When you say you mastered 'How to win friends and influence people', what do you mean by that?

@Ramanujan Keep going bro . Game and social skills are a skillset. So apply what helps with developing skillsets. One thing to do is to focus on process goal rather than outcome goals. Process goals are goals that are totally within your control to achieve. For example, approach 3 people today. No one can stop you from approaching people. Outcome goals are not within your sole control to achieve. For example, get 3 phone numbers. This is not totally within your control to achieve. It requires her to act in a certain way. Setting process goals is much more beneficial to making progress. As it puts meeting your goals in your control. ---- Otherwise, its useful to reflect on what works, what didn't work, and what you could have done differently. Then keep experimenting with different things and reflecting, and your skills will improve.

The opposite of love isn't hate. Its indifference. When people really don't need other people they don't mention them. For example, you don't often hear people talking about how they don't need homeless people. Or take the unpopular kids at school, except for bullying. They aren't the subject of hatred, but indifference. So, these women who constantly emotionally voice that they don't need, or like a man really are often deluding themselves. Also, overall, what has happened recently is women have gained more power in society, and like every other empowered group in history, have started abusing that power in various ways.

I used to like Jiang, but then I saw leo doesn't like his views. So now i don't like his views. -- The main issue i find with Jiang is that he is more of a secondary learning resource. I did Law at university and you have primary and secondary readings there. The primary readings are all about giving you an overview and survey of the concepts, issues and different perspectives on a topic. For example. imagine a explaining the basics of a contract, and the different views on what contract law is about. The secondary readings are like a deep dive into one particular perspective. For example, a marxist view on contract. The issue with starting with secondary readings is its easy to get indoctrinated by the first reading you've come across. And many people online haven't gone through a primary resource, i.e. intro lecture, on the subjects he talks about. So they just end up getting indoctrinated with Jiang's views.

Bro come on lmao

Acquiring rare and valuable skills, and using them to help make the world a better place is one.

These women who hate men, and want nothing to do with them, sure spend a lot of time talking about men. Kinda makes you wonder .

I get ya man. Sorry I didn't mean it as an insult. I was just fucking around.

Any further users that challenge the idea of using conversation frameworks will be sentenced to the naughty step . Dissent will not be tolerated.

I know you see my mind as very clever and complex. But what i'm asking for is pretty straightforward .

@aurum You sassier than my lil sister

I like that you are talking about the validity of anger. However, its too black-or-white to tell people to stop running from anger or negative emotions in their environment. I'm concerned that could lead to people staying in dangerous or abusive situations.

@aurum I get where you're coming from. People do you use frameworks as a way of manipulating people, and can put people in their head. However, we use frameworks every day in conversation to help us. For example, introduce ourselves --> Make small talk --> Go deeper. And we all have a specific outcome in mind when conversing. For example, i want us to have a fun conversation where we both learn about each other. If we wanted no outcome, we wouldn't ever talk to them.
