Let's be real here, running game is pretty difficult, there's so much going on around you and just thinking of what to say next and just being in the moment consumes pretty much the majority of your entire attention span.

I want to talk about two things here that I think will drastically increase the effectiveness of your game, I'm doing some financial analysis work at the moment here so pardon my metaphor, but let's try and reduce debt and increase equity.

Comparing me to the average guy, in terms of our attention and the amount of information we can process, it's limited and while my situational awareness is much higher than the average guy, that comes with experience. So the question is, where can we still add to our game and where can we eliminate clutter?

I've definitely mentioned this a plethora times for newbies, but if you're still getting bad AA, then you should focus on that and nothing else. The first time I opened a set, it just seemed to overwhelming. 

1. Be sure not to peck

2. Be sure to come in at high energy

3. Go in over the shoulder

4 . Apply Push Pull concepts

5. So on so forth.

The list was absolutely huge and in retrospect, I can definitely see why there was such little progress in my first couple weeks, I was trying to shove too much content down my throat. Again, ELIMINATE attention vampires, tackle each part of your game one piece at a time. It wasn't until Matador had me run that ridiculous opener for over 50 sets that I finally put my AA at ease.

I'm a firm believer in Neil Strauss's 20% rule, with every set that you do, work on pushing the set 20% farther than you're comfortable. On given night, you should be focusing on working on one or two specific sticking points, even if it comes at the expense of other parts of your game. 

For example, when I started working on my D (direct interest) phase game, it was very difficult to hone without coming at the expense of my C phase (well, for at least for me personally). Approach Anxiety is pretty easy to chip away at, you can approach 15 sets in less than an hour whereas when you're trying to push your D phase game and you're following your system, you're only going to get to maybe 2-3 TOPS per night and it's very difficult to overcome your sexual anxiety if you don't rush your C phase game in attempts to getting closer to 5-6 sets in and start making those aggressive moves. So when you're still learning, don't be afraid to screw sets up, as long as you're LEARNING from them. If you screw up dozen kisses but gain situational awareness and overcome your sexual anxiety, it was totally worth it. Again, I had to eliminate a little clutter from my C phase game in order to ensure that my D phase game fell into place. Granted, your game won't be as solid in the short term, but in the long run, you're much better off, think of it as an initial investment.

what are you doing to get prepared? Definitely read my previous post on getting into state. I used to play tennis pretty competitively and before every single match, there was at least two hours of preparation beforehand in which I would properly prep my diet, equipment, mental state, etc. A ton of PUAs I see will just roll out of their bed after watching 3 hours of television and start sarging. Your experience in the club is only as effective as you make it out to be. Really ask yourself before you go out:

1. Are you feeling energetic? Did you get proper rest the night before?

2. Did you take steps to get yourself in a good mood beforehand?

3. You got good looking girls and a good entourage rollin up with you?
4. When you got into the club, did you properly do your kickstart(warming up)? 

5. Have you been actively increasing your passive value (wardrobe, working out)?

6. Have you been working on proper posture and body language so that it's autopilot infield?

While these things may not seem too important individually, if you've got your ducks lined up beforehand, it makes your job so much easier when you're out in field. Remember, pick up is a competitive sport, you really need to ask yourself what you've done so that you'll be able to exploit your competition.
