Woman love power. That is a scientific fact. If you haven’t already read Robert Greene’s 48 Laws of Power I would highly suggest checking it out. In the mean time here is a quick list I got from Gambler of Pua Training on how to be a more powerful man.

Everything on this list is true. And I don’t believe that you should be doing these things solely to pick up women. You should be doing them because these are the kind of things that will lead to a more fulfilling life altogether.

Tips for Being a Powerful Man by Richard La Ruina

1. Take the Lead

“Can I have your number?” “Are you free on Wednesday?” “How about Tuesday?” “What time?” “What would you like to do?” Asking these questions transfers the decision-making power from you to her and they are the kinds of questions that get asked before the first date. Not good. Try these kinds of questions instead: “I’m hungry, let’s get something to eat”. “We should hang out, give me your number.” “I’m going to watch a film, you should come.” Can you see the difference? There’s no supplication here, is there? You’re not even really asking - you’re leading her politely, giving her an opportunity to join you in your fun life.

2. Have Other Passions

Make sure that you have interests. Make sure you have friends that you care about. Don’t abandon all that when you meet an attractive girl. They are part of the equation that makes you attractive in the first place.

3. Have a Purpose

Be ambitious. Have goals. Know what you’re doing in life. People who wander around aimlessly or give away everything for a woman are not attractive. Decisive people on a mission are attractive. Be one.

4. Be High Status

I was reading a scientific report the other day and it confirmed something I’ve known for ages: men go for looks, women go for status. It’s primal: women look for a man who can provide a secure environment for their children. That doesn’t mean you have to be loaded. It means you should be confident, strong-willed, prepared to walk away, and able to set the agenda. High status males turn women on. Be one.

5. Don’t Change Who You Are

This is really important. You need to be confident enough in yourself not to change anything. If she says she doesn’t like something about you - your music, fashion sense, taste in films, whatever - listen to her point-of-view but don’t change your whole life based on. If you agree with her criticism, make changes. If you don’t, you shouldn’t change a thing. Half of the fun for a woman is trying to change you into her “dream man.” She wants the challenge of taming you and changing you - but it is just that, the challenge, that she likes. She’ll get bored very easily if you roll over without a fight.

So there we have it - five tips that will help you maintain your status and, more importantly, your attractiveness to your target. Feel free to drop me a line if you’ve got any questions. A lot of this comes from your beliefs and mindset, my ebook is part of a wider home study course that basically gives you a shortcut on the results that it took me months to get. That’s right, in 3 months time you could have a the love life that you desire, it’s been done before, by guys just like you, you just need to take action.

Until next time,
