Keys gives Back

Hey guys, Keychain here.

Basically, I'm opening up some time for some free one-on-ones for guys in London. Game/life-related issues covered. I'd love to give something back to you guys who have been following Rockstar for all these weeks :) To all of you, it's a big THANK YOU! :)

My time is VERY limited, and I'm not sure how long I'll be running these for as circumstances are RAPIDLY changing but I am opening up some limited slots for a few guys.

The conditions are as follows:

Are you passionate about improving your life?
Are you open to hearing and trying new ideas?

In return, I'll give a portion of of my time and undivided, respectful attention to you and do my best to give help and value in any way I can. We can sit and chat over coffee, go in-field or get sushi-to-go...it's up to you.

We can work on whatever you like - opening, daygame, sexual escalation, comfort, general conversation skills, networking, confidence, seduction stage material, life goals and time management/personal motivation...whatever you like. Please PM me with what you'd like to work on, why, your availability and we'll be in touch.

Laters,

Keys

PS: Please note that I'll only be meeting guys I think I can help - if you have a sticking point that is better tackled by one of the other Rockstars, one of the professional dating coaches in London or by some sort of reading/audio material, I'll refer you to those with the greatest blessing.

PPS:I know Blackswan and Starlight are also meeting up for one-on-ones at the moment, and I highly recommend them - they're truly awesome guys and very skilled. We have been fortunate to have met/been trained by the best professional coaches guys in the city so if you'd like their help but you're not sure who to go to, I'd be happy to give specific recommmendations.

Hey guys, so it's the last week of Rockstar...

Last night we had our evening with 5.0 and Vercetti and a special guest happened to drop by...Johnny Soporno! He met up with the crew and hung out all evening with us in Leicester Square, watching the crowds go by and sharing his philosophies on winning the game of life.

Before we get to that, the Rockstars congregated in central and chilled. Blackswan gave me some great advice about all sorts of life and business stuff. I respect his opinion and intellect a great deal, as readers of my previous posts will know, so it was great to have him turn that stuff in my direction once again. One of the special things about his advice is that it comes free of personal agenda (except the personal agenda to help). This is a rare thing.

Based on Blackswan's advice, I'm going to be doing some free one-on-ones in London to help others. Please check my next post for details.

Johnny Soporno. In a word: wow.

This guy has the kind of relaxed, at-ease manner that comes from having massive value, experience and self-validation...I've seen this in a very few people in my life - in fact I could count them on the fingers of one hand. As Johnny started unpacking his ideas, I started to understand what these people have in common.


- They are independents. People who don't draw their validation from leading or following, but who have an internal sense of validation. They make their own decisions, follow their own path and are validated (or not) by the success (or failure) of those actions. To win at the game of life, you must become an independent.

- They recognise that you can live by whatever rules you choose, living whatever configuration of life you want...as long as you are worth enough. As long as you can generate enough value to justify your existence, you can live however you want. This is part of the meaning of the term WORTHY Playboy.

- Men are motivated by approval, women by security. If, as a man, you can free yourself from the need to be approved of, you are on your way to being a true independent. This is one of the real keys and it was demonstrated in everything about Johnny. Watching him interacting with the Rockstars and our questions, with the staff, with passers by etc... was a real lesson in this. There is a centredness there that I homed in on.

- I asked how to free yourself for the need to be approved of without losing connection/care for the people around you. Johnny's answer was to do nice things for those who want your help, and because it makes you feel good about yourself. His motto: I live to enjoy the benefits of my best efforts.

There are crossovers between this and the David Deida stuff I've been listening to lately (great stuff btw) about Third Stage man etc... Living in your purpose, giving your gift. Awesome.

As I've said, I've met three guys in my life with the same vibe as Johnny, and each of them have profoundly influenced me. Time with a guy such as this is hugely valuable to anyone who has the eyes to see, the ears to listen and the openness to learn. To be honest, what he said was great, but the I got the most from the actual experience of just sitting there, across a table from him, enjoying the 'lived out' vibe.

If you get a chance, reader, check this guy out - his site is worthyplayboys.com, and he's got a truckload of free audio stuff there that you can download. Guys, do it, it's great.

So I'm VERY excited about this weekend! Im sharing a room with Prizefighter and all hell will be breaking loose at the big Rockstar finale in Essex! The other guys have already talked a bunch about it so I just want to say...I'm really really looking forward to it :)

Day 46 - Keychain

Hey guys, hope you're all well :) Here's another Rockstar update from yours truly...

On Tuesday we had our weekly session with 5.0. As usual, it was a good time with lots to learn (always so much more to learn!).

5.0 had us watch as Optimistic and Blackswan ran a two-set in a pub. We analysed body language, energy levels and the general interaction from a distance. 5.0 gave some great advice about how to give good feedback/debriefs (something he learned from Sheriff).

Basically:

Ask them how it went? What worked, what didn't? (quite often they will answer their own sticking points!)
Stay positive. Give a positive sandwhich: good stuff, correction, good stuff.
Then send them back into set with something clear and specific to work on.

5.0 asked me to debrief Optimistic. I just asked him how he thought the set went and he laid it all out perfectly - lol, he's been in the same classroom as me for 8 weeks so there's very little I could say that he wouldn't already by aware of! Optimistic knew exactly what to improve etc...in his own (already great) game. Self-diagnosis.

We chatted further and 5.0 talked about his ideas on giving value as part of game. The idea is to give value to everyone you meet - girls and guys. Make everyone you meet feel great about themselves. Rather than running sets for 'practice', actually give value to them - aim so that if they saw you again, they'd run up, say hi and want to introduce their friends. It's not just fuck or walk, it's giving value.

It was inspiring stuff, especially given the timeliness of his words. 5.0 spoke of how AFCAdam had profoundly influenced him in the Entourage days. He threw around a couple of magic tricks as well, the sneaky fella ;)

Anyway, the last couple of days have seen me snowed under with work. The Rockstar crew are planning a bit of a weekend away to celebrate the end of the programme. I'm trying to get the cash together as it not only costs to go away, but I also have to reschedule some work (those of you who know what I do will know that I'm usually hired for quite short amounts of time at a very high cost. So to miss one 'job' is to lose a significant amount! Cashflow issues, lol!).

It's all good though :)

I must admit, this week has been quite tough-going. I've still been hitting the gym, eating and sleeping (my sleeping pattern has totally sorted itself out now thanks to London_Hunk's 'sort your life out' programme!). But I've been feeling tired, a little dazed and a bit numb to sarging. Sure, I've been approaching lots - it's habit now - but there's a weird numb state I feel I'm in.

Feels weird. I think Blackswan went through something similar a few weeks ago - mate, let's have a phonecall!

Despite that, still loving life, game and Rockstar - ace times!

Days 41/42

Hey guys! Keys here, just flying in with a double-day update. Things are quiet on the Rockstar front...

Photobucket

I had work commitments on Saturday so was unable to attend Lord Mega's last-minute talk (darn it!). And today (Sunday) we appear to have been given a day off...nice :)

I tell you what, I'm pretty exhausted! Tomorrow (Monday) is our official day off, so I'll be hitting the gym, attending a couple of work appointments and then hopefully chilling. Rockstar is TIRING! Lol, sometimes Keys needs some recharge time so this weekend of downtime has come at a very nice moment. Obviously I'm still working etc...and technically, I'm still doing approaches everyday but these feel very natural and normal now, not at all like work.

Personally, I've undergone some major life changes and had a number of deep beliefs reset. As Rockstar comes to an end (well, we've got two more weeks but you know what I mean!) I'm feeling pretty excited about what's going to happen next. The skills we've learned and the friends we've made are already changing my life dramatically.

I wonder how Project Rockstar will affect the life-trajectories of each of its six members...

Laters,

Keys

Day 41 - Keychain

Hey guys! Today we had a talk from London_Hunk on comfort game. I rocked up at his place only to see Virgo...we always bump into each other when we're out sarging (his recent 40-day daily-sarge challenge coincided with Rockstar so we were out a lot!). Little did I know that he's an NLP expert training for his Master's Practitioner qualification!

Photobucket

I've read a little on NLP in the past and have applied various of its mindsets and techniques to my life. So it was really fantastic to have Virgo give the full picture as well as relate it to Game. He basically condensed the whole 'Introduction to NLP' course into a single talk - amazing. Chatting to him afterwards, I am amazed by his motivation and energy for self-improvement. He works an insane job and has so many crazy projects/interests on the go that my mind boggles how he fits it in! Much respect.

At these Rockstar talks, often I learn just as much in other's individual chats with the speakers after their talk. I can usually be found hanging from the ceiling, Spiderman-style, trying to eavesdrop on these conversations!

Blackswan asked very insightful questions about how to apply NLP to learning and retention of knowledge etc... Awesome tips from Virgo about allowing/trusting that all experience is stored in the subconscious. One of Virgo's areas of expertise is in the whole area of practically applying this principle.

I asked a little about how Speed Seduction fits into NLP (and learned that is based on two main principles: 'an emotion felt from a memory is the same as an emotion felt from a present experience' and anchoring. In other words, Ross conjures up an emotion by leading the subject through a memory - perhaps a fun experience on a rollercoaster. This puts the subject in a positive emotional state, which the SS practitioner can then anchor to himself).

London_Hunk's talk was excellent. The others have summarised the full content very well, but I'd love to go into some of my personal highlights.

1) London_Hunk gave an excellent breakdown of 12 techniques to use in comfort. His ideas on cold reading were especially good!

2) His emphasis on genuinely caring about people. According to London_Hunk, yes you can use techniques to 'game' comfort, but it's a whole other level when you actually begin to care about people. You can ask the 'Interview' questions and have it come off great if you really care and are interested. I've been watching RSD's Foundations course (which is awesome btw) and a lot of this dovetails.

3) The way I see it, London_Hunk's main focus is on non-game issues - he's into building a great lifestyle with health, wealth and relationships all at peak. So when he talks about game, he always comes at it from a 'life application' angle. Yes, he knows all the standard game subject matter and includes it, but he regularly disappears down non-game tangents which end up being very useful indeed.

Great stuff.

Laters,

Day 40 - Keychain

Hey guys, I had work commitments today so wasn't able to join the guys sarging. I heard from them that a lot of fun was had and a lot of salsa was danced!

Talk from London_Hunk tomorrow, looking forward to it! I always walk away from these freshly inspired.

Been making a concerted effort to eat a lot more protein. Need to game more muscle to meet my target. I must meet my target. For every week we don't meet our target, London_Hunk lays waste to another densely populated major city...if we don't meet our target this week...here is the consequence:

Be afraid.

Day 39 - Keychain

Hey guys, today we had physical assessment with London_Hunk and then...a conference call with Adam Lyons (AFCAdam).

Physical assessment went quite well - I lost body fat and gained some muscle. London_Hunk is still pushing for more significant muscle gain, and I'm doing my best to hit that. We chatted about my workout schedule etc... (I'm sticking exactly to his specs in the gym) and came to the conclusion that I need to eat more protein. Lots more. Bring on the chicken breasts...

After the assessment, we had our conference call with Adam Lyons (AFCAdam). Wow. I think he talked for over two hours...it was intense and amazing. It's up there with Sebastian Drake's talk as a life-changing experience - so many pieces of the puzzle clicked into place.

The other guys are so good at summarising this kind of information, but I'll have a go at mentioning some highlights:

1) Game's progression: Game 1.0 (routines etc...), Game 2.0 (natural approach), Game 3.0 (SCM game), Game 4.0 (celebrity game, the game Mystery is currently running, although not teaching).

2) To get to Game 4.0, you must work through the stages...routines evolve to natural game which evolves to SCM game...

3) Game 3.0, ogranising your own event/club based on your skills (ie, an all-girl poker club, Project Entourage, a girl's self defense class). Don't close your own girls, close other girls. People will begin to hear about your event/club...demand increases...you're heading towards 4.0.

4) Hating is the beginning of demand. It means people know about you and they are talking. Don't defend yourself, don't make a big deal, just invite them to be a part of what you do and they will gradually convert.

5) Traits of a natural: confidence, abundance lifestyle, the ability to sexual escalate.

6) Investment is key to attraction.

7) So much on social proof...weight in numbers, capture-recapture ideas...awesome.

One of the things that really impressed me about Adam was his generosity with his time. He constantly encouraged us to ask him questions and was willing to stay on the line for as long as it took to address all of our issues (and he really did stay for ages to help us out!).

He gave me great advice on how to 'game' a high-value clique, and emphasised the need for implementation:

'By the time you guys have finished Project Rockstar, you'll have had more training than anyone else in the world. Now you have to go out and use it.'

So inspiring. But also a challenge. Rockstar is a wonderful lab to learn great lessons and make new friends (many of whom I hope to keep for life)... but my mind is already forming plans of approach and 'people trails' to my career and life goals that I am going to pursue post-Rockstar.

Adam turned us on to his own site, with loads of free articles and information. I'm just checking it out now, you should too - this guy has got some seriously awesome information available here... Attraction Explained.

Guys, I'm gonna sign off - hope you're having an awesome day.

Laters,

Keys
