The Natural: How to Effortlessly Attract the Women You Want

I am compelled to begin by sharing something rather interesting in connection with this book. I live in Oregon, and in my search for the best bargain on this book, I found a book dealer (through Amazon) in California that was offering it at an excellent price. I was like a little kid who had found a really cool toy online. So I wanted it in my hands as soon as humanly possible. California, being the state right below me, I figured that I would have my book in not time (4 days at the most). Well, within hours of placing my order, I received an email confirmation that my book had shipped! Great, right? Every day I checked its status, but before I knew it, the expected delivery date had changed to the 16th day of the "next" month (November)! I kept checking because it was difficult for me to believe that it could possibly take that long to get to me. Then, suddenly, the tracker placed my book in Washington! That is the state right "above" me! Somehow my book had skipped right over me! By this stage in my life, I am receptive to all of these "seeming" anomalies that show up every now and then. I now recognize them as "winks" from the Universe ;-) I sensed that this unexpected "shift" was telling me that this was going to be a "very good" book and to pay close attention to it.Yesterday I went online to check again, and this time the tracker showed that my book was in town! "Out for Deliver," It read! I didn't have to wait until "next month" after all! It was awesome that it had arrived on a Saturday too, for it was when I had all the time in the world to dive right into it! I was very excited and anxious to begin reading it because I had looked at a few YouTube videos where Richard is sharing the wisdom that he has aquired and developed throughout his years of "actual", "in-field" experience. It is very difficult to find any "in-field" videos of Richard himself, in action, and I am the type who needs assurance that the author or teacher of "any" theory actually "practices" what he preaches, that he "lives" his message. I didn't give up on my search and did eventually come a across a rare "in-field" video that one of Richard's friends shot of him at a club, from a distance. I think without Richard knowing that he was being filmed. The friend was dissecting and explaining how Richard was able to take the gorgeous blonde sitting next to him, back to his hotel room. I was so drawn into this guy's game that I kept getting angry at his friend for stopping the video over and over again, in order to explain what was going on, phase by phase. The truly amazing thing to me was that Richard didn't seem to do much at all! I was almost shocked when suddenly they both stand up and Richard leads the gorgeous blonde out of the club! I was "SOLD!" I had seen a "REAL" natural in action, and that is exactly how the interaction played out in that video--like the most "natural" thing in the world.Anyway, my curiosity was peaked and I excitedly searched for more videos. I soon found a really good one that touched on several points on how to establish a powerful emotional bond. Yet, Richard only touched upon the bullet points. I wanted to know the "mechanics." I wanted the "meat and potatoes"!I wanted to know how and why his techniques worked so powerfully and effectively.I wanted the "magic wand!"As soon as I walked back into my apartment, I ripped open the packet containing my book--like a kid who had waited way too long for Christmas morning to arrive--and with my eyes as wide as they could go, I began to read. Very quickly, I was in another dimension, in a whole other world, the world of seduction. I could not, for the life of me, put this book down! I literally "devoured" it in one sitting! I did not go to sleep until 2:00AM! By the time I flipped the very last page, almost every single page had at least one key point that impacted me, highlighted "and" underlined! I had writen all kinds of notes on several margins, and even pasted plastic tabs on the sides of the pages that held what I recognized to be the most "POWERFUL" tools! Sometimes I couldn't believe that Richard was revealing all of this! He gained an incredible amount of repect from me and inspired me to share as unselfishly with my fellow human beings.Soon I started to recollect experiences in which I had messed up a potential connection with a beautiful woman. Now, because of this book, it all made "perfect" sense! Now I understood why I had dropped the proverbial ball!One of the reviewers here stated that this book (The Natural) is a copycat of other PUA books. In defense of the author; I have to repeat something that a teacher once told me when she graded me on a report that I did on a subject that I had studied very well, simply because I was very fascinated by it. She told me that I must "NEVER" assume that my reader is as knowledgible about my subject as I am. She told me that I must always assume that my reader is new and not yet fully familiar with my topic. Richard "does" cover the basics of the art of pickup but effectively progresses towards offering very powerful infomation, keys that I had not accessed in any other book, and trust me, I have read "many"! Richard wrote this book like an edge of your seat thriller because the futher you go, the more power you are given and the more of it that you want! You can sense it, how the application of these tools can turn you into a "natural" Casanova! The tension mounts because you can see how these things can "definitely" work! I was so exicted when I got to the pages where he gives us what he calls "sexual spikes." This was "exactly" what I wanted! What I "needed" in order to perfect my game! Other books taught me how to build comfort, about the dynamics of attraction, but none explained how to "dramatically" improve my chances of ending up with bare skin slapping against bare skin at the closing phase of each interaction with a beautiful woman! I have gotten really good at the phone number close, but I wanted to master the art of body-merged-with-body close! This book revealed just how!Enough said. Go purchase this book. It is loaded with truly powerful gifts. Even if you were to borrow it from a library somewhere, trust me, you will want to "own" your own copy. This is the type of book that you cannot wait to dive back into over and over again. Like a great movie in which you pick up something new with every subsequent viewing. It is definitely a book that you will want to dissect thoroughly, underline the points that stick out, take notes from the key chapters, etc.Personally, I can't wait to go out and put these new wheels to the test! For the "field" is indeed where the rubber meets the road!Enjoy the game, mis amigos!!!

I'm a woman, and I read this book for sociological reasons, hopefully to understand men's minds a bit better. I felt it did help me achieve this and I'm grateful.First of all, I think this is a well written book, concise, to the point, written in a very conversational and friendly tone that anyone can follow. I believe it encourages men to have more self respect and gather as much confidence in themselves as they possible can. I always like to see genuine encouragement from a fellow human. I also believe it took the author a lot of courage to write this book. On the whole, the psychoanalytical aspects of this book are fascinating, in parts it's very funny and I believe it is beneficial for anyone wanting to improve their general confidence with anyone, not just a particular gender. However my main reservation comes one part of the book, and something streaking like guile, which is unnecessary. I am not saying the author is advocating this, merely that there is a slight undercurrent of it and men regarding it in general. The reviewers who are reviewing the author's personal charachter are contributing an irrelevant discussion, his personality is irrespective of the work, so stop judging the book by those standards.Women would much prefer honesty about your intentions. If there is one thing people value at all times it is honesty. Gentleman there are women who will screw you silly out in no need of anything in return but you do not need to deceive a girl who isn't of that persuasion. There is no need to humiliate a woman into thinking you have feelings for her you don't possess. Why would you want to intentionally hurt someone? Instead of being sly, come clean. I do not see what is so hard about saying to a prospective girl 'Let's skip the jazz.You're an amazingly hot girl. For twenty minutes I have been thinking about nailing you straight into my wallpaper at home, how bout it?" What is so freaking hard about that guys? She can only have so many reactions. (Kinky, I like it./ Who the hell do you think you are? / Great, let's go/ Sorry, that doesn't appeal to me./ Are you drunk?....ETC ETC.)If subtle he wasn't, then HONEST he was. Don't try and fool her, she's not a sucker. Offense is only something women are engineered to express, because it is what they have been taught, not all of them will reject you. They'd appreciate you think them desirable so there's no need to be sneaky and malicious. Would you like it done to you?I don't see why you have to make it a crocodile when you can present it as monkey, but whatever, I'm not the expert and there is nothing I have not forgiven Monsieur Casanova. Despite the moral ambiguity I think this is definitely worth a read, even if you are only if you are just looking to improve your skills making friends.

Lo empecé a leer por recomendación de Luis Monge Malo, haciendo referencia a que si quieres aprender realmente lo que son las ventas, este libro es clave

Es un buen complemento si ya leíste The Game y The rules of the game ya que maneja contenido diferente y no necesariamente contradictorio. Me sorprendió mucho lo bien escrito que está, es interesante y fácil de leer.

Amazing book. Firstly, It teaches you to be the best version of yourself through small exercises, so you attract women subconsciously and has useful examples and texts you can use to overturn boring conversation and be the person that everyone remembers

Contains lots of practical suggestions and a roadmap to follow to improve pick-up skills. There are details that can be useful to everyone despite the level of experience. Writing style is funny and enjoyable. Obviously you will need a lot of work to get results, nothing is effortless and magic tricks don't exist.

Muito bom. O livro faz o que promete, porém nem tudo se aplica a realidade brasileira. vale a pena a leitura.
