delet this thread

>>8875214
Yes, probably a few pages before bed each night.

>>8875269
why anon? do you lack self esteem?

>>8875322
Yes. The reason my friend got it for me is because she said she were really worried about my behavior and didn't know how to approach me about it otherwise.

>>8873348
Bumping for interest

Also I'm reading Walden at the moment and it's really helping.

>>8875349
That's very nice of her. Best of luck on your journey ahead.

Read No More Mr. Nice Guy. Before this self esteem book

>>8873497
Agreed.
>>8875804
Seconded.
Also try the Book of Pook. It's a bit much at times but an insightful read overall.

>>8873348
Any biography from someone successful. Extrapolate the common actions that made them successful over time and apply them yourself.

What's wrong with this? Don't be such a baby.

The Rational Male is really good if you're trying to improve your love life.

It's frustrating though, because if the book is right about women, you're better off alone.

Models was good, The subtle art of not giving a fuck was also good. The thing with models is that Mark Manson is 6'1, blonde and blue eyed.

A lot of these books can be summarized in to at most a paragraph..

Check out the happiness trap pocketbook I guess, the power of now was also kinda good

>>8876937

summarize models pls

>>8876985
1st; get your life together and heading in some direction
2nd; beat needing validation from others out of your system
3rd; take care of how you look and smell
4th; Any other reason to talk to a girl besides "I want to know her" is the wrong reason.
5th; Talk to girls (that's a big one, not going to meet many in your house)

I don't know, could keep listing things out but really just read the fuckin book. it's pretty much don't be a fuckin creep and stop caring so much about if a girl likes you or not, if she does great, if not whatever.

i found models to be pretty potent though.

there's sections on dating, moving things forward, how to dress etc.

As far as these books go, it had a lot of diverse content imo

>>8875804

Is that book actually any good? One look on Amazon and I notice its instantly flaunting its controversial nature.

>>8876601
>King Warrior Magician Lover
do you have any epub links to any of these?

>>8876601
also prometheus rising and in search for the miraculous have references to the illuminati on amazon.
