Why do some people need more runs of AM?

[Shannon]

There are a number of reasons why it takes multiple runs through. Maniac's got some of it; some guys are not starting at the same point that others are. Some personalities are not as compatible with easy growth as others are.

But there are also factors to consider along the lines of how much time is given to the use of the program, which version of the program is in use, and so on.

Each man has his own response. Some guys get all they need forever from one run through of 5 or 6, and others need refreshers, or multiple runs through. Permenancy depends on how deep the change is. Once it goes deep enough, it becomes self regenerating. I cannot say how many times a given man will need to run AM to get permanent results. For me, it was using Version 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 5.0. Each version was an order of magnitude more powerful than the last because my understanding was much greater each time I built it. I also came from a history of eing extremely weak and beta, and filled with fear.

Now with Version 5 and 6, it is possible to get it all in 1-3 runs. You guys have it much better than I and my early customers did.

In the end, every man is unique, and only he can decide whether he has achieved his goal after a given number of runs through.

Thank you I really appreciate the response! I'm curious too if you don't mind talking about it, I read that you had very bad social anxiety in the past.. How bad are we talking? And did each run of AM that you did slowly destroy all of your social anxiety? I always love hearing success story's of people who were socially awkward or horrible with girls and becoming players and social/sexual enigmas.

I'm not a player, and hardly a social enigma. I'm successful enough with women to make me happy. I'm always working on it, but there are a lot of factors distracting me from women such as business.

I had social anxiety so bad that it resulted in agoraphobia. I could not leave my house. At one point it was so bad that I could not bring myself to leave my bedroom. Even though there was only one other person in the house with me, and not even all the time. My social anxiety was about as bad as it gets. Forget answering the door. Forget going outside. Forget talking to strangers, or even neighbors. Forget going to restaurants. And meeting women? That was just a dream. If I wasn't aware of how to manifest relationships back then, I'd have had no sex or romantic relationships at all for 10-20 years.

Now, I love socializing. I am actually having a very hard time not going out all the time, although for me "going out" is not what it means for most of you. I like to go out to dinner and talk to my friends who work or congregate at the bar/restaurant. I don't go to clubs, or bars that don't have a restaurant attached.

But now, I meet new people all the time. I go to the mall and socialize with friends who I meet there as well. It's not hard for me to meet new people anymore. Wherever I go more than a few times, they get to know me, and I am missed when I don't show up for a while. (It's getting hard to balance all the places where people want me to be to see me at this point.)

On the woman front, I have pretty much whatever I want, whenever I want it. There are limits to my ability to pull women, of course, but they are dissolving. Most of my "failures" are really just me choosing not to pursue a woman because either she's involved, or because she's not worth my time. And when I say pursue, I mean make happen what I want to happen. Seducing a woman or getting her out on a date is just a matter of picking the woman and making a sufficiently sustained effort to achieve my goal. It's just doing the right things with regards to one particular woman, and doing them at the right time, for enough time.

It's not as easy when I am around other guys, bigger guys, better looking guys, but I can still do it. The question is, is the result worth the cost? Most times, the answer is no, so I don't spend time on that woman. Not necessarily because she's not good enough, but because her interests may be so strongly in another direction that I would have to pay a high price to get her, and then there would be no guarantee of keeping her. I'm not interested in one night stands, or dates that crash and burn.

So I'm selective, and my criteria are also different than most guys. I have learned the hard way that the more attractive a woman is, the less likely she is going to be worth the cost to have her. The more guys she attracts, the more likely she is to stray, lie, play head games, etc. I've had a lifetime's worth of being cheated on, head games, lied to and stabbed in the back, so I aim lower and choose women who are trustworthy and have qualities that make them enjoyable to me instead of just worrying about if they're super hot. I've dated super hot, and it wasn't worth it to me.

Maybe at some point in the future, I'll try that again. But for the time being, I'm happy just enjoying a woman's company without constantly wondering who she's texting, what she's saying, whether or not she's lying to me, and if she's going to go do drugs, get drunk, and/or screw one or more guys while she's at it, behind my back. Been there, done that, not going back.

My social anxiety died slowly over the course of all my runs through AM and SM. It wasn't an overnight thing, by any means. Slow and steady. It was SM2 that finally put it over the top and pushed me, literally shaking, into a restaurant alone. I used to be so self conscious that I couldn't bear the thought that someone else might see me eat. How ridiculous.

It took me a couple weeks to get comfortable with going out alone to that restaurant, and then after that I went to a different restaurant alone, and then another and another. I can only wish I'd had AM6 or even 5 when I first started. Unfortunately, I had to create it first.

But now, I love to socialize, and I find that I strike up conversations with interesting people and they with me on a regular basis. I also get a lot of IOIs from women. Sometimes I act on them, and sometimes I don't. It depends on the situation, and my mood. But I can. And life is 10,000% better now.
