back and down, and you still get female attention, even more as it looks more natural.

The things that have helped me most are ( i forget the sources )
alpha traits
eye contact theory ( don't break contact first or get nervous )
smiling -not fake tho-
if a girl talks to someone else you leave or talk to someone else
negs
--------- remember if you have low self esteem you probably earned it by not trying your hardest.


The reason i wrote this is to get feedback and see if anyone likes my ideas
