Story
Men have been conditioned to be the quintessential "nice guy". They're trained to be overly humble, kind to a fault, and that just "being themselves" is enough to attract and keep the woman of their dreams. Men are told to believe that conventional masculinity is toxic and to put women ahead of their own interests, passions, and purpose. This book exposes the comforting lies you've been told throughout your life for what they really are, enabling you to become a truly authentic alpha who chases excellence and leads a successful passion-filled life.

For a long time, I found myself possessing the majority of those traits. I thought, "This is just who I am. I can't change that." Wrong. So Wrong. Most of these traits were handed to me, and probably you too, without request. With the way our society is organized (media, school, parents, etc.), these character traits proliferate. However, it wasn't until I started Un-Learning, that I truly became the well-rounded confident man I am today. Free and fulfilled in ways you can't currently imagine.

Warning! What you are about to learn will change the way women look at you, how people treat you, and will skyrocket your confidence levels! It seems so simple. You want confidence. You want respect. You want to be an alpha male. So you read up on all the self-help pap on how to improve yourself. But, you still feel weak and depressed.... Unfortunately, a mere intellectual understanding of confidence, charisma, and the alpha male is not enough. You must first embody the presence of the alpha male. You must master the art of body language!

Publisher's Summary
Do you struggle to create engaging conversation? Are you stuck in interview mode? Do your witty comebacks arrive hours too late?
Whether you want to (1) charm and befriend strangers and coworkers (2) banter better with friends, or (3) become charismatic and bold instead of nervous and lost in social situations, Conversation Tactics will get you there.
How many awkward, sweaty, red-faced encounters would it take for you to learn these tips on your own?
Conversation Tactics, Book 3 focuses on the subtle and nuanced tactics that will allow you to command any social situation. I'll shine a light onto the secrets of those that can own a room, always have a witty reply, and are never caught without just the right thing to say. I want this book to arm you with definitive tactics, maneuvers, and replies to whatever comes your way in a conversation.
It will be as easy as reading from a script.
As with all books in the Conversation Tactics series (all best sellers), this book is the result of years of being a social skills and conversation coach. Conversation can be boiled down to a science if you know how to approach it.
You'll get exact words and phrases, not just "be confident and make eye contact".
This book is highly actionable, with step-by-step analyses of complex concepts like sarcasm, the ultimate witty comeback, conflict conversations, and storytelling.
What will you learn about creating engaging conversations?
- The six types of responses you can use for anything, even if your mind is blank.
- How to become the witty comeback machine.
- How to avoid linear "interview style" conversations without fail.
- Self-diagnose and best practices for your personal conversational style.
- Why speaking like children will open others up.

We think too much alike
I won't go off say that it was a bad book or a great book because this information can actually help people.. but I guess it just wasn't for me.
listening to the book preview I was really looking forward to the book. Because the author sounded very much like he had the analytical mind setting that I like to have. I've always liked studying people and their tactic in conversations so I was hoping to learn something new. but I guess me and the author think too much alike that most everything I heard were things that already heard before or knew for myself. I still listened to the whole book because it was refresher refreshing. There was only one chapter that I liked and that's when he did a comparisons in personality types. Give it a try and see if it's for you.
