Recently I had some great input from a happy reader of “Powerful Game - Strategies of a Highly Succesful Pick Up Artist”
In terms of seduction techniques, the definition of the hooking point (hook-point) is “the moment that the group and/or target no longer want you to leave.” Well, as far as I’m concerned, the hook-point has nothing to do with attraction.
Only in the models where the base belief about attraction is that it is your job to create it within other people, you will find relevance for the concept of the hook-point. To my mind, this actively contradicts the very definition of the hook-point itself.
In traditional pick up models, both attraction and interest phases are externally validated, and the close is viewed as the ultimate external validation; a reward for the pickup artist. Sure, it’s camouflaged behind the concepts of “rewarding the girl,” and when you work your way through that, at the very heart of the model you will typically find an expressed need for external validation. So, what they mean is: The close is my reward for a job well done. In brief, it looks like this:
Attraction (external), Interest (external), Close (my reward) - And the fun part is that we come up with excuses later on, after getting a verbal or non-verbal “no” for an answer: “I wasn’t interested, so I ejected.”
Well, at Powerful Attraction, our view on the art of seduction is a little bit different. We believe that we must search for things that interest us, and then decide whether it attracts us, before closing – which is a mutual reward. To sum this up:
Interest (internal), Attraction (internal), Close (mutual reward)
Or
“I depend on the feedback of others to be able to feel successful.” vs. “I choose to escalate based on my values.”
You see, the hook-point exists in a paradigm in which we MUST build attraction and must show value. In knowing that you show value just by opening the conversation, you are harvesting a mental abundance like no other. As you lock in with the group you are strengthening the frame of possible positive communication, and you start screening members of the group until you have a meaningful “target.”
The above paragraph is at the very center of everything we do at Powerful Attraction. As you will notice throughout the eBook “Powerful Game” we exempt you from the duty of having to generate attraction, and from building external interest. However, we provide you with concepts to strengthen your abilities in this area as a natural flow of the conversation.
It is my core belief that you have only few things to keep in mind in seductive communication. You need to evaluate if you are interested, through qualification, AND to communicate that you are attracted, both physically and verbally. The hook-point does not exist in this paradigm that to us is called “The Powerful Attraction Model” – as long as I am locked in with the group, I do not care if someone in it is attracted to me or not.
I’m much too busy figuring out who is attractive to me.
At present, I am working on two new eBook projects, the first of these has the premise on following up on that first meeting with the girl. Instead of just developing the books all alone with feedback only from my peers, I am thinking that I will share my book content ideas on the blog.
