All hail, oh great and noble lord, for thous’t are…Epiphany.

Epiphany: a (1) : a usually sudden manifestation or perception of the essential nature or meaning of something (2) : an intuitive grasp of reality through something (as an event) usually simple and striking (3) : an illuminating discovery, realization, or disclosure.

I remember the first time I approached a girl, raised both my hands palm forward, and she placed hers there, so that we were holding hands. A total stranger, unique and beautiful. I realized then that words were only part of the game. The physical aspect of seduction was an equal, if not a more important part of the process.

While training you should always have a notepad in your pocket. This is your epiphany collector. If you don’t collect those lightbulb moments, the great and epic “Ahah!” moments, they might be lost and forgotten forever.

I’ve taught hundreds of students in the last four years and I’m in the incredible position to witness their epiphanies in real time.

“All I had to do was lean in to kiss her and she let me!”

“Those girls reacted well to my approach. It’s not that scary at all.”

“I didn’t know that incredibly pretty women were so much nicer to approach than less attractive women.”

“I never imagined that a 23 year old would date me, a 34 year old.”

“The less I think, the better I do.”

In order to make the most of these precious gifts of wisdom, you have to reflect on them. Take the time daily to sit in silence, with a pen and paper, and collect these transmissions. The act of writing will bring you great knowledge, depth, wisdom and power.

At the very least, make discuss your epiphanies with friends, in person, on a forum, or yelling from a park bench. The step of recording your insights to share will elevate you from student to teacher.
