They are now called SMC "Self mastery Co". From what I can tell, its mostly Owen's youtube as the main marketing, and a team of staff (SMC) running the business end of things.

@NoSelfSelf yes

I've been cold approaching for the last year and a half pretty consistently 1-3 days a week, usually 1 day per week after my last relationship. I've been working on my inner game for about 10 years and consider myself decently mentally healthy. Since my last relationship, I've made almost no effort on dating apps. Been trying to meet people only through approaching. In the last year and a half, I've made out with close to 20 women, and been on dates with 7 women , some of them multiple dates and still seeing one. My self esteem is fine. I don't think cold approach causes low self esteem, but it will trigger your already existing low self esteem when you get rejected if you don't manage your state and emotions. It doesn't bother me, I expect rejection and don't take it personally. Most rejections end with us both smiling because she has a bf or something. Ya its easy to forget about your low self esteem when your hiding from anything that triggers you. Cold approach reveals it. Im not saying Im perfect, or don't have times when I feel bad, but it passes within a few minutes, hours or couple of days as long as Im doing emotional work and then I'm back to normal. Im sure if I continue, that my dating results will improve with time. The dudes in your examples have issues to begin with and don't want to face them. Thats probably the bigger issue. The guy went to jail for threatening murder and the videos hardly seem like an approach that's inviting romance , more so a debate on veganism being bad. Which is fine in sprinkles, but not as the whole conversation. You have to be smart with cold approach, you cant just be a monkey spamming the same location with cringy vibes forever.

I kinda agree that working on the internal while doing cold approach should be a priority.. More importantly this sense of inadequacy. I found when I feel bad about myself and there was no one to listen to me, I tuned inside, closed my eyes and tried to identify the feelings I am needing, the needs I have that aren't being met and feeling that kinesthetically. And imagine a conversation in my head with the person I wish was there to comfort me and meet my emotional needs and I would rub my arm or torso as if it was them to comfort myself while I told my frustrations to this person and they validated every thing I was feeling until the pain faded away. In other words, you imagine someone meeting your emotional needs and learn how to self validate yourself. This can help you be happier and be healing. You don't want to tell women all your emotional traumas or problems, but its ok to do this privately in your head to connect with yourself and heal. In the video when she was going to walk away and the way you said "You're just going to let love slip away like this?" It shows desperation, frustration, and can scare a woman and put her on guard. There's many women, and if you approach her like she's the last woman on earth , she's going to see you have no options. Towards the end of the video, you started to relax and talk about things you are more passionate about and that's good. Overall, the approach was ballsy and I salute you for that. When you run up to a girl, try to slow down a little right when you're getting close to her and walk past and turn to her so she doesn't get the feeling that its an emergency. You want to give her the vibe that you are a safe, fun and an enjoyable person to be around. Dont tell her this unless its in a playful tone, become it and show it to her. Its like Owen Cook says " if you can masturbate, then you can change your state enough to get aroused and cum to pixels on a screen or an image in your head. So if you can do that, you also have the power to control your state so you are fun and charismatic and thinking about things that are fun to you. " This is easier after trauma release work, but can be something you work on now. Instead of approaching a woman from a place of extracting love from her, realize your internal state has been like a dry well that you could be filling up through things like the exercise I mentioned at the beginning and other trauma healing exercises. Focus on the good in your life, and goals that feel good to you. Take this as a long term game, 27 is not old. You're definitely going to be fine, but do the work. A woman will NOT complete you. Love yourself.

Damn , some people just cant be helped lol

I have had experiences like that, maybe 6 months dry spells.. where despite my efforts in game I didn't get past 2nd base.. a lot of close ones. To be relatable, I understand the feeling of like feeling Im never going to get laid again and blaming myself or women. Im almost 30 and experienced that many times, and it has eventually always happened again. Been seeing two new girls in the last month and a half .. but I've been putting in the work for the last year and a half. It seems like its getting easier and could happen even more often. Anyway, the thing that changed things most for me is working on my mindset and being okay whether or not it happens and reminding myself constantly that its okay and I'm valuable either way. 25 is not old. You underestimate how much you can change if you put in the work internally and externally. The process can be enjoyable, I've made a lot of guy friends through learning game too. Its okay to feel down, but see it for what it is , just a feeling and temporary perspective.

@Schizophonia because it quickly makes a 10 feel like a 7 or 6

Just remember that pretty girls fart, shit, get diarhea and vomit. It'll help centre your mind.

I used to have a job good for listening to audiobooks. I got an Audible membership and listens to very many books. You could pick good titles from Leos book list about whatever you're struggling with.

I think Owen would come around. He seems to try to forgive everyone. Especially someone high consciousness like Leo. That video was a long time ago and Owen would probably disagree with things he did in the past.

If Leo could get on Joe Rogans podcast I think it would be epic. Leo has a lot of out there perspectives that would be interesting for his audience. It’s just getting their team onboard

"No, try to become that mindset. Practice it at all times so it starts to become who you are. Women can also sense wanababe's. You probably don't have to work that hard, though, with a name like Fabio. lol. That's a player's name..hehe." @Princess Arabia Hah thanks.. Some friends say "make up a nickname" and Im like "I dont need to, they already don't believe its my real name and want to see my ID lol"

A noble goal. Thanks. The irony is , if another girl wanted to hook up that same night, it would have felt like a chore hahahaha, But I'll try to get that mindset at the beginning of the night.

lol ya I mean thats ideal. From a couple of minutes of watching his other video, it seems he's already known by a lot of people and lives this life style. Seen as high as status in his community and has a relaxed confidence, and truly has a ton of options. Ya, when your game is that good, dress good and you're making good money, and you actually care less whether the next girl works out, it becomes easy mode. For 95% of guys on this forum who aren't extroverted or experienced, this will be like a 5 year goal if they work hard. Its not something you execute smoothly without experience by just watching a video lol. Though it can happen by accident on a good night out here and there. One night I hooked up with a girl, and went back to the bar 10 minutes later and like 3 girls approached me. I wasn't that attracted, but it was unusual. I could swear they could smell the natural perfume the last girl left on me and how little I cared about getting them. One was like trying hard. Another made out. haha. Its weird. Not my average night out currently. I take this post more as a vision board of how you'd like to be approached by your dream pre-selected alpha lol.

Try this one. Its kinda geared a bit more for sales, but its still relevant and carries over to other areas of life. Try the exercises at home with the video to get the most value out of it. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1005899459919129&ref=sharing I wrote in notes that there is some exercises around 1:22:00 . There is more parts of the video that he does other exercises. The point is not to talk like this all the time, its so you can if you want to.
