Way of the Superior Man

"I found its extremely helpful in terms of the concept of magnifying oneself's core desire and deep purpose. I believe thats the core thing for a man to deal with whatever his work or women. some people may find the author's wording a bit exaggerated, and some techniques could be suspected, but i recon that techniques cannot be aligned with the core information the author trying to communicate. For example, a man who s really good at chatting up women might have a lot of techniques to use when he meets a woman he s attracted to, but in the deep level his success with women is not due to his techniques really great, its because the person he is being. Someone may copy his technique and it might work, but he cannot success all day long because the person he is being. So it is as the world at large. Whatever we do, focus on techniques maybe helpful for a moment, it wont improve the core being which is on the deeper level; but improve the core being will guarantee that u will create ur own style of techniques.

"If you haven't read any other books about being `alpha' or don't know of women(!), then this is a good book to begin your journey with, otherwise there is nothing new here.

The best thing about this book is how easy it is to read, short and punchy chapters. I particularly like the practical advice he gives about the body - control, breathing etc... The language is rousing and memorable; it makes it easy recall parts of the book when you need it.

The book starts at a tremendous pace and almost takes your breath away but then begins to ramble a bit.
Honestly a chapter called "What she says isn't what she means"(!) - hence my comment about not knowing 'of' women. The book could have been shorter.

If you are a young man this might not be the best book for you, the book makes too many assumptions and it is definitely for the grown and serious.

"I found the language of this book to be quite over the top. I did not like his view on courting relationships. I laughed when I read that you should ask your friends to ask her's if she really likes you. You should be able to work it out for yourself. Most of his advice is with regard to matured relationships. I enjoyed his explanation of being on your own path and some over chapters on masculinity. The aurther' explanation on how to deal with your women and your emotions if she sleeps with another man or disrespects you publicly made me cringe.
I think that a lot of the praise for this book is relative to what is out there in other `self help' books on relationships. I think that one should read this book with a pinch of salt. The Book will make you think at least. "

"Amazing perspective, difficult to find. I finally read it (so many friends already had and recommended it). I found it highly useful. Does not pander to women like Venus and Mars - much more "down to earth" and male targeted - yet women seem to find it insightful too. You dont usually get this info from your buddies or the women in your life - but once you learn it they can all benefit from what you can share. Take your game to the next level. Very liberating read. I am surprised there are so few reviews - this is a hidden gem - straight forward, easy to absorb and unpretentious!!! Enjoy the book, your relationships and your life purpose man. "

"Deida is a great writer on masculine issues. This book covers a range of practical and spiritual topics about what it means to be a man, expecially in relation to your woman.

Short chapters, good sound practical advice and easily accessible language make this a great "Guide to Being a Better Bloke". Some of the language is a bit California psych for my taste, but don't let that put you off.....read and learn!"
