I second that this was really well said.

Another overlooked aspect is, by following the principles laid out in the book, you will allow yourself to have a much healthier dating life. It's a mindset change, not a concrete, rigid rule book. It doesn't guarantee you success with a specific woman.

You're going to have some ups and you're going to have some downs, but ultimately, you're going to be in a great position for yourself because you will have been approaching life and dating with a healthy mindset.

You'll be focusing on your mission, and other areas of your life too. You'll be much happier, and when things don't turn out the way you want, you will be able to look back at the situation with much more positivity.

I'm just looking at my own life, and the last woman that I went out with, I was really into her, and I got rejected from her, do I have any extreme regrets? Not really. Looking back, was I perfect? No, but I don't think that's realistic. I could reevaluate every little thing and think, "Well what if I instead said this, or did this", but honestly, none of the things stood out to me as a major screw up, I know I've acted in very similar ways with other women and had great success, I was acting in my natural, best self.

I'm happy with how I showed up. I felt happy at that time when I met and engaged with that woman, confident with where I was at in life at that moment. Overall, it just didn't go how I planned. And that does give me peace knowing that I feel like I did a lot of things well.
