This book was released on 2015-09-26 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (BONUS! Includes Audio recordings of the actual routines in the book! All 700 of them!) Download Link found inside! It will give added insights on the overall game strategy to put back routines that were missed in standard teachings from routine based systems, that only produced "Social Robots". The mistake of the old teachings is they had you memorize random routines, although were useful? Were simply out of context in the flow of conversations from the "sets" or targets. If you were naturally talking about Cars, you had to transition into talking about Cs and U smiles and gay cats? That's retarded! True routine game does not need you to force segue routines, just so you can use them! You have to roll with the punches (devastating blows at that) and flow naturally! The feeling should be as effortless as if you were doing Natural game or engaged in normal conversations with real people. This book has enough canned materials or templates that can be customized and reworded (highly encouraged) to fit exactly how you converse, and your own unique game styles and personality. As with the problem of those doing routines? They only had a miniscule collection of routines memorized. They were obscure topics, out of the way in typical conversations, and not easy to implement in conversations. This is because the Seducer has no way to INTERNALIZE and have ready access to the materials! This is also why the audio recordings are included to serve as your Line Feeder, anytime, anywhere, even if you're doing another task! So you can practice even while sleeping and really absorb the materials through different modes of internalizations. This book series' purpose is not just to give you routines, but for you to ABSORB and actually have ready memory access to the materials whenever you need them in the field! Over 700 hundred of them!

Download or read book EQ Genius written by Gloria Moses and published by Gem delos Santos. This book was released on 2016-02-23 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost everyone is familiar with IQ, or "Intelligence Quotient", a measurement of intelligence arrived at by tests of reasoning and comprehension. A little less well-known is EQ, which refers to emotional intelligence. We know what emotions are--happiness, sadness, fear, anger, boredom, surprise--but what, specifically, is the meaning of emotional intelligence? Simply put, emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, understand, express and control emotions. At the most basic level, perception: being "in touch" with your emotions, as well as the emotions of others. When you feel bad, do you know specifically what you are feeling? Is it anger, fear, anxiety, sadness, or just boredom? How accurately you can evaluate your feelings is a measure of emotional intelligence. Another important component is how well you can correctly identify the emotions of others. Most of us tend to do this subconsciously, through the observation of facial expressions, body language, and vocal tone, as well as consciously, by listening to what others say (however, if those to whom you are listening are not well in touch with their own emotions, or have a reason to be duplicitous about how they are feeling, it's best to go with the non-verbal cues). ================= TABLE OF CONTENTS ================= Definition of EQ EQ Basics: Perception EQ Basics: Understanding EQ Basics: Expression EQ Basics: Management Is IQ more important than EQ? Figuring Out IQ and EQ Scores IQ Doesn't Always Help EQ Is Increasingly Favored by Potential Employers—and Voters Conclusions - Did EQ Win the Battle? What Are Signs of High and Low EQ?
