Keys on Fashion

Hey guys, how’s your fashion? I’ve met a lot of guys who have questions and struggles when it comes down to getting a good look together. It’s something I definitely had to work on myself.

We all know that fashion isn’t everything, but I’m sure we can all agree that having a good look certainly helps when meeting women. It’s a bit like taking the bricks out of your suitcase.



In light of this, I thought I’d share some of my thoughts on fashion for you guys…

I have found that when learning pick-up, it is useful to learn how to create your own style of interaction - to get the best long-term results, I found it most helpful to try various things and, through a process of constant learning and experimentation, find the particular combination that works best.

For instance, I model my voice tone and vocal delivery on Mystery, but there are strong elements of Sasha, LondonSoul and Zan in there too...the result? My own way of talking that is unique and works for me. How did I get there? I copied Mystery loads until I truly understood what it was about his delivery that worked so well...and then I added in a bunch of other influences (much of which happened just by hanging around guys with great vocal delivery) and the result was my own thing.

The process is IMITATE, ASSIMILATE, INNOVATE.

So it is in fashion. Mimick someone with great fashion, yes. Copy him, yes. Then begin to understand why it is his particular fashion works - elements that make that look so successful. Then innovate with that and come up with your own thing.

This is how many lots of people learn skills – be it game or tennis. We find role models. It's common sense. Here’s a great way to apply this approach to fashion that I personally found really helpful:

First, create a folder on your computer desktop called: Fashion.

Second, jump onto google. Google some celebrities that you think have a great look - if you're not sure, go for pretty much anyone really on the A-list. Check out their style - I looked specifically at movie stars, musicians, television personalities etc... Search their names and click on the IMAGES option in google, so you can see lots of pictures of those people. Look through and save to your Fashion folder any photos of those people where you think they look cool, have good fashion, a great look etc... whatever it may be. Go by what you like and you'll have a portfolio of people with a variety of great looks to choose from.



Third, choose an image with a look that you think you could replicate, something you could identify with and think is really cool. Maybe it's a shot of Brad Pitt on a talk show or of some rockstar from a VH1's 'Behind the Music' episode. Then, go out with that picture and start shopping for that outfit - you can get loads of great items for really knock-down prices. You don't have to shop for the exact items in the picture, just use the image as a template and work around it. Ask sales assistants for advice, show them the look you're after.



Some extra tips on fashion

• Start small. Don't buy too much at once. Getting your fashion together is a learning curve and even with a template you will occasionally buy something that, when you get it home, you realise was such a bad idea! That's okay, it's part of your education, you can usually return it to the store anyway.

• Try on at least two items that are definitely not you - two very 'fashionable' items that you could never see yourself wearing. Often, when I have done this, I have found stuff that really works and that I'd have never considered had I strictly been shopping for 'my thing'.

• Have a look around you. Chances are you know some guys with a great fashion sense. Have a look at them and think, what is it about their look that works? Get specific. Notice the combination of top, jeans, shoes and accessories - anything around the neck, wrists? What are the colours? Copy them.


I hope some of these ideas have grabbed you or inspired you to take a fresh look at fashion. These ideas are great starting points to get your eye trained to notice a good look when you see it. When you get used to noticing good fashion, you’ll start to see it all around you and have lots of reference points for your own look.

Happy shopping guys!

#Loading.......Life Upgrade#

Hey guys,

I'm literally just about to head out the door but I wanted to put down some thoughts for you guys...

I've been really lucky lately to work with a lot of really cool guys, doing a bunch of 1-1's and consultations. I've been consistently impressed with (most) of the guys' attitudes - so willing to try new things, open to new ideas and passionate about throwing themselves into tough situations so they can really grow. And grow they have, it's been inspiring.

Many of these guys are using Game, and the process of learning it, as a vehicle to improve their whole lives. These guys are eating better, dressing well, holding their heads up high and communicating with clarity and strength - these are fantastic life skills! How did they learn them? Through game.

Increased confidence? From game. Clearer, brighter and more engaging communication style? From game. Sense of self worth and value? From game. A love, respect and empathy for others? From game.

The PROCESS of learning game and getting good at interacting with women has made these men better people overall. Now, not everyone in this community gets there, and that's okay...but let's you, dear reader, and I, dear author, be the kind of men who do reap the life benefits of learning to improve our interactions with women.

It seems that some people who learn 'game' for any length of time and have success seem to 'graduate', if you will, into improving other areas of their lives too. The amazing process of change and improvement that they witness in their interactions with women inspires them to revamp their health, finances and businesses with the same gusto and passion...and the results follow. 'If I've improved this much with girls...imagine what I could do with my finances/health/fashion!'

I want to encourage you guys to start upgrading every area of your life (it's YOUR life after all, rock it!).




Start small. Stack little improvements one on top of another - eat a little better, start stretching every day, learn to cook a new kind of meal, tidy your room(!), get a copy of RichDadPoorDad and start reading, join a salsa class, go buy a nice jacket for the winter, get a trendy scarf, get out there and do some of that daygame you've been meaning to try, learn an instrument...



Start taking little action steps to improve the quality of your life and you will start to see changes. Maybe not instantly, but give it some time and you'll see your life gradually improving...and these kinds of slow, steady actions steps last. Build habits. Build in little upgrades to your life.

Do it guys. This is the kind of stuff that makes you the kind of man a great woman will become attracted to and, importantly, STAY attracted to...instead of 'doing' attraction, embark on the journey to 'become' attractive.

Oh, and don't think this means no more game...oh no, this is really where the game starts to get interesting ;)



Get out there and meet girls, do your thing, live it up...and start building your life into the truly awesome adventure that it can be. Make it happen.

Laters,

Keys
