I wanted to share a bit on how my mind has shifted since considering seriously the 101 by Michael.
For a person that starts fresh, this focus on fixing your IG feels a bit "maniac". I mean, everybody can understand wanting to have a nice social network profile, but why so obsessed? That is the answer that finally clicked. And I'd like to share my train of thought cause I feel that this click is what helps motivation to follow through the MOA ideas.
After going over the list with IG examples, I started having a different standard to judge IG profiles. The idea that not only out-of-reach supermodels can have those appealing profiles is key. Once you assume that, then you start noticing how far are standard guys from that.
The next part of the click is realizing that everyone (even myself) constructs ideas about others based on how their IG profile looks. That includes even hot women.
The ultimate click is to realize how the numbers work for the MOA starting strategy of 'fixing your IG" (I am a STEM guy (quantum physicist) so I need to understand the quantitative aspects of things). If only 5% of guys have trendy profiles, and people (also women) judge you based on that, then that automatically puts you in the top 5%.
And the point is that everything in life (relationships, sex, businesses, success) is WAY EASIER when you are in the top tier (I do experience that myself in businesses and professional life).
