Developed by Neil Strauss (Style) - New York Times Best Selling Author & World Class Pick-up Artist

(1) Acquire & apply knowledge in small chunks.
(2) There's no such thing as failure, only feedback.
(3) Always hold yourself accountable for your outcomes.*
(4) Learn actively, not passively.
(5) Don't mentally rehearse negative outcomes.
(6) Understand how your mind works: (a) Unconscious Incompetence- you do something wrong & don't know what it is (b) Conscious Incompetence- you do something wrong & you know what it is (c) Conscious Competence- you do something right with focused attention (d) Unconscious Competence- you do things right automatically.
(7) No pain, no gain.
(8) Don't look for approval from anyone, including family or friends.
(9) Be willing to test new ideas and approaches, even if they don't seem logical.
(10) Once something works, figure out how and why it works.
(11) If you don't know what to do, don't stop, ask someone for help.
(12) Surround yourself with people who know the material more than you do.
(13) Make sure that your ratio of effort to results is increasing.
(14) Finish what you start.

This list is slightly improvised by me to better relate to everyone. This list can be found in Neil Strauss' book The Stylelife Challenge- Master the Game in 30 Days. This is an absolutely incredible book not only about Venusian Arts, but overall self-improvement.
