Now, me being me, I made a graph to explain how the point of no return actually works. If you're familiar with my work on the compliance ladder, then this might look familiar to you. And that's because, effectively, this is the compliance ladder. But I've zoomed into the initial stages right here. So basically, this magnified looks like this. And at the bottom here, we have our opener or our approach. First major checkpoint you got to get past, nothing starts without that. The next major one is getting a contact information from this girl. You could have all the attraction in the world for each other. If your logistics don't line up, you will never see each other again. Back in the day, old school people waste called this time bridging. And then we move on to the texting phase of things. This is a phase I'm sure you're familiar with and are very frustrated by. After that is the phone call, which is a lot more important and underrated than most people realize more on this later. And if everything up until this point goes well, then realistically you should be seeing this girl again for your first unofficial date. Okay, now pay close attention because this is important. First things first, I have to break it to you, but this is going to be the honest to got truth. Especially if you're intermediate and especially if you're still a beginner watching this. None of these phases here are going to be your point of no return, not even close. The average man's point of no return is somewhere around the second to third date. That's when the average guy begins to like relax and let things happen and flow the way they will. Up until then, he's struggling and panicking because he has no control over the situation. In fact, if you're a beginner in the game, you pretty much don't have a point of no return because you just haven't practiced your game long enough yet. Go practice. And that kind of leads me into my first major point about the point of no return, which is that the better you get at game, the closer your personal point of no return will begin to move to the beginning stages. In fact, let's go ahead and take me, for example, when it comes to this. My personal point of no return is right here. The phone call. All I need realistically is a nine minute phone call and that's it. In my mind, it really is like having a superpower. Even if the girl in question didn't have the best first impression of me when she first met me, if she were to make the mistake of picking up the phone when I call and allowing me to ram along for about 10 minutes, checkmate, and yes, damn near every time. Now, obviously, there's times where I've gone through the vetting process and find out I don't actually want to meet this girl in person. Or there's that 1 billion type of scenario where, for whatever reason, something outside of my control happened and I couldn't do anything about it because I wasn't there in person. But even for those really rare scenarios, I've been in a lot of those at this point. So yeah, I'm even more well prepared for those. The point is I am a god of phone calls. And sure, I have many massive advantages when it comes to that. I'm linguistically inclined. I have a massive vocabulary. Good story teller. Interesting to listen to yadda yadda. And honestly, that's one of the ways you'll find out what your own point of no return will eventually be through your natural advantages. But until then, as an intermediate in this game, your universal point of no return is going to be right here. Six, which ironically looks just like full amount. And what I say about full amount, it's a very dominant position. Puns slightly intended.
