<p>I know it is hard to believe, but I have not always been the Mack  that I am today. How to talk to women was something I never thought I  would be able to achieve.  There were so many lonely nights spent  watching Star Trek on late night television. In high school, I was never  the jock or the most popular guy. I was so envious when other guys  would talk about how they hooked up with this women and such. The  jealousy inside of me was so strong and it over took me. I just kept on  thinking negative things about myself. The funny thing is that if you  say you&#8217;re a loser in your head, then quickly you start to be condition  that this might actually be true. I thought there was no hope and  depression started to kick in.</p>
<p>After high school, I started to put  my foot down and told myself no more of this! Never again will I allow  myself to feel like this. From that day forward I made a conscious  effort to build up my confidence on how to talk to women. The first  decision I made was to move out of my comfort zone and go to a college  that was out of state. I wanted to go to a college where I knew none of  my high school friends or family will be there. My goal was to make a  clean fresh start. It is a great thing to change your life by simply  moving to another location. With this I had to develop my plan of  attack.</p>
<p>First thing before learning how to talk to women is that I  had to believe in myself. I was a complete train wreck. Always had  negative out look on everything. It was conditioned in my brain that I  should never attempt anything because eventually I will fail and be a  complete embarrassment. So I started reading all the great self-help  books from authors like Tony Robbins and Zig Ziglar. These two were one  of my favorites. Basically what I learned is that your brain is like a  computer software. Computer programmers will fix bugs and errors in  software all the time. Well your brain is like that. Whatever is bad in  your conscious mind can easily be reprogrammed. It was really great  stuff and changed the whole way I looked at myself.</p>
<p>Reprogramming  my inner self greatly improved my self confidence. Quickly I started to  believe and agreed that I was ready to learn how to talk to women. I  started to study all the materials about talking to women. There are  many great products online. Videos really helped out because I am a  visual person</p>
<p>I was ready now because of all this information  under my tool belt. It was time for me to graduate into the certified  Mack. My turn to be the Alpha Male of the group. My college buddies and I  went to the local hangout and it was magical! Everything I learned was  so true, I could not believe these products I read and studied actually  worked. Girls were just all over me that night. I said to myself, if I  only knew this when I was younger. But truthfully I think my past  experience is probably my best learning lessons. It showed me that there  are many men that were just like me and I made it my mission to teach  them what I learned. I would not be able to relate if I never had the  experience that I had.</p></div>
<div id="sig">
<p>So let this be the day that you take action. Tell yourself no  more lonely nights. I can too transform my brain. I want to learn <a href="http://howtomeetwomen.atlreport.com/" target="_new">how to talk to  women</a> today!</div>

<p>One from the most powerful and least used attraction techniques would be to be a great story teller. Women love the Alpha Males who can tell a great story,and make them laugh, even when they shouldn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>But most alpha males aren&#8217;t great story tellers, even when it is a learnable skill. What do they do incorrect?</p>
<p>They just simply give up because they believe their stories are boring. You see, details engage the thoughts, and concentrate it on what you are saying. Then, the woman you&#8217;re telling the story to can really &#8220;see&#8221; herself getting there.</p>
<p>For example,  I can tell a story about how I ate a really nice chocolate dessert for dinner last night.</p>
<p>But if I say, &#8220;The chocolate dessert was so good that I felt like I had an explosion of joy in mouth and can feel the goodness going down my throat&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>What&#8217;s the distinction within the mental images that come to your thoughts whenever you examine the above statements back to back? They&#8217;re vastly different, and 1 is significantly more detailed than the other.</p>
<p>Not just that, in the second description I use colorful, &#8220;story informing language&#8221;&#8211; you receive the idea there&#8217;s a lot more to come, and you want to know more about Bob and his obvious misadventures. Story informing is a really powerful attraction technique. Women adore males who can make them laugh on a constant and constant foundation, and very few men can. Story informing can also be a great vehicle for introducing sexual innuendo and obtaining women to believe such thoughts and link them to you.</p>
<p>Also, it&#8217;s a hell of a great deal of enjoyable. When you get great at informing stories, not only does your audience laugh, you laugh as well. All of a sudden attraction becomes a great deal of enjoyable, and it gets a lot easier. Allow it to be a stage to master the art of <a class="zem_slink" title="Storytelling" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storytelling">story telling</a>&#8230; it will provide you with an unfair advantage over other Beta Males</p>

<p>I know there is always lots of hype from these young rappers that claim to be a pimp.  Lets be real.  Pimping ain&#8217;t about <a title="make it rain" href="http://www.totalprosports.com/nfl/video-of-pacman-making-it-rain-at-strip-club/" target="_blank">making it rain</a>.   That ain&#8217;t pimpin that&#8217;s <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=simp" target="_blank">simpin</a>.  Let me repeat you might call yourself a pimp because you got lot of girls, but your simp if you spend money on these hoes.  So guess who just got pimped!!!  LOL, these hoes are the real the pimps for taking your cash out your pockets.</p>
<p>So now lets get back to the roots and find out how the pimp game really goes down.  So let me share with you a guy named <a rel="NOFOLLOW" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fentity%2FIceberg-Slim%2FB000APBNT2%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Dntt%255Fathr%255Fdp%255Fpel%255Fpop%255F1&amp;tag=tm025-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957" target="_blank">Iceberg Slim</a>.</p>
<p>From Wikipedia:</p>
<blockquote><p>Best known as an author of gritty tales of street life and hustling, Iceberg Slim (Robert Beck) sold over six million copies of his books, the most popular being Pimp: The Story of My Life. Since many authors before him had seen fit to record and release spoken word albums, Slim followed suit in 1976 with Reflections, which found him reciting his lurid vignettes over suitably funky backing from the Red Holloway Quartet. The street-tough pimp persona projected by Slim proved highly influential to hip-hop, especially two artists who paid tribute to him through their own names, Ice-T and Ice Cube. Slim passed away in 1992 at the age of 73.</p></blockquote>
<p>So you wanna find out how the real pimp game is?  Wanna know why people like ICE-T and Bishop Magic Don Juan honors.</p>
<p>Quotes from Iceberg Slim&#8217;s book:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: ARIAL; font-size: x-small;"><em>A good pimp doesn&#8217;t get paid for screwing. He gets his pay-off for always having the right thing to say to a whore right on lightning tap. I knew my four whores were flapping their ears to get my reaction to this beautiful bitch. A pimp with an overly fine bitch in his stable has to keep his game tight. Whores constantly probe for weakness in a pimp. </em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: ARIAL; font-size: x-small;"><em>I fitted a scary mask on my face and said, in a low, deadly voice, &#8220;Bitch, are you insane? No bitch in this family calls any shots or muscles me to do anything. Now take your stinking yellow ass upstairs to a bath and some shut-eye. Get in the street at noon like I told you.&#8221; </em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Courier; color: #ff3366; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #3300cc;">A pimp must be skilled at playing on a woman&#8217;s vulnerabilities. In fact, he assesses her psychological state to determine if she is a good candidate for exploitation. The true talents of a pimp however, are in his ability to keep his women happy, command money, and portray a deep mysterious and somewhat mean demeanor about him, one that conveys the message not to cross him. He is then said to be &#8220;cold-blooded,&#8221; able to turn off any warm feelings and loving affection in exchange for certain emotional and physical cruelty</span></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Courier; color: #ff3366; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #3300ff;">There are several rules that one must be willing to follow in order to be a successful pimp. The most paramount rule in the pimping game is, &#8220;the pimp must get paid&#8221;. This means there can&#8217;t be any &#8220;shame in your game</span></span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-family: Courier; color: #ff3366; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #3300ff;"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p>THis is some beautiful pimp shit. So i highly recommend you check out his book.<a href="http://blacksx.com/reviews/pimp-the-story-of-my-life/"> PIMP: The story of my life</a>. It&#8217;ll change the way you think about your approach with women.  This is what I mean when I talk about the <strong>ALPHA MALE </strong>type shit.</p>

<p>You want to buy a new ride?  Thinking about trading in that clunker.  Tired of your talking about your hooptie?</p>
<p>Well if you thinking about buying a car then now is the best time to buy.  Most dealers are trying to get rid of their 2009 year inventory to make room for the 2010.  On top of that some of these dealers haven&#8217;t met their end of year sales goal.  All this means is that you as  a buyer has the upper hand.  It&#8217;s time to get busy.  Read over these tips to prepare yourself in getting the best possible deal on your brand new whip.</p>
<p>1. Get a second opinion for the hype. Used car dealers will bombard you with every adjective under the book to sell you on a carsporty, thrifty, fast, and etc. Dont take their word for it. Instead, find someone you know, whether a neighbor, a colleague, a family member, or a friend, who owns the same make and model of the vehicle, and ask them for their opinion.</p>
<p>2. Do a background check. One of the most unethical, but legal, things someone can do to you is sell you a used car thats been in a flood (and sort of repaired), or one thats had 10 previous owners (none of whom repaired it). To be sure you dont fall victim to this, track down a history report, including a clearance check on the vehicle title. You can even get some of this information from the seller, simply by asking why they are selling it. Youd be surprised what beans people may spill.</p>
<p>3. Examine for past damage. Used car dealers may also try to peddle a vehicle that was wrecked in a major accident. Its amazing what autobody experts can do to repair a cars exterior. So dont go by the outer appearances of a vehicle. Before you buy it, make sure that it does not have serious damage to its frame, which it would have if it was involved in a crash.</p>
<p>4. Call up your trusted mechanic. Used car dealers, especially the big lots, will say they put their used cars through a 100 point inspection, or something like that. Once again, a second opinion is in order. Get this one from your own mechanic. Hell be able to tell how good a shape the car actually is in. Also be sure to ask him or her how often the car had been serviced. A good mechanic can even gauge that.</p>
<p>5. Research for recalls. Needless to say, a used car dealer may sell you a car thats actually under recall in his mad rush to get the car off his lot. So be sure to call the car manufacturer, or visit their Web site, to see if the vehicle has any active recalls.</p>
<p>6. Avoid the leftover lemon. Along with recalled vehicles, dealers may even perpetrate something much worse on yousell you a lemon. (By definition, a lemon is a car thats still under warranty, which has such major problems that, warranty or not, it still cannot be fixed in a reasonable way.) The best way to avoid this is to research in Consumer Reports or the various automobile magazines, which all have yearly reviews of every make and model on the market. Theyll tell you whether a kind of car is known for being a lemon and prone to breakdowns.</p>
<p>7. See through the old paint and bait. Along with performing their 100 point inspection, car dealers may shine and wax a used careven repaint itto hide dents, dings, and rust spots. A keen eye, though, can see right through this.</p>
<p>8. Take the test drive. Once youve done all your research, homework, extra credit, and everything else called for in the first seven steps, then comes the funthe test drive. Drive the car for as long as its owner or dealer will allow you. Then youll get a better feel for how the vehicle handles, accelerates, brakes, and otherwise suits your tastes (or doesnt).</p>
<p>9. Be wary of the pushy seller. At any stage of the gamefrom the moment you first talk to the seller to the test drivebe careful if the seller gets pushy. Any dealer or seller who is in a rush to move a vehicle should set off bells and whistles. Why the rush? Are they hiding something? In some cases the seller may just be excited to sell you the carand actually happy for youbut in many other cases, they may be up to something. Better be safe than sorry.</p>
<p>Remember your the alpha male, the king of the jungle.  You make sure that you leave happy and satisfied.</p>
<p>And Finally don&#8217;t be afraid to &#8220;<strong>WALKAWAY</strong>&#8221; if you have to.</p>

<p><strong>Product Description</strong></p>
<div>Men are losing their masculinity. Guys are urged to get in touch with their &#8220;feminine&#8221; side at the expense of the traditional attributes that make men &#8220;male.&#8221; Not only has &#8220;manliness&#8221; become a dirty word in a society of beta males and couch potatoes, but there&#8217;s actually less and less of it in the blood of too many American men, with studies showing declines in average testoterone levels over the past 20 years. Today&#8217;s men need a major adjustment of alpha attitude, and &#8220;Alpha Male Challenge&#8221; is the 10-week plan for reclaiming the masculine, competitive edge guys need to be on top of their game in every aspect of their lives. It&#8217;s the new blueprint for the &#8220;true&#8221; Alpha Male- the ideal of masculine excellence today. More than just another fitness book, this three-part exercise, diet, and mind-set overhaul features: the revolutionary MaleScale assessment questionnaire that measures the physical and mental traits that define the true Alpha Male; a step-by-step regimen to develop the Four C&#8217;s of Alpha Attitude: commitment, confidence, courage, and conscience; the Alpha Wave Basic Training program to build muscle, burn fat, and produce testosterone; the Work Heart/ Play Heart cardio system; and the Alpha Fuel Solution, a convenient approach to food and supplements with simple Fuel Rules based on what the human body was designed to eat over the past 2.5 million years, tweaked with cutting edge innovations. This is a straightforward instruction manual to build the kind of man these hard times demand: ruggedly powerful and supremely confident. It will help guys become more successful in their workouts, in their careers, and even in their relationships, as they learn to embody the everyday heroism of the true Alpha Male.</div>
