George Leonard's "Mastery" -- The New Eckhart Tolle

Hopefully I've got your attention...... :)

So one of the things I was really happy about in the past year was how we were able to get Eckhart Tolle's work into the PUA mainstream.

Tolle is one of my favourite people in the world, and I say that because he is one of the few people I have ever encountered who does not appear to have any agenda other than making the world a better place.

By coincidence, his book is also a basically a lengthy explaination of "being in the now" -- which is one of the most vital concepts that you must not only understand but INTERNALIZE if you want to be a natural with women.

Now having seen the spread of that, there is another book which I've recently read that I would love to pump in the realm of RSD.

That book is "Mastery" by George Leonard.

This is a book that is very much parallel to the years worth of articles I've written on "Implementing A Habit" and in the DVD/CD set "Transformations".

One of the concepts that I continually pound into the heads of students during bootcamps is the need for a long term habit implementation strategy.

This is vital.

In fact, it is hands down the biggest difference between those students who fail and those who succeed.

I remember back when I first got into teaching success with women.

My belief back then was that if I could cultivate the ultimate skill set with women that I could demonstrate it, and then students could immediately model and replicate it.

This worked consistently in the short term but sometimes failed to produce the long term results that I always wanted.

Several times a year I'd bump into ex students on the street who were ON FIRE during the program but hadn't maintained the habit ever since. This drove me to a level of exasperation you cannot imagine if you haven't experienced it yourself.

(Bear in mind I also bumped into a lot more who DID follow through -- but just seeing those who didn't would absolutely f**k up my day).


Later I focused on the teaching aspect, in terms of developing more effective ways of getting the information from MY head into the mind of the student -- as well as lowering the student/instructor ratio to 3 on 1.

This produced an even more consistent level of results but I'd still have those odd cases where I'd bump into students who didn't follow through.

Finally I arrived where I've been at for the past two years, where I created self-development material which can then be synergized with the pick-up stuff in order to emphasize the path that's required to achieve long term results.

This has been great and the 6 month follow up phone calls have yielded the highest percentage of long term transformations I've ever seen.

However now having found George Leonard's book "Mastery" I feel a need for celebration -- because the average 3 hours that I'd normally spend on bootcamp teaching long term habit implementation is now laid out beautifully in one simple and elegant book (and I can just refer people directly to this book -- which allows me to cut that time from 3 hours to 1 hour and then use the extra time to teach other things).

Do you want a secret window into the types of topics I've covered in some of the most results-producing bootcamps I've ever run??

Read "Mastery" by George Leonard.

For me this book is elementary and obviously didn't produce the kind of epiphanies that I had while reading Eckhart Tolle. I've been doing this stuff my entire career.

But my excitement in this case stems from what STUDENTS can get out of it.

If you are someone who has never walked the path from novice to total mastery over several years then this book is a MUST READ.

And if you are someone who has walked that path many times over, then you will respect the straightforward way in which he's articulated it.

It is quick and easy read, and will teach you key elements like:

-How to ride out a plateau

-How to enjoy the process over the outcome

-How to be a long term winner and not be brainwashed by the anti-mastery attitudes of society (people who've seen my section in "Transformations" will see the parallels here).

If this sounds cool, that's because it is, in fact, very cool.

I give this book my highest recommendation for anyone learning how to better themselves and get crazy awesome results with girls -- so be absolutely sure to check it out.

Have fun!!
