Legit Great Book on Attraction
Here's my opinion, take it for what it's worth... I would recommend this book based on my experience, and I think it is great for beginners to intermediate.** Warning this is a long review, apologies for the typos, grammar, no apologies for this being a personal opinion **I found this book after a long journey. And it could have saved me some time. And money.I've taken two separate workshops with two 'pickup industry veterans', one was known as Juggler, the other to remain unnamed. Both were good, from a general view as they forced me (or rather, I forced myself) to re-acquaint myself with who I was, and what kind of values I held, and made me a little more skilled at attracting the other sex. These were better than reading books. But if you only had to get a book, then this is the book I would recommend.This was my journey, and I think it's normal ...1. When you're in your early (I said twenties but really, any age really), and have 'no clue', or rather, 'think you have a clue' ("but really have no clue") one might start trying to solve their situation by turning to friends, female friends, relatives etc.2. In this day and age, being a man who can't get laid regularly seems to be something no seemingly happy male wants to admit to, like depression, or mental illness etc.3. The place that most young (or not so young) males then look (naturally), is the Internet. Problem is ... on the Internet, anyone can be an expert. In fact, some of the stuff, (and you'll be looking at the free and pirated stuff first) is definitely tacky, crappy, and at worst, sometimes misogynistic, sexist, psychopathic ....4. Guys 'learn' this new way, which results in 'results' that are false-positives. I.e. People confuse 'tactics' and 'routines' and whatever psycho-babble for being responsible for the results they are getting, when really, most are getting results from just getting out more and making an effort to meet girls. This gets tiring. And in retrospect, is embarrassing ... it's like being able to start a car, find yourself on a freeway ... and then crash because you don't know how to merge into her 'ok, you look ok, and are kind of funny/interesting/intriguing/ what are you really about? I'll let you know me if you share something of substance (that's not about Elvis's blue hair, or who lies more etc). i am exaggerating here, but it's true ....5. If you are tired of the above, enter phase two. You bother to pony up and pay for a workshop, especially with a good 'guru', then chances are you will actually get better results. Hell you'd better, know how much it costs to see Wayne Elise for a weekend? As the teacher will be able to guide you, calibrate you, correct you, and provide feedback. Also, a lot of teachers are a lot more 'natural' in their processes, than they would have you believe from reading all their manuals which in some cases are hilariously convoluted ... (By the way, Wayne is great)6. This is not to say these models are not useful, it's just ... it's not a wholesome understanding living in theory land.7. After you do a workshop or two, you'll definitely have results ... if only for ... 'I cannot believe I paid this much money, I MUST achieve results, and this SEEMS to be the way, I will definitely APPLY these skills...' And those skills will be useful. But do not forget that by now you are experienced, you have a skillset (no matter what doctrine, or method, or philosophy), some measure of confidence ... and real motivation!8. Hopefully, A few girlfriends later, you'll be a bit more experienced, and wonder ... I wonder if I could have avoided such an expensive route?orI would like to keep a refresher on the concepts I learnt at these bootcamps, but studying notes are a bit dorkish, and I'd like an enjoyable read from someone that seems to know what they are talking about (and you may be able to tell now, with more experience under your belt) that might give me some more insight ... and preferably someone that I would like to imagine I would like as a person, if I ever met them.This is that book I have been looking for - and one I would recommend to a younger nephew looking to 'get in', or to an beginner to intermediate guy like me.Now that I've matured into seeing the process as something more than 'a game', I was after a refresher. Something that wasn't too serious, and something that wasn't immature.Enter 'Models', which seems a strange title. I heard about it on a seduction forum, knew the guy had a blog, liked his writing, had a look, ordered it ... I really liked this book, as the author seems a genuine level headed guy who likes to meet women, is good at it, and seems to genuinely like, and appreciate women - without bitterness or cynicism.I like that It's well laid out in terms of the progression of topics, the author is a good enough writer (I though he was very good actually, in distilling some quite complicated concepts), it's not too short, and he writes with some good backstories, woven into some firm recommendations for putting together your own dating action plan. Which like all good attraction books, makes it a workbook as well as a textbook.Criticisms that this book suffers from grammar or typos probably arise from the fact this book looks like it was put together by a one-man band in Word. In response, I would point out that I enjoyed the book, and with time, I trust/hope he'll make revisions to keep improving it. In a way, I could have avoided one of my 'bootcamps' had this book been out then, and had I applied the suggestions recommended within.Postscript, and a little about me: I was at University at the time I took these bootcamps cited above, eager to sort out my dating life, took a while afterwards but it worked ... had my first gf, she being a your medical graduate, then another Dr graduate for a long while, then most recently, a french doctor (doctors and french girls seem to like me for some strange reason!). I was friendly with the PUA teacher on my second bootcamp, held here in my local country, ended up interning for him and attending all sorts of 'Seduction Conventions' where I saw the best and worst of the people that the 'seduction industry' have to offer. Hilarious stuff too. One guy teaching a course was a retired accountant who dyed his hair purple, put out porn dvds with 'hypnotherapy' ambient subcommands embedded into the stereo mix .... Another was a 17 year old kid that brought his girlfriend over, as part of his powerpoint exhibit, to show the whole crowd what success he was having with his own patented system. It sounds funny, and kind of pathetic - but I'm not going to judge. The audience, me, I was pathetic too. A range of 18 to 70 year old men (that's right, senior citizens not getting any were here too) that were being sold the world on 'how to interrupt 4 sets and get that model'. And all the people in that audience, i thought, might get more value from a big man hug, a raisin oatmeal biscuit with warm milk, and a friendly counselling session from that kind of mythical hairy chested uncle that other families have that is a registered pants-man with moustache and bear-fighting history etc.Anyhow, I'm happy, I'm now now longer .... well ... a virgin, I'm semi-competent with girls, having had a few flings, and a few gfs, and actually have a dating life that looks after itself. If I could describe the whole process, it was a journey, and more than anything kind of a 'how can others know you, if you don't even know yourself' kind of thing .... that is what I would have said to myself back then. And that is ... to sum up, why I liked the book. It asks you to be honest with yourself, and it prompts some self-development. Anyhow, be careful out there. People can get stuck ... I know people stuck in total mindgames about this 'game', who instead of working on themselves, walk around with a whole new set of ideas that have not given them the results they wanted. I think this guy wrote a good book, for beginners and for intermediates ... with some cool insights ... so I am going out of my way to write him a good review.

Great book, a must read for anyone man struggling to understand dating and attraction.
Models:Attract women through honesty is a comprehensive and to the point guide on dating and also life in general. Manson explains that true attraction isn't a game or skill set to be learned but a mindset and lifestyle to strive for. Obtaining this mindset and lifestyle are the goals of the man who is seeking to improve himself therefore improve his connection and attraction with women. This is not easily done and requires and honest look at oneself and ones intentions.Models gives an introductory education into these ideas and an awareness into where we may need to look deeper into ourselves if we are to become more authentic and thus create more attraction. Models gives helpful advice on how to dress, how to hold interesting conversations, become more interesting, how and where to take girls on dates and a great chapter on the dating process and escalating with women. Seriously useful information.However, Models does not give a detailed structured program that is comprehensive, for that you will need to go the website and buy a subscription to Manson's online programs. The website programs do not have a listed price and unfortunately after a few attempts at obtaining the price via the email link on his website Mr Manson has failed to respond, which I found disappointing.That is not to say the book isn't a useful guide, only that some of us may need more work and that will require more information. If you can't afford the online programs then the next best thing in my opinion is to read books on subjects that will increase your education on lifestyle improvements. Most books can be borrowed from a library so the costs are are minimal.I will provide a list of a few of the resources that have helped me to recreate my life over the last few years and hopefully they can help you to.1. Awaken The Giant Within - Tony Robbins (Understand what drives us to act and what thinking patterns inhibit our happiness and success)2. Non-violent Communication - Marshall B Rosenberg (Improves our integrity and compassion and fosters true connection through communication)3. No More Mr Nice Guy - Dr Robert Glover (Also recommended by Mark Manson as a fundamental resource)4. The Way of the Superior Man - David Deida (Also recommended by Mark Manson)5. The Art of Manliness - ( a man's guide to understanding manners and etiquette in the modern era)6.12 Step recovery groups and Mens Groups. ( A powerful and safe way to discover more about yourself)7. Therapists and Counsellors. (Self - explanatory)Well that is my review i hope it was helpful.This is my first ever review and i would like to hear if was helpful or where it could be improved.Good luck on the journey to becoming an attractive man, God and woman know the world needs more of us.
