...and running won't even do you any good. It'll only exhaust you.

I'm currently experiencing some domestic turbulence within my own household right now, and it's reminding me of a very important life lesson. Try as you might, but you can't fucking hide shit from the world, especially not from the people that are actually involved in your life.

Go ahead and try. Go ahead and go out in-field and say cocky and funny lines without actually having cockiness and humor as a part of your genuine personality. Go ahead and tell a story about saving your stripper ex-girlfriend from some chodes chasing her around when in reality you're a virgin who's never had a girlfriend. Go ahead and ask for a woman's opinion on something without actually caring about what her opinion is. Go ahead and try lying to people like that, but you won't succeed in convincing anyone of anything other than the absolute truth. Sure, once in a while you can TRICK someone into believing your lies, but somewhere down the road you're running on, you're going to trip and fall flat on your face... and who knows what kinds of debris will be on the ground of that road? The face you must show to the world may be forever scarred from glass and hot coals.

Pickup isn't about tricking anyone into anything. It's about becoming that awesome guy you've always envisioned yourself to be. You'll be attracting women left and right because you'll be expressing your genuine best self, not because you're hiding behind a mask. You'll be attracting as a result from giving that loving energy out to the world since you've got plenty of that feeling for yourself.

Being honest is a very scary thought, I know, but it isn't so scary when you've hit that point of becoming proud of yourself for something inside you, and not for something you've done or anything else outside of you. Sure, it can still be scary at times, but then there's that confidence that automatically comes with that pride of self-validation. Once you dive into the pool of honesty, it doesn't seem so scary anymore.

Most people look at PUA methods and see that as an opportunity to manipulate others into thinking you're something that you're not. Fucking stop that. I look at PUA methods and see an opportunity to express my core intent in an artistic manner. Pickup is an opportunity to express what's on the inside because that's basically what any ART is. That's what the "A" in PUA fucking stands for: Artist.

You're not going to make it by faking it. You have to develop your mentality and lifestyle through discipline and hardcore life experience until you reach a point where you can see yourself as "beautiful on the inside," as cheesy as that sounds. Only then can you really use Outer Game models in pickup to successfully pick up. Pick up yourself, your life, then pick up chicks. That's when you'll feel like you have some real control over your love life.

Hiding behind a mask is only going to give you a long laundry list of problems you've never imagined before. Let go of that ego and reveal your true self. Once you've done that, you're fucking free to move in whatever direction of change you wish to go.

A great and I believe much needed post there Chief

A lot of posts crop up when someone has come up with a DHV story (which may or may not apply to them) and others say they will use them (which definetly won't apply to them). If you continue to try to convey something you are not, you will never really gain the confidence many are looking for.
Its that moment when you convey what you really are and get the same result, you will gain the sense of comfortableness (might be a word, might not ) in your own skin. That is what I believe everyone in life truly strives to achieve if they have not already.

This is an extremely important post. The funny thing is that if I read this post, before I got into RSD, I would have said that it was stupid. However, I am really beginning to internalize the significance of being genuine. Authenticity is not only a profoundly attractive personality trait, but it also elevates one's happiness and core confidence.

Well done, Chief.

Nice post mate !

Firstly, u need to stop thinking so deep SPAM chief, ur gonna drown yourself

However, Again a very good post.

Good stuff!

I think the pre-constructed routines and lines are good for one thing, for rAFCs to get over their AA and get some more confidence.
I use my own routines, stuff I have experienced since starting the game, things that actually happened to me about 95% of the time.
As for the value demonstrating routines such as the ESP routine... They are just fun stuff to do to pass time.
After getting your game fixed, you will become a better man and more interesting and that alone will work for you.
There is no way of tricking anyone into having sex with you unless you say things like "Ill give you 100 bucks to suck me" and then dont do it. But thats very far from pickup!

Good post

Being genuine is really, really "hard" for me because I have an anxiety disorder. The disorder does not allow me to be who I truly am. I attempt to be who I am as much as possible but I am aware that the anxiety gives off a distorted picture of who I, Timothy (Slie), truly am.

And yeah, This is (still) just the beginning.

Awesome post, I think we all have somewhere an issue to show ourself "naked" to the world.
Think a bit and find a family or friend who is 100% true to himself and try to learn from him.
My great example is my dad, he's one of the less persons that I know who doesn't give a fuck what other people think about him, he's always himself.

Goodluck everybody with this journey!

Give your life order. You will no longer have a disorder.
