Things had to change, but how? What did I want? I wanted companionship; to have a girlfriend and not be alone. This is what most guys want. I wanted to get laid. Would I ever get laid? I wanted validation. I wanted to feel attractive to women, to feel thepowerofattractiveness.Iwantedtobeoneofthecoolkids.Iwant- ed the respect that men get when they have a hot girlfriend. I wanted the power to satisfy my infatuations. There is always somegirlthatyoufixateon,ifyoudon’tgetoutenough.Iwantedthe objectofmyfixationtowantmeback,insteadofhookingupwithone of the other guys. I wanted revenge. I wanted to get my last girlfriend to want me back. I wanted for her to regret leaving me or cheating on me. I wanted hope. I wanted to know that even if these problems could not be solved right now, that at least the body of knowledge THE VENUSIAN ARTS WWW.EXPLOREHUMANITY.COM existed, and that I could study it and practice it and gain the results thereof.IfIcouldknowforsurethatthesethingswerepossible,then it would be a comfort to me. In my quest for knowledge and power, I sought out Mystery and Project Hollywood, where I studied and trained in the pickup and seduction community, and where I underwent a process of personal transformation culminating in the authoring of this book. THE NATURAL OF PERSONAL REALITY Some people might say that a rich man is a man who has a lot of money,andthatapoormanissomeonewithverylittlemoney.Butis it really correct to distinguish them by their outward possessions? Is it not true that if you took away the money from a rich man, vii within a few years he would likely be rich again?And also, if a poor man wins the lottery and comes into a million dollars, is it not likely that within a few years he will be poor again? Of course there are always exceptions due to circumstance. But withthevastmajorityofus,theoutsidecircumstancesofyourlifeare a direct reflection of what kind of person you are on the inside.Your outside circumstances are the natural expression of your character through time. This is the secret—the nature of personal reality. Being richisn’t really about having money. It’sabout being a cer- tainkindofpersonontheinside,suchthatmoneybecomesnaturally abundant in your life. Financially successful people tend to be more industrious, more ambitious, a constant source of value, eager to learn from mistakes andimprove,prudentwhereitisprofitabletobeprudent,risk-taking where it is profitable to be risk-taking, not overly discouraged by PREFACE temporary setbacks, persistent in drive and positive in outlook. Wouldn’t you expect such a person to be more financially successful?Don’tweallaspiretoimproveintheseareasofourown character? Through time in the field, I grew to learn that it is the same way for those men who have an abundance of women in their lives. The game isn’t about getting women. It’s about becoming the sort of man whosewayofbeingnaturallycauseswomentodesirehimandtodraw near to him. This book contains the knowledge I was seeking when I got into thegame.Initliesthehope,theunderstanding,andthewaytoprac- tice in order to gain power and choice with women and in all other social dynamics. viii This book is also designed to take you through a mental process, no matter how you read it. Feel free to skip through the chapters in noparticularorder,orreaditallthewaythrough,orstartattheprac- tice and troubleshooting guide (Group Theory), or simply flip through the book and browse the topics that first interest you. Keepthebookclosebyandopenitoften.Itwillbeaguideforyou in times of romantic uncertainty, and you will see that the revelation contained within these pages becomes richer and more insightful overtimeasyouventuredeeperanddeeperintothefieldofpractice. People are already asking me how this book differs from the last one (The Mystery Method, St. Martin’s Press.) It’snotanunreasonablequestion,inthatbothbooksaremeantto teach Mystery’s ideas. Both books are meant to serve as a standard text on the concepts and fundamentals of social dynamics. If I were to describe the differences between the two books, I would say: THE VENUSIAN ARTS WWW.EXPLOREHUMANITY.COM (cid:2) While the first book introduces Mystery’s teachings, the new book captures Mystery’s presence and personality. (cid:2) While the first book records Mystery’s diagrams and models, the new book expresses the purest understanding of his game. (cid:2) In the new book we narrow our focus to the pickup itself (the first phase of courtship), emphasizing the core skills and founda- tional understandings of our art. (cid:2) The first book is now several years old. Though the teachings therein are still effective, the new book contains our teachings as we understand them now (2008), versus how we understood them in 2004–2005. (cid:2) Mystery’s game has been unfortunately mischaracterized by his ix pioneering use of peacocking, negs, and canned material. The new book reveals our practical emphasis on vibe, delivery, humor, microcalibration, and value switches. This book is called Revelation. What does it reveal? (cid:2) Revelation of microcalibration—Mystery’s revolutionary com- pliance model is fully revealed inside this book, and woven throughout all of its teachings. See especially the sections on Interest, Disinterest, Body Rocking, and Sound Bites. (cid:2) Revelation of inner game: read The Zen of Cool. (cid:2) Revelation of outer game: see the Table of Contents. (cid:2) Revelation of how to become a venusian artist: read How to Roll. (cid:2) Revelation of the waypoints: see Group Theory. (It’s a complete troubleshooting and practice guide.) (cid:2) Revelation of the Approach—and beyond opinion openers. PREFACE (cid:2) Revelation of Value, and how to use value triggers to activate Attraction and Connection. (cid:2) Revelation of all the Conversational Skills necessary for a venu- sian artist to run game, with special emphasis on humor, story- telling, sound bites, and frame control. (cid:2) Revelation of social intelligence. Gain a deeper understanding of social status, higher and lower value, emotional program- ming, vibing, plausible deniability, discretion, conspiracy, social proof, and violation theory. Learn to interpret people’s signals intuitively and respond in the most useful way. If I can give one piece of advice about this book, I would say to x meditate on it, even little pieces of it. Leave it on the coffee table, on the kitchen counter, in the bathroom. Just keep it around and flip throughitoften.Letitsoakin.Goouttopractice,thenflipthroughit again. This is not the sort of book that you want to finish reading. (cid:2) Chris Odom LosAngeles, February 2008 THE VENUSIAN ARTS WWW.EXPLOREHUMANITY.COM
