Woo! Latinstylez.com’s first ever video interview!

We got to speak with Arash Dibazar (aka. Achilles) of SeductiveInstinct.com. This guy has a lot to say and you’ll watch a few gems in this interview.

Bolo:  Alright guys. This is Bolo from Latinstylez.com with my friend Arash, who’s currently… Uh, where you at?

Arash:  I’m in San José, California baby!

Bolo:  He’s in San Josey.  [LAUGHS] Arash is also known as Achilles from The Game. And he’s an up and coming PUA. And it’s a privilege to talk to you Arash.

Arash:  Thank you for having me. And uh, I’m glad to be alive.  Let’s go.

Bolo:  Alright, cool. Alright, first question. Most people don’t know that much about you.  You’re coming up.  And I’m just curious. Like, how did you get into The Game? How did you get into Pick Up?

Arash:  It’s a long story.  Let’s make it short. Well, I grew up and when I was six years old I had to leave my country which was Iran. And between the age of 6 and 11, I lived in Iran. I live in Turkey, in Syria, in Kuwait, in London, and Nebraska, and California.  In about 5 years I moved that much.  And uh, naturally, when I got to the United States, I wanted, you know, I started liking girls. And I wanted to have beautiful girls around me. And I liked the white, pretty cheerleader type. But they weren’t going to talk to me because I was a complete, just culture shock. You know what I mean? Like, everything was wrong about me at the time.

Arash:  So anyways, I got into the martial arts at a very young age. And I was interested in two things. One – how to defend myself. Two – how to get chicks. Which is survival and replication value, if you know anything about it now, right? So I spent all my life, every moment I could get my hands on, studying something about the mind, whether it was NLP, hypnosis, Dianetics. Anything you could think about. And martial arts. Because, one, I was getting beat up in school. So I had to learn how to defend myself. And two, I wanted the girls and nobody wanted to talk to me. Not the girls, not the boys.

Arash:  Until about two and a half years ago, I came across Mystery. It’s a really cool story how that happened. And, whatever, we got to talking and I became his student. And Matador, if you know who he is, James Matador, ended up becoming my personal mentor. And now I am a mother fucking beast. Beep. You know, without [INAUDIBLE], but we do cuss in California, San Jose.

Bolo:  Alright. That’s fine. You can cuss as much as you want here.

Arash:  Okay.

Bolo:  Alright. So how long have you been doing Pick Up for? Like 2, 3 years or something.

Arash:  About 2 and a half. Two years and four months, learning game. But prior to that, everything I studied, I tried to apply to picking up girls. I just didn’t have a structure or anything. So I was successful getting chicks but I didn’t know there was a group of Pick Up Artist. A community that was working at it. I understood that there was such a thing called Game. Being taught at two years and three months ago.

Bolo:  Interesting. So you use to be a dork and everything and you didn’t get any chicks. What’s your life like right now?

Arash:  [LAUGHS] Well, I did get chicks because at some point I achieved high status in the martial arts. And I was really bold and I, you know, I was the shit. So I would get girls, but it was so direct. And it was, again, lucky. But I would go after the hottest chicks. So I got girls after a certain point. When I was around, I think, 18 was when I got my really hot girlfriend and then it just moved forward.

Arash:  I’m 34 right now. But the difference is, the life that I live now… I’ll be honest with you, if I explained it to you, it would be out of reality and it wouldn’t fit. So if you could take the book The Game and go to the end and watch Neil’s life and what happens to it, I could tell you that’s very real to me. You know, when I first met Matador, after the first night he said to me, “Arash, you could live like a rock star. You could have so many women in your life that you won’t have time for them. And you wouldn’t know what to do. And that is what I have right now in my life. And I have a current, I have a girlfriend also.

Bolo:  Really nice dude. And it only took you two and a half years to get there?

Arash:  Yeah. It’s still a journey. I’m still evolving man. My game is still tightening up and I don’t think it’ll ever end. Just like martial arts. But it’s pretty high level. It really is. You ask some of the people who have seen me do stuff or talk to people who I have taught, who have been taught by the best in the world, and they’ll tell you I’m better than everybody right now. And I know that to be true.

Bolo:  Very nice. I’m curious, like, about your style. Like, do you have a dating philosophy? You know, like in the community, there’s all these different styles. Direct, indirect. You follow Mystery Method or what?

Arash:  Mystery’s my original teacher. And his method is the base for everything. I believe who is very successful at Pick Up has that as a base. So, my style is my style now. But it has Mystery Method as a base, for sure. Does that answer your question?

Bolo:  Yeah. Yeah, it does. Okay. That’s cool. Now, I’m curious, how did you become good enough at dating to become an authority at it?

Arash:  An authority is somebody who can do the job. That’s an authority to me. You know what I mean? It’s not someone who has a certificate. It’s not someone who other people think knows. It’s the person who can do the job. I can do the job. I’m surrounded by 9s and 10s. Now, in the Bay area, people thought they knew what 9s and 10s were until I got into the Game. Now, the guys, the guys that are the legit Pick Up Artists and quote, are some saying, you hear them, they meet around, they say, “No, we don’t get girls like Arash does. Those are 9s and 10s.” So I’m an authority in quotes, first, because people listen. But more importantly because I can get the job done. I can take someone and teach them from zero to be able to get hot chicks. And I can demonstrate it in my life. I live a life of Pick Up. You know?

Bolo:  Very nice. Like, when you first started, I mean, were you just going out every single day or…

Arash:  No. Well, let me explain something else on that. I just popped in my mind. I think the moment that it became really clear to me that I was okay to teach was when I was out with Matador and he introduced me to Laurence Fishburne. I think he was the black actor from The Matrix.

Bolo:  Yeah. Yeah. Ne-, Morpheus. Yeah.

Arash:  That’s right. And he introduced me. He said, “This is my former student, Arash.” And he goes, “The reason I say former student is because he is a master of Pick Up.” And that was a big moment for me. And there was many conversations after that. So being acknowledged by him, bona fide like that, I was like, “Okay.” You know? And I know I can really change people’s lives. ‘Cause this shit is powerful dude. You know what I mean? It’s fucking powerful. You can change a person’s life. Completely turn it around. No matter what is going on in their live; men are struggling with women. And I’ve seen it.

Bolo:  That’s interesting.

Arash:  I missed the other question you said.

Bolo:  Yeah. Just… What was it? How did you get good enough to become a dating authority? How did you start out? Were you just going out a whole lot or…?

Arash:  I actually barely went to the clubs. On this, I was in LA visiting and I would go with Matador. But other than that, here, my game was created in a way where when I would go shopping I would game everybody there. I would go eat, I would game all the waitresses. Then I would go and, let’s say I’m working out, I would game everybody there. Wherever I was I would game. So, then I created this thing where, for me, game and life are the same. It’s a lifestyle. For me it’s not like, “Oh, now I’m gonna go to the club and game.” So you said, did I go out every night and game? I didn’t go out, but I gamed almost every moment when I was around a chick. Almost every moment. You know? It was unbelievable. So I got very good at it. And my hired gun game is pretty ridiculous. What I can…

Bolo:  Oh. Really nice. Like, do you teach boot camps or what exactly, what type of coaching do you do?

Arash:  Oh yeah. We do boot camps. We do Skype coaching. We do webinars. I have a boot camp coming up this weekend. We do one on ones. Man, you name. I’m just interested in creating the next generation of incredible Pick Up Artists. I benefit from that. It’s important to me.

Bolo:  Yeah. You’ve had a lot of students at this point, right?

Arash:  A lot, you know, is a relative term. No, I don’t think so. I’ve had students and they’ve been very successful. But I was very picky and I still am. I don’t teach everybody. There’s a lot of people that want to learn, but they don’t want to learn. You know what I mean? So I teach people, we go put them in the interview. We find out what they’re all about. If they have a passion for this. If they really want to do this. If they do, I meet with them. And I accept them as students and I change their life. And if again, if they’re not a good student while I’m teaching them, I actually will get rid of them. And I did that to four people.

Bolo:  You’re kidding.

Arash:  No, I can because my name is on it. It’s a brand. You know? I’m a brand name. I’ve done martial arts long enough. I have a very successful martial arts business. And this is now my business in Pick Up. And I want to have a brand. I want it to be, if you were trained by Arash, if you were trained by Achilles, if you’re from SeductiveInstinct.com, you are good. Or you’re on your way to being very good. I don’t want people to say, “I studied with him, but I don’t get any chicks.” No, no, no. Not me. So I’m very selective. The ones that don’t make it, I give them a few chances. You know, if they’re not doing their reading, if they’re not doing their practice, if they’re not showing up, they need to go somewhere else. I don’t care how much they pay. It’s just not the way that I do things.

Bolo:  Okay. Like, during the interview process, what are you looking for, like, in a prospective student?

Arash:  A few things. One is that they really have to want to make a change. They’re not just talking. You know what I mean? They have to have a passion for doing it. They have to be willing to go through rough times. It’s not roses man. Are you kidding me? It was difficult getting good. Very difficult. Thank God it was difficult because now if it wasn’t, everybody else would be running around getting chicks. I put in my time and my dues. So those are the basics. More than that. It’s a vibe, you know? Lucky, he does the interviews and I trust his judgment. So he does the interview and you’d ask him what he specifically goes for. What I look for in a student are those things. Passion. A person who’s willing to go through the ups and downs. And a person who really wants to make a change in their life. Then I’ll make it happen.

Bolo:  Sounds good dude. Now, what about the guys who don’t make it. The four guys you had to kick out? Like, what common traits do they have?

Arash:  Well, they can go fuck themselves as far as I’m concerned.

Bolo:  [LAUGHS]

Arash:  You know what I mean? Probably looking at the pictures of my girls online. But anyways, they, the traits they have is they don’t want to get better man. They don’t do it. You know, you have to take the next step. That’s it. You know? So if they don’t do their reading, if they don’t show up, if they don’t look like they really want to get better, they just want to sit around and talk about it. No dude. This is an action based activity. There’s theory and there’s application. You gotta put them together.

Arash:  There’s people that can sit there and talk all theory all the time. But they can’t demonstrate shit. On the other hand, there’s some guys that get chicks, but they don’t know any theory. So when they teach, there’s a guy, a joke, you know, he was like, you know, I did a seminar, and then he did one right after me and he was like, “Well, just go out there and be yourself. And just be ballsy and be confident.” I’m like, “Dude, you’re a joke. Get the fuck outta here.” You know what I mean?

Bolo:  Yeah.

Arash:  How are you going to teach someone that? That’s not game. That’s ridiculous. You’re the good looking guy. So he gets to do that. I wasn’t a good looking guy. I’m an interesting looking guy, I know. But I’m not a good looking guy.

Bolo:  Yeah dude. I know what you’re saying. It’s a little too, too much esoteric, you know, advice. Like, “Oh, be yourself. Grab your balls and just go.” You know?

Arash:  Yeah. Find out who you really are. It’s like, “Yo man. If I knew the answer I’d be Buddha right now.” You know what I mean?

Bolo:  Yeah. [LAUGHS] Yeah dude.

Arash:  Don’t fucking go there. Give me some specific technique, like look over your shoulder, lean away, smile, tell them you gotta take off in a minute, and ask a neutral question. Those are techniques any person can apply. And that technique will improve their chances just by doing that, talking to a chick. And that was directly from the Mystery Method. An open.

Bolo:  Yeah. Now, what do you think the greatest mistake guys make with women is? Just like in sarging in general.

Arash:  They show too much interest too fast.

Bolo:  And what can they do to correct that?

Arash:  Well, keep doing it. Keep losing the chick. Keep doing it. Keep losing the chick. And then some point get sick of your sickness and say, “Fuck! What am I supposed to do?” At that moment, stop showing her so much interest. So she has to earn, she has to earn it from you. Honestly, that’s the very first thing I ever learned in game when I started studying it. That was the first thing. I applied it that night and it completely changed my experience with women. She has to earn you. You know?

Arash:  They demonstrate interest when they walk up. Already opening a girl you’re showing interest. So as quickly as you can you gotta calibrate and take that away as soon as possible. So she knows that okay, well, you were playing on level ground with her. Or even you gotta be higher really. You gotta have more value. So I think the biggest mistake is they show interest too quickly. The way they can correct is just recognize that’s not the way to get the girl man. It’s just not. I mean, where do you get that from? It’s not proven. It’s lucky. I don’t want to be, I don’t want to get lucky when I get chicks. I want to have skill. You know what I mean?

Bolo:  Yeah.

Arash:  It’s like do you want to be lucky if the parachute opened or do you want to know you fucking put that shit together. You know what I mean? And you put the parachute together. You check everything. And then you jump. Even then, some people’s chutes don’t open. Just like Pick Up. You could be a master Pick Up Artist. Sometimes you ain’t gonna get the chick dude. You gonna fuck up. Big deal. But you do all the pieces right and your chances are greatly improved. And you jump, still with adrenaline, but trusting your chute which is the game. Damn, that was…

Bolo:  Okay. [LAUGHS] Yeah, I’ve jumped out of a couple airplanes before and it helps to be prepared.

Arash:  Oh. Have you really jumped out?

Bolo:  Yeah. I’ve done AFF and Tandem. You do AFF by yourself , you go train for like 10 hours. Like, I had to go at 6 in the morning. Didn’t jump until like 6 in the afternoon.

Arash:  Wow.

Bolo:  It’s a fun time dude. You should give it a shot.

Arash:  I will never jump out of a plane unless it’s burning. Otherwise, I’m good. I’ll just take it from one place to the other.

Bolo:  Well, any tips or techniques you can give the guys? Like, any newbies listening here. Or any, like, you know, just any, anything that your particularly like to do.

Arash:  Yes. Yes, I have so many fucking hints and techniques and shit. So let me just go over a few basic ones. This goes, talk about for everybody, inner game is so important man. Inner… That’s what I had. That’s what… You asked me what made me so good. I had monster inner game. Monstrous. Because of martial arts and the study of the mind that I had all my mind been doing.

Arash:  So ,anyways, let’s get into this. Just like anything worth achieving, whether it’s a black belt in a legit martial arts or its surgeon, become a surgeon or anything legit, you have to put in your time.   And you gotta be willing to do what it takes and go through the hard times. So anybody picking up Pick Up for the first time should understand, you  know, you are going to get the chick one day. You’re totally going to get the chick one day, but you better be willing to go through some shit to get there. Like, really go through it. You gotta put yourself out there, so if you’re not willing have both sides of the coin, my teacher would say, Manu, that was his name, then you can’t have one or the other. You can’t just study game and go get all the hot chicks.

Arash:  The guys who are getting the supremely hot chicks using game, the way it’s taught, have put in their time. Personally, me, I’ve been picked out of two restaurants in San José because I was miscalibrated. Manager came up, “Sir. You’re going to have to leave.” And it’s fucked up. It’s an uncomfortable, uncomfortable experience. That’s the least of it man. I’ve got story after story of shit I’ve done. Boyfriends threatening me. Husbands threaten to kill me. It’s, like, fucked up.

Arash:  But now I’m at a point where it’s rare to get any reaction like that. So the advice is to recognize what you’re getting into, but it’s worth it. If it’s worth it for you to be able to get super-hot chicks and handle this part of your life once and for all. Once and for all, where you just know you have some skill. Then do it. For more advanced Pick Up Artists, I tell you this, straight up, if you have not studied and understood the Mystery Method, you’re missing out. And I guarantee you’re not as good as you could be. I guarantee you’re not as good as you could be, okay? You gotta study it and understand it, even if you’re good.

Arash:  I have Pick Up Artist here who are already good. And now they’re all going back and their game is tremendously improving. Because it’s scientific method. It has a structure where you can always find out where you are if you’re fucking up. It’s incredible. That’s for the people that have been studying game and maybe haven’t had the experience of the Mystery Method done correctly. A lot of people talk about it. They can’t demonstrate it, right? Find a good teacher. And thirdly, for people who have and they’re still struggling, you need to find a good teacher. You got to find a good teacher. How many good teachers do I know? I know four. You and Mystery and you know Matador. ‘Kay? The other two? Don’t worry about it. [LAUGH]

Bolo: [LAUGH]

Arash:  Legit, legit teachers. You would never in the field of martial arts, if your life is on the line, if someone’s gonna knock you out or break your limb or choke you out, you’re not going to go to some shmoe who hasn’t demonstrated his skills before. Doesn’t matter how many certificates he has. No matter what kind of website he has. You need to find a legit teacher who can teach and has already demonstrated who he is.

Arash:  That’s why it’s important for me to have a family tree. Mystery taught Matador. Matador, Arash. Good. We can trace that shit. I didn’t come out of nowhere, right? And if you call him up or if you see Matador, you say, “What do you think of Arash’s game?” He’ll tell you. It’s the way it is. That’s life, right? So for everybody else who’s been studying, maybe stuck somewhere, find a real teacher who can help you. Period. Simple. Done.

Bolo: Oh, very… Yeah dude. Very nice. Like, you seem to live a really kick ass life. You’re an accomplished martial artist. You met all these famous guys. You met Mystery. You met Matador.

Arash:  Ross Jefferies.

Bolo: You met Ross Jefferies before. Manu. I looked up his stuff on youtube. He was on the A-Team!

Arash:  Yeah. Manu was incred-. Man. Yeah, I’ll talk all day about Manu. But yes, he was my original teacher. Everything I can do is because of him as a base I have. Manu Tupou.

Bolo: Like, I’m curious. How did you build up this lifestyle. How did you meet all these people?

Arash:  That I still… Hey. Your voice, by the way, is really faded. So if you could fix it ‘cause I’m trying to desperately hear you, right now.

Bolo:  Can you hear me?

Arash:  That’s better.

Bolo:  Alright. I’ll just have to hold up my mike up like this. Alright, so yeah. How did you meet all these guys?

Arash:  I really can’t answer that with a fact because I thought about that question all my life. I don’t know. I don’t know. I do know when I met them , I instinctively knew how to act. And they saw something in me that they appreciated. And I dedicated, like, really dedicated myself to these teachers. I really did.

Arash:  Right now I’m doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with them, one of the best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu masters in the world. And I’ve dedicated my whole life to the guy, you know? For the last 10 years I’ve been studying with him. September is 10 years. That’s, I love that. I love being a good student. You know? So, I don’t know how I met them. I really don’t know. If you try to work out the math of it, it’s impossible. So, I can’t figure out how I met them, but after I did I knew what to do.

Bolo:  Like, I’m sure a lot of these people, like, they have students all on them. Wanting to be, you know, their students personally. Like, what do you think separate you from the other guys?

Arash:  You gotta ask them that question. I can only guess. You know what I mean? I know my qualities, that if I was, you know, I am a teacher. As a teacher, I would see this sincere determination, desire and passion of this person to really learn and give proper acknowledgement to that teacher. That’s very important. That’s why I keep dropping Matador’s name or Mystery’s name because, and even Manu who’s passed away 7 years ago. That’s important to me.

Arash:  People have lost that tradition. You have to give respect to the people who came before you. There’s people who have said to me,” Man, your game is so great.” You know, it’s better than so-and-so. I say, “Listen. I don’t even compare myself to Matador. I don’t even compare myself to Mystery. I would be foolish. I don’t even… Who cares? Who cares?” Without them, there would be no me. So let’s just get that straight. Right? But it’s this Western mentality of, like, step over everybody. Get to the top and blah blah blah. And be the best. Shut the fuck up. You know? So, I don’t know. Maybe that’s what they saw. I don’t know. You would have to ask them. I think I would see this in myself. A guy who knows that he’s going to do whatever it takes to be the best.

Bolo:  Very nice. Alright. I looked up some of your videos on YouTube, you know? And are you, like, a club promoter?

Arash:  No, I’m not. I’m not. I actually use the game to create a lifestyle of a rock star. I want to be on the stage. I want to have a mike. I want to have girls around me. I want to perform. But I don’t have a voice. Besides what you hear. I can’t sing worth shit. So , it’s my secret how I did it. But I used game to position myself where I’m at now. I do shows. I get hired as an artist to go into a club and put on a show. A promoter is someone who promotes people to go to the club and get paids off of it. I get hired by the club as an outside. I go in. I do a show and I leave. That’s what I…

Bolo:  Okay. Can you drop any hints if one of the guys wants to do something similar?

Arash:  Absolutely. Hints are this. First of all, I have skills. You know? I’m on stage. I’m capable because of Manu. I’m a theater, master of theater. I know what I’m doing. And so you have to have something, right? So I can produce. I can produce a show. I can direct and produce shit. So that’s what I have. But the big hint in regards to game is if you have beautiful women around you, enough of them, it opens many, many doors for you. And I knew that. So I knew that having that, I could open doors. And I did.

Bolo:  Okay. So, like, social circle.

Arash:  You better believe it man. You wouldn’t believe my life. You should add me on Facebook. You literally… I tell you. I bet you there’s nobody else, nobody else in the world that we know that has a Facebook like me unless it’s Hugh Hefner. There’s nobody surrounded… Because even the celebrities bro, they get chicks, but they don’t have them in their social circle the way I have them. You gotta believe… We’ll you’ll see it for yourself.

Bolo: Okay. I saw your Facebook. You do… I saw, like, I think your Picasa web photos. Yeah, I can attest to what you’re saying.

Arash:  That’s my life. That’s what I do.

Bolo: Like, how did you build up your social circle? How do you get that many females around you?

Arash:  By having very tight, meticulous game. Very tight game. That’s it. Because…

Bolo: It all just goes back to game.

Arash:  If you know the structure of the Mystery Method , there’s comfort in the middle, C2 is deep comfort and connection. If you have a comfort and connection with a beau-… And I just did it with the 9s and 10s. Now, just like that, every relationship will end eventually. You gotta know how to end it. So girls will come and go. But the core group keeps getting stronger and stronger.

Arash:  My vision is to one day have, be the guy who establishes what is sexy in our current culture because of the way I look and who I am, I’m a rebel. You see how I look. And my girls are the new playmates. They’re the new, you know what I mean, the new Playboy Playmates. They’re the IMC Sinful Angels. That’s who we are. And you’ll see this. ‘Cause it is in our area, we’re known as the hottest girls in the Bay Area our under Arash. So now all we gotta do is get the word out to bigger than Bay Area. And it’s happening already. You know?

Bolo:  Very nice. Like, I’m curious though. What do you think is your biggest sticking point right now?

Arash:  Hmm… Good question. At the moment, I haven’t… My confidence has not caught up to my game. If that makes any sense. My confidence is lower than my ability to do game. So I’m starting to see that at some point they’re reacting to my game, which is really tight. But I start to fuck it up because my confidence is not there yet. And that incongruency  has been killing me. And now I’m getting it.

Arash:  That’s what I’m currently working on right now, is to see myself as they see me. Because I still have in me that little boy who was fucked up, with a lot more confidence now, but I see it come out at times. Somewhere in that structure that shit comes out. And now I’ve been in the progress… It’s funny you ask. For the last 3 days, I’ve seen it. To just nuke it out. It’s, like, it’s incongruent. That’s it. And you may never see. My lifestyle and what I can do, but that’s why I’m stuck, what’s what I need to fix right now.

Bolo:  Okay. Well, what about, like, the rest of your life. What other goals do you have? I mean, you seem to be doing pretty damn well already.

Arash:  You know who Lil Wayne is?

Bolo:  Yeah.

Arash:  My goal is to achieve material and fame, success higher than him. He’s the one, his picture is in the background for that purpose. It’s in the back. Point to him. There.

Bolo:  Yeah. I see him.

Arash:  Yeah. To spread the teachings of my teachers and help, honestly, because that seems to be the one activity that fulfills me at the end of the night, more than anything else is when I help people. And it’s very selfish. And it’s not all fucking vain and shit, “Oh. He wants to help people.” I only want to do it ‘cause it actually makes me feel better.

Arash:  The final analysis; that’s what it is. And to really just open my eyes and see… There’s a lot of goals. I’ve very goal orientated and shit. But in the big picture, Lil Wayne status and higher. Than use that and what I know to help as many people as I can. And on a personal level, just continue evolving as an individual and see, see what it is man. I mean, like, you know, it’s quiet a journey – living. It’s a trip. You know, it’s a trip. So I enjoy thinking about life and philosophizing about it and seeing what it’s all about.

Bolo:  Okay. Yeah. Sounds good to me dude. Like, what’s your day to day life like nowadays?

Arash:  I have a very strict schedule, I’ll tell you. I get up a 9AM every single day. I make myself some kind of smoothie juice for breakfast. I go and I do Jiu-Jitsu from 11. I finish at 2. I get home. I showered. This is every day. I shower. Hang out with my girlfriend till around 4. Some days at 3:30 or 4, I come to this office, what you’re seeing, and I teach game on Skype or meet with people. At 5 I’m in my martial arts academy teaching till 8:30. At 8:30, I head back to this office. Teach. Lecture. Or hangout with a friend. This goes Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Friday is very similar to that except at the end of the night I hang out with my girlfriend. Saturday I teach in the morning. I have an open schedule in the middle of the day, where I hang out with a friend or go out gaming, whatever. And then I hang out with the girlfriend. Sunday I hang out with the girlfriend, having a meeting. Sunday night, hang out with a friend. Literally every single week is like that. And it’s been like that for years now.

Bolo:  What about your products? Can you tell us, like, just what you have? Like, you got boot camps? What else do you have?

Arash:  If a person if interested in learning from me, it’s really easy. They go to SeductiveInstinct.com. Can they email us there? They just shoot an email and they say what they want to learn, okay? Then somebody. 48 hours is my turn around time for everything man. If you haven’t heard in 48 hours from us, we didn’t get it. Straight up. Two days is long enough to go to another country and come back, you know? So, they say what they want. Based on that, we’ll email them. And say, “Look. Here are the options dude.”

Arash:  You know, and money is an issue for a lot of people. I don’t know from where you are, but in this economy in the United States it is. And I don’t give a shit about that too much. It has to be fair. It has to be something where, you know, I feel like it’s worth the time. You know, I gave you my schedule. Somewhere in there I fit somebody. That’s it. Straight up. That’s my schedule.

Arash:  So there’s an infinite number of products because it’s tailored to the person. Now, on the other hand, there’s, we just released that Alpha Male series. It’s a 6 DVD set. 5, 6 DVD set. I don’t remember. And that’s really cool because  that has so much, so much information, up and down the scale, on alpha males. And there’s language patterns, and there’s everything. Okay? So that’s for somebody who just wants to check it out. And there’s also, you know, again, webinars. We have this thing called Secret Diaries, where I interview some of these 9s and 10s. And you can see me talking to them and there’s a lot to learn. So those are some of the actual products that are out.

Arash:  But what I like my business to be is someone contacts us, we develop a personal relationship, find out what they’re all about. Based on that, we give them a few options. The one that fits their budget, they take it. I change their life. They go out and they tell the world how incredible I am. And then Lil Wayne can be my little bitch afterwards.

Bolo: [LAUGH] Alright dude. Sounds good. Anything else you want to say to the audience from here?

Arash:  Yeah man. First of all, thank you for doing this. You get the word out. You know what I mean? We all have our jobs. So now because of you more people are going to have an opportunity to learn from me and the stuff that I know. To the audience, any final messages, bottom line, and it’s going to sound weird and cheesy, but it is what it is. Let’s just make it a better place for everybody. You know what I mean? Somehow, someway. Whatever your skills are. Whether you’re, you know. Whether you work as a doctor. Whatever the fuck you do. You sweep the streets. You know, let’s wake up and go to bed and try to make it a little bit better for everybody. You know what I mean? Then it’s worth it. Teacher Manu would always say, “Be the best and fuck the rest.” So that’s the message. Be the best and fuck the rest.

Bolo: Alright. Thank you Arash and it was good talking to you.

See more of them here and you can find bootcamp information if you are in Asia and are interested here

We head over to another members place and he says here’s your first guys. One of them, I found out later had a g/f, and didn’t want to go into PUA just yet. However, the other newbie was interested and took in everything. The coaching started earlier in the day with a friend of mine going over the Mystery Method and actually working some sets with him in the coffee shop. He texted me the next day astonished at this stuff and was thanking for me to introduce him to it…

Back to newbie. We go over his history and we discuss game. This was totally informal as I didn’t have anything really prepared and didn’t even know about the coaching opportunity… I go over general game with him and let him know about how it has changed my life.

Venue-  Club Rayn

We head over to the venue. 3 PUA’s, 1 newbie in training, and another one who was “curious.” Once in the venue, it is pretty slow. I remember going over the new Mystery Project Hollywood and he mentioned even if the venue was slow to open whoever. Newbie is watching me and I open a 3 set with the “Drunk I Love You’s Opener”

The opener goes like this

PUA: Hey Quick Question, Do you think Drunk I Love You’s Count?
Her: No
PUA: My friend called his girlfriend last night when he was drunk and told her that he loved her. This morning he called her back and said he was taking it back…
Her: Always receives an emotional response

I worked my target for a few, but didn’t call in the newbie yet. I went over wing rules with him and walked around the venue with him as I was greeting other people.

I open another set obstacle for Falcon- HB 8 Colombiana. This girl was pretty hot and visiting from Ft. Lauderdale. I talked to her about my recent vacation to South America and was running the set in Spanish. Did some cold reading, qualifying, and hit my DHV stories that I have been working on. I get occupied and another girl I know walks past me. I introduce the two of them and say bye to Colombiana and go off with the other girl. I had gamed this HB the previous week. I sit down and she sits down next to me. I would use her later in the night as a pivot in other sets.

One area I would like to work on is taking advantage of using pawns/pivots in my sets more.

I have newbie open a set and he goes in with no AA. Good job he calls me in and I talk to the obstacle HB8 Dental Hygienist. This girl was cute and Southern, too. She had a nice lil Ga accent. Newbie stays in his set for a bit then ejects. I stay in with mine ran some cold reads, qualification, and went into DHV Stories… Number closed her…

I compliment newbie on opening his set and gave him some tips on opening game and how to approach a set better IE not leaning in and not fidgeting… I was really impressed at the fact that he had very little AA and would approach. His opening game needs work, but he has a lot of potential.

The rest of the night I was focused on helping newbie open more sets and getting to know him as a person. He was a great guy and we will be working together tonight. I will have some planned material to go over with him before we head out to the venue… We head to IHOP and all debrief over the night. You could tell we made an impact on him.

Things I did well

1. Got a dose of my first on the field coaching experience
2. Even though the venue was slow, I approached what was there and made the best of it
3. I showed the newbie some stuff that could potentially change his life

Things I need to work on

1. Work more on my coaching skills- I’m new to this
2. Continue to work more on my bi-wing game
3. Using pivots/pawns more in sets

There will be a bootcamp on May 15th that I might be helping with if I am in town. I really enjoyed this and would like to continue coaching other guys…

1. Have your dress style down- this means don’t go to the club dressed like a bum. Your appearance is very important. No shaggy beards, dirty shoes, smelly clothes, etc. Dress clean and look your best. If you don’t have an idea about dress style, ask an HB to help you out.

2. Make friends with some good wings- a good wing is someone who won’t talk trash about you in set with other girls and he will have your back no matter what. If you don’t have an idea where to find a wing, check your local pua lair. Every city has one. I like to roll with about 1-2 wings when I roll to the club. We always build each other up when we are out. We never trash talk one another.

3. Interact with everyone at the club- when I go to clubs, I like to interact with the bartenders and the club manager. I like to make friends with the club owner as well. What this does is everyone sees that you are the prize because you are interacting with the important people in the club.

4. Practice sets- or ¨warm up sets.” I will usually do a few warm up sets before getting my mind completely in tuned for gaming. This means you can approach everyone just to get yourself amped up. Remember we want to get ourselves motivated for the night.

5. Work on your mini bouncing- if it is going well with an hb you are talking to, do a mini bounce. If you watched VH1 The Pickup Artist 2 you saw the guys mini bounce their targets around the venue. This can be a private area in the club.

6. Have your logistics laid out- if it has been going well with your target and you are kino escalating, remember to have a plan laid out. Do you want to try to close her that night? Do you want to meet up with her another day? Whatever you decide get her number and set up a timebridge to meet up another night. A timebridge is an agreement with the two of you to meet at a specific time on a another day.

Here’s some quick tips to club game. Good luck and if you have any question don’t hesitate to ask…

Ok, now that the show is over we have some time to reflect. The best man won. We all know Simeon had an edge over Matt. What I thought was interesting was that Matt wasn’t too far behind Simeon in the challenges. The final challenge I think Matt should have taken his girl to the bed instead of trying to kiss her by calling her beautiful right when she got in the room. He did complete the task, but Simeon handled the test with precision.

Precision is a key in becoming a better pickup artist. Why? Well, you handle the challenges in style. Did you see how relaxed and confident Simeon was in set? Matt will be a great pick up artist, I think. He just has a few tweaks to fix and once he does fix them he will be strong.

What did you guys think of the show? I liked it, but I think the show was a little too glamorized for TV. The lessons were only described in short detail- maybe 5 minutes. I know this is not a pick up review show, but for some who don’t know the material it can be confusing for them. I think more time going over the lessons in better detail for the world to see will be instrumental in developing people’s understanding of what pick up really is.

I thought the challenges were well planned, but I didn’t like how they stuck to the one central area in Arizona. I want to see the show expand to where the guys are gaming in other cities across America. One of the things I like about pick up, is the fact that it is still relatively new.

This means that things will continue to change. My specialization is in geographical gaming. Basically, developing my game in different continents. This will help ensure that the Mystery Method and whatever other materials are applied. Not only that, but I will be developing techniques specific for that region. Pickup is different from country to country. In Korea, the kino escalation process is different than the United States. The United States is different than gaming down in South America.

Mystery has helped revolutionize pick up to an art form. Now, let’s see what is in store for the future. What I would like to see in The Pickup Artist 3: different city locations, more detail on the lessons, and Mystery explaining to the viewers more about the pick up community.

It’s down to the final two Matt and Simeon.

Reward Challenge:

Objective for challenge- they have to read nonverbal keys to kiss as many girls as possible with speed and precision. The challenge is a race against time. Mystery doesn’t reveal the reward just yet.

The venue is called Suede. Simeon goes right into set with the movie opener. He does a good job sexualizing the interaction right away. Matt goes into another set. He negs the target and she asks for his name. Simeon goes into another set with the movie opener and looks at her hand and tells her it is interesting. He asks to borrow the friend and pulls her away.

Matt hops into another set. He moves a two set into a sit down location. Simeon is conversing with his target. Matt’s target gets pulled away. Will he switch targets? Simeon does the trust test with his target. Matt does the trust test to. Simeon pulls into his target and k-closes. Matt pulls in a few seconds later.
They k close their targets within 15 minutes.

Simeon wins because he k-closed quicker.

Field Test:

To isolate a perfect 10 back into the bedroom. Simeon gets the master bedroom for winning the reward challenge. Mystery says you will use more negs with 10′s. It is a different type of game than running it to an ordinary girl. Attraction, Comfort, and Seduction are the different processes they will take while running game on the perfect 10′s.

The guys will be going to the furniture store to dress up their rooms. Matt uses a globe for his conversation piece.

The prize for winning the competition will be: $50,000, joining Mystery’s team, and the red medallion. The people invited to the party are friends of Mystery. The game plan is to bring the girl into the room then leave then have her come back in later having her used to being in the room.

The Challenge:

Matt opens a set and ejects. Simeon looks at ease and comfortable into set. He brings Simeon into the set and DHV’s his boy. Simeon is giving and getting a massage and guesses if his target is from NYC. He’s using a lot of Cf’s lines in his set. He gives them a tour of the place, and brings two targets into his room.

Matt isolates his targets. Simeon already kisses one of his targets, but the window is closes. He tries to get a 3 way make out and pulls the set back outside. Matt is back into the set. He gives his target a back hug. Matt is telling stories to his targets. The window to sexualize went out the door.

Simeon goes into another set. He isolates the single set back into his room. Mystery says he is touching her too much. Matt is befriending his targets friend. The Asian girl is into him he is wondering if Matt can pull the trigger.

Simeon pulls back into the room again and he throws his hat on her. Simeon K-closes his target. Matt pulls his target away and into the bedroom. He K-closes his target once in the bedroom.

Elimination:

The medallion given away will be the red medallion one which is the final medallion to become a pick up artist.
Mystery critique’s Simeon’s game about holding his hand on the blonde HB, but he saw the pick up mindset in him.

He saw Matt with a two set and able to stack forward. He tells Matt that he can do more. He needs to sexualize it more.

He asks them why they should be the pick up artist? Simeon feels like has improved tremendously, Matt says he has stepped out of his comfort zone and he has been able to break through the challenges.

The Winner:

Simeon is the pick up artist. He has won it all!

What do you guys think?

[polldaddy poll=1137908]

Simeon starts off first working with Ryan. Greg is working with Darrick, and Greg is working with Chuck.

The guys go to the clothing store to have a makeover. Simeon gives his student the “rockstar” look. Greg and his student try on everything. Matt wants his student to become more comfortable.

The next spot is a hair saloon. Chuck is reluctant to lose the beard. Ryan gets a lip piercing and has his hair dyed.

Now, the teachers teach the students the materials like opening. Matt gives Chuck some lessons in storytelling. Matt feels really nervous about the field test. Darrick and Greg spend a lot of time practicing the material together. Simeon teaches Ryan about isolation.

Field Test:

The newbie who does the best job will win the field test for his teacher. Darrick goes in first and passes up a set. Greg comes in to help Darrick out. He tells him to have confidence which Matador says is not a good idea.

He opens a set uses a false time constraint and doesn’t stack forward. He then stands around the venue.

Chuck goes into set next. The first thing they comment on is his beard. Matt goes in to give Chuck some advice. He tells him to be happy and enjoy himself. He opens a 4 set. He doesn’t kino the set but then gets invited back into set. He gets a good amount of ioi’s.He uses a DLV about not knowing the area. He didn’t pick a target.

Ryan opens a tan hottie and asks for her hand too soon. He comes in as too needy in the set. Simeon comes in and gives him some advice on leaning in and not engaging the guys in set more. He opens the next set with a movie line opener.  He asks them how they know each other. Turns out they work together. He ends up number closing the set.

Field Test Winner: Simeon

Mystery says that Simeon did a good job. His student clearly did the best job.

Elimination:

The medallion tonight is the black medallion. It is the symbol for win it’s an Ancient Germanic symbol which means joy. Mystery was looking for what they were doing as approach coaches.

Simeon- is saved from elimination and critiqued his students performance.

Greg- Mystery things his student was dealing with his approach anxiety. Mystery tells him about what to do as far as coaching with his student.

Matt- his student looked uncomfortable. He looked like he didn’t want to be there. His student didn’t see that it was life changing. Chuck needed to be pushed further.

This one was difficult for Mystery.

Greg is eliminated, but Mystery sees a lot of potential in him.

Mystery wants the guys to meet them at the grocery store. He talks about day game and to go indirect. He also tells the guys not to neg to harshly and their game will be watered down. During the day the game is more casual.

The reward challenge- is to number close at the supermarket.

Matt- he opens, but doesn’t initiate the chat and DHV. Matt begins to just walk around in a goofy way lol…

Rian- he opens a two set of UG’s. Come on can you seriously open some hotter girls man! He number closes.

Simeon- he opens the set and doesn’t even look in her direction. The next set gives him some ioi’s and doesn’t use the material to number close. Mystery says sometimes a sloppy pick up gets the job done.

Greg- he opens a set about bars in the area. He doesn’t use the material he was taught. He hits his next set with an indirect opener, but doesn’t stack forward. He could have reengaged, but didn’t.

Winner: Mystery says Greg and Matt need to pull the trigger more. Rian was smoother and wins the reward challenge. The reward is a surprise.

Lesson: the guys will learn how to work as wing men. He talks about how pick up masters use them in the field.

When you go into the set, you want to DHV your wing and never talk bad about them. You want to use an AI (accomplishment introduction) about your wings real world DHV spikes. Matador uses the example of DHV’ing Mystery about him writing a book and introducing him to the set.

The guys begin to think of their AI’s. Mystery talks about handling obstacles and wings are good at helping with them. Then you will want to isolate then kino escalate and make out with their target.

Rian gets to choose a wingman. The team that wins will be safe from elimination. Rian goes with Greg as his wingman.

They go over the material with Mystery and Matador in pairs. Simeon and Matt look like they work well together. The main thing is trust over the field test.

Field Test:

The goal is to achieve physical contact with the target and isolate then kino escalate to make out.

The venue is Axis. Rian will initiate then Greg will come in that’s their plan. Rian opens a three set. Greg and Rian use the code language and the sets not ready so Greg leaves. Rian continues to stack forward with the set.

He introduces the set. They invite them over to the table. Greg isolates his target and the others join. Rian has to keep the others occupied. Greg should kino more. Rian does the hand touching to kino escalation and creates a jealousy plotline with his target. Rian needs to pull the trigger.

Greg gives his target the trust test to escalate the kino and goes in for the make out close. He continues making out. Props Greg.

Rian uses the kiss gambit. He asks who’s the better kisser. He goes for a quick kiss on one of the targets.  Rian doesn’t pull the trigger….

Simeon goes into the set with high energy and brings Matt into the set. They move the set and hand hold the targets. Simeon gives his target his hat. Matt is not escalating the kino, but Simeon is. Simeon locks in and goes for the make out close.

Matt needs to shift into his set and Simeon talks him up. Simeon leaves the set, but Matt just goes right in for the make out close. That was a swift move. You have to give Simeon props on boosting up his wingman. That is what pick up is all about!

Mystery is very happy about everyones improvements. Greg didn’t help Rian when he could have had a 3 way make out. Matt and Simeon are the winners. Greg and Rian are under possible elimination.

Elimination: The medallions symbolize degas- the blue medallion. It stands for transformation and clarity.

Matt and Simeon get their medallions for winning the challenge. Rian was getting IOI’s and didn’t pull the trigger. Rian says he did. Greg was into making out with his target and saw him leave his target. Rian made two girls feel uncomfortable. Matador says pick up artists kiss.

Greg is given the final medallion. Rian is eliminated.

Beginning initiate the chat in a non threatening way and to up the DHV spikes in a quick way and to throw the negs in there. The guys practice negs on Tara. A neg should have a reaction of laughter. Simeon is called out for his facial expressions.

Field Test: The guys have to go to the Diane Swim wear Bikini fashion show and reception. The guys have to go out and get as many numbers as they can. The guys will have to approach swimsuit models.

Greg- is looking for his first set. He doesn’t open his first set and doesn’t use the material. He loses the set.

Brian- he hits a good opener, but he stays in set and steps in instead of ejecting. He hits one with a hard neg and the set walks away.

Rian- he does a 360 and he gets an IOI from a target. He reengages his target. He is conveying the body language of an Alpha male. Mystery says from him to ask the friend if he can pull her away from the friends. He loses his window of opportunity.

Matt- he has AA and eventually musters the courage to approach. Tara comes into the set and backs him up. Tara ejects the set. Matt hits her with an opener he doesn’t lock into the set. He doesn’t number close and doesn’t pull the trigger.
