Hey guys this is Andriy Snip. Thank you for watching Snip Reviews. Today, I�m here with
my friend George and we will be talking about The Tao of Badass.
So, you texted me several weeks ago and you were obviously excited about The Tao of Badass.
Aha�.
So do you remember of what made you enthusiastic?
Yeah, the thing that stood out for me that they have some very good general advice on,
on things that aren�t covered in traditional dating books. Which I think is quite unique.
So, they had the two sections that I thought were really good, or three sections that I
thought were really good. The section on learning how to deal with people at different levels,
different people with different attitudes towards you.
I think I just read it, that if a person is a seven, you just accept them, or something
like that, right?
Yeah, that�s exactly right and I think it�s pretty much spot on the money. So you know
you always want to play yourself as a nine, as a guy that�s happy to help other people,
and best way to do that is by pandering to the way that they behave.
So with someone who is very aggressive the best way to do it is to acknowledge them as
being a powerful person, outspoken, and so on and so forth. Where�s with the person
who is very submissive you should just straight up accept them without any question. Yes,
someone who is very cool and helpful you should do exactly the same thing back. You know you
can just be like a normal guy.
It�s pretty much common sense but the funny thing is a common sense isn�t so common
you know like a lot of people just don�t understand or don�t think about these basic
things you know just make a difference.
And when you think about like accepting people and everything, what kind of situations do
you envision, do you envision yourself interacting in a bar, do you envision hanging out with
your friends?
Everything�. It implies across the board. So, you know if you�re. If you�re hanging
out in a bar, and someone comes up to you, and is a bit loud and everything else. Go
back him, hi-five say �Hey man what�s up! That was pretty cool� or �You�re
funny ***� or something like that. And they�ll like you. If you�re working and
some guy comes up and he gets a little bit aggressive or competitive with you, talking
about how cool his stuff is and, you know, exactly the same sort of deal again, sort
of saying �Yes, man, that is really cool thing, that�s awesome!� without necessarily
trying to compete with him.
I�m sorry I interrupted your train of thought, you were talking about two things that you
got out of it (The Tao of Badass) and the first one was how to deal with different people,
and� This also a lot of very good psychological
advice in there as well I think. So, one part is also I think is very good, really quite
useful is the idea of how to go about breaking up with a girl properly. Because I think that�s
something were a lot of people falling out.
Because they don�t actually think about, they don�t necessarily think about the other
person�s welfare when they go through that process.
So, what�s a proper way to break up with a girl?
Well, I think the thing is to make sure that she knows you still think that she�s great,
and you know just sort of make your point as to why you need to break up with her. Or
why you don�t think it�s a good idea to keep seeing each other. And that should not
be something superficial like you know �I don�t think It�ll work� out or �I�m
not just ready to commit� or something like that. It should be something more along the
line you know like �You�re a wonderful person and I think that we can�t give each
other the attention that we deserve�. �You know, I�m moving to a different town and
I think that a long distance relationship, I am not going to be able to treat you way
the way you deserve to be treated�. And just really make a point to her that she�s
a fantastic chick.
Yes, I really do like that idea. Initially I thought about just disappearing but then
obviously just disappearing and just breaking up always sucks.
Yeah absolutely. It�s a pretty *** thing to do. Or, you know, like doing something
really horrible to her, or something like that. You know like if you were seeing her
for whatever reason then you were doing it because she is pretty awesome person and you
liked her. That�s the whole point of The Tao of Badass that you are not going to go
and date a girl that you don�t get along with. So, if you care about her but you realize
that things are not going to move on then, you know, the best thing to do is to make
sure that she knows that.
I think it kind of goes well with the notion that we are all nice guys, and being a bad
person will hurt you in the long term.
Yes, absolutely right. And there is a big difference between a nice guy and a boring
guy. Which is really what girls are talking about, what people are talking about when
they say �Oh, you know, I don�t like nice guys� or �Nice guys finish last�.
Learning how to treat a woman with respect is probably one of the most important things
you can do if you want to learn how to get good with girls.
I would imagine it is the last thing I would expect to hear from The Tao Of Badass but
I guess that what it is.
I want to change on topic a little bit. Was there something that you learned and you went
out and applied, and you noticed a difference in the quality of your interactions after
you read it?
Yes, absolutely, well learning how to deal with people, and I think that�s probably
the most crucial thing. And, you know, just having those different mindsets in my head
and going: �well, thing person is behaving in a particular way, therefore I know how
to deal with them, I know what to say to them�. And that just has so many applications that
goes beyond girls.
Sweet. You know what I just realized, literally talking with you right now, I just realized
that I have a tendency of pleasing everyone. And just as being a nice guy and right now
when you said that you should treat different people differently suddenly I�m thinking
of myself and what I want. And like all other people is like I just want to treat them all
I can equal as part of the interaction and see what�s the for me. So, I think like
me personally I just learned something valuable in this conversation.
Hey man! That�s cool, I am happy.
Alright, so my channel called Snip Reviews, so the reviews are meant to be super brief,
I wanna finish up with a little inspirational message from you to all the guys who are on
the journey of becoming better with women.
I think the two biggest things to focus on are yourself� and other people which is
kind of everything really. But what I mean by that is first is focus on yourself, build
your own confidence up and get to a point where you don�t need to worry about anything
on how it sticks on you, how it looks on you. Because that�s something that girls pickup
on like you would not believe.
And the other thing is once you go a little bit like that, find a girl that you like and
just spend time with her and enjoy her for who she is. And what you�ll learn about
girls and about yourself from doing that is going to absolutely blow you away.
Sweet! I love that. I love that. Alright, George, thank you very much, I am
sure my audience will appreciate it, thanks a lot!
Cool! See you mate.
