[X&Y] What To Do About Valentine's Day
Published: Tue, 02/03/09

IN THIS EDITION: OK, it's time for my annual "rant" on Valentine's
Day. I'll make sure this one's particularly productive, though.
=====
BECOME AN EXPERT PERSUADER
About six months ago I told you about Michael Lee's "Expert
Persuader In 20 Days Or Less" program.
If you'll recall, what I really liked about Mike's program wasn't
just the amazing value it packed for $47, but the fact that it blew
the lid off of the idea that you had to use "trickery" in order to
be effectively persuasive.
Mike's program talks a lot about leadership skill, and talks about
things like NLP and hypnosis in an upfront way that would really
raise some eyebrows in the Seduction Community, frankly. Nice.
I love new perspectives on things...especially character-based ones.
Apparently, TONS of you agreed. Mike's program proved to be VERY
popular with you...sort of to my surprise, frankly.
But the direct application to being The Leading Man is clear.
Every effective leader in history has had a strong power to
persuade, including the new President Of The United States.
Many of his secrets are IN THIS PROGRAM, no doubt.
So here's the crazy part. Mike got in touch with me out of the
blue a few days ago, saying that it was his birthday and that he
was ready to give my readers (this means YOU) a ridiculous deal.
He's letting you steal his program for HALF PRICE. That's a
whopping $23.50 for your light-fingered efforts:

This is only for YOU. You'll see that clearly noted near the top
of the page.
Mike made it pretty clear that he couldn't bundle in all the
bonuses for that price, but still. The core program is what you're
showing up for here.
And besides, if you have already acquired The Leading Man, then
you've got Mike's bonus package already. I've long since cajoled
him into letting me "borrow" that as part of the TLM system.
So check this one out. I really haven't seen a more complete
package of its kind anywhere.
This will prove immensely valuable in business and in your social
life, not just in your relationships with women:

Now, about Valentine's Day...
=====
WHAT TO DO ABOUT VALENTINE'S DAY
OK I have a confession to make to you. Actually two, if you get
right down to it.
First, I realize I mentioned something last time about sharing a
MISSION CRITICAL step in the next newsletter (meaning this one)
that every man must take before seriously upgrading his dating life.
Looking at the calendar I've surmised it's best to hold off on that
topic until the next edition. Because my second confession is
that I have to admit that Valentine's Day has this way of sneaking
up on me every year.
So THIS YEAR, I'm going to be intentional about giving you ENOUGH
TIME to prepare for this the most infamous of holidays...at least as
far as your relationships with women go.
Now sure, you know that deep down I'd love to join in the chorus of
"macho" websites that suggest you "just say no" to Valentine's Day
and just tell the chick(s) you're seeing that you don't "celebrate"
it.
Man, would I love to join that chorus.
After all, like I've shared in the past (as in, say, maybe a little
under a year ago?) this is yet another holiday that appears to have
been relegated to little more than a marketing bonanza for the
diamond industry.
And this no sooner than you swallowed hard and paid the credit card
bill from Christmas.
But this time, I've done some thinking. And I'm all but sure that
The Leading Man would rather take back Valentine's Day in a brazen
coup than surrender it to commercialism and...God forbid..."Mr. Nice
Guy".

now, do yourself a favor and give yourself a good laugh at Show #3)

That's right, instead of whining about how Valentine's Day forces
us guys to "put a woman on a pedestal" or something, I exhort you
to MAKE YOUR OWN RULES this year.
Embrace Valentine's Day...but make like Frank and do it YOUR WAY.
I say this because you, as a "Big Four" man, need to TAKE CHARGE
and build the habit of creating romantic moments that melt women on
a regular basis.
I say this because I've gotten a jolt of lightning recently that
screamed out, "Wait a minute, stupid, every woman in North America
is PRIMED--or make that HARD WIRED--to have her femininity ignited
on February 14th."
And I say this because, well, you really have no choice, buddy.
Valentine's Day falls on a SATURDAY this year.
Oh snap.
Face it, a couple of years ago, when V-day was kind enough to fall
on a Thursday, I laid out a step-by-step plan on how you could
literally date six or seven women at once and make all of them
thrilled with you over a four day period.
This year, you can tear up that game plan. Saturday night is THE
night. And there won't be any excuses.
This means several things.
First of all, if you have your sights set on one woman, it's a no
brainer. You make plans with her for the night of the 14th. And
you go with the flow, enjoying the heck out of a nice romantic
evening together with your favorite woman.
And if this describes you, you've been given a MASSIVE GIFT.
You see, every single fancy restaurant and swanky dance club in
your town is going to be BOOKED SOLID by a bunch of "Mr. Nice Guys"
lining up to spend $$$ on that woman they are trying to impress.
If Valentine's Day is on a Monday it's crowded enough. But a
Saturday? Are you kidding me?
This trumps even Valentine's Day on a Friday. After all, were that
the case you might be able to get away with planning something for
Saturday with her instead.
But dude...it's not like you can substitute Friday the 13th for
Valentine's Day and expect to get away with it. Bummer.
So you may be thinking you have to gut it out and fight the crowds
for the sake of "tradition" or something.
Forgettaboutit.
Like I said, this is the year you're going to TAKE CHARGE and MAKE
YOUR OWN RULES.
Instead of "celebrating" Valentine's Day, start "celebrating" the
woman in your life.
The year I met Emily, I did this to a certain degree by planning a
BACKWARDS evening.
That's right. I took her dancing at 7pm, hours before the crowds
arrived...and caught dinner at 10.30 or so, long after everyone else
was finished eating. All she remembers nowadays are the memories
themselves, not at what time they happened.
But really, I think you can be even more creative than that.
If you live somewhere reasonably warm this time of year (like
Australia, for instance) why not take it outdoors? Have you ever
planned a moonlight picnic? If not, do it. You're only five days
off from a full moon this year. Get away from other people and
ignite that femininity in private.
And I don't want any e-mails asking, "But Scot, how do I ignite
femininity? What does that MEAN?" Moonlight + Picnic + Feminine
Woman + Masculine Guy = Ignition. That's all it takes.
And even if you live in the northern peninsula of Michigan (or even
you, that one guy on my list who is somewhere in the friggin' Yukon
Territory), you can find a place indoors where it's just YOU and
HER and a bottle of red wine.
Even if that's at YOUR place, Cook For Your Date fans.
This year, YOU'RE going to make the rules. You're going to take
back Valentine's Day and replace commercialism with the REAL
meaning: ROMANCE.
Just you, her...the moment...and the memory. Take charge, make a
creative plan that bypasses the masses...and enjoy the ride.
But what if you're dating more than one woman these days?
Simple. Get out of town. Go on a weekend snowboarding trip to Sun
Valley, ID. Send every woman a card and tell them you'll spend
some "quality time" with them when you get back.
And yes...considering Valentine's Day is on Saturday this year, I'm
dead serious.
Finally, some of you are undoubtedly asking, "Well, what about me?
I don't even have a date for Valentine's Day."
Well guess what? Your concern is NOTHING compared to the myriad of
women out there who are SCARED STIFFLESS that Valentine's Day is
going to leave them dateless in its wake.
Women romanticize the living tofu out of February 14th.
And this is GREAT NEWS for you.
Why?
Because this means you have TEN DAYS to get your act together and
make a difference.
And without a doubt, the best place to get that job done is ONLINE.
Seriously, gentlemen. Every single woman with an online dating
profile is EXTRA MOTIVATED about now to make some serious time with
a great guy online.
This guy needs to be YOU.
But here it is...it's like the lottery. You've got to PLAY to WIN.
Have you been considering online dating?
Are you already online but haven't been seeing the success you'd
like?
Let me tell you, NOW is the time to get this under control. And
considering it's already going to be February 4th TOMORROW, you've
GOT to act FAST.
So here's what I've got for you.
RIGHT NOW...you can get Online Dating Domination for 35% off. But
you have to use THIS LINK with the "vday35" coupon already embedded
on the second page:
https://secure.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=1719052&couponCode=vday35
I realize time is of the essence here, so along with the usual
bonus of a f-r-e-e month of Power Sessions, I've also given you the
option of getting an hour-long 1-on-1 phone session with me
personally for just $97.
That's a $147 value, and you can take it or leave it. But I
strongly suspect that you may want to fast-track your online dating
success here, so I'm at your service to personally make sure that
happens.
