Hey Cory,
I have been in the community for about 1 yr. I am 28yr old who immigrated to U.S. who was brought up in a rigid conservative society. During my 7yrs in U.S. I always thought girls won’t like me because of my ethnicity which was to a great extent a consequence of the guys who I surrounded myself with. My rational mind always question myself when a beautiful girl is around me, that she is out of my league, she would not like me because I not I not American. But during the past year, I got over that kind of thinking I have attended 2 Boot camps of a reputable company. I had my post-boot camp highs; I was instructed to go out everyday. I hung out with a lair, who are nice guys in their own (they are not weird) but none of us succeeded, one guy was social that is what all he was. When I approached, the conversations die down, women did approach me (including beautiful women), and I was just clueless about what to do next. I used cheesy words to express my sexual intent, all it did was got them confused, sometimes I acted aloof, they tried to open me up, but for one reason or other they walked away from me. I was frustrated with myself and with the community, because the more I got involved with the community; they had additional pressure of approaching and making all the things work.
A month and half ago, I fell on this forum; I read this website and immediately ordered magnetic mindset. The philosophy of Cory is great, attracting women with eyes, was unbelievable, but certainly this looked like a “blue pill” I was looking for, but the more I read the stuff on the forum, and listened to the Magnetic mindset, things made complete sense to me.
It made sense to me that lack of women in life is a symptom not the root problem. I signed up for the boot camp. The beauty of Cory’s boot camp it is not anything like what I have gone to before, it is just opening up ourselves and talking about our life experiences. The guys who took the boot camp with are courageous to share their life and experiences (You can still share some of your secrets only with Cory during the boot camp), but in general each of us knew where we are coming from, as different and great our stories are there are some similarities on which the group can relate with each other on.
The first day of boot camp, it was a sit-down with Cory and fellow guys to go over our story, Cory and Andrew (a student of Cory who is greatly inspiring to all us) listened to our stories patiently and tried to understand where we are coming from. Our group had guys who had are good with women but are not consistent, to guys who hardly had any, none the less, we had lot of things to learn during this session of open dialogue.
The second day of boot camp, started around noon with great emphasis on body language like walking, eye-contact and other physical presence, awareness and whole lot of “simple and subtle” things are covered and we had a question answer with Cory, Andrew and a wonderful girl who is there to help us. During the late evening we had mirror affirmations, when we hopped to club. It was a fun experience. The third day was part on the review about the night out, and a great deal of questions and answers. Cory spends one-on-one time with each student about where they are and how they can improve and “road map” towards becoming better men.
I stayed one more day for one-on-one with Cory, during the weekend I learned a lot, but during one-on-one things, we went into more detail with where I am, Cory went down and peeled down the layers, and went to great lengths to uncover the core issues, that made me who I am. Initially, I was nervous, I have always wielded a wall around myself, so that people don’t judge me and to put a brave face, the very feeling that some one is trying to dismantle it and see through me, is nervous. Cory made me more comfortable, and we have gone over my issues, and there is a load of anger and resentment in me, towards the world, not just women. During the boot camp, Cory pointed my lack of social skills (I never thought I was so bad, but damn I showed my middle finger to the friend of a girl who approached me the other night). After analyzing where I am and how can I start my road to improvement. We went to “style make-over”, Cory along with wonderful salesman Mike poured in hours of their time for a complete wardrobe makeover, and the rest of the night we went to club where we just chilled. I know the process can be long and hard, but I will be working with Cory to improve myself to be a better man.
