The Stylelife coaching team recently worked with our student body to conduct a thorough examination of the sticking points that hold people back in the field.

If you’re new to the area of social artistry, a “sticking point” is a hurdle or obstacle, that you just can’t seem to move beyond. Everyone has one, even the best pickup artists in the world. They all still have sticking points. The key is to identify yours and then bust through it.

Anyway, based on the input of people from all over the world, we ranked your sticking points in order of most common to know which sticking points are the biggest problems you’re facing in the field.

Here are the 3 BIGGEST and most common sticking points:

EARLY GAME -> APPROACH ANXIETY:
Not opening sets because of crippling approach anxiety.

MIDDLE GAME -> NO ATTRACTION/CONNECTION:
Getting stuck at some point after the opener and using material that doesn’t create attraction and connection.

LATE GAME -> NO KINO ESCALATION:
Not being able to physically escalate.

Identifying the “BIG 3” is only the first step to curing them. In the past few weeks we’ve worked to break down the field reports you sent in. As mentioned in various emails, Neil put us on a special project: we found and tested the perfect deadly combination to smash all three biggest, most common sticking points into tiny, gooey, has-been sticking point mush.

We code named this new weapon: “Style’s Sticking Point Destroyer Kit”

It’s not to be trifled with: Guys with crippling approach anxiety can become approach machines within 2 days of putting the kit to use. Guys getting stuck after the opener or with their routines not creating any attraction melt away within 4. By the end of the week, kino escalation flowsnaturally and easily. Over the last week we tried it out some of our newest students and it’s worked wonders. Here is where you can learn more:
