  1. eh, not interested in being the conversation-dominating, loud-talking person. that's a boring, meaningless, and vain game. it works if you're already that kind of personality. it allures you.

  7. Charlie, isn't telling yourself you love yourself a catch22? It seems like that would work for someone who already love themselves, and them telling themselves is a reminder of something real and true, since there is that experience of being loved to access and raw from. But for someone who just hasn't feel loved for most of their lives,, it would be empty words, and feel silly (more silly than someone who is loved just feeling silly, since the emptiness is more profound). It would be like a colorblind person who never saw red reminding themselves what red looks like. Can you comment more on this?

  12. I'd also add at 2:26 :"People tend not to attack when you aren't defensive, and aren't offensive."

  13. I just want to say the contrast between seeing Tai Lopez on ads right before seeing Charlie is one of the biggest boosts in good feelings about a person. Ew to Yes.

  15. ***** "it's just Will's personality. Faking this never comes off genuine, just obnoxious" Exactly why this scoop is fascinating, but not very applicable to a wide audience. I do, however, acknowledge that you can apply the principles, without actually being as boisterous. For instance, if you enthusiastically support and affirm someone in a conversation, it really does give you more likelihood and an opening to say something to follow up. If there is competition to speak, say, in a job fair with a bunch of applicants around, yeah useful stuff. Looking back, I think I hyperbolized and strawmanned this video a bit too much.

  16. so draining to do. all for the sake of manipulating others' perceptions..

  17. It's so helpful to extract and abstract the pattern. Too often in subjects like these, you can get lost in the specifics, and people won't explain to you the real abstract principle, instead emphasizing the details that aren't all that important.

  18. shane just message him on youtube? it's on his youtube channel about page too. when asking for something like that in your position, you should be aware of how it seems to the one being asked. there are lots of email spammers, and weird scammy people. it helps to eliminate that thing in the mind of the person you're addressing. which is actually pretty universally applicable to any situation where you're asking for something personal. email of someone you networked with, number of a girl, etc.

  20. i get what you're saying here, but have you considered this? exposure therapy works in gradual increments. IF the dose is too strong, it re-traumatizes. If one is in a state or level of skill that can handle heavy weights, then heavy weights is good for that person at that time. But many others are in a much weaker state when it comes to emotional / social condition. And if they also have a fear of social judging or approaching, then the drink is what dampens things to be tolerable, and reduced enough to not re-traumatize. At the same time, it also allows the person to stay in the game, so to speak. and get that experience, rather than avoid it altogether. We may be talking about a certain weight, but it really depends on how conditioned the person is.

  26. Socratic method works only on good faithed people, or if you can hold bad faithed people accountable via recording or a social witnesses. Very often it doesn't work.

  28. Saying charisma comes from being able to command respect doesnt explain anything and are superficial terms. He's saying one symptom is caused by another symptom. Language use signs that this is all just superficial behavior observation, like meditations by Marcus aurelius

  30. It's not that only over the top sarcasm is understood, but that being over the top is just one way to clear up the ambiguity fo whether they're serious or not. A statement can sometimes be interpreted with roughly equal probability that the speaker was serious or that they were not. If a situation is logically decipherable as not serious based on the content alone, then being over the top is not necessary, since there is an "out", so to speak - there is a clear indicator one way or the other. If you can't do it logically, then you can provide that signal by being over the top.
