I recently finished reading Atomic Habits by James Clear and wanted to bring its ideas to you today. This was another recommendation from Kaiser, who previously recommended that I read The Big Five for Life by John Strelecky, and links into a recommendation from Lee Cho to read How to Fail at Almost Everything by … Continue reading Atomic Habits, James Clear (Review/Summary)

How I Offer the Bounce Back
I’ve recently been thinking a lot more about my dating, and trying to get my ratio of dates to lays to be lower. That led me to thinking about the different ways I try to get a girl back to mine, which I’ll go through today. This is all part of me dealing with my … Continue reading How I Offer the Bounce Back
#78: Natural Born Killer
I was out with Kaiser after a stroke of good luck with the weather. It had been threatening to rain all day and the forecast was ominous. Suddenly, around 5pm, the rain cleared away, and so we met at Oxford Circus. Given the dark clouds overhead I wanted to get my sets done and out … Continue reading #78: Natural Born Killer
Just Get to the Point, Part 2 (Texting)
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about guys not moving the seduction forward. After talking to a few Daygamers recently I thought I should definitely write a follow-up, this time specifically about texting. If you want full A-Z guides to texting then read the epicly long section in Daygame Infinite and Mr V’s … Continue reading Just Get to the Point, Part 2 (Texting)
Back In The Saddle Again (Part 3)
This will be my final post on my return to Daygame since the end of lockdown. My overarching opinion is that London is back; not to its full potential, but it’s back. Though there are less students and tourists, there are still enough sets to go around, plus all the date venues are reopened. Hopefully … Continue reading Back In The Saddle Again (Part 3)
#77: Ice Cream Man
I met Lara a few weeks ago after work. It was one of those times where I had a pocketful of leads (of which none worked out) and so had set myself the simple task of just doing a set. I figured that that would keep me ticking over and I could at least tell … Continue reading #77: Ice Cream Man

This weekend’s student was called Chris - his testimonial is now on the coaching and testimonials page - and here are a few points from the couple of hours of … Continue reading Lessons From This Weekend’s Coaching #2
Reframing Negative Self-Talk
This post is going to be a quick and simple one, and describes another tool which I gave to Callum when we did some coaching on the weekend. As a beginner/intermediate, it can turn into a depressing time on the street if you let your negative self-talk get to you. That’s why you should identify … Continue reading Reframing Negative Self-Talk
The Charisma Myth, Olivia Fox Cabane (Review/Summary)
I recently finished re-reading The Charisma Myth by Olivia Fox Cabane and today I want to share some of its lessons with you and give you my recommendation. This book falls firmly into the practicable camp, rather than Seven Habits, which was a lot more foundational. I prefer the practical books, though, since I already … Continue reading The Charisma Myth, Olivia Fox Cabane (Review/Summary)
Lessons From This Weekend’s Coaching
I did a couple of hour’s infield coaching this weekend with a guy named Callum (who knows I’m writing this post). We’d talked over a Skype consultation a few week’s prior and he’d decided to pay for some infield coaching as well. The two hours turned out to be a perfect timeframe for me to … Continue reading Lessons From This Weekend’s Coaching
