Gain Self-Confidence, Build Assertiveness and Self-Esteem with The Confident Man Program

Dear Friend,

Would you like to be able to:

• Overcome insecurity, self-consciousness and low self-esteem?
• Feel more self-confident, relaxed and at ease around women?
• Connect more easily and more deeply with the women you find attractive?
• Have more of your needs met, more easily?
• Get a better job?
• Earn a higher income?
• Feel more happiness, joy, peace and contentment?
• Live the life you want, on your terms?

Conversely, would you like to stop:

• Feeling inadequate, insecure and nervous; especially around women
• Feeling self-conscious
• Feeling like a loser
• Feeling lonely, depressed and anxious about life
• Feeling like the world is passing you by
• Feeling resentful with other guys who seem to have what you want
• Feeling resentful with women you find attractive, who always seem to be brushing you off

If so, we have a lot in common. You see, most of my life I’ve struggled with insecurity, nervousness, and low self-esteem. Especially around women. I’ve done a tremendous amount of research into this problem and come to the conclusion that there are three magic ingredients to solving all these problems so that we can live the life we were meant to live:

Confidence, Confidence, Confidence

Now I know you’re not stupid so you probably already realized this. In fact, really intelligent guys often are the ones who find it the hardest to feel confident around other people; especially hot women. This has certainly been my experience. We get stuck in our heads and end up not knowing what to say, or we say things that women don’t find interesting and they end up brushing us off; undermining our confidence with women even further.

So the real question is: how do you get confidence, if you don’t already have it?

There are two simple answers to this question:

1. Heal whatever traumatic things have happened to you in the past which undermined your natural self-confidence, especially involving your mother and father (Trauma healing).
2. Progressively expand your comfort zone around doing enjoyable things that you currently aren’t particularly comfortable with (Exposure therapy).

Is Building Confidence Really That Simple?

When I looked more closely at the problem of overcoming low self-esteem and a lack of self-confidence in my own life, I found a lot of snags that could get in the way of this simple formula.

Negative programming from parents or religion, traumatic childhood experiences, teasing, bullying, bad prior experiences with girls, difficult past relationships, negative thinking, anxiety, fear, and even a basic lack of self-love can all get in the way of applying these basic principles.

Plus:

• What if you don’t even know what you love doing?
• What if you’re so anxious that you don’t know where to start in expanding your comfort zone?
• What if your thinking has become so pessimistic that you can’t even envisage a more confident future with the girl of your dreams?
• What if your interactions with women just always seem to go so badly, you’ve given up?
• What if your parents or childhood religion just plain screwed you up?
• What if you just hate yourself or hate your nervousness?

Well, then you’re just like me. Cold comfort perhaps, but after seven years of research I’ve put together a step-by-step program to help guys just like us hit the ground running.

You see, I concluded that there are four main areas to master:

1. The way you think (your mindset)
2. The way you feel (your emotions)
3. How to attract and relate to women
4. Your general life skills, interests and hobbies

And these are exactly the areas covered in The Confident Man Program.

So Does It Really Work?

Great question! I can honestly say that women definitely respond to me differently now, and I really feel different inside. I’ve done every step in The Confident Man Program and I still keep practicing them: the more I learn, the more I realize how well this works.

If you’re a tough case like me: super nerdy, or really insecure, or just uncertain about where to begin, this program will save you a heap of time compared to what it’s taken me so far.

And if it doesn’t work for you, or you just plain don’t like it, I’ll give you your money back.

Is Confidence A Problem For You?

I know what it’s like to lack self-confidence, because I’ve been there myself. It’s horrible. When we lack confidence as a man, it shows up all over our lives like a bad rash. We feel:

• Shy
• Nervous
• Withdrawn
• Inferior to other guys
• Beat ourselves up
• Find it hard to make eye contact
• Have difficulty relating to women
• Always have to prove ourselves
• Avoid conflict
• Please other people ahead of ourselves
• Play the “Nice Guy” all the time
• Let other people walk all over us

When we lack confidence, we feel rotten inside. It effects absolutely every area of our lives.

And It Gets Worse

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg, because the way we act when we lack confidence affects all our relationships. Other people treat us the way we think we deserve to be treated. The problem just compounds itself and we end up feeling:

• Lonely
• Isolated
• Ashamed
• Rejected
• Anxious
• Afraid of approaching other people
• Scared of interacting with attractive women
• Single or in an unhappy or unsatisfying relationship
• Sexually frustrated
• Unemployed or unhappily employed
• Uncertain about our direction in life
• Underachieving and dropping out or becoming a workaholic and burning out
• Addicted to alcohol, drugs, gambling, work, etc etc
• Depressed and even suicidal

Lack of confidence makes us feel terrible about ourselves. We develop ineffective coping strategies, like avoiding uncomfortable situations, underachieving or becoming so driven to prove ourselves that we burn out. Yeah, I’ve been there too, and it felt awful. What we need in these situations is a true sense of inner confidence.

Women: The Ultimate Confidence Litmus Test

Women routinely say that the most attractive thing about a man is: confidence. That means that if you’re a man who lacks confidence, you’re hosed. Every move you make and every attempt to engage with attractive, appealing women will fail if you lack the confidence to pull it off.

Of all the areas of my life that were effected by the lack of confidence in my old self, my relationships with women were by far the most painful. Ouch. I feel bad just thinking back and remembering what it was like. The loneliness, the painful rejections, the failures, the cravings. It was horrible. Perhaps it still is for you. Confidence is the only way out.
