Page Comparison

• Use simple props, like Lindybeige does.

• I think promoting yourself online is really important, but when I have free time I often can't think of anything off the top of my head that I should create. It'd be better for me to note down ideas here as they come to me, and to work on those ideas as I have free time.
• Hmm...I have a lot of ideas...it might be good to look into paying someone to edit them for me.

• Many of our social attitudes are no longer as appropriate, but they persist because of the way habits are passed down through generations.
• Talk about how the speed with which we move into the future is held back by social norms that spread from generation to generation. We could travel into the future if we got rid of this limitation. For example, Amazon tribes are still living in the past.

Sell your soul to the devil (an exercise in rhetoric)

• Simple prop in the "Sell your soul to the devil" video: red contacts that you have under sunglasses and reveal at the very end.
• Tell a story of a many being abused by his company and leaving
• Reveal that the man was the person commonly known as "the devil"
• first give analogies of how people only experienced some of the universe's creatures in the past (eg whales), and then there was a period where some people had experienced those creatures and there were some inaccurate depictions of them in stories and books, and now everyone knows what whales look like and are. And that pattern can still hold true because the universe is very large. And what's weird to humans (insects) is only weird to us because that isn't the plane of existence we occupy. So just because something sounds weird doesn't mean it isn't perfectly normal.
  • Then reveal that the man in the story was an angel, and the "boss" was god.

• I should make a series of five-minute videos explaining how driving in a car is like investing in the stock market.
• I should record a video of me just sitting at a desk, reading, recorded from the back, and play it on a big flat screen tv in the motel room. There should be videos of other top entrepreneurs reading. This could also be a good idea for a project to get to know those people (although many of them didn't become successful by knowing successful people).

• Have a video where you talk about how people seem to respect those who speak with authority / without hedging their statements.

Playlist: Dating Advice for My Kids

• Approaching
  • Video: Slowly get closer
    • Show the clip from Amarcord
    • Show yourself doing the same thing
    • Not sure how this jives with the 5-second rule
  • Video: 5-second rule
    • I agree with Mystery that this is useful, but I think it's a bit advanced to expect inexperienced guys to master this. I see it more as a target to aim for, a destination to head towards.
  • Video: Exercise: Ask a question of an employee / street vendor
  • Video: Exercise: Walk close to the person but don't say anything
  • Video: Exercise: Sit on a bench and practice getting up when you see someone attractive
    • The idea here is that you want to be able to stand up and start walking over to them.
  • Video: "Pinging".
    • Use the clip of the Combat Mission guy talking about making contact with the enemy with the minimum possible portion of your force, so you have the maximum ability to maneuver.
• Conversation
  • One way to get good at this is to watch videos of other people doing it. In the old days, people probably got good just by watching their older siblings. But now everyone is so separated from each other, people don't see what the generation ahead of them is doing.
• Tracking your progress
  • Video: Keeping a journal / log
    • Use the analogy of using a journal / log when lifting weights.
• Analyzing your performance
  
  • Video: Recording your approaches
    • Use clips of Bas Rutten talking about how useful it was to analyze his fights afterwards.
    • Use the analogy of analyzing your mistakes on the LSAT.
