I have made a few mistakes where i was rejected and I did not know why. I did some research and read many books but am still unsuccessful. This is really messing up my self esteem.<\/p>\n<p>I am very good looking. Not that I&#8217;m bragging, but I am told this by many of my sister&#8217;s friends who are 26 years of age and over.<\/p>\n<p>To get to the point, I feel that reading these articles makes me feel insecure as if I require help, like a crazy person seeing a psychiatrist. and as a result girls can sense it somehow.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>How many mistakes do I have to make (roughly) until I get a girl?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Thanks,<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0D<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CARLOS WARNS OF AN IMPENDING SELF-ESTEEM CRASH:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The funny thing is that most guys out there assume that if you&#8217;re good looking, you&#8217;ve got it made with women. As you can tell, this just isn&#8217;t so.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;re having some problems, and I&#8217;m here to help.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You asked: How many mistakes do you need to make?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Well, the answer is &#8230; 43.5.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Okay, maybe it&#8217;s 7.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>How about 1,346?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Forget the numbers.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how you have to look at your situation:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTION<\/strong>: How many mistakes do you need to make?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>ANSWER: AS MANY AS IT TAKES.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t quantify the game of attraction. I can&#8217;t distill it into an easy prescription that I can write and tell you that if you make exactly <strong>X<\/strong> number of dates, you&#8217;ll get 1 girlfriend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It may take 1 mistake. It might take 500 mistakes. (It will take a <strong>LOT<\/strong> less if you study my e-books and these articles, I&#8217;ll tell you that right now.)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHO CARES<\/strong> how many it takes?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All that <strong>REALLY<\/strong> matters is that you <strong>MAKE<\/strong> those mistakes and get them out of the way now, so that you can get to that warm, happy place we all want to get to a lot faster. That&#8217;s the place where you understand how to interact with women to spark their romantic interest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All that <strong>REALLY<\/strong> matters is the kind of <strong>MAN<\/strong> you become in the process!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That warm, happy place that I speak of is called <strong>SUCCESS<\/strong>, my brothers. And there&#8217;s no feeling like it in the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If I told you it takes a <strong>THOUSAND<\/strong> mistakes, would that be more than you could handle? Would you give up? Run off and cry, maybe just forget about it and live alone for the rest of your life?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>NO<\/strong>. An Alpha Man would <strong>NEVER<\/strong> give up until he figured it out.\u00a0 Never!<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Remember the motto from the movie &#8220;Apollo 13&#8221;: &#8216;Failure is <strong>NOT<\/strong> an option!&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You seem to be shocked by the fact that women can sense your insecure mindset. Of course they can sense your feelings. Most guys understand how refined and heightened a woman&#8217;s radar is to guys who are insecure and lack confidence.\u00a0 It&#8217;s her &#8220;wimp&#8221; detector, and it serves her well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Women grew up interacting in very complex and intricate social situations with their other girlfriends, all while you were sitting home playing Nintendo, or sneaking peeks at your daddy&#8217;s Penthouse magazines. This refined &#8220;intuition&#8221; is how she keeps from getting hooked up with the real losers out there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What you&#8217;re doing, though, is making the wrong assumption from these other articles you&#8217;re reading. You assume that if there&#8217;s something you don&#8217;t know about yet, or a skill you don&#8217;t have yet, that means that you have a reason to feel inadequate. You&#8217;re reading things that point out what you need to work on, and you&#8217;re only looking at the negative side. You&#8217;re getting down on yourself as a result.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>EVERYONE<\/strong> has areas to improve in. No one is perfect.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Should you be depressed to find out you&#8217;ve got more work to do?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>NO!<\/strong> You should feel <strong>INVIGORATED<\/strong>. Energized! More work to do means you&#8217;ve still got more life to live. That&#8217;s something to be <strong>EXCITED<\/strong> about, not insecure. However, you are the only one who can choose that interpretation.<\/p>\n<p>So put away your hanky and stop crying. Get busy!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to write you a very strong prescription, Mr. Good-Looking-Guy-Without-a-Woman.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>FIRST:<\/strong> You need to stop looking at this all as work, and relax. I can tell from your letter that you&#8217;re taking the dating game too seriously. You&#8217;re discouraged, and that alone is something that women can smell on you like bad sushi.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chill out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>SECOND:<\/strong> Get to work on increasing your Alpha behaviors and vibe. You want to come across as a dominant man, not a guy who&#8217;s insecure and incompetent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I created my programs to help guys who are <strong>WAY<\/strong> too into the &#8220;I need to get a woman&#8221; part of the game and not enough into the &#8220;I need to get a life&#8221; part of the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Having a woman will never fulfill you if you aren&#8217;t a whole man in the first place. You&#8217;ll just fall into more and more self-defeating beliefs and behaviors. Work on your own self-development with audio programs and enriching literature.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Stop slipping down the hill of insecurity! Dig in and get some traction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>THIRD:<\/strong> You need to make a <strong>COMMITMENT<\/strong> to yourself to learn this game by going out and playing it. Sometimes you&#8217;ll win, sometimes you&#8217;ll learn something. (Notice I didn&#8217;t say &#8220;lose.&#8221;)\u00a0 Make mistakes; it&#8217;s the only way to win in the end.<\/p>\n<p>I got a letter once from one of my students, and it might be the most brilliant thing I&#8217;ve read all year. It said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t learn as much about myself, how to manage my emotions, how to interact with people, and how to bounce back from failure as I do when I crash and burn and fail.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Read that again about twenty times until it makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>Read it until you <strong>GET IT<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Until you slap your head and realize this Truth: It&#8217;s not how many mistakes you make. It&#8217;s how many times you make a mistake and <strong>KEEP ON TRYING<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QUESTION:<\/p>\n<p>I was interested in finding a girlfriend when I turned 18 last year November.
