How To Be More Attractive to Women: The Traits Men Need to Build That No One Ever Tells Them Often we spend our lives making mistakes that are obvious to others that are hampering our success, but no one tells us what these mistakes are. Either out of politeness, or simply because they do not care, or for other reasons. This book is going to objectively look at all the aspects of a man that a woman considers attractive. And by that I mean viscerally attractive. NOT things that women merely say are attractive but don’t actually behave that way (e.g. how nice you are). NOT things that women settle for when it’s time to marry simply because it “makes more sense” (e.g. a woman marrying a boring unattractive man because he provides stability). Attraction refers to women being physically attracted to you. Her wanting to break all her rules for you. Her wanting to have casual sex with you. Her “not being able to help it” because the attraction is coming from her subconscious reptilian brain and not her rational brain. GET THE BOOK: amazon.com/How-Be-More-Attra…

When you suspect you are in the presence of an infector, don’t argue, don’t try to help, don’t pass the person on to your friends, or you will become enmeshed. Flee the infector’s presence or suffer the consequences.

Those misfortunates among us who have been brought down by circumstances beyond their control deserve all the help and sympathy we can give them. But there are others who draw it upon themselves by their destructive actions and unsettling effect on others.

Humans are extremely susceptible to the moods, emotions, and even the ways of thinking of those with whom they spend their time.

Understand this: In the game of power, the people you associate with are critical.

The answer lies in judging people on the effects they have on the world and not on the reasons they give for their problems.

Infectors can be recognized by the misfortune they draw on themselves, their turbulent past, their long line of broken relationships, their unstable careers, and the very force of their character, which sweeps you up and makes you lose your reason.

There are people who attract happiness to themselves by their good cheer, natural buoyancy, and intelligence. They are a source of pleasure, and you must associate with them to share in the prosperity they draw upon themselves.

If you are miserly by nature, you will never go beyond a certain limit; only generous souls attain greatness.

Associate with the generous, then, and they will infect you, opening up everything that is tight and restricted in you. If you are gloomy, gravitate to the cheerful. If you are prone to isolation, force yourself to befriend the gregarious.

Never associate with those who share your defects — they will reinforce everything that holds you back. Only create associations with positive affinities. Make this a rule of life and you will benefit more than from all the therapy in the world.

There is nothing to be gained by associating with those who infect you with their misery; there is only power and good fortune to be obtained by associating with the fortunate.

Recognize the fortunate so that you may choose their company, and the unfortunate so that you may avoid them. Misfortune is usually the crime of folly, and among those who suffer from it there is no malady more contagious: Never open your door to the least of misfortunes.

Humans are extremely susceptible to the moods, emotions, and even the ways of thinking of those with whom they spend their time. The incurably unhappy and unstable have a particularly strong infecting power because their characters and emotions are so intense.

When aiming for power, or trying to conserve it, always look for the indirect route. And also choose your battles carefully.

If it does not matter in the long run whether the other person agrees with you — or if time and their own experience will make them understand what you mean — then it is best not even to bother with a demonstration. Save your energy and walk away.

Verbal argument has one vital use in the realm of power: To distract and cover your tracks when you are practicing deception or are caught in a lie. In such cases it is to your advantage to argue with all the conviction you can muster.

When caught in a lie, the more emotional and certain you appear, the less likely it seems that you are lying.

Half of the game is learning how to forget those events in the past that eat away at you and cloud your reason.

If you are trying to destroy an enemy who has hurt you, far better to keep him off-guard by feigning friendliness than showing your anger.

Anger is the most destructive of emotional responses, for it clouds your vision the most. It also has a ripple effect that invariably makes situations less controllable and heightens your enemy's resolve.
