Tape 1 – Side 1 

 

Yates: Welcome to the Ross Jeffries Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar. This is Tape 1, Side 1 

 

Ross: Speed Seduction Seminar 

Audience: (applause).  

Ross: Thank you. I know it's well deserved. I want to 
start out this morning by talking about why dating 
sucks and why you should not be dating and why 
speed seduction has nothing to do with dating and 
should not be used for dating. The problem with 
dating and the problem that dating poses for most 
men is, for most men dating is form of gambling. 
Okay? How many have ever heard the phrase "I got 
lucky"? All right. What does that imply? That means 
that something good happened to you, but you don't 
know how it happened, it was out of your control and 
you don't know how to reproduce it at will. In other 
words, it's pure roll of the dice. Dating is the 
equivalent of playing darts by being blindfolded, put 
in a dark room, spun around and throwing that dart 
hoping it's going to hit the target. So if you're sitting 
here in this room and you've tried everything you can 
within the dating game to make it work, if you're at the 
end of your rope, if you're feeling like a fucking 
failure, well, guess what? The game was rigged for 
you to fall. The game was never meant for you to 
succeed at it. Dating was meant for certain people. It 
was meant for the restaurant and the entertainment 
and the movie industries to make a lot of money. 
Okay? It was also designed for women to get free 
dinners, free shows and lots of nice gifts. Now, I'm 
not saying don't be generous. Being generous is fine 
after you've established that she's attracted to you 
and you're getting what you want from her. Okay? But 
dating is the method for attracting women, for 
seducing women, for creating an attraction, and 
having sexual choice and power pretty much sucks. 
Because dating requires that you supplicate. I want 
you to look at a word. This is very important. That 
word is supplicate. I want to tell you that he who 
supplicates, masturbates.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Do we know what the word supplicates means? 
Okay? Supplicate, to supplicate means to plea, to beg, 
to make earnest entreaties. Picture a king who has the 
ability to grant you a pardon or to kill you and you're 
accused of the crime and you crawl on your knees to 

the king and you supplicate him for a pardon. Just 
look at some of the languaging. Before we examine the 
languaging of speed seduction, let's look at some of 
the languaging of dating. What are some of the 
common terms? Ask her out, right? Okay. What else? 
Ask her out what are some of the things you think of 
when you think of dating? I have to ask her out. 
Where should I take her? Is she interested? Exactly. 
Will I get lucky? Does she like me? Okay. These are 
all thought forms of a supplicant, someone who needs 
to plea or ask or beg, and unfortunately the dating 
game leaves you two choices, well three choices. 
Choice number one is to be a nice guy, a. k. a. a 
supplicant. Choice number two is to be a jerk, a. k. a. a 
bully. Choice number three is sit it out and play with 
Mr. Winky. Okay. Which, given the circumstances, 
may not be that bad a choice considering the bullshit 
you have to go through. Okay. Speed seduction 
replaces dating. Dating is for what I call AFCs - 
average frustrated chumps. And this morning what 
I'm going to do is give you some basic 
understandings about how and why speed seduction 
works and then, later on, for the rest of the weekend 
we'll get into the actual tools. But my belief is if you 
understand what the tools are designed to do, and if 
you understand each step you're step you're  taking 
and what it's designed to do, you'll be able to use the 
tools much more powerfully. Does that make sense? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Now, they're different ways you can comment 
this material. You certainly could just memorize it, 
stupidly not understand what you're doing. And 
you'll have more success than a guy out there who's 
dating, but it's just not going to be nearly as 
successful as if you understand what you're doing. 
And one of the differences between me and other 
people in the NLP world is I want you to consciously, 
explicitly understand what you're doing step by step. 
Okay. I also believe the unconscious can make use of 
explicit to organize material. So, so far you following 
me? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Make sense? Okay, good. So, you can either 
be, in the dating game, you can either be a bully or 
you can be a supplicant. To me, these are not good 
choices. Now, I know a lot of people say, well the key 
to being successful with women is being a jerk, and I 
don't think that's true at all. I think that's the key to 
being successful with the wrong king of women. I 
think a key understanding for you guys to grasp, and 
this is very powerful, I really want you guys to get 
this. If you get this, if you get nothing else, if you just

get this one point, you will be so far ahead of the 
game when it comes to understanding, and pleasing, 
women and being successful with women, having 
them want to please you, that you will not believe it. 
Here's the understanding I want you guys to get. 
Okay. There's a difference. I want you to contemplate 
this. I'm not going to explain to you what the 
difference is, but I want you to think about it through 
the weekend. Through the weekend, I want you to 
think to yourself - what is the difference between 
getting a woman to submit and getting a woman to 
surrender? And how many people here in this room, 
honestly, have ever even thought about that 
distinction before this moment? That one distinction, 
I know you have Denny, that one distinction will take 
you further than having a Rolls Royce, a five hundred 
gallon drum of cocaine, or whatever it is you think, 
you think, is the key to being successful with women. 
Now let me make something clear. Within the confines 
of the dating game, you do need these t hings. You do 
need good looks, you do need a lot of money, you do 
need a lot of social status to be successful. There's no 
question about it. If you're going to play in that game, 
you need those things. Otherwise, you're shit out of 
luck. Okay. You're like a one-legged man in an ass 
kicking contest. How many people have ever felt that 
way when dating? Hey, I didn't feel I had a leg, I had a 
stump. Okay.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I'm serious. Let me explain to you some of my 
own personal history here on wh y I'm doing this work 
that I do. I used to get my ass kicked on a daily basis 
when I was younger. I mean really badly. I didn't have 
the slightest clue as to what to do, I had no 
confidence, I didn't know what I was up to, and it was 
a very bad thing for me, very bad time for me. So I 
understand, I don't care where you are, I don't care if 
you're a virgin and have never had a woman in your 
life, or you're a guy who's doing pretty well, but you 
wants to do better. I've been there. Wherever you've 
been, whatever you think you're challenge or your 
problem is, I've either had it myself or I've 
encountered it in the five years I've been doing this 
and I've solved it. Okay. We have a technology here 
that's taking care of all of this, I can think it is, I can 
promise you that, I can promise you that. But, here's 
the thing. Here's one of the big mistakes guys will 
make. I want you to avoid this. Guys will try to use 
speed seduction for dating. If they're going to try to 
use speed seduction to get dates and then they'll 
come climb right back in the same old game and get 
their butts kicked all over again. Let me give you sort 
of a metaphor. How many people know how human 

being survived before we discovered agriculture? 
What did we do for food? 

Audience: (Responses from  audience) 

Ross: We were hunters. Okay. Hunters and gatherers. 
So what did that imply? If we were hunters and 
gatherers, what did we have to do? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Right. We had to follow the game animals. So 
we were a nomadic society in everything, all our 
culture, a little introduction in elementary Marxist 
sociology here. Ross Jeffries is a Communist. He 
talked about - no I'm not. Okay. I'm a Libertarian. One 
ism that I never, ever experimented with was 
Communism. We were hunter/gatherers. Now, what it 
- within the realm of hunting - what would be an 
innovation, an improvement for a hunter? Someone 
think of an innovation for a hunter.  

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Sharper spear. Are we using these 
microphones? Okay, an M-16 - not an M -16.  

Audience: (Laughter from audience) 

Ross: Okay. That's quite a - sharper spear, right? 
Because the spear would do more damage to the game 
animal, maybe a better way to sneak up on the 
animals, better camouflage, okay, traps 

Audience: (responses from audience),  

Ross: bow and arrow, right. These are all great 
innovations. But guess what? You're still a hunter. 
Now, if you're trapped in the hunting mindset, and 
one day some guy named Ross, caveman Ross, 
comes up and goes "Ooh, ooh, I found this stuff 
called seeds and you know what we can do with 
these? You can plant them in the ground. I've been 
growing these plants and the animals come and eat 
the plants and I don't have to hunt. I just go right up 
to them and slit their throats and I have all the meat I 
want.” Now, if you were stuck in the hunting mindset, 
what would you do with those seeds? You'd say, 
"Oh, I know what I could do with these. I can eat them 
for energy on the trail when I'm running after the 
buffalo.” 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Okay. So, I have some incredible seed to give 
you 

Audience: (laughter) 

Ross: and - you've got to watch the gestures, Chris 
I've got some incredible seed to give you and I want

you to use it in the right way. Okay? I want you to 
forget about dating. Dating is for women you are 
already sleeping with. Okay. Let's say it with me 
DATING IS FOR WOMEN I AM ALREADY 
SLEEPING WITH 

Audience: (audience participation).  

Ross: One more time - DATING IS FOR WOMEN I 
AM ALREADY SLEEPING WITH 

Audience: (audience participation).  

Ross: Right, okay. Now you think I'm kidding. You 
think I'm kidding - I'm not. When you get good at 
these skills, an hour or two over a cup of coffee and 
she'll be saying - you wouldn't believe what women 
do when they really want you. Okay.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: All the same, you know the bullshit mechanism 
they use to spin excuses? "Well, I'd like to go out 
with you but my parakeet's having an existential crisis 
and I caught a tropical disease and I'm shrinking and 
by midnight I'll be three inches high, and you don't 
have car restraints to keep me safe at that altitude.” 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: The same mechanism works in your favor when 
they want you. There is a story on the SS list about; 
I'm trying to think which brother it was whose brother 
- I can't remember which brother it was. Bohunkus - 
Brother Bohunkus. Okay. That's what he called 
himself - Bohunkus. He used this stuff on this girl and 
she wants to go back to his place. So they go back his 
place. She says, "You know, it's awful hot in here with 
these jeans. Do you have a pair of shorts I can 
change into?" He says, "Sure.” He goes to hand her 
the shorts; she takes off her jeans - no panties. Okay. 
Puts the shorts on. She says, "I'm feeling kind of tired. 
Is there a place where we could lie down?" 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I mean all this stuff, okay. So, see it all depends, 
well let me give you another metaphor. Let me give 
you a different metaphor. Let me talk to you a minute 
about trains, because it actually ties in. I was in 
Boston cause we were doing a seminar in Boston. 
Remember the Boston seminar, was anyone there? 
And what happened was, I made a promise to a 
young lady who I was dating at the time that I would 
take her to New York City, that we would take the 
train to New York City because she's never been to 
New York City, and I promised her and she was one of 
those kinds of women who would consistently remind 
you of your promise until you kept it.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: And if you didn't keep it, woe betide you. But 
that's okay, I liked that. I need someone to keep me 
honest like that. So, we know something very 
interesting. We jumped on to this commuter train and 
all the adults immediately got busy. They all had their 
faces buried in some kind of reading material. They 
were businessmen and women reading the financial 
pages, there were students reading textbooks of 
various kinds, I saw someone studying a history book 
and then there was someone working on their 
mathematics, but all of the adults immediately were 
preoccupied. Now, sitting directly in front of us was a 
mother with her young daughter. The kid was maybe 
four years old - right around your age range, guys 

Audience: (laughter) 

Ross: and the kid was obviously excited about this 
trip. She was dressed in her best dress, she had a 
ribbon in her hair, she was just so excited. And her 
mother was sitting by the window and this kid was 
having a fit, going "I want to sit by the window, I 
want to see, I want to see, I want to see.” So the 
mother got up and the kid was wide-eyed and glued 
to the window. And I thought what a great thing. 
What a great thing to have that ability to look 
through the window of wonder. And everything you 
see in front of you is a miracle, everything you see is 
an opportunity to learn and to be excited and to see 
something new and interesting and different, to open 
and expand your mind. And as we made our stops 
along the way, when the train would pull into a 
different station, the kid would go, "What's this, 
what's that?" I was playing games with her. I'd say, 
"Oh, that's a magic dragon's tail.” It was a piece of 
paper fluttering. So, we had a really great time and as 
we were exiting the train, I thought "What a 
wonderful thing to have that ability to open your 
mind to wonder, open your mind to a sense that 
anything could be possible, that everything was 
new.” And then, as I walked past the engine, I 
thought, "You know, on the other hand, it's really 
great to know that there's a very clear-headed, 
practical-minded engineer running this thing.” Cause I 
don't want this wonder-eyed kid pulling all the 
switches. I don't mind if she goes up there and looks, 
but I don't want her hands on the dials. So, it also 
very important to, you know, with something like a 
train, to have a very practical, analytical, practical 
application mind. But I thought, what a wonderful 
thing if a person could experience both of those. 
That's when real learning would take place. And, the 
thing about trains, I've always liked trains. I remember

when I was a little kid, we lived pretty close to a rail 
line. And I could hear them at night. I could hear the 
whistle going, "Whoo, whoo.” And I would imagine it 
was a circus train pulling out to go to a new town to 
entertain, and I thought man, that's really cool. Now, 
there's all sorts of trains. In World War II they had 
something called munitions trains. Now, munitions 
trains were very interesting. They were essentially 
five miles of target. Okay? And the first no smoking 
compartment was created for ammunition trains 
because, you know, they had bombs, and gas and all 
sorts of things that were highly explosive. And, you 
know, there are cargo trains of various, different 
kinds, there are circus trains, and then, there's my 
favorite kind of train, the bullet train. There's no need 
to take notes here .  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: The bullet train, the bullet train, comes from a 
country called Japan. Now, the Japanese, to my mind 
have gotten a very bad rap, a very bad rap. They've 
gotten a bad rap as being imitators and idea thieves 
when, in fact, that's not true. In fact, what the 
Japanese do is, they take what works, they only take 
what works, from the best of everything and they take 
the best of what works and that's what they use and 
that's only what they use and they throw everything 
that doesn't wo rk out. They put everything that does 
work together into something that's wonderful. Now 
here's the cool thing about bullet trains. Your average, 
normal train does maybe 60-65 miles an hour tops, 
maybe 70. Bullet trains can do 185, 190 - 200 miles an 
hour. Now, how do bullet trains work? They actually 
levitate above the tracks. Bullet trains do not run on 
the tracks. They're magnetically levitated off the 
tracks so there is no friction; cause friction is what 
slows you down. Okay? Now, how many people think 
a two-mile long train doing 195 miles per hour is 
levitated? You got to figure it's levitated at least six 
inches, right, maybe a foot? Uh uh. You know how 
high they're levitated off the track? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Like a quarter of an inch, a fraction of an inch. 
Just that much difference in perspective makes such 
an incredible difference in performance. From friction 
and problems and to, whew, smooth 195 miles an 
hour. So, really the most important kind of train that 
you need to concern yourselves with are trains of 
thought, because it's your train of thought that 
determines what destination you're going to reach. 
And if you've been reaching a destination that's 
wank-off city it's because the track you're running on 
doesn't work for you. It's time to pull the switch and 

create a new destination and lay some track that 
works for you. And also consider that if that woman 
hasn't yet discovered how wonderful and attractive 
you are, guess what? Simply cause she's on the 
wrong train of thought. It's your job with speed 
seduction to put her on the right train of thought. So, 
with that in mind, let me talk to you about the first rule 
of speed seduction, the first rule of powerful 
persuasion of any kind that you want to do. It sound 
interesting? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: By the way, there will be times during the 
seminar when it's appropriate to take notes. On the 
other hand, there'll be other times when it's 
appropriate to look up here. You can take notes right 
now, this is okay. By the way, this is in the notes that 
we're going to be handing out. Do we hand out notes 
this time? They got them? I'll need a set during a 
break. We'll take frequent breaks, so I don't need it 
now, I'm cool now. The first rule I want you to get this 
is profoundly powerful - you can look up here cause I 
want you to understand it and then you can take 
notes. This rule is profoundly powerful for any kind 
of persuasion you want to do, but so important for 
seduction. That rule is whatever you can get a person 
to imagine, does everyone have an imagination here, 
does anyone think they don't have one? I was told by 
someone, "You can't talk about imagination to 
engineers.” 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Well, engineers have great imaginations. They 
have to picture all this shit. They've just been taught 
that they're not imaginative, but in fact they are, 
okay? That's essentially the Wright Brothers were 
engineers, and damn good ones. By the way, they're 
an inspiration of mine. Go get a biography on the 
Wright Brothers to see all the technical challenges 
and all the failures and learnings they had to 
consistently overcome to create an airplane. They 
were massive. And they were blazing a trail, there was 
no one going ahead of them. Okay? Whatever you 
can get a person to imagine will be perceived by that 
person as being their own thought because they 
imagined it, and, therefore, they will not resist it. I'll 
say it again. Whatever you can get a person to 
imagine will be perceived by that person as being 
their own thought because they imagine it. Therefore, 
the first rule in seduction is to capture and lead the 
woman's imagination using your language. It's in the 
notes there somewhere, don't worry about it though, 
you need to be paying attention up here, okay? I'll 
say it sufficient times and you'll have to plenty of time

to write it. But I want to explain it first. Here's the 
problem with writing as you're listening. You're not 
really getting the understanding. I'll give you plenty 
of time to write. I'll want you to really make sure you 
really understand what I'm saying. Okay? Capture and 
lead the imagination with your language. Now, that's 
not such a bizarre idea, its not so untested as you 
might think. Think about it. It's the basis for political 
oratory, I mean, may he bum in hell for all time in a pit 
of feted cement, but Adolf Hitler captured and led the 
imagination of a nation and made them all go 
psychotic. Okay? Martin Luther King, a good 
example, captured the imagination of a group of 
people, led them to make massive change, okay? 
Capturing and leading the imagination using language 
is the basics of political oratory; it's the basis of 
religious conversion. How many people here have 
ever seen a really good Southern Baptist tent 
revivalist preacher? Those boys make me look like a 
piker. Okay. They are good. Now, I'm not mocking 
anybody's religion, I'm just talking about the 
methodology they use to deliver the message and 
they are real - those of you at home will hear a sound - 
it is me copiously ejaculating - no it's 

Audience: (laughter) 

Ross: I'm pouring water, I'm now changing it into jiz - 
no. It's the basis of all good literature. What does a 
good writer do? He captures and leads your 
imagination using words. It's the basis of poetry, it's 
the basis of theater. All I'm doing is coming on and 
going, "Dumb shits, stop with this dating crap and 
use something that's been used for thousands of 
years in other areas. Let me show you how to use it 
with precision so you can stop all the guesswork. By 
the way, inevitably when I'm on the radio someone 
says, "What about relationships, why are you against 
relationships?" I'm not. But I am against relationships 
through default because here's what happens for 
most men. We can all share this in this room because 
we know it's true for mo st of us at one point in our 
lives or another. For most men, when we get into a 
relationship it's because we accidentally found 
someone who's attracted to us and will let us have our 
sexual release. Okay? For most men, they don't get 
into relationships because they have a lot of choice, a 
lot of opportunity, a lot of power, and they finally met 
someone who meets all their standards. They get into 
what I call relationships by default. Okay? They're not 
in that relationship because they have a lot of choice; 
they're in there because it's the best they can do. It's 
like you're starving in the desert and someone drops 
you a frozen package of Kraft macaroni and cheese.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Now, Kraft company, I love your product, I eat 
it, please don't sue me, but I'm saying you're going to 
gobble that down and anyone who tries to take it from 
you, you're going to kill them. And maybe if you see 
the opportunity to go have some applesauce over 
there, you'll lie and go, "Kraft macaroni, you're the 
only one for me - I'll be right back.” Okay? The reason 
why men behave unethically 

Audience: (laughter) 

Ross: well, the reason why men behave unethically 
and they're dishonest is because they're in conditions 
of scarcity. Okay? If you're a multibillionaire and a 
quarter drops out of your pocket, you're not going to 
go scrabbling and stomping on people to get it. 
Okay? No one wants to talk about the sexual 
starvation of men, but I will talk about it. Okay. And 
it's there primarily because the system that you're 
given to use to get your sexual satisfaction doesn't 
work. It's not your fault. If there're people here feeling 
like utter, abject failures with the dating game, wake 
up, it's not your fault, the game is rigged against you. 
Okay? So, the way to get out of all that is to learn to 
capture and lead the imagination, and that's what all 
of speed seduction is about. And, see, the AFC, the 
average frustrated chump, who's still hunting the 
buffalo, so to speak, is ignoring the seeds of wisdom I 
want him to swallow, He asking himself questions like, 
"Where should I take her? How much money should I 
spend? How should I dress?" The questions I want 
you to ask is the following question, learn to ask 
yourself this question and you'll do wonderfully well. 
The question I want you to learn to ask yourself is, 
"How is this communication, " I will repeat this three 
times so you'll have plenty of time to write it down, 
"How is this communication structured to capture and 
lead her imagination?" "How is this communication 
structured to capture and lead her imagination?" You 
see, part of learning a new set of skills is to learn to 
think completely differently. What makes speed 
seduction work is it's so outside the box. Now, for 
those of you who at first will find this foreign 
sounding and really strange and different, that's only 
a measure of how powerful it will be for you. To the 
extent that is completely different from the way you're 
used to thinking and you're experiencing some 
confusion, that's only a sign that it's completely 
outside of what you've been doing and that's a 
measure of the results you're going to be getting 
because it is so different. Okay? If you're used to 
riding a horse and buggy and I come along and give 
you a horse with a whip, it's not that much of a 

background image

difference. If I put you into a Testarosa, okay, it's a 
big difference and you're going to be confused by the 
controls, but you'll go a fuck of a lot faster. And you 
won't have to put up with the stench, okay? All right? 
I teach a lot of metaphors and I'm vulgar cause I like it. 
So, this is a very important question to learn to ask 
yourself. So instead of thinking, "Where am I going to 
take her on the next. no, how is this communication 
structured to capture and lead her imagination? Now, 
a couple of things about the language patterns. These 
are some understandings I want you get, and you 
don't need to write this down, this is something you'd 
understand. Another problem that guys typically 
have is they; they view the patterns as something 
from Mars. When you first, and we'll being going 
through at least half a dozen patterns here word for 
word, when guys hear the patterns, they go, "Ross, 
this sounds so strange, so foreign. Have you ever felt 
an incredible connection with someone? You know 
that click, right there, that just makes you feel totally 
drawn to this person. I mean, Ross, that sounds so 
goofy, that sounds fruity, it sounds gay, it sounds 
completely outside the realm of anything human. 
Where did you get this stuff' I was talking to Brother 
Covey who's one of my marketing consultants and I 
said, "You know, if I'd told people I'd channeled this 
from a ten thousand year old alien from planet Bogo, 
I'd probably get ten times the number of people in my 
seminar.” Look, I didn't just make the patterns up out 
of thin air. I got them from observing how women 
think and speak in any case. And I them from 
observing the natural processes of how things 
happen. This is another point I want you to get. 
There's no such thing as love, there's no such thing 
as attraction, there's no such thing as seduction. And 
I know for many of you, you're saying, "That's just 
the problem, Ross, there's no such thing for me, 
they're just playing with Mr. Winky.” 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Now here's what I mean. When I say there's no 
such thing as attraction, there's no such thing as 
confidence, there's no such thing as love, I'm not 
saying that people don't experience these. What I'm 
saying is they're not things like a glass or a magic 
marker. Now, I know those of you who are 
metaphysicians will say, "Well, Ross, these aren't 
really things anyway, they're just an ongoing key to 
the logical process in the intellect of human existence, 
" in which case I'll slap you in the face very hard.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: But my point is, watch how language affects 
you. I mean, the presupposition of our culture is so 

locked into your thinking that it becomes impossible 
to think outside that box unless you run into a maniac 
like me who hammers you really hard for three days. 
Think about it. Well, I wasn't attracted; she wasn't 
attracted to me. What does that imply? It implies that 
attraction is just a thing that is either there or it is not, 
or it implies that attraction is like porridge in an 
orphanage - you're only doled out so much on your 
plate and the best you can do is go, "Please, sir, I 
want some more.” And maybe you get a little bit more, 
but usually you don't. Okay. Attraction is not a thing; 
it is a process with a structure that takes place in the 
human mind and body. This is a primary 
understanding for those of you who want to learn 
NLP, that everything that happens to and with 
humans has a structure and a process. If you 
understand the structure and process, then you can 
recreate it at will - for the most part. Do you 
understand? 

Audience: (Response from audience)  

Ross: Now, so another mistake guys will make with 
speed seduction is they think the patterns, so the first 
mistake is they think the patterns are stuff I've made 
up out of thin air, and they're not. Okay. Second 
mistake they make is, they think because if someone 
talked to them that way, they won't respond well, that 
women won't respond well. Okay? How many people 
here have ever gone fishing? What did you bait your 
hook with? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Worms. Do you like to eat worms? You don't? 
What do you like to eat? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Why didn't you bait the hook with a baked 
potato? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: That's right, okay, so. These patterns are not 
designed to get man hot and horny, although I've had 
some weird fan mail lately.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: By the way, people say, "Why don't you teach 
with more reverence and seriousness? Don't you 
know ...” Cause then I'd have your fucking voice in 
my head and be a miserable, dried up old shrew.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Then it wouldn't be fun to teach. I mean, if I 
can't offend people, what's the point? 

background image

 

11

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Someone who I'm deeply flattered and honored 
to have as an admirer of mine said that Ross is gotta 
be doing okay cause he's offending so many people, 
so. Anyway, so, you have to understand these 
patterns are not designed to appeal to men, they're 
designed to appeal of women, and if you don't think 
they have an appeal to women, I have an assignment 
for you, which is go to your bookstore and go to the 
romance novel section and watch how many of those 
puppies go out the door. Okay? Romance novels 
Major Mark will come in and to you about. By the 
way, Major Mark will be here a little bit later. What a 
dedicated guy. He cut short his honeymoon to come 
and teach you guys. What do you think about that? 
Major Mark, Major Mark, Major Mark.  

Audience: (Applause) 

Ross: Pretty cool, pretty neat, pretty good. I was at 
his in a tuxedo, it was amazing. I was being blatant, 
just absolutely blatant, with this stuff. So, anyway. 
Well, I knew I'd never go back to Toledo, Ohio, for 
Christ sake.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: So, anyway. The third major mistake you can 
make with these patterns is to use them as a high-tech 
form of begging, is to view them as a shield you put in 
front of you - Gary, how are you? To use them as a 
shield you put in front of yourself, okay? "Oh, please, 
beautiful fox. You can accept me now cause I have 
these language patterns. Ha, ha, ha.” Okay. If you 
view the patterns as just a high-tech form of begging, 
they'll have no power, or very limited power. You 
have to use them with the right attitude. Understand 
something. I want you guys to get this. Just, let's play 
Let's Pretend. Let's play What if Okay? Can we play 
What if for a minute? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: What if what I'm teaching is really true? What if 
the patterns really do lead a woman into feeling 
absolutely wonderful things in her body, in her heart, 
visualizing amazing things, feeling all the things she's 
always dreamed of feeling. What if, with your 
language and language alone and your attitude, you 
really can, make her feel things that no other guy can 
make her feel? If you really can do that, do you have 
to approach her with a fearful, begging mindset? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Who's doing whom the favor in that case? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Who doesn't get that? I'm not saying do you 
believe you can go out and do that right now, but I'm 
saying hypothetically, theoretically, that's what the 
patterns really do. If I'm telling you the truth, if the 
people who are in this room who have used them will 
get up and tell their stories are telling you the truth, 
without exaggeration, if the patterns really can lead a 
woman into feeling really incredible things that no 
one else can make her feel, are you hurting her, 
should you feel guilty or scared or bad or like a 
beggar? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Okay, I'm telling you that that's what the 
patterns do do - ha _____ do do, yeah. Wow, wow, 
that was cool, _____ do do.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Someone's going to say, "Ross, was that a 
phonetic ambiguity you were using in an attempt to 
create a negative anchor for people to move away 
from when you said do do?" 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Cause, I notice you sort of like scratched your 
ass when you did that. Well that's because I have 72 
open anchors here and I've set them and this is one.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: No, my fucking ass itched, you know. You 
know people who teach NLP, you know what, they're 
human beings, a lot of them are fucked up 
egomaniacs, I plead guilty. Okay? So, don't go out of 
here ...  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I do. Listen, I'm just a guy who, I'll tell you the 
truth. I swear to you, I thank the universe, my higher 
power, whatever you want to call it, every day for the 
gift of being able to teach this and to learn this stuff. I 
feel profoundly blessed in this room. You have no, 
really, truly, you have no idea. That's one thing with 
all my skills I could not convey to you, But, so those 
are the ways to screw it up. Now the final way to 
screw it up, so I'm giving you, if you want to screw it 
up and make a mess of it, I'm giving you the formula 
on how to do it. The final way to screw it up is to 
have unrealistic expectations, on yourself. It takes 
time to learn this and the way to learn it is piece by 
piece. You do one little piece every day and then you 
add on a bit the next day and the next day. If you lust 
after results, you're going to fuck yourself up. Okay? 
You want to give yourself an opportunity to learn this 
at a pace that's a little bit uncomfortable. You want to 

background image

 

12

push outside of your comfort zone a little bit, but not 
too much. And you must be willing to fuck it up. I 
have said this over and over and over again and I'll 
say it again. The difference between winners and 
losers is that losers don't fail often enough, or they 
fall in the same way over and over and over again. 
Winners fail in different ways and often enough so 
that they can learn to do what they need to do to 
make things work. Now, the reason why I'm standing 
up here and you're not is cause I have fucked it up ten 
times more than all of you put together. I still go and 
fuck it up, even though I know what works, I'll try 
something new just to see if I can push the envelope 
a little farther. I have no problem with it. I will call, I 
will go on to listen, go ahead guys I tried this and it 
failed miserably, what do you think? Am I lying? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Not at all. I have no problem with going, "Hey 
tried that, didn't fucking work, what do you guys 
think? What should I do differently?" Okay? You 
must have the willingness. There's a difference 
between will and willingness. Can anyone tell me 
who's not a current student, someone who hasn't 
already heard this before? Can anyone tell me what 
the difference is between will and willingness? Take a 
stab at it.  

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Can we hear him with these microphones? Is 
there someone who should be putting a microphone 
in his face? Should he be standing there, who's doing 
that? 

Audience: "Willingness is being able to and will is 
having it your way.” 

Ross: I think that's pretty close. Will, to me, implies 
that you're stealing yours elf, you're making yourself 
ready to take that blow, okay? Like G. Gordon Liddy 
holding the flame under his hand, you know, to prove 
what a man he is. Something wrong with that formula. 
I remember when I was a kid we used to have punch 
in the arm contests. Well, if you're a man, you can 
really take it. I go, "You win.” You know.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: No, to me a man who outsmarted the other guy. 
He's walking around with a big, sore, fucking, 
throbbing arm and I'm skipping along the playground 
having fun. To me, will implies that boy that you're 
going to have to grit your teeth, but willingness is 
more of relaxed openness, that you're willing to pay 
the price. I had someone call me up and, I know when 
students are bullshitting me, so don't try it I've b een 

in this game too long. He called me up, and he said, 
"You know, I've got your home study course and this 
and that course, but I'm having trouble memorizing 
the patterns. I think I learn better visually. What video 
tape course do you have that you would  recommend? 
Cause I'm really having trouble memorizing the 
patterns.” I said, "No you're not.” I said, "It's not that 
you're having trouble memorizing them, " I said, "you 
haven't gone out and tried a single one, have you?" 
He said, "No, how did you know that?" I said, "You 
don't want to memorize better, you want a guarantee 
that you'll do it absolutely flawlessly without fucking 
it up in any way in the real world - and that's 
impossible. What you need instead of a guarantee is a 
willingness to screw it up a little bit. I guarantee you, 
you're going to trip over your dick the first few times.” 
Okay? Nothing to honk at.  

Audience: (Laughter from audience - horn honking in 
background) 

Ross: That's called utilization. Ross, when you gaze 
that way, you tilted your head at a certain angle. Was 
that an analog mark to 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Yes, that one, that one there. I'm gonna get 
lectured for doing that, but that's alright. Why don't 
we take a five minute break.  

BREAK 

Ross: I thought of one other area where people can 
fuck up with this, and that is, I guess way to illustrate 
this is to tell you a story. I knew someone who lived 
down in Kentucky and they wanted to learn how to 
drive,  

VOICES IN BACKGROUND  

Ross: so they went to their grandpa. They said, 
"Grandpa, what's the most important thing in 
driving?" And Grandpa said, "Well, the most 
important thing in driving is that you always check 
your instruments and make sure the car isn't 
overheating.” So they promptly climbed in the car and 
were driving like this and _____ !!! 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Now, about six weeks later, after they were out 
of the hospital, they went to their uncle. They said, 
"Uncle, what's the most important thing to know 
about driving?" The uncle said, "Always drive the 
posted speed limit.” So they jumped on the freeway 
and right in the middle of morning rush hour, they 
were doing 65. _____ !! So after they scraped them 
off the roadway, a couple of years later when they 

background image

 

13

were able to take another crack at it, they went to the 
wise relative and they said, "What's the most 
important thing to do when driving?" And the person 
said, "Pay fucking attention and drive as conditions 
permit you to do so safety.” Okay. Now. People say 
to me, "Ross, I tried the pattern exactly the way you 
told me to and it didn't work.” No, no, no, listen to me. 
The patterns are not rules. The patterns are only 
examples of the kinds of communication that you 
want to be doing. Here's another key to 
understanding. Remember the key to understanding? 
I said there's a difference between getting a woman to 
submit and getting a woman to surrender? Just very 
briefly, let me touch on something else. It's what I call 
- Major Mark taught me this - another great hurrah for 
Major Mark. Major Mark.  

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: I won't encourage him to talk more about this, 
but Major Mark taught me a word. The word is 
compartmentalization. Compartmentalization. Now let 
me tell you what this means. It's not that women aren't 
as sexual as we are. Women are equally sexual 
creatures, but they're sexual in a different way. Men, 
our sexuality is always there, it's always present. We 
can be doing something and a beautiful babe walks 
by and sproing we want to spray our seed. Okay? To 
be crude about it. Women have sexual thoughts as 
often as we do, but they compartmentalize them in a 
different part of their mind. Our sexuality is diffused 
all throughout our thinking, our breathing, our 
moving, you know. Men will basically stick it in a tree 
stump if they had to. Well, okay. It wasn't exactly a 
tree stump. Was it a bush or a tree stump? 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: But anyway, ha ha ha, my point is, my point is 
this. My point is this - that women's sexual thoughts 
tend to be locked away in a different compartment in 
their mind. So here's the thing I want you to 
understand. There are different places in a woman's 
mind. There's the place where she thinks about the 
mundane, ordinary, day-to-day shit that she has to 
get out of the way, like doing her laundry, like taking 
her car to the mechanic, like paying her bills. The 
problem when you're a dater is usually you get stuck 
into that part of her mind, something she has to get 
rid of or take care of. You get it? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: But the patterns are examples of the kinds of 
communication that open up that other part of her 
mind -that part where she puts her sexual thoughts 
and fantasies and romantic ideas. You understand. 

But they're not rules, only examples. Do you 
understand me? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Are they examples that will work for you? But 
they're only examples. That's why when we go 
through them, I'm going to show you how I thought 
them up and how they work so you can make up your 
own. Do you get it? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: I know some people are sitting here thinking "Is 
it important that I memorize all the patterns word for 
word". Well, it's important to memorize at first, at first, 
but then what you will find yourself doing is making 
up your own stuff. That's what I want you to do. 
When you can come back and show me something I 
haven't made up, I jump for joy. That great cause I can 
go out and steal it.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I don't mean steal it to sell it. I mean steal it to 
use it with women. Notice I didn't say on women, I 
said with women. The patterns are not something you 
do to a woman. Some of you still, I mean, I had a guy 
say, "Ross, you know, I practiced. When I want to go 
out in the real world, I just can't do it.” I said, "I know, 
cause you think the patterns, running patterns with a 
woman, is sort of like doing a minor crime, like picking 
her pocket or stealing her watch or grabbing her ass.” 
He went, "Yeah, how did you know that?" Cause I've 
been doing this a long time. Okay? I've been doing it a 
long time. Yes, you have a question - you're 
scratching your head.  

Audience: Would you give a brief definition of what 
is a pattern for the newcomers? 

Ross: A pattern is a language construct you use to 
create a specific state of mind in that woman. For 
example, you want her to feel fascinated, so you use 
the fascination pattern. You want her to get horny, 
you use the blowjob pattern. Okay? Whatever it is. 
The pattern is a language construct that you use to 
create a mindset, a certain emotional state or state of 
mind in that woman. Okay? Yes sir, you have a 
question? 

Audience: By language construct, do you mean like a 
series or combinations of phrases, words? Ross: Yes, 
exactly right, exactly right. You got it. Okay? Now, 
notice I said something there in answering your 
question. This brings up another interesting point. I 
said state of mind. Okay? Understand, there's a key to 
understanding this, and that is altered states of

consciousness. Write down altered states. Now, all of 
you have been subjected to some very  serious mind 
programming when it comes to the subject of altered 
states. When I say altered states of consciousness, 
what imagery comes into your mind, what thoughts 
come into your mind, when I say altered states, what 
do you think of, what do you picture ? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Drugs. What else? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Horror movies. What else? 

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Timothy Leary.  

Audience: (Laughter and response) 

Ross: Flotation chamber. Hysteria. Orgasm. That is an 
altered state, isn't it? For the most part, were 
programmed to view altered states as something to 
avoid. And throughout human history, authorities 
have attempted to control altered states. Churches 
have told you any other altered state but praying 
within the walls of their church is evil, wrong, bad, 
and a thing of Satan.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: By the way, to borrow a joke from Richard 
Bandler, a people said, "Ross, you're in league with 
the devil.” "Well, I'm not in league with him, but I 
have worked for him on occasion.” 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I don't steal jokes, I give full credit to the big 
guy for that. That's his. I don't know about you guys, 
but I'm already having way too much fun. Hello John.  

John: Hey.  

Ross: Good to see you. John is one of our terror 
students. He's really good.  

Audience: (Responses) 

Ross: So altered states of consciousness, altered 
states are really neutral. You can use altered states in 
a good way. Okay? Now I'm here to tell you that a lot 
of speed seduction has to do with what altered state 
you want to design for yourself and what altered state 
you want to design for that woman. Now let me give 
you an example. Pay attention up here and ignore him. 
Let me give you an example of altered states of 
conscio usness. Here's something you should 
understand. Beautiful women put men into altered 
states of consciousness. You can take a guy how 

many here have a highly technical job that requires a 
lot of focus and quick thinking? What do you do sir? 
You, yeah you.  

Audience: Computer programming.  

Ross: Okay. Computer programming.  

 

Yates: This is the end of side one.

Tape 1 – Side 2 

 

Yates: This is Side 2 of the Ross Jeffries Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar.  

 

Ross: Here's something you should understand. 
Beautiful women put men into altered states of 
consciousness. You can take a guy - how many here 
have a highly technical job that requires a lot of focus 
and quick thinking? What do you do sir? You, yeah 
you.  

Audience: Computer programming.  

Ross: Okay. Computer programming. You need to 
make - Hello Brother Amy - they'll leave you alone. 
Come on and sit down. Okay. So. When you're doing 
your computer programming job, you have to think 
really clearly, don't you? Yeah, but if you took a 
Penthouse Pet in a thong bikini, they put lee on her 
nipples, they've rubbed her down with oil so she's 
glistening as her taught, muscular body walks by. 
Okay? Would you be able to focus and concentrate? 

Audience: I probably make a lot of software with a lot 
of bugs in it.  

Ross: Yeah, okay.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: So, my point is this. What happens is beautiful 
women tend to put men in a state of sputtering, 
mindless lust. Just as an illustration here, I brought a 
metronome. This is a really good tool that everyone 
should buy. I got it at a music store, okay? Here's 
usually the speed at which you speak, which is an 
average looking woman. And here's the speed at 
which you speak if she's somewhat attractive. Here's 
the speed at which you speak if she like an utter ultra 
babe. And here's what happens when she's a 
goddamn goddess.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: You're flat-lined. Your brain waves are gone. So 
granted that you're gonna go into an altered state. 
Why not, why not design in the altered state you're 
going to go in to. What if you could go into an altered 
state that had maybe a little bit of lust, just to keep 
you motivated, but also had a massive amount of 
clarity, cockiness, intuition, having really great 
intuition, creativity, fun, playfulness. What if you 
could design in the altered state of consciousness 
you were going to go into such that the more 

attractive you found her, the more charming, the more 
intuitive, the more creative you were around her. 
Would that be great? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: And what if when you approached her, she 
picked up on that energy so instead of her altered 
state being one of terror, her altered state was one of 
hmmm, this guy's cool, I've got to find out more about 
him. Would that be cool? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: No, it wouldn't be cool? Well, you're not 
answering.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I'm gonna zap you. Okay. So. Does this all make 
sense? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: No, someone said no? Okay. Understand, I'm 
not asking can you do this now. I'm simply saying 
does it make sense. Do you see how different t his is 
from the dating mindset? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: We used to do it, I don't do it anymore, but, 
you know, we used to do a contest. The contest was 
who spent the most money on a woman and gotten 
nowhere, gotten nothing.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: So, I'll open the bidding with about $350. Can 
anyone top that? Who spent more than that? Come 
on, fess up. Brother Phoenix, have much have you 
spent and gotten nowhere? 

Phoenix: I'd have to say about $5, 000.  

Ross: $5, 000? Who, who was she, what was the 
circumstance? 

Phoenix: It was a dancer who was also a Playboy girl, 
or Playboy Bunny at one of the Clubs, and when I 
was younger and had lots of money, wined, dined her, 
flew her places, never got anything.  

Ross: Did you get a warm handshake goodnight?  

Phoenix: The most I ever got was a kiss on the cheek.  

Ross: Oh, you didn't even get the old warm 
handshake, huh? Wow, okay. So, you know, we won't 
have to worry about any of that. Now, loser, no - who 
said that? 

Audience: (Laughter) 

background image

Ross: Who said that? Bad boy. He said loser, oh, no, 
no, no, no.  

Audience: Ex-loser.  

Ross: Ex-loser.  

Audience: (Laughter and applause) 

Audience: ... if the walls could talk.  

Ross: Ali. Hi, my name is Bob and I'm a wankaholic.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Hi, Bob. Keep coming back- it works. Well, if it 
works, why do you have to keep coming back? Uh, I 
don't know, never mind. Okay. Now, I'm going to 
e-mail, I'm going to get mail from AA, shit, that's all I 
need. Okay, so. We're almost ready to get to the meat 
of the seminar. There are basically, there are three 
parts to speed seduction that we're going to be 
teaching you. Throughout the weekend we'll be going 
back and forth through all of these. Your state, 
designing your altered state of consciousness that 
you want to be in. The seductive language that lets 
you capture and lead her imagination and third piece 
of speed seduction, which to me is the most 
important, actually, and the most difficult to design. 
This of all the, I think, of all the challenges I 
personally face, this is the most difficult. And this is 
an example of how its continued to grow, the 
conversational frameworks that let you do all this and 
make it sound like an ordinary, normal, innocent 
conversation. This is very important. You know, you 
want to be able to Now I know some trainers who 
have some good level of skill at teaching language 
and languaging and language patterns, but they 
conveniently leave this out. Now, they may be very 
impressive in the seminar room. They can get you up 
here and do all sorts of great language patterning, but 
the problem is what works in the seminar room may 
not work in the real world. Why? Because the 
presupposition of being in the seminar is you're there 
to cooperate with the instructor. Okay. If you walk up 
to someone without the right conversational 
framework outside of the seminar room and start 
eliciting their values or whatever without any of the 
right introduction or conversational framework, 
they're going to look at you like you're fucking Charlie 
Manson. Or they won't know how t o respond simply 
because they don't know what you're talking about. 
Okay. This is a very important piece and throughout 
the weekend we're going to be going/alternating back 
and forth between these three things. Does that make 
sense? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: That okay with you? I don't care if it's okay with 
you or not, cause that's what we're going to be doing. 
All right, any questions so far?  

Audience: No 

Ross: You having fun yet? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Good. Man, we're going fast. All right. Couple 
more big chunk pieces and then we'll be ready to go. 
We'll get to actual patterns, weasel phrases, trance 
words, all that other good stuff, Yes sir.  

Audience: Are you going to indicate what is in the 
notes and what we need to write? 

Ross: I'll tell you when to write, okay? I'll tell you 
when to write. There's going to be so much repetition 
that you'll get this whether you write it or don't. The 
important thing to me is not do you write it but do 
you understand it. And they are going to be certain 
things, in fact, there are going to be certain points in 
the day where I'll say, "Okay, stop, pick a partner and 
explain to him what Ross just said. Go teach your 
partner what Ross just said.” The way to prove to 
yourself that you really got it is if you can explain it to 
somebody else. So, there will be points during the day 
where I'll go, "Tell this person the most important rule 
for persuasion and why it's important.” So, don't 
worry about it. My answer is don't worry about it, but 
if I need to you write, I'll tell you specifically you 
should be writing. Otherwise, don't write. Okay? Does 
that answer your question? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Good. Does it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. Alright. Don't get mad at me, I'm just 
trying to help. Yeah.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: You going to act impotent, you going to be 
impotent. Just for a wee bit.  

Audience: (Laughter) - That's why I don't act 
impotent.  

Ross: Good. Actually, Kim came up with a really 
terribly terrific impotence pattern. I don't want her 
doing that on me. She's ready to use it on any of you 
guys who try to _____ her, so leave her alone. Okay. 
I want to talk about the four doorways into any 
woman's mind. There are basically four doorways and 
the patterns I will teach you I will say, "This pattern is 
good for this doorway.” Now, I know, you're going to 

background image

 

17

go, "Ross, what doorway should I use?" Well, if you 
want to be able to get so much flexibility in your 
conversation that you can experiment with different 
ones. Okay? And, by the way, they're not in any 
particular order, it's not like molecular element 10, 11, 
12, 13. This is just the order in which I choose to write 
them down, okay? For all you literal minded ... okay. 
Doorway number one is the doorway of emotional 
connections. If you get a woman feeling emotionally 
connected, feeling strong, deep, positive emotions, 
connected to you. Okay? An example of that kind of 
pattern would be incredible connection, which we will 
go through, word for word. Okay. That's a very 
common doorway. For a lot of women, they will have 
sexual feelings but in order to feel comfortable with 
those sexual feelings, they have to feel this before 
they act on it. They want to feel some kind of 
emotional connection. Okay? Not like us. The second 
doorway is getting her visualizing. Okay. If you can 
get her to visualize scenes of terrific sex or you know, 
fantasies, that sort of thing, you get it? 

Audience: Yes. Ross: And, a lot of the patterns 
partake in this. There's not, I don't know if there's one, 
per se, that's only that. Number three is body 
sensations. Now what do I mean by body sensations? 
I mean a feeling of warmth flowing through her chest, 
the feeling of her heart pounding with excitement, that 
sort of thing, okay? Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: And, finally, the final doorway is asking 
ques tions, asking questions, that require her to 
access the core level of her identity to answer you. 
Asking her questions that require her to access the 
core level of her identify in order to answer you. Now, 
we're going to be demonstrating this throughout the 
weekend. This is basically eliciting her values. Now 
let me give you an example, just very briefly. I'm not 
going to do this pattern now, but just as a really quick 
illustration, if I said to a woman, "What's your favorite 
color?" She says, "Blue.” Does that really require her 
to access who she is at a deep level of her identity? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: Some people didn't answer. Who didn't answer 
that question? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: Does anyone disagree with that or not 
understand? You think asking what you favorite color 
is requires you to go into the core level of your 
identity to answer? 

Audience: Well, because colors have different 

representations, like, they say 

Ross: How long do you have to think about it to 
answer the question? 

Audience: Well, not very long, but you could turn 
around and associate that question with ...  

Ross: But I didn't. I simply said, "What's your favorite 
color, Amy?" 

Audience: I have ...  

Ross: Purple, purple, right? Green? Right? Blue and 
Ross.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: We're done. Okay. But if I said to you, but if I 
said to you, "What's important to you about running 
track?" then you have to think deeper, don't you? 
Okay, that's what I mean. She's being feisty and 
challenging now. I like that, good. You get this? So 
everything we're doing, that we're going to teach you 
in this seminar is designed to get into these 
doorways. Now, here's the thing, here's the principle I 
want you to get; this is very important. Very few 
people, very few people know how to feel good on a 
consistent basis, and even when they do, it's not a 
very juicy good. Do we have lights here that fade? Let 
me use this illustration. Those of you at home 
listening, you're just going to have to imagine this. 
We have some lights in the room that don't just turn 
on and off, you can make them brighter or dimmer, 
okay? These are the lights that do it? Look at these 
little phony lights here, okay? All right? 

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: Very few people know how to feel good on a 
consistent basis. They feel good when something 
happens to them. But even if they do, they're feeling 
good is like that. Maybe they're doing one of these 
four things. But if you can get someone feeling 
emotional connections and feeling great body 
sensations and visualizing amazing things and feeling 
in touch with the core of their identity, then you've 
got their neurology doing that, and that's what 
commonly known as being in love, okay? The 
neurology cannot associate the difference between 
and being madly in love with someone. Okay? So you 
want to be careful, because you can, you're playing 
with fire here, you're playing with nuclear energy. You 
get it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: And you can look at different combinations of 
patterns as different atom bomb designs, you know, 

background image

 

18

the fat man or the little boy, or you can just look at 
them as different combinations of patterns. I've got 
this sick, corny attraction to nuclear weapons, so, 
that's how I look at it.  

Audience: (Laughter) 

Ross: I'll tell you what really fascinates me about that 
is they took the most abstract principles of physics, 
the most abstract ideas about matter and energy and 
they translated it into an actual, physical object that 
worked. To me, that's magical. Forget about what they 
did, it's a horrible weapon, but, fact is, they did 
something very magical there, very magical. That's 
what we need, we need that kind of thought 
processing ability to solve the problems of the world.  

Audience: (Response from audience) 

Ross: Yeah, it's alchemy. Yes sir.  

Audience: (Question from audience) 

Ross: So, I want to start by looking at some of the 
basic building blocks of speed seduction which are 
weasel phrases and trance words and those sorts of 
things. You see, the way it works, the way we start to 
capture and lead the imagination is we use stories and 
descriptions. We use stories and descriptions. Now, 
why it wouldn't it work ... Amy is at a party. Why can't 
I just go up to Amy and instead of doing the 
fascination pattern, why can't I just say, "Amy, in a 
moment you're going to become totally fascinated 
with me.” Everything else will fade away and just my 
face and my voice will totally enrapture you, and you 
will find my voice penetrating deep inside who you 
are on the count three. One, two, three (snap of 
fingers)" If someone walked up to you at a party and 
said that, what would you do? 

Audience: I'd think they're nuts.  

Ross: You'd think they're fucking nuts, exactly. You'd 
flee, you know. So, the thing is this. Stories and 
descriptions are the vehicles we use to install states 
of consciousness in people, because, there are a 
couple of different reasons for this. First of all, you 
tend not to resist a story. If instead I walked up to 
Amy and said, "You know what I think is really 
interesting about parties, is to watch to see who's not 
connecting and who's really connecting.” I mean, you 
ever been to a party and you didn't really know 
anyone, so rather than trying to meet people, you just 
sat back and watched people? You ever do that kind 
of thing? And, you know, I think even though you 
may not know the people, you can tell if they're really 
connecting or not. You know what I mean? I mean, I'm 
sure you've experienced that. You ever met someone 

that just didn't, it just sssss, but on the other hand, 
have you ever felt an incredible connection with 
someone? I really don't know if you can imagine this 
as I describe it but, you know that sense that just 
feeling totally drawn, totally fascinated, okay. Now 
the pattern itself is not important, but do you see how 
I led into it? Okay. So, you use stories and 
descriptions, because people don't resist those. 
Something about the unconscious that I will teach 
you, this is a very powerful lesson in any kind of 
persuasion. The unconscious does not recognize 
content. The unconscious recognizes form and 
structure. Let me tell you what I mean by that. Listen 
very carefully. Everyone knows the way stories start. 
How do stories usually start? 

Audience: (Responses from audience) 

Ross: Once upon a time or a long time ago in a galaxy 
far, far away, okay. What does that mean when 
someone says a long time, and George Lucas knew 
what he was doing? When they say a long time ago in 
a galaxy far, far away, what part of your mind are they 
turning off? 

Audience: Conscious.  

Ross: They're turning off the critical faculty and what 
part are they telling to turn on? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: That's right. Okay, cause the mind, the 
unconscious recognizes form, not content, so if you 
present something in a certain format, the 
unconscious goes, "Okay, time to turn off the critical 
faculty and absorb everything.” This is very 
profound, this is why we resist advertising, cause we 
become so used to it we know it's designed to 
influence and we shut off, okay? So, descriptions and 
stories are far more powerful than just telling 
someone, "You're going to feel this right now.” Ah, 
shit, I have to feel like such a jackass, you know? So, 
that's the vehicle that we're going to use to do this, 
stories and descriptions. Now, there's no difference 
between a profound and accurate description and a 
powerful set of directions. Descriptions and stories, 
when done properly, will be accepted by the 
unconscious as directions, but the unconscious will 
not resist it. Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Okay? So, this is what we're going to do. Now, 
weasel phrases are the specific little pieces we use to 
start this out. Now, there are all sorts of weasel 
phrases. Those of you who have your Secrets of 
Speed Seduction home study course workbook will 

background image

 

19

find them in here, but I'm going to go through some of 
them right now. Weasel phrases are used to start this 
process running. Now, one of my favorite weasel 
phrases is "If you were to ...” Let's look at this phrase. 
You're going to see this throughout the patterns I 
teach you, you're going to see this occurring again 
and again and again. So, this is the first little piece I 
want you all to get. ”If you were to ... What does it 
mean when I say, "If you were to think about the kind 
of man you really are attracted to" what am I saying 
there? I'm not, if you, if you were to imply, and I'm not 
really asking you to do it, so you don't have to resist 
it. You get it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: That's why I call it a weasel phrase cause like a 
weasel coated with Vaseline, it just slips past any 
resistance. Instead of saying directly, " I command 
you to think of the kind of man you're attracted to" I 
say "If you were to ...” You get it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: So, say it with me. ”If you were to ...”  

Audience: If you were to 

Ross: And then what you do is, you add in the 
process you want them to undergo. So, if you were to 
x or y or z, where x, y and z equals the process you 
want them to undergo. So, let's say we wanted a 
woman to get very aroused and feel horny, how 
would we use this? Someone take a stab at it. Yes Sir.  

Audience: You'd probably say, "If you were to get 
very aroused and horny ...”  

Ross: Right. Exactly. That simple. Now, we're going to 
put some changes in there, we're not going to, you 
now, you understand, but that's how you do it. So, 
here's what you do, here's how this works. You think 
to yourself, "What is the process I want them to 
undergo, " and you write that process out, so "feel 
real horny, become totally fascinated.” "If you were to 
become totally fascinated with a person, would you 
act on it right away, or would you let that urge build 
and build and build?" 

Audience: (Laughter) Ross: Okay? Okay, if you were 
to x or y or z. . Now, am I actually telling you to say x 
or y or z? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: What are x or y or z represent? 

Audience: Processes  

Ross: Someone's going to yell, "Why can't it be a, b, c 

or d?" It can be f u c k for all I care.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: These are just, these are just symbols. Do you 
get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Okay, so if you were to. Now, I'm going to show 
you some of the more popular ones. This one is really 
good at getting away from supplicating. ”It's too bad 
you can't ... , it's too bad you can't x, y, z. It's too bad 
you can't" Now, what is "It's too bad you can't" do? It 
creates a challenge, okay. Remember, here's a guide to 
being incredibly successful with women. This is 
important for you to understand and then write down, 
so look up here. Never supplicate, never bully, 
instead, instead, instead, what you have to do is 
structure opportunities and offer challenges, structure 
opportunities and offer challenges. And here's a good 
way to do it with you language. ”It's too bad you 
can't ...” Okay? Here's another weasel phrase I really 
like. ”If I were to ...” What is "If I were to … imply? 
Yates, you have a set of flash cards I can look at? 
Cause that makes it easy to go through. No, okay. At 
a break. Okay, "If I were to" what does that imply? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Exactly. I'm not really doing it. Yes.  

Audience: I was watching a movie the other night, 
Indecent Proposal, and Robert Redford said 
something along the lines of "Suppose, for example, I 
were to offer you a million dollars" to the woman he 
wanted.  

Ross: Yeah. Exactly. He wanted to sleep with the 
woman, he said, "Suppose I were to ... if I were to 
offer you a million dollars" It's not like he really was. 
One of the things that "if I were to" allows you to do 
is it allows you to test a person's boundaries. ”If I 
were to say to you I want to tongue your beaver till 
you scream for mercy, would you beg me to start or 
would you run away?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay, it's like, I didn't say that. Now, you can 
put it in quotes. You can go "I can't believe how rude 
some men are.” A guy walked up to a woman in a bar 
and said, "If I were to tongue your beaver till you 
scream for mercy" or "If I were to say to you I want to 
tongue your beaver till you scream for mercy, would 
you run away or open your legs and go ‘Get going, 
big boy. ’" 

Audience: Laughter.  

background image

 

20

Ross: So, with any of these, you can put them in 
quotes. You can, I'm serious. You can put it in quotes 
and say, "I can't believe what someone said. I was in a 
bar and this person said" So, you can put it all in 
quotes. Now, what's the purpose of quotes? 
Remember what I said. Ask yourself what is the tool 
designed to do? What is the tool designed to do? 
What's the purpose of quotes? If you put something 
in quotes, what does it let you do? 

Audience: Distances yourself 

Ross: It distances yourself from it, cause you're not 
saying it. What else does it let you do? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: It lets you test boundaries, it lets you test to 
see if someone's ready. So, you're there having coffee 
and everything and you go, "You know, I know some 
crude man at this point in the evening will look at you 
and say 'I'd like to bang you till your head gets a welt 
on top of it right now. ’" You know, forgive me.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Can you believe, can you imagine doing that 
kind of thing all night long?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And if you see her go, if you see her go 
(showing audience),  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That's You say, "You know, I have to go look at 
apartments. Would you like to come with me?" and 
then take her back to yours, okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: But, I'm serious. But if you see her going, 
"Uh-huh" you know, then you know, "Of course, I 
know a woman with class like you requires a much 
gentler approach.” Okay. So, what are quotes. 
Everything I show you, the key to getting it and to 
remembering it is understanding what it's designed to 
do. So, what are quotes designed to do? Say it with 
me.  

Audience: Distance yourself 

Ross: And 

Audience: Test boundaries  

Ross: Who doesn't understand? If you don't, please 
stop and I'll go over it until you get it. Or I'll ridicule 
you till you shut up. No, I wouldn't do that. I really 
wouldn't. I don't do that, I don't teach that way. I 
despise people who teach that way, I think they're 

pissing on a sacred obligation. Yes sir. I'm not kidding 
about that.  

Audience: Talking about testing, do you test with, 
when I began with Yodi, if you were to say, "Would 
you like to come with me" or hear, do you like look for 
an unconscious response or?  

Ross: Okay, let's talk about something. I understand 
what you're asking, but the most important thing 
about what you're asking is something else. You said, 
he talking about phonetic ambiguity, which we'll get 
to. Everything in a sense is a test if you're observing 
for your response. If you're focused on the other 
person, watching for a response, anything you do is a 
test. Do you understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: But, you said something unconscious 
response. That's jargon. One thing I want to steer you 
away from is jargon, okay? I know, there are people 
who are looking at the 89 non-linear variables that 
make up NLP. I'm going, "What the fuck you talking 
about? Take an enema and try again.” Okay? 
Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Unconscious response, you know, just implies 
that you're not getting this. I want a response that's 
so strong you can be Helen Keller and see it. Okay? 
All this stuff about " Watching for unconscious 
responses by looking at it, what if the, you have to 
look at the third quadrant of the upper eye to see if it 
shifts color a little bit.” Well, if you have to look that 
hard, start again and try to generate a more powerful 
response. Okay? Yes. But, watching for responses, 
unconscious or otherwise, is the most important 
thing. We're going to give you an exercise to do later 
in getting that. Okay? So, "If you were to, it's too bad 
you can't, if I were to". Let's go through some more of 
these. Thank you, Yates, by the way, for getting that 
for me. You having fun so far? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Oh, I like this. I like this one. I like this one. 
”You really shouldn't ...” Well, what does "You really 
shouldn't ...” imply? 

Audience: That she's going to 

Ross: It means you're going to. Okay? I don't say to 
you, "You really shouldn't go kick a polar bear in the 
nuts" cause you're not going to do it. Okay? But 
when I say "You really shouldn't feel that growing 
sense of attraction now", I'm implying that it's going 
to happen and she mustn't let it happen, so therefore 
she's going to. This works really well with women I

call polarity responders, women who think the 
opposite of everything you say. So, what you do is 
you tell them what you don't want them to do and, in 
fact, that's what you do want them to do, so they do 
it, cause you told them not to do it. Yes sir.  

Audience: Is it also kind of like the challenge aspect? 

Ross: Yes, again it's a challenge.  

Audience: Too bad you can't  

Ross: Any time you structure an opportunity or offer 
a challenge, you know you're on the right track. 
Remember we talked about trains? You want them on 
that track. Otherwise, you're going to get run over. 
Okay? Here's another good one: "I invite you to 
notice ... I invite you to notice" What does that 
imply? It implies that whatever you mention after that 
is going to happen. ”I invite you to notice what it's 
like, as that sense of rapport between us grows 
deeper and deeper" Okay? Another one is "Find 
yourself " What does it mean to find yourself doing 
something? It means it's going to happen. Okay? "It's 
not important to find yourself growing really attracted 
to me as the evening wears on.” You get it? These are 
just the little pieces of the languaging that you are 
going to see over and over and over again. Now, the 
way to learn these things is to put them on flash 
cards. Put them on flash cards and create your own 
set of commands by going through them and going, 
for each one create, think of the state you want to put 
her in and then go through these and attach it to each 
one of them. I don't want to spend too much time on 
this. Another really good one is "Have you ever ... 
have you ever felt that sense of incredible 
connection.” When you say, "have you ever" what is 
that really doing? "Have you ever" sounds like a 
question, but it's not. It's actually a command to go 
inside your imagination and remember a time when 
you did. If I say to you, what's your name sir? 

Audience: Dave 

Ross: Dave, if I said, "Dave, I want you to feel that I'm 
the most fascinating teacher that you've ever met and 
you have to pay close attention and absorb 
everything I teach" you're going to go, "Well, that's 
nice.” But if I said, "Have you ever met someone who 
is very influential in your life, someone who really 
opened your mind to a new direction and really got 
you thinking in a powerful way.” You know, as you're 
remembering what that was like as I talked to you, as 
you allow that state of mind to really grow and take 
over your consciousness. If I were to say to you, 
"just continue to allow that sense of absolute 
fascination to grow as we talk together, I don't know 

whether it will help you learn tremendously more or 
just a hell of a lot more.” But it's a good thing to know 
that you can take on that mindset, isn't it? Okay. So, 
I'm just, I'm playing with the languaging there. You 
see how it works? 

Audience: Yes. That was a good one - I don't know 
whether ...  

Ross: Yeah, "I don't know whether ...” that's another 
good weasel phrase. ”I don't know whether ...” and 
then you describe what, then what you do with that 
one, you describe two choices, both of which make 
you win. Heads I win, tails you lose. Okay? "I don't 
know whether you'll surrender to me completely by 
the end of the evening or you'll just give yourself to 
me with total, wild abandon.” Okay? Now, you 
wouldn't just say that right up front, although you 
could if you were blatant enough. One of things I 
want to tell you, by the way, is the more humorous 
you are, the more blatant you can be. The more 
playful you are, the more blatant you can be. I'm 
unbelievably blatant with this stuff. Women say, 
"What do you do?" I used to hide it. But, do you 
know what I tell them now? I say, "I teach hypnosis 
and seduction. I teach men the difference between 
getting a woman to submit and getting a woman to 
surrender.” And you know what I see then? I see, 
"Oooh" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Really? Tell me more.” "Well, step this way.” 
And then I go right into it. I'll go, "Let me give you an 
example the kind of thing I teach men to say. Boom" 
It's a rough job. Someone's got to do it  

Audience: Laughter. What did you used to tell 
women before you told them the truth? 

Ross: "Ah, well, you know, teach hypnosis, " which 
is slightly true, "I teach NLP or I design nuclear 
weapons.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I was in a strip club in Las Vegas in a very pissy 
mood. I didn't want to go there, but my friend wanted 
to seduce a stripper who works there. He gave me 
some money, said "Buy some dances and just sit 
there.” I was pissed off so. The stripper comes up to 
me and goes, "Hi, honey, where are you in town 
from?" I said, "Los Alamos.” She said, "Oh, where's 
that?" I said, "Oh, it's up north.” "Well, what do you 
do, honey? You a lawyer?" I go, "No, I build nuclear 
weapons.” And then I looked at her and said, "You 
think you're bad, don't you?" I said, "You think you 
do naughty, naughty bad things for a living. You

think you should be ashamed of some of the things 
you do, don't you? But you don't know what real 
shame is. You don't know what bad is.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Bad is when you make something that could 
kill millions of people, turn them into vapor in a 
heartbeat.” And she's like, "Ahahahahah.” I said,  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I said, I said, "You see that table that's right 
between us?" She went, "Yeah.” I said, "I built one 
the size of that table that would turn the state of 
Nevada into glass and every person in it into wisps of 
vapor.” And she went, "Ahahahahah.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "You want a lap dance?" 

Audience: Laughter. So, did she charge you for the 
lap dance? Laughter  

Ross: Ah, gee, oh golly, my. So, more weasel phrases. 
Notice what, did we do "Notice what it's like"? I think 
we did.  

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So, these are some of the basic building blocks 
of what make up patterns. And the best way to drill in 
this is to, again, go through the flash cards, make up 
your own flash cards, take each weasel phrase, first 
thing you do is you write down some of the states, 
what are some of the states? Let's think about this. 
Let's say, think of some woman who you'd really like 
to sleep with. It can be someone you know, could be a 
movie star, a TV actress, except Nev Campbell, leave 
her alone.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She's mine, mine, mine, all mine.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Or that contract doesn't get signed, signed, 
signed. No, I'm teasing. Okay. So, imagine some 
woman you'd really like to be with. You're going to get 
your shot. You're going to get an hour alone with her 
to talk to her. What are some of the states of mind 
you want her to experience? 

Audience: Fascination, connection 

Ross: Fascination, connection. What else?  

Audience: Oral fixation 

Ross: Oral fixation? That's ...  

Audience: Incredible lust 

Ross: Incredible lust. Name some more.  

Audience: Intrigue 

Ross: Intrigue 

Audience: Curiosity 

Ross: By the way, what's the difference between 
someone's who's interesting and someone's who's 
intriguing? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: That's a very good principle for constructing 
patterns. We'll talk about that later, the contrast 
principle. What's the difference between one thing 
and another? Okay.  

Audience: An ongoing creativity of what could we do 
together.  

Ross: Ooh, so you want that mindset of her thinking, 
"Ooo, what could I do with this guy?" Very good.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Okay. Now, some of you said oral fixation, lust. 
The problem is, those are not the right things to aim at 
right away, unless you're with a stripper. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm serious. Strippers you can aim at that right 
away, but for most sane, healthy, balanced women, 
for both of those women, the thing is this,  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: You're half of it, you're half of it, keep ... I'm 
teasing. For most women, that's not the thing to aim at 
first, and I'll tell you why. Cause it's just too 
overwhelming. Here's the thing about speed 
seduction you want to get. Speed seduction requires 
you do things in the proper sequence or order. How 
many people here have ever baked a cake or watched 
a cake or eaten a cake that's been baked? 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: You want to ... For those of you heard trainers, 
universal experiences, you know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And just keep testing till you get one. How do 
you know? "Well, I didn't calibrate their unconscious 
...” You know, there's so much mythology and bullshit 
in NLP, it's just remarkable. Oh, Lord help me to do 
this job. Anyway. I'm serious, I pray before I teach 
these classes, I do. I really do. It's a gargantuan task.

How many people here have had NLP training, by the 
way? We will do our best to help you get past that 
handicap. I'm serious. Okay, so, where was I? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Okay. You want to do things in the right 
sequence. For most women, you want to start out by 
creating a state of incredible comfort and connection 
and fascination. Incredible comfort, fascination and 
connection are the states you want to start with. 
Why? Because that lays, haha, yeah, a sexual 
metaphor you're using, Ross, it lays the foundation, 
the groundwork for everything else you want to 
insert, I mean everything else you want to do. Okay? 
Now, how many here are self-styled nice guys? How 
many people have ever been told by a woman, 
"You're a nice guy"? When she's saying you're a nice 
guy, what does that really mean? 

Audience: Responses and laughter 

Ross: Please don't say fuck in here, say bang, bump 
uglies, screw, make, do the groan up.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: That's good.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Well, what it really means, that's partially what 
it means, but also what it means is, look, translated 
from the female languaging, what it means is, "look, 
the only thing I feel around you is casual comfort and 
enjoyment and that's all I reel around you.” That's 
what she's really, the report that she's giving you with 
her feelings is that. It's very important to take your 
attention off what you want, off your own desire and 
pay attention to how she's responding with her 
imagination and her feelings, her imagination and her 
emotions. Ask yourself the question, don't ask, "How 
can I get into her pants" and don't think, "Oh my God, 
my pink torpedo is ready to sail home.” 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Instead, pay attention to the right thing. 
Remember the guy who was looking at the 
instruments instead of at the road and he crashed in 
the story I told? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Okay. Forget about the fact that that person 
has something you really want and instead, pay 
attention to the structures in their mind that you can 
use to lead them where you want them to go and that 
implies that you're paying attention to them. Watch 
how they're responding with their emotions and their 

imagination. Okay? And the thing is this. When a 
woman says to you, "I think you're a nice guy" what 
she's saying is "I can't experience anything around 
you except casual comfort and enjoyment.” Is that 
correct Brother Amy, essentially? She's nodding her 
pretty head yes. Okay? Now, understand something. 
This is very profound. If you get this, it's a really big 
piece. I'm talking about a huge piece that will do you a 
world of good.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I want to erect a new structure for you to pay 
attention to, okay? Cause, I really want you guys to 
move in a new direction and the thing about new 
directions, magnificent new directions, is  this. You've 
really got to grab hold of them, take them in as far and 
as deep as they'll go, join with them, make them part 
of who you are. You understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: All right, good.  

Audience: Response and laughter from audience.  

Ross: Okay. The thing is this, is if the only ... Let's say 
you're a really great looking guy. Let's say you 
happen to have the exact fact and body she likes, 
okay? What response will she have when you walk 
into the room? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: She'll feel some physical sensations in her 
body. You get one of the four doorways. Which of 
the four door-ways do you get by virtue of the fact 
that you're a really good-looking guy? Do you get 
deep emotional connections? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Do you get, right, you get body sensations. 
She feels that little buzz, you know, and maybe the 
little man in the boat starts to rock a little bit.  

Audience. laughter 

Ross: For those of you who don't know what I mean, 
we have a remedial class to teach ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Okay? So. Okay, so, the thing is this, is, when 
she tells you you're a nice guy what she's really 
saying is she's giving you a report on her state of 
mind when she's around you. Do you get it? So, what 
you want to learn to do is create deeper states than 
that. You want to learn to create states of feeling 
totally comfortable like she's known you forever, like 
she's meant to know you, and feeling totally

fascinated, feeling completely connected. Why? 
What does that open her up to fe el next? 

Audience: Deeper emotions 

Ross: Deeper emotions and ...  

Audience: Body sensations 

Ross: Body sensations and it gets her visualizing, 
okay? Here's the sad thing. Men have sexually 
repressed women. Men have taught women through 
enculturation that's  it's not right or okay for women to 
have sexual feelings simply cause they're sexual 
creatures. And now we're paying the price. The price 
we're paying is we have to create all those things first 
for them to do the ugly with us. Okay? Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: That’s our fault. When you oppress it comes 
back to haunt you. Now we have to fix the problem by 
giving them what they think they need first. But that 
can be done without flowers, gifts, candy, dates. It 
can be done through your language. Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Okay, so. That's what we're going to aim at. So, 
the first kind of state you want to aim at, unless you're 
dealing with a stripper, now when you're dealing with 
a stripper, they don't, in their mindset, in their model 
of the world, there is no such thing as an emotional 
connection. To them, connections have to do with 
excitement and the next thrill ride. That's what you 
have to offer them. If you talk to stripper about 
incredible connections she'll look at you like you're 
speaking Greek. She won't get it. But for, outside of 
that, generally speaking, you want to create states of 
fascination and connection. Yes.  

Audience: It seems that when somebody tells you 
you're a nice guy, they're saying also you're not 
threatening, and t o what extent do you think that 
having some element of danger or mystery is 
important to also opening up ...  

Ross: It is important. It is important. But look, what if, 
what if you could have danger and mystery without 
being an idiot? What if you could have danger and 
mystery without being a bully? That's what I want to 
teach you how to do. Cause here's the thing. If you 
can make a woman on the one hand feel totally safe, 
totally comfortable, and on the other hand feel totally, 
wildly passionate, you're going to get quite a ride. 
Okay? And this is part of the difference between 
submission and surrender. Submission implies she's 
been broken, she's been beaten, someone's broken 
her will, someone's got power over her, she's been 

defeated. But surrender, surrender is when she sighs 
that sigh of relief because she's finally come home. 
She's come home to someone who's mature enough to 
see the woman that she is, experienced enough to see 
the woman who's emerging and strong enough to 
make her feel totally protected as he takes his 
pleasure with her and leads her in a completely new 
direction. Do you understand? 

Audience: Yes Ross: So that's what I want to show 
you - how to be that kind of man. Cause when you're 
that kind of man, ... Yes? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Yeah, he was going "Mm hmm"  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Now, when you meet that kind of man and you 
know, ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Have you ever wanted something really badly 
and you just couldn't get it and suddenly it gets 
closer and closer and closer 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm not going to play with her because she's my 
guest. I promised I wouldn't.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's hard to cross your fingers with these great 
big rings. Okay? Does this make sense?

Tape 2 – Side 1 

 

Yates: This is Side 3 of the Ross Jeffries Speed 
Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: This is Brother John. Give him a big hand.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: What I'll be doing is interrupting from time to 
time to show you what he used, so this isn't just an 
entertaining story. Go ahead Brother John.  

Brother John: Well, I kinda tried to distance myself 
from looking like I'm doing patterns. I do do patterns, 
but they usually don't show because they're not a full 
pattern. Not like this pattern or that pattern. Just 
throwing little elements here and there, you'll be 
surprised at the results you'll get.  

Ross: Well, you had a recent success that you 
shared, right, on the list. Is that correct? Was that 
you? 

Brother John: Oh, the Italian girl.  

Ross: Yeah, talk about her.  

Brother John: Well, we were walking down the streets 
of Florence and, we saw this guy and a girl. They 
were trying to pick people up to go to this bar that 
was sort of an American sports bar. So, ah, I was 
there with three friends, or two friends, there was 
three of us, and we decided to go. She was gorgeous, 
dark hair, beautiful eyes, um. So we decided that's 
where we're going to go. So we went in and there's 
nobody else in this place, just her and the owner. And 
my friends were just hitting on her left and right, 
telling her she's beautiful, telling her everything they 
thought she wanted to hear, and that wasn't it. She 
wanted more. She wanted to know that there was 
something else because she thought she looked like 
every other Italian girl. And she kind of did -long, 
long dark hair. So, uh, did the finger-point thing. That 
is great, that is surprising and she just melted. Her 
eyes rolled up into her head and ... my friends were 
looking at ...  

Ross: That's a yes signal, by the way. That's a good 
one.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: The finger-point thing, by the way, is when 
you, is when you, for those of you at home, you have 
to, you have to imagine this at home, Buy the 

videotapes - you'll see it on there. It's when you talk 
about how you can feel that wonderful connection 
right (pause) there. And the finger goes right to her 
solar plexus and what you have to do is, you have to 
look at your finger. They will follow where you're 
looking. So you don't go right there, you look at your 
finger, you go right (pause) there. And this is where 
they feel the connection. Yeah. So she melted.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Yeah, you can tell ... And here's the thing. This 
is also what I call they think they're, you're about to 
touch their breasts, so imagine he's a chick, with, 
these are boobs, so you go right (pause) then they're 
going, you'll see their chest start to heave like, "Is he 
going to touch my tits?" And then you go, go ahhh, 
the relief.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Go ahead. Yes, Chris.  

Chris: What do you say right before the finger point? 

Ross: You know, my sense, my sense about you is 
when you feel a connection with someone, you feel it 
right (pause), they go, "Oh my god, he's going to 
touch my tits.” Yeah, oh, it's what I call the intrusion 
principle. You intrude just a little bit. Go ahead. So 
what happened? 

Brother John: Just doing this brings on the 

Ross: So what happened to her? So what happened 
with her? 

Brother John: Urn, well, you know, we talked awhile, 
uh, she didn't have a boyfriend, 22, uh, fascinated by 
blond guys. She said that that's, that was common 
there because there's not so many blondes. So that 
made it kind of fun. It was like being on the other end 
of the stick.  

Ross: Come one, let's get to the details, talking about 
the end of the stick.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother John: Hey, I was only in Florence two days. I 
got a great kiss out of it, got her, got her address and 
phone number, we've been talking, she's been 
correcting my Italian.  

Ross: Okay, good. Okay. Are there any more juicy 
stories? Didn't you have more juicy stories than that? 

Brother John: That was my favorite cause she was 
absolutely gorgeous.  

Ross: Ah, cool, okay. You don't want to tell the other 

background image

 

26

stories? 

Brother John: No, not on tape.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Not on tape, okay, so he's  going to be 
conservative. Brother Danny, you come up. Okay. 
Brother Dan. How old are you Brother Dan? 

Brother Dan: 41 

Ross: And how old is your girlfriend? 

Brother Dan: 20 

Ross: But she just turned 20?  

Audience: Yeah 

Brother Dan: She just turned 20.  

Ross: So, you used, you rogered her when she was? 

Brother Dan: 19 

Ross: And you were how old? 

Brother Dan: 40 

Ross: But that's impossible - 40 year old men have to 
spend six weeks of hanging out till they get a positive 
signal that she wants to talk to you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Never mind. Go ahead, tell the story.  

Brother Dan: I saw these two really beautiful women 
at this psychic fair and they were sisters. One was 
very attractive and the other one was not so 
attractive. So, I'm watching them and as they're 
leaving, they're complaining and they're at the desk 
trying to get their money back. And they're very 
upset about it. So, I kind of just walked close to them 
as they were leaving the psychic fair. And I just 
walked up and I say, "Well, what am I going to say to 
them that, you know, will catch their interest?" So, I 
said, "So you're just at the psychic fair?" and I said, 
"Did you just have a bad experience?" cause, and 
they're going, "Well, yeah, we did.” So I said, "Well, 
what am I going to do here?" So I went up to them 
and I said, "Well, you very, very lucky because I have 
a magical cure for that.” And I was thinking of this, so 
we're walking down the street, side by side,  

Ross: Stop. So, what's his formula? His first formula 
is, I want you, this is why I interrupt. I interrupt to 
give you what he's doing. First of all, he observes 
what's going on. Then he says, he goes into his 
intuition and then you said, what was the question 
you asked yourself?  

Brother Dan: Did you just have a bad experience? 

Ross: So, what was the question you asked yourself, 
though? 

Brother Dan: What can I notice about them? 

Ross: Yeah. What can I notice that I can use? Yeah. 
What can I notice that I can. This isn't rocket science, 
it's pretty simple. Now, notice what he didn't do. He 
didn't look and go, "Oh my god, look at that fucking 
ass. I can just imagine when I'm sticking my tongue so 
deep in there that I'm massaging her inner, you know, 
her small intestine, um urn um.” He didn't pay 
attention to his feelings of lust and the other side of 
the cover he didn't go into "Oh my god, look at them. 
They're only 19 years old and I'm a 40-year-old fart. I'll 
never get my ...” He just, instead, he focused outside, 
he put his attention out here. He said, "What can I 
notice that I can use?" Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So the next thing I did was I just, I sort 
of reached into my side like this and I just said, "I've 
got this light saber thing.” So I just went, you know 
like the Jedi thing, and I went, buzzzz, and I threw her 
my hand and I just, we were walking down the street 
with these people talking. But I was bold and I 
believed I could get away with it. I guess that was 
something, my state was good. I had like a really 
powerful state. But I took that thing and swung it 
over their heads, right, and I said, "Now don't you feel 
better?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And what did they say? 

Brother Dan: Oh, they said, "Yeah, I feel better.” 
Then, especially the really pretty 19 year old one that, 
you know, had had the experience and she was 
smiling and laughing.  

Ross: That's called the light saber pickup. Now, you're 
going to go, "Excuse me, mroing.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There's something called context. Put it in the 
right context. He noticed they were having bad 
thoughts and images in their minds, so he went zoom. 
Cut them right off. Now, notice when he said he had a 
bold attitude. The bolder and more outrageous you 
are, the better you can do with this. People want to be 
led. People are also hypnosis machines, if you know 
how to lead them properly. Go ahead. And you were 
playful, too.  

Brother Dan: Yeah, I was very playful. I ...  

Ross: Were you lustful?  

background image

 

27

Brother Dan: I, she was, when I saw her standing with 
her back to me at the counter, her, she had the, a 
pouty, kind of round butt thing.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Dan: I was a little bit lustful. But, I managed to 
put that in its place so that I could enjoy it later.  

Ross: Did you hear what he said? That's profound. 
Say it again. You managed to what? 

Brother Dan: I managed to put that lust in its place ...  

Ross: So you could what? 

Brother Dan: Enjoy it later.  

Ross: Right. If you pay attention to your own desire 
you will erect a barrier, I'm serious, between you and 
her. You see, if you view people as a task that you 
must complete, you'll break all rapport and they'll 
resent you. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So, we just continued walking down the 
street and I had their attention and I was dropping in 
weasel phrases and some trance words and I had their 
attention for probably three or four blocks, and, but 
then we realized that we were going nowhere. Right? 
But they were entranced 

Ross: What do you mean you realized you were going 
nowhere? You were walking nowhere? 

Brother Dan: We were just walking 

Ross: Ah 

Brother Dan: and 

Ross: Right 

Brother Dan: and directing, so I said, "Why don't we“ 

Ross: Wait a minute. You had two women there and 
you were doing with both of them? "I thought that's 
an insoluble problem. What if there are two girls there. 
One of them is going to try and get in the way, and ... 
I can't do this in front two women.” Yeah. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So I said, "Let's go, why don't we go for 
coffee?" So we walked another couple of blocks and 
went for coffee. And, at that point, I was running 
patterns on them, I was doing the blow job, I was 
doing anchoring, I was doing all these things, and 

Ross: Which we'll show you all.  

Brother Dan: Particularly with the, with the younger 
one, you know, I was doing anchoring till like, a really 
great feeling,  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Dan: You know, where you loop it around, 
that sort of thing, and getting amazing responses from 
them, like they were trancing right out where they 
were 

Ross: How could you tell they were trancing? 

Brother Dan: They weren't saying anything, they had 
that, their eyes were fixed on me, and they weren't 
blinking very much. They were just there.  

Ross: Now. Did you have to look real closely to see 
it? Did you have to put yourself in a super-attenuated 
state of super observation and look at the little twitch 
in the lower lip? 

Brother Dan: No.  

Ross: No.  

Brother Dan: When somebody's, when somebody's 
there,  

Ross: Major Mark.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark, 
Mark, Mark, Mark.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Now the gang's all here. Hi, buddy.  

Mark: Yeah, how you doing? 

Ross: He cut short his honeymoon to be here. How 
do you like that? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So, I mean, you realize it very, very 
quickly because people don't usually like, you know, 
Amy, when we were talking at lunch last year? I mean, 
you know when somebody's going there. Their eyes 
defocus and they, when it's profound, I mean, you see 
it instantly and they just stop talking. They, and they 
really pay attention. So, then 

Ross: Then what did you do? 

Brother Dan: Ah,  

Ross: So, what is he doing? He's constantly focusing 
outside, watching them. External focus. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: That little coffee thing ended up taking 
about 2 hours. Ross: Two hours, wow.  

Brother Dan: And they were just, they were, they 
were gone and I said, "Well, you know, it was time for 
us to go home now, blah, blah, blah.” So, I drive them

both home and I said, "You know, " 

Ross: How old was the older one, by the way? 

Brother Dan: 25.  

Ross: Ahhhhh.  

Audience: Laughter and response fro m audience 

Brother Dan: So I said, "You know, " I did a negation 
thing, I said, "It's really too bad that we won't have 
another opportunity ...”  

Ross: It's too bad that we don't, we won't have 
another opportunity to connect. So what did he do? 
Did he say, "I'd really like to see you girls again"? He 
offered a challenge. What did I say to you? Structure 
opportunities or offer challenges. So he said, the exact 
language was, "It's too bad 

Brother Dan: It's too bad we won't have another 
opportunity like this to get together or something like 
that.  

Ross: Right. It's too bad we won't have another 
opportunity to get together like this again. Now what 
in the mind of any woman is that going to cause her 
to do? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Oh yes we will.  

Brother Dan: They said, "We want your number. We 
want to talk to you again.” 

Ross: Okay.  

Brother Dan: So, about two weeks lapses.  

Ross: Now, he could've blown it. He could have said, 
"Well, you know, you girls, you girls are so great, 
now I'd really like to talk to you again, and" 

Brother Dan: About two weeks lapses and I get this 
phone call.  

Ross: So, you didn't hear from them for two weeks? 

Brother Dan: Well, we were supposed to get together 
a week later. They got, one of them got the flu and 
then,  

Ross: Yeah, that happens. By the way, that kind of 
thing does happen.  

Brother Dan: So, about two weeks later they phoned 
me up, on like a Wednesday and they say, "There's 
this birthday party and we'd like you to come to it, 
you know. A friend of ours is having a birthday, so 
come to this, it was like ...”  

Ross: Where you can meet other 18 and 19 and 20 

year olds? 

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Dan: It was like a cigar, it was like a martini 
cigar 

Ross: No hard core _____ . Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So, I said, "Sure, why not.” So, I'm ...  

Ross: I must admire 

Brother Dan: So, I go there to pick them up and, 
surprise, surprise. One of them's not there. Guess 
which one? 

Ross: The 25 year old wasn't there.  

Brother Dan: That's right. And, the other one ...  

Ross: Her parakeet had an existential crisis, see? 

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Dan: Well, actually, she had gone ahead and 
her sister was waiting for her, but she was really 
excited and enthusiastic. So, we get, we get to this 
bar, we park and we're walking along the street, and, 
for some reason, I just put my arm out like this and I 
said, "You know, I don't know, people are going to 
start thinking that there's more going on here, you 
know, if they see us together like this.” _____ goes 
good.  

Ross: Yeah, _____ which is good, a very good boy.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Dan: And we're just ...  

Ross: Very good.  

Brother Dan: And she's smiling and laughing, you 
know, and, she's like, cause she's getting into it. We 
walk in, we sit down, and this was the clincher. What I 
did, was I, I think it was kind of like part of the bj 
pattern.  

Ross: Yeah. Blow Job pattern. Thank you.  

Brother Dan: And, you know, I said something about 
chocolate, and I said, "You know what I especially 
like? Is when I take that chocolate ...  

Ross: Stop. He's describing his own experience. What 
did I say? Stories and descriptions. By describing his 
own experience, was does it allow her to do? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: She can imagine for herself, she doesn't have to 
resist it, it's not about her. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: So, I said, "You know what I really love 

background image

 

29

to do? Is I like to take some of that chocolate that isn't 
just too sweet and put it in my mouth and then I like 
to take a sip of really wonderful red wine and mix 
those flavors together inside my mouth.” And then I 
go, "You know, and I'm sure and you can't imagine.” 
And she says, "I love to do that, too.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: But I'm telling you, the way I described 
it, and I'm not going into all the details, the pattern 
and stuff 

Ross: Right.  

Brother Dan: But, I mean, at this point she's going, 
"Don't do this to me, not here. Okay?" 

Ross: Don't do this to me? Not here.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: What is she trying to tell me? Do this to 
me, but not here.  

Ross: What is she saying? Take me where we can be 
alone. So what happened then? By the way, that's a 
green light. Go ahead.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: So anyway, we, we went out dancing to 
a club and she'd go, I mean at this point we did, I did 
some safety things with her and she goes ...  

Ross: Whoa. Would you explain your thinking behind 
that? Why did you do safety things with her?  

Brother Dan: Well, safety's really important, I mean, 
there's, you know, women are, can be quite fearful 
about their safety and the type of person that, 
especially if they've just met them and talked with 
them for 2 hours. That's not a long time. You know, 
so, you want to make them feel comfortable so that 
they can open up to more exciting adventures. And, 
so we went to this club and it was interesting because 
it was like the rest of the people in the club 
disappeared and I said, ...  

Ross: For whom? Who were the rest of the people? 

Brother Dan: For both of us, because I went, I _____ , 
I go right there with them all the time.  

Ross: Listen to what he just said. Say it again.  

Brother Dan: I go right there with them every time.  

Ross: One of the keys to leading someone into a state 
to experience some of that state for yourself. Now, I 
didn't say experience it fully cause then you might 
lose some control, but experience some it for yourself, 

and you go first.  

Brother Dan: And I remember really clearly what I 
said. I said, "Isn't it interesting ...”  

Ross: Isn't it interesting.  

Brother Dan: "how you can feel totally safe here in 
this ...” And this is a place where they metal 
detectors, okay. It was very alternative place, right? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: And it ...  

Ross: I should, we should get some of those.  

Brother Dan: Just when you're, and when you're 
together with someone, it feels like everybody else is 
just out there and you're almost here on your own 
with me. And, it really was like you could feel really 
comfortable, like, I don't know if you've ever been into 
a bar where there's lots of people drinking, and,  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Dan: And loud and things like that. And it 
really just didn't matter. The rest of it was outside of 
our experience at that point in time.  

Ross: What did he do? He disappeared the world and 
made it just her and him together in that special place 
where they can explore anything that they can make ...  

Brother Dan: And feel safe.  

Ross: And feel safe doing it. He disappeared the 
world for her. You ever heard of those songs, listen to 
love songs. When you're, you disappear the world for 
me, and all that other bullshit.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: So, you know, we went there, danced a 
little bit. She was getting very, very provocative with 
her dancing.  

Ross: Oh? What does that mean? 

Brother Dan: I don't know. It was another green light? 

Ross: How was she being provocative? 

Brother Dan: Urn, you know, she was like, arms up in 
the air, lots of hip action ...  

Ross: Yeah, yeah. Okay.  

Brother Dan: You know, it being very 

Ross: Someone give me a towel. Go ahead.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: So we go to a, after that all ends, we go 

background image

 

30

to a friend's place for pizza and, you know, that's 
when I spent, you remember you told me you'd slap 
my hands for that? I spent like $3 and $5 for the pizza 
or something.  

Ross: How much did you spend? 

Brother Dan: It was, I think the whole evening was 
about $5 or $6 cause we bought drinks. I know, I 
know.  

Ross: You spent $5 to have beautiful 19 year old 
goddess fall in love with you and ...  

Brother Dan: They bought me drinks and I bought 
them drinks and then, I threw in some, like, pizza or 
whatever it was. It was under $ 10. And so, you know, 
we get to the evening and I think I did a few more 
patterns with her. She sat down with me. The, the next 
thing that happened, she says, "It's time to go.” 
Right.  

Ross: It's time to go.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: And we were the first ones to leave ...  

Ross: She's a 19 year old girl getting aggressive with a 
40-year-old man.  

Brother Dan: And so, and we go, and I said, "You 
know, " I did something like, you know, I asked her, 
you know, where would she feel comfortable about 
going with me, right? And she says, "Well, let's go 
back to your place.” We go back to my place and ...  

Ross: Now, more green lights. Not "Oh, you know, I 
have to get up early for work tomorrow.” All those 
mechanisms are now working in his favor.  

Brother Dan: Yeah. And I did lots of, some things on 
the way home to sort of build it just gradually. We get 
home. I did not ask for anything. And, remember, you 
said, Ross says that ...  

Ross: Say it again.  

Brother Dan: I did not ask for anything.  

Ross: When you ask, you're supplicating. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: Ross says if you have to ask, you're 
doing it wrong.  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Dan: Right? So, you know, we're there and, I 
think I poured some wine, and ...  

Ross: Were you at any point thinking to yourself, 
"Jesus Christ, this really works!" 

Brother Dan: This really works.  

Ross: She's like ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Ross wasn't lying.  

Brother Dan: We poured some wine and I did some 

Ross: By the way, hang on just a second.  

Brother Dan: And then I used some of the gates, you 
know. ”We really shouldn't be moving too fast, da da 
da da.” So that I really distanced it from myself. The 
next thing I know,  

Ross: Slow down. Negation is, you say, you really 
shouldn't be doing this, it's not important for you to 
feel this, we can't do this. What are you doing? 

You're taking all the resistance she would voice and 
you're voicing it for her, so she doesn't have to, and 
you can both push it out-of the way. Go ahead.  

Brother Dan: At that point, she puts her hand in my 
hand, and leads me upstairs, and ...  

Ross: She leads you upstairs in your house? 

Brother Dan: Yes.  

Ross: How did she even know where the bedroom.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She's done this b efore.  

Audience: laughter.  

Brother Dan: To be honest with you, she was not 
very experienced. This was only her second time.  

Ross: Okay. But she took you upstairs.  

Audience: _____ sixth sense.  

Ross: She took you upstairs and what happened 
then? (Heavy breathing) 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: And, we made, you know, we  

Ross: Was she aggressive when she took you 
upstairs? Did she jump on you? 

Brother Dan: She was, no, she was very, she, I mean, 
she let me lead after that.  

Ross: Okay. Those are green lights, you know. So.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: And, you want to know what? I've got 
to tell you, I mean, this person is still involved in my 
life. And you know what? We have, she can, she just

loves the experiences I give her. She just goes, her, all 
of her friends go, I mean, they accept me completely 
as being a very good thing in her life cause I do a lot 
of wonderful things, I give her, I do patterns with her 
to improve her school, to get her focused on right 
things,  

Ross: Yeah, you don't do that till after they're sleeping 
with you.  

Brother Dan: Yeah.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan; So I give her lots of good things 

Ross: Trust me. I'm not trying to be fecitious or 
sarcastic or ...  

Brother Dan: Cause then you're her therapist ...  

Ross: But then you're her therapist, and then, then 
you don't get it.  

Brother Dan: So I mean, just, just to add onto that, so 
I do a lot of really positive things with her. And what 
her girlfriends say is, and this is where, we're out at 
another birthday party this last week, they go, "They 
want what she has.” 

Ross: Ohhhhh.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: I want what you and ...  

Audience: Do you offer it? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: I'm not going to use my name again, but 
they, and I'm going, now, that's a, that's, that's really 

Ross: Now 

Brother Dan: that's a lot of ambiguity in there.  

Ross: Now, has, is he hurting her, has he done 
something terrible to her, has he tricked her or robbed 
her of something? 

Audience: No 

Ross: No, he's done something wonderful that no 
snot-nosed 19 year old punk her age could ever give 
her. Yeah? 

Audience: Unless they've been trained by Ross.  

Ross: That's right. Thank you.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: What did it cost him? Five bucks.  

Audience: He's communicated and he's connected 

with her more than anybody else ever has.  

Ross: Say it again.  

Audience: He communicated and connected,  

Ross: Not just that.  

Audience: more than anybody else 

Ross: He's communicated in ways that she 
understands. Now to an outside observer who is 
watching the first night he was talking to those girls, 
they would think he was a fucking lunatic. They 
wouldn't get it, okay? 

Brother Dan: I had eyes closed, I bad them pointing to 
pictures, I had them moving pictures around, I had 
them zip anchor,  

Ross: Now the fact, we'll, we'll 

Brother Dan: People would've thought I was very 
strange.   

Ross: Now, now, now the fact that they were at a 
psychic fair give you a clue that they're open to that 
kind of stuff. If you were going to like the skeptical 
inquirers meeting, you know,  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You might have, so you picked a good hunting 
ground whether you knew it or not, but the fact is, he 
went at it with the right attitude, which is not "Oh, I've 
got to make it work, but _____ Right? 

Brother Dan: Exactly.  

Ross: I think you should give him a huge hand.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Microphone over there please. Could we get a 
mike ... You can use my mike to answer, so, just talk 
into my tit.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Yes.  

Audience: Someone asked, this may be jumping 
forward a little bit, but at any point does she know 
that if you let on that you're doing any of these 
patterns or have you informed her at all that you're 
involved in this in any way? 

Brother Dan: She knows that I do lots of mind things. 
I tell her that very, very clearly. I've done things with 
her mom, we’re just talking about almost therapeutic 
things for her mom, and she, when she tells me ...  

Audience: laughter 

background image

 

32

Brother Dan: I gave her mom hope at a Christmas 
party. I don't know how, I know exactly how I did that 
cause I planned to do that, that was what I wanted to 
...  

Ross: You gave her mom hope? What did hope say 
about it? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: Her mom ... Yeah, I know ... Her mom ...  

Ross: _____  

Brother Dan: Her mom was in a bad state, her mom 
was in a bad state, and I did some change things with 
her. But what she does is she goes, do you know, 
you're amazing? And she goes you touch people 
wherever you go and the reason she says ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: You want to know what I tell her? 
Seriously, seriously. What I did, I say, and I, and I 
touched them deeply inside.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Dan: You know, I go on and on 

Ross: He's not being, wait, you're not being ...  

Brother Dan: But I do that, I really do that.  

Ross: He's not being cynical, he means it, he means it.  

Brother Dan: I don't know when, when we were at that 
place, you know, that woman said, "You know, 
remember we were by that shop in Hawaii?" and I 
said, I walked up to her and I do use a lot of intuition, 
I mean that's something you're going to find as you 
start to pay attention, intuition is just awareness of 
things that are there that you just haven't paid 
attention to yet, but you will. I said, "It looks like 
you've got a back injury, right, or you have some ...” 
Remember she said that? She goes, "How did you 
know?" I go, well she's like, I could see her neck was 
stiff and things like that. She thought I was psychic, 
blah, blah, blah, and, you know, what do we do with 
her? We connected with her and we got her past her 
fear. Her fear was she had been to a chiropractor who 
had screwed her neck up. And it had been screwed up 
for a year and I said, what I did was, we did some 
change work, _____ during the week ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Dan: We moved some picture around where 
she could have the courage to go out and find a 
proper chiropractor. Okay? 

Ross: Okay, you don't want to ...  

Brother Dan: and get it taken care of.  

Ross. - I don't want you to get into that. I want you to 
stay out of the therapeutic mindset. This is. you 
know' ...  

Brother Dan: Okay. But I do touch people wherever I 
go and I like playing, with this stuff, and the more I 
play with it. the better I get at it.  

Ross: He like playing with it. I want, one of the things 
we're going to be doing today is installing that playful 
attitude into you, getting you past the "Oh my god, 
while I ---------------" Get you past all that.  

Brother Dan: Ross, can I say one more thing? 

Ross: That I'm great, I'm wonderful? Yeah, you may 
say that 

Brother Dan: The one thing that, you know, that Ross 
talks about in terms of dating and things like that ...  

Ross: _____  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Dan: It is about choice. I was 39 years old. I 
had gone out and, I had gone out and through my life 
I said, "If I get better, if I make more money, if I drive 
the right car, if I get the right degree, women will like 
me.” And I fall, I fell into the trap of more better. If I 
get more better, I'm going to finally get the success 
with women I rightly deserve and so do you all. Do 
you want to know what? I was really, I realized that 
that game wasn't working and I came to Speed 
Seduction by, by the greatest of good fortune. I'm 
going to tell you that right now cause I've used it in 
business, used it in my personal life,  

Ross: It doesn't work for anything but getting laid.  

Brother Dan: And they shouldn't think that over and 
over again as they try to experiment with it every day 
for the rest of their lives.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Dan: The thing that I want to tell you today - I 
have choice. I am not, I mean, how many people have 
been in a relationship where they say, "I don't know if 
I should get out of this because I don't know if I'll find 
anything better?" Well, what if you had the choice, 
what if you had the choice to go for more every time, 
independent of how good things were today? You 
had the choice. That is like one of the greatest gifts 
that I, that I've, I've got at this point in my life. It 
would have been great that if I had, if I had it 20 years 
ago, but I look at my life as being a whole new 
adventure from today forward.  

background image

 

33

Ross: A whole new adventure. Now, here's the thing 
is, is, no understand. He has choice about being a 
bully without being abusive, without exploiting 
anyone, he has choice through doing wonderful 
things for people, for making, for leading them into 
feeling things they could never feel before. So, no one 
loses when you do this. Everyone wins. That's the 
really cool thing.  

Audience: The first choice that he made was to 
succeed because what mindset you described about 
the more better, You were talking about, by definition 
you can not win, because the condition for winning is 
you must get more, which means you're not there yet. 
Is that true? 

Brother Dan: It's the trap of more better.  

Ross: Who benefits by that trap? The people who are 
selling you the more better things. So they want to 
keep you in that mindset. I'm here to break you out of 
it. So I'm fighting against however many years you've 
been our culture exposed to this, but in three days, I'm 
going to do it.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: Thank you.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: Now, since he talked about attitude, I want to 
talk a little bit about the proper attitude and the right 
attitude. Major Mark, would you come up just for a 
minute? I just, this is my pal.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: He actually got to see me a tux. It was 
wonderful, wasn't it? 

Major Mark: We have photos.  

Ross: You have photos. Talk a little bit about the 
attitudes. We're going to do a module here on 
attitudes. Talk about the attitude of the romantic hero 
from, from romance novels, would you?  

Major Mark: Okay, okay. Hi Amy.  

Ross: She's cool.  

Major Mark: Well, so are the rest of you.  

Ross: She's really cool, okay? 

Major Mark: How many here have heard, read, seen 
me before so I know where to start? Okay, and the 
rest of you should.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Major Mark: I did a research project because I study 

people for a living, I play with people for a living. And 
one research project I did was I was trying to figure 
out why the hell do so many romance novels sell. I 
mean, I don't know if you know this, but over half of 
all books sold in North America today are romance 
novels. Now think about that. That's 51% as of last 
year. That means 49% of all books sold encompass, 
are literature, politics, religion, all the forms of human 
endeavor, 51% of all books sold are women's romantic 
fantasies. Now, does this tell you something? Could 
there be an unfulfilled yearning out there somewhere? 

Audience: Laughter.  

Major Mark: So, I said, I thought I'll find out all about 
this, so I went out and I bought one, took it home, I 
tried to read it. I got about five pages into it, I didn't 
know what the fuck they were talking about.  

Ross: Laugh Major Mark: Okay? It was like, it's in 
English but it's a different language. Okay. So I 
started trying to break the whole thing down because 
that's what I do. I look for the building blocks of 
human behavior. And what I found is that there's a 
code to these things they're written in, and in fact, 
there's a really, really good guide to this code. There's 
a book out there called DANGEROUS MEN, 
ADVENTUROUS WOMEN. Okay. It's a compilation 
of essays published by University of Pennsylvania 
and it's all about romance novels, written by the 
women who write romance novels. And one of the 
essays in there was absolute gold. Okay? It dealt with 
what are characteristics, what are the attributes of the 
romantic hero? And I thought, being a businessman 
and an astute observer and someone who just loves 
women, if I could just find out what it is that drives 
these women to buy this huge number of books. I 
mean, you go to a bookstore and you see these 
women flocking into these aisles, you know, I mean, 
they come in there, it's like a pornography reflex. You 
know, they're checking out "Is anyone going to see 
me buying this trash?" Okay? I mean, and it's who 
you might expect. I mean, it's not the overweight 
housewives with the three screaming brats or 
anything. You see the sharp career women in their, 
you know, their suits and their pumps and their 
briefcases and all this. And they're coming in and 
they're buying these romantic fantasies and they're 
stashing three or four of these into their briefcase at a 
time. Okay? They're getting their fix. Okay? It's true. 
You can go in any bookstore. In fact, it's a great way 
to meet women, is just walk up and say, "Excuse me, 
you know, say, I'd like to read one of these. Can you 
tell me which one of them is a really good one?" 
Cause they all have favorites. Okay? And they come

in different flavors. , There's the soft romance ones, 
there's the out and out fuck books. You know, I mean, 
there's and everything in between. Buy anyway, the 
romantic hero has certain well defined characteristics. 
For example, the hero of these sorts of things is an 
adventurer. Okay. He is not a man who is constrained 
by his life, or by circumstance. Rather, he lives a life 
of adventure. Okay. Now, it may that you are newly 
minted accountant or something, and you say, "Well, 
geez, adventure isn't part of my life.” That's not true. 
It's the approach that you take to it. Okay? As Dennis 
was just talking about, are you paying attention? 
Because the world is speaking to you constantly. The 
world is constantly putting little tests in your way, 
saying, you know, is he awake? You know, is he 
alive? Is he thinking, is he breathing, does he know 
what is going on? Okay? The adventurer looks at 
everything with a sense of passion, with a willingness 
to take risks. Okay? And with this burning desire to 
find out happens next. The romantic hero is cynical. 
Okay? Not cynical in the sense of always putting 
things down. Okay? It's rather, cynical in the sense of 
hoping for the best but expecting the worst. Okay? 
Knowing that the world is full of assholes and you're 
not terribly surprised when you run across yet 
another one right in front of you. Okay.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: But at the same time, within the heart of 
the cynic is someone who is capable of love. Okay? 
Think about it. Cynicism is a matter of contrasts. 
Right? You can have the hardened, world weary 
exterior. Okay? What you have to have, because the 
world throws things in your way, there's not all good. 
Okay? But, the cynic at heart is capable of love and 
passion. And what is more inspirational to a woman 
than to know that somewhere within this guy is true 
passion if only she can be the woman who can spark 
it and bring it out.  

Ross: And that's called a big challenge.  

Major: Yeah. And they love that. I mean that's doggie 
biscuits in front of the starving Doberman, you know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? The romantic hero loves women, 
appreciates women, is unafraid of women, appreciates 
them for who they are. Okay? Enjoys their femininity, 
enjoys the test of wills. Okay? Is willing to accept 
them within their place, is open to the idea of being 
conquered because that's the heart of these novels. I 
mean, it's really an a, b, c type of plot in all these 
things. I mean, it can be set in Victorian England, it 
can have, what was that one? Celic Hard Rod? 

Ross: Celic Hard rod.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Now there's a heroic name. I am Celic 
Hard Rod.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: He was a fierce Viking adventurer, let's 
see 

Ross: Laugh 

Major Mark: The whole thing involves women 
bringing out love, conquering through love. Okay? 
It's what they want to lead with, it's what they want to 
finish with. Okay? But at the same time, you're 
disassociated from outcome. Okay? In other words, 
the romantic hero in these things is not just putzing 
along, whining, thinking, "I don't have the right suit 
or I don't have the right Viking boat in order to get the 
chicks.” Okay, you know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Yeah, I need a really big boat. Yeah. Let's 
go downtown and pick us some oars. But rather, ...  

Ross: That's going to be in a movie.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Do we have a writer in the room? 

Major Mark: He's writing the Speed Seduction 
screenplay.  

Ross: You don't have to write, just take notes, it's 
writing itself for you.  

Audience: My hand's crippled already.  

Ross: Laugh 

Major Mark: That's the hand you use.  

Audience: Laughter. I have an old friend who's 
always thinking he going to score if he could just get 
a hairpiece.  

Ross: Yeah. Well, you know, maybe he should get a 
helmet with horns. It works, it works.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: It worked for you Celic.  

Ross: That's right.  

Major Mark: But see, rather, the romantic hero has a 
life, he is going about his life, and by chance, he 
encounters this woman, and it's like, woooo, she's 
interesting, and he starts paying attention. But he 
doesn't devote all his attention, he doesn't hang

around, he doesn't keep his Friday night free on the 
off chance that you know, her bustle's been repaired 
and she's back in business. Okay? No, he's going 
about his life and enjoying things as t hey happen. 
And he becomes pursued by her. Okay? Key point. In 
order to have a good life, you have to have a life in 
the first place. All right? And the more of a life you 
have, the more attractive you become.  

Ross: And there's a point here because if you have a 
passion other than her that you're devoted to, she'll 
work like the devil to get that passion devoted to her. 
And she'll give you everything she has to get you to 
devote some of that passion to her. So, look where 
supplication creeps into your life. Supplication is so 
much a part of what men are conditioned to do in our 
culture, that you must constantly check. And I'm 
going to give you an exercise after lunch to check to 
see when you're supplicating and when you're not, to 
make sure that you never d o it. But part of 
supplication is just devoting too much time to being 
around women, to showing that you're always 
available. ”Oh, yeah, sure, well call me and let me now 
what you're doing Friday.” What is that really doing? 
It's supplicating, it's saying, "Yes, you're the most 
important thing.” I'm sorry.  

Major Mark: When I met Ross and got into this, I had 
the typical guy reaction about how I don't like 
rejection. I just don't like rejection. It's not really a guy 
thing, it's a human thing. Okay? And so, I decided my 
hard and fast rule was that I would never, never ever 
ever ask someone out on a date. Instead, I would only 
invite them to join in something that I was already 
going to do. Okay? Well, in order to have interesting 
and tasty things to share with her, I had to get off my 
butt and go out and find interesting and tasty things 
to do. So I did things like I joined the volunteer 
society at the Toledo Zoo. Big zoo, very nice zoo. 
And I donated some money to the big cat exhibit and 
got myself invited to do the things like go in for the 
animal feeding, which is more of a guy thing, you 
know, rip animals to pieces. But also things like, one 
of my most memorable seduction tools was I invited 
this very lovely woman to go with me to the vet 
center and to pet the snow leopard while it was under 
anesthesia.  

Ross: Was that what you call it? The snow leopard? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Well, we did ...  

Ross: it's an albino? 

Major Mark: We did check out the lizard later.  

Audience: laughter. What else was under anesthesia? 

Major Mark: No, it was one of these things that all 
animals are anesthetized and they go through routine 
examinations because they're big important 
investments for the zoos. Okay? And if you're a 
member of the volunteer society, you get in on stuff 
like this. So, here I'd met this woman, I think it was at a 
Ruby Tuesday's. Okay? She was at one these lady 
luncheons kind of things. I was chatting her up as she 
was, you know, trotting back and forth between the 
telephone and the ladies room and all this. And got to 
know her and said, "Hey, you know, I don't have a lot 
of time for you right now, " 

Ross: Hold it. Repeat that phrase again.  

Major Mark: I don't have a lot time for you right now.  

Ross: Okay.  

 

Yates: This is the end of Side 3 of the Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar

Tape 2 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 4 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar.  

 

Ross: And, which is, I mean, well you laugh. These 
things will come naturally after a little while. If I said, 
"There's something that I need to do.” "Oh really? 
What?" "I'm on my way to the zoo. I'm helping out 
this afternoon and we're doing the annual exam for the 
snow leopards. They'll be anesthetized, they'll be on 
the table, and we'll have a chance to interact with the 
animals, So, if I were to invite you to just drop what 
you are doing, would you come with me?" "Why, 
yes.” And we were off to Magic Mark Land.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: All rides free. Just one price for admission. You 
can ride over and over and over again, as  much as 
you want.  

Major Mark: That's right.  

Ross: You know, and since we have you up here and 
since I consider Mark to be the single most powerful 
influence on my work and what I've done, I want to 
ask you a question. You, you were viewed as one of 
the Speed Seduction gods. Yes? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: As something that we all aspire to. Except 
you're married now. Gee, but notice, no ring. He's a 
free-range husband.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Sure.  

Ross: Laughing 

Major Mark: Well, she married a hypnotist. She knew 
what she was getting into.  

Ross: Obviously, when you first learned Speed 
Seduction, you were just Green Lantern, the Flash and 
Thor all rolled into one, immediately out of the gate.  

Major Mark: Instantly.  

Ross: Instantly. I mean, you didn't go through any 
kind of learning curve, did you? 

Major Mark: Oh, just the opposite, just the opposite.  

Ross: Tell them.  

Major Mark: I ran across his stuff, it was probably the 

gallery ad. Okay? Bought the first book, went through 
it, read it, laughed, got mad. and decided that there 
were some obvious flaws in his approach. Start taking 
notes on what was wrong. Okay? Ordered the basic 
tapes. Okay? I found out all the basic concepts and I 
thought, "Well, geez, you know, how hard can this 
be?" Okay? So I memorized a few basic patterns, went 
out in the real world, walked up to a woman, couldn't 
remember what the fuck I was supposed to be saying, 
got all embarrassed, thought, "This is never going to 
work for me.” Crashed and burned. Okay? Went back 
to the apart ment, thought, "Well, I don't like failure.” 
Okay? So, I memorized a few more patterns. This time 
I practiced in the mirror. Okay? Which is kind of a 
self-love thing, that's not a mistake, but, you know, I 
was practicing in the mirror, looking, being confident, 
went out, crashed and burned. Okay? I started getting 
kind of irritated about this, so, I decided to go out and 
talk to every woman I met. And for weeks, I would 
walk up to any woman, anywhere. Okay? I was a 
menace to society. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: I was accosting women in ATM lines, I 
was trapping them in the produce section at Kroger's, 
I mean, I was, I was, you know, standing in line and 
just started talking to the one in front of me, turned 
around and talked to the one in back of me until I got 
used to the idea of talking women. And, in fact, on the 
list, we were discussing this earlier this year. It got to 
the point where, honest to god, I would look up and 
see this amazing and beautiful girl and my reaction 
would be "Oh, fuck, another beautiful girl.” Cause I 
had to go talk to her.  

Ross: Laughing 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: This is called willingness. For those of you at 
home, this is a very important point.  

Major Mark: But the big conceptual breakthrough 
was I -was out at this pla ce, I think it was a Friday's. 
Okay? And I was at the bar and, of course, it's noisy, 
it's smoky, it crowded and all this and I ran some 
patterns on this one, you know, woman. And she 
was, she was following along, and she was, "Uh 
huhing" and I was getting the pupil dilation and all 
this, but just wasn't a response. Okay? It was a 
passive sort of thing. Like the more patterns I hit her 
with, the deeper in she went, but she wasn't coming 
back out. Okay? So I had another, "Oh, shit" kind of 
reaction, excused myself, "hi, just thanks, good to 
meet you, da da da da, " Went on and finished my 
drink and about 15 minutes later, I go walking out into

the parking lot cause I was going to go home. 
Another evening of failure, right? All of a sudden I 
hear, you know, the distinctive tap of high heels on a 
hard surface. Okay? I hear, it's well, I'm conditioned to 
certain things, you know. And hear these, this 
running feet in high heels coming up behind me and I 
turn around and here's this girl from the bar, and she 
launches herself at me, in the parking lot, all over me, 
sucking my face, I mean, just groping me, just going 
wild. I'm thinking, "This is cool.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Maybe this stuff works. The big 
breakthrough for me was that I, I realized, there's this 
thing called reframing, which is if you have any 
attitude, belief, behavior, whatever, and it's not 
working for you, there's always another way of 
looking at It that works much better. Okay? And when 
I was working on his canned stuff, which was more 
direct and less subtle than it is now, it's true, and, ...  

Ross: Sure, no problem.  

Major Mark: and, and, still, it worked like a charm. It 
wasn't working for me. But rather than say, "This stuff 
doesn't work, " I said, "Wait a minute. This is working 
for other guys.” Okay? "What's wrong with this 
picture?" And I realized I was bringing too much of 
my old self into the new situation. I was parroting the 
words without feeling the feelings, thinking the 
thoughts, and leading the life. Okay? There was a 
remark earlier about, "Well, you know, didn't you ever 
tell, " asking this, "Didn't you ever tell the girl what 
you were doing?" Well, no, he didn't because he 
wasn't doing something, he was being someone. 
Okay? 

Ross: Say it again. Major Mark: He wasn't doing 
something, he was being someone. Okay. And so, I 
decided to stop trying to be a master of speed 
seduction and, instead, I was just going to BE a 
master of speed seduction. And if it didn't work at 
that particular point and time, then it was no big deal. 
Cause after all, I was a master of speed seduction. 
And I just started playing around with it. I started 
doing partial patterns. Okay? I started doing 
outrageous patterns. Okay? Walk up to married 
women standing in there with their husbands and 
start running patterns on them. Okay.  

Audience: Yeah.  

Major Mark: They're most well behaved. They rarely 
hit you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay. And once I started relaxing and 
saying, "this is who I am, this is what I do, " man, it 
was like throwing the switch on a nuclear reactor. 
Everything worked after that.  

Ross: Pretty cool, pretty neat, pretty good, pretty 
cool. What an amazing thing we do. Any questions 
for Major Mark? Cause he's going to be back here a 
lot this weekend.  

Major Mark: I'm here all weekend.  

Ross: He's here all weekend. He's bringing his, and 
you're going to do, we will do a segment on seducing 
married women. Okay? Yeah.  

Major Mark: I sleep with a married woman every 
night.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Now you do. Okay. Thank you Major Mark.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross; So, what I want to do before lunch, we're going 
to take like another 15, take another 15 minutes and 
then we'll go to lunch. I'm aware that tummies are 
rumbling and people are hungry and all that. I tracking 
the room, I've got you all. I want to talk a little bit 
about ...  

Audience: You said take a break.  

Ross: No I didn't.  

Audience: Laughter. _____ another 15 minutes.  

Ross: I said we'll do another 15 minutes and then we'll 
go to lunch, but, that's okay. I want to talk about 
having the proper attitudes, the attitudes that really 
make this work, the attitudes that really, really drive 
this material. And, I have these rules that I came LIP 
With. I was sort of' sitting there one night, going, I 
heard like Moses, you know, "Thou shallot this. thou 
blah, blah" 

Audience: Sitting there with Your clay tablets.  

Ross: Yeah. Hmmm, these would make good rules. Oh, 
you know what? If I play this through here, it won't 
pick up, will it? 

Yates: Sure.  

Ross: If I play the little tape through this,  

Yates?: Go ahead.  

Ross: Will it be, but will it be 

Audience: Get a microphone, get a mike over there.  

Yates?: Yeah.  

background image

Ross: Well, we're going to test this. Just to give you 
an example of something.  

?: _____ bigger stereo.  

Ross: What's that? 

?: I've got a bigger stereo.  

Ross: You've got a bigger one? Where? 

?: In the trunk of my car.  

Ross: Ah, go get it. We'll play it after lunch. Good. 
Okay. So let's get back to attitude. The first, most 
important rule is "Thou shalt not supplicate.” That's 
the first rule - thou shalt not supplicate. Okay? Very 
important rule. Rule 2 "Thou shalt never ask.” Thou 
shalt, thou shalt not, I want the little finger of fire 
carving it. Thou shalt never ask, thou shalt only 
structure opportunities and offer challenges. Now 
throughout the week we're going to give you specific 
language, word for word things you can say to do 
that. Okay? Mark, talk a little bit about the difference, 
when you structure, what's the difference between 
asking someone out and structuring an opportunity? 

Major Mark: Well, for one thing, if you ask them, they 
can say no. I never give them an opportunity to say 
no. That's a bad thing. Okay? There are good things 
in life, there are bad things. That's a bad thing. Okay. 
Structuring an opportunity means that if they don't go 
for it, they miss out. Okay? Structuring an 
opportunity means that there is something new, 
different, exciting going on in the world that they 
could make part of their lives. All they have to do is 
say yes. If you're asking them something, it's like you 
are picking an activity, or whatever out of the blue 
that you think might interest them, you're dangling it 
in front of them and you're giving them all the power. 
Right? They can say back, "Well, I don't know, maybe 
yes, maybe no.” They can slap you around, play with 
you like they love to do. Okay? And instead, if you're 
structuring an opportunity, it's this moving window. 
Okay? It's that cubic centimeter of chance that 
appears right in front of them and if they say no, it's 
gone forever. But all they have to do is say yes, and 
they get great stuff. Get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So, you want to make sure that you put in the 
notion that if they don't take advantage of it, they're 
going to get screwed over, cause they're going to 
miss. You understand? Okay. Yes sir.  

Audience: You said where you use being with 

Ross: Yes, this is next thing we're going to get to. 

Okay, so here's a killer. Yes sir.  

Audience: How do you do that? 

Ross: I'm going to show you, okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: We're going to show you. So, here's the next, 
here's the next attitude/rule I want you to get is 
"being with you, being with you is the best possible 
thing that could happen to that woman.” Now, is this 
something you want to talk about? Do you want to 
say it out loud? "Hey, baby, being with me is the best 
possible thing that could happen to you.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No. You know. Cut this, just for a second would 
you? 

?: I got to believe in those best possible things that 
you have. Now, you don't _____ it. It shows in your 
attitude, in your voice, the way you carry yourself, 
the way you make your approach about any _____ .  

Ross: The next rule or attitude is  

Ross: Okay. So the next attitude or rule is you give a 
woman a little bit of what she wants and then you pull 
away and make her work for more. The next attitude or 
rule is you always give a woman a little bit of what 
she wants and then you pull away and you make her 
work for more. That's part of the structure of being a 
challenge, but also, also what it does is, it gives you 
more value in her eyes. There's a sick part of human, 
not sick, it's just human nature, that what you obtain 
too easily you tend to put a cheap value to. To me 
something is valuable according to what I can do with 
it, not how much I have to pay to get it, but I'm, I think 
I'm exceptional in that respect. So, if you're too 
available she's going to devalue what you have to 
offer, so you give a little bit of what she wants and 
you pull away and you make her work for more. Now, 
later on in the weekend, pretty soon, you'll see how 
we incorporate these so you actually don't just think 
about them, they become who you are. I have very 
specific techniques to get these inside your mind. 
Okay? My next one is "I never get rejected, I only 
discover if a woman has good taste.” 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: I like that one. I never get rejected, I only 
discover if a woman has good taste. Okay. The next 
rule is "You always call a woman on her bullshit.” The 
next rule is "You always call a woman on her bullshit.” 
Look for the respect opportunity. You always call a 
woman on her bullshit, look for the respect 

background image

opportunity. Let me tell you what I mean by that. Let 
me tell you what I mean by that. Another way to say it 
is "Thou shalt prepare in advance for bullshit so thou 
doest not have to eat any.” So you can write that. 
”Thou shalt prepare in advance for bullshit so thou 
doest not have to eat any.” Cause women will test 
you, human beings test other human beings, but 
women will test you to see how strong you are. Now 
here's the mistake, here are the 2 mistakes to make. 
Okay? One is to appease her rather than to call her on 
it. The other is to rage and lose you temper. Now, 
there's a time and place to, to show anger, but the 
best thing you can do is calmly tell her what your rule 
is. Go, "Look, this is what you did, this is what my 
rule is. If you expect to be with me, do something else 
the next time cause I won't put up with it.” To do it 
calmly, if you take a very strong message and you 
deliver it low key and calmly, people aren't used to 
that. It fries their circuits and they become very 
suggestible. You understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Major Mark: If you're reacting out of anger, she has 
the power.  

Ross: Let me give you an example how, there's 
someone I dated like 8, 8 years ago before I really got 
into Speed Seduction and I recently ran into her 
again. And I told her about the Rolling Stones story 
and she never even bothered to pick it up. And she 
sent me some e-mail and I said, "No, I don't want to 
deal with you. Had you had some major breakthrough 
in your career, I would have gone right to the 
newsstand to read about it. And you're still the same 
self-absorbed loser you were when I knew you, you 
know, 8, 9 years ago and I'm not going to deal with it.” 
And boy, from then on, she was just so eager to be 
nice. I didn't, you know, put any profanity in there, it 
was a simple message, both delivered in e-mail and 
the phone when she called me to talk to me about it. I 
said, "No, you're the same self-absorbed loser you 
were.” I called her on it. Now, here's a weird thing, 
guys. This is a really sick thing, but it's true. Women 
want to be able to trust you. They trust what they 
perceive as being sincere communication, so, look, I 
didn't say it was sincere, I said what they perceive to 
be sincere. So, "perceived sincere communication 
leads to trust which leads to extreme comfort which 
leads to her to be open to a lot more intense states.” 
Here's the problem. I want you to really listen to me. 
You nice guys who've ever done something nice and 
you find she really rejects you for it and really doesn't 
trust you, here's why. Pay attention. Here's the 
structure of it. Look up here. Most women think that 

when a guy who doesn't really know them is being 
nice, their thought process is, "He's only  doing this to 
get into my pants.” And therefore, what is she 
perceived? Does she perceive your communication as 
sincere? 

Audience: No 

Ross: She perceives it's insincere so she doesn't trust 
you, which leads to resentment. Now.  

Audience: Right.  

Ross: And she's right. But how many women would 
ever think that you would be angry with them to get 
into their pants? If you're angry with them and tell 
them off, none of them are going to go, "He's saying 
this just so lie can be, he's being angry just so he can 
get into my pants.” They're going to go, "Oh, he 
sincerely communicated with me. I trust him.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You disagree? You agree? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: You have to think about it, okay. I'm serious.  

Audience: What's after trust,  

Ross: Extreme comfort which means they're open to 
more intense states with you, like sexual arousal and 
all that other good stuff. Now listen to me. I'm not 
saying you should rage at them or any, or get vulgar 
or lose control. Within the bounds of your own self-
control, show some anger, when it's appropriate. Tell 
them off.  

Major Mark: Right. You're not looking for the first 
opportunity to slap her around in order to fulfill to 
checkoff list here, okay? But, just like Celic Hard Rod, 
who is the cynical, world-weary kind of guy, you 
expect the worst out of human nature cause you're 
going to find it and you're not going to accept it in 
you life. The first time it happens, this. You do have 
to be angry about it, it's just like, "Okay, maybe you 
didn't understand so here, explicitly is the rule. I don't 
put up with this shit. Do it again and I'm out of here.” 

Ross: I had a massage therapist fail to call me back in 
time so I booked a massage with someone else. And 
when she called to see if I wanted a massage, I said, "I 
already booked. You didn't call me back, I didn't here 
from you.” She's like really pissed; I could hear her 
steaming on the other end of the phone. ”Well, well 
...” I said, "Hey, you don't return my calls promptly, 
my assumption is you don't care or you can't do it. So, 
if you want to deal with me, I don't care what you do 
with other people, " this is how I said it. I said, "It's 

background image

 

40

none of my business what you do with other people. 
That's for you to decide. But when it comes to me, if 
you're going to deal with me, this is my expectation. 
You can meet it or not meet it. But the only way you're 
going to deal with me is if you meet it.” She's like, 
"Hmm, hmm, hmm, well, okay.” And by the way, you 
owe people that. If you don't people what your rules 
are, they won't know. And they're going to resent 
you. Now the final one before we go to lunch. Okay? 
This is a difficult one to grasp at first. It's "Never 
attach excess meaning.” Let me tell you what I mean 
by that. You ever wonder, other, other than the fact, 
there's a lot of ways this, this, this works. Other one, 
ever wonder, other than the fact that she makes you 
go, "Uh uh uh uh" with sputtering lust, why guys 
attach so much meaning to be accepted by a beautiful 
woman? Let's say there are 2 women at a party. One's 
something that out of the X-files. Okay? You run 
away screaming. And then one's an absolute, 
gorgeous, whatever your idea of the perfect, ideal 
woman is. Who would be easier to talk to? 

Audience: The X-files girl 

Ross: The X-files girl? Yeah. Exactly.  

Audience: There's nothing to worry about.  

Ross: There's nothing to worry about. And if she likes 
you, who cares? Her opinion doesn't carry much 
weight. But here's the thing that men think. Men think 
that if a beautiful woman likes you, there's some kind 
of psychic friends network with all the other beautiful 
women in the world and that means you've got a free 
pass from there on in. Or, if she rejects you, that 
psychically, I had some client tell me this. He really 
believed this. That every other woman in the world 
would instantly know that he was unacceptable. 
Okay? This is the structure,  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: This is the structure of paranoia wouldn't you 
say Dr. Mark?  

Major Mark: Yeah. It's not a good place to start from.  

Ross: So, I like to talk about one woman, one vote. I 
tell this story a lot but 

Audience: There's actually a Seinfeld episode that 
_____ . I don't know if you ever saw that.  

Ross: No.  

Audience: Now, George dates this beautiful model 
and he suddenly _____ all the good women in the 
world. It's like a club he's in and they just are falling all 
over him. Then, once he loses one of them, 

everybody's lost.  

Ross: Hmm. Seinfeld. Not reality.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? This is a true story. This is a New Year's 
Eve many years ago and I went in to the party and, 
right away, I saw the most beautiful woman and went 
right up to her, without any hesitation, got her phone 
number. She left the party. I thought, "My work is 
done. I'll be nice.” I approach this huge blimp of a 
woman and I asked, joked around with her, asked for 
her number, she said, "No, you're not my type.” I was 
like, "ehhhh.” So, it's one woman, one vote. But the 
other thing is, you ever meet a woman and you click 
in really well, you just feel great about her and you go 
home and you imagine introducing her to all you 
friends. And you think to yourself, "This is the girl for 
me.” And you're convinced after that first date or first 
meeting that she's the one for you. You ever do that? 
Anyone ever do that? How many of you? Keep you 
hands up. Of those of you, keep you hands up if 
you've done that, how many of you were then able to 
go on and control that relationship and have power 
and choice in that relationship? Keep your hands up 
if you were able to do that.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? So, you want to be able to do that with 
her. Who's a big guy, who, who's, who out-muscles 
me by a lot? Most of you do.  

Audience: Hey, Ross.  

Ross: What? 

Audience: When that does happen, it's after a big 
fight. When you're finally tired of it and you go, "Oh, 
I'm done.” Then, you can go back and have control of 
the relationship cause you lost excess meaning.  

Ross: Yeah that's true. Someone's not, you're bigger, 
come up here, you're bigger than me, come up here. 
Come up here. We're going to have a fight right now. 
So, you're a big guy, okay? But here's what I want 
you to do. I want you to lean forward like this, put on 
one foot, put one foot in the air, lean for-ward, put 
your hand all the way out like this and punch me. 
Okay? I got him. Okay? So, when you do that, when 
you attach excess meaning, metaphysically, you're 
leaning forward and you're about to get your head 
bashed in. Okay? So never attach excess meaning, 
being successful or not being successful, to any 
particular woman. Women are like Doritos. Eat all you 
want, we'll make more.  

Audience: Laughter

Ross: Lunchtime.  

BREAK 

Ross: There, for those of you who are at home was 
just some phone fun I was having. The whole point 
being that you want to have fun with this. One of the 
things I would like to help you install, we're going to 
work on your self in the next hour or so, is to install 
the right state of consciousness when you do this. 
Now a lot of people talk about confidence and I know 
I've talked about confidence, but to me, the problem 
with confidence is it's so damn serious. The key to 
doing this is having fun and being playful as you 
heard on that tape. The more playful you are, the more 
blatant you can be. I am absolutely blatant with this 
stuff. I mean, you know. I was at Mark's wedding, just 
having a riot of a time. I walked up to this girl; I went, 
she said, "What are you doing?" I said, "I'm just 
feeling your aura.” She said, "What?" I said, "I'm 
feeling your aura.” I went, "You're multi-orgasmic, 
aren't you?" And she started blushing. I s aid, "You 
have a hot date tonight, don't you? There's someone 
you're looking forward to getting with.” And she's like 
beet red and turn, ***********************, and 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She said, "How did you know that?" I said, 
"Oh, I can tell.” I know when people have that 
mindset. I was fucking with her a little bit. so, you 
have to forgive me. My voice is really _____ . It's 
from allergies. We have terrible pollen counts in L. A. 
I want to talk about sound, how sound is vitally 
important in creating your mindset. This is not 
something you need to take notes on. This is an 
experiential part of the seminar, so there's no need for 
notes. There's no need 

Major Mark: Just a second.  

Ross: for notes.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Huh? Okay. I'm sorry, what was that? 

Audience: Response 

Ross: Oh, you're French.  

Audience: English is not my ...  

Ross: Ah, se va , se va. I can't speak French worth 
shit.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: My English is a little shaky, too. You look 
intense. You not having fun? 

Audience: No, I'm having a blast.  

Ross: Okay. You're like, hmm, hmm, you're straining to 
let one out.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I want to talk about sound. I had a client call me 
up and he said, he said, "You know, Ross. I don't get 
it. I practiced this and I've rehearsed it, but when it 
comes time to use it in the real world, I just can't seem 
to get myself going.” I said, "Okay. Well, what are 
you doing to yourself on the inside? I want to be you 
for a day. Since I don't have your problem, I need to 
know how you produce it so I can be you. I'm a 
method actor. I need to know what you do on the 
inside of your head to get to have to problem.” He 
says, "Well, I see a pretty girl.” I said, "Well, that's 
okay. No problem so far.” He goes, I said, "Well, what 
do you say to y ourself?" He goes, "Ah, " I said, 
"Stop. Okay? You're dead in the water right there.” 
Okay? Because the model I want to give you, and 
whether it's true or not, I don't know, but the model I 
want to present to you, is that there are different 
circuits in the mind. And that different sounds turn on 
different parts of that circuitry. Okay? So, what 
circuitry do you think he turned on when he went, 
"Ohhhhh" and he made that sound to himself?  

Audience: Response 

Ross: Well, was it the circuitry for bold action? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Was it the circuitry, was it the circuitry for 
absolute playful, joyous experimentation.  

Audience: No 

Ross: Was it the circuitry for discovery? 

Audience: No 

Ross: What circuitry do you think he turned on inside 
his mind? 

Audience: Failure, supplication 

Ross: Hesitation, supplication, "well ...” You ever ask 
someone to do something, and they go, "Well ... ?: 
You ever hear that? Okay. There are certain sounds in 
the human consciousness that universally open up 
certain circuits. Both in you and the person you make 
the sounds to. Of course, this is the sound he's 
making inside his head. He didn't walk up to her and 
go, "aaaaahhhh", although he might have at that early 
of a point in his career before he met me. So it doesn't 
matter, you know, you see all these books. WATCH 
YOURSELF TALK. Which is the wrong system. I

mean, how can you watch your talk? But if you've 
ever seen these books it encourages you to pay 
attention to how you speak to yourself? Yes, no, 
anybody? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Well, the problem with it, is they're already too 
late. The sounds you make on the inside before you 
start a train of thought - remember when we talked 
about trains - will determine what track you go on. So, 
that being the case, one of the t hings I want to train 
you to do is to experiment with what, what sequence 
of sounds produces the right state of consciousness. 
So when you see that woman, you're there 
approaching her without any hesitation and the fact 
you're having fun. Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Yes? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: If it doesn't make sense to someone, please 
raise your hand. I'm willing to talk to you about it and 
make it sensible. Cause there may be someone at 
home equally dull. Just kidding.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. Does it make sense? So, we're going to 
have some fun. We're gonna, you're gonna follow me 
and then we're going to break up into groups and do 
some experimentation. So, let's see, who is shy about 
approaching women? Okay? Who else is shy about 
approaching women? Who's shy about raising their 
hand here in class? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You. Yeah, what's your name? Come up.  

Audience: Andy 

Ross: We're going to fuck with you. We're going to 
fuck you up, Andy. This is the fun part for me, when I 
get to interact with the chumps, ah, students. Okay. 
So, how long have you had this problem?  

Andy: Most of my life I'd say.  

Ross: How old are you now? 

Andy: 23 

Ross: You ready to get rid of it? 

Andy: Yes, I am 

Ross: Okay. Sounds good to me. I, do you believe 
him? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: I believe him. Okay, cool. It's gone, just kidding.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You got it unconsciously. All right, listen, 
here's what we're going to do. We're going, we're 
going to have fun. Okay? Here's what we're going to 
do. You ever watch cartoons? 

Andy: When I was little 

Ross: Yeah. Did you ever watch Rocky and 
Bullwinkle? 

Andy: A couple of times.  

Ross: Okay. Do you know the Rocky and Bullwinkle 
theme? 

Andy: No 

Ross: Okay. We're going to do it together, okay? 
Now, when you do it, I want you to make the motions 
in there, okay? I'm going to hum it for you first. It 
goes, do you know it Chris, the Rocky and Bullwinkle 
thing? 

Chris: I can't, I can't picture it.  

Ross: It goes, da, da, well, you don't picture a theme, 
you hear it.  

Audience: Laughter 

Chris: I can't hear or picture it 

Ross: All right, okay. It goes da da da da da da, da da 
da da da da da da, da da da da da da da da ... You 
know that one? 

Andy: Yes 

Ross: Okay. So, put your hands out like this. Boy, 
people will do what you tell them to. It's amazing.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. I want you to, da da da da da da da, no 
just your hands, you don't have to move your whole 
body. Da da da da da da, hum it out loud.  

Andy: Da da da da da da  

Ross & Andy: Da da da da da da ...  

Ross: Open your mouth. Da da da da da da ... like that.  

Andy: Da da da da da da 

Ross & Andy: Da da da da da da ...  

Ross: I feel foolish.  

Ross & Andy: Da da da da da da ...

Ross: Okay. Good. Now watch, we're going to do 
another sound. So that's the first one. So the first just 
one in the sequence, thank you Brother Brent, just 
stay there, is Rocky and Bullwinkle. Okay? Okay? 
Now I want us all to do it. You ready? So, put your, 
hold that would you? Put your hands up like this and 
go 

Ross & Audience: Da da da da da, da ...  

Ross: Okay. Okay, good. Okay, very good. You're 
going to think this is a lunatic assignment.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. Feel good? You like that? 

Andy: Yeah, it was cool.  

Ross: Okay, now we're going to do another sound. 
We're going to do another sound. Okay? Can you, 
can you say, can you put your hand on your chest, 
put your hand on your chest and you know Amazing 
Grace? 

Andy: Yeah 

Ross: Amazing Grace has got great tits that I would 
like to squeeze. I'm going to get a piece of it, because I 
am a sleaze.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: So, hallelujah. I want you to hum Amazing 
Grace, so you feel it resonating right in there. Hum 

Andy: Da 

Ross: No, hum. Hmm 

Andy: Humming Amazing Grace  

Ross: You hum wimpy. Come on, put it down in there. 
Humming. Not you.  

Andy: Humming Amazing Grace.  

Ross: Good. Okay. Now, here's what I want you to do, 
okay? Can you go, put your hand on there, and go 
WOW.  

Andy: WOW  

Ross: So it resonates in there. WOW  

Andy: WOW  

Ross: Close your eyes and imagine a woman with the 
nicest set of gazonkers the galaxy has ever seen. And 
she just opens up her shirt and plops them into your 
hands and now go, WOW.  

Andy: WOW  

Ross: Very good. Look at me. Follow my hands, wow.  

Andy: WOW  

Ross: Very good. Now, so the next sound is WOW. 
Okay. We're going to do another sound. Is this fun so 
far? Feel good? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: Can you put those two together? Let's try it, 
just you and me.  

Ross & Andy: Humming Rocky & Bullwinkle theme,  

Ross: Out loud.  

Andy: Humming Rocky & Bullwinkle theme.  

Ross: WOW 

Andy: WOW  

Ross: Good. Now, next you'll close your eyes, do it 
inside your head. Do it on the inside, do both those 
sounds on the inside. You can move your hands if 
you want to. Good. Okay? Now we're going to make 
another one, another sound. I want you to look at me 
a minute. Can you put your teeth together like this? 
Now can you go UMMMM.  

Andy: UMMMM 

Ross: UMMMM.  

Andy: UMMMM 

Ross: UMMMM 

Andy: UMMMM 

Ross: UMMM 

Andy: UMMM 

Ross: Good. UMMM, like you're growling. UMMM. 
Make it come up from here. UMMM 

Andy: UMMM 

Ross: We'll have Kim work with you, okay? She'll 
work with every UMMM. Very good, okay? Wow. 
Okay. Now, can you say this? Can you say, "Let's go 
have some fffff" almost like you're going to say fuck 
but instead, god dammit, thank you brother, almost 
you're about to say the word fuck, but instead say 
fffffun. Can you say fffffun? 

Andy: Let's go have some fffffun.  

Ross: Okay. Fffffun.  

Andy: Ffffun 

Ross: Imagine this. There's a woman standing in front 
of you. If you say it in the right tonality, her zipper's 
going to open, her pants will fall off, her legs will open

into stirrups, and you'll have your way.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? Close your eyes. Remember a time when 
you got that feeling right in there that you really 
wanted to be with someone. And let that feeling guide 
you as you say "ffffun.” 

Andy: Ffffun.  

Ross: Fffun. Ahhhh.  

Andy: Ffffun 

Ross: Can you go ahhh, ahhh? Just do that. Ahhh.  

Andy: Ahhh 

Ross: Ahhh.  

Andy: Ahhh.  

Ross: Ffffun.  

Andy: Ffffun.  

Ross: Better. He's getting there, okay? Alright. You 
guys get it? Can you do it with me? So, I want you 
guys to go, Ummmm. Ready? 

Ross & Audience: Ummmmm.  

Ross: And now I want you to say, "Let's go have 
some ffffan.” 

Ross & Audience: Let's go have some fffun.  

Ross: Okay. Ummmin, let's go have some fun. Now, 
there's another piece I need to do with him, cause I 
can spot some things going on with him. Okay, here's 
what I want you to do. Just to do a little testing, a 
little calibration for all you NLP junkies ... Okay, and 
_____ , heel, vocal cords. Here's what I want you to 
do. I want you to imagine that there's an absolutely 
stunningly beautiful woman that you have a huge 
crush on and you want to go up and to talk to her.  

Andy: Just imagine it? 

Ross: Yeah, imagine it. Imagine what you do in your 
head and feel what you feel if you had to go talk to 
her. Okay. That's not that severe. All right. So we 
don't need to work with that. All right. Here's what I 
want you to do. Close your eyes. I want you to do 
Rocky, I want you to see that g irl and I want you to 
do Rocky and Bullwinkle, then go WOW, then go 
UMMM, put your teeth together, go UMMM, 
UMMM.  

Andy: Humming Rocky and Bullwinkle theme,  

Ross: Humming Rocky and Bullwinkle theme,  

Andy: Humming Rocky and Bullwinkle theme,  

Ross: Okay. WOW, UMMM,  

Andy: UMMM 

Ross: Let's go have some fffun. Andy: Let's go have 
some ffffun.  

Ross: Now how do you feel about going up to talk to 
her? 

Andy: Somewhat better.  

Ross: Yeah, okay. Now we'll try it again. Keep doing 
that. Close your eyes. Again. Do it real fast, Rocky 
and Bullwinkle. Do it to yourself on the inside, cause 
you don't talk out, when you see a pretty girl, you 
don't say out loud, "Oh my god, I can't meet her.” So 
do it the way you do it, close your eyes, and to 
yourself, do Rocky and Bullwinkle, now do WOW, 
now do WOW, do UMMM, say let's go have some 
fffun. Yeah. Now how do you feel about meeting her? 

Andy: Probably better than in the first example where 
I verbalized it.  

Ross: Yeah. Okay. Exactly. That's why I said you've 
got to lead them to do it in your head. So close your 
eyes. I, here's what you're doing. You're still 
sub-vocalizing. Don't, I don't want to see any lips 
moving, just do it all in your head now, okay? Do it 
real fast. Now how do you feel? 

Andy: About the same.  

Ross: About the same as what? 

Andy: As the second example.  

Ross: Yeah, yeah. Okay. So now, close your eyes, go 
through this again and try to feel nervous about 
meeting her while you make only these sounds and 
only these sounds in your head. By the way, when 
you do Rocky and Bullwinkle, you move your body a 
little bit. Yeah. Do it real fast, real fast. Yeah. This is it, 
_____ one of them back. Now, how do you feel about 
meeting her? 

Andy: A little bit nervous.  

Ross: A little bit nervous. Are you doing anything 
besides these sounds? 

Andy: You're thinking about how nervous ...  

Ross: Oh, I didn't tell you to do that. I said just do 
these sounds. All I want you to do is do these 
sounds and these sounds only. Push anything else 
out of your head. Just do these sounds. Imagine she's 
there in front of you. Okay? Close your eyes. Run 
through the sounds real fast. Now,  

background image

 

45

Andy: Now I'm ready to meet her.  

Ross: Now you're ready to meet her.  

Audience: Laughter. Response from audience.  

Ross: Right. Okay. Now, how long did that take? Now 
watch this. Whistling. Now try to feel nervous. But 
only do those sounds in your head. Close your eyes, 
go through the whole sequence again real fast, 
humming Rocky and Bullwinkle theme, WOW,  

UMMM, let's go have some fffun. Now, how do you 
feel? 

Andy: Same as last time.  

Ross: Good. Right. Now, the interesting thing about 
feelings is how they can get better and better and 
better and better the more your mind recognizes 
there's a new direction to move in. And the thing is, is 
once you set yourself in the direction that feels good, 
it like, if you try to go back in the old direction, it's like 
there's a plate of glass here, bulletproof glass, that 
keeps you from getting to any of that. So all you can 
do is look straight ahead, make those sounds in y our 
mind, and if you even try to go back to old feelings, 
what happens? 

Andy: You can't.  

Ross: I didn't hear you. Say it again.  

Andy: You can't do it.  

Ross: Well, try harder. You're not trying hard enough.  

Andy: You'll still have the, the new feelings and stuff.  

Ross: Well that sucks,  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Oh, now, watch this. I want you something else 
about you. I want you to get a little bit of the nervous 
feeling back again. Just a little bit. Okay? Okay? 
Where do you feel the nervous feeling in  your body? 

Andy: Where do I feel it? Ross: Where in your body? 
Point with your finger.  

Andy: Would it be ...  

Ross: Point.  

Andy: Around here, in my arms and shoulders and 
stuff.  

Ross: Okay. Okay. I want you to show me the 
direction the feeling goes. Is the feeling, where does it 
start? 

Andy: It starts at the end of the fingers  

Ross: Okay. And then in what direction does it move? 
Show me with your ...  

Andy: The same, like the same direction you were ...  

Ross: Okay. And where does it go when it leaves? 

Andy: When it leaves? 

Ross: Yeah.  

Andy: Up past the hand.  

Ross: Okay. Now, I want you to do something. This is 
going to be really weird, but I'm going to ask you to 
do it. I want you to take those feelings and move them 
out here like three feet away from your body. Okay? 

Andy: Okay.  

Ross: Move them out here. Can you move them out 
here for a minute? Okay. See them going in the same 
direction, then I want you to take your hand and 
backslap them, like, boom, really hard. Boom, make the 
sound. Do it with that hand, slap them out with that 
hand. Boom. Do it again, do it again. Now try and get 
the feeling back.  

Andy: I can't do it.  

Ross: Yeah, well try harder.  

Andy: Try harder? 

Ross: Yeah. Now close your eyes, close your eyes 
and make the sounds, Rocky and Bullwinkle, WOW, 
UMMMM, and notice how good this feels. SHHHH. 
That's weird, isn't it? 

Andy: _____ difference.  

Ross: Now, now, how long have you, did you have 
the problem? 

Andy: About 22 years  

Ross: How long did it take for us to do it, was anyone 
timing that? 

Audience: About 12 minutes.  

Ross: Twelve minutes? I'm slow, cause my voice hurts 
and I'm a little tired.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Well, I am. I'm a little slow. But, okay. Now, you 
have to practice with this. If you practice these sound 
sequences, we're going to show you more, this is just 
the start of building the states, so give him a hand.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: Okay.  

background image

 

46

Audience: Hey, Ross.  

Ross: Oh, uh, ... I'm only warming up and I'm not 
exaggerating or kidding. I'm not, I'm really not. Okay. 
So take that. So, we're going to work with these sound 
sequences. Here's what we're going to do. I'm going 
to take you, the entire group through this, and then 
what we're going to do is we're going to break into 
groups of 2 and you're going to test to s ee which, 
everyone's different. You may find that a different 
sequence works with these. Okay? This is my own 
personal sequence that I do, so when I'm out bopping 
around, I going (Rocky and Bullwinkle theme), I see a 
woman I like, I go WOW, UMMM, let's go have some 
fun, and I'm there. Okay? Now, let me ask you a 
question. Before we go through that, what circuitry 
do you think the Rocky and Bullwinkle theme opens 
up? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Playful. Why is it important to be playful? What 
happens if you're really serious? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: You shut down your resources, you attach too 
much meaning, you scare them off, all bad outcomes. 
All bad outcomes. What does WOW do? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: I think it opens up the sense of excitement,  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Excitement, amazement.  

Audience: It definitely opens up  

Ross: Excitement, energy,  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Adventure. Particularly adventure. Now what 
does UMMM? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: I think UMMM is more the predator, so like 
when you see a piece of chocolate cake and you 
know you're about to eat it, it's like, UMMMM. You're 
mine. So it opens up the predator. And what's let's go 
have some fun? What does that get you to do? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Get's your ass moving. Now, I want you to 
notice I sent the, the little piece of language in here. 
Did I say, I should go meet her or you should go meet 
her?" I said, "let's" as in let us, that means, it implies 
that every part of you is working together to take the 

action. You okay? Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: All right. So here's what we're going to do. 
We're going to go through it as a group, together, one 
time, and then what we're going to do is, we're going 
to break up into groups of 2, a and b, a and b, a and b, 
and we're going to test each, we're going test different 
combinations. Okay? So, let's do it together. Put your 
notes down. All right? So, we'll start with Rocky and 
Bullwinkle. Okay? 

Ross & Audience: Rocky and Bullwinkle theme, and 
now, WOW, and then UMMM, let's go have some 
ffffun.  

Ross: Yeah, good. Okay. Here's what we're going to 
do. We're going to try the following sequences, okay? 
We'll start out with that one, so the first one is RB, 
WOW, UMMM, let's go have some. Okay? That's 
sequence number 1. Now's the time to take notes. So, 
that's the first sequence you're going to test.

Tape 3 – Side 1 

 

Yates: This is the beginning of Side 5 of the Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar with Ross Jeffries 

 

Ross: By the way, for those of you at home who, of 
course, couldn't see what I did with, what was your 
name sir? 

Andy: Andy 

Ross: Andy. Yeah, Andy looks different already. 
What you couldn't see with Andy is I took him back 
to when he was having, I had him push it out 3 feet 
away from his body and I had him knock it away with 
his hand and he found that feeling couldn't come 
back. Try and get the feeling back. Look,  

Andy: Knocking it away? 

Ross: Try and get the feeling of being nervous again. 
Try and get it back. Ross: You can't do it. You didn't 
see the look of amazement on his face. That's the cool 
thing. You're missing the best thing about what I do is 
that look of amaze, astonishment. See, that's why I do, 
this is why I do what I do. It's the look of absolute 
astonishment that they can't have the problem that 
they had for 22 years. This is the start of destroying 
the reality, cause part of what I'm doing, what Mark 
and I do the whole week, the whole weekend, is a 
structured assault upon people's limiting beliefs. If 
everyone here can sit here and see that he had a 
problem for 22 years and now it's gone, he can't even 
have back, then it's a real, begin to take one leg of that 
table and knock it out. It's an assault is what it is. But 
you have to do that to get people out of their muck. 
Okay. So that's the first one. It's a fun assault and no 
one gets hurt, but it's an assault. Okay. That's the first 
combination. Second one, let's try WOW, Rocky and 
Bullwinkle, UMM, and let's go. Okay? That's the 
second one. Does everyone get that? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: We're going to try every possible combination. 
I don't know how many we'll have here; I'm not a 
mathematician. Huh? 

Audience: 16  

Ross: How many? 

Audience: 24 

Ross: Okay. We'll just try a few of them then. Okay? 
Okay, let's try this one. Let's try UMM, WOW, RB, 

and let's go. Okay? We're going to make, keep let's go 
the last one for each of them, okay? How's that? 
That'll limit it. Yes.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: How many does that limit it to? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Okay. Let's try, number 4 will be WOW, UMM, 
RB, let's go have some fun. We'll do, we'll do a total 6 
or should we do how many? 

Audience: Can you do all six?  

Ross: Do all six? What's the next one? My math skills 
are pretty shaky. RB, UMM, WOW, let's go, and 
what's number 6? 

Audience: UMM, other responses  

Ross: UMM,  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: RB, WOW, let's go. We'll keep let's go as the 
last one. Okay? Here are the instructions. Put your 
notes down. These are simple instructions. You're 
going to pick a partner, a and b. Okay? We're going to 
get an E meter out for each one of you. No, no, no.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Just kidding. Suppress a person order. Ross 
Jeffries does hereby declare this suppress a person, 
maybe trick, no I'm just kidding. Copyright 1998, 
Religious tech ... no. Okay. Here's what we're going to 
do. We're going to pick a partner a and b. A is goin g 
to hold the list and he's going to, he going to tell the 
person the first combination to do. So you're going to 
say okay, I want you to do combination one. And the 
combination is Rocky and Bullwinkle, WOW, UMM 
and let's go have some fun. Okay? Tell the person 
what the combination is, you don't have to do it for 
him. Okay? Just tell him, here's combination one, do it 
in your head. Tell the person to do it in your head and 
have them notice what their response is, how it makes 
them feel. Okay? Then you go, okay, let's move on to 
number 2. Number 2 is WOW, tell them, number 2 is 
WOW. Rocky and Bullwinkle, UMM and let's go have 
some fun. Run them through each one and let them 
decide at the end which one makes them feel the most 
ready and the most able to go and actually go up and 
talk to that woman. All right? Write it down, write 
down the combination that works the best for them. 
All right? And then switch sides and the other person 
does it to you. Do you understand? 

Audience: Yes

Ross: Who does not understand? Take about 15 
minutes or so to do this. Find a partner and let's get 
going.  

Audience: Practicing combinations 

Ross: _____ mentioned the different things and it's 
your dials to twiddle. There is no right or wrong 
answer here. So, what I'd like to do is, raise your 
hands if you're one of the people when I asked are 
you shy about meeting women. Raise your hands if 
you raised your hand at that time. Okay. Those, I 
know you're, let's hear, keep your hands up. What 
combination works, worked best for you? 

Audience: The fourth.  

Ross: Number 4.  

Audience: Uh, yeah.  

Ross: So we have a vote for number 4.  

Audience: WOW, UMM, Rocky and Bullwinkle let's 
go.  

Ross: Okay. Another person out there shot a hand 
up. What combination? 

Audience: Same one.  

Ross: Four? Okay. Someone else who had their hand 
up. Sir? 

Audience: Number 1.  

Ross: Number I worked best for you? I want you to 
remember which combinations worked best for you. 
Who else, one of the shy people, which one worked 
best for you? Audience: One and six. Slightly 
different 

Ross: One and six. Okay. So, okay, another formerly 
shy person that had their hand up? Sir, which worked 
best for you? 

Audience: Three 

Ross: Three? Okay.  

Audience: Three.  

Ross: Three. Okay. Which one? 

Audience: Six-way tie 

Ross: They all worked? 

Audience: They all had the same effect.  

Ross: A good effect? 

Audience: Yeah, yeah.  

Ross: Someone else who had their hand up before. 

Which combination? 

Audience: Three and four.  

Ross: Three and four. Oh boy, your brains are flexible, 
finding lots of ways to work for you. Good, I like it. 
You're not going to believe what I'm going to do next; 
you're just not going to fucking believe it.  

Oral Roberts has nothing on me.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Who else? 

Audience: His name is Oral? 

Ross: That's true.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Yes.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: But, you didn't have your hands raised as shy. 
Yeah, you don't count. Only the shy people, who are 
the people, who else had their hand up? Okay. We're 
going to have some fun. Watch this. All the shy, all 
the people that had their hands up, come up to the 
front of the room. And line up, no you don't need to 
bring your notes. Just remember which combinations 
worked best for you, face the room. Line up shoulder 
to shoulder. Okay? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: All right.  

Audience: Question from audience 

Ross: It doesn't matter. Can we, can you move down a 
little bit, you want scooch down out of the way. 
Move, move, move, I'm going to position, move, 
move, move, move, move, move, move. You got it? 
Are you okay there? Can you, you can sit if you want 
to.  

Audience: I'll bring some chairs up for you.  

Ross: No, if that's more comfortable, you sit. You do 
whatever you want. All right? It's important that you 
be comfortable.  

Audience: Okay, there was a gentleman,  

Ross: You sit. Move the chair over here for him in 
front of the TV so he can sit comfortably. You're 
going, "What the fuck is he up to?" I always tell 
Yates, "I'm going to surprise you this time.” All right. 
Here's what we're going to do. All right. Do you 
remember what combinations worked best for you? 
All right. Okay. We're going to do our multiple group

shyness cure.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: First, what we're going to do one piece. I want 
you to get a little bit of that shy feeling. So get a little 
bit of the shy feeling and notice where it starts in your 
body. Okay? Take it, put it three feet in front of you, 
and go, Boom, backhand it real hard. Boom. Everyone 
do that. So figure out where it is in your body, put it 
three feet out in front of you, and go Boom it away.  

Major Mark: They go, uhhhh.  

Ross: Oh, get Out Of the way 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, don't do push, go Boom. Boom, make the 
noise. Okay. Now close your eyes, everyone close 
your eyes, and to yourself, on the inside, do the 
combination of sounds that works best for you. To 
yourself on the inside, do your combination of 
sounds that works best for you. Run through it three 
times really fast. Okay. And you've run it three times 
really fast, nod your head. Okay. Now I want you to 
imagine there's one super-hot woman across the room 
and whoever gets to her first gets her. Everybody's 
going, okay? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: All right.  

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Ross: Okay. Now. Okay. Try to feel shy but do your 
sound sequence.  

Audience: Can't do it.  

Ross: Try to feel shy but do your sound sequence.  

Audience: Can't do it. A little.  

Ross: Boom. And do your sound sequence. You all 
right? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: I don't believe you. So, take the feeling, put it 
out here. This is not about making me right; it's about 
serving you. Put the feeling out here. What direction, 
where's the feeling start? 

Audience: Response 

Ross: What direction does it go? 

Audience: It just stays there.  

Ross: Okay. Watch. Put it out here. Ready? Boom. 
That's right. See how he changed? Now try and feel it. 
Now try to feel nervous. Do your sounds. Look up 

and do your sounds. Close your eyes and disappear 
the room and do it. WOW. There you go, that's better. 
Okay. Do yours. Try and feel shy, do your sounds. 
No, he can't get anywhere near shy. Go ahead.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Try it. You all right? 

Audience: A little bit.  

Ross: A little bit shy? Okay? Watch this. That's all 
right. Watch, watch this. Take the, where's the shy 
feeling start? 

Audience: Right here.  

Ross: Where does it go? 

Audience: Up 

Ross: Okay. Put it, put it out here, put it three feet out 
in front of you. Boom, you almost backhanded me.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Now. That's all right. I'll take the sacrifices of 
what's required to help him. Now try and get it. Do 
your sounds and now try and feel shy.  

Audience: I feel a lot better.  

Ross: Yeah. A lot better. Okay. There you go. And 
while you're waiting for it to be your turn, I only want 
you to rehearse the sounds. That's all I wa nt you to 
keep practicing. Go ahead. Try hard and vain to feel 
shy as you do those sounds.  

Audience: I still feel a little shy.  

Ross: A little" flow much? 

Audience: Urn, 20%.  

Ross: Okay. Where's the feeling? 

Audience: It's kind of right in here and everything 
goes into it.  

Ross: Okay. Put it out in front of you, watch my 
hands. So it goes like that? 

Audience: Right.  

Ross: Watch, watch, watch. Boom. Now try and get it 
back.  

Audience: Should I try and get what back? 

Ross: Try and get it back and see what happens.  

Audience: I think remnants, most of it's gone.  

Ross: Okay, now do the sounds. Now try to feel shy 
while you're doing the sounds. Audience: Response

Ross: Moves down there? 

Audience: Well, I don't know. I guess it was kind of 
all in this area and so the part up here was gone, but 
now there's a little bit.  

Ross: What, what do you think you should do with it 
then? 

Audience: I should probably bring it out, - it,  

Ross: Well, do it 

Audience: Slap it.  

Ross: Do it, do it.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Do it. Now what? 

Audience: I feel better.  

Ross: Yeah. Okay. There's still a little bit there, but 
we'll find ... Okay. Now you do it. Do your sounds. He 
looks a lot like you, Yates. That's kind of scary.  

Audience: Laughter 

?: Lucky you.  

Ross: Well, try and feel shy.  

Audience: Shy? 

Ross: Yeah. Can you feel shy while you do your 
sounds? 

Audience: What does that mean? 

Ross: Ah, good. He's got it. Okay. You do it. By the 
way, hands in pockets is an apology, so take your 
hands out of your pockets, There you g o.  

Audience: I'm still shy.  

Ross: Still shy? Okay. We're going to do something 
with you, cause you're doing something else. So, you 
hold on there. You try it.  

Audience: What do I do first? 

Ross: Do your sounds. Humming. The combination 
that works best for you. And as you're doing the 
sounds, try to feel shy.  

Audience: It's difficult to do.  

Ross: Yeah. Difficult what? To do the sounds or to 
feel shy? 

Audience: To do the sounds and feel shy at the same 
time.  

Ross: Exactly. That's my whole point. So what are you 
going to do? Feel shy or do the sounds? 

Audience: I'm going to do the sounds.  

Ross: Ah, it makes sense to me, too.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Okay. You stay here cause I'm going to fuck 
you up good. Everyone else sit down.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: This is what's fun for me. You know, I pound on 
people. Sharp, ... Okay. So, sit up straight. Do your 
sounds, we'll see just who, close your eyes, do your 
sounds. Which combination works best for you? 

Ross: Three? Okay, do them. I need my chair. Then 
why did you hand them to me for? I don't need it. All 
right. Sometimes more efficient means I'm required to 
get cooperation from the _____ , ya? All right, stop 
don't feel good. Stop it. Okay. So, so what happens 
when You do your sounds? 

Audience: I still feel shy.  

Ross: Good. All right. Cool. Show me where you feel 
It. I want to be shy like you, so where does it go? 
Audience: Right here and it goes down.  

Ross: Right here? Is it on the surface of your skin, 
where, how deep does it go'! 

Audience: I don't know, about, maybe about half way 
through my body cavity.  

Ross: Half way through your body cavity? Shit, okay. 
Let me try that. I'm not making fun; I'm going to be 
him. Wow, does that, does it make you kind of dizzy? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Yeah. Yeah, it made me dizzy, too. Well, I'm in 
his body doing it. Okay, here's the first step. What I 
want you to do is take that feeling. I'm not going to, 
close your eyes. I'm not going to ask that feeling to 
change any faster than you can do something. Take it 
and only put it one-quarter of the way into your body 
cavity. So instead of making it go halfway through, 
same feeling, same, same direction, but only a quarter. 
Now you probably couldn't make it only an eighth of 
the way into your body cavity.  

Audience: No, not at all.  

Ross: Huh? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. Now I bet you're probably not capable of 
just putting it on the surface of your skin. Cause then 
you might imagine a shower washing it off. Sssssss. 
What's the sound of a shower running, cleaning and 

background image

 

51

cleansing you? That's right. Just rub it right off the 
surface of your skin. What can happen IS You can 
grow a new skin that keeps it from ever going back. 
Sssss. Animals molt, did you know that? Animals, as 
they grow, molt and leave their old skin behind. They 
grow a new skin that fits the new animal that's larger, 
stronger, more powerful, more mature. Once upon a 
time, there were two caterpillars crawling along the 
ground, happy to be caterpillars. And they saw the 
shadow of something from overhead. And they 
looked up and it was a butterfly. And one caterpillar 
said to the other, "You'll never get me up in one of 
them dangerous things.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. Now. Open your eyes, close them, 
rapidly. Open, close, open, close, keep them closed. 
Now, try and get the feeling halfway into Your body 
cavity. Notice what happens with it. What happens 
with it? 

Audience: It won't go.  

Ross. Where does it go now?  

Audience: It feels like it's kind of mushing up against 
me, or like ...  

Ross: That's right. Now, then when you take your 
hand ... First of all, put it three feet away from you, 
take your hand and really backhand real strong and 
go Boom out loud as you do it.  

Audience: Boom.  

Ross: No, what happens when it tries to come back? 
Hit it again if you have to.  

Audience: Boom 

Ross: Now get the feeling back and see what 
happens. Try and get it back.  

Audience: It doesn't seem to be coming back.  

Ross: That's right. But we're going to fuck him up. I 
promised I'd fuck him up, so I'm really going to fuck 
him up. Well, you put yourself in the seat, so now 
you're in for it.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Cause now that he can't feel bad, I'm going to 
show him how to feel wonderful. Don't you, watching 
by unconscious example, learn to do this to 
yourselves. It's only for him. I do not want your 
unconscious mind, the part of you that sleeps and 
dreams, the part of you that beats your heart and 
breathes for you, to begin to do this for yourself, so 
that you can do it in a dream tonight, over and over 

and over again, cause that would be bad. All right.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Here's what we're going to do with you, my 
good friend. What's your name? 

Audience: Jason 

Ross: Jason. Jason and the Argonauts. I like that. 
Okay. Can you remember a time, I want you to close 
your eyes, and remember a time when you were just 
feeling ecstatically wonderful. It can be any 
experience. I'll give you an example of an experience I 
think of when I first did this. Kimmy and I, back when 
we were dating, we went to Alaska. And we went 
fishing. And after we caught our salmon. she caught a 
salmon the size of her body. She's only four foot ten, 
so, I have a picture of her holding that. We went 
whale watching. We got within about 150 feet from a 
humpback whale nursing its baby. And we went, we 
were, ah, ah, ah, we couldn't even talk. And then it 
turned around and it ponged the boat with its sonar. 
Pong. And we were like, ahhhh. I'm telling you, one of 
those. So, remember a time when you just felt so 
ecstatically wonderful you couldn't fucking believe it. 
I have a, I'm getting psychic stuff for him now. I'm not 
kidding. I'm serious about this. Do you ever use 
somatic expressions to describe how YOU feel, like 
"It's a pain in the ass" or "it makes my skin crawl,"? 

Jason: Sure.  

Ross: Yeah. Or, "you've got, I've got her, she's under, 
she really got under my skin" or that kind of stuff? 

Jason: Not so much, yeah, pain in the ass.  

Ross: Pain in the ass. Yeah. You, I bet you use a lot 
kinesthetic sensations to describe the states. Okay. 
Did you ever have an injury to your upper back or 
neck area? 

Jason. - Yeah.  

Ross: Yeah, uh huh. This side? 

Jason: In the, yeah, in the center.  

Ross: Yeah. Yeah. Were you like somewhere between 
5 and 7? 

Jason: No.  

Ross: How old were you? 

Jason: I was 21.  

Ross: Okay. Well, I got the number wrong. You didn't 
have something when you were ... So, okay, if you 
were 21, 20, then I'll just say, how old are you now? 

background image

 

52

Jason: 24  

Ross: Okay, so it's close to being 21, 20, around that 
area. I'm doing the math wrong. But, okay, five years, I 
get five and seven for some reason, so maybe that's 
how old the injury is. I don't know.  

Audience: Maybe it's the vertebra number.  

Ross: Maybe it's the vertebra number. I don't know. 
But I'm getting five or seven. Okay. Okay. Now I'm 
really in with him, so I'm going to zap, there are a lot of 
ways I can do this. I can fuck with you so many ways. 
I have many ways to hurt you. Okay. Okay. Close 
your eyes. I want you to remember, remember that 
situation, see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel 
how it felt. Yeah. I want you to notice where that 
ecstatic, wonderful feeling starts on your body. 
Where does it start? Okay. And show me where it 
goes as it continues. Show me the direction with your 
hand, don't tell me verbally, show Inc. It rises LIP like 
that. And then where does it go? In that kind of, so it 
rises up, circles around Your head in that direction. 
Then where does it go? 

Jason: It just stays there.  

Ross: Okay. I'm going to show you how to do 
something. you ever see a loop-de-loop on the roller 
coaster? Whoo, whoo. Okay. I want you to start it 
going, make it circle around your head, then bring it 
back through here, and get it going again. Okay? So 
circle around your head, and then, put it right back 
through here, loop it through here and start it going 
again. Okay? And loop it real fast, over and over and 
over again Yeah, that's right. A little bit faster. Faster. 
Faster. Faster. Now you don't have to have a lot 
sensory acuity to know that he feels good, right? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Faster. Oh, UMM, UMM, add in the sound 
UMM, UMM, to yourself. Make it a female voice, oh, 
umm, heavy breathing. And now, to yourself, I want 
you to allow a word to come into your mind that 
describes this state. Don't tell me what that word is. 
Okay? Open your eyes, Close them. Okay, now. I 
want you to imagine there's a beautiful woman in front 
of you, say that word to yourself. Now, try to feel 
nervous and bad. That's why I get paid the big bucks. 
Okay, go sit down. Give him a hand.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: I was telling Chris out in the hall that one of the 
metaphors I used is the guys are in, You guys come 
in, you've had this, you know, this problem your 
whole life and you've tried your best to work out and 

you couldn't do it. My view is to like, you're in a 
wrestling match or boxing match and someone's been 
beating the snot out of you and you get tag me. I get 
to climb in the ring and beat the holy, fucking, living 
shit out of this thing that's been tormenting you, you 
know, and just show it no mercy. Break its back. I hear 
its bones crunching as it expires in its death rattle. 
You know, I stomp its face into curve. I like it. It's nice 
and hostile.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: If you're going to be hostile, be hostile in a 
direction that serves people, right? That's way I say. 
Okay.  

Audience: Nuclear bomb  

Ross: What's that? 

Audience: Nuclear bomb  

Ross: That's right. That's why I showed you that.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: That's why I showed you. So, one of the things 
I want you to draw from this is not that I'm some kind 
of miracle worker, because there's a structure to what I 
do. What I want you to get is you can learn to do this 
for yourself. Remember what I said. Granted that a 
woman is going to put you altered state, why not 
design in the altered state you're going to go into. 
Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Now watch this. I'm not done. We're going to 
play a little game. We're all going to go to the movies. 
Sound fun? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: All right. How many people have ever, oh my 
God, how many people ever been, do they have 
electronic stores here like Circuit City, Good Guys, 
what do they have in Chicago? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: All right. Well, Best Buy, that kind of thing. I 
went to buy a TV and they something called pip - 
picture in a picture. So this is for you real fucking TV 
addicts. You can watch the Bulls game here, here's 
Babylon Five, over here is the tit channel,  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Here's Disney, CNN, the Discovery Channel, 
thank god you can only hear one sound channel, but 
... Okay. This is, and I have one on mine where you 
can switch them around, so you can put this one in

the center, this one comes down here, that one goes 
over there. You understand what I'm saying? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross. - It's not enough to be sucking on the glass tit, 
You have to have, you know, the whole thing going. 
So, we're going to play a little game. Doesn't this look, 
who's Jewish? Doesn't this look like an ark? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Buzzo ta to rah. We're now going to read from 
the book of Moses. Okay. So, here's what we're going 
to do. I want you to imagine that your mind, that your 
mind, I want you to imagine your mind is like a giant 
movie screen. Okay? Can you do that? Now, by the 
way, who here has trouble visualizing? Okay. All 
right. We're going to fuck with you guys later, too. 
But for now, what I want you to do is imagine you can 
visualize. Now, for those of you who can't, who's 
having trouble visualizing? What's your name sir? 

Audience: Chris  

Ross. - Chris, come up. Oh boy, Ross is going to fuck 
me up.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: By the way, does anyone have anything for the 
throat, like lozenges or ... No, I need something 
stronger. What do you have? Huh 

Audience: I got some 

Ross: Will it help? 

Audience: Yep.  

you can suck on.  

Ross: Get it. By the way, Mark is someone's who's 
made tremendous improvements, hasn't he? He really 
has. I can't believe it, man. We are fucking miracle 
workers.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Lazarus, come out of the tomb. Yeah, we do, but 
he's doing, he's doing much better. World's better. All 
right. What's your name? 

Audience: Chris  

Ross: This your first time here? 

Chris: No.  

Ross: You've been to other seminars? 

Chris: I've been to one.  

Ross: When was that? 

Chris: About a year ago.  

Ross: Okay. All right, Here's what I want you to do. 
Make a picture in your mind of anything. All right, 
Now, I want to make a point. I'm not picking on him, 
but, there's a, there's different physiologies 
associated with different circuitry and different tasks 
that you give your brain to do. That, if you notice his 
posture, he's kind of like hunched forward. Okay. This 
is a posture for accessing feelings. It's not a very 
good posture for visualizing, so sit up straight, that's 
right, look up, tilt your head to the side, look up. Now 
close your eyes but keep your eyes turned upwards. 
And now, can you make an image of a golden 
triangle? Breathe from up here. Breathe high and 
shallow up there.  

Chris: I can imagine a triangle 

Ross: Yeah 

Chris: but I can't really see it clearly.  

Ross: Well, how do you imagine something you can't 
see? I don't get it. flow do you know, if you can't see, 
how do you know you're imagining it? 

Chris: I can see things in a dream state, like when I'm 
in a conscious state, I just sort of know what the 
triangle looks like.  

Ross: Oh, dream state, huh? Really? Hmm, that's very 
interesting to me. A dream state. Well, can you, how, 
how quickly can you close your eyes. Go into that 
dream state. If you were to put the dream state in your 
right hand, turn your right hand palm up, put the 
dream state in your right hand. Feel it like a ball of 
energy. You ever hold a breast implant in your hand, 
or a piece of meat or ... ? I'm serious, feel it, feel the 
weight of it, the shape of it. Turn this palm up. Over 
here, I want you to feel your normal waking state. 
Now begin to slowly bring those two hands together, 
very slowly. Such that any ability in one is accessible 
from the other. Any ability in the other is accessible 
from the one. You're not sure exactly what that means. 
That's right, but keep doing it. What color is the 
energy ball in that hand? 

Chris: It just a bright silver.  

Ross: What color is this one? 

Chris: Colorless.  

Ross: That's right. Now watch this. (Blowing) Let 
some of the color from that one go into this one. Pull 
your hands back apart. How much of the color went 
into that one? 

Chris: 20% 

background image

Ross: Pour more in. Take your hand and pour more in. 
How much more is in there now? 

Chris: 30 or 40%.  

Ross: Okay, you get it 50/50. Get close but don't let 
yourself get it all the way. All right. Now, put this 
hand down, this hand down, keep this one up. Put 
that on your forehead. Flatten your hand, take a deep 
breath, now see a gold triangle clearly.  

Chris: Yes.  

Ross: You see it clearly? 

Chris: Yes 

Ross: Okay. Now, how quickly can you turn that gold 
triangle into a gold square? Or maybe it will turn itself 
into a gold square. Snap. By the way, notice if you 
want more visualization energy, it goes right from this 
hand and flows into that one and let's you see more. 
You see the gold square? 

Chris: Yes 

Ross: Oooh, notice what it's like when it turns into a 
gold circle.  

Chris: It takes a while, but yeah.  

Ross: Yeah, isn't that cool? How big can you make 
that circle? How big can the circle make itself? 

Chris: It's all around me.  

Ross: All around you, huh? What would it be like 
that, if the color of that circle began running all 
through your body? Ooh. What would it be like if 
suddenly you sprouted gold angel wings? What 
would that look like? Put the ... All right. Now go back 
into your seat. Okay. Now, I have no idea what I just 
did. I was making it up. I was. Based on some things 
he was showing me. Remember when I said, when I 
asked him what color is, the one in this hand, didn't I 
tell you, I said no color? Did you see me mouth it? 
And what did he say? 

Audience: No color.  

Ross: Cause I was right in his head with him, seeing it 
as he was seeing it. Yeah.  

Audience: Were you trying to connect the two 
hemispheres of his brain with that? 

Ross: That's what I was doing. Urn hm. Yeah. I 
wouldn't quite put it that way, but that's what I was 
doing. So anyway. So, these are all things that you 
won't dream about tonight. I forbid you.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: And if I, if you do dream about it, I give you 
amnesia so you won't remember you've dreamt about 
it. You'll just find yourself doing it. Okay. Time for a 5 
minute break.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Let's talk about initial pickups. I'd like to jump 
back and forth between things. Its called 
fractionation. So each t1me we go back to a topic, the 
topic gets reinforced better, rather than if we just did 
one thing all the way through, finished, and went to 
the next one. Plus, it makes it more fun for me. Now, I 
think the most important thing to do when you're 
actually making your initial approach is to be 
outrageous. When I build a state, I want to build a 
state that's outrageous, engaging, cocky, and 
outgoing. Those are my qualities I like to build in. 
Now, you'll notice, nowhere in here, nowhere in here, 
nowhere in here did I say serious. Okay? I want to 
have fun. So, you're not going to believe this, but I'm 
going to show you a really great technique for 
meeting women who look bitchy or in a group of girls. 
Okay? What if some of toughest situations, how 
about a great looking woman who's stunning. She's 
got like a very unfriendly look don't talk to me manner. 
Would you like to learn how to get that one every 
time? 

Audience: yes  

Ross: Okay. I'm going to show you. What about, 
there's a group of like 5 or 6 girls standing there and 
you don't know how to introduce yourself, would you 
like to get that one? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: You're not going to believe me.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Oh, that's fine. Pelone, have you seen me do 
this? 

Pelone: Oh, yeah.  

Ross: Have any of you seen me do it? Okay. Here's 
what you do. You're not going to believe it. Okay? I 
swear to you, this is what works. I swear to you.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Well, try it. We're going to show you how to do 
it. Okay? So, imagine there's really hot h. b. with a 
don't bother me, I'm in a hurry thing. Okay? Here's 
what I'll do. I'll walk up and go, "Excuse me, princess, 
excuse me. Darling I am so sorry to interrupt you but 
you are so precious. What is your name, you big, little 
goddess you? Oh my god, my name is Ross. You

know, I must tell you, I hope your man is nicer to you 
than my man is to me, cause men can be such p -r-i-c-k 
pricks, can't they? My man is a prick with a capital K.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And they'll go, "Oh my god, yes.” "And you 
know, the thing is we nurture, we nourish, but do they 
appreciate it? No, they don't. Climb on, have their 
way, boom, get me a sandwich and a beer. I hate it.” 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: "I just stamp my feet ...” and they're laughing 
and being friendly. Oh my god, they're going, "Oh, 
yeah.” I go, I'll go, "Let me ask You something. With 
skin like that, you don't need makeup do you?" "Well, 
I use a little foundation.” "Oh, come on. Just between 
you and I. you don't really need anything, do you?" 
"Well, no, not really.” "You know, look at you. You're 
just a little waif. Do you eat at all?" I'll like pinch them 
like this, they'll go "Give me a hug.” "Umm, you know, 
you've got to put a little something on. You're just 
going to blow away. So what do you do for a living?" 
All this.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'll go, "Well listen. There's something I must 
tell you. I must tell you I'm not really gay, but you 
look so unapproachable I had to come over here ...”  

Audience: Laughter and applause 

Ross: They're like, aahhhhh.  

Audience: Laughter. Where did, did you have that, in 
the notes? 

Ross: No, it's not in the notes.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, no, now, here's another story. Pelone and I 
were in this restaurant in Manhattan Beach and 
normally, they're real nice friendly women there. Real 
nice place. But, tell them, did they have attitudes or 
what? 

Pelone: Everyone had attitudes. They were even, they 
were barely friendly.  

Ross: That's real bad.  

Pelone: _____ friendliness.  

Ross: We sat there for like maybe half an hour trying 
stuff and nothing was working. So I said to him, 
"Okay, it's time to pull out the weapon of last resort.” 

Pelone: His secret weapon.  

Ross: Now, you didn't know what I was going to do, 

did you? 

Pelone: I had no clue.  

Ross: I said, "I haven't, I haven't done this in a while, 
in like two years, but let's, let's go for it.” So I turned 
around to these two girls and I said, "Excuse me, 
angels. I am so sorry to interrupt but both of you, you 
are just like butter. What are your names?" And they 
introduced ... I don't even remember their names. I was 
like kidding around with them. And I go, "Can you 
believe the p-i-g pigs in this place? You know, they're 
just staring at our crotches or our cleavage.” And 
they were like wholly into it.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I talked to them, I did the gay act for what, like 
10 minutes? 

Pelone: About that.  

Ross: And then I said, "You know, I must tell you that 
I'm not really gay. You know, we wanted to see if you 
had a sense of humor, cause all the other women in 
here have bad attitudes.” And they're going, "No, 
you're gay.” 

Audience-. laughter 

Ross: They didn't want to believe it. So, finally I said, 
they said, "Well, we're inviting you to our next party, 
cause you're just too much fun. You know. All the 
other guys in here, ...” So, this is a really good 
approach, it's a really, now it takes some balls. It's 
absolutely outrageous.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Take some practice. Now let's all try it. Now 
everybody. okay.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: So, here's the 

Audience: Response from audience.  

… All right.  

Ross: Now a really good way to do this,  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: excuse me, hush, I'm speaking now. Okay. A 
really good way to do this, a really good, I'm going to 
spank, pank pank you. Okay. A really good way to do 
this is go get Saturday Night Live tapes and watch 
Dana Carvey do Church Lady.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: That's what you gotta do. Okay? And you want 

background image

 

56

to make the transition going, "Now, there's something 
I must confess, I'm not really gay.” Switch your 
tonality like that. Okay? That's a really good 
approach. The fake like you're gay tonality. It works. 
Okay? 

Audience: I'll try that when I'm out of town.  

Ross: It's called ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That's  smart. No problem. Good strategy. I call, 
I put this under the overall umbrella of put 'em on. 
When I say let's go have some fun, I mean let's go 
have some fun. Put 'em on. Okay? Here's the general, 
the general structure for doing a pickup. The general 
structure for doing a pickup is number 1, you want to 
interrupt their current state. Second, you want to 
focus their attention on you. Third, is take control of 
their internal representations. By internal re 
presentations I mean how they're talking to 
themselves, the sounds they're making, what they're 
visualizing. Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Now, I like putting people on. I just like doing it. 
It's a really good non-standard way to do things since 
they're not used to it. One of my students came  up 
with this approach. He walked up to a woman and 
really wussy, he'll go, he'll go, "Excuse me, excuse me, 
excuse me. Has anyone ever told you look like you 
have a wonderful sense of humor?" And they go, 
"Oh" and they'll laugh, cause ... I don't do that one, 
but he does that. Okay. So, interrupt their current 
state. I like putting them on. Here's another one that's 
worked for me. Now listen. It really works for me. By 
the way, another gay story, another of the gay things. 
Another woman in a yogurt place. Yogurt places are 
great to meet women the hours of 3: 30 and about 4: 
45. There's a secret to meeting women. It's called 
blood sugar. When blood sugar drops in the late 
afternoon, they all go for their coffee or their sweets. 
All right? This girl, by the way, we're going to call 
here on the phone and say hello to her ... She wants 
to talk to all you guys. She wants me to put the phone 
up while you go hello, Gina. So, we'll do it for her. 
What the fuck? Anyway, she walks into the yogurt 
place where I'm sitting there with my publicist. . And 
she's just glowing, and I forget what I said to her, so 
I'm like, you know, "You look like you're glowing. 
What's going on with you?" "Oh, I just finished 
shooting my first feature film. It's a starring role with a 
major star, so I'm really happy about it, blah, blah, 
blah.” I said, "Really? Do you have a boyfriend? Do 
you want a better one? Answer the second question 

first.” She said, "No, I don't have a boyfriend. Here's 
my number.” Then she left. Okay. So I called her. We 
played phone tag. I could never get a hold of her. 
Three months go by and I'm going through my cards 
and here's her card. And for some reason it stuck to 
my fingers. So I figured okay, what can I do? You 
were there that night. Okay? And so I figured, all 
right, what am I going to do here? I can't call up and 
go, "Remember me? I met you three months ago and 
we never got together?" Why wouldn't I, what would 
that be all example of doing? 

Audience: Supplicating 

Ross: That's right. And he who supplicates, ...  

Audience-. Masturbates.  

Ross: That's right. And we've all done enough of that.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: All right. I mean, you've heard of double blind 
studies? How do you think they got double blind? 

Audience-. Laughter 

Ross: I just keep getting better and better at this. All 
right. So anyway. So I figured, just out of the blue, I 
picked up the phone, you're a witness, I went, "Hi, 
Gina. I met you about three months ago in the yogurt 
shop, back when I was straight. But now I'm gay, the 
tree's full of parrots. So listen, now that I'm totally 
safe, let's get together over coffee, shoot the shit, we 
can talk about what p-i-g pigs men are. I hope your 
man is nicer to you than mine is to me and ... You 
know, listen, because I'm _____ the only thing of 
yours that I really want to get into is your wardrobe. 
So give me a call back ...” She calls me back the next 
day. Boom.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You know, boom. So, anyway. So, it's an 
outrageous thing that works. Here's another way I put 
women on. When I go Into a place I find what I call 
the catbird seat. The catbird, everyone know what the 
catbird is? The catbird is the bird that's assigned by 
the flock to watch for the cat, so the flock can feed 
peacefully. So the catbird has to sit in the place where 
he can see everything. So I will sit so I'm facing the 
door so I can see everyone coming in. Okay? Okay, 
catbird scat. So, the woman will walk by me and I'll put 
this look on my face, or I'll even walk up to her. Who 
was there, who was with me when the Penthouse guy, 
we're going to be, the story's being written about me 
in Penthouse, too. So, I'm getting more and more 
famous. You were there. There's a beautiful blonde 
girl, what was her name? It starts with an E. Erin? It 

background image

 

57

was, it was, she was real cute, though. Okay? So 
anyway, beautiful model turned out.  

Audience: Major league 

Ross: Major league h. b. Major h. b. She's sitting and 
the guy says, "Go pick her up.” So I walk around and 
I approach her from a 45-degree angle so she can't 
really see me. I'll say, I walk up to her and I say, 
"Excuse me. I know this is going to sound like to 
oldest, dumbest pickup line in the world, but I know, I 
know I've seen you somewhere before and it's, it's 
killing me cause I can't figure it out.” I did it so 
sincerely, she started trying to help me. Said, "Well 
where? Where do you think You've seen me? Where 
did you go to school?" I went, she went, "Did you, 
was it at Santa Monica College?" I went, "No, no.” I 
went, "Oh my god, I know where it was. I was reading 
a book on angels and they had your picture on the 
cover.” Now she laughed, of course. Right? She 
laughed. Now that's not enough. I didn't want to leave 
it there. I said, here's what I said, here's what makes it 
work. Just that line alone, she's going to go "Thank 
you" and walk off. Here's what made it work. So I 
started out being funny, putting her on. So I started 
out from funny and then where do you think I went 
from there? 

Audience: Sincere 

Ross: I went to being sincere. I said, and then I to 
being challenging. I said, "I'm glad you laughed 
because I think you are absolutely breathtaking, but I 
wanted to make sure you had more going for you than 
just that before I introduced myself.” So the language 
is, "I'm glad you laughed.” This isn't in your notes so 
you can write it down. ”I'm glad you laughed because 
I wanted, I'm glad you laughed because I think you 
are absolutely breathtaking and I wanted to make sure 
you had more going for you than just that before I 
introduced myself My name is" - your name goes 
here. Now, notice the dynamic there. I'm saying yeah, 
you're breathtaking, so what, let's get it out of the 
way, I acknowledge it, point over, let's go beyond 
that. I'm not slobbering over her and I'm not 
pretending I don't notice it either. Now, notice the 
dynamic there. I'm saying yeah, you're breathtaking, 
so what, let's get it out of the way, I acknowledge it, 
point over, let's go beyond that. I'm not slobbering 
over her and I'm not pretending I don't notice it either. 
So, Amy, you could say, "God, I notice you look just 
like that hunk of a stud Ross Jeffries, but I want to 
make sure you had more going for you than just that 
before I introduced myself. My name is Kathleen. 
Excuse me, Brother Kathleen.” Whatever. Okay, get 
it? 

 

Yates: This is the end of Side 5 of the Ross Jeffries 
Basic Speed Seduction Seminar

Tape 3 – Side 2 

 

Yates: This is the beginning of Side 6 of the Ross 
Jeffries Basic Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: My name is Kathleen. Excuse me, Brother 
Kathleen. Whatever. Okay? Get it? Does that make 
sense? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: And then I ...  

Audience: Is this all-conscious level here, though, 
right no"? 

Ross: What? 

Audience: Is this all-conscious level ...  

Ross: I don't understand your question? 

Audience: I mean, there's nothing covert about this? 

Ross: No, no. No, you're being straightforward, blunt 
and you're not making any apologies. See, I'm what 
I'm doing is I'm testing to see if they have a sense of 
humor. Then, as soon as I find out that they do, and if 
they don't, I walk on. Chris, maybe they do. They just 
don't like my joke. That's possible. Okay. So, I want to 
interrupt their state. I'm testing to see what kind of 
response I get. Then I go immediately to being sincere 
and then I go to be challenging. Then I'll say to her, 
"Look, " listen to me, listen to me guys. I'll say, "Look, 
I don't have a lot of time right now, .” Did you hear 
that earlier today? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: "I don't have a lot of time right now, but I tell 
you what. If you'll sit with me for 5 minutes, I'll 
analyze your handwriting. I'll tell you secrets about 
yourself that your best friends don't know, and I'll get 
to learn if you're the kind of person I want to get to 
know better.” Now, how many do you think actually 
sit down and want to have their writing done out for 
that? 

Audience: 100'%? 

Ross: About 85-90%. And the better looking they are, 
the more they're willing to sit down. Cause no one's 
ever challenged them like that. See, most of them here, 
"Hey you, whoo, hey baby.” 

Audience: So what's does "I don't have a lot of time 
right now?" 

Ross: But if you'll sit with me for 5 minutes. Who went 
to get those lozenges or they haven't got any on 
them? I'll be all right. Who here is a M. D. ? I need you 
to look at my throat. Okay? Actually, my butt itches, 
too, so I need you to ... just kidding. How will I tell 
one from the other, Ross? 

Audience: I'll show _____ .  

Ross: Oh, no, no. If you sit with me for 5 minutes, I'll 
analyze hand writing, you'll learn secrets about 
yourself your best friends don't know, and I'll get to 
find out if you're the kind of person I want to get to 
know better. You get it? Do you hear the challenges 
and the opportunities you're structuring there 
throughout the whole thing? Are you, are you in any 
way supplicating? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: Yes sir.  

Audience: Do you have any _____ available so we 
can learn how to analyze handwriting? 

Ross: I think we may have a deck here. I think we 
have product, yeah, we have a deck of cards called a 
grapho deck that we can sell you. It does it for you. 
You go right to the cards. They're like flash cards. 
You match it. Within 2 or 3 weeks, you'll have them 
memorized. They're great. Ebin, do you use them? 

Ebin: They're awesome.  

Ross: What's that? Louder.  

Ebin: The singular best tool for reading women like 
that is a prop.  

Ross: Yeah, yeah. It's real good.  

Ebin: It's a crutch you use.  

Ross: Yeah. I didn't create it, someone else created it. 
But, it's a great product and we sell it. Okay? That's 
one approach. Now let me show you another 
approach. This next approach only works if you 
pause properly, okay? You must use pausing. 
Because when you pause it creates response 
attentiveness. So you want to learn to use your 
pausing. And also learn to speak at a certain pace. 
Okay. Here, look. Here comes Mr. Metronome. Is it 
picking this up? Yeah? Okay. Most of you are talking 
like here. Let me, let me do Mary had a little lamb at 
this speed. Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white 
as snow. And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb 
was sure to go. Okay? Too fast. Mary had (pause) a 
little lamb, (pause) it's fleece was white as snow, 
(pause) and everywhere (pause) that Mary went, 
(pause) the lamb was sure to (pause) go. So, you want 

background image

 

59

to learn to speak at the right pace, which will give you 
some ... Oh, it just died there. You want to learn to 
pause p roperly, so, here's how you do it. You walk up 
to a woman, and you say, "Excuse me, excuse me, " 
brief pause. The dot is a pause, okay? Forgive the 
interruption, brief pause, but you are so, pause, 
pause, pause, pause, pause, so say, "Excuse me, 
forgive the interruption, but you are so (pause).” And 
they're like, "What?" Okay? They're wondering, 
"What the fuck is he going to say? What? I'm on fire? 
I'm a whore? What? I'm fat?" 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: "I've got cellulite?" So, this doesn't work. Going 
tip, "Excuse me. Forgive the interruption, but you are 
so absolutely breathtaking I just had to meet you.” 
Doesn't work. Why? 

Audience: Too fast.  

Ross: Too fast.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: But if I say,  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Right. But If I say, "Excuse me. Forgive the 
interruption, but you are so (pause) absolutely 
breathtaking, (pause) I had to take the risk to meet 
you and find out what the person inside is like. My 
name is Boom.” Okay? Now, notice how I say it. Am I, 
yes? 

Audience: At forgive the Interruption ...  

Ross: I'm being excessively polite. I'm just being 
polite.  

Audience: and the softer in general? 

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: How do you use those without getting into 
the mindset of someone you used to be? 

Ross: Because my tonality isn't "Excuse me" it's "Hey, 
I'm being polite.” What I'm saying is, "I know this is 
kind of a nerve-racking thing, I'm a strange guy, we're 
in the big city, I'm taking, " I'm pacing that. I'm going, 
"It's okay, relax.” It sounds like I'm supplicating, but 
really I'm doing is, "It's all right, relax.” You know, I'm 
stroking the chicken's back. Well, I shouldn't say 
stroking the chicken. I'm ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm tickling the alligator's belly so it can go into 
trance. You know? So, "Excuse me. Forgive the 
interruption, but You are so (pause)" 

Audience: Response from audience:  

Ross: Say it, okay, so, say it with me.  

Ross & Audience: Excuse me. Forgive the 
interruption, but you are so (pause) absolutely 
breathtaking, I had to take the risk to meet you and 
find out what the person inside is like.  

Ross: My name is so and so. That's another good 
one. Now, here's one I've used. I've walked up, this is 
a put-on. I've walked up and said, "Excuse me. I, I 
know this is going to sound like a little, an odd 
question, but can you think of the friend who makes 
you laugh the most?" And when they think of that 
friend, what are they going to do? 

Audience: Probably start laughing.  

Ross: They're going to smile. And I'll say, "Good, 
because I had to see the smile that goes with that 
absolutely perfect face.” "Excuse me. Can you, I know 
this is going to sound like bit of an odd question. But 
can you think of the friend that makes you laugh the 
most?" If they don't smile, walk away. But most of the 
time, they're going to smile and go, "Yes.” And go, 
"Good. Cause I had to se the smile that goes with that 
absolutely perfect face.” What? 

Audience: I was thinking that when you're coming 
back from the mall ...  

Ross: Oh, okay.  

Audience: And when, there's a car n ext to us that has 
sonic girls in it and we started, we started yelling 
something out the window to get their attention. Just 
something real funny, you know, and joking, and they 
just went, you know. And they were just like, then 
they started joking around.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Audience: Laughter 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Audience: They didn't, I mean, I guess they're, I don't 
know if they're threatened ...  

Ross: We were driving around and we saw ... 
Yesterday, we were coming back from the aquarium 
and there's a dark-haired girl driving next to us. Hugh 
_____ bouncing as she was driving. Yeah. I looked 
over and I said, "Excuse me. Are you Jewish?" She 
said, "No.” I said, "Never mind.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Audience: Could you repeat that o ne again, the last 
one?

Ross: Oh, "Excuse me. I know this is going to sound 
like something of an odd question, but can you think 
of the friend, but can you think of the friend, that 
makes you laugh the most?" And then when they 
smile, you say, "Good. Because I wanted to see the 
smile that goes with that absolutely perfect face.” 
Yes? Oh, I'm sorry. I already did it once, so, two times, 
I don't need to repeat it. That's all right. Are these 
good to you? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross. - Another one I'll do is, if I notice a woman has 
really good energy - don't ask me what that means but 
if she looks lively and happy, I'll say, "Excuse me. I 
just had to tell you, you have the most wonderful 
energy. I had to introduce myself.” Now that line is 
perfect. If it's true, if it's really true and you do 
observe that, women love that line. They gobble that 
line like candy. To tell a woman she has great energy, 
it's an absolutely perfect line. If you mean it. What are 
you laughing at? Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: If she's happy, she's lively. That's a very 
flattering, thing to say to a woman. Oh, now here's 
one. Here's an old standby if YOU can't think of 
anything else to say. Find some article of clothing 
she's wearing, and you say, "Where did you get 
those x?" where x represents whatever the clothing IS. 
Okay? "Where did you get those x? Where did you 
get that x?" And when she tells you, you go, "Great. 
Because I really like them.” And then you say, "Of 
course, the person wearing them is a shining example 
of genetic perfection.” Now you think that line is 
stupid, but they always laugh. They always laugh or 
are flattered. And then you say, "I'm glad you 
laughed cause I think you are absolutely 
breathtaking. And I wanted to make sure you had 
more going for you than that b efore I introduced 
myself.” That's a great standby. ”Where did you get 
those?" You can always think of that right off the bat. 
Now, you don't want to go up and say, "Excuse me, 
but you make my dick harder than Chinese calculus.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Ye ah, you'd be off, you'd probably be off on the 
wrong foot. Yes? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Excuse me, but, ... - 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: How do you know, like the genetic 
perfection thing, how do you know that that's the 

approach to use as opposed to the one like you 
approached her before, where you ...  

Ross: Good question.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Let me do this. Here's how I make a judgment. I 
make a judgment based on a couple of factors, which 
approach I'm going to use. First of all, I look to see 
how open and friendly she looks. If she looks open 
and friendly and happy, I'm going to use more of a 
straight approach. I'm going to come up and say, 
"You've got great energy" or "Excuse me, I, but you 
are so absolutely breathtaking, I had to take the risk 
to meet you and find out what the person inside is 
like" cause I'm more likely ... If she looks a little less 
friendly, or I just haven't had much of an opportunity 
to observe her cause she's, she's g oing by in a hurry, 
then I'll use the fake like I know her. Fake like I know 
her. I'll use the fake like I know her or I'll use the gay 
approach. Well, it's true. The more uptight and bitchy 
she looks, the more gay I'm going to get.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Yes, Mark.  

Mark: With a really like tense, I found that if you can 
find some kind of flaw and point it out, it knocks them 
off completely.  

Ross: Well, that's a, that's a risky thing to do.  

Mark: Well, when you know they're going to be a 
total bitch, ...  

Ross: But you don't know.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: You can change states. I don't assume, she may 
just be in a hurry or have a mask up cause she doesn't 
want to get lilt on. But I'm not, I'm just saying, 
"Precious, you are like butter. I had to meet you.  

Audience: We don't get, is there any ...  

Ross: Oh, you have to say it exactly right, you big 
bitch.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: If you say it wrong, your eyeballs will get 
scratched out.  

Audience: flow about you write these out? 

Ross: Huh? 

Audience: How about you write these out? 

Ross: Well, how about you write them down while I'm

doing it? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Well, aaahhhh.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: What have you been doing? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: All right. Let's take, yeah, let's take 5 minutes.  

BREAK 

Ross: Now, I'm switching back and forth between 
topics to kind of fractionate you a little bit. We will 
thoroughly cover each and every one. I can guarantee 
and promise you that. I want to start looking at 
patterns now. Let's jump to patterns. Okay? I want to 
do one of my absolute favorite patterns cause it's so 
fun to do over the phone. Who's the brother, Brother 
Ben uses this on the phone right off the jump when 
he calls. It's the Discovery Channel pattern. How 
many people have heard of or seen the Discovery 
Channel pattern before? And it's in your notes, is it 
not, word for word? It's one of the ones in the notes? 
Yeah. It's in one of the handouts, word for word.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Those of you who are at home, you can find the 
Discovery Channel pattern in your Secrets of Speed 
Seduction Home Study Course Workbook on page 
B85. That's B85 I think. We call it the Ideal Attraction 
Pattern. Now let me talk to you a little bit about the 
structure of the Discovery Channel pattern and how I 
thought it up. You know how I thought it up? I saw it 
on TV. Ha, Ha. I really did. One of the things I want 
to, one of the reasons why I want to do the Discovery 
Channel pattern first is because it helps you 
understand one of the primary conversational 
structures of speed seduction. So, I like to layer 
patterns 3 deep. Okay? The first pattern really gets 
you into her mind. The second one cements you and 
the third one really gets her going. Now the 
Discovery Channel pattern works with very common, 
typical speed seduction conversational framework. 
And that is it quotes something. Now, there are lots 
of things you can quote. You can quote a TV show 
you saw. And this sounds like the structure of a 
normal conversation. flow many times have you ever 
talked to a friend about a movie or a TV show you 
watched? Anyone ever done that in their entire life? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: When I was a little kid, we used to talk about 
Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. Did you see it hen 

the shark was fighting the tiger or whatever the fuck it 
was.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Oh yeah. Tigers can kick a shark's ass. Well, it 
depends if they're in the water or not. Well, ... Okay. 
So you quote a show, a book, you know what else 
you can quote? A seminar. I went to this wacky 
seminar on men, on how to understand women. It was 
so ridiculous. The guy was saying it's very important 
for a woman to feel an unbelievable connection. The 
way he described it, he talked about, you ever feel 
that click right (pause) there, that just makes you feel 
totally drawn to this person. And on the one hand, 
okay, you get it? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Okay. Then what you can do, okay, then what 
you can do is you can quote what a friend said  on the 
subject. My, now, my, I told this to my friend and my 
friend said, and then you go into another pattern. Or 
you just expand on the first one. And now, the final 
part is, you, you say, you offer your own opinion. 
Offer your own opinion. This is a very powerful 
structure cause it lets you stack examples. Plus, 
You're offering social proof. ”Well, I saw it on TV and 
someone else had to say this about it, so it must be 
true.” This is a very powerful structure. Now, I don't 
always follow this, but, okay? So, the Discovery 
Channel starts out very simply. Let's work on this 
together. Okay? If you wanted to quote, talk about 
how you, if you wanted to quote something you saw 
on TV, what would you start out saying? A new 
student. You were going to quote, you were going to 
tell me about something you saw on TV, what would 
you say to me? 

Audience. When I was watching this show on TV last 
week, ...  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: It was about lions and tigers and bears, 
and how they rampage on the countryside after being 
released from some cohabitual habitat zoo in 
Afghanistan, and it was really interesting how they 
contrasted the ... Ross: Very good.  

Audience: So, something like that.  

Ross: Very good. Sounds like we're being released 
from our zoo.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Your unconscious is working. I like that. Okay. 
So, its simple languaging, guys. This is not rocket 

background image

 

62

science. This is, this is the uranium gun weapon. 
We're not showing you an H-bomb here. This is a 
simple weapon. Okay? I was watching the most 
interesting show on TV and they were saying ... By 
the way, this is in your notes, word for word, so, it's in 
your notes, the seminar notes, plus it's in the 
workbook. So, you don't, "hat I want you to do Is 
look and see what each piece is designed to do and 
then we'll go through it, word for word. Okay? I want 
you to get it. Okay? I was watching the most 
interesting show on TV about x and they were saying 
... Okay. So, the Discovery Channel pattern is an 
interesting pattern because it's actually a pattern that 
does a lot. It lets you get some feelings of emotional 
safety and comfort and get body sensations. So, it's 
getting into 2 doorways. Plus, it uses sexual 
metaphor, too. So it's really exaggerating one of those 
doorways. So the Discovery Channel pattern is g reat, 
I really love this pattern, it's great to pick up the 
phone and call, okay? So, it goes something like this. 
It goes, and with each little piece, I want to stop and 
analyze what each piece is designed to do. Fair 
enough? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: Can you tell me why I'm stopping to analyze 
what each piece does? What is my purpose in doing 
that? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: To fill up time? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: So you understand what you're doing. This is 
so important. I'm the only person in this community 
that will say, you need to understand what you're 
doing if you want to do it well and you want to do 
exquisitely and you want to make up your own stuff. 
Okay? Huh? 

Audience: Thank you.  

Ross: You're welcome. You're welcome. I was 
watching the most interesting show on TV on the 
Discovery Channel and they were interviewing a man 
who makes his living designing rides, attractions for 
amusement parks. Okay? So far so good? Now what's 
that first thing doing? It's just introducing the topic. 
So that first bit of pattern just introduces the topic. 
Why is it important to introduce the topic? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: So it makes sense, so it sets the stage and it 
sounds like an ordinary, decent, normal conversation. 
Right? 

Audience: Right.  

Ross: You ever see any of these bizarre schizophrenic 
shitbums who walk up to you and go, "Helicopter, 
pillow pilot, jet plane aspirin"? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And I'll go back and " _____ tweedle dum, Tom 
Thumb, and dum de de dum.” You know, I'll do it back 
to them, but ... You don't want to sound like you're 
talking word _____ here guys. Okay? So the purpose 
of the introduction is to make it okay to talk about 
this. So are there any of you, any man, who makes his 
living designing rides, attractions for amusement 
parks? Okay. Now, here comes the first command. 
And he said, and he said ... What are we doing? We're 
quoting the person they interviewed on the show. 
Okay? And he said when you, when you ... Here 
comes the first command. Now when you're doing 
patterns, it's very useful to do, sketch out the 
following things. The first thing you want to sketch 
out when you're designing a pattern is what's the 
conversational framework? Okay? So what is the 
conversational framework? Here we know what it is. 
It's quoting a TV show. Okay? What are the 
commands that you're going to put there? Write them 
out, separately. Number 3 - what's the theme or 
themes, okay? The overall theme of the Discovery 
Channel pattern is how safety and excitement can be 
experienced at the same time. That's the overall theme 
of the Discovery Channel pattern. What's the overall 
theme or themes? One of the questions I want you to 
encourage you to ask yourself is, what are theme or 
themes that would really intrigue this woman? What 
theme or themes would really intrigue this woman? 
Did you all watch the video, the cable show with me 
and the actress and the, the guy on meth or 
whatever? Did you see that guy? _____ I'm 
something _____ . You all see it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Now what was the theme that intrigued that 
actress? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: I know. What I said to her is, "Boy, I think 
acting is interesting, too. The really interesting thing 
about acting is you want to get to the place where 
you're no longer giving a performance. You want to 
get to the place where you step aside consciously 
and you let that performance flow through you. And 
really, that's about a moment of surrender.” So what 
was the real theme? Moments of surrender, stepping 
aside consciously. That was the real theme. Okay? So, 

background image

 

63

the theme of the Discovery Channel pattern is safety 
and excitement at the same time. Why is that an 
important theme? Cause, isn't that what women want? 
I mean, they want to be excited and thrilled, but at the 
same time they want to know they're not going to get 
hurt. Right? 

Audience: Right 

Ross: Yes? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: I mean, if you can really deliver that to a 
woman, that's a big deal. Safety is a big thing. They 
don't want to be hurt. Who does? Well, if wear my 
special outfit, I want to be hurt, but 

Audience: Laughter. What is that, Ross? 

Ross: Oh, never mind.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Oooh, oooh, oooh, only Kim gets to put it oil 
me. No, no, just teasing. No, those days are gone my 
friend, we'd thought they'd never end, but they did, 
and now I am, anyway.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Okay. So, it goes, and were there any of you. a 
guy who makes his living designing rides, attractions 
for amusement parks, and he said when you stop and 
imagination your ideal attraction. So that's the first 
command. The first command is stop and imagine 
your ideal attraction. Now let's have a look at this for 
a minute. When you give the person the command to 
stop, what are you commanding them to do? 

Audience: Stop.  

Ross: Stop every other train of thought and pay 
attention only to what you're about to hear. Stop 
pause and imagine your ideal attraction. Now, notice 
this. When I say to her, "Imagine your ideal 
attraction" am I saying "Imagine your ideal 
amusement park ride?" Or am I saying "Imagine your 
ideal attraction to a man?" Which am I saying? 

Audience: Man, responses from audience.  

Ross: It's ambiguous. It's both. Here's a general, 
powerful rule of persuasion. If you want to be 
hypnotic, be ambiguous and vague. If you want to 
convey intellectual understanding, be specific. Now, 
is the purpose of speed seduction to convey an 
intellectual understanding to the woman of the topic 
you're discussing? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: What's the purpose of your speed seduction? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: To create a state. Okay? The purpose of your 
communication is not to convey an intellectual 
understanding. Believe me, I used to be great at 
conveying intellectual understandings. I mean, I 
could get a woman to understand U. S. nuclear arms  
policy In southwest Asia. By the end of the evening, 
she'd really understand it. She'd also understand that 
she'd have to wash her hair.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Okay, well it's true. I don't want, no, I'm not 
saying, listen to me please. I'm not saying you 
shouldn't appreciate a woman's intellect. I love 
intelligent women. I'm not bullshitting here. The 
smarter the woman, the sexier I find her. Truly. I love 
bright women, they're challenging, they're interesting, 
they're fascinating, they're better in bed. I love bright 
women. All I'm saying is the purpose of my 
communicating is not to give an intellectual 
understanding. Now it may appear that way. On the 
surface of the communication it may appear that I'm 
teaching her something or helping her learn a skill, but 
in reality what's going on here underneath is I'm 
installing a series of states and linking them to me. 
Okay? Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: All right. So, when he said "Stop and imagine 
your ideal attraction" he said there were three 
elements involved. Okay? He said when you, okay, 
look up here. He said when you take this ride, look 
where I'm pointing. Okay? It's very subtle. I don't say 
"When you take this ride ...” Can we all do this' Keep, 
put our hands, put your hands here. Okay? Slide your 
hands down to your belly button and point your 
fingers, okay? So you want to keep your hands real 
close to your body. Anything further than this they're 
going. So, when you take this ride, you enter a state 
of high arousal. Now, what's the command? There are 
two commands there.  

Audience: It's take this ride.  

Ross: Take this ride.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: The sexual metaphor - enter a state of high 
arousal. Now, let's look at this. I want you to 
understand how each step drives the next step even 

background image

 

64

further. What? You have a comment? 

Audience: Question from audience.  

Ross: Okay. Enter a state of high arousal. So, I'm 
giving them two commands. Now, what doorway are 
we getting into here? Do we, let's do the four 
doorways again. There's the, the doorways are 
emotional connections, getting her visualizing, body 
sensations, and asking her questions that make her 
access herself in the deepest core of her identity to 
answer. What doorway are we getting into? 

Audience: Body sensations, sensory sensations.  

Ross: Body sensations. That's right. Who didn't get 
that? If you didn't get it, please tell me. I want you to 
tell me if you're not getting, cause that means I can be 
a better teacher by learning from you how to make 
sure you get it. If you're not getting it, you're not 
helping by staying silent. Okay? Okay. When you 
take this ride, you enter a state of high arousal. And 
then you say this. You say, "You know first long slow 
vertical climb on the roller coaster? And you can feel 
the adrenaline pounding through your body. The 
closer you get to the peak, the faster your heart beats. 
Your breathing starts to come faster and faster and as 
you're reaching the peak and you begin to go down, 
You're screaming with excitement.” Okay, now. What 
am I doing here? I'm giving a description. I give a 
description. Why do I give a description? Because if 
she's in rapport with me and following along as I 
describe that state ... Now, let's, let's help, let's have 
you make it up. When you're on the roller coaster and 
you're going up that climb, what do you feel in your 
body as you're going up, hearing clack, clack, clack? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Describe it.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Tingling in your stomach. What else? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross. - Shuddering with anticipation. that's right. 
What else? 

Audience: Growing excitement.  

Ross: Growing excitement. So, okay. Exactly. How do I 
come up with this? I say, "Granted, I've been there. 
What does it  feel like?" 

Audience: What will it be like.  

Ross: What will it be like? Okay? Give a description. 
The description is x, y, z, a, b, c, whatever. And then I 
add, threw in some more sexual metaphors. Then as 

you reach the peak, the peak, that could mean what? 
The peak of excitement before an orgasm. You're 
screaming with excitement as you go down. Okay? Go 
down? You get it? I swear, I've had women stop and 
say, "It sounds just like sex or it sounds like orgasm.” 
I go, "Wow, I never thought of that before.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: This is a great pattern. I challenge you, here's 
what you do. To practice your first speed seduction, 
practice, call some woman you know, go "How you 
doing? You know, I was, do you watch TV? I was 
watching the most interesting show on the Discovery 
Channel" and do the Discovery Channel pattern on 
her. All right? Now, I'm not done here. Now, I'm not 
done here. I want, see, I'm taking this apart piece by 
piece. I encourage you to go back to the patterns in 
your, in your notes and in t he workbook and them 
apart piece by piece and go "What is each piece 
designed to do?" Design will tell you more than 
anything else. In fact, we might hold a contest where 
the winner gets a, some kind of prize of some sort 
products or cash - where we have you design a 
disgusting pattern, a pattern to make a woman feel 
sick to her stomach and nauseated by you. Okay? 
Just to show you that it's not the content but the 
form. Okay? Like "I was watching this show on the 
medical channel ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "And they were talking about genital warts.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "And the guy was talking about how incredibly 
painful it is when you get a terrible rash down there. 
You ever wake up with a burning sensation ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: And the mo re ...” You understand what I'm 
saying? I can make them up like that, too. But notice, 
the structure is the same. The content is different, but 
the structure is ...  

Audience: The same.  

Ross: Right. I want you guys to get used, listen to 
this. This is very important. Now I'm rolling here. We 
live in a society that's totally focused on content. 
What is it that you're saying? People are not trained 
to look at structure and form, unless they're body 
workers. Body workers get this stuff a lot faster. 
They're trained to look at structure. Okay? What I'm 
going to tell you is structure and form in our 
communication is intensely powerful. There are 
certain structures that are very powerful. If you learn 

background image

 

65

to communicate through those powerful structures, 
you'll have an entirely different experience of life.  

Yes? Phoenix. Can we get him on the mike? Yes. 
Met-a-man.  

Phoenix: Yes, one of the things that I've noticed cause 
I'm really lazy at making patterns is there's like two 
levels to the patterns that Ross has. There 's what I 
call the met-a-level, which you have the introduction, 
the metaphors, bring up to the close. And then inside 
of that there's actually the linguistic or hypnotic 
trance patterns that are being run. And for sonic 
people they can actually take and g o from "I want to 
start at a, I want to end up at c, and the You can 
actually break it down even more to what sort of 
trance words am I using, or trance phases. If you want 
to get technical you can say, well a nominalization 
there, I need to have an ambiguity there. You can start 
to really get constructive down to the basic details 
starting with the overall structures and getting more 
specific. Ross: Yes. Once you understand structure it 
becomes like designing a piece of art. I love designing 
patterns cause they're like pieces of art. They're like, 
do you know what they are? You know what you're 
doing as a speed Seducer? You're creating mental 
origami. Does everyone know what origami is? Does 
anyone ...  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Origami is like when you do Japanese paper 
folding. You take paper and You fold it into beautiful 
ornate shapes. What we are doing is we' re creating 
thought origami for women. We're taking their 
thoughts and we're helping them to fold them into 
shapes, beautiful shapes and configurations they've 
never experienced before. We are artists with thought.  

Audience: I call it experiential 

Ross: You've been drinking too much of your own 
tea.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: But anyway. So. Okay. So. And he said the 
second element is  there has to be a sense of overall, 
there has to be a sense of overall safety. You have to 
know that this attraction is so well designed, you're 
not going to get hurt. And because you feel totally 
safe, you feel that much more free to indulge and let 
go with all of those exciting feelings. So what is the 
second module designed to do? The sexual, the 
second module is designed to create feelings of what? 

Audience: Comfort and safety.  

Ross: How do I do that? I talk about the metaphor of 

the roller coaster. Well, and this is true, it is 
absolutely true. You have to know deep down. I 
remember riding a roller coaster, being, looking at 
people whizzing by, going "I'm scared to go up there.” 
I thought, "Wait a minute. It's got to be safe or their 
insurance company wouldn't even let them, let people 
get up there.” So I feel okay. Now, that's a bizarre kind 
of logic but it makes sense. I figure no one's really 
going to get hurt on that and their insurance company 
would close them down. Wouldn't let them have it. 
Yes.  

Audience: _____ doesn't work at carnivals and state 
fairs where the rides are put together by the 
pot-smoking guys.  

Ross: Okay. That's different.  

Audience: Ross.  

Ross: Yes.  

Audience: Curiosity. I noticed that you put like a 
sexual metaphor before the safety part.  

Ross: Just cause it fit in to, that was the way the, 
you're telling about the elements, that's just the way it 
fit in. I really did see this on TV. Okay? So there has 
to be a sense of overall safety. You have to know this 
attraction is so well designed you feel totally safe. So 
what's the command? 

Ross & Audience: Feel totally safe.  

Ross: And because you feel totally safe, you feel 
completely free to indulge in all those exciting 
feelings. So the other command is feel completely free 
to indulge in all these exciting feelings. Do you get it? 

Audience: Got it. Ross: Now. Finally. And he said the 
final element is, there's got to be a sense of overall 
fascination. This ride has to have so many different 
twists and turns that as soon as you get off, you want 
to climb right back on, you want to take this ride 
multiple times.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? So, as soon as you get off, what is that a 
command for her to do? Have an orgasm. As soon as 
you get off, you want to climb right back on. What is 
she going to be visualizing in her head? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: So now, what doorway ...  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: What doorway, okay. So what doorway are we 
starting to get into here?

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Visual. Body sensations and visual. When you 
get off you want to climb right back on. By the way, 
when you say get off, she may be visualizing herself 
getting off, too. Okay? You want to climb right back 
on. You want to take this ride multiple times. And she 
may be actually then visualizing herself on you 
multiple times. Okay? 

Audience: Do you sell Biagra? 

Ross: Do I sell Biagra? No. What's the difference 
between a Jewish woman and an Italian woman? An 
Italian woman says to her husband buy viagra. A 
Jewis h woman says buy Fizer stock.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Was that a no, no? You're looking at me with a 
bad look. Okay? Now, watch this. Now I'm going to 
show you how to transition from this into the 
incredible connection pattern. Okay? I'm going to give 
you a phrase, I'm going to tell you four words that \A, 
III get you ]aid more than any four words in the 
English language. Nah, you don't want to know. 
Never mind, well let's move on.  

Audience: Laughter. Ross: I have a gun. No, that's 
not it.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: I have some cocaine. No. I drive a Porsche. No. 
It's just like when ... It's just like when. What does that 
phrase let you do? It's lets you transition any topic to 
any other topic. I'm talking about elephant wards. . 
Okay? It's just like when you see a beautiful sunset 
and you know the sunset has a few imperfections. 
And yet, you don't see that. They fade away and all 
you see the beauty in front of you, overwhelming 
you. Okay? It's just like when. Well, in this case, I 
said, and as I thought about it, I thought, isn't that the 
ideal description of the perfect connection between 
two people. Okay? Isn't that the ideal description of 
the perfect connection between two people? I mean, 
you know that click right there that just makes you 
feel totally drawn to this person. And on the one 
hand, you feet totally safe, totally comfortable, like 
you were meant to know this person, like you've 
known this person forever. And on the other hand, 
you feel all those exciting feelings of really wanting to 
be with him. Like you've ever been waiting for 
someone to pick you up for an evening and all of a 
sudden you hear, knock, knock, knock, and your heart 
leaps. You feel the adrenaline rushing through your 
body. The closer you get to that door, the more 
excited you are. Then when you open your door, it's 

like what you want the most is right, right now, right 
in front of you.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Can you feel that? It would be an amazing thing 
to experience? I mean, I think sometimes when you 
feel that connection, you can even stop and imagine a 
time in the future, say years from now, still feeling this 
amazing connection. And looking back on this 
moment as having been the start of it. Now, let's talk 
about a piece of the incredible connection. Did you 
hear the incredible connection pattern there? Let me 
talk about a little piece of this called time distortion or 
pseudo-orientation in time is actually the proper name 
for it. Okay? I'm going to give you a couple of 
different ways to get into the incredible connection 
pattern. Cause the way I first taught it, it wasn't 
particularly conversational. Okay? So, I want to tell 
you, show you some really good conversational ways 
to get into it. Fair? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: If I can give you three different ways to get to 
the incredible connection pattern, would you be 
happy? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Would you think "Ross, for the first day, I'm 
really getting my money's worth?" 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Don't You already feel that already? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Good. I'll see you later. No.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Oh, let me tell a joke. One way to get to the 
incredible connection pattern is to start out with the 
Discovery Channel pattern. And they you go into 
saying "It's just, you know, as I thought of that, I 
thought that it's just like when you feel that incredible 
connection with someone.” And then you begin to do 
that pattern. You get it? Now, there's a part of the 
incredible connection pattern when you say, 
"Sometimes the point where you can just stop and 
imagine a time in the future, say years from now, still 
feeling this incredible connection and looking back on 
this moment as having been the start of it.” I want to 
look at that languaging for a minute and show you 
what you're doing. Okay? Sometimes to point where, 
the point where is a weasel phrase. To the point 
where means something's happening and it's 
happening so strongly that you're about to have an 

background image

even better experience, or more intense experience. 
Okay? To the point where you can just stop, what 
was the comment you made? You said something to 
yourself.  

Audience: I did? 

Ross: You went ...  

Audience: I didn't know I did.  

Ross: Oh, yeah. You did.  

Audience: I didn't think you _____ for it, but I ...  

Ross: You did. Sometimes the point where you begin 
to talk to yourself unconsciously on the inside. 
Sometimes the point where you can stop and imagine 
a time in the future, say years from now, what are you 
telling her to do? You're telling her to go into a deep 
trance, imagine being in the future, imagine a time in 
the future, say years from now, still feeling this 
incredible connection, and looking back on today as 
having been the start of it. You're saying, "Take the 
present, make the present the past, and make the 
future the present.” It's an incredible double 
distortion. You're not just saying "Imagine a time in 
the future still feeling this connection.” That would be 
one distortion. You're saying "Imagine a time in the 
future still feeling this connection and looking back 
on this moment as having been the start of it.” So 
you're saying go into the future, look back on today 
as being already the past. You understand? You're 
whamming her with a double distortion and her mind 
cannot resist it. Do you get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So now you're not just some stranger who she's 
suddenly feeling connected to, you're a stranger who 
she's feeling the start of a connection she may feel for 
years. So, you're getting her to attach all that meaning 
to ...  

Audience: Me.  

Ross: Bingo. Now, here's two more ways to bring up 
the incredible connection pattern. Okay? You want to 
hear it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: I don't want to belabor the incredible 
connection pattern, but I do want to belabor the ways 
of bringing it up. Fair enough? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. Now I want to teach you an important 
principle in pattern construction. You don't use it all 
the time, but it is important and it is powerful. Can I 

get some more water? Okay. Good. It's what I call the 
contrast principal. If you contrast two things, one 
with the other, it makes it easier for the person to 
follow along. Okay? How would you like to know a 
way to use the incredible connection pattern on a 
woman who's highly visual? Wouldn't that be great? 
Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: Okay. Here's what you say. It goes something 
like this. This goes something like this. Pay attention 
up here and then we'll go through it word for word. 
Pay attention up here. Ricola, Ricola. There's no such 
thing as anchors.

Tape 4 – Side 1 

 

Yates: This is Side 7 of the Basic Speed Seduction 
Seminar by Ross Jeffries 

 

Ross: Ricola, Ricola. There's no such thing as 
anchors. I have a great memory for cartoon theme 
songs. For those of you at home, I'm soothing my 
throat ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You're getting Kim's impotence pattern in 
stereo. I'm going to sic her on you. He said short 
women are dumb.  

Audience: Laughter. Liar, liar.  

Ross: Don't mess with her. Looking versus truly 
seeing. Here's what, I did this with a highly visual 
woman. She was going, I said, "Have you ever 
thought of the difference between looking and truly 
seeing?" Okay? So the pattern is, the general 
structure of a pattern where you're comparing one 
thing with another, here's the form. The form is have 
you ever thought of the difference between x and y, 
where x and y are two things that are similar but 
somewhat different? Okay? It's, now, notice, you're 
not saying have you ever thought about the 
difference between fire and ice? Have you ever 
thought about the diffe rence between love and hate? 
Cause they're so exaggerated differences, it doesn't 
require much focus. You want to take x and y; _____ 
got to be two things that are similar yet different. Do 
you understand me? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Like hope and expectation. Okay? You ever 
thought about the difference between the two? Now 
one of the ways I came up with this is by watching 
Richard Bandler. One of Bandler's major algorithms for 
coming up with NLP patterns is to say how does a 
person do something, what's something that similar to 
that but different and how can we use that difference 
in a pattern for positive, quick, rapid change? That's 
his algorithin. Remember I said that to you Yates in, 
in, in ...  

Yates: Austin 

Ross: Austin? And then, a couple of days later, 
Bandler said that's how I do it? Remember? He made it 
explicit for the first time? But I told you I figured that 
Out like 5 years ago. If you know what to watch for, 

you'll pick up people's thought processes.  

That really gives you power. I'm telling you how I 
think about things so you can go and construct it for 
yourself Okay. You ever thought about the difference 
between looking and truly seeing? Okay. And then 
you want to describe ... That's step one. Step two is 
describe x briefly. Why do you only want describe x 
briefly? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Cause y's the one you really want to put her 
into. Do you want to put her into x or y? 

Audience: Y 

Ross: Y. Okay. And then the next step is more 
extensively describe why. Okay. So let me do it for 
you. You ever thought about the difference between 
looking and truly seeing? Looking, I think, is the 
physiological process of light reflecting off an object, 
entering your eye and the image being sent to your 
brain where it's interpreted. It's the physiological 
process of vision, but seeing, truly seeing, is when 
you look past the surface and see something deeper, 
see something that resonates deep inside, see 
something that touches deep inside, something that 
allows you to feel an unbelievable connection. 
Sometimes to the point where you can just stop and 
imagine a time in the future, say years from now, still 
feeling this incredible connection and looking back on 
this moment as being the start of it, cause you're 
being touched in that place I call the secret core, that 
place inside where anything can be possible, where 
you keep your most exciting memories, when you 
ponder fantasies and daydreams. Do you get it? 
Thank you. So you start out by talking about looking 
and then you talk about seeing, truly seein g is when 
you, here's the command. Look past the surface and 
see something much deeper. What are you 
commanding her to do? 

Audience: Focus inside 

Ross: No. That's part of it, but listen. Look past the 
surface of what? I didn't say look past the surface of 
someone's appearance and see something deeper in 
their personality. I was vague. But that's what they're 
going to do. Look past the surface and see something 
much deeper, something that resonates and touches 
you deep inside where you truly are. Sometimes to the 
point where you can just stop and imagine a time in 
the future, still feeling that incredible connection. You 
get it? I'm really giving Audience: Response from 
audience.  

Ross: Oh, I missed your pants. Good. I got that.

Audience: So the friends, the movie, the hours, the 
big experience and all _____  

Ross: Right. Okay? So we're going stack them. The 
first example I used is if you've ever been out with 
friends who you feel really comfortable with. Why am 
I using that one? Cause I want her to feel really 
comfortable with me. And that's what we call, how 
many people have ever had that experience of being 
out with friends you really like and time flies? flow 
many people never had that experience? How many 
people had the opposite experience? You're with 
someone you can't stand, the evening is dragging? 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: What's that? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: By the way, you notice how fast this day has 
gone by? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Subjectively to me it seems about two hours. 
I'm not kidding. Okay? 

Audience: Which one, you wouldn't want to tell the 
negative one, are you? 

Ross: No, no, positive ones. Although where would it 
be useful to tell negative examples? 

Audience: Getting rid of somebody.  

Ross: To get rid of someone or to anchor it  to 
someone else.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Like, let's say she has a boyfriend. She has a 
boy friend Ralph. You go Ralph, huh? Tell me a little 
bit more about Ralph. Okay? So Ralph's a doctor, um 
um. And how long have you been seeing Ralph? Oh, 
so this becomes her, your, whenever you do this 
she'll think of Ralph and go "You know. You ever 
been out with someone and you start to notice 
imperfections in them?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's like the evening dragster. Boy, it grates on 
you and you look at them, aaahhh, what did I ever see 
in that person? You start to doubt your decisions 
about that person. You understand? 

Audience: yes  

Ross: So you can stack them. But you just very 
subtly make a gesture. ”Oh really. Ralph, Ralph.” You 
can be more subtle like, "Oh Ralph, Ralph. So tell me 

about Ralph ... ... Name a guy that you ... Dave. Really 
Dave. Tell me more about Dave. Uh huh, uh huh. And 
what does Dave do for a living again? And Dave does 
what?" Then 

Audience: Works 

Ross: Yeah. Then like an hour later in the 
conversation you go, "You know, you ever been with 
someone and you start to really doubt them? It's like 
every time you hear the person's voice you go, 
uuhhb, he bugs me or you start to notice things he 
does that really drive you up a wall?" You get it? 

Audience: Like , laughter.  

Ross: Yeah, yeah, that's fine. And I want to tell you, 
she's going to start noticing her feeling for him really 
changing. Unless he's meeting her core values, which 
we'll talk about later in the weekend. Then nothing's 
going to work. All right. So three examples. The first 
example is being with friends. The second example is 
peak experience. Notice we're getting progressively 
more intense with these. And the final one is when 
you meet someone and it just seems like you feel like 
you've known this person forever. You stack three 
deep and they're what we call universal experiences.  

Audience: What was the second one? Ross: The 
second one is peak experiences like climbing a 
mountain or and how inside you slow time down and 
stop the world and let yourself go with this. Does that 
mean let yourself go with this connection she's 
experiencing with me? Yes it does. What am I 
commanding her to do? I'm telling her inside you slow 
time down, stop the world and let yourself go with it. 
I'm telling her go into a very profound hypnotic trance 
and let yourself go completely with me when you 
experience it. You get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Even though it seems like I'm describing a peak 
experience, the peak experience I'm making her feel is 
the one s he's having with me right here, right now. 
Could that be useful? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: You bet.  

Audience: You got a third? 

Ross: A third one? Very good. You're keeping me on 
my toes. The third one is the experience of meeting 
someone and you feel, even though you've only 
known them by the clock a short while, you feel like 
you've known this person forever, like you were 
meant to know them. Okay. That's when you go into 

background image

 

70

the incredible connection pattern. Go it? Now let me 
show you something else about themes. Yes Sir.  

Audience: You said the first example would be the 
experience of one of her friends or of yours? 

Ross: You go out with a group of friends. Yeah. ”You 
ever been out with a group of friends Debbie and 
even though it seems like only an hour's gone b y, you 
look at your watch and go, oh my god, five hours has 
gone by? Time has just shot by?" 

Audience: Right 

Ross: "But within that space of an evening you can 
be waiting in line at the movie for only ten minutes, 
but that ten minutes seems like hours.” 

Audience: I see.  

Ross: Yeah. Okay? You want to give universal 
experiences. So you don't want to say like, "You ever 
been on the space shuttle ...” Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "and you're re -entering earth's atmosphere ... or 
"You know when you're kidnapped by aliens and 
they're about to insert that anal probe ...”  

Audience: Laughter. It's just like that.  

Ross: "And it becomes 80 foot satellite dish and your 
friends Kyle and Stan and Kenny don't believe you?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You guys, you're being dildos.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You guys are going a long way just to scare me.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: I can't do it. It'll really rip my throat to pieces if I 
do that. Okay? Now watch this. So you've got her 
feeling totally time distorted, she's slowed time down 
and stopped the world and is indulging herself with 
you. Now watch this. What have we been talking 
about? Time, right? Now here's a real tricky one. Time, 
now watch this, I'm going to say "The other thing, " 
watch how I transition this sexual metaphor and body 
feeling. You ready? I'll say, "The other thing, the 
other thing, " notice the transition? "that I think 
teaches you a lot about people, " Now notice before 
we set up two themes. What teaches you a lot about 
people and time? Now I'm going back to the overall 
theme of what teaches you a lot about people. It's not 
just people's sense of time but their sense of personal 
timing. I'm using two things that sound alike but may 
not have any relation at all. Okay? The other thing 
that t eaches you so much about people is not just 

their sense of time but their sense of timing. Their 
personal rhythm. Now listen, look up here. Look up 
here, don't write notes. Oh, you can write notes, it's 
not important. I'm sorry, forgive. Merci beaucoup. 
(French).  

Audience: You have the music but not the words.  

Ross: That's fine. I only need to fake the music.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Well, if you want to speak French you must 
speak with your lips out here.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That's one of the nicest compliments, that's an 
excellent compliment to say I have the music and not 
the words is a profound compliment and I thank you 
for that. Everything in French sounds lascivious.  

Can you say my hovercraft is broken in French? I'm 
serious.  

Audience: You what? 

Ross: My hovercraft is broken.  

Audience: Hovercraft is this boat ...  

Ross: is broken. Yeah.  

Audience: Au France? 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: spoken in French 

Ross: hover craft 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: How do you say I will not buy this record. It is 
scratched? I'm serious.  

Audience: Really? 

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: spoken in French 

Ross: speaking in French 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: And German's more guttural in the throat. We 
were with Germans yesterday, Austrian girls, and they 
wouldn't sit down. I said, "Zit in ze zeat" and they 
both sat.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I said you have to give Germans orders, true? 
You were going, "Sit down, sit down, come one, stay 
with us, " you were pawing their hands. I went, "Zit in 

background image

 

71

ze zeat.” Okay. The other thing I think that teaches 
you is not just people's sense of time but their sense 
of personal timing. Their sense of personal rhythm. 
Okay? That's the transition. Are we out of tape? 

?: No 

Ross: We all right? 

?: We're excellent.  

Ross: Are we numbering these so we know where 
we're at? 

?- You're doing wonderful.  

Ross: Good. Okay. Their sense of personal rhythm. 
Listen to me, listen. There are all sorts of rhythms a 
person has. There's the rhythm of their breathing, 
there's they rhythm at which they speak, and then 
there's the very personal, very private, very intimate 
rhythm of in and out, back and forth, between being 
outside in the world talking to people and being 
inside in that place of fantasy, that place of daydream, 
that place where you keep your most exciting 
memories. I think you learn so much about people by 
learning, not just how they enter that place, but when 
they do, how they strike a balance between 
anticipation and compulsion.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Now what pattern am I going into? 

Audience: The blowjob.  

Ross: The blow job pattern. Okay? For those of you 
who don't know the blowjob pattern, we're going to 
do it tomorrow. So I want you to look at the overall, 
forget the content, look at overall thematic structure. 
I'm belaboring this because I want you to understand. 
I could whip through it and have you memorize it, but 
it wouldn't be the same. So, so the first part is the 
overall, overarching theme that surrounds everything 
is what teaches you about people or what enables 
you to learn some, what, what allows you to learn so 
much about people. Here's how you bring it up. 
You're over, you're having casual conversation over 
coffee. You go "Do you enjoy learning about 
people?" What is she going to say? "Fuck no, I'm a 
dillweed. Take me home.” 

Audience: Laughter Ross: "No, I enjoy making it an 
exploratory of my nostril up to the third digit. That's 
what I like to do. Of course she's going to say ... 
okay? So the, so that's the metatheme. But the first 
theme is people's sense of time. How time shifts and 
changes o f people. And by the way, to the extent that 
you, each and all of you, each of both of you, become 

insatiably curious about human process, to the extent 
that you genuinely are curious about this kind of 
stuff, is the extent that your patterning will become 
much more powerful. Because instead of being words 
you're just reciting, it has meaning for you. I want to 
encourage each and every one of you to become 
connoisseurs of human subjective internal experience. 
There's nothing more interesting to me than how 
human beings do things. When I had people up here 
and some of them weren't having the, as quick or as 
strong as response getting rid of the bad feelings, did 
I get angry at them? Did I? 

Audience: No 

Ross: Did I display any frustration? 

Audience: No 

Ross: Not really. I got curious. I had fun, I'm going to 
have, what was my attitude? I'm going to really fuck 
this person up. Right? 

Audience: Right.  

Ross: Cause I'm fascinated how people do things. I 
really want to know. Even when they annoy me. Like I 
remember talking to this girl who was an unbelievable 
flake. I hate flakes. One thing, if you ever want to do 
business with me, do exactly what you say you're 
going to do, as you say you're going to do it. Cause 
otherwise I won't be able to, I can't be bothered 
having to track you. It distracts from my focus having 
to see, "Well he hasn't done it yet. When is he going 
to do it? And you're out. And you don't get any 
chances. You're just out.” Do what you say you're 
going to do or tell me in advance why you won't be 
able to. Yes.  

Audience: Is the looking versus really seeing, is that 
part of this overarching thing? 

Ross: No, that's different, that's a different way of 
introducing. Okay? So listen. No, that's about 
differences. The theme is the difference between x and 
y. But you could say, "You know, I think you learn so 
much by looking at the difference between one thing 
and the other" if you wanted to bring that in. Okay? 
Good. But you're thinking in terms of themes. Themes 
are important. Themes will allow you to string 
patterns together to the extent that you begin to think 
in themes and really get interested in this. All right. 
Really get interested. I think, don't you think its 
fascinating how people work? I mean, there are five 
billion of them surrounding you. Yo u may as well 
figure out what's going on between their ears. 
Particularly if you want to get into their wallets or 
between their legs.

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Unless you carry a lot of firepower, and then 
you can do what you want, but then you, there are  
terrible consequences then. So anyway. Okay. So, we 
talk about people's sense of time. That's one theme. 
We, we describe all that. We give three examples - 
okay - all relating here and then we go to the next 
theme, which is people's sense of timing. Their 
personal rhythm. Now, how do we get there? We say, 
"The other thing I think that teaches you so much ...” 
so we're back here again. We temporarily revisit here. 
Then say "The other things that teaches you so much 
is people's sense of personal timing, their personal 
rhythm.” And then what are you going to do? You're 
going to give a description. I gave three examples. 
There's all sorts of rhythms. There's the rhythm with 
which you breathe, there's the rhythm with which you 
listen and then there's the very personal, very private, 
very intimate rhythm of in and out -I lean out a little 
bit - back and forth. Now what is she going to be 
thinking when you're talking this way? 

Audience: Sex 

Ross: Fucking, okay? But when you switch over, see 
I'm fucking, I'm kind of intruding a little bit, it's the 
equivalent of putting your hand on her leg, no I don't 
want to even do, even go that way with you, Okay? 
See how I stopped myself so quickly? It's equivalent 
of putting your hand on her leg right there and sliding 
it further and further up. And suddenly you take it 
away instead of going for the gold. Okay? So, it's the, 
then there's that very personal, very private, very 
intimate rhythm of in and out, back and forth, between 
being outside in the world talking to people and she's 
going to go "Oh" but the thought's still going to be 
there. Okay? And being inside in that place of fantasy 
and daydream. Okay? And then you go back to this 
theme. ”I think you learn so much about people by 
how they enter that place of fantasy and daydream 
and how they strike a balance between compulsion 
and anticipation.” Okay? So we keep going back to 
this theme. And then we go into the blowjob pattern. 
Do we all know the blowjob pattern? 

Audience: yes  

Ross: Some don't know it. Yes sir? Question ? 

Audience: Like when you're using this in a 
conversation ...  

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: When you're like plowing away with 
patterns ...  

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: What need is there for small talk, like give 
her a breather or just ...  

Ross: No, don't give her a breather, keep going. Okay. 
Come up here. Come up here. What's your name? 

Audience: Matt 

Ross: Matt what? 

Matt: Gives last name.  

Ross: Okay. So you and I are in a boxing match, okay. 
I'm pounding you in the face, pounding you in the 
body, pounding, pounding. I'm going to go, "Oh, I'll 
hit him a few more times the next round. I'm going to 
go sit in my comer.” No, you don't do that. As long as 
you've got the opening you keep pounding and 
pounding. Now they may interrupt you. If the 
interrupt it's okay. They're only going to correct you. 
It's like you've got your hand here, they go "No, 
there.” So just go ahead and sit down. Feed their 
words back to them. Do you get this structure? 
Advanced students, do you see the structure clearly? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Yes. And you want to keep coming, the reason 
I like this structure is it allows me to keep going back 
and saying, "The other thing where you learn so 
much is not just their sense of rhythm, the other thing 
that teaches you so much is when they enter that 
place of fantasy how they strike a balance between 
compulsion and anticipation.” Now, or those of you 
who haven't heard the blowjob pattern, here it comes. 
Okay? "Compulsion is when you just find yourself 
doing something without ever thinking about it, like, 
you ever just suddenly find yourself reaching for the 
refrigerator.” Now what am I doing? Compulsive 
version anticipation. That's an example of comparing 
two things that are similar but different. You 
understand'! I'm using that. ”And you ever just find 
yourself reaching for the refrigerator and before you 
know it, you're looking in the refrigerator going, 'What 
the hell and I doing? I'm not even hungry. Has 
anyone ever done that? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Universal experience. Okay? "But anticipation 
is when your mind anticipates a pleasure before it 
already arrives.” Not how many examples am I going 
to stack?  

Audience: Three 

Ross: Right. Why three? It just seems to work.

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Huh? More getting power.  

Audience: Would that be like authority shift where 
the, where the last _____ ? 

Ross: Yeah. I'm getting, I'm going to get them 
progressive so it's not anything to do with authority, 
but I'm getting them more intimate. So I say like, for 
example, "You ever come home from a really hot day, 
a rotten hard day at work, and before you even get 
home, you can already imagine dropping every stitch 
of clothing and climbing into that steaming hot bath 
or shower. Which do you like best?" Whatever she 
uses. ”And before you even get home, you can 
imagine that moment when you're standing there, the 
steam is hitting your body, and then you can imagine 
that heat working its way through every part of your 
body.” Now what are you telling her to do? Feel the 
heat ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: "And then there comes that actual moment of 
sliding in where you surrender to it completely. Or do 
you like chocolate? Oh yes, I love chocolate. Did you 
ever have a piece of chocolate and rather than eat it 
right away, you save it for yourself, you leave it at 
home and it's your reward for a hard day's work. And 
there comes that moment when you unwrap it and its 
like, you slowly undress this treat, and you hold it 
right in front of lips and you stop and you tease 
yourself with it. You imagine that first soft brush of 
the lips against it. That moment when you tease it, 
just touch the slightest tip of it against your tongue. 
Just that first molecule of sweetness and then it melts 
in your mouth and its like an explosion of pleasure in 
your mouth.” And often I'll go "It's like an orgasm.” 
They'll go, "Yes.” I'll go "You ever been really 
attracted to someone and you know there's an 
incredible attraction here. But you haven't acted on it 
yet. And then there comes that moment when you 
stop talking and you just look at each other. And you 
know something's about to happen. And you begin to 
anticipate that first wonderful electric kiss. You know 
that first soft brush of lips; it's so soft you don't even 
know if you're kissing yet. And then, it's like this jolt 
of pleasure and every bit of pleasure that you, that 
you'll experience when that relationship is enfolded 
into that first one amazing kiss. So I think what can 
happen is, the conscious mind can go down into the 
unconscious and come back up with all these 
thoughts and id eas and fantasies , and being very 
intellectual I used to think that my most important 
thoughts come from above me. But Debbie, now I 

know so many amazing thoughts come from below 
me.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Cause you're coming from that much more 
primitive place inside your mind.” Now, what does 
that open her up to? What did you just finish talking 
about? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Primitive places inside her mind, fantasies, 
daydreams. What could you then move on to talk 
about? You could say, "You know the thing about 
fantasies is sometimes a person is having fantasies 
and you don't even know it till all of a sudden they 
blurt something out unexpected. Like, about two 
weeks ago I was sitting with my neighbor, right in this 
place right here, and she looks at me and she says, 
'Can you imagine me going down on you all night 
long, exactly the way you like it'! And you were so 
hot, so turned on you knew you had to have me right 
here, right now?" See how you're building on it? And 
it all fits into a theme. Now you're transitioning to the 
theme of fantasies, cause that's what you just finished 
talking about. Do you see how all the themes can 
work together and lock in? So, if you want to do 
patterns in a sequence, think of the themes. And this 
is a good one. What teaches you about people, what 
allows you ... ? I think you really learn so much about 
people by learning how they x. And the other thing 
that's interesting about x when you learn so much, is 
how they y. And notice how they y but how they z. 
Cause when they z. You ever think about the 
difference z and a? You get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Now look at the understanding you have now 
and the understanding you had this morning. Think 
about the difference you had this morning, the 
understanding you had this morning and the 
understanding you have right now. I wonder if the 
understanding you have right now compared to the 
understanding you're going to have tomorrow is like 
the understanding you had this morning compared to 
the understanding you have now. Do you 
understand? 

Audience: Right 

Ross: Now? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Want to take a break? Five minute pee break. 
Five minutes.

BREAK 

Ross: People, realize I just gave you a pattern 
sequence you can call any woman you know on the 
phone and do. Any one of those combinations I 
showed you, you can call her on the phone and talk. 
It's the perfect sequence for a woman you already 
know. If You already know her, "Oh, I saw this show 
on the Discovery Channel" or "Have you ever 
thought about the difference between looking and 
really seeing" or "You know, I was thinking about.” 
Here's how you bring up the time one. You want to do 
this on the phone? "I was reading this book on 
quantum physics and they were saying how time is 
not just a linear thing but time exists simultaneously, 
that the past, present and future all exist right now. It 
got me thinking how you can learn so much about 
people by learning how their sense of time 
subjectively shifts and changes.” Then go right into 
the pattern. I've just given you things you can use on 
the phone tonight to test.  

Audience: Ross,  

Ross: What? 

Audience: What do you want to do more at first 

Ross: You can do this on ...  

Audience: _____  

Ross: Oh no you don't. Here's how you close on the 
phone. So she's panting heavy, breathing heavy, go 
"Well, I've got to go. The Three Stooges are on.” 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I'm serious. Go, "I'm sorry. South Park is on.” 
Yes.  

Audience: Using the crazy _____ method where you 
just dial up numbers randomly, can you use this 
method for a person you don't know? 

Ross: Yes, yes.  

Audience: It looks like it's a little hot, too, but you 
never know.  

Ross: What? 

Audience: You were saying 

Ross: I said you can do it in person but I'm saying, I'm 
saying, thank you, I'm saying if you want to test it 
tonight and you know someone's number, pick up the 
phone and call them. Call a voice mail message 
service.  

Audience: Question from audience.  

Ross: You can do that, too. But all I'm saying is I've 
given you a sequence where you can go set, one 
doorway to the next . You can use this on the phone; 
you can start tonight testing it if you want to. Do you 
understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Yes 

Audience: _____ . One thing with the patterns is 
these are eliciting states. One of the things I do with 
patterns is as I know a state's being elicited I'll also 
set an anchor there, too, so later on I can fire off that 
anchor cause if I'm telling a pattern and the woman's 
getting all aroused, you know, heck, that's a resource 
state.  

Ross: You're missing the point. Your voice becomes 
the anchor. I can call women up and just read from the 
phone book and they go gaga cause they're  

anchored into my voice. Cause my voice is what's led 
them throughout these things. Yes.  

Audience: You say when you throw in things like 
UMM just at the right time, you get ...  

Ross: UMMM 

Audience: a particular _____ anchor ...  

Ross: You go "UMMM, do like chocolate? UMMM.” 

Audience: So there'd be no advantage in the aesthetic 
anchor? 

Ross: You can do it, but if you're on the phone, how 
do you do that? Okay? We're talking about doing it 
on the phone. See? 

Audience: The next thing is she doesn't, she can do 
whatever she wants, but think that you don't know 
what she's doing. Laughter.  

Ross: Yeah. That's the other advantage. When you're 
on the phone, she's in the privacy of her own 
bedroom ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And I'll even add in little things. If she's on the 
phone, I'll say, "You know, sometimes you can't even 
put your finger on why you really feel all that.” 
Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: "You can't put your finger on the source of all 
that excitement. But when you do, UMMM.” What 
am I giving her a command to do? Does anyone not 
get it? 

Audiences: Responses from audience 

background image

 

75

Ross: Okay? So, the other thing about being on the 
phone is your, your mouth is right up to her ear, no 
one's watching, she can feel free to have all the 
responses she wants. And then when you're done, go 
"Well, I've gotta go. South Park's on.” Or whatever 
show's on, or "I gotta go, you know, someone's, I've 
gotta meet someone for coffee.” "Who? Who?" "Oh, 
never mind, I'll tell you about her tomorrow.” 

Audiences: Laughter.  

Ross: "Maybe, maybe I better wait until I'm rested Up. 
I'll talk to YOU in two days.” 

Audiences: Laughter. Response from audience.  

Ross: Give a woman a little bit of what she wants. 
then pull away and make her work for more. You See 
how it ties in? Never supplicate. Only ever structure 
Opportunities and, and, present challenges, offer 
challenges. Now, the thing about patterns is people 
will say, "How do I know where to start?" Start 
anywhere. If you get flexible enough you can start 
from any one pattern and go to any other using the 
structure I just gave you. I just gave you a crash 
Course on conversational flexibility. Someone, please 
be quiet if you heard this story before. , Someone said 
to me, "You know, Ross. You would have been so 
proud of me. I went to this bar and I was talking to 
this woman and she looked at me and said, 'You 
know, you got me so hot by the way you speak, all I 
would need right now to go home with you and bang 
your headlights out and give you the best fucking of 
your life is one more beer. ’" And he said, “Ross, you 
would have been so proud of me. I went into my own 
version of the blow job pattern, talking about a beer. I 
found out wh at her favorite was, Amsdel Light, and 
said 'Do you ever have that Amsdel Light, take it out 
of the fridge and it's sweating, like someone who's 
stepping out of the shower and beads of sweat and 
the beads of water are slowly evaporating. And then 
you open it up and the head begins to foam up. You 
pour the golden liquid into the bottle. You imagine it 
sliding down your throat. You want to lick the head a 
little bit, suck down all the foam. ' And by the time I 
finished, I looked up, she was gone. Ross, what 
should I have said?" "Well, she looked at you and 
said all she needed was one more beer to go home 
and bang your headlights out, you know what the 
pattern you should have done was?" He said, 
"What?" I said, "Bartender.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Is that we h ad a line of people up here and 
you'll notice that what happened is that some of them 
were still having some shyness left over. And rather 

than fake it and go, "Yes, Ross. Hallelujah, I'm cured" 
and view me as some guru who they have to obey, 
they were honest in their response and go no, and 
they said, "No, I still have some of the shyness.” So I 
was able to work with them. And that shows me, 
rather than viewing me as some guru you have to 
obey, you view me as a teacher who's generally 
concerned with you getting the material. So again, 
throughout the rest of the weekend, if you're having a 
challenge, you don't understand something, this is 
the magical thing. You raise your hand and we'll help 
you out. Okay? 

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: What I want to start out doing this morning is, 
yesterday someone was still a little bit lost about what 
we did at the end of the day. So I want to go through 
it again very rapidly so you get it. It's very important. 
As I said, there are three big chunks to speed 
seduction. Okay? And one of the big chunks is the 
conversational frameworks. Conversational 
frameworks - what is the purpose of a conversational 
framework? Remember one of the big questions to ask 
yourself in getting this material is "What is the 
purpose of this?" "What is it  designed to do?" Well, 
the purpose of a conversational framework is to, 
number one, let You bring up the topic in a normal, 
ordinary-sounding conversation. The second 
purpose of conversational framework is to allow you 
to flow from one pattern to the next . How many 
people here are familiar with Dr. Laturrett? Who's seen 
Dr. Laturrett do this thing? I mean, he hits a lot very 
rapidly, okay? Flow hitting. Well, I sort of compare it 
to flow hitting in a fight. You want to be able to hit 
more than once okay? So, how many people here 
have ever tried patterns and they ran out of things to 
say after the first pattern? It happened to me when I 
really only experimenting, okay? That's because you 
don't know where to go next. Well, conversational 
frameworks allow you to always know where to go 
next. Now, there's some major pieces to 
conversational frameworks. The first piece you really 
want to get is the overall theme. Remember when the 
big overall theme we were doing the other day is how 
you learn about people. Now, when you pick a 
conversational framework, when you pick an overall 
theme, you want to pick something that's really broad. 
Why don't you want to pick the exact composition of 
phonograph needles from 1963? 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I think you learn so much about the exact 
phonograph - I mean, because it doesn't really leave 
you a lot to go. But, what teaches you about people, 

background image

 

76

how you learned a lot about people? I mean, that's 
such a broad topic you could go anywhere with it. All 
right? So, you don't want to paint yourself into a 
comer. It's like, the only punch you have in the fight 
is, you know, your arms stuck under your leg, 
hopping up and down on one foot. Okay? You want 
to give yourself a lot of space. Here's the metaphor I 
use. I like boxing. I'm a fight fan. I enjoy boxing. The 
metaphor I use is, you don't want to start out boxing 
from a comer, okay? What I do is I start out with a 
broad topic, so I'm in the center of the ring with the 
person. Here's the metaphor I like to use. So, the first 
few, the first round, what do boxers do? Do they come 
out slugging with everything they've got the first 
round? 

Audience: They feel each other out.  

Ross: Once in a while. But usually what they do is 
they're feeling the opponent out. They're getting a 
sense of what the person's rhythm is, where they're 
strong, where they're off balance. They're dancing 
around the first round. Okay? So, I kind of view it as if 
we're in the center of the ring and the first pattern I 
do, I'm like beginning to get their rhythm. I'm starting 
to like get a few shots in, they're dropping their arms a 
little bit. Okay? The second pattern I'm shoving them 
more towards the comer. Okay? And now I really got, 
I got, now, by the third pattern they're in the comer. 
You ever see a good boxer who just gives body 
shots? This is a hostile metaphor. I don't mean it's like 
fighting, but this is just one metaphor I'm using to get 
your understanding, cut the ring off conversationally. 
Conversationally, I want to cut the ring off on 
someone. Do you know what it means in boxing to cut 
the ring off of someone? 

Audience: There's nowhere for them to go.  

Ross: Nowhere for them to go. They can't dance away 
from you. You've got them in a comer. Okay? Well, a 
good boxer will throw a lot of body shot and you're 
thinking, "Why is he throwing body shots? You're 
not going to knock the guy out.” Well, what 
happens? What happens to a fighter who's been hit a 
lot to the body? 

Audience: Responses  

Ross: They drop their arms and then, boom, they're 
out of there, they're gone. So, conversationally, I want 
something that let's me to move, that allows me to 
move around and gradually cut the ring off on the 
person. Okay? So, how you learn a lot about people is 
a good overall topic. Okay? Why? Because it allows 
you to go to this and here's the other thing that 
teaches you about people.  

Audience: Ross, are you saying that's the way to 
open a conversation? 

Ross: Yes. It's a good, it's not only a good way to 
open a conversation, but it's a good way to go, it's a 
good thing to revisit to introduce any other topic. 
”And here's something else that teaches you a lot 
about people" or "Here's something else where you 
learn a lot about people. And not only do you learn a 
lot about people that way, but here's another way you 
learn about people.” So, write these phrases down. 
These are transition phrases. ”And here's something 
else that teaches you a lot about other people.” At 
the top of your paper write "Transition Phrases.” And 
underneath transition phrases write "And here's 
something else where, here's another way you learn a 
lot about people.” Transition. ”Here's another way 
you learn about people.” You can say it like this, 
"And the other thing that teaches you a lot about 
people is ...” Or you could say "Not only do you learn 
a lot about people by learning how they x, " which is 
what you just talked about, "but also how they y.” 
"Not only do you learn about, a lot about people by 
learning how time passes for them subjectively, but 
also about, but also their personal timing, their 
personal rhythms.”  

Audience: Would you 

Ross: Sure.  

Audience: Another way you learn a lot about people 
is to what? 

Ross: Not only do you learn about people from this, 
this being whatever you just talked about, but the 
other thing that teaches you a lot about people is ... 
]'his is a great topic because, "Who's going to say 
'No, I don't want to learn about people?’" And 
second, it implies that you're teaching them 
something, which means you're a great person, which 
through the law of reciprocity means they owe you 
something. Now, there's a difference between being a 
teacher and being someone you can learn from. Major 
Mark, you want to jump in here briefly and talk about 
that difference? 

Yates: This is the end of Side 7 of the Basic Speed 
Seduction Home Study Course by Ross Jeffries 

Tape 4 – Side 2 

 

Yates: This is Side 8 of the Ross Jeffries Basic Speed 
Seduction Home Study Course

77

Ross: When, the difference between someone who's a 
teacher and someone you learn from? 

Major Mark: Well, the biggest difference is that we're 
culturally condition to understand or believe that 
trainers or teachers are an "other.” Okay? They're 
someone above you, they're someone Outside your 
realm of experience, and they're not someone you're 
supposed to fuck. Okay? Or to allow to fuck you. So, 
when you come into the role as a teacher or a trainer, 
in fact, you have set yourself in a lose/lose kind of 
situation. Okay? If instead you are someone that they 
can learn from, then you're in a position of being 
fascinating, okay? You can exert a mesmerizing 
influence, okay? And because you are someone that 
can learn from, it's not longer an encapsulated lesson 
or a teaching, but rather it's a process. The more 
they're around you, the more that they are taking you 
into themselves, the better they feel, the larger their 
life becomes.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Exactly. Yeah, I like it. And when you have a 
new understanding coming inside you that grows and 
grows, you can conceive of something new and 
different. No, you don't want to say that.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Growing inside you day by day.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Absolutely correct. Thank you Major. Yes,  

Audience: So how would one distinguish one's 
behavior between being a teacher and being someone 
to learn from? What would one do to that would make 
that difference? 

Major Mark: Okay. _____ how you structure your 
approach to the person. Okay? If you are coming 
across as preaching, for example, or if you have this 
attitude yourself that you are some kind of hot shit, I 
understand more than you kind of person, then you're 
going to impart a lesson to that person, to your 
subject, to the woman. Okay? And this, they pick up 
on this. Okay? I used to think that women had 
antenna that men don't have, okay, because they were 
always picking up on things, additional messages, 
that I perhaps didn't intend or was kind of horrified 
that it had gotten out. Okay? I later come to 
understand that we all have the same antenna, it's just 
that men switch it off most of the time. During the 
early parts of our life it wasn't valued and so we didn't 
practice it so much. If instead you approach the 
interaction with the understanding and the belief that 

"Oh, here's one part of our life where I may 
understand something a little more fully than you, 
here, I can help you along.” Okay? It's like imagine the 
path of life being full of all kinds of twists and turns 
and occasionally ...  

Ross: I'm a turn, he's a twist.  

Major Mark: Okay. I just came back from 5 days at 
Disneyland, so I'm real familiar with things like 
standing in line fucking forever. Okay? You know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: That's right. You don't need to take these 
things deep inside. Just don't pay any attention, it'll 
come to you later.  

Ross: That's brilliant. You know, I talk about your 
trips, you know I went to Disneyland and we were 
standing inline fucking forever.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: See? I open my mouth and these things 
come out.  

Ross: I know. And you know, we were arguing over 
which attraction we liked the best and I saw this ride. 
Did you ever look at a ride and you know, you got to 
jump on this? And it looks so incredible you want to 
ride it multiple times, you want to get off and get on, 
get off, get on, anyway.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: As we were waiting in line, go ahead. I rip off ... 
We're a great team, aren't we? 

Major Mark: So? 

Ross: Right Ed? Right Stan.  

Major Mark: As you're standing in line, you have this 
phenomenon where you'll be right across from 
someone and then the line moves on, okay, and then 
a few minutes later your paths cross again. Okay? 
And sometimes when they start splitting you into 
multiple lines heading the same direction, you're never 
really sure of who's ahead or who's behind, just know 
the relative position changes? Okay? Think about 
that as a mindset when you're talking to someone who 
doesn't currently understand what you understand. 
At that point and time, you may be a little bit ahead. It 
costs you nothing to lead them to a better, more full 
understanding of what's going on because you know 
that a little bit farther down the line you're going to be 
learning something from her as well. Okay? You're not 
teaching, you're sharing. What is the most interesting 
and natural thing for her to do once you have shared 

background image

 

78

with her? The principle of reciprocity comes into 
affect. She will want to share something with you. 
Now, is there anything she might have or understand 
that you might find of value? Perhaps, yes? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: How to swallow a banana sideways? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Hand her a cherry stem and say, "Do 
you, do you do anything with this?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Tie a knot in it with her tongue.  

Major Mark: That's right. Yeah.  

Ross: Some people can do that.  

Audience: Brooke Shields.  

Major Mark: Brook Shields say that? 

Audience: She did that on the Jay Leno show.  

Major Mark: Brook Shields doing that, I mean, that 
would probably send me right into a trance ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: It checks the position, you know.  

Ross: But there's, there's another distinction between 
a teacher and specifically us, is we're not, again, we're 
not, when we do these patterns, we're not trying to 
convey to her an intellectual understanding. What are 
we attempting to do? 

Audience: Get a result.  

Ross: Get a result, to lead her into a certain state or 
states of mind. So one of the other distinctions is 
teachers traditionally are there to convey intellectual 
understanding or to help you memorize something 
you can regurgitate on a piece of paper and that's, 
that's not our intent at all. It's not what we're about. 
So let me get back to this. We have a little problem 
with his microphone. That's all right, okay. Transition 
phrases. Now there are other ways to do transition 
phrases, no matter what topic you start with. You can 
start with any topic and a good transition phrase "It's 
just like when" or "it's just like.” So I'm talking about 
rhino testicles, okay? And the real interesting thing 
about rhino testicles is they're so huge and they look 
so tough and yet they're so sensitive.” "It's just like 
when you meet someone ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "and on the surface they seem one way, but as 

you draw closer and you really begin to feel that 
sense of a connection, that click right there, that 
allows you to stop and look past the surface, see 
something deeper, something you want to take inside 
and allow to really resonate with who you truly are 
and the deepest levels, deep inside your soul.” "It's 
the kind of thing that can cause a person t come over 
and over and over again to one conclusion.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "That there's a real opportunity here. And the 
really interesting thing about opportunities is this.” 
Okay? Or, "The other interesting this about 
opportunities is this, " so here's another transition 
phrase. ”And the other interesting things, " See, it 
just seems to flow me like, I don't know, it flows, but 
only cause I understand the transitions. And one, one 
drill you guys can do, you folks at home can do, is to 
take any topic and relate it to any other topic no 
matter how ridiculous by using these transitional 
phrases. And here's the other thing about transitional 
phrases. ”It's just like, you know, you ever been 
waking up and then rather than wake up all the way 
you just begin to fall right back down to sleep and 
you go into that state betwe en a dream and between 
being awake? And in that state you begin to visualize 
wild amazing things. You hear things very clearly, you 
see things, you imagine body sensations. The 
interesting thing to me about being able to enter that 
state, well, its just like when you go on vacation and 
you leave behind the part of you that has all the rules, 
all the roles and instead you step into that part that 
has wild desires, the fantasies, ideas. I mean, you ever 
just find yourself thing about certain Subjects? The 
more you think about that subject, the more the desire 
to act on it, just begins to come into play. Well, you 
know, I think you learn so much about people by 
learning how they connect to that part of 
themselves.” See where I'm going? I'm using 
transition phrases left and right. You have a question 
with this.  

Audience: Yes. Basically, you just went through like 
three or four ...  

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: parts just by introducing ...  

Ross: Yes. Yes. Yes. You get a sense of real flexibility 
with this and it begins to make you very Powerful in 
your conversation. Okay? Now understand, this is a 
part of it, another part which we're going to be dealing 
with today is noticing responses and getting rapport 
with people. I'm going to show you guys, now, I'm 
going to show y ou guys some exercises where you

can sort of look at the person, briefly step inside 
them, get a sense of what their emotional state is like, 
and decide how or if you're going to approach. Okay? 
Do you understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So this is very important. The other thing I want 
you to think about, to begin to think about in terms 
of, is to think in terms of, well, let me put it to you this 
way. As I said the other day, women tend to 
compartmentalize sexual thoughts. There are certain 
themes they are going to let you get into that 
compartment. And I know when you guys think of the 
compartment you want to get into ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You're thinking about the wrong thing, Because 
that's not where you put your attention. Okay? So 
there's certain themes, even if you didn't know any of 
the embedded commands, any of the patterns and 
language, by virtue of being able to understand and 
intelligently discuss those themes, you're going to get 
a lot further. Okay? Now what are some of those 
themes? Dryrot, fungus ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Trans Ams and IROCs. Unlikely, okay? 

Audience: WWF 

Ross: WWF. Yeah, the World Wrestling Federation.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: I remember this girl. I could not crack her but as 
soon as I started talking about Andre the Giant, that 
was it. I said, "You know, Andre the Giant ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: For those of you at home, I'm pointing at my 
crotch. ”Andre the Giant, man, he was big. He was so 
big that couldn't fit him in that little ring.” 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Don't try this at home. No. There's certain, 
there's certain themes, you know, rather than me give 
it away, I want you to think it, I'm not going to give 
you the language. I want you to think about these 
themes and really begin to explore it for yourself 
because there are levels of understanding this. I could 
spoon feed you. And through the weekend I have 
been and will continue to spoonfeed you in some 
respects, but to really encourage you to, to get his, I 
want you to think about what it means to, t o, what 
these themes are all about, what are these themes, 
write little essays, you know. Mark and I will grade 

them and then we'll laugh at you, ha ha ha ha ha. 
We're not letting this person back in the seminar.  

Major Mark: We'll laugh in a compassionate manner.  

Ross: Yeah, right. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Where like someone trips and breaks their nose. We, 
you know what, we don't always take people's money, 
we kick people out and give them their money back. 
We've had some customers that we said  "We're not 
doing business with you, you're off the list. Here's a 
refund, get out of here.” 

Audience: For bad ass ass? 

Ross: No, not for bad ass ass.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'll just have my mom come up, call up and bitch 
you out, you know? How do you spell that word? 

Audience: Laughter. What did you kick them out for? 

Ross: If I got a Nobel Prize, my mom would go, "They 
misspelled Nobel.” No, not really. Oh, bad attitude, 
you know, like, "Well you have to show us. I don't 
believe this. You show me now.” And we showed 
them the door or, you know, if they call up on the 
phone and go, "Well I think this is fraud, you better 
show ...” Goodbye, I don't need you. And I've also 
had people doing consults, forgive me, one second, 
I've had people doing consults on the phone and 
they're not willing to do the work. I'll go, "Forget it. 
You're not willing to do the work, you're a lazy ass, 
send it back, I don't want your money if you re not 
going to get the results. Send back and I'll give you a 
refund.” You know? 

Audience-. How would you write the essay? How 
would you ...  

Ross: Well, I'll let's take, pick a theme. How about 
fantasies? I'll give you some hints about fantasy. 
Fantasies. Now, right there, that's a lot more 
interesting than, than double blind she variable 
studies on mice urine.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's more, it's got more ... I learned something 
from comedy writing. I wasn't a very good comedy 
writer, but I did learn to develop what, it's funny. The 
guy who taught me comedy writing, Danny Simon, 
Nell Simon's brother, he said, "When you write 
comedy, you learn to develop a sense of smell he 
actually had an olfactory sense. He would smell if a 
subject was funny. He said, "That smells funny.” 
Okay. You learn to develop sort of a sense of smell 
about what topics have a lot of potential. I don't want

to get too ...  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: And I don't, ha ha, I don't want to get too far 
into this, cause ...  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: I don't want to get too far into this because this 
is a basic seminar and this is a fairly advanced topic. 
We're just to touch on it, to touch on it briefly, cause 
some things ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Somethings you just want to touch on lightly, 
skim the surface, and then go back.  

Audience: Laughter and response from audience 

Ross: Yeah, yeah, well ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Well, if you don't, hey, if you want to blow this 
opportunity, then fine.  

Audience: Not on your life.  

Ross: Yeah. I would rather grab a hold of this 
opportunity, y ou know, expand it, make it bigger, you 
know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That it in a new direction.  

Audience: And see what can come up.  

Major Mark: Well, you know, some people reach out 
for it naturally, and other people, you've just got to 
feed it to them.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: But don't ...  

Major Mark: You're the expert.  

Ross: You can reject it now, but you'll get it in the 
end.  

Audience: Laughter Major Mark: Some fantasies ...  

Ross: Aaahhh ... All right. But fantasies, let's think 
about this. Let's see what we can spin or riff off of 
this. Just if we have different little pieces floating out 
here, floating out there. You know what? Fantasies. 
How about, well, let me, let do this this chronic, a little 
more . To stimulate your idea centers. Are fantasies 
things that we have complete control over?  

Audience: No.  

Ross: What does that imply? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Who said that? 

Audience: Said what? 

Ross: Say it again. What does it imply? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Subconscious, okay. They're automatic. What 
else about fantasies? 

Audience: They're fun, responses from audience.  

Ross: They're fun. That's true. Well it depends on ... If 
you're Stephen King, they're not.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It would be fun to do the Stephen King pattern, 
to take the part of someone's mind where they have 
their sexual fantasies and put Stephen King in there.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: You could say it allows everybody their 
own individual roles as opposed to force of evil to 
live in the real world or ...  

Ross: Ooohh, say that again. Say that out loud. 
Louder.  

Audience: It allows individuals to be in their own 
world, because there's only one real world, and we all 
have to live in it, but for a fantasy, create our own 
world, and live ... Ross: Okay. Now listen to what he 
said. That's ripe with possibility. I mean that is 
pregnant with ... Okay? Allows you to be in your own 
world versus the real world. What does that imply? 

Audience: Anything goes, everything's possible ...  

Ross: Different places in the mind, that's right. That's, 
that's, hmmm, boy that smells like a good one to me. 
What do you think? Different places in the mind, 
okay? How about the fact that people can travel back 
and forth between worlds? Yes.  

Audience: It's also the origin of every invention that 
was ever made.  

Ross: That's true. It's, it's, it has an origin of 
inventiveness.  

Audience: Say what, origin ...  

Ross: Well that, that, people tend to come up with 
new ideas from special place of fantasy not the place 
of the real world. Yes.  

Audience: I'd say also fantasies develop as the 

background image

 

81

individual develops more experience, as the person 
has widespread or ...  

Ross: That's true. But you want to be careful with 
languaging like widespread.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It could be a command for people to get fat. No, 
...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I really have matured, haven't I? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: and go for it.  

Ross: No, uh uh.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I got control here, 
uh, uh, ain't gonna happen. And that's the most 
important thing about seducing women.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: How we think. Is that a great insight, what do 
you think? 

Audience: Applause, laughter, cheering, responses 
from audience.  

Ross: Can I borrow your pattern honey? And if you 
don't get it, then you're dead meat.  

Audience: Ow, ooohhh.  

Ross: All right. Just kidding. So, these are, think 
about this.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Sshhh. Think about this. They're  automatic, 
how about this? How about sometimes they take on a 
life of their own? You ever had fantasies take on a life 
of their own? I want you guys to ask the question, 
okay, granted that fantasies take on a life of their own, 
what is the structure of that? If I had to describe that 
experience, how would I describe it? What happens 
on the inside when fantasies take on a life of their 
own? Where does that happen? Write this down. 
Where does it happen, how quickly does it happen, 
how intensely does it happen, when does in happen? 
These are the things I talk about when I describe 
something. How does it happen, when does it 
happen, how quickly, how intensely, what is it that 
triggers it? 

Audience: The perspective you bring to it.  

Ross: The perspective you bring to it. This is great, 

this is really specific. This is, this is gold coin guys. 
What does it lead to next? Okay? When you want to 
give a description of anything, ask yourself these 
questions and allow those questions to generate the 
descriptions. Let's try this. So let's say someone is 
having sexual fantasies. If you were going to describe 
it by answering these questions, what descriptions 
would you come up with? Yeah, answer that question. 
You're lying there on a bed of nails with a flame-
thrower up your ass. Is that how it happens? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Answer that question. Where does it happen? 
Use your words and tell me, where does it happen? 
Major Mark: Think back. Have you ever had a sexual 
fantasy in you life? And as you have it, where were 
you? Not where were you physically, but what was 
going on ...  

Ross: No. I want to know where he was physically.  

Major Mark: Oh. Okay.  

Ross: I would say, start by saying I, I was ... where? 

Audience: I was laying in bed ...  

Ross: Good. Good. That's so you're laying there in 
bed and we don't want to get into this because it's 
getting kind of kinky, but here's my point. This is how 
you build patterns for yourself By listing these 
questions and then by answering them as if you were 
describing it to a third party. You get it? 

Audience: Uh hmmm. How would or what happens 
next ...  

Ross: How intensely ...  

Audience: Would you give an example of that? 

?: I told her or I told them or ...  

Ross: You know Debbie, it's so interesting I think, 
you know, when you have fa ntasies with someone, 
it's like when you go home, you're lying there in bed, 
you find that place in your mind where you think your 
most exciting thoughts, where you keep you amazing 
memories. And then you begin to picture this person 
in you mind. Okay? And the more that happens the 
more you begin to imagine their touch, you hear their 
voice. And then its like anything in your environment 
triggers it, like whenever you step into the shower? 
Remember what triggers it in the environment. You 
can put that down. What is it that triggers it in the 
environment? These are examples of the kind of 
questions you want to ask yourself in order to 
construct your own pattern and language. You're 
going to be using this. You'll be using this cause, to 

background image

 

82

write new patterns. I'm telling you how I think, I'm 
lifting up my dress, going look. Anything you care to 
add to that Major Mark? 

Major Mark: The more evocative your language is, 
even if you're thinking it to yourself, the more 
evocative your language is, the more powerful the 
descriptions, the more real the fantasy becomes and 
when you're talking to a woman you want to lead her 
to a new understanding or a new experience, you 
want to make the fantasy as strong a reality as you 
can. Get it? It must become real to be real. Okay? 
There is a point, there's a, where you cross over that 
dividing line between fantasy and reality and the 
great truth, anchoring truth, is that all realities begin 
as fantasies. Okay? 

?: They didn't even hear it. They didn't even hear it.  

?: Booo 

Ross: You see, when Mark says something like that 
and I hear a pattern, I like have detectors. I go dong 
dong dong, did you see me guys. He said, "There's a 
point where fantasy crosses over and becomes what 
was exactly was the languaging you said? 

Major Mark: That's it.  

Ross: There a line you cross ...  

Audience: Fine line 

Ross: There's a fine line that you cross where a 
fantasy becomes reality. Ooohhh, did you hear that? 
That's a difference between a woman just thinking 
about banging you and jumping your bones. Did  you 
hear that? That's a pattern. That's the subject matter 
for an incredible pattern. He just drops it and you 
don't even hear it, but I'm going dong, dong, dong ...  

Audience: _____ reality.  

Major Mark: It's a reality. You say the one reality that 
we all share, now I could easily differ with you on that 
one. Okay? But the thing is, you start there, then you 
start moving to a conversation about fantasy, and 
then the words imply that you want her to start 
thinking about reality but the process drives her 
deeper into a richer, more evocative fantasy.  

Ross: Right. There's an, there's a big structure here. 
Let this, this is great. This is where Mark and I do 
gold together and you won't get this anywhere else in 
the world. Listen, we're taping it. Listen. You start, it's 
sort of a pace and lead. You start with one, with one 
thing which is she's in one state and then by talking 
about another state you bring her to the line between 
them and you get her to cross over. Think about it. 

It's one thing to talk about fantasy, it's another thing 
to talk about reality. But when you talk about the 
moment in time, the point where you cross over from 
fantasy into reality, he didn't say from reality into 
fantasy, he said from fantasy into reality, implying 
that you're going t o act on the fantasy that you're 
having. You understand? This is something Mark 
said once to me. I was stuck with something, 
remember? I was sitting there going, you know I sat 
there on my vacation and I couldn't figure this out. 
And you said, you quoted a famous figure from 
history who we will not mention, cause we don't want 
those neuro associations with us. But you said, "Try 
asking this question Ross. Saying what is it that 
compels us to do what we do? What is it that causes 
us to take action.” And I riffed on it. I said, "Yes, what 
is it that takes something that just one moment before 
was a fantasy and the next moment becomes our 
living, breathing, pulsating, energized reality? 
Something that absorbs and lifts us into another You 
understand? 

Major Mark: Absolutely.  

Ross: Yeah. And so I, this, this is so good. The point 
where you cross the dividing line between fantasy 
and reality. So one way to riff on the topic is to take 
something that's different from that and then ... Yes? 
You had a question? 

Audience: Yeah. I'm sorry. It just reminds me so much 
of why people are so fascinated with Disney movies, 
adults ...  

Ross: Are we getting him? 

Audience: Because it's a cartoon on the surface and it 
seems like it should be for kids, but the dialogue is 
written so colorfully and so distinctly that adults are 
able to get into it as well. So, while it seems like 
childhood fantasy, it may be geared towards children, 
it becomes an adult's reality. So therefore, they're into 
it and they sell of these.  

Ross: Now listen, listen. Very bright man. Cause what 
did I say yesterday? That the subconscious, the 
unconscious recognizes structures. ”Oh it seems 
harmless cause it's only a cartoon, so it's okay to do 
it.” If they made a movie with real people, not only 
would it be too expensive, but the theme would be 
way too controversial to touch it. You understand? 
So in the sense you're like Disney, you're creating 
these structure where it's okay for her to explore 
themes and topics that she normally would never do 
with anyone else. You get it? And there's something 
else, The very fact that she is exploring this with you 
makes her really think this must be the, someone very 

background image

 

83

special. She doesn't realize she's exploring it with you 
cause you've structured her to do that. Do you 
understand? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: This is the power of using the proper structure 
in you communication. Does everyone, I know there's 
at least one person here who doesn't understand the 
distinction about structure. But he gave a very good 
example. Now you know, Jonathan Swift was very 
good at that. He would take a political point and he'd 
put in into a fantasy tale. Gulliver's Travels was all a 
political satire. You're a comedy writer, you know 
about this kind of stuff.  

?: Modest proposal?  

Ross: Right 

?: Modes t proposal.  

Ross: Okay. Hang on.  

?: The modest proposal's on Politically Incorrect, 
where we would take a subject, satirize it and say, you 
know, for example, a good solution to get people to 
ride the subway is to make it a ride. That's the kind of 
thing that Jonathan Swift would propose.  

?: You don't want to put a loop in the subway.  

Ross: Or, or take Animal Farm, the George Orwell 
story, Animal Farm. He wrote a fictional tale of 
animals who took over a farm but it was really about 
totalitarianism and the dictatorial mindset. Because he 
told it as a children's tale, he was able to get away 
with it.  

Audience: It's true. A lot of times the different animals 
represent different races. But if you had different 
races, people would get very offended.  

Ross: Right, exactly, exactly, exactly.  

Audience: A bunny rabbit and a bear ...  

Ross: Yeah, exactly right. Okay.  

?: Also, to take the Disney step one point further is 
even The Simpson's, they gave you, which is far more 
subversive than anything Disney 

Ross: I love Simpson's 

?: _____ subversive TV show in history to television 
because they have this lovable kid and they're 
hammering home themes like guns are bad and 
nuclear power is ...  

Ross: Guns are good, by the way. Guns are good, so 
get out of here.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: In the hands of the right woman, guns are 
good. Right.  

?: But for example, Homer goes into, Homer goes into 
the gun shop on a recent episode and they, and he's 
pissed off and he needs a gun. And the guy said 
there's a seven-day waiting period. And Homer goes 
but I want my gun now, but I'm mad now.  

Ross & Audience: laughter 

?: And the guy goes I'm sorry, sir. You have to wait 
seven days. And Homer goes, uhhh, if I had my gun, 
I'd shoot you.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, I'm pro-guns, so we're going, we're going to 
eliminate that. I'm pro-choice and I'm just prochoice so 
one choice is to own a gun.  

Major Mark: Well, people don't understand. It's not 
the bullet that kills you, it's the hole.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Ohhh, Mark. We're getting racy here. So 
anyway, let me get back to this. But you see, but you 
see what can grow, do you see what can grow out of 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Proper discussion of fantasy. Okay? Are you 
getting this? You're not looking very happy, you're 
looking like, you get it? Okay. So, I like that, this 
notion of a dividing line, cause what else does the 
dividing line imply? It means you're standing right on 
the edge. You can't sit there any more on your ass, 
you have to go one way or the other. That's another 
topic, okay? He was talking about the dividing line 
between fantasy becoming reality, but how about the 
topic of dividing lines in and of itself? That's an 
interesting topic, isn't it? "You know, I was thinking 
about Debbie? I was thinking about how much of our 
lives is determined by what I call dividing lines. The 
line between one thing and the very moment, 
transitioning into another thing. Like the line between 
hesitation and going for it.” Okay? This is how you 
develop themes. This is how you get good at this 
stuff. We'll spoonfeed you later in the weekend, but 
right now, we really want to open up you 
consciousness to learn to think. Now, stop a minute. 
Compare this kind of discussion and this kind of 
thinking, compare this kind of discussion and this 
kind of thinking with what the average frustrated 
chump does before he goes out on a date. What is he 
thinking?

Audience: What am I going wear.  

Ross: What I'm going to wear 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Yeah, I hope I look nice, I hope I get some, 
when do I go for it,  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: How much should I spend tonight,  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Does she have a sister,  

Audience: Got to go to the ATM 

Ross: What? 

Audience: Does Spanish Fly really work? 

Ross: Does it? 

Audience: Responses and laughter 

Ross: Will that, will the makeup hide the chancre? 
You know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? 

Audience: What are rubies? 

Ross: What are rubies.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Ooohhh, he's a bad boy. I don't know if we 
want him in here any more. Well, he's working on a 
screenplay. Yes, Dr. Kay.  

Dr. Kay: We're talking about 

Ross: Yeah, topic, theme. Yeah, uh hmmn, sure. Okay, 
but see, a topic, a topic usually implies singularity. 
Okay. It's a thing that you talk about, okay. A theme 
is a direction. Right? A theme you can riff off 
constantly. Okay? I want to return to an earlier 
question. Yes, the fellow in the back wanted to know 
what happens if, how you keep track of where you're 
going. As you go into trance yourself, okay, as you 
lead her into exciting new places, a possibility, how 
you keep track of where you're going. Okay? Now, 
you ought to know better than to ask that question, 
cause in Hawaii I gave you the very specific example 
of what I started doing this, I wanted, I wanted to 
make sure I was tracking my ideal outcome and to 
insure that the outcome I was going for was, in fact, 
going to get me what I wanted. So, I would 
hallucinate. Everybody know what a really nice TV 
looks like? The clarity of picture, that crisp picture? 

Okay? I would imagine right over her left shoulder 
that I saw a monitor and on that monitor I would 
display what it was I wanted as my outcome. Now, 
being the crass individual that I am, okay, I would 
often visualize her blowing me on this monitor. Okay? 
And the amazing thing is that as I did this over and 
over, of course I'd start out with these highly 
idealized, you know, stolen images from some porn 
film or something like that, okay. But the idea is to 
imagine her doing it. And much to my surprise, I 
would find out that I'd walk up, I'd introduce myself to 
some fine-looking woman, start talking, and I'd realize 
she was giving me this very awkward blowjob over 
her left shoulder. And I'm thinking well she's not any 
good, I don't want to talk to her.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay, so I excuse myself and go on. But that's 
one of the ways, you have to keep an out, an outcome 
in mind so that no matter what happens, no matter 
which way the conversation goes, how she reacts to 
the theme, whether you need to switch to another 
theme, no matter what happens, you want to keep that 
outcome in mind. Okay? Because that's where you 
want to go. The whole purpose of your life is getting 
to where you want to go. Right? Say yes.  

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Now, the second thing you can do is to trust 
the teaching. Okay? Trust the technology. The reason 
that we do things like conversational framework is 
you no longer have to know where you're going. 
Okay? So long as you understand transition phrases, 
so long as you understand you’ll have a wide variety 
of possible themes you can play with, and so long as 
you trust the fact that you're playing, you're having 
fun, you're discovering something about her and 
discovering something about yourself and the way 
that you respond to her, is you have a clear idea of 
where outcome is or what your outcome is, it doesn't 
really matter how you loop around in between. 
Because you're going to get there, you're going to get 
your outcome. That's the whole point. So, there are 
ways to keep track of where you're going at same 
time. It's not all that important to keep track and what 
happens next. Frank? 

Frank: When you say trust the technology, you're 
saying, that just trust that your unconscious mind will 
come up with this? 

Ross: No. No, I, let me, if I may. Once you understand 
the technology, then you understand that as long as 
you know how to say, and the other thing I think is 
interesting is, and then you'll be able to relate it to

something else. If you understand the theme, if you 
really understand the theme and you're not just 
parroting, then you know how to, how to transition 
into something. If I'm talking about fantasies, right? 
What I will do is, here's how I think about things. I'll 
draw the word fantasy in a big circle and I'll draw 
arrows. I'll go, okay, what about fantasies is 
interesting to me? Okay? Well, they take on a life of 
their own. And what would be a description of that? 
So I'll write out the description. How do fantasies take 
on a life of their own? Where does that happen? 
What is that similar to that everyone's experienced? 
Well, everyone's heard of a song in their head and 
couldn't get it out. How can I use the fact that that's a 
universal experience? Well, I'll go, "Hey Debbie, for 
example, you know, I think fantasies are so interesting 
how they take on a life of their own. Like you ever 
have a song in your head and you can't get it out? 
The more you try, it's just there. Everywhere you go, 
everything you do, you hear that song? Well, it 
would be like then, if you're fantasizing about a 
person, you hear this person's voice right in that same 
place where the song plays over and over and over 
again.” Okay? But I am to generate that cause I asked 
myself okay, where does this happen? What's 
something similar to that that everyone's experienced 
that I can use to get her into that mindset? Okay? 

Audience: 'Men after that you move on to the next 
step? 

Ross: I'll say, then I move on and go well, I'll think to 
myself, okay, what else about it, what else is there 
about fantasies? I'll draw this for you. Okay? This is 
really good. This is, this is solid gold stuff you guys 
are getting this morning. And it's just, I know it may 
be over some of your heads but we're going to go 
back until you get it. All night? So look. So, I'll say, I'll 
draw. This is  what I do. I have charts on my floor. If 
anyone's been to my house and seen my closets I 
have stacks of charts where I've worked on these 
ideas and certain people who helped me so much, 
thank you, thank you, thank you. Clean up my place.  

Girl: That's the night position ...  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Girl: You guys be on your knees ...  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Thank you. They were everywhere. And she 
came in, and cause I have to move, she came in like a 
tornado, drill sergeant, organized everything. Now 
we're going to go through this part of the house, and 
go over there. Well, I have, no, you're going to sit 

there, you're going to go through every one of them, 
every one and decide what you're going to throw out 
now. (Girl in background talking) No I like it, it's not 
mean, it's just nice and commanding, the way I like it. 
Okay? You can either have a little tiny dainty dove or 
you can have a falcon. What? 

Audience: I have a question.  

Ross: Yes sir.  

Audience: Is there, do you guys recommend any 
patterns to run actually during getting a blowiob or 
by then is just ...  

Ross: Yeah,  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Yeah, it goes oohhh, uhhhh.  

Audience: Just checking.  

Ross: There are times when you don't really want to 
distract her.  

Audience: Applause and laughter.  

Audience: There is a time not to run a pattern. This is 
what I'm getting at.  

Ross: But, you want ...  

Audience: Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if they 
were wanting to make her, like, you know ...  

Ross: You, you ...  

Girl: No wonder you guys talk so much 

Audience: I have a similar question.  

Ross: The outcome's about to come out. Yes.  

Audience: Laughter. Let's say you spent a period of 
time with someone, how many patterns, how long,  

Ross: They, what did I say? Formula, patterns are not 
rules, they're just examples, okay? You said 
something. You don't want to continue the patterns. 
Listen to me. You don't want to continue repeating 
what I've written for you but you want to learn to 
generate these kind of language for yourself. See, its 
not a just, its not about casting. There's a difference 
between being a sorcerer and someone who uses a 
spell. A sorcerer is someone who always thinks about 
this and lives it. Okay? You can be someone who 
temporarily says my spells and get, gets an outcome. 
But that's not as powerful as being someone who 
moves through the world thinking in this way. Yes, 
Brother Ryan.  

Ryan: I think about it like this. When you, when you

make, when you seduce a woman, right, you're using 
patterns, you make a promise almost. You, you know, 
let her believe and you are this person and then if you 
stop talking that way, you no longer fulfilling your 
promise. So if you've been, as you move into, maybe 
not when you're actually getting _____ , but even as 
you move into that, you can continue to make the 
experience pleasurable. Even as you develop, if you 
develop a relationship, you know, you can still, you 
can still talk in these themes and in this way, or she's 
going to notice a difference and she's not going to 
appreciate it. I mean, you know, it's not a one shot 
deal. You want to keep reinforcing it, you want to 
keep delivering what you've promised.  

Ross: You want to become the kind of man who 
thinks about the world in a different way. Now,  

here's the way to do that. Grab a book and when y ou 
see a theme in the book that interests you, underline it 
and begin to do this. So let's take, okay. So this is 
how I would do it. If you came to my house, you 
would see this. Of course, you'd see my charts are 
now chewed up and clawed.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: _____ my best research is, is fodder for her to 
roll around on. Or I'll be drawing something, like I'll be 
showing Brother Coby something, some really 
important marketing point and she'll come and sit right 
down on the charts so we can't see it.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She's your cat.  

Girl: Hey, Ross? 

Ross: Yeah.  

Girl: Reply 

Ross: Yes, of course you may.  

Girl: If he's going do what he's point out, is that the 
difference between doing this for a little while to get 
an outcome and make me a part of your life?  

Ross: Right.  

Girl: And if you're going to do this, you really have to 
make it a part of your life in a way, the way you 
communicate all the time, not just when you're trying 
to get a chick in bed. And all that, all of the attitudes 
and everything become part of your life, which is 
much more effective.  

Ross: And that's really sexy, cause then your whole 
life is a wonderful, joyous event, so god dammit.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Would you stop steering them in the wrong 
direction honey? That's my best friend in the whole 
world back there. Right? Bunny.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Why is that . 9 I don't know. She's got me 
hip-nick-otized. Okay. Fantasy.  

Audience: Laughter 

Girl: Really? 

Ross: She used girlnosis on you. She used g irlnosis, 
_____  

Audience: Laughter. Responses from audience.  

Ross: Okay. Did you say what I thought you just 
said? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I know, you ever take nitroglycerin and like kick 
it and throw lit matches at it? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Don't go there.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She looks small but her arms are really strong 
from doing all, look at the forearms. Go ahead, flex. 
Her forearms are strong. She said to me today, she 
said, you know, she said some women can only 
damage body parts but I can rip them off. I went, 
yeah, I know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Girl: I didn't say that.  

Ross: Well, along those lines. Fantasies. Okay. So lets 
go to fantasies. Okay. So I'll draw arrows. I like to 
draw arrows and circles. Okay? So I'll draw an arrow 
and I'll think to myself, okay, what about fantasies? 
Well, they take on ... Here's the question I ask. I'll 
write fantasies in a circle, and the big metaquestion I 
ask is what's interesting about fantasies to me? Okay? 
I'll just start thinking, well they take on a life their 
own. They take on a life of their own. Okay? Are you 
following my thinking? Not just writing but are 
following how I think about it? Okay. What's 
interesting about dwarfs? Well, lets see ...  

Audience: You can throw them.  

Ross: You can throw them.  

Audience: Laughter 

background image

 

87

Ross: Okay.  

Audience: That's sounded . Laughter. They start 
small, responses from audience.  

Ross: Yeah, I know. Okay? They take on ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: They're always sticking their nose in other 
people's business.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. Okay, listen. They take on a life of their 
own. Okay? Once I pick that topic, they take on life, 
the subtopic, how they take on a life of their own? I'll 
say to myself, how does that happen? How does that 
happen? Okay? And then that in turn gives me the 
description. So I'll write down, actually, the way I do 
this is I do it half asleep. I'm lying there in bed and I 
hear the words in my head, and then I begin to say 
the words out loud. And then I run and I write them 
down. So my process is I'm lying in like half a trance 
state, I'll hear the words in my head, I'll hear myself 
speaking the words, I'll speak them out loud, and then 
I go and I write them down.  

Audience: You should keep a tablet in bed.  

Major Mark: He keeps _____ by the bed.  

Ross: I, well, ...  

Audience: Do you getup? 

Ross: I get up and write them on a, on a, on my chart. 
Okay? Well, usually what I do is I'll go through it like 
three times. So I'll hear it in my head, repeat it out 
loud, hear it in my head again to see if I want to 
change it, repeat it out loud, and then run it through 
my head and if it sounds right I'll repeat it out loud 
and then I go and I write it down. Yes.  

Audience: Ross, you hear what in your head? The 
descriptions? 

Ross: The description.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Okay. Now this happens real fast for me. It 
happens in the space of a second, but I'm giving you 
my, my, my algorithm, showing you my strategy so 
you know how do it yourself. Okay. Then I'll come up 
with a description. Once I've got the description, I'll 
say, what else is interesting to me about fantasies? 
You all right? 

Audience: Yeah, I'm fine.  

Ross: You want, jump in at any time, okay? 

Audience: Response 

Ross: Okay. What else is interesting about fantasies? 
Well, I'll think how fantasies become more and more 
powerful the more you try to deny yourself. So, okay. 
How they become more and more powerful the more 
you deny them. And then I ask the same question, 
how does that happen? So the basic questions I ask 
are what is interesting to me about x? I write that 
down, then I say, how does happen and that gives me 
the description.  

Audience: What's my last _____ , bottom _____ .  

Ross: The description. Are you understanding this, 
sir? How I come up with it? Are you understanding 
the sequence? I say what's interesting to me about 
this. Then I ask, I write that down, whatever it is, then 
I say how does that happen. That gives me the 
description. And the description is the actual pattern 
language. This is what you're actually going to say to 
the chick. Okay? You get it? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: I'm not hearing yes or no from you sir.  

Audience: Yeah, I'm wondering what's in the ...  

Ross: This one? Okay, this is the, I'll say, then the 
next question is, I'll say what else is interesting to me 
about this? Then I say, okay, how they become more 
and more powerful the more you try to deny them. 
And then I ask how does that happen, and then I give 
the description of how that happens. I'm not going to 
give you the wording. I want you to come u p with 
your own. We're going to do an exercise after lunch. 
Using this formula, I'm going to give you a topic and 
you guys are going to come up with patterns. All 
right? I'm going to drill you really hard. I want you to 
be able to do this on your own? Yes? Good? 
Different? Great?

Tape 5 – Side 1 

 

Yates: This is Side 9 of the Basic Speed Seduction 
Seminar by Ross Jeffries 

 

Ross: Great? Language master. Time for a break? 

Major Mark: No wait. One other thing. Wait, wait, 
wait. Because when you, to my mind, my opinion, it's 
not enough to give a couple different descriptions. 
You have to include a call to action. Okay? And the 
best call to action is a double bind question. Oka y? 
So for example,  

Audience: Explain double bind question.  

Ross: Explain what it is.  

Audience: double blind? 

Ross: Double bind.  

Major Mark: If I were to be given chance, I would, 
okay? Now, when we're talking about fantasies and 
we have two examples about how they take on a life 
of their own or what was the other one? 

Ross: They take on a life of their own and how they 
become more and more strong the more you try to 
deny them.  

Major Mark: Oh, more and more strong. Okay.  

Ross: One more thing. I would do three descriptions.  

Major Mark: Right. Three. Okay. And then you ask a 
simple question. Say, it's all interesting isn't it. What 
is it about, well you know, those fantasies that are so 
compelling? It's like, you have to ask yourself is it that 
they draw you towards them with an irresistible desire 
or is that you are just compelled to move towards 
them out of something that's welling up within you? 
Okay? 

Ross: Oh, man. Laughter 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Let's do that, we need this word for word. This 
is something where they need to be spoon-fed. Look 
at the structure of what he does. I want to give you 
the structure and then we'll do it word for word. Yes 
sir, question.  

Audience: by the time you fall for the double bind or 
whatever that they're already in a trance and they're 
not going to notice ...  

Mark: Right. Well see, you don't want to give her 

three killer examples of powerful compelling fantasies 
and she goes, "Wow, that was great. Thank you. 
Gotta go.” You know. Cause that is your most likely 
outcome if you don't go to the call to action.  

Ross: Okay, the general, the overall structure is what 
is it about x, where x is the topic, is it y, where y is one 
choice where's she's going to jump you, or is it z, 
where z is the other choice where she's going to jump 
you right there and then? So, if you would go through 
the exact languaging again please, Major Mark? 

Mark: What is it ...  

Ross: Isn't Major Mark awesome? 

Audience: Applause and cheers  

Ross: I'm _____ , do like ... Is it time? 

Mark: What is it about, well, those fantasies, 
nonspecific, that is so compelling ...  

Ross: If you don't slow down a little bit. I know the 
speed at which they need to be spoon-fed. Okay? 
What is it about those fantasies that is so compelling 
... Yes sir 

Audience: As far as either so compelling, or ...  

Mark: No. No.  

Ross: No. No.  

Mark: You want to set up a predicate. Okay? What is 
it about those fantasies, I'm being non-specific 
because I want her to pick one, okay? That is so 
compelling, that's the predicate, that you have to ask 
yourself 

Audience: Or one ask themselves.  

Mark: You ...  

Ross: No. Stop. This is disruptive. Let him continue. 
Go ahead Mark.  

Mark: Trust me. I actually know how to do this.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Mark: Okay. That is so compelling you have to ask 
yourself is it that it draws you forward with an 
irresistible impulse and attraction or you feel yourself 
propelled towards it 

Audience: I lost you on there  

Mark: Impulse or attraction or 

Audience: Either or 

Mark: Yeah 

Audience: Response from audience 

background image

 

89

Mark: Well, you could. Or you could say one or the 
other. Or say something similar. As long as you don't 
weaken it. Or you find yourself propelled towards it as 
though riding an unstoppable urge from within? 

Ross: Laugh 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Mark: Propelled 

Ross: Propelled towards it 

Mark: As though riding an unstoppable urge from 
within.  

Ross: Now listen, _____ . Unstoppable urge ...  

Audience: Response from audience. It's just that you 
lay them with a double binder so she doesn't have a 
choice but don't you also want to anchor it to you 
because she may take that choice and go do that with 
somebody else or ...  

Ross: Well, its anchored to him because of his voice. 
But hang on, there's a point I want to make here. Hold 
your questions a minute. I'm going to ask, hold your 
questions just for a second. Cause there's some 
things more to teach. Please pay attention up here 
Phoenix. Okay? Understand, he's doing something 
else. He's giving her a, there's a, there's a certain 
aspect of motion here where he's saying you're either 
going to be, are you being drawn forward or are, are 
you, are you, are you, are you being pulled towards it 
or is there something pushing you towards it? It's sort 
of a propulsion system so in effect both are 
happening. She's both being drawn towards it and 
something inside her is pushing her towards it. So 
she's being, it's a push her pull, it's a push/pull. She's 
both being pulled forward and pushed from behind. 
So Mark is saying it's not enough in his mind that she 
be pulled towards him by urge. She also has to feel 
that there's something irresistibly pushing her at the 
same time so she's really moving forward.  

Mark: I'm lazy. Okay? This is a recurring theme in my 
work. I am really lazy. I don't want to have to care 
whether she has a moving towards strategy or 
moving away strategy. Okay? She can choose. I'm 
offering her a legitimate choice. They all lead to me, 
okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Mark: She has a legitimate choice.  

Ross: The real distinction here, Mark is making a 
comparison. He's comparing being drawn with being 
propelled. This is the key to Mark's pattern. The key 
to the pattern that Mark just gave you in all that 

languaging and all that beautiful, brilliant baroque 
beautiful piece of languaging, a gem, is this. Drawn 
and propelled. These two words are the key to that 
pattern. Yes? 

Mark: Yes.  

Ross: Okay? So I can zero in and go, okay, what's the 
key to what Mark's doing? Now I can spin my own 
pattern on this. I can go, "What's the difference 
between the things in life that draw us and the things 
that propel us?" And I can go into a completely new 
pattern. This is how I generate patterns cause I know 
what to listen for and to see what is the most 
important part.  

Audience: Would you go through that once more? 

Ross: Yeah. I can, I'll do it right now if you, you know, 
I'm not gonna, I'm too lazy.  

Mark: And besides. She will come across with a 
response. Okay. It may be verbal, it may be nonverbal, 
she is going to react to one of these choices. Okay? 
And, if she goes, "Oh, well, It just, I see it and it's so 
fascinating, I'm just drawn into it.” I'm going, hmmm, 
what can I do with this? Okay. She's just given me 
next five minutes of conversation. Or if she is like 
being non-verbal but highly oral, do you just stop 
there. Which is your point. You know, its 

Ross: All right. Now it's time for a break. Let's take 10 
minutes.  

BREAK 

Mark: So, is this clear to people? Do you understand 
it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. We understanding? My purpose here is 
not to get you think about fantasies per se, but to 
show you the overall structures to generate your own 
patterns. Now someone said to me, "This is all great. 
Here in the room I understand it. But what about 
when I'm home?" Well, then you're fucked, no ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: When you g o home there's some things you 
can do. One of the things we can do now is we're 
going to do an exercise that Brother Coby told me to 
do. Which is we're going to pick a partner, and what 
you're going to do is you're going to take that partner 
and you're going to explain to them the structure of 
how to generate patterns. You're going to teach your 
partner what the specific steps are to generate a 
pattern. You're not going, now listen. I'm not saying 
go generate a pattern. I didn't say that. I said you're 

background image

 

90

going to pick a partner and teach your partner what 
are the steps to generate a pattern. And then your 
partner's going to turn around and teach you. Okay? 
If you can teach someone else then you know you've 
got it. So here's what we're going to do. Pick a partner 
that you haven't worked with before. Those of you at 
home, if you have a friend you can discuss speed 
seduction with, you can do it with them or you can 
imagine someone and explain it into a tape recorder. 
All right? So what we're going to do is we're going to 
pick a partner, someone you have not worked with 
before, okay? And then what you're going to do is 
you're going to explain to them the structure of how 
you generate patterns. And I'm going to go over it 
real quickly. What you do is, you ask yourself the 
question, you pick a topic, and you say to yourself 
what is it about this topic that really interests me? 
Let's go back to that one. What's interesting about 
this topic to me? And then you write that topic and 
you write that thing down, whatever it is, and then 
you ask the question how does that happen and that 
generates the description.  

Ross: That's the process, okay? So pick a partner. I 
don't want you taking more than 10 minutes to do 
this. Pick a partner, teach them and switch. The 
distinction that you need to get is between the 
content and the process. I wasn't asking you to spin a 
pattern about fantasies, I was asking you to explain 
the process of how you come up with a new pattern. 
That's what I was asking you to do. To get the 
distinction between process and content is a very 
important one. I wasn't asking you to generate a 
pattern on fantasy. I was saying what is the structure 
for generating a pattern? Okay? Very good. I want to 
talk a little bit, take a few minutes, I'm going to take, I'll 
take _____ from here for a while. You know, it's a, it's 
a funny thing that when people are locked in struggle 
that if you come along and give them a way to get out 
of struggle, they're so used to the struggle it feels 
uncomfortable to let go of it. That, you know, if you 
take a, an animal that's born in the wild but you get it 
as a cub and you stick it in a cage ... Well, I remember 
watching this show – this is not a pattern, this is true 
- where they raised bear cubs from captivity. They 
were in captivity as cubs and it came to release them 
and they didn't want to leave the cage, they wouldn't 
go. Cause the cage was what was familiar to them. So 
some of you here are, are, I know, have a I can't have 
that Ebin. Some of you here are familiar with an 
identity, an identity that says you have to lose, you 
have to have the pain of struggle, you have to be a 
victim, et cetera et cetera et cetera. I'm here to tell you, 
you're absolutely right. I'm not going to try to 

dissuade you from being that because as long as you 
believe that that's the way you have to be, you're 
correct. The notion I want to present to you is that 
beliefs have a tremendous amount of power, that's 
there no difference in, and Major Mark will back me 
up on this, there's no distinction in terms of its power 
and its effect, between a belief that you hold deeply 
and a hypnotic suggestion that's given to you in deep 
trance that you suggest. They both work the same 
way and they have the same power. That's why you 
don't argue with people who have a belief. For 
example, if someone were sitting in this chair and I or 
Major Mark had them in deep trance and I gave them 
the suggestion that it was absolutely freezing cold in 
here, sub-zero temperature, and we would give them 
that post-hypnotic suggestion that wh enever they 
heard the word dingleberry they'd feel it freezing cold. 
They would feel it. And you'd say to them, "Why are 
you shivering like that? It's not cold in here.” You 
could try to argue with them and it wouldn't go 
anywhere. So the notion our society that once 
something happens to you, you're stuck with it is a %, 
cry powerful notion and it's a very destructive notion. 
I know a lot of you have had things happen to you in 
your past. I had a very bad past with females, okay? 
The thing is this, is your past isn't who you are and 
it's not what you deserve, it's just what happened. 
The minute you can really understand that, step into 
that, and lock into that, the minute you realize the past 
isn't who you are or what you deserve, it's just what 
happened, then you can let go of it. Okay? There's a 
story about, you know, the story about the monkey 
that was terrorizing the village. Very clever little 
monkey. This was a hyper intelligent monkey, a very 
mischievous monkey. He liked to do things like pee in 
the village soup right before they had a community 
dinner and, you know, he'd run around and one of the 
village leaders would be giving a talk and he'd throw 
his poop right in the face, and he was a very mean 
little monkey, you know? People would be about to be 
making love and he'd jump on their back and bite 
them. And they were all just beside themselves cause 
they could not catch this damn little monkey. So they 
got together the best hunters in the village and they 
said, "We're going to get this monkey.” So they laid a 
trap, a very clever trap. They dug a pit and they 
camouflaged it with leaves and they put the monkey's 
favorite foods, bananas and nuts and all this other 
stuff, and the monkey very cleverly was watching. So 
he swang from the vine, swung from a vine, grabbed 
all the food and got away. So they were beside 
themselves, they didn't know what to do with this 
monkey. He liked to go to the best looking women in 
the village and drop his little monkey ding in front of

them, they were going bananas. What are  they going 
to do with this monkey? Well, one day a wizard 
wanders into town and he notices the people are just 
beside themselves and he said, "What's going on?" 
They told the story about this monkey. He said, 
"Really? Show me where the monkey hangs out.” So 
they take the wizard to the village square and there's 
the monkey looking at the wizard thinking, "Oh, here's 
a new guy I can play with. What am I going to do with 
this guy?" The wizard said, "What's the monkey 
really like to eat?" They said, "He likes a certain kind 
of nuts.” He said, "Get me great big old handful.” So 
the wizard walks over to a tree with a hole in it, starts 
throwing the nuts down into the hole, cause he can't 
fit his hand into it, so he's pouring them in like that. 
And the guy said, " What are you doing? He's going 
to see them going into the tree. You're not going to 
trick him.” The wizard, "Don't worry about it.” So as 
soon as the wizard walks away the monkey comes 
swinging down, runs up to the hole in the tree, sticks 
in his hand and gets a great big huge fistful of these 
nuts and he can't pull his hand out. And the wizard 
said, "Excuse me, give me a machete.” The monkey 
sees the wizard coming with the machete. He says, 
"I'm not letting go of this fucking meal. This is mine.” 
The wizard's getting closer and closer and the monkey 
goes, "These are my nuts, dammit.” Well, that night 
they dined on monkey-head stew and the wizard got 
the best looking women in the village, and he began 
to teach classes -how to kill monkeys. The moral of 
the s tory is what you refuse to let go is what keeps 
you stuck. Now, you can continue to be raging and 
angry at all the women who ever fucked you over, but 
guess what? You're like, don't be writing here ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Guess what? If that's what y ou want to do, you 
walk around with your hand stuck inside a tree stump 
and you won't go anywhere and someone's going to 
cut your head off sooner or later. It's totally up to 
you. Now unfortunately we live in a society where 
there are certain belief patterns that people are taught 
to take on. Now, I understand that sometimes horrible 
things happen to people. People go through terrible 
things, you know, the Holocaust. I have relatives who 
are Holocaust survivors and some of them, totally 
bent by it. Totally bent by it. Others, well, that 
happened to me, that was then, this is now, I'm going 
to have a ferocious determination to live a good life 
no matter what happened to me. Because if you don't, 
guess what happens? You make the people who hurt 
you continue to be present and in control of your life, 
even if they're long dead. So if that's what you want 
to do, if you want to walk around being a victim, 

congratulations. You can take it and you can keep it. 
Because the fact of the matter is a victim is someone 
who makes their oppressor very important. The victim 
in effect makes the oppressor their god. Because if 
you think of the god as the one thing that's the most 
present in your life, spiritually, emotionally and 
physically, well, in order to define yourself as a victim, 
you have to constantly keep the oppressor around. 
So congratulations, you're your own twisted kind of 
Satan worshipper if that's the way you want to think. 
Cause you make the person in your life who hurt you 
the most the person who's most present. Sounds 
pretty twisted to me. But we live in a society where 
we're taught to think that way, where you're given 
rewards for being a victim. I'll give you a story. This is 
a story that's absolutely true. Who saw the movie 
BORN ON THE FOURTH OF JULY? I met that little 
prick. Yeah, I met him back when I was a UCLA 
student in the late, early 80s. And he was in some 
rally just, there was some rally, I forget what the 
nature was, exactly what it was about, it was when the 
hostages were taken in Iran. I'm showing you how old 
I am. And the Young Republicans were there and the 
Communists were up there making speeches and then 
Ron Covick wheels up in his wheelchair. And he's 
saying the exact same things that the speaker before 
was getting heckled for. When the speake r before, 
who could walk, was saying the same things, people 
were screaming at him. But Ron Covick comes up and 
saying the exact same bullshit and no one's saying a 
word. And I walked up to him and I said, "You are a 
fucking bully.” I said, "The fact that you're in that 
wheelchair doesn't mean that what you're saying is 
true and you're relying on the fact that we're taught 
not to challenge people who have a handicap, and I 
think you're a fucking bully and you should be 
ashamed of your fucking self.” Then I walked away. 
See, there's an advantage to being the victim. If you're 
a victim, then people can't confront you, people can't 
tell you to shut the fuck up and sit down. People can't 
tell you pull your head out of your ass. Okay? So, if 
you want to think of yourself in that way, "Women 
were mean to me, ahhh, I'm too fat, or whatever" go 
ahead. Cause guess what? I don't give a shit. It's not 
that I don't have compassion that you went through 
pain, but what I'm trying to say to you is the way 
you're thinking about it is keeping you stuck. Now, 
there are organizations in this society that teach us to 
think that way. Step programs. I don't think too highly 
of Step programs cause Step programs teach you that 
this is who you are and you can never be healed from 
it.  

Audience: I'm a recovering alcoholic.  

background image

 

92

Ross: Right. That means that's who you always will 
be and you will never be healed of it. It is who you 
are, it's inherent in your soul and you will always be 
that way. Okay? 

Audience: Now, you can be a recovered alcoholic.  

Ross: Ahhh, good. There's a distinction between the 
two.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: That's, there's a distinction between the two 
and an important one.  

Audience: But aren't you still defining yourself as an 
alcoholic if you say you're a recovered alcoholic? 

Ross: Whether it's an alcoholic, a fartoholic or 
anything else, my point in this room is this. That 
whatever happened to you in your life, if you want to 
hang on to it all it does is it keeps you there like the 
monkey and the tree. Okay. Now later on in the 
weekend I will present some processes to you that 
you can choose to participate in or not. I don't care. If 
you choose to participate in them, I can show you 
how to let go of all that. So you don't have to think 
about yourself that way anymore. If you don't want to 
and you want to hang on to your victimhood, have a 
party. Just don't wave it in my face cause I don't care. 
Okay? Get it? Now, let's move on to something more 
constructive, but it has to be said. Now, one of the 
things I want to talk about is flexibility. Okay? Cause 
flexibility is extremely important. Now, Brother Pelone, 
will you come up here a minute? 

Pelone: Sure.  

Ross: This is my friend and also _____ brother, 
Brother Pelone. Brother Pelone, sit down.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Now, I'm extremely fond of Brother Pelone 
because first of all, he's extremely sincere. He's a really 
good guy. He really wants to learn, he's very 
open-minded and Brother Pelone is absolutely 
fearless. Brother Pelone 

Audience: Absolutely.  

Ross: Absolutely. Brother Pelone sees women, it's 
charge, assault that beach. Okay? Now here's the 
thing though. Here's the thing that, I, I, I, I want to 
give you some gifts. I want to add in some things for 
you because you're, you're a good loyal Student, yes9 

Pelone: Yes.  

Ross: That's right. And he's also sort of like my 
bodyguard, so, it's good to have him here. The thing 

is this, is part of being good with these skills is the 
ability to recognize what response you're getting. 
Okay? If you walk up to a woman and you say to her, 
"You know, I have this intuition that when you really 
feel a connection with someone, " and she's going, 
okay, that means she's not down with it and you have 
to back off and do something else. So, on the one 
hand, Pelone has some thing that I want you all to get, 
which is lie's fearless. You charge forward, yes? 

Pelone: Definitely.  

Ross: Now, I'm Curious about something. When you 
see a woman that you want to meet, what goes 
through your head that allows you to just go 
charging forward? Do you say something to yourself? 
Do you do something with her image? What do you 
do just before you charge forward? 

Pelone: I see her and I say, "Oh, an opportunity.” 

Ross: Oh, an opportunity.  

Pelone: An opportunity to give someone my special 
gift.  

Ross: Ahhh. Now, that's something very interesting. 
An opportunity to give someone my special gift. 
Now, the concept I want to present to you is the gift 
you want to give the person may not be the gift that 
they're, at the moment, open to accepting. That, it's 
okay to finally give them your special gift, but you 
want to start out with the gift that they're able to 
accept. And that requires that you take a second step, 
which is, before you go charging, to look at the 
person, to open you intuition, and I'll show you how 
to do that, and go, hmmm, who is that person and 
what are they telling about themselves? And to allow 
that to guide what your next step is going to be. Now, 
some of you who are, who used to be so into 
hesitation need to take on his strategy. But for 
someone like this who's fearless in the first place, you 
need to add in an intuition step first.  

Pelone: That's correct.  

Ross: Okay. He's a marine, he's not afraid, right? I 
mean they charge you, they, don't they teach you ...  

Pelone: I was brainwashed.  

Ross: Ha, ha. He was in a ...  

Pelone: It's the truth. He's a recovering marine.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: He's a recovering marine. Well, what did they 
brainwash you to go ...  

Audience: Laughter 

background image

 

93

Ross: What did they, what did they brainwash you to 
believe? 

Pelone: They brainwashed me to believe that when I 
hear an order I respond without hesitation.  

Ross: But, no one's giving you an order when you're 
there seeing an h. b. , so what do you ...  

Pelone: I give myself the order.  

Ross: You give yourself the order. Okay. Now listen 
to me. There's a difference between responding to an 
internal order and being drawn forward by something 
that you're perceiving and connecting with.  

Pelone: Okay.  

Ross: Okay? I want you to sit a minute and think 
about that distinction. There's a distinction between 
being, charging forward based on an order you give 
yourself and being drawn forward by someone you're 
perceiving and what you perceive that person to be. 
Because one allows a connection to happen first 
before you take action. The other is totally generated 
by yourself That can work for you, it will get you 
going quicker the way you're doing things, but it may 
get you going in situations where the person is just 
totally closed off to any communication, Not because 
they have anything against you, it's just who they, in 
the moment, they can be in that mood. And even if 
someone is in that mood, okay, if you look at a woman 
and your intuition tells you she's closed off right now, 
that doesn't mean you don't approach. It means you 
approach differently. So, let's say you're reading, 
there's a woman in front of you ...  

Pelone: Okay 

Ross: You go a little intuitive. I'm going to show you 
guys how to do this, okay? And your intuition says, 
"Okay, she's open, happy, ready to meet people.” 
Then it's okay to go up. What's your standard 
meeting, greeting when you go up to talk a woman? 
Like at that bar, the Friday's yesterday, what did you 
say to her?  

Pelone: I just walked up and said hello.  

Ross: Just hello.  

Pelone: Hello and I introduced myself and I asked her 
where's a good place to go hang out and have fun. I'm 
from out of town.  

Ross: Good. Okay. Cool. Okay. Great. Okay. What if 
there's, you could insert a step where you look at the 
woman, you go into this  intuitive state and you sort 
of reach out and feel her with your hand and go, 
"Hmmm, what's her energy like?" And then you say 

to yourself, "Okay, granted that she's feeling a little 
bitchy or she's a little cold, put her on.” Then to the 
extent you see s omeone who's really closed, (noise in 
background), oh, my agent.  

?: Yes? I'm _____  

Ross: Out to smoke, tell a dirty joke, and whistling is 
prohibited. Anyone know that song? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: No one's allowed to tell a dirty joke, when

Chris: Yeah.  

Ross: If any form is pleasure is exhibited report to me

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You know, the other day I had, oh, never mind. 
We're not going to go there. Okay. Very good, very 
funny. Wow, you do better voices than the Rolling 
Stone reporter did. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I want to talk a little bit about sub-modalities. 
There's a big mystery about sub-modalities and what 
they are and all this other stuff. It's very simple. The 
notion I want to present to you and look up here, you 
can write later. This is in your notes so you can write 
later. The notion I want to present to you is this. The 
notion I want to present to you is that people don't 
just have thoughts. The thoughts that people have 
subjectively have locations. Just as an example, this is 
not, now please, this is only an example, it is not a 
rule. For the most part, when people visualize 
something, they tend to think about the things that 
are really important to them, real big right in the 
center. If something is less important they tend to 
picture it down here in a comer. Okay? Generally 
speaking this is only an example, it is not a rule, okay? 
Generally speaking as something becomes less 
important to them it gets smaller and further away. Do 
you understand? So they think of someone who's 
really important, as that person becomes less 
important the picture gets further away and smaller. 
Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Okay. These are just general ideas, I'm not 
saying everyone is this way. Some people are 
different, okay? Now, this is also useful for you in 
building a powerful self-image. So let me show you 
how we do this. We're going to do a little exercise. 
This requires you to take all notes and all writing 
instruments, for the moment, and put them on the 
floor. Just for the moment. Just for the moment. And 
this is a participatory exercise, it's not about 
intellectual understanding so you have to do the 
exercise to get the benefit. Okay? Fair enough? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: All right. So, remember I talked to you 
yesterday about picture in a picture? 

Audience: yes  

background image

 

95

Ross: That sort of thing? Okay? We're going to do 
some things sort of like that. By the way, who's the 
person who before he came in yesterday had trouble 
visualizing? How are you doing, bow are you doing 
with that now? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Ha, ha, ha. Good.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Part of visualizing, part of visualizing is 
knowing when to turn it off. So, if you were to reach 
up, watch this, if you were to reach up to that dial that 
controls the brightness of an image, I don't know 
what side is that dial on? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: And reach up, put your hands on it, what 
direction do you turn it to turn the brightness down? 
That's right. Turn the brightness all the way down. 
Now, can you see it? That's right. Now turn the 
brightness up.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Isn't that weird? It's on my nose? Ahhhhh.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That's pretty easy. Learn to play with your own 
dials. By the way, I say this to chicks. I say, "You 
know that dial that controls the speed at which 
pictures are, " here's the story. True story. This was 
years ago, early in my career. I was sitting at a party 
trying to seduce this woman and she said, "Well, you 
know, I'm pretty uptight about, about these things. I'm 
Catholic and I suffer from obsession.” I said, I said, 
"No, you mean, you mean, depression.” And she 
said, "No, obsession. I have all these thoughts 
running around in my head.” And so I grabbed her 
arm, I said, "Start taking those pictures that you're 
seeing ...” She's describing what her pictures were 
doing, she had pictures running around like this. I 
said, "Take those pictures you're seeing and start 
doing them in the opposite direction.” So she did. 
And I said (sneezes), excuse me, nothing to sneeze at 
here. I said, they were spinning in the opposite 
direction, I said, "Slow them down. Now take them 
and move them out in front of you like an accordion 
and look at all of them. I want you to reach out and to 
do look at each one and if it's something you believe, 
Is the put it back up there. If it's not something that 
you really want to have in your life, throw it down at 
your feet.” So she went into trance and she was doing 
this for 15 minutes. And I was going, "No, stay away 
from her.” She came out and she said, "Oh my god. 

I'm not Catholic any more.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Wooo. So cool.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Now please, if you're Catholic, I'm not, you 
know, Ave Maria, I'm not knocking you or anything. 
I'm just talking about the fact that, that if you tell 
people to do things with their pictures, they do it. I, in 
fact, I've even asked, I reached out and grabbed her 
hand and said, "Now move them the other way.” 
Okay? Another girl. I said, well she told me that she 
was having trouble concentrating. I could tell the 
trouble was she, her pictures were going by too fast. I 
said, "You know that knob that controls the speed at 
which your pictures go by?" And she, and I, and I, I 
showed her what I wanted to do. I said, "If you were 
to reach out and grab hold of it, where is it?" She 
reached out and grabbed hold of it. I said, "Now what 
direction do you turn it to slow those down?" And 
she went like this. I don't say "can you see the knob, 
" I said, "you know that knob.” And they just go right 
on with you, oh yeah, sure.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's that simple. Now, you, you guys don't 
believe me yet, but you'll, you try this and they'll go, 
"oh, yeah, sure.” It's that simple. Okay, so look. So I 
want you to, close your eyes. Now some people 
visualize better with their eyes open, by the way, 
whatever you want to do. But I, let's just for this 
purpose you close your eyes, okay? What I want you 
to do is see that great big movie screen in your mind. 
If you don't see the screen, imagine a frame or imagine 
you can see a screen. I want you to stop and think do 
you believe the sun is going to come up tomorrow? 
As you believe the sun is going to come up 
tomorrow, as you make an image of the sun coming 
up tomorrow, you believe this. Say, "Yes, the sun will 
come up tomorrow.” I want you to take your finger, 
literally take your finger and point to where on the 
screen you see that image. And with your hands, I 
want you to take your hands and draw a frame around 
the side of that picture. Okay? Now, I'm learning a lot 
from watching people. I'm going to fuck someone up 
good.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I'm going to have a victim coming up that I'm 
going to play with. Okay. That's a nice star sapphire, 
by the way. It's a beautiful ring. Okay. Now I want 
you to remember this. What I want you to do is I want 
you to imagine you got some liquid paper. You know 

background image

 

96

what white-out is, liquid paper? That's what blondes 
use when they're on your computer screen and they 
make a mistake? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? I want you to take some liquid paper and 
literally, with your hand, imagine you're whiting out 
that image of the sun coming up with that liquid 
paper. Take your hand ... It's important that you wire it 
in with your physiology. Are you having a challenge 
with this? That's right. Okay? Just white it out. There 
you go. What? 

Audience: I have a problem with getting images that 
are clear but they, they flee as soon as I concentrate 

Ross: Slow them down.  

Audience: They go away.  

Ross: Well, reach out in your hand for the control 
knob that stops them. Close your eyes, see an image. 
Where's the knob of the control that makes images 
stay? Here's what you do. Attach a rubber band to 
the comers of the image, so the more it tries to pull 
away, the more it snaps right back right in front of 
you.  

BREAK IN TAPE 

Ross: We're going to call this your "uh huh box.”  

Ready? Ross & Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: And that's the place where you think about the 
things you absolutely expect are going to happen. Uh 
huh.  

Audience: Uh huh 

Ross: Notice what it's like is an image of you buying 
more and more of my products sneaks itself ... no.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Just kidding, Just kidding. I'm not going to do 
it. Okay. Now, put your hands down. Now we're going 
to pick another place. I want you to think about 
something that used to be true about you b ut no 
longer is. Like, for example, in my case, I used to be six 
feet tall, 125 pounds. Okay? I used to be rail, stick 
skinny. So think about something about yourself that 
used to be true but no longer it is, no longer is. I know 
a person that used to be u ltra religious and now 
they're a free thinker or whatever you want to call it. 
So, something like that. Pick something that doesn't 
have a lot of, that's mild. Think about something that 
used to be true that no longer is and notice where you 
see that image. Notice where on the movie screen you 
see that. It could be anything. Maybe you used to like 

hot dogs but now you can't stand them. Okay? 
Everyone's had that experience of liking a certain food 
when they kids, but now they won't go near it. I used 
to not to like to drink wine but now I'm learning to 
enjoy . That's weird. Okay? You got that? Point to 
where you see it, And notice the difference between 
the location and the size. Put a frame around the size 
of it. Okay, this is simple. Okay. Now what I want you 
to do is white that one out. You got it? We're going to 
call that "uh uh.” Okay, point at it and go uh uh.  

Audience: Uh uh.  

Ross: All right. Good. Now we're going to do 
something. Okay? Point again to the uh huh space.  

Audience: Uh huh 

Ross: Uh huh 

Audience: Uh huh 

Ross: And notice what it's like as an image of you 
really understanding all the speed seduction attitudes 
goes right into that place. I want you to point to that, 
that, that place, seeing that image of you, the new 
you. This is the you who understands that being with 
you is the best possible thing that could happen to a 
woman. If you're not pointing to the space, you're not 
doing the exercise.  

Audience: Which 

Ross: The uh huh. Yeah.  

Ross & Audience: Uh, huh 

Ross: Close your eyes and point to the uh huh space. 
Close your eyes and point to the uh huh space.  

Audience: I'm confused.  

Ross: Okay, I know you are. You know that space in 
your mind where you think about where the sun's 
going to come up? Yeah, close your eyes and point to 
that. I want you to see the image of the you who 
really understands the speed seduction attitudes and 
not just understands them, but lives and breathe 
them. This is the you who believes, who knows that 
being with you is the best possible thing that could 
happen to a woman. This is the you who has the 
attitude that always call a woman on her bullshit. This 
is the you who gives a woman just a little bit of what 
she wants and then pulls away and makes her work 
for more. Is there a reason you're not doing the 
pointing? You need to point. If you don't point, it's 
not wired in to your neurology. Point. Do it. Okay? 
This is you who always demonstrates that willingness 
to walk away. This is the you who never supplicates 
only structures opportunities and offers challenges.

Okay? Why don't you just take a deep breath, and 
then through your lips blow the breath out into that 
image and see the breath going out golden. And fill 
that image up with a gold color. Take another deep 
breath and do it again. Now what I want you to do is 
with both hands, with both hands, reach out for that 
image, grab a hold of it and pull it down on top of 
yourself. And now, keeping your eyes closed and 
hanging on to that feeling, I want to tell you a story. 
It's a story about something that happened to me  one 
morning just before I woke up during our Bahama 
Seminar. Now the Bahama Seminar was a wonderful 
experience for me cause it was 7 days on being, of 
being on intuition autopilot. And I had a dream that 
morning that I shared with the class. And the dream 
was I was standing in a garden looking at a painter 
and a sculptor. And they were talking about how they 
do their respective things. And the painter said to the 
sculptor, "How in the world do you take that block of 
rock, cause you were standing in front o f huge block 
of stone, and carve something out of it?" And the 
sculptor says, "I don't.” He said, "The statue is 
already alive inside the rock waiting to come out. All I 
do is chip away at what doesn't belong and chisel and 
refine what's already there.” So, if you were, begin to 
understand that it's not that you become a speed 
seducer, rock by rock, the way they build a pyramid 
but instead you already are that and now all you have 
to do is take the tools we're giving you today, today, 
yesterday, today, tomo rrow and throughout the rest 
of your life and chip away what doesn't belong, 
eliminate what no longer fits, and chisel and refine 
what's already there. So that each time you use these 
tools, consciously or unconsciously, you're 
continuing to refine the person that you're becoming. 
Because I used to believe that you build the future 
one step at a time. But I no longer believe that. I've 
come to believe that the future is like an infinite 
number of railroad tracks. There are infinite number of 
possible definite destination. And what happens is 
what you believe is possible for yourself, what you 
believe you deserve at the deepest levels, determines 
which future you're going to experience. And then 
that future reaches back through time and shapes you 
and molds you into being the kind of person who's 
ready for it the day you meet it. So tonight when you 
sleep and dream and you dream the dreams of the 
sculptor instead of the dreams of the pyramid builder, 
by the way, can you imagine hiring Jews to do manual 
labor? The Pharaoh should have had them keeping 
his books instead of out there, you know, toting 
bricks.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's bad management strategy. Tonight as you 
sleep and dream, tonight as you sleep and dream, 
tonight as you sleep and dream, I don't know if you'll 
see that image of the statue gradually emerging from 
the stone. But what I want you to do is open your 
eyes, look up here, stretch yourselves. Stand up, do a 
little toney thing, like aaahhhhhh.  

Audience: Aaaahhhhhhh 

Ross: _____ , stretch yourself 

Audience: Just as long as you 

Ross: No, no, no, no, no one touches each other in 
my seminar.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Sit down, please.  

Audience: Pee break.  

Ross: You need a pee break? Does someone need a 
pee break? 

BREAK IN TAPE 

Ross: Mark likes to hammer on it. I think it's very 
important. I know some of you are, "Ross, where do I 
start?" Okay? How do I know which pattern to use 
under which circumstances? And rather than just 
throw you to the wolves and go just try it, I want to 
give you some clues as to how to do that. I think that 
only fair and part of my obligation as a teacher. Okay? 
Yes? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: You don't want to know? Let me see, before I 
do that, there's some people I need to pick on. You're 
all right. I was going to pick on you for something, 
but, yeah, come up here. I'm going to pick on you. Go 
ahead and tape this, We may decide to cut it out later, 
but go ahead and tape it as a record of my work. Sit 
down here. And I'm going to pick on you. Yeah, you. 
You, don't look away, yeah, you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That doesn't work. I like picking on people 
cause I'm a hostile son of a bitch. I figure, since I'm 
going to be hostile, I may as well channel it in the 
right direction and use it to attack people's problems. I 
think that's, of course, sometimes people don't want 
me to bring up the fact that they have problems and 
then we get into it, but ... We're going to pick on you 
guys a little bit. Now, one of the things I want to 
teach you how to do, and then we'll keep, we can 
record this for my own purposes but I don't want it on 
the course. I want to teach you guys how to do some

perceiving. Another way to open up you intuition is 
to look at things peripherally. So take a glance at the 
person straight on and then look away and look 
peripherally to see what's out of the comer of your 
and tell, and see what that tells you. Okay? Now, look 
at me Just for a second. Hmmm, let me ask you a 
question. I'm just curious. What's up with, are you, 
when you look at yourself in the mirror, are you aware 
that your eyes are like ... What's, I want you to 
imagine something for me. Close your eyes a minute 
and imagine something that would put you in stark 
raving terror and then show me the expression you 
have with your eyes.  

Audience: About the same 

Ross: About the same. Okay. Alright. So, I have some 
intuitions about him.  

Mark: Here's a clue.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There's a clue. Okay. Alright. I'm going to have 
some fun with him. We're going to fuck with him. 
Then play around with him and see how he's 
structured in his head. I don't know why I'm doing 
this, but for some intuition ...

Tape 5 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 10 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: Was it the further away something gets the 
smaller it becomes, subjectively speaking? I want, 
why don't you just close your eyes. I want you to 
imagine a very pleasant scene, okay? What I want 
you to do is as you push it away from you make it 
bigger. So push it across and make it bigger so the 
further away it gets the bigger it becomes.  

Audience: That's hard to do.  

Ross: I know. Do it. Close your eyes and do it. Okay. 
Now I want you to reverse it. Take something that's 
big across the room, close your eyes, pull it towards 
you but make it smaller, so the closer it gets to you 
the smaller it is. Now push it away and make it bigger. 
That's very uncomfortable isn't it? Disorienting? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: Okay. Now open your eyes. Okay. Whoa, whoa 
leave me a little bit. Okay. Now here's what I want you 
to do. I want you to see an image of something. Close 
your eyes. Pick something mildly unpleasant, I mean 
mildly. I mean really mild like maybe you didn't even 
stub your toe, you grazed it. Okay? I want you to see 
an image of that and what I want you to do is push it 
away from you and the further away it gets the smaller 
it gets, till it collapses to a dot across the room, and 
hold it there. And now that it's all the way out there, 
what I want you to do is, you ever see the, keep your 
eyes closed, you ever see Mr. Fantastic from the 
Fantastic Four? He was the guy who could stretch, 
you know, they had that rocky guy, and a human 
torch, the invisible woman. Then they had the guy 
who could stretch his arm ...  

Audience: Oh, Plastic Man.  

Ross: Well, he's the Marvel Comics equivalent of 
Plastic Man, sure. What I want you to do is now that 
you see that unpleasant thing across the room like 
maybe the size of a postage stamp, extend your Mr. 
Fantastic arm, you can hear the sound, rrrrrrrr, and 
just put the tip of your finger into it to get just a little 
bit of what the in that experience was. Okay? Now pull 
your hand back but leave the feeling there. Okay? All 
right. Now. Good. Now what I want you, look at the 
image again the size of a postage stamp; drop it 
through the floor. And as you drop it through the 

floor, I don't want you to drop 

through any faster than you can allow all unpleasant 
feelings associated with it to detach. So as the picture 
goes through the floor the feelings go flying away 
into space. Can you do that? All right. Now, look at 
me for a minute. We're going to do something real 
fast. You ever see a toaster? You ever see a toaster 
that has too strong a spring so that when the toast is 
ready is goes, fffft. You ever do that with a piece of 
toast as a kid? When I was a kid we didn't have toys, I 
played with the toaster, the vacuum cleaner. ”Hey 
Mom, watch. It's a toast launching contest.” Fffft, 
fffft, up goes the toast 

Mom's hand. It's time to hit me in the face just as the 
toast hits the carpet.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: The woman had reflexes that Sugar Ray 
Leonard and Muhammad All would've ... So, you 
know how that happens? Something goes fffft.  

Audience: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: Okay? You know how that works? 

Audience: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: It just pops up. So, close your eyes. So, let's do 
this thing again where you take a mildly unpleasant 
thing, you push it away. Just touch a little bit of it, 
drop it through the floor only as fast as the feelings 
go flying off into space. Okay? Do it again, one more 
time. Do it real fast. Okay, good. Now, close your 
eyes. Now I don't know, I'm guessing here, I'm _____ 
, it may not be a fact at all. It may not be. But you 
know if you would imagine a toaster, but inside that 
toaster, rather the toaster's an image, there's an image 
on the unconscious level you can been sort of 
suppressing. But when I do this, it's going to pop up, 
you'll see what it was that caused that kind of 
stark-raving terror and then immediately you'll do this 
with it. You know what that means, that you're 
supposed to do with it? 

Audience: Push it away.  

Ross: Okay. And drop it and do the rest of it, okay? 
So, I want you to, you take your, this hand, push 
down on the toaster handle, so when I touch you here 
the image is going to pop up. You understand? Fffft, 
sssss.  

Audience: I didn't get an image.  

Ross: Okay. That's okay. There may not be anything 
there. I'm just guessing. I could be absolutely wrong. 
I've been wrong before. No problem. Okay. That may

be just the way your eyes look. It could be you; it 
could be you have a thyroid condition? 

Audience: No 

Ross: No? It's just your eyes.  

Audience: No, not that I know of.  

Ross: It's just your eyes. Yeah? Could be, I don't 
know. I'm just playing with him, I'm not always right. I 
test an intuition and it doesn't work then I throw it 
away. All right. Go sit down. I don't have any problem 
with that.  

Audience: Thank you. Applause 

Ross: Although some of you may have unconscious 
minds that have unpleasant images that may find 
yourself when you sleep tonight doing identical 
process. Cause whether it works with John or not, 
someone in the room can borrow it and use it. Okay? 
Now, we're going to deal with you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: He's going, "When is he going to get to me?" I 
have a sense, I'm not sure about this. I may be wrong 
again. I want you to stop and think about something 
you know is going to happen, something you truly 
expect is going to happen. Close your eyes. Point to 
your uh huh space, where's your uh huh space? Uh 
huh, ah right. And I want you to draw a picture 
around the size of that.  

Audience: Around the size of it? 

Ross: Yeah, the size of the uh huh space. Wow, what 
a huge sense of possibility you have in life. He's 
spent a lot of the time being very motivated and 
charging forward? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: No. Hmmm. So, would it be safe to say you 
have a, your sense of what's possible for you in your 
life is sort of limited? 

Audience: Ah, in some ways, yeah.  

Ross: Yeah, in some ways. Ah, what does that imply? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Yeah. So, let's find a resource here. Rather than 
look at the problem, let's find the resource. Well, I 
want you to think of a place in your life where you 
don't have a problem. Where your sense of possibility 
in life is not limited. Okay? As you think about 
something that's possible in that part of your life, 
point to where you see that image. Now, there you go. 
Okay. That, you drew a frame around it but that'll 

work. Okay. So what would it be like if every part of 
your life you were able to see that same sense of 
possibility in that same place, same size, same 
location? What would have to happen on the inside 
in order for you to do that, such that when I said to 
you, "Think about the possibility of really having all 
these skills, notice what it's like as an image of that 
sneaks right into that place, here, and locks itself ...” 
What's the sound of the Tupperware lid locking 
down? Okay? Now, how does that feel? 

Audience: Bigger 

Ross: Bigger. Yeah. Uh, hmmm. Now you might think 
to yourself, "But what if it goes back?" You might 
think that. You might think you might think that. But 
notice the more it tries to go back, it's like there's 
elastic attached to the back of it so it just come s right 
back, and stays in that big place. Now, I don't want 
this to take place any faster than you take any 
experiences in your past that might have interfered or 
interrupted or contradicted this and toss them into the 
trash. You know, like when, you have a Mac or an 
IBM? You have a computer? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: Oh, okay. You have trash in your house? 

Audience: Uh, hmmm.  

Ross: You have a trash compactor? 

Audience: No. Ross: You ever see one? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Imagine you have one in your mind. And all 
those limiting beliefs, all the things your folks or your 
family might have told you, all the snippets of bullshit 
you picked up go right into that trash compactor. And 
you don't push the button, you kick it with your foot. 
Kick it with your foot, kick the on button. Compact it 
into a little tiny pellet, drop it into a fiery pit, that leads 
straight into the mind of someone you really don't 
like. So all those limits go into their brain, from the 
base of their spine, travel up their spine and explode 
in their brain, and you give them your limits. In fact, 
for those of you who have been really hurt in your 
life, what if you took all the crap in your life, all of it, 
all the bad beliefs, all the self-hatred and you 
compacted it into a cube and, since you can't get rid 
of it, since your belief is it must be there, send it into 
the person you hate the most. See it going right from 
the base of their spine, up into their brain, expanding, 
taking on three dimension powerful life. So, good, 
give your crap to somebody else.  

Audience: Response from audience

101

Ross: Huh? 

Audience: You, too, can be an S. O. B.  

Ross: That’s right. Why not? And why not be an S. 
O. B. to someone who really deserves it? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: You can be their misery factory. Instead of 
being your own misery factory, pass the favor on. 
Rather than having to do all the crappy things to 
someone, just put your own crap in their head. Save 
yourself time. All right. Open your eyes. Now, I want 
you to think about the possibility of really having 
mastery of these skills, say two to three months down 
the line. As you, as you look at that, point to where 
you see it. Point to where you see it.  

Audience: Point to where I think it is? 

Ross: Yeah. And draw an image, draw a frame around 
the size of it. That's pretty good. Oh, yeah, you're 
right. Okay. My intuition just spoke to me. Okay, go 
have a seat. Now, we're going to do something else, 
one more exercise. Again we should keep this off the, 
the tapes because ...  

BREAK IN TAPE 

Ross: Brother _____ or Brother Orion, which do you 
prefer? 

Audience: Brother Orion.  

Ross: Brother Orion, come up. Let me mike you.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Let me give you my mike. No, take this one so 
your hands free. Now, Brother Orion is quite an 
interesting guy. When did you come to the first 
seminar in Cancun this last year or Chicago? 

Brother Orion: One year ago. That's right.  

Ross: Right? 

Brother Orion: That's right. You want me to tell you 
what happened after that seminar? That two days 
afterward? 

Ross: Yeah, here's what I want you to talk about. Talk 
about your initial, talk about that ...  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Ross: I don't want you to talk about this. I want you 
to take them from start to finish, from when you first 
meet a woman, to specific, what specifically you say, 
all the way to the point where she, you do the initial 
closing. Okay? 

Brother Orion: That could take an hour.  

Ross: Can you teach for an hour?  

Brother Orion: You bet I can.  

Ross: All right. I want you to do it ...  

Brother Orion: But I'm going to tell you, I'm going to 
focus mainly, like you said, on, on openings and 
closings.  

Ross: Openings and closings.  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: So you know, and then I'm going to come back 
and I want to talk about, someone throw me a, what 
did we, did I misplace all those things already? 

Mark: Markers? 

Ross: Marker. I want to talk about context. What 
context to use which patterns in. Context, so, let's say 
you've already met her. Just meeting, in person, 
_____ , would that be useful?  

Audience: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: You bet.  

Ross: So we, so we could lay out to you which, what 
to do with each context? Yes? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: But, I want you now to give, now here's what I 
want Brother Orion to talk. He has a different style of 
doing this, he's taken speed seduction and adapted it 
in the field to his own unique personality, his own 
unique needs, want he wants, what he likes, so I want 
you to talk _____ about what happened as soon as 
you left that seminar. And then, _____ let's give a big 
hand for Brother Orion.  

Audience: Applause 

Brother Orion: Thank you. Alright. Alright. Well, I 
want, I want to let you know, a few of you guys were 
there, right after the seminar about a year ago, when 
we went across the street, you remember Yates, to the 
TGIF and there was that cute girl sitting at the end 
bar? We're all thinking about going over and talking 
to her? I just jumped right into it. You know, a lot of 
the lines I first thought were corny, you start to say 
them and you get these great responses. And I, you 
know, it's sort of like marketing. If you've got a 
marketing letter that works, you know, why are you 
going to change it? Why are you going to try, you 
know, besides tweaking it a little bit, why are you 
going to try throw it out and throw somethin g new in? 
If it works, I'll use it a hundred times. No problem. You 

background image

 

102

know, just because you've used it on a hundred 
different women doesn't mean that this woman knows 
that, you know, its ever been said before to anyone. 
And even if she does, part of what you do in the intro 
is you set a context for the whole conversation. Now, 
some people talk a lot about, sort of like an 
environmental pace, where you say, "Ah, isn't it 
beautiful weather here" or we're both here at this 
restaurant and you talk about the environment around 
you. Now that's a great way to get into a friendly 
conversation, but it's a shitty way to start a 
seduction. I think. It works for some people, but for 
me I want to let the person know, at least to a certain 
extent, what I'm about from the very beginning and a 
line is great to do that. So I went up to her, I said 
something about her just being a shining example of 
genetic perfection. And she was loving it, she had 
three guy friends who were sitting down the bar but I 
had her attention wrapped, started giving her a 
massage. She started to have a couple of drinks, a few 
drinks, and I knew, I knew she was going to be 
drinking so "I don't want to talk to a girl when she's 
drinking.” You know, I knew she was going to have a 
few more drinks. I wanted to get out of there, close, I 
got a date to meet her, a time, an address.  

Ross: All right, Ben, you need to, you know, I'm sorry, 
Orion.  

Brother Orion: Yes.  

Ross: Orion. Brother Orion. Orion, so we can cut that.  

Brother Orion: ... was a shining examp le of genetic 
perfection and I had to come over and tell you that.  

Ross: Say it the way you would say it if she were 
actually here.  

Brother Orion: I said, okay, I went up to her and I said, 
"Amy, ...  

?: _____ , music on.  

Brother Orion: Cut, okay.  

Ross: Cut.  

Brother Orion: I went up to her, I went up to this girl 
in this bar right after the seminar, this was half an 
hour after the seminar was over, this gorgeous six 
foot tall, very slender girl with a stylish hair cut, and I 
went up to her and I said, "Pardon me, I have just got 
to tell you, you are a shining example of genetic 
perfection.” She said, "Thank you.” I said, "You 
know, have you ever had your handwriting 
analyzed?" And for anybody who hasn't seen this, 
this is your, you ever see the movie WILLIE 
WONKA? Where they have the golden ticket? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: The handwriting analysis deck is your 
golden ticket to getting laid, I'm telling you guys. And 
it does more than that. It makes the whole much more 
interesting, it makes a learning experience for you. 
You have a lot of fun doing it.  

And I, I have adapted it some to, including patterns 
while I actually do the handwriting analysis.  

Ross: Okay. So what specifically did you say when 
you closed her?  

Brother Orion: So, okay, then I went through the 
handwriting analysis. Now the reason I want to talk 
about openings and closings is that, is most of the 
weekend is structured to learning how to do these 
patterns, how to talk to women, and I figure once you 
get a, this skillset down, that, the meat of it, you 
know, the center of it will, will be stuff that you can 
do. You can, you can riff on these themes, you can 
use the memorized patterns, which I absolutely do 
and I recommend, but it's the openings and the 
closings that are really going to set the context and 
close the deal. And, so when I close the deal, I said to 
her, "You know, I would love to have a chance to get 
to talk to you another time when there aren't so many 
distractions and, " you know, something along the 
lines of "get to know the inner you is as beautiful as 
the outer one.” And she said, ...  

Ross: Now, that sounds like a compliment but is, it is, 
it's also a challenge.  

Brother Orion: It Is a challenge. That's right. And I'll 
tell you, a lot of these, a lot of these pickup lines I 
hear them straight out of Ross' mouth and I think I'm 
going to go out and try this out and see what 
response it gets. The patterns, the same way. I don't 
care if it's not my original words. If it works, if it gets a 
response, you know, why should  I have to reinvent 
the wheel when you've done so much work to make 
stuff that really works straight out of the box.  

Ross: Well, the other thing is pioneers wind up with 
arrows in their backs.  

Brother Orion: That's right. But there's things I'm 
willing to try and pioneer, you know. I will, I will try 
things that are new and, and I've been trying a lot of 
things new with closes but I'm going to get into, it's 
just, more recently since last year. She got, okay, so 
this was, what we got a meeting for Wednesday. 
Tuesday night I went out to the same coffee shop I 
was supposed to meet her at, 1: 30 at the morning, in 
the morning, coffee shop closes at 2: 00. This 
gorgeous girl comes up, I had to try this line, I said, I

said, "Pardon me, forgive me for interrupting you. I'm 
sure that I've seen you before. I remember it now. I 
was reading a book on angels and it had your face on 
the cover.” And she backed away a moment. And I 
thought oh, I blew it, you know, last chance to talk to 
a girl tonight. And then she moved forward and said, 
"Thank you.” I said, "Have you ever had your 
handwriting analyzed?" She said, "No.” I said, "I'll tell 
you what. Why don't we sit down for a cup of coffee? 
Half an hour later, sure enough, the coffee shop is 
closing, but I had already done these patterns on her, 
the blamo pattern, the bj pattern, I'd really gotten her 
going. I'd started doing a massage on her in the coffee 
shop. And I said, "Listen, if I were to ask you back to 
my place, would you come with me?" Thank you very 
much, Major Mark. And she did and within two hours 
...  

Ross: "If I were to ask you, if I were to ...” Do you 
hear the weasel phrase? That, write that down on a, 
do you have, Orion, Orion, cut. Orion, write that 
down, Orion ...  

Brother Orion: I don't write very well.  

Ross: Write that down "if I were to ask you, if I were 
to ...” Do you see the weasel phrase there? Do you 
see how it's beginning "If I were to ask you back to 
my place, would you come with me?" 

Audience: Response from audience, laughter.  

Ross: A lot better than "You want to come back to my 
place?" 

Brother Orion; So, what I want to add to this, this is 
the, this is the, at the time it was the best-looking girl I 
had been with. She had a gorgeous body, she was a 
really lovely, wonderful person to spend a couple of 
hours with.  

Ross: Response from Ross Brother Orion: Would you 
come with me back to my place - I should write this 
down - to my place ...  

Ross: So you got her back to your place and then 
what? 

Brother Orion: And then, I, I basically got right into 
giving her a massage and while I'm giving her 
massage, I'm running patterns on her, I'm reading her 
my poems, ...  

Audience: Where did you give her the massage? 

Brother Orion: On my bed.  

Audience: On your bet 

Brother Orion: On my bed.  

Audience: Oh, on your bed.  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Audience: Laughter. What part of her body? 

Brother Orion: Oh, on her back, on her back. Yeah.  

Audience: On her back.  

Brother Orion: You know, one of the things that I 
think I don't necessarily know that it, oh, in, in the 
restaurant, I'll massage her shoulders in the coffee 
shop. I think it might, there might be a value, there's 
different ways to play this, to massage and lay back. 
Don't get sexual while you're massaging her. Give her 
massage, give her a chance to just feel good and that 
you're not coming on to her and then go in for it. 
There's other ways to do it. If you're, if you're getting 
a really strong response, you can go directly physical 
without that.  

Ross: Like she turns over and takes off her shirt and 
says, "Would you do my front?" 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Green light.  

Brother Orion: Green light. Or if she,  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: If she gives you this look afterwards 
with glazed eyes and slightly puffy lower lip and that 
just looks like, ummm, that look you love to get, you 
know. So within two hours of meeting her, bam, we're 
going at it.  

Ross: Now ...  

Brother Orion: Wednesday ...  

Ross: Now, hang on. Did she give, offer any verbal 
resistance as you were going at it.  

Brother Orion: This particular one, no. That, at, at the 
Palo Alto seminar, that was a very interesting case of, 
of some verbal resistance that I continued to 
overcome because she had obviously wanted, she, a 
lot of times a woman will want you to expand her 
model of the world enough so that she can do what 
she really wants to do.  

Ross: So resistance is not really resistance, it's a 
quest, it's a request for assistance in surrendering to 
you.  

Brother Orion: And, and that's something I've really 
notice with the kind of women that I wouldn't before 
have approached, these sorority girl types, the girls 
who have a lot money ... Like last night when I was 

background image

 

104

talking to girls who were out for, they were going after 
the professional hockey guys who were in the bar 
that we were in. And these were girls who were after 
that particular _____ type of guy. But when I got 
them going, man, they just wanted reasons that they 
could step outside their model of the world and have 
the kinds of experiences that they wanted to have, 
and have the kind of gift that I could offer them. And, 
and, and Brother Metaman saw that, you know, after 
I'd been _____ this girl in front of her boyfriend, you 
know, sitting close to her with my hand on her 
shoulder, I walked away because she couldn't meet 
with me because of her boyfriend, that's fine, but she 
came later on to find me, with her friend, so that I 
would talk to her some more. And she was the hottest 
girl in the bar.  

?: Do me, do me is what she said.  

Brother Orion: That's night. Do me, do me.  

Ross: But he said something very interesting. He said 
often times a woman wants to be able to expand the 
range of what she can experience. She doesn't know 
how so ...  

Brother Orion: That's right.  

Ross: your job through a seducer is to lead her into 
that place ...  

Brother Orion: That's right,  

Ross: where she finds, to her astonishment, that she 
begins to create a new opening ...  

Brother Orion: That's right.  

Ross: for new experiences.  

Brother Orion: She needs some help, she needs some 
help receiving the gift that I have to give her. I really 
believe that.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: And, they, Wednesday night the girl, I 
thought she wasn't going to show up, she was maybe 
five minutes late, sure enough, she showed up, I did 
the patterns on her, I asked her back to my place, I 
said, "I want to read you some poetry but I left it back 
at my house.” Boom, again within two hours ... So this 
was, you know, within a few days of the seminar, two 
different girls who were just absolutely gorgeous ...  

Ross: Now, now, if you would ...  

Brother Orion: Please.  

Ross: Have you ever heard this kind of thing where 
she's says, "This is happening too fast?" What is 

your response when you hear that? "This is 
happening too fast.” 

Brother Orion: Well initially, I, I actually change the 
rate that I move at. I physically change, not 
necessarily the rate that I move at. I mean, not 
necessarily that I come on to her, but the rate that I 
physically move at. And I back off a little bit, and then 
I keep going. And you know I accept that she says 
that, I can, I can, you know, without even necessarily 
challenging her verbally, I can just keep going. I can 
back up a little bit. Cause if it's happening too fast 
that means she wants it to happen.  

Ross: Yes. Yes. And I think what she's really, what 
they're really saying in that case is, "Help me to feel 
more comfortable with this.” 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: It's not that it's happening too fast, it's that it's 
the comfort is not sufficiently there.  

Brother Orion: Right. And you've gotta be 
understanding of that. And the other thing is, if 
they're saying that, it's largely because they're 
thinking, "What would my friends be saying?" You've 
gotta really think about, a lot about this. When I was 
talking to this girl who was the hottest girl in the bar, I 
was saying to her, "You know, you love to dance, 
people love to watch you dance, people get jealous of 
your energy, a lot of women are real jealous with you 
...” All these things pace, you know, the experience 
that she has and that keep her from having the kind of 
intimacy she wants to have. I think, I think a lot of the, 
you know, the women I wouldn't have approached 
awhile ago before because of what you see on the 
surface of them. But when you communicate in this 
way with them, you get in touch with the kind of 
woman that you want to hang out with anyway.  

Ross: And this is a very important point, something 
that Major Mark taught me. Actually, he, when we 
were in, I'm getting old, when we were in, where were 
we? Hawaii. When we were in Hawaii and Major Mark 
was doing his, his thing on business, he made a very 
important point. He said, "Forget about the fact that 
person has something that you really want.” 

Brother Orion: Uh hmm.  

Ross: "Instead, pay attention to the predictable 
structures inside their mind that you can use to get 
what you want.” Now that means it doesn't matter. 
Guys have said, "Ross, what about really beautiful 
women? Does this work on them?" I said, "What 
difference does, does that make? She still has an 
unconscious mind. She's still a woman.” As Mark 

background image

 

105

would say, what did you say about really beautiful 
women? You said, "Being beautiful, don't hold her 
birth defect against her?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Being exceptionally beautiful is like she has a 
birth defect, so 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: don't punish her for it.  

Major Mark: She's had to struggle with it all her life 
and the compassionate thing to do is just let it go, act 
as though it doesn't even exist.  

Brother Orion: Right. And, and she has had to 
struggle it all, all of her life. I mean, beautiful women 
have had different experiences in life. And so it's 
something to realize. Of course this stuff works on 
them. It direct, communicates with their unconscious, 
it communicates with what they want to experience, 
and what they're held back from because of the way 
that the, that the world treats them for being beautiful, 
which is a little bit different. So I try to focus on, 
myself, on really beautiful women, on approaching 
them and how they operate in the world. But you bet 
it works on them. I think it works better on them.  

Ross: Take it from me. Being exceptionally great 
looking is not always an advantage.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Orion: And I'll tell you ...  

Ross: It's the price that we pay.  

Audience: Part of the handicap.  

Brother Orion: Part of the reason why is because 
women are used to being hit on. Look, they're used to 
it. You're not doing something alien to them. You're 
going up to them and talking to them. You're doing it 
in a, in a totally different and much more wonderful 
and amazing way, you know, when you get, when 
you, especially when you get really good at this. But 
even when you just use the lines, memorized, you 
know, you're complimenting them, you're giving them 
a nice feeling. And you, and they're used to it. 
They're, beautiful women especially are used to being 
hit on a lot. So you're not doing something that's 
foreign to them, if you're doing something that's okay.  

Ross: Brother Orion, would you ...  

Brother Orion: Please. Ross: If I could ...  

Brother Orion: yes.  

Ross: Brother Orion, Brother Orion, we can insert that. 
Brother Orion. Could you talk about some of the, your 
other lines that you use. Your shining examples ...  

Brother Orion: I'm, I'm going to get into that ...  

Ross: Okay.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Ross: Okay. I'm sorry. Go.  

Brother Orion: Some of the, some of the lines I like to 
use are, recently I've been just skipping the lines 
sometimes. I'll go up to someone and I'll, and if they're 
writing, I'll go, "Oh, oh, is that your writing?" Dah.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: "Why, yes ... ... Have you ever had 
that analyzed? There's something really interesting 
about you. Would you like me to analyze your 
handwriting?" Or, you know, I've, or this line that you 
say about, y ou know, "If you can spare a little bit of 
time I'll tell you secrets about yourself that even your 
best friends don't know. And I get to discover if 
you're the kind of person I want to get to know 
better.” 

Ross: Yes 

Brother Orion: Go ahead.  

Audience: Do you find there's some example, or some 
benefit to asking obvious question that you're certain 
to get a yes answer from, like is this your 
handwriting? 

Brother Orion: Sure, there's, there's, there's absolutely 
some benefit in that. I don't want to get stuck in it, 
you know. There's the old sales courses that talk 
about the yes set. You want to get someone saying, 
"Yes.” "Is this your name?" "Yes ... ... Is this your 
address?" "Yes.” There's definitely a benefit to that.  

Ross: Are you annoyed by my questions? Yes.  

Brother Orion: Exactly. Exactly. In and of itself, by 
itself, it's not a very powerful question, but you can 
also ask those kinds of things unconsciously. You 
can, say, questions they don't actually have to 
answer out loud. You know, they're, but, yeah, that 
does help. Especially, you know, if you're trying to 
get rapport with them at the very beginning. And I 
think rapport is very important. So, I'll talk a woman, 
and I'll say some lines like, "Pardon me, forgive me for 
interrupting you.” And I must have used this 
hundreds of times. ”But I just have got to tell you, 
you are absolutely stunning, drop dead gorgeous 
beautiful and I, I had to take a chance to get to know 

background image

 

106

you. My name's Ben.” 

Ross: That's so great. That's so 

Brother Orion: God dammit. My name's Orion.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Do you want to do the whole thing over?  

Brother Orion: Feeling schizophrenic today here. My 
name's Orion. Now, another thing I want to talk about 
is, I do want to talk a little bit about rapport. I have 
seen some guys who are utterly, totally go for it, 
unbelievable, they'll hit up on women way before I 
will, and they don't bother to get rapport with them. 
They go up to them, they stand in their face, they say, 
they deliver the line, they might use great tonality, but 
physically, they're way off. Especially, you, you get a 
lot of big guys doing this. There was one guy over six 
feet tall, bald guy, would come up in people, you 
know, lean into their space and it's just like, you know 
what? He had good skills but, you kn ow, you have to 
be respectful of someone's space. So it's great to do 
the predator but what you do is, you do the predator, 
you, you know, you get that, that fierceness in your 
attitude to go up and talk to them and then you stand 
back and you say what you want say from, from, not 
necessarily a far physical distance, but from a 
physical posture that's more, less invasive.  

?: This is too advanced to _____ , but one of the 
things when people talk about personal space ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: A lot of people wonder what determines personal 
space.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: Well, what we found out what determines a lot of 
people's personal space is the distance that they 
normally put their pictures up when they visualize.  

Brother Orion: Right. Right, yeah. You step in 
people's pictures if you get close to them. That's 
absolutely true.  

Ross: The other thing, the other thing to keep in mind 
and you, you're going to address it ...  

Brother Orion: Yes.  

Ross: We'll cut it, but ...  

Brother Orion: Please.  

Ross: But, when you approach someone, do not 
approach like this, stay there, don't move.  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay. If you walk straight up to someone like 
this, this is a threat.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: They don't know whether they're going to flee, 
fight, fuck or ...  

Brother Orion: Angles.  

Ross: Or appease. Okay. You want to approach at a 45 
degree angle so they're seeing you peripherally.  

Brother On on: Uh hmmin.  

Ross: Okay? This is friendly.  

Brother Orion: Right 

Ross: Now face me. This is not, this is a challenge, ...  

Brother Orion: Right 

Ross: Like I'm going to get in your face and so ...  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: If you're going approach, one of the things that 
will increase your success, do not come, or, or if 
they're, stand and fa ce the window ...  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

 

Ross: Okay? Don't come-up like this. Hey, you know, 
it's like, okay? The best thing you can do 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Position it so it's at a 45 degree angle so they 
can see you, they can pick up the motion, see you 
peripherally, and you're in, you know, stop like here.  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: If you're going to come straight out ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: on someone, that's an attack.  

Brother Orion: And it does have to do with how 
physically large of a person you are as well. You 
really have to take your own size into consideration.  

Major Mark: If I could just add something.  

Brother Orion: Please 

Major Mark: You mentioned something really quickly 
in passing, which is you say, come up, be predatory, 
and then back off? Okay? Well, have you ever been 
around a woman and a very large cat at the same time, 
like when they're looking at tigers, lions, leopards, 
whatever? They're fascinated by this. Okay? Does 

background image

 

107

this mean that they want this animal leaping out of the 
cage ripping them to shreds? No. Okay. The 
fascinating thing about a predator is the realization 
that this potentially dangerous but not now, not here.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Mai . or Mark: Okay. It's like recognizing danger and 
feeling safety at the same time. Okay. It's recognizing 
this is a very bad boy, but I'm feeling pretty good 
about it. Hmmm.  

Brother Orion: And that has a lot to do with your 
state that you get in before you go out to do this 
stuff. I'll sit in my car before I go into a coffee shop 
and get myself in a state. I'll run through the 
unstoppable confidence exercises.  

Ross: I'm sorry. He did it to me again. Because now 
I'm spinning a pattern based on what he just said.  

Major Mark: Yep, yeah.  

Brother Orion: Cool.  

Ross: "Do you, did you, you ever gone to the zoo and 
look at a big cat or predator. Do you ever watch 
people watching predatory cats? I think the real 
appeal of the cat is to note that this is something 
really dangerous, really powerful, but not right now. 
At the moment, you feel totally safe with this, but you 
know at the right moment, all that coiled power can be 
unleashed and directed right at you. Almost like 
you're something for them to eat.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother On on: Cool.  

Ross: "And what is that like inside when you walk the 
line between danger and safety, danger and safety? 
And you feel the tug between the two forces deep on 
the inside such that it opens up an entirely different 
personality inside? A personality begins to emerge 
and come forth. A personality that goes, ummm, I bet 
you I could pet that tiger and make it roll over and 
purr for me and only for me, ummm.” I'm riffing on 
this, I'm making ...  

Brother Orion: Cool.  

Ross: it up on the spot. But see, he talks, I hear 
patterns, he's a pattern generator.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm sorry.  

Brother Orion: That's okay.  

Major Mark: That was excellent. You didn't work in 
the raspy tongue thing.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter and cheers. I'm not 
worthy.  

Brother Orion: So cool. There's a lot, there's a lot of 
lines that work. And the reason I like lines, I don't 
always use them, but the reason I like them you have 
it worked out ahead of time. If you see someone out 
of the comer of your eye and you want to jump to it, 
you got, you know, it's like, it's like in TERMINATOR, 
when he's got that little display up ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: I have one. BBBBBBBB. Fuck you 
asshole.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: I have one and before I go out and sarge, I run 
through six different possible responses before I even 
walk out the door.  

Brother Orion: Yep. Yep.  

Ross: So when I see, I lock on and I know, I know 
what choices I have available. Just like a fighter pilot 
in a modem cockpit, he has to have situational 
awareness. He has so many different weapons 
systems t hat nowadays that don't have dials; they 
have video display terminals that pop up. It shows 
the status of each weapon and they even give you a 
little cone, it's like represented in red, to tell you if the 
target's within the, within the range of that weapon. 
So you'll see here's the weapon, they'll have a little 
cone-shaped pattern to tell you if they're within 
missile range for that particular weapon. So you go, 
"Oh, I can't use that, I can't, oh, I can use this one and 
it's getting to the point I can use that one.” I'll show 
you mine on after, later on in the afternoon. Go ahead.  

Brother Orion: BBBBB. I have an intuition about you. 
You are very visual. You make images very vividly in 
your mind.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: You have the lines worked out so you 
don't have to think about them, you don't have to 
think about them and anybody who knows anything 
about science which, somehow, you got a lot of those 
people at your seminars.  

Ross: Yes 

Brother Orion: You have control groups. When you 
do science, you have control groups. You control for 
the factors to see what's working. You might 
approach the same kind of girls, I love, I'm giving it 
away here, but I love college campuses. I mean, you 
get the, you get the same age, the same socio, 

background image

 

108

socioeconomic group, you get the same, you can go 
for, I'm only going to talk to five foot six blondes 
today. I mean, you can really control it. And then, ...  

?: Smorgasbord.  

Brother Orion: Smorgasbord. And then you have a 
particular line or a few lines you use and you go and 
try them again and again and again. You set out with 
that outcome. You're not going out, "Gee I'm think I'm 
going to go for a stroll in the park and if I happen to 
meet a woman ...” And then you'll go out and you 
think, "I'm going to go out and for three hours, I'm 
just going to use these techniques, I'm just going to 
try this line, I'm just going to talk to them and if goes 
for more than half an hour, I'm going to make a date 
for later.” Something, but get out there and try it. say, 
"I'm going to make 200 glow today.” Okay? 

?: 200? 

Brother Orion: You can do it! Eight hours on a college 
campus, how could you not talk to 200 women? I 
mean, you know, when you do, when you do 
marketing, how, how, what are, what's the percentage 
of return you get? You know, two, five percent? Not 
with your killer marketing, of course. But, you know, 
most of, most mail order stuff, you know, you're 
getting these low percentages.  

?: And most mail order houses, in, to break even is 
one percent.  

Brother Orion: One percent? Is that right? 

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Wow, wow.  

Ross: But, but you're always getting something cause 
you're always getting feedback and learning and 
getting more confident.  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: Every, you, you, so there's not a situation 
where you don't get some positive stroke out of it.  

Brother Orion: Yep. And I'm not saying to have 
everything you have, you gotta say canned. But 
when you know what you're going to say, you can 
think about other things. Because one of the real 
amazing things about a lot of what NLP does is it 
forces you to pay attention to the person in front you.  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Orion: You've gotta pay attention to how 
they're communicating. To get rapport, when I talk 
about rapport, I'm talking mainly about matching and 
mirroring their, they way that they stand, their 

posture. You can match her pretty closely. I mean, 
obviously these techniques aren't as powerful as the 
language patterns and some of the other skills, but it's 
important to be in rapport, use the same voice, general 
voice tone, but of course, it'll lead into a more 
hypnotic, you know, more seductive voice tone. Use 
the same posture. And you're able to pay attention to 
these things cause you're not thinking about the next 
word out of your mouth. Yo u know, and when an 
actor's up on stage, they're not trying to remember 
their lines by that point, they remember their, they're 
feeling the emotions.  

Ross: Now, Ben, you, you said something about tone. 
Kim's going to come tomorrow and teach us how to 
improve our voice and our tonality. But I want to talk 
a little bit about it cause ...  

Brother Orion: Please 

Ross: One of the things I've noticed about you is, you 
don't do this thing where you really lean on the 
commands, like it's important to feel horny, horny. 
You tend to ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It seems to me that when you speak to women 
...  

Brother Orion: Echo, I'm bad.  

Ross: When you speak to women, you have an 
overall tonality that's hypnotic. Your overall tonality, 
no matter what you said, it's a little quieter, a little 
softer, a little more here than it is here ...  

Brother Orion: yep 

Ross: Which is ...  

Brother Orion: And I, and, and what's interesting that 
I've started doing is, I do fractionate. I do talk about, I 
want to make a distinction between me and all the 
other chumps out there. And I'll say, you know, "You 
know, it's so interesting to be having a conversation 
like this cause sometimes you talk to someone and 
they could be talking about their car or their job and 
it's so boring, but sometimes you start to think about 
those other things.” And of course, Ross brought up 
embedded commands. For anybody who doesn't 
know an embedded command, you take a short 
phrase, in, in the, in the tense of a command, you 
know, feel really horny, get really turned on, pause, 
drop your tonality, pause, it embeds it, it 
communicates directly with the unconscious mind. It's 
a short, short version of what an embedded command 
does.

Ross: But what he's doing there is shifting his tone.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: He talks about normal guys, he goes ...  

Brother Orion: That's right.  

Ross: Now the normal guys, but then there are the 
other people ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: And, now, let me ask you a question, … 

Brother Orion: Please.  

Ross: cause I know there's a question. I'm, I'm playing 
ventriloquist dummy here and they're ...  

Brother Orion: Go for it.  

Ross: operating my mouth. Hmmm, I don't know if I 
like that image.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Urn, um, um, um, the question I have for you is, 
well don't some women notice, don't women, some 
women say, "Hey, you sure have a funny voice. 
You're talking quietly. What's up with ... ? " 

Brother Orion: They say, what they say is, "You're 
good.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: In that tonality.  

Ross: 'Mat's what they say to me.  

Brother Orion: What's up with that? 

Ross: That's what they say to you, "You're good, 
you're really good.” I'll give you a story.  

Brother Orion: Please.  

Ross: I was sitting in, I was, this is how, we, we 
interrupt each other and that's okay. I was sitting at 
California Pizza Kitchen, this really hot looking black 
actress, singer, dancer, whatever, sits down next to 
me and I said, "That's a really great coat. Where did 
you get it?" One of my famous lines, "Where did you 
get that?" Sh e said, "Oh, my boyfriend bought it for 
me. In fact, I didn't even have to go with him. I just 
sent him out shopping and he knows what to buy.” I 
said, "Oh really? So in other words, he knows how to 
please the culturally programmed woman instead of 
the natural woman?" And she looked at me, she said, 
"Ooo, you're good, you're really good.” 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: I said, "Won't it be wonderful if she recognizes 

it's just going to keep getting better and better and 
better?" Shit. ”Who are you?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And then I went into what I do, but, go ahead.  

Brother Orion: Cool. A few things I want to cover on 
intros before I move on, and I've covered a lot here. 
You might have to back the tape up and listen to 
again because I went through some thin gs pretty 
quickly without going into detail about them. And 
that's, one of the things is that, you, that some of the 
lines, the patterns are structured really well so you 
don't have to think about the structure. It takes a 
pretty good degree of skill to get to the level where 
you can build patterns that are exquisitely formed. So, 
you do spend them, the middle time talking, you 
know, both in memorized patterns, if you can 
memorize a few patterns, it'll help you out, but also, 
you know, talking generally, but when you throw 
those memorized patterns in there, they're all prepared 
and ready to go, just ready to be shot out. And then 
it's trial and error. It's really, when you use, you know, 
lines, it is trial and error. You're, you, you're seeing 
what works and what doesn't work, and it's 
experimental, you know, when, when you step out of 
being emotionally connected to every response you 
get from a woman. Well, even if you are emotionally 
connected to it, you get so much positive responses, 
you know, cause you're coming from a positive place. 
You're, you're really hoping to make the woman feel 
good.  

Ross: The mindset that you should take on is, did you 
see, I'm sorry, did you see the movie THE RIGHT 
STUFF? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: Who has not rented that movie? Who h as not 
seen THE RIGHT STUFF? Rent it and watch it. You 
want to have the night stuff. Their whole thing is that 
they want to see how far they can push it.  

Brother Orion: Let me, let me get through this section 
and take questions on intros and then I'll move on to 
closes. I don't want to spend a lot time answering 
questions, just simply because I have a lot a material I 
want to get through.  

Ross: Go for it.  

Brother Orion: The other thing is your, is your 
outcome, that you want to have an outcome in mind. I 
mean, go out there, and your outcome could be to, to, 
you know, make 20 women smile. That could be a 
great outcome. Your outcome, I think, you know, a 

background image

great outcome to have is just to have fun. You know, 
if you're going out and you have the outcome of 
having fun, but you also should have an outcome, I 
think, you know, if you leave your house. Actually go 
out and use the skills and meet women. I mean, I don't 
think you should just have an outcome, outcome of 
having a nice afternoon. You know, if this is what you 
really want to do, you should set aside a period of 
time and really focus on it. And you should, you can 
also have, you know, an outcome of getting results. I 
want to get this far with someone. It's part of the way 
that you can plan ahead is, you can, you know, plan 
for the following day. What, what's my outcome, what 
do I want to learn tomorrow, what do I want to plan 
out, you know, for memorizing or practicing or for 
building my state? And, and have a lot of fun with it, 
that, the whole introduction, the whole idea. I also like 
partial introductions where you just go up to a woman 
and you say, "I have just got to tell you, I love your 
shoes, you're really stylish, and you have great 
energy.” And she'll say, "Thanks.” And I might even 
say, "Have a nice day.” You know, and walk off. Part, 
and but, I trick myself This is cool. I trick myself I 
actually think to myself, you know what? This is 
what's been happening with these really beautiful 
sorority type, you know, athletic, rich women who I 
just didn't think I have a lot in common with or I'm 
really going to get on that well with. I go up to them 
and I think I'm just going to go make her feel good 
just so I can get used to talking to beautiful women. 
So that it becomes part of my experience and my 
everyday life is I talk to beautiful women. Tens. I just 
do it. It doesn't make a big deal. And it, it increases, 
you know, the way other people see you. It increases 
your believability. When you're talking to beautiful 
women, you know, psychological studies show that 
you're move believable, and you're perceived as more 
believable by the people around you. So I'll go up and 
I'll just say that, but then when I get to the part of 
"Have a nice day" a lot times, they won't let go of my 
hand. They want to talk with me. They want to know 
more of where I'm coming from. And part of it was 
because, you know, that might see somehow that, 
that I'm just there to make them feel good, and I can 
walk away if they like. But that's not the best way. If 
you actually want to go furt her, keep going, keep 
going, and keep going and keep going. Just because 
there's a pause in the conversation, doesn't mean you 
have to walk away. Just because you, she's not 
responding doesn't mean you have to walk away. If it 
looks like she's listening and taking in what you're 
saying, she might just be like going crazy inside of her 
mind and not, and not giving you real vivid visual 
signs. Especially before you build up the acuity to 

notice what some of the signs are. So, having 
wrapped up that section of intros, does anybody 
have any questions? I'm just going to take a couple, 
but let's go.  

Audience: Well, first off, you keep talking about the 
sorority girls and it sounds so familiar to them. The 
movie LOVE' POTION NUMBER 9 where ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah 

Audience: you'll help me understand ...  

Brother Orion: I haven't seen it.  

Audience: the power ...  

Brother Orion: But I've heard of it.  

Audience: _____ college campuses ...  

Brother Orion: Right 

Audience: sorority scene. Anyway, also, you're 
talking about the believability, what do you mean by 
that, that Studies show that you're ...  

Brother Orion: Oh, well, there, there have been 
psychological studies that show if you, if, if You'll, if, 
if two people look at someone, right, and, and they're 
looking to see if they're believable, maybe they're 
hearing a recording on a phone, and they look at a 
picture of who they're supposed to be talking to, and 
if the picture is a guy with a beautiful woman and it's 
the guy talking, no matter what the guy looks like, if 
it's a beautiful woman who's with him in the picture, 
right, he's more believable. If you're around beautiful 
women in your life, if you are, you and she have a 
higher status in society. This is the, this is the, you 
know, the down and dirty way to get alpha male 
status.  

Ross: Why do you think I'm giving I want to sleep 
with copies of PLAYBOY magazine, with the article 
about me in it? Because the first thing they do is turn 
to the centerfold and the other pictures and go, 
"Wow, look at her, look at her. He must be something. 
He's in the magazine with all these nude girls; 
therefore, he's with all these nude girls. Da da da da.” 
Plus my trainer's absolutely fabulously babe-a-licious. 
Cause I work out with her in the gym, all the beautiful 
women in the gym will talk to me.  

Brother Orion: That's night.  

Ross: "Oh yeah. You're that guy who hangs out with 
Molly.” Well, I pay her to train me, that's ...  

Brother Orion: And as much as I think desensitization 
is not the way to get over fear is, you know, ...  

background image

 

111

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: It does help over a time, you know. If 
you have a fear and you're going out and talking to 
them all the time, you teach your mind that you can 
do that, that it's part of your everyday experience. Did 
you have a comment? 

Audience: I just wanted to add a quick little 
validation. I've only been playing with this stuff for a 
couple of months, but, when I use something like 
"You're a shining example of genetic perfection" and I 
just stand back for a second? Probably a good 50% of 
the time, they'd say, "What's your name?" 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Audience: They put their hand out and they ask, they 
introduce themselves to me.  

Brother Orion: Right. It's a great line. And, and, I don't 
say it to women who aren't. I say other lines, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: I don't. I don't. I don't. I, I say it to 
women who are and I say other lines to women who 
aren't. Those are great ...  

Ross: You can adapt it. If you see an extremely 
athletic woman, I'll say, "Excuse me, has anyone ever 
told you you're a shining example of physiological 
perfection?" 

Brother Orion: Oooh. Or athletic perfection? 

Ross: I've never tried that one but I have said 
physiological perfection.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. So, go ahead.  

Audience: You mentioned the grapho-deck earlier. 
Now, do you carry that with you and pull it out and 
use it ...  

Brother Orion: No. I don't. I don't. A lot of people like 
to do that kind of thing and the reason is, even if 
you've gotten to a level where you don't, you 
memorize it, what you can do is, you can step back 
from it. You can say, "The cards say, the cards tell 
you, ...”  

Audience: So it's repeating what ...  

Brother Orion: "the cards tell me, " so you're, you're, 
you can give authenticity to an expert in the cards 
without having to say, "I'm the expert, I know.” And if 
the challenge and say, "I don't believe it, " you go, 
"Yeah, those cards.” Or if they, ...  

Ross: They're easily memorized.  

Brother Orion: you know, they say the really do 
believe it, you can step in and say ...  

Ross: They're easily memorized. I, you, you'll get all ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: _____  

Brother Orion: But even when you've them 
memorized, you can carry them around with you if 
you like. Yeah, so. John? 

John: Is there any advantage to carrying them with 
you? 

Yates?: If you can touch her and hand her the card 
and she's handing it back to you so that natural 
touching is taking place with the cards.  

Brother Orion: Right. Right. I don't though. I don't 
carry them around.  

Yates: You don't really need them, but I mean, there is 
some advantages of having them.  

Brother Orion: John? 

John: I guess this, this still gets me as the, how do 
you maintain your sense of sincerity when you've 
done a pattern a hundred times? 

Brother Orion: Because it, because, if I have done a 
pattern a hundred times, I have gone through the 
motion, emotions of the pattern at least a hundred 
times plus all the times that I went through to it to 
memorize, I mean, "Have you ever felt an incredible 
connection like maybe as you're there, " and every 
time I say it, you cannot say the words without 
experiencing some amount of the emotions. And the 
more that you experience them, the more that you can 
feel them. And so it is sincere, it's absolutely sincere. 
Even if I didn't write it, I believe it.  

Major Mark: YOU can't say it without feeling emotion. 
My sense is there are guys in the room who see 
patterns as I say them without necessarily being 
connected with the emotion.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Major Mark: Okay? Now, were, one of the additional 
antenna that women have is they have got a terrific 
bullshit detector, especially when it comes to men. 
Okay? And if you come up and you lie to her face, 
well guess what? She's not going to respond 
favorably. Okay? We say this over and over and over 
again. We talk about you must go first.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Major Mark: This is, this doesn't just mean experiment 

background image

 

112

with all _____ the states, take yourself into trance, 
and all this kind of stuff, but it also means that if 
you're talking about an emotion, you've got to be 
familiar with that that you're describing.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Major Mark: That you must feel it. Now, the good 
news is as you feel and as you describe it, it's not a 
matter of how do I maintain my sincerity, you're just 
talking, you are actually doing it. And that's what 
they respond to.  

Ross: Now, let me say this. You don't want to have 
the full response that she's going to have. Just 
enough of it to guide you.  

background image

 

113

Tape 6 – Side 1 

 

Yates: This is Side 11 of the Ross Jeffries Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: Now, let me say this. You don't have the full 
response that she's going to have. Just enough of it 
to guide you. So, I'll, we're going to do an exercise 
later in the weekend where I'll show you how to 
briefly step into any emotion, have just a little of it, 
just enough to keep you on track so that your words 
are sincere, instead of it being just memorized script 
that no relation to what you believe. And this is why I 
say, eventually, to get really powerful with this, you 
want to find patterns that reflect a theme that's deep, 
passionate meaning to you. The reason why I'm better 
with this if I'm blatant and blunt about it, is, cause 
what my work is a deep, passionate concern to me.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Ross: When I talk to women about what I do and I 
talk to about what I teach the guys and what I try to 
get across and what my challenges are, I'm not 
kidding them. This made me much more effective and 
powerful with this to just flat out "I teach hypnosis 
and seduction.” And to talk about what I teach and 
why it's important to me, and of course I'm weaving 
pattern language all throughout there. But I'm talking 
about something of sincere importance to me.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. I, I now would add this. When it 
comes to sincerity and integrity, what, what we have 
here is a roomful of people who have spent their good 
money and taken their good time to learn how to make 
women beautiful, you know, and how to make them 
feel absolutely wonderful and experience what it is to 
be, you know, human and feel incredible emotions 
and feelings. We've, you know, and I've spent a lot 
time studying it. Now my integrity in that is that I 
apply it to making people feel really good in a way 
that's in their own best interest. And if it's not, I walk 
away from it. You know, I encourage everybody to 
have that attitude because women have a bullshit 
detector, they have an asshole detector that makes 
the bullshit detector look like Stone Age technology.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: I'm telling you. They can tell assholes, 
people who are out to hurt them because they haven't 
resolved their own situations. We have an incredibly 
powerful skillset here and if you need to apply it to 
yourself first, before you start applying it to 

everybody, I encourage you t o do that.  

Ross: Yes. And see, and this is very important to see. 
You could come in here on the first morning thinking 
speed seduction is something I'm going to learn to 
say to women. Well, that's not what it's about. Speed 
seduction is about learning to think about the world 
and think about people in a certain way, so that your 
words reflect who you are as a person. So, yes, you 
should memorize patterns as an example of the kind 
the things, the kinds of communications that will 
touch women in a certain way. But as you're 
memorizing the patterns, also get a piece of that 
experience for yourself. Imagine someone is reading 
that pattern to you in a way that really touches you 
and get a piece of that feeling for yourself. To the 
extent that you step into an experience and have it for 
yourself when you talk about it, you're not reciting, 
you're revealing. I'll say it again. If you step into a 
pattern and really get some of the experience yourself, 
then when you talk about it you're reciting, you're 
revealing.  

Brother Orion: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: What is the difference, here we go, contrasting.  

Remember what's the difference between looking and 
truly seeing? What's the difference between someone 
who's interesting and someone who intriguing? 
What's the difference between reciting and revealing? 
Hold it. What's the difference between reciting and 
revealing? Now, it's okay to recite patterns, to 
memorize them. But you also want to put them 
through the filter of revealing in as much that you 
want to have a little bit of that experience for yourself. 
Just a wee bit. I'm not saying go all way to _____ but 
just have a little bit of it.  

Brother Orion: And also you can weave in between 
patterns and you weave patterns in between your 
speech or however you want to look at it, that relate 
back to the themes are being explored and the 
patterns that you've memorized.  

Ross: A lot of way I think is about the difference 
between things.  

Brother Orion: All right ...  

Ross: That's the, that's the difference between me. 
Right? 

Brother Orion: That's right. I think. Yeah, a difference 
between you, right. Okay, I'm going to move on to 
closes because I, I, I can't take too much time here 
today and I've got some things I want to let you guys 
know about.  

background image

 

114

Ross: Take as much time as you want to, by the way.  

Brother Orion: Oh, fantastic, fantastic. Well I will and 
I'll take ...  

Ross: I'm tired ...  

Brother Orion: some questions at the end of this. So, 
even _____ if people have some questions about 
intros that's great. But, there's other lines out there 
you can explore. We've said other lines during the 
weekend, so, I'm not going to go through a whole lot 
them. I am going to get into closes because, you 
know, let's say you've got the intro down, you've 
gotten rapport with them, you've done tons of 
patterns or whatever it takes and I keep going. I really 
keep going. I mean, if you, you think about, just a 
quick thing on memorizing. The average stage actor 
can, you know, memorize his part very rapidly for a, 
for a huge, I'm not going to say specifically, but, you 
know, hours of talking, monologues, and strange 
arcane forms of English. You can memorize these 
patterns; they're real. You know? I mean, this is, this 
is real experience. This is how things, how things 
work inside someone's mind. And it takes a little bit of 
time. There's different, you know, tools out there for 
memorizing but, by all means, do it. By all means 
memorize them, even if it's only so your unconscious 
can generalize. But I use them; I absolutely use them. 
And it comes down to the close. Okay, you've got her 
into the state you want her in, you know, it's time for 
whatever reason you've decided to, you know, to, to 
put the rubber to the road and see what's going to 
happen. What have you got to lose? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Did I say that? 

Ross: That, by the way, that, that's what Rex Sykes 
said about speed seduction.  

Brother Orion: That's right. Ross: He said speed 
seduction is the place in NLP where the rubber meets 
the road.  

Brother Orion: That's right. And do wear rubbers 
fellows. Okay. So, what have you got to lose at this 
point? Okay? I mean, relationships don't start for the 
most part with women, you know, being friends with 
guys and then eventually falling in love with them. It 
just doesn't work that way. That's why a lot of you 
need to get over that woman that you think that you 
seduce because you've been friends for so long. You 
know, it's like Major Mark says. We give you this 
brand new Ferrari and you drive it into the same old 
brick wall. You know? I, I, I'm sorry if I'm being harsh 
guys, but there's a lot of guys out there who have one 

particular person in mind who they've been friends 
with for a long time and they want to seduce. Well, 
there's a hell of a lot more good women out there to 
meet and when you've got these tools you can meet 
the good part of the good women and that's 
something you might never get to with those other 
women. So, what have you got to lose? You know? 
What, you're going to have coffee with her for 
another couple of weeks, talk, sit down and talk to 
her, try to think what you're going to come up with to 
say. What have you got to lose? Go for it. See if she's 
game, you know? I mean, the only thing you've got, 
you know, you've got to lose is nothing. The 
opportunity, but not even that. I mean, cause you can 
close more than once. She says no, you keep going, 
you make another try at it, you know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: So, I'm, I'm going to say a first, a 
couple of linguistic closes and then I'm going to talk 
more into strategies for closing. One is, is that Brother 
Kamal on our troubleshooter's tapes revealed this 
thing he's been working with for a long time called 
what would have to happen and listed her process. I 
love it. I heard that and I lit up. What would have to 
happen for us t o get together for coffee? What would 
have to happen for us to laugh over a cup of coffee? 

Ross: What steps would we have to take? 

Brother Orion: What steps would we have to take. 
Brother Coby, what would have to happen for you to 
convince your wondrous self to join me for a cup of 
coffee? 

Ross: Yeah, Brother Coby says what would a guy 
have to do to convince your wondrous self to have a 
cup of coffee with me? 

Brother Orion: Ah, I love it.  

Ross: To go for a cup of coffee, is that what you say? 

Brother Orion: Convince your ... Not just to convince 
herself, to convince her wondrous self. Now, are you 
saying that wondrous part of her or are you saying to 
convince that wondrous person who she is? 
Beautiful, exactly, yeah, it's beautiful. Those 
ambiguities, they have to process it ...  

Ross: Rather than saying "Who you like to go out 
sometime or can I have your phone number?" 

Brother Orion: Right. That's, that part of the reason 
that Ross uses so many ambiguities is the 
Unconscious mind processes all possible meanings. 
So, the other thing is that a lot of these closes have 
presuppositions in it; presuppositions just being 

background image

 

115

linguistic structures that have to be accepted in order 
for it to make sense. So, you know, what, so when 
you say something like "When would be a good time 
for me to call you?" what does that presume? Can 
somebody say what's it going ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Brother Orion: What is it? 

Audience: There might be a bad time.  

Brother Orion: There might, no it doesn't mean that 
there may be a bad, well, that does, okay. It does, but 
when would be a good time presumes that you're 
going to call her. And that she ...  

Audience: And that there will be a good time.  

Brother Orion: And that there will be a good time ...  

Audience: She's going to g ive you her phone number.  

Brother Orion: And that she's going to give you her 
phone number. You know, a lot of times you say 
things like that, or I say, "Have you got a pen?" And 
if she says, "Yes" she's got a pen, she's on her way to 
actually writing down her phone number.  

Ross: And also when you say something like "What 
steps would we have to take to make sure we get a 
chance to talk again, " ...  

Brother Orion: I should get back to that.  

Ross: When she answer the questions and gives you 
her phone numb er, that sets up the expectation that 
giving the phone number, she's only giving it to you 
because she wants you to call.  

Brother Orion: Exactly.  

Ross: Rather than just giving it to you to get you out 
of the way.  

Brother Orion: Hey, can I have your phone number ...  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Orion: There's no further step.  

Ross: Yeah 

Brother Orion: And, and it's, it's the one time when 
I've started to actually be comfortable with women's 
phone numbers. Cause if that's their process, that you 
go up to someone and you say, you know, "What has 
to happen ...” well, "I have to give you my phone 
number.” And very rarely do they say, and they do 
say it sometimes, "Oh, just give me your phone 
number.” And then what, I'm sorry, can I hear your 
response to that when t hey ask you for your phone 
number? Is that okay? Where you say something 

along the lines of, "Sure, I'll give you ...” This is 
beautiful.  

?: Basically, if someone asks me for my phone 
number, I, I'm to the point now where I've given it out 
enough times and not gotten calls back where I say ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: I need to get their phone number, that's my mindset, 
so I'll say, "Oh, sure I'll give you my phone number, 
but I also need to get yours from you.” And it's like as 
I'm handing my phone numb er to them, I put that 
reciprocity in place.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: So I say, "Because I'm real serious about getting 
together with you and I want to make sure we get 
together.” 

Brother Orion: And if they say no to that again? Your 
response? Do you have another good response? 

?: I don't even remember what it was.  

Brother Orion: It was something along the lines, along 
the lines, "Well, well, if you want to get together, 
great.” 

?: Oh, yeah. If they, if they won't give me their phone 
number at all, I'll, sometimes I'll even take mine back 
from them and I'll say ...  

Brother Orion: Laughing  

?: "You know, no is okay. If you don't want to give me 
your phone number, no is okay, but I'm real serious.” 

Ross: I take my card 

Brother Orion: "Oh, no, no, " but you, but you say, "If 
you want to get together, that, that's great, but I'm not 
just going to give you my number.” 

Ross: And I've also did, I did this with this h. b. at the 
CPK _____ . She asked for my number. I said, "You're 
not going to call me. I know you're not going to call 
me.” She said, "I'll call you.” I said, "You're not going 
to call.” She said, "Give me your card.” And I gave it 
to her and I said, and I took it back out of her hand, 
and said, "Nah, you're not going to call me.” Well, she 
called me.  

Brother Orion: Yep. Yep.  

Ross: Long distance. She was, she, she sings for 
somebody, she's in someone's band. She called me 
from the road in Nashville, Tennessee.  

Brother Orion: Ross has started working with some 
great challenge patterns.  

background image

 

116

Ross: Yeah. As long as we're going  

Brother Orion: Which really, really set you up. So, 
once you get their phone number, with that particular 
close, what has to happen? "Oh, here's my number.” 
"Great. When's a good time to call?" Or, "Great. I'll tell 
you what. When wo uld be a good time to get 
together?" Don't stop. Because you've got their 
phone number, you can go for more. You know? 
You've got, you've got one piece, you can go for the 
rest. ”Great. When, when do you want to get 
together?" or "When should I give you a call about 
getting together?" 

Ross: The other aspect of this is, here's another 
reason why you shouldn't just say, "Can I have your 
phone number?" What if the only step that she needs 
is, what if, in her mind, she's thinking, "Let's go back 
to my place right now" and you ask, "Can I have your 
phone number?" 

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Ross: You've interrupted yourself.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely. And you get how excited 
she is. ”Oh, nothing.” They'll, I've had that answer. 
”What would have to happen for us to get together?" 
"Oh, nothing.” "Great.” I, then I get to set the 
direction. ”Great, let's together, let's get together 
tomorrow, let's go right now, let's meet, you know, I'll 
give you a call ...” Whatever, it's up to you. ”Nothing 
would have to happen.” I hear it a lot Set a time. Try 
to find out when they're going call. You don't want to 
get into this technological warfare of caller 69, dot, 
star 69, you know, which calls somebody back, star 67 
which blocks caller ID. All this kind of ...  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Bogus game. I'm serious, you know. 
It's ridiculous and then sitting there and, "Oh, is she 
going to call me back?" Or, "Does she know that I 
called?" And all this kind of stuff.  

Ross: She's like you need a wild weasel phantom 
aircraft for the electronic jamming equipment just to 
talk to her.  

Brother Orion: Right. I, I, I did this on this, on this girl 
not so long ago and she said, I said, you know, I said, 
"What has to happen?" "Well, here's my phone 
number.” She said, "I'm off Monday and Friday.” I 
said, "Great.” I already have her phone number. ”Why 
don't we get together Monday.” So I'm going to get 
together with her this Monday. So I made the plan, 
you know, and I just did it. And the other thing I 
should say, just going back real quickly to intros, is 

it's not necessarily bad for women to see you hitting 
on other women. It can actually be to your benefit. 
They know you're not afraid of beautiful women and 
you're talking to a woman who's hotter than she is 
and making her smile and laugh and giving her a 
massage. That can be a real green light.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: So, I think it's, I think to always close. 
Always close; it's good practice. You know? And if a 
woman's attractive and interesting enough for you to 
be talking to her, why not? You know, get her phone 
number, see what happens. Even if it doesn't seem like 
you're getting the kind of response ...  

Ross: Now, now, while we're on this, let me say 
something, let me deal with the challenge you'll often 
hear. ”I have a boyfriend.” Now oftentimes they're 
just saying that just to give token resistance. They're 
really saying, "Hey listen. I want to be with you but I 
don't want you to think I'm disloyal and you're going 
to find out anyway eventually, so, I'm just doing my 
duty letting you know I do have one. And now that 
I've done my duty, let's go big boy.” 

Brother Orion: Yep. That's true. Absolutely. 
Absolutely. Ross: Most objections are not really 
objections, they're just requests for help. Here's a 
belief I want to give you that I forgot to give you 
earlier. Thank you Ben ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: for being patient with me. The belief is that 
every woman wants to be seduced by you, she just 
doesn't necessarily know how.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Ross: Every woman wants to be seduced by you, she 
just doesn't necessarily know how. And objections 
are, in fact, just requests for help.  

Brother Orion: Yep. And along the lines of 
boyfriends, you know, you don't know what her 
relationship is with this guy. You know, I have, there's 
this girl staying at my apartment with my roommate 
right now. And he tells me, he's like, he's like, "Yeah, 
she's got boyfriend.” And I said, "Oh really?" You 
know, "Yeah, but he hasn't called her in months and 
he left town without saying anything.” So he's not 
going to come on to this girl who's staying in his 
room and you saw her. She's pretty cute.  

Ross: Yeah, she's got a nice little, hot little thin body.  

Brother Orion: He's not going to hit on her because 
"She's got a boyfriend.” I mean ...

Ross: A borefriend? 

Brother Orion: he didn't call her and ... a borefriend? 

Ross: "How long you been going out your 
borefriend?" 

Brother Orion: That's right.  

Ross: My response is, "Oh, borefriend? Does your 
borefriend tell you he loves you all the time or just 
when he senses you're really bored with him? 

Brother Orion: Yep. And you don't know, right,  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Brother Orion: Oh, oh, this is a good one, this is a 
good one.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Brother Orion: Boyfriends; I used this last night. 
Boyfriends. ”Boyfriends are so easy to forget when 
they're not around.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: So I give you that again. ”Borefriend? Does 
your borefriend tell you he loves you all the time or 
only when he senses you're bored with him?" 

Brother Orion: Look, you don't have a right to make 
that decision for a woman. You know? 

Ross: laughs 

Brother Orion: I'm, you don't, you don't. She has a 
boyfriend. What, are you going to be insulting 
enough to tell her that she doesn't have the freedom 
to talk to you and to have a wonderful experience with 
you just because she's got some guy that, that, you 
know, they have what's a nominalization called 
boyfriend/girlfriend? 

Ross: Or, or I'll say something like, "Boyfriend?" I'll 
go, "Wow, that great. He must be the kind of man 
who really knows how to touch the person you are 
deep inside.” 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: "I'm sure he's not just someone you're keeping 
around till you find someone better.” 

Brother Orion: Right, right.  

Ross: No, then I'll nod my head like this.  

Brother Orion: And you can definitely approach 
women who are with guys. They're not necessarily 
with their boyfriends.  

Ross: And I'll nod my head like this and if I see her go 

like this me - he's outta there.  

Brother Orion & Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: So, I'll give you that response again. 
”Boyfriend? That's great. He must be the kind of man 
who can touch you, who are deep inside, instead of 
just someone you're keeping around until you find 
someone better.” 

Brother Orion: Or, "It's so rare to find somebody who 
meets all of your own special, unique values.” Major 
Mark.  

Major Mark: Orion's right. It's incredibly arrogant of 
you to decide all the reasons why she must be ready 
and willing reject you. Okay? Now, a lot guys fall into 
this trap because they spent a lot of time and energy 
thinking up all the reasons why she must be upset 
with your kind of guy. Now, she must be the sort of 
woman who would never, ever go for you or she's one 
who's going to be impossibly loyal to this guy's 
treating her like crap. Okay? Let her make up her own 
mind; act as though women were people.  

Brother Orion: That's right.  

Major Mark: Okay? Brother Orion: And that's a lesson 
that that guys, a lot of guys need to learn.  

Ross: Another way to get past it since we're dealing 
with this boyfriend challenge is to say, I've had this 
work so many times, I say, "Boyfriend?" I'll go, "Hey, 
that's all right. I can promise to control myself. I can't 
control how naturally and easily you'll find all your 
feelings changing for just, only the right reasons.” So 
you say, "Boyfriend?" 

Brother Orion: Nice.  

Ross: "That's okay. I can promise to control myself I 
can't control how naturally and easily you'll find all 
your feelings changing for all the right reasons.” And 
they go, "Oooh.” That's always what I hear. Oooh.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Okay. ”That's all right. I can promise to control 
myself. I can't promise, I can't control how naturally 
and easily you'll find all your feelings changing for all 
the right reasons ... Oooh.” 

Brother Orion: Now I want to get into physical closes. 
When I mean that, I mean getting, getting the 
physical contact with them. It's different than closing 
for phone number or a date or another meeting. This 
is the real deal.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Brother Orion: We go, we go back here,  

background image

 

118

Audience: Response from audience.  

Brother Orion: We go back here, what did you say? 
What's that? 

Ross: I recognize that sound.  

Brother Orion: We go back here to the, to the, for our 
first clue to the father of modem hypnosis, Dr. Milton 
Erickson, who said, who was asked once, you know, 
how, how a person can know when to kiss a girl. And 
he said, "When the, when her lower lip engorges with 
blood and sticks out a little bit, she wants to be 
kissed.” You know? It's a great, it really is a great 
physical cue to look for. I, that doggie dinner bowl 
look is a great one to look for ...  

Ross: I've seen some serious nipple erections through 
some very thick blouses.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: On the women I was talking to ...  

Ross: No, I'm not, not trying to be vulgar here, I'm 
seriously, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm not trying to be vulgar or crude, this little 18 
year old waitress I ran into ...  

Brother Orion: That's true.  

Ross: Gave me a dirty joke to tell. So I ran back in 
before my car was pulled up and told her and she 
went, voom voom.  

Brother Orion: And, and not every woman that you 
get hot and horny is going to want to kiss you, 
unfortunately, cause this would be a lot easier if it, if it 
worked that way. Cause it's really easy when you 
have the skills to get woman hot and horny, and it's a 
little bit more challenging to actually get to the point 
of physically closing.  

Ross: Here's a body posture. Whenever I've seen it, a 
woman has fucked me. Whenever.  

Brother Orion: Wow.  

Ross: When she's in the car, okay, hold that for now. 
Okay, you're in the driver's seat and she's over here in 
the right hand seat. If she tucks her legs up like that 
and turns towards you and she's got her legs tucked 
up like this, this totally turned toward you like this, so 
I'm sort of like got my legs tucked up underneath me, 
she's turned like this, you're going to get some.  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: If the legs are up off the floor and they're 
tucked under her on the seat ...  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: So her feet are not touching the car floor at all, 
instead she's got her legs tucked up under her and 
she's turning towards the side facing you, sort of 
sideways like this, you're going to get some.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Brother Orion: Yes, I have 

Ross: Have you ever not gotten laid when that was 
happening? 

Brother Orion: I ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Brother Orion: I don't think so. I haven't seen it very 
often.  

Ross: That's a very seriously ...  

Brother Orion: I've certainly seen it out ...  

Ross: You ever been in that posture with a guy? 

Brother Orion: I definitely see it with, it with women 
I've been sleeping with or in my car.  

Ross: Yeah. Extremely comfortable posture.  

?: Well, think about it. She's in this space where she 
has a 360 degree panoramic view ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: And she turns so that the only thing that is of 
interest to her is you.  

Brother Orion: Is you.  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Orion: And the other thing is, is when there 
are pauses in a conversation; now pauses in a 
conversation are okay. Again, fractionation, letting 
her integrate what you said, you can have not just 
pauses to create ...  

Ross: Does everyone understand fractionation? Some 
people may not ...  

Brother Orion: Right. Well, you said what it was 
earlier, so ...  

Ross: Say it again. Some people ... Brother Orion: 
Push the stop, rewind. Fractionation is you take 
someone into and out of trance, or yes, you could say 
into and out of different depths of trance. So you get 

background image

 

119

someone into a deep state, where they begin to focus 
on every word, and then you talk about how other 
conversations aren't like that, but then sometimes 
when you really listen ... So you take them in and out 
and it increases the depth of trance, very rapidly. Very 
rapidly. And also there's a pause that happens when a 
girl wants to kiss. She will stop talking; she will look 
right at you, and put her head forward a little bit, lean 
toward you, her focus fully on you and wait.  

Ross: And turn her face ...  

Brother Orion: Guys, fulfill your promise.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Please, don't get a, don't, don't, don't 
get a woman turned on and then wimp out at the last 
second. It's just not fair.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother 0nion: You know. God. I mean maybe, you 
know, maybe if she's like a, like a, a concert pianist 
and she's got really strong fingers, you know, to last 
her all night, you know, okay, you can do it with them. 
But the one, the one, some of them just don't have the 
manual dexterity to keep themselves happy the way 
that, that they're going to need to after this kind of 
patterning.  

Audience: Laughter. Do you do those _____ ? 

Ross: For enough batteries.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. Stop, rewind. Okay, I'm going to 
talk, cause I really don't know which, which clues? 

?: Don't worry about it.  

Brother Orion: Okay, yeah. Where there's a pause in 
the conversation, where she leans forward, sorry, 
where she leans forward, where she's focused totally 
on you and where she's waiting, she's deliberately not 
saying it. It's like, "Oh, my turn to talk?" You know? 
There's another linguistic way I set it up. I talk about 
kiss. ”Have you ever had a person give you a surprise 
kiss? Like maybe you're there and you're thinking 
about all the worries of the day or all the hassles or 
problems? And suddenly, a person can lean forward 
and look deep in your eyes, understand your distress 
and give you a kiss that sends an electric thrill 
throughout your spine, throughout your whole body 
and just lift you up like a bed of clouds. Do you feel 
that pleasure, that enjoyment of that kiss? You go 
into a space where it's just, you feel so good. And as 
you continue to let that happen, you can imagine six 
months from now reaching back to recapture the 
sweetness of that kiss.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: "And finding it just as fresh, farm fresh 
...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: "Imagine, as it is in this moment.” 

Ross: Yes.  

Audience: When, when you said like there's a pause 
and she's looking at you, even more specifically 
looking at your lips ...  

Brother Orion: Ooooh, nice, nice.  

Audience: I don't know ...  

Ross: You look at lips? 

Brother Orion: Yeah. She's looking at your lips.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Well, interestingly, dah, you're looking 
at her lips, too, to see if they're engorged with blood. 
That's cool.  

Audience: Guys do that, too, and I can tell usually.  

Brother Orion: Uh huh. Uh huh.  

?: You're sighting the target ...  

Ross: She has a lip on.  

Brother Orion: She has a lip on. Nice, nice, nice. So, so 
something along the lines of ...  

Audience: Responses from audience  

Brother Orion: I'm just going to run through it really 
quickly again so you guys can hear it one more time. 
Okay? And notice how similar it is to the first time I 
said it, I memorized this pattern. ”Has anyone ever 
given you a surprise kiss, like maybe as you're there, 
thinking about the worries and stress of your day, 
thinking about all the things that have happened? 
And suddenly a person can look deep into your eyes, 
understand your distress and take a chance with a 
surprise kiss that sends an electric thrill throughout 
your spine, throughout your body, that lifts you up 
like a bed of clouds and lets you feel that wondrous 
feeling. As you imagine a time in the future, it's like 
you can imagine a time in the future, say six months 
from now, reaching back to recapture the sweetness 
of that kiss and finding it just as fresh and magical as 
it is today. Cause that person was able to take a 
chance on you with a surprise kiss.” It'll set them up. 
Set them up and then knock them down.  

Audience: Laughter 

background image

 

120

Brother Orion: Okay? And knock them down. My 
god, if you say that kind of a pattern, kiss her 
afterwards ...  

Ross: Is this fair? Is this fair? Yes.  

Audience: Responses from audience. Absolutely.  

Brother Orion: What's not fair is not at least taking the 
chance. And I believe that, too. You know, a person, a 
person has to take a chance at that point, I think, And 
it's rigged. The game is rigged. You have to take a 
chance. Now women, and it's happened to a lot of 
guys I here, women will come on to you, will jump 
your bones, it happens, okay? Sorry. You know. This 
material might be outdated by other material. But, hey 
it doesn't happen a lot of the time and you got to take 
a chance. So, you, you can talk about kissing, you 
can talk about kissing in a lot of different ways. I think 
the blowjob pattern sets up those kinds of things that 
kiss.  

Ross: Now I'm going to show you a trick guys. 
Someone. asked about anchors. I'm going to show 
you a trick. Little Kim showed me this cause little Kim 
had it done to her by someone else. Here's an anchor I 
use. If I talk to a woman about sexual things, I'll make 
this face.  

Brother Orion: Like a rabbit.  

Ross: What I'm doing is I'm biting my lower lip.  

Brother Orion: Urn.  

Ross: So what, after I get the response from her, let's 
say I'm talking about the blowjob pattern and I see her 
getting hotter and hotter, I'll go ... And whenever I 
want her to go back into that state I'll just look at her 
and go ... I've been doing that to you, have you 
noticed? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: You are relentless.  

Ross: It's an easy thing to do. So you don't have to 
do all these touch anchors or just do a little facial 
expression,  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: I'm sorry.  

Brother Orion: One thing I forgot to say is that the, is 
that the, the blammo pattern also sets you up for 
closes pretty good. And when I've been able to get 
the blammo pattern off and have them really get into 
it, my success rate is very, very high.  

Ross: Now, by the way. These patterns, we're going 

to demonstrate all these patterns. In fact, he's such a 
good teacher, if, with your, with your cooperation ...  

Brother Orion: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: I'm going to have you back later in the 
weekend, to teach some of these patterns.  

Brother Orion: Great. I'd love to. And I can teach them 
very quickly, which might be helpful.  

Ross: Yeah. I think, in fact, I think we may train you at 
some point to, to be one of our front s eminar guys, go 
out into the boondocks and do seminars for us? What 
do you think?  

Brother Orion: I could have fun.  

Ross: He's pretty good, huh? 

Audience: Applause 

Brother Orion: Are the boondocks ready for me? 

Audience: Applause 

Ross: You know, like the Mormon missionaries? 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Who ride their bicycles with their ties ...  

Audience: Cheers from audience 

Ross: Who peddle into town, set up the tent, you 
know? 

Brother Orion: I have come to bring joy to, to the 
women of rural America.  

Audience: _____ Laughter 

Brother Orion: I'm on a mission. Hallelujah. Can I hear 
it? Hallelujah.  

?: _____ Central Asia with that _____ .  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Central Asia? 

Audience: Let the Mormons send him out.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Brother Orion: We are not the Mormons ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: We're going to start you out slow. You're going 
to Kosovo.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Oh god.  

background image

 

121

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: No, I'm not going to the Central, 
Central Asia. Enough with the Mormons. They don't 
need the whore man's to ... Physical close. Another 
brother used to work a lot with animals. Now, I 
haven't seen this movie the, what is it - THE HORSE 
WHISPERER? I really want to see it. There's some 
great ideas about this guy had about how to 
communicate with animals. But it's something that a 
lot of guys who are, who are raised on farms are like, 
"Yeah, of course, you know, you have to approach 
animals with respect to their space.” And you have 
to, you have to have a certain congruency. You have 
to, which means that your words and behavior match 
your action. Or match your, you know, your intention. 
Everything is lined up. So when you move towards a 
woman with congruency, you're not, you're not 
tentative, although test closes are good. You can 
move into her space to make a point. You can say, 
"God, at sometimes people come to really close to 
you, into your space and it feels really good.” Or you 
can just do it, to whisper to them, you can use their 
space around them and start to get comfortable and 
work with that.  

Ross: Here's a pattern, I'm coming up with it as he 
says it. He said personal space, I really, I immediately 
went into patternland. So you're there, back at your 
place or her place, and you're ready to test this to see 
if she's ready. You go, "You know where I think you 
learn a lot about people?" Have you heard this theme 
before? "You learn a lot by seeing what their personal 
space is and how that changes according to how 
comfortable they feel. Like you ever been with 
someone ...” point away from yourself You always, 
when you describe something you don't want her to 
experience with you, point away from yourself "You 
ever been with someone and you're not quite that 
comfortable and you don't want them that close? So, 
you let them know through your body language that 
you want them to stay a distance? But then, you ever 
been with someone and you just feel magnetically 
drawn to this person? You know you're going to get 
really close? And so, when they move into your 
space, it's like, hmmm, you want more, you want it 
closer and closer.” 

Brother Orion: Oooh.  

Ross: See how comfortable she is with you getting 
close to her. And if she's real comfortable, you go ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: "That could be a sign.” 

Brother Orion: You can describe the process as you 
do it.  

Ross: The best way to have someone undergo a 
process with you is to describe it.  

Brother Orion: Uh hmm.  

Ross: As part of an interesting topic about "Isn't it 
interesting how things happen.” "Aren't things 
interesting? You know what? You can learn a lot this 
way.” 

Brother Orion: And you can describe things as you're 
doing them.  

Ross: Right.  

Brother Orion: And that can intensify the actual 
experience they're having.  

Ross: And the other thing you can do is if she says, 
"We shouldn't be doing this" you describe what 
you're not doing as you're doing it. You go ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: "You're right. I shouldn't be lifting up your 
blouse ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "And licking your beautiful breasts. I'm not 
putting my finger down into your pants.” And, I'm 
serious. Have you done this before? 

Audience: Yes 

Brother Orion: You bet I have.  

Ross: Yeah, it works. Just say, "Exactly, you're right, 
I'm not, I should not be doing this. You should not be 
feeling the intense pleasure ...”  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Ross: Go ahead.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Let me go ahead, I am going ... 
So, moving, okay, using her personal space, testing 
her personal space, again, angles are good; 45 degree 
angle, 30 degree angle. Coming into her side you can 
kiss her ear, her cheek, you can, you don't have to go 
directly face-on to kiss her, her on the lips. It could be 
ballsy, but it can also be confrontational. So, you 
want to, you want to watch you're doing with space. 
You want to experiment with different things. And 
there's a certain amount of, even though you're 
tentative, you're moving at an angle, you're 
congruent. You know what you're doing. And you 
can also do things like brush the back of her hair, of 
her neck and say, "You know, the Japanese think that 

background image

 

122

the back of a woman's body is the most sensuous part 
of her. And I don't know if it's because of all those 
fine nerve endings.” I'm talking a little quickly here 
guys so you can get all the information.  

Ross: Ben, you can slow down. That just means the 
time on the tape, not the time you can talk.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Swap it over. Oh great, good to 
know. ”And I don't know if, if it's the most sensuous 
part of a woman's body because that's where the 
nerve endings are or if it's because they believe that's 
where the energy enters your body or if it's because 
of all those soft, fine hairs or because they think it's 
so attractive, you know, the low-cut kimonos where 
you see that beautiful back of a woman's neck.” And 
you can be brushing the back of her neck "Or maybe 
it's because you can't tell whether it's the soft brush 
of a person's fingers or the soft brush of their lips, the 
kiss, the touch of your tongue.” Now, a little bit 
underhanded here.  

Ross: It works. Is, I, I've done this one. Is reach out 
for a woman, just brush her, her cheek ...  

Brother Orion: Ummm.  

Ross: with the side of your hand. If she does this, 
she's ready.  

Brother Orion: Man, I learned that ...  

Ross: That's a real good one.  

Brother Orion: I learned that when I was in college 
from a 13-year-old kid. I was blown away. This kid 
said to me, "Hey, just go ahead and put your, " or, 
you know the other thing you can do is grab the back 
of their neck and put your hand underneath their ear. 
Cup it, yeah, very, very powerful. And if they've, if 
they're down with that ...  

Ross: _____  

Brother Orion: You know, so, so, no please, please. 
You actually, you put your thumb on the front of their 
ear, you put the rest, your forefingers cupped behind 
the back of their head, base of their skull. And you 
move them forward. Or if they're turned away from 
you, you can take one finger, brush it along the edge 
of their chin, and move it over to you. And if they're 
moving, they're following your lead, their lips are 
coming night to your lips, and boom.  

Ross: Another thing you do is, you take their head in 
your hands and you kiss the top of their forehead, 
you kiss them on the forehead, and then as you go to 
move, if, as you go to kiss their forehead they close 
their eyes and do this, you know they want more than 

a forehead kiss.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Brother Orion: Okay. There's another, there's some 
other things you can do here. And one of the really 
good ones is to g et right into massage. I think 
massage rocks. I want to learn more and more about it. 
I think it's worth learning about. Books out there, 
yeah, video tapes out there, classes out there. You 
know, classes at local adult education centers where 
you can take a class that's going to be mostly women 
and inexpensive.

Brother Orion: ... that you move. You carry tension in 
a, everybody who carries tension in a different way. 
And talk a little bit about the way she does carry 
tension in her body.  

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Brother Orion: It's physiological. And of course it 
why back, why shoulder rubs are one of the most 
popular places to massage. You, and you point, you 
say, "You carry tension and you store it right there.” 
And you lean over and you start to massage it. And 
they almost always let you. Now, this, the reason I 
love this, I love this, I love this, is that I can do it 
when I'm out at a coffee shop. She doesn't have to be 
home with me. And I can do it and they, I don't think 
they've ever said no. They might have let me go for 
ten or twenty seconds and then back off, but that's 
only once or twice, and I've done it a lot. They almost 
always let you give them a massage. You can have 
them close their eyes, you can do some really heavy 
trance stuff when they've got their eyes closed and 
you're massaging them. ”You know, some people 
think, some people, as they experience a massage and 
really feel the pleasure of a massage from someone 
who really knows how to give a wonderful massage 
cause they've trained s o well. They're able to feel a 
certain inside or associate a certain color with that 
warmth. So, for example, if you were to think of a color 
that you associate with the warmth of those relaxing, 
wonderful feeling, what color might you tell me? Red. 
And as  you see that red getting bigger and brighter 
and maybe even wrapping itself around you like a pair 
of warm but strong arms, some people can even allow 
those thoughts to just penetrate your and put that red

deep inside you.” Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, 
boom. And you light them up. You really, I mean, it is, 
it is super. It's one thing to give someone a massage 
and have them just sit there, even if you're a really 
good masseuse, but it's another thing to talk them 
about the experience and connect it up with all kinds 
of sexual thoughts, pleasurable feelings, intensity, the 
sound of your voice. All kinds of wonderful things 
that happen when you use massage effectively. Go 
ahead.  

?: Another thing about massage is, you can start to 
use breathing cause breathing is very powerful ...  

Brother Orion: Ummm 

?: as it changes states of the body. And what I've 
noticed with women as they're having some 
resistance, not to, not to the massage, but the 
resistance to relaxing the massage, is to start to coach 
them in breathing, such as to breathe ...  

Brother Orion: Ahhh.  

?: ... tense up and relax. And if you think about that 
breathing process, where else in the breathing 
process of breathing in, tensing and relaxing occur? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Let me get off, let me get off ...  

Brother Orion & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And say this. About half the time none of this 
would necessary, cause they're going to jump on you. 
Half the time, sex ...  

?: You're off of ...  

Ross: Are the microphones off?  

?: It was.  

Ross: Oh, I'm sorry. You're correct. I'm sorry. About 
half the time, none of this will be necessary cause 
they're going to jump on you. The first few times you 
do this and it happens, you may be so -surprised 
you're not going to be able to act on it. The famous 
story we like to tell is the guy who tried this on a 
woman and, at a church social. And they go out to 
the parking lot and she says, "I want you to fuck me 
right now.” He goes, "Huh?" 

Brother Orion & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: She says, "Put me on the hood of my car and 
fuck me right now.” He says, "But, but the pastor's 
going to be out any second.” She said, "I don't want 
to fuck the pastor, I want to fuck you.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And, and so she couldn't do it, so she starts 
going down on him, and he was so shocked, he 
couldn't have any physiological response. It's, it's 
fairly common that you're going to be so shocked the 
first time this works, you're going to go, "Ah, ah, ah, 
ah, ah.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And then you're going to think, "Oh my god, 
Ross was right.” 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: "Oh my god, Ross.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Was right.” 

Brother Orion: So, one thing I want to add to that ...  

Ross: Does this feel right to you? 

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Is just something, it's sort of random 
that came to me is that a lot of people are wondering, 
well, you know, wonder when they see somebody 
who's getting really good results, has he always been 
getting these kinds results before he got this material, 
is it his looks, is it how ... ? But I'm telling you, for 
myself, I was not getting the results before I had 
these skills that I'm getting now. Absolutely not. And 
I've seen it happen with a lot of people who are just 
not getting results. And they studied it and they 
applied  

themselves and they made a commitment to improve 
this part of your life, which is a really important part. 
And improve that part of a lot of women's lives. Or 
maybe just that one special one.  

?: That sacred space.  

Brother Orion: That sacred space inside. Progressive 
massage is really good because it, when you're out at 
the coffee shop and you're giving her a massage like 
this, you can start talking about, "Gosh, it's so much 
nicer to give someone a massage when they're lying 
down or, you know, I give really great full body 
massages" that kind of thing. Yes.  

Audience: Okay. You, you're in a relationship with a 
woman that's ...  

Brother Orion: Okay. That's sort of not what I'm 
talking about, but okay.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Audience: ... did you, did you move into quickly and 

background image

 

124

then you realized, you know, she's not your type, you 
don't like her that much. And, you know, how do you 
move out of that one? 

Brother Orion: You want a different kind of close.  

Audience: Damaging her.  

Brother Orion: You're asking about a different kind of 
close than I'm teaching here. But okay.  

Ross: I'll tell you what. That's an excellent question 
but it's ...  

Brother Orion: I'll, let me, let me just say a couple of 
things about it, then I'm move in, move out of it. I 
think you should find out that information before you 
get into a relationship with her. Okay? I really do. I 
think you should, that's why the handwriting analysis 
cards are great. I don't think you should get in 
relationships with people you don't want to be in 
relationships with. However, you can structure it and 
let somebody know in different ways how you want 
the relationship to go and what kind of experience ... 
Major Mark talks about, you know, having it 
structured as you're the person who's mad, bad and 
dangerous to be with, and who's not going to be 
there. You know? And, so it's, it's up to you what you 
communicate, but I think you have, you do have a 
responsibility to, to let somebody know ultimately, 
you know, what's, what your intention is. You know, 
in terms of, of what kind of relationship you want to 
have them. Especially with somebody who, that you 
start to get involved in because a lot of people are 
going to make assumptions if you don't tell them.  

?: The lock-it pattern.  

Major Mark: You have an obligation to be honest 
with them, you know, about who you are and what 
you're up to. And yet the obligation to respect them 
enough to allow them to make their own decision and 
to respect the decision they come to. Okay? Now the 
fact is, because women are people, they are a lot of 
them who are remarkably similar to us in their running 
around and they're looking for different levels of 
adventure at different types or different places in their 
life.  

Brother Orion: Yep. And I'm going to ask you also if 
you, if you don't mind to, to go through the lock-it 
pattern if you get some time to do that ...  

Major Mark: Sure 

Ross: That's what I want you to do, Major Mark, is do 
an hour or so on structuring your seductions so that 
you remain in control of the situation rather than meet 
some _____ .  

Major Mark: Okay, sure.  

Brother Orion: He, he, Major Mark has a pattern 
basically the lock-it pattern, which allows you to have 
closure to the, to the, to the relationship, to leave 
relationship and still let them have all those good 
feelings and resources that you've let them have like a 
treasure, like a gift, life a magic spell for them and 
carry around for the rest of their life.  

Ross: A quick answer though is the best way to avoid 
harming them or damaging them in your world is to 
never at any point do anything that is damaging to 
them. It's really that simple.  

Brother Orion: You don't seem convinced.  

Audience: Well, if you're not there and _____ the 
greatest thing that ever happened.  

Ross: Well, you're not responsible for everything that 
she thinks, feels, does, whatever, okay? Now, if you 
show her an aspect of masculinity, if show her a type 
of man that turns out to be something she's wanted, 
needed, dreamt of for a long time, it's not your 
responsibility to now hang around forever so that she 
can continue to have this.  

Brother Orion: Let me just say one more thing.  

Ross: It doesn't make sense.  

Brother Orion: Which is that, which is that if they've 
left behind the best thing that's ever happened to 
them, you know, well, is that such a bad thing? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Brother Orion: Well, I'm sorry, but I don't mean, I don't 
mean, I'm not saying whether they left or you left, but 
whether they had something that was wonderful and 
it was the best thing that's ever happened to them, 
they've learned something about what's possible. 
And it think that, that a lot of women have available 
to them resources to if they can't find the kind of 
person they want to be with to, to create change in 
people to have, women do it, project boyfriends, you 
know? I don't want to be somebody's project 
boyfriend anymore. But there are a lot of guys out 
there who are perfectly willing to get adapted into the 
kind of man that a girl wants him to be, wants him to 
be.  

Audience: Quick comment here. As far as damaging, I 
was very lucky early on when I was in a relationship I 
didn't want to be, was I was learning NLP and what I 
did is I literally just took the anchor that she had set 
to me and I set it to the concept of finding even more 
of what she was looking for in ways she hadn't even 

background image

 

125

thought of yet.  

Brother Orion: Yep. Yep.  

Audience: So that way she went from he's a great guy 
but what else is out there that I haven't considered 
and I haven't experienced? And so she started to get 
passionate off looking for that, that left me off the 
hook, I was still a great guy, and her life was 
improving.  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: Just because what she had with you doesn't 
mean that her ability to experience these kinds of 
feelings again in her life is over. In fact, that you 
structured it the right way, she'll draw the conclusion 
that she can experience this again in different and new 
and wonderful ways.  

Brother Orion: Yep. I, I want to move on ...  

Ross: Let's move on ...  

Brother Orion: Which is great that the invitation, you 
know, is, can often be something as simple as, you 
know, "Do you want to come back to my house for a 
poem? I write great poems.” "Do you want to come 
back to my place for a massage?" I don't say it like 
that, "Do you want to?" Bu t there's lots of ways to 
use presuppositions of "How much fun would you 
have coming back to my house for a massage?" Or 
you can take them by their hands at some point and 
lead them, if they're sitting on your couch, you can 
just absolutely reach out and g rab their hands and if 
they follow you, they're going to follow you.  

Ross: Ask them, "Is this something you're ready to 
act on?" 

Brother Orion: Oooh, "Is this something you're ready 
...” Yeah, that was a great one. Somebody said 
something about ...  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: No, first thing, express, they'll express that, , , 
"No, you know, I'm, I'm very attracted to you.” 

Brother Orion: "Is that, is this something you'd like ...”  

Ross: That's something _____ you want to act on. 
Now.  

Brother Orion: Oooh, right. Now. Keep going. You 
know, you can do things physically until she 
expresses that you don't want her to do them. If 
you're giving her a massage and she's letting you 
keep going, but, when she says stop, you stop. You 
absolutely stop.  

Ross: There's a difference between, "Ummm, don't, 
don't" and "DON'T.” Okay? Don't means you stop, 
but "Umm, ummm ...”  

Brother Orion: So, and, and women are not that 
responsive physically or, or verbally in terms of they 
can be really enjoying it, getting off on it, but they 
just don't feel comfortable expressing it, so they're 
going to let you keep going. I had this, I had this 
experience Just recently, something that Metaman 
and I have been working with is just going for it, you 
know, an initial talk and just, you know, starting to 
touch them in ways that turn them on and, you know, 
even if it's a crowded room, a lot of times they'll let 
you go for it. If it's feeling good and it fits in their, you 
know, value set ...  

Audience: _____ sparks off the guardrail.  

Brother Orion: Yep. Put the fun meter to the red line 
and make sparks off the guardrail.  

Major Mark: It's very erotic to, to experience the 
personal touch in a public place.  

Brother Orion: And if I, if I see a woman's got, got a 
_____ , got, has a, has, oh, physiological responses 
like goosebumps, I'll ratify them. Ratify another 
technical term. But if you, if you express that you 
recognize the physiological change in a woman that's 
an indication of trance or, or excitement, it intensifies 
it. ”Oh, oh, I notice those goosebumps. I love giving a 
woman goosebumps in public.” Those goosebumps 
get bigger quick, or "Oooh, you're shaking. Wow, you 
must really be enjoying this.” These kinds of things. 
You, you ratify the experience that you're getting. So, 
the other one that somebody just gave me this 
weekend, I, somebody's got to tell me who it was, who 
gave this, somebody's got to raise their hand, but 
"Let's go for a walk. Gee, where are we going to walk 
to?" You've got to give me five on that one. That's 
awesome. ”Where are we going to take a walk to?" 
"The cafe near my house.” "Hmm, we're going to take 
a walk.” Gee, we'll just start walking and walk to my 
house.  

?: What happened, what happened was like, I met 
this, this girl for coffee, I always have them meet me 
near my house.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: And, you know, I develop a rapport and everything 
is going really well. I say, you know, after, I said, 
"Let's go for a walk.” And I just walked her right back 
to my place.  

Brother Orion: Yep 

background image

 

126

?: I find that if you ask, you're opening yourself up to 
a problem.  

Brother Orion: And, I've, I've been hanging out with 
some guys, you know, who aren't into this stuff and, 
and I've been talking to girls and they say, "Man, you 
could have asked her back to her, back to your place, 
you know, like right then.” And I was like, "Really? I 
mean I got her phone number and the date.” But man, 
they're right. You know, a lot of the times if you ask 
them back to your place, you know, if you've been 
doing this stuff right, they're going to go for it. If, and 
especially if you structure it right, if you take them by 
the hand and, you know, and if you are having fun 
with it. And a lot of times you'll get some resistance 
and you can keep going. Just because they say, "No" 
you know, they might just be convincing themselves, 
they might just need some help. Okay? All right. Well 
a couple of people had questions.  

Ross: Dr. Yates has a comment.  

Brother Orion: Go.  

Yates: When you're talking about closing, what's your 
processes, all the ones that have _____ , great _____ 
at what a guy out in L. A. _____ . You know to, he 
met the girl and they went out to dinner and over 
dinner he says, you know, "What has to happen, you 
know, before us to, you know, get more intimate.” She 
says, "Well normally, you know, before I go to bed 
with a guy, " says, says, "I have to see him at least six 
times.” And he says, "Oooh, so if I go to the 
bathroom and come back, that's twice.” 

Ross/Brother Orion/Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Oh. Wow.  

Yates: And he, he saw her at work over the next 
couple of days and every time he saw her, he says, 
"That three times.” 

Audience: Laughter Yates: "That's four times.” 

Brother Orion: Wow.  

Yates: And she says, "And for you I might make an 
exception.” 

Audience: laughter.  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Ross: That kind of cocky, outrageous attitude, cocky, 
outrageous, engaging, outgoing.  

Brother Orion: Yep.  

Ross: We'll, we'll do an exercise with you.  

Brother Orion: One other thing is that, is that this 

stuff can often be fun with it, with another guy, you 
know, hanging out with another guy.  

 

Yates: This is the end of Side 11 of the Ross Jeffries 
Basic Speed Seduction Seminar.

Tape 6 – Side 2 

 

Yates: This is Side 12 of the Ross Jeffries Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar 

 

Brother Orion: One other thing is, is that this stuff can 
often be fun with it, with another guy, you know, 
hanging out with another guy, big groups of people 
you're not going to get a response, and when you 
want to do it, a lot of times it's all about going out on 
your own. You know? Not hanging out with other 
people or to impress your friends, but going out by 
yourself. And I recently had an experience when I was 
with, with Brother Kamal over at his place and we had 
a couple of girls there. One of them was not into the 
fact that I was getting as far with her friend as I was. 
She was very apprehensive about that whole 
situation. I find it very interesting, but her friend was 
really getting into it and like we were trying to be 
discreet, you know. She was getting turned on. I'm at 
the other end of the couch, her friend would lean 
forward and I'd move back. So anyway, I said, I 
whispered in her ear, "I'm going downstairs. I want 
you to come with me.” And I grabbed her hand and 
she let go. And so I just kept walking. I came back 
and I was cold. I just, you know, there's your space, 
there's my space. She went upstairs and she, she went 
upstairs and we were watching a videotape and there 
was a dog barking. And you know, we'd, we'd seen 
the whole place. Obviously, the TV has the dog on it. 
She goes, "Do you have a dog up here? Is there a dog 
up here?" There will be.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Okay? 

Ross: And now, there's a real interesting p. s. to this 
story. You wound up telling her what you did.  

Brother Orion: Yes.  

Ross: And what was her response? Remember that ...  

Brother Orion: Oh, god. She sent me a great e-mail. 
She loved, okay, first of all, she said to me at the end 
of the night, she said, "I have never even kissed a 
guy that I haven't known for at leas t six months.” 
Okay? She sends me an e-mail, okay, and her friend 
knew about the, knew about the article, the ROLLING 
STONE article, and, and, cause Kamal had given it to 
her. And her friend wouldn't tell her about it. So I 
figured why am I going to tell her about it. Her friend 
doesn't want to tell her, fine. But at the end,  

she wanted it, her friend wanted to give it to her, and 
eventually she traced it down and got it, which was 
great, I was going to send it to her. And she sent me 
an e-mail. I was wondering, you know, what kind of 
response is going to happen here. She sent me an 
email and she's, she's saying, "Wow, it was a great 
article. I really liked it.” She's saying things like, like, 
"You know, I was wondering if it was, you know, 
because of what, what you were saying because I 
think you're really a cool guy, but ...” And she started 
saying all these things about my personality like solid 
things about what I've done in my life, the kind of 
adventurous life I've lived. And saying, you know, 
"Even if it wasn't for this, I'd still find you really 
interesting and attractive.” She's not saying that that, 
that it didn't work on her, but she is saying, you 
know, she's, she's rationalizing, she's giving herself all 
these reasons to have the intense response that she 
had and it's really cool. And she says, and she says 
things like, things like, "Now, I don't mean to, you 
know, I don't mean to seem, I don't know, too ego, too 
egotistical or something, but I'd be, I'd love to have a 
chance to see you again.” It  was very flattering. Yeah, 
she's like, she's like almost self-deprecating in her, in 
her, you know, if, you know, "I don't mean to, I'm not 
the kind of woman, " what did she say? "I'm not the 
kind of woman who wants to entrap you" or 
something like that. Or you know, "tie you down, but 
it would just be wonderful to get together with you 
sometime.” 

Ross: "I'm not the sort of woman who would throw 
myself at you, but having said that ...”  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Audience: Laughter 

?: _____ I don't know if this is real or _____ your 
trance subject or something. Remember the name she 
used? 

Brother Orion: I don't think she said trance subjects, 
but ...  

?: It was a different name, it was really cute. She 
basically said, "You know, I know you're doing this to 
me, but I don't care because it feels ...”  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: " ... so good ...”  

Brother Orion: Right.  

?: " ... I'm going along for the ride.” 

Brother Orion: Exactly. Exactly. And the part that I 
loved is where, you know, she's she's just giving 

background image

 

128

herself all of the reasons to feel all the feelings that 
she feels. And she specifically says that she's not 
trying to tie me down or get me into a relationship. 
She just wants to see me again. Okay? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Brother Orion: How, how about if I get a rousing 
round of applause.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Arousing and arousing ...  

?: Arousing applause.  

Brother Orion: Aaah.  

Ross: Aaah, you're always playing. We want to make 
sure that we edit out the reference to the ROLLING 
STONE article because it'll confuse people as to when 
this set came out. Okay? What do I keep hearing? 
Beep, beep? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: What is beep, beep? 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Who's going beep, beep? 

Audience: Somebody's cell phone or battery's low.  

Ross: Okay, that's all right. That's not, I was just 
wondering what the hell that was.  

Audience: It's a time bomb. Responses from audience.  

Ross: Ah, I don't have one ...  

Audience: Yeah, I'm going to get one.  

Ross: Ah, still on the _____ , ROLLING STONE is still 
on the newsstands.  

?: Hold it, Ross. Library, library 

Audience: Responses from audience 

?: February 98? 

Ross: It was February and I think its issue 718.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Kate Winslet on the cover.  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: I don't want to get into it. They just ...  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Time? 

?: It took two hours.  

Ross: Okay. Well, let's take a 10 minute break.  

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Ross: Let me just say, I don't install anything into 
anyone. This is NLP mythology concerning _____ to 
intimidate you _____ . Someone said earlier that he 
was concerned that I installed something in someone 
that was not useful or against their values. Well let me 
just say, this is bullshit. This whole thing about 
installing things, this is what NLP trainers use to 
intimidate you into thinking, "You better not fuck with 
me or I'll install impotence or whatever, you know.” 
As a matter of fact, the only thing I can do is, any 
hypnotist can do, is structure opportunities for your 
unconscious to respond. If your unconscious doesn't 
like what I'm offering, guess what? It has no power to 
affect you in any way. If it does like it, it will pick it up 
and run with it. Okay? And also I know, one of the 
things about me is I don't offer a set of values for you 
to operate off of. All I do is put a set of tools out on 
the table. To the extent that they conflict with your 
values, don't pick them up. To the extent, the thing is 
you may not know how far you can go with it, so you 
don't know whether it conflicts or not. But I'm not 
attempting to tell you that you should use this to be, 
you know, a sexual shark, swimming to the waters of 
singledom, gobbling down every morsel you see. Nor 
am I telling you to find that one monogamous, happy 
relationship. All I'm saying is these are tools, go out 
and use them. Okay? Now, we're going to bring up 
Major Mark.  

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Major Mark is going to take you through the 
end of the day. Major Mark is going to go at n uclear 
warp speed so, oh, you had a question. Yes, ask.  

Audience: Well, two questions.  

Ross: Ask.  

Audience: Number one I wanted to ask you about 
setting up themes to get the pattern ...  

Ross: Uh huh. What specifically about that did you 
not understand? 

Audience: How to go about it.  

Ross: Okay. It's a process of asking myself questions. 
It's a process for you of asking yourself questions. 
Okay? Now the question you want to ask yourself is, 
you pick a topic and you say, "What's interesting to 
me about this?" Okay? That's the first question. You 

background image

 

129

write whatever answer you get down. And then you 
write, "How does that happen?" Then you write that 
down. And that answer to that question, the 
description of how that happens, is what you will use 
for your pattern. Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Now the next question you ask is, "What else is 
interesting to me about this?" And then you just run 
it through the same thing. ”How does that happen?" 
And you get another description. Do you get it? Does 
that make sense? Does it? I'm not hearing a strong, 
congruent yes. Does it make sense? 

Audience: What you're saying is first I pick a topic ...  

Ross: Yes.  

Audience: And then I'm supposed to go, "What is 
interesting about the topic?" 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: What do I find ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: that I ...  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: And I describe-the process ...  

Ross: The way you describe the process is by asking 
yourself the question, "How does that happen?" 
"How does that happen?" Okay? 

Audience: And I describe everything that I like about 
it.  

Ross: No, I didn't say like. You're confusion is with 
the word like. I didn't say like. I said, "How does that 
happen?" Okay? I'm not talking about preferences. 
This is not about getting people to decide whether 
they're going to make a choice or not. Okay? This is 
about discovering what a process is. Okay. Listen to 
me. Here's where your confusion is. You still think 
that I'm trying to give people reasons to do 
something. You still think that patterns are about 
coming up for reasons to convince someone to make 
a rational decision to do something you want them to 
do. That's not what it's about. When I describe 
something for you, what it does is, it installs a state. 
Now let's talk about this. Do you understand what I 
mean by state of mind? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: What do you think I mean by state of mind? 
Can you give me an example of a state of mind? 

Audience: It means ready to accept something.  

Ross: That's one state of mind. What would be 
another of mind? How about fascination? Is that a 
state of mind? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Sure. Okay. If I wanted you to be fascinated, I 
could give you reasons. I should go, "The reason you 
should be fascinated with me ...” What's your name? 

Audience: Amos.  

Ross: Amos. ”The reason you s hould be fascinated 
with me is what I'm going to tell you is really going to 
help you improve your life and you're going to get 
lots of women. So that's why you should be 
fascinated with me.” Okay? That's not what a pattern 
is. A pattern describes the process of how someone 
becomes fascinated. So I would say, instead of giving 
you reasons, trying to talk you into it, telling you 
what I like about it or what you should like about it. 
Instead, I'm going to describe how it happens. I'd say, 
"You know, you ever been totally fascinated with 
someone? You ever meet some and he continued to 
listen carefully and really look? It's as if the rest of the 
environment just disappears and your entire world 
becomes this face, this voice, this learning experience 
you're continuing to have. So that the more you just 
keep looking, Amos, it's almost as if the rest of the 
environment disappears itself and your entire world is 
what you're experiencing right now. And the more 
you continue to go into that place, all the way into 
that place, I find, in my experience, when I just let go, 
all the way, all the way deep inside.” Now, did you go 
into that state? 

Amos: Yes 

Ross: Did you go in because I gave you reasons to 
do it? Okay. So what you're misunderstanding was, 
you thought it was important to say, to ask, what you 
like about that. No, you want to describe the process. 
The question is how does that happen? You 
understand? Now is it cleared up? 

Amos: Yes 

Ross: Okay, good. We need to give him, for having 
the courage to ask a question, we need to give him 
some kind of prize. So, do you have THE 
UNSTOPPABLE CONFIDENCE tapes? 

Amos: Yes 

Ross: You do. Do you have Kim's SUPER TONALITY 
tape? 

Amos: No.

Ross: Okay, we'll give, give him Kim's SUPER 
TONALITY tape. I'll pay for it, Bunny, so you can get 
your commission. Okay. I meant it when I said ask 
questions; I meant it. Now what was your second 
question? Real quick cause Major Mark's chomping at 
the bit.  

Amos: Okay.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Amos: _____ visualization on the pyramid. Now I can 
see a  

pyramid but part of it was light, part of it was dark and 
it was absolutely no color.  

Ross: Okay. You want to change that real fast? It'll 
take me 30 seconds. May I cut into your time? Can 
you see the pyramid now?  

Amos: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. Put your eyes at a 45 degree angle. Look 
up, look, put your eyelids up at a 45 degree angle. 
Now you have it, your eyelids. Take a deep breath 
and with your lips blow the color into the pyramid. So 
see the color going into the pyramid with your breath. 
Inhale again. Now blow that color out through your 
breath into the pyramid. You notice how that begins 
to help? 

Amos: Yes. The side that's dark is getting lighter.  

Ross: Exactly. Okay. So learn to control your own 
dials. Okay. I'm going to bring up Major Mark. It's my 
honor and pleasure to bring up the person who has 
so influenced my thinking. You going to give him this 
one or mike him up, cause I'm going to sit down. It's 
his stage.  

Major Mark: Actually I prefer that one cause I live to 
wave ...  

Ross: Okay.  

Major Mark: around a lot.  

Ross: So let's ...  

Audience: Laughter 

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Audience: Applause 

Major Mark: You looked very good in tux.  

Ross: I looked good in my tux. Okay, ladies and 
gentlemen, Major Mark.  

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Major Mark: I always love these first parts of the 
presentations. You know, the wild applause, the 
screaming and all that, you know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay, okay. And now for something 
completely different. Okay, okay? What I want to talk 
about is something, this may have been touched on 
before, I don't know. I took a major nap yesterday, so 
I'm not entirely sure what went on before. But 
something that keeps coming up is the concept is 
how does this stuff work? Why does this stuff work? 
When will it work for me? I want to explain something 
that is both very, very simple and extremely powerful. 
Okay? And this is in line with what I do because I 
mentioned yesterday I'm really, really lazy. Okay? I'm 
also really, really impatient, okay? Everything I want, I 
want now. If I've gone, to all the trouble of taking 5 or 
5 nanoseconds to come up with an idea, I want it now. 
Right? You know? Why wait? So, what I'm going to 
be talking about are things that are both simple and 
powerful. They apply to everything that you're going 
to be learning throughout the basic course. They're 
going to apply to everything that you're going to be 
doing for the rest of your life. Okay? So let's start with 
something really, really simple. And that is words 
have power. Words themselves are sourc es of 
enormous power. Okay? We're all wired in a certain 
way. We all have a predisposition towards language 
use. Every human brain, not the mind, the mind is the 
part that's thinking and talking, making decisions, but 
there's also this piece of flesh that house all these 
neurons fining away here and there's all these cross-
connections. That's the brain. And the brain 
accommodates what are known as deep language 
structures. That is, we instinctively look for ways to 
categorize and express that which we experience as 
language. So while, if you grow up in a certain part of 
Europe, you start out speaking French before you do 
anything else. Okay? You grow up here, you start out 
speaking English, maybe, depending on where you 
live. Okay? Or you grow up in China, you're speaking 
Chinese, but you grow up using language. Why is 
this? It's because we need a way to structure our 
experience of reality. Now there's lots of folklore 
floating around like how many Eskimo words are there 
for snow? Well, depending on which exp ert you talk 
to, it's anywhere from a lot to a whole lot. Okay? But 
they have, they have lots of different words to talk 
about various specific things. Most of the time when 
we use a word, we're working with a consensual or a 
common definition. Okay? So if I say chair, you all 

background image

 

131

know roughly what a chair is. You don't know which 
style of chair I'm referring to. It could be a Queen 
Anne antique okay? It could be one of these 
utilitarian chairs; it could be anything okay? You 
don't know which chair I'm talking about; it's not 
specific, but you've got a concept of chairness. Okay? 
So we can start to use these very basic concepts to 
communicate one another. It's what enables us to join 
the information and the knowledge that we have to 
work together and to benefit us all. Okay? Well 
sometimes it's beneficial to come up with entirely new 
words. Popular culture does this all the time. We do it 
all the time. We've got a word that we call google. 
Okay? Bow many people know what google is? Okay. 
A little over half google is that state that you are in 
when you no longer give a shit about self-confidence 
and instead you're just going out to get the maximum 
benefit and pleasure out of each and every moment in 
your life. Okay? Self-confidence is no longer 
necessary because if you have google, you're 
automatically moving towards maximizing your 
experience of life. So we can invent new things, but if 
it didn't exist before, if it didn't have a name before, 
how is it that when we come up with this word, all of a 
sudden it's real, all of a sudden it's true? It's because 
there's a very simple process that is part of these deep 
structures I'm talking about that we go through. Each 
and every one of us. It's the way we're wired. Okay? 
He was talking earlier about something I like to talk 
about a lot, which is forget outcomes, forget specific 
outcomes. Instead look for very predictable structures 
that everyone has that you can get, you can use to 
get what you want. Okay? So, when we name a thing, 
we make it real. If you know the name of something, it 
exists. And you can convince someone else that it 
exists as well. As you begin to describe it, it comes to 
life. Think about this. Okay? If I say chair, you go, 
okay, yeah chair, I got it. And I go, well, aluminum 
chair, roughly three and a half feet tall, it's got a green 
fabric pillow on it, maybe a red leather back. Okay? 
And it's sitting three feet to you left oriented 45 
degrees off towards the north. Well all of a sudden 
you have a much better idea about it. Okay? If I say 
can you rememb er a vacation spot? Ooh, yeah, they 
can. Well maybe it was at the beach. And on that 
beach you can feel white sand compressing from my, 
underneath each and every step. You can feel the 
onshore breeze with that tang of salt air, the birds 
crying overhead, the rustle of the palm fronds, the 
smell of the coconut oil is drifting on down the beach, 
the snap of the bikini string as she unfastens to roll 
over. Okay? Oh, yeah, it's getting better and better, 
isn't it?  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: It's becoming real because you're using 
language in a very powerful way. Okay? Now, what 
we aim at, what we talk about a lot is the way in which 
you use language structures to create a beneficial 
reality, a very pleasant reality. Okay? Is this the only 
thing that we do? No. The reason we're in this line of 
work is that each and every person in this room has, 
at some in their life, used language in a bad way. 
Okay? Let me give you an example. There's something 
I was working on the plane as we were coming up 
here. I have these interests and I have these 
obsessions and I have these projects. Okay? Ooh, 
they all came real, oh god. Okay. What I'm working on 
these days is how to take bad things and turn them 
into powerful good things. Okay? Cause I get, I have 
a therapeutic practice. Okay? And it's because I'm 
hooked on talking to women and I'm really lazy and I 
only do things I get paid for. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: So, what better line of work for a guy like 
me than to have women pay me to listen to them 
discover their innermost secrets and make them feel 
wonderful. Okay? It's a good job.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: But, people come to me and they have 
desires and behaviors that are not acting in their best 
interests. There's this thing we have, back up, back 
up, back up. Rewind. Thank you, Ben. All of us are 
capable of going in and out of trance. We do it all the 
time. Okay? That's why I work as a hypnotist and the 
easiest thing in the world for me to do is to teach 
people how to go into trance, cause all I have to do is 
teach them how to recognize how they've been going 
into trance all their life and then say, "Now, do it 
again and listen carefully as I explain something.” 
Okay? That's it. Okay? At 150 bucks an hour all day, 
every day, right? So, there's this thing, people go into 
trance all the time, they do it outside their conscious 
awareness, they do it repeatedly. Now there are good 
trances, like when you daydream about something 
wonderful and you emerge from this daydream feeling 
relaxed, refreshed, feeling great, new ideas about 
possibilities in your life. There's this thing called 
pathological trance. A pathological trance is a belief, a 
behavior, a mindset, an attitude that acts in 
conjunction with other things like this to limit your 
choices. Okay? Now let me give you a really good 
example. Okay? There's this thing called a compulsion 
and a compulsion is defined as an irresistible urge to 
perform an unnatural act.  

background image

 

132

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Every time I talk about this, sheep get 
into the conversation.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: I don't know what it is. Okay? Okay. 
Choices of language and here, ooh, I didn't spell that 
correctly. Just assume this says irresistible. Okay? An 
irresistible urge to perform an unnatural act. Okay? 
So, if we were to look at this, many people think that 
compulsions are bad. People come to me all the time, 
they say, "How dare you work with compulsions. 
These are bad things, bad, bad, bad, bad.” Okay? 
People say that a lot when I'm talking. Okay? What we 
have here is a failure to understand things clearly. 
You look for perjoratives. Perjoratives are negative 
connotations that are applied to words. Which if you 
accepted that concept as true would tell you that a 
word, a word exists, it refers to something that's real 
as you u se it in description that brings it to life, well 
you could start doing bad things. And that would be 
a bad thing. Look at this one right here. Unnatural act. 
What does unnatural mean? Well, in the popular 
parlance, unnatural means deviant. Okay? It's a bad 
thing, it's an unnatural act. What unnatural actually 
means is it is not something that you would naturally 
do. It is not part of the patterns in your life, the 
patterns that you typically use as a substitute for 
thought. Okay? There are a lot of patterns we use in 
our life to avoid thinking. Okay. Belief systems are 
patterns we use to avoid thinking. A dogma is 
something we use to avoid thinking. Okay. So if we 
look at this and said an irresistible urge to perform an 
unnatural act, we could do a very rational thing, that 
must have sounded wonderful, we could do a very 
rational thing and simply redefine for everyone in the 
room well unnatural means, but since we're all learning 
how to be hypnotists and we're all already great guys 
and we don't do negative things, what if you just 
cross that part off? And I say compulsion, an 
irresistible urge to' perform an act? Ooh, that sounds 
pretty good doesn't it? That could be used as part of 
a propulsion -system. That could move you 
irresistibly into a , highly desirable future. Okay? 
When we're building our pictures, we might want to 
look and say, "Where have we had a compulsion in 
our life?" Okay? "Where have we been compelled to 
do something? Where do we keep that memory and 
what would happen if in that very same spot we were 
to just blank out the previous content, keep the power 
and put in a new picture?" Oooh, yeah. And you 
could make that picture bigger; you could move it 
right into your immediate future? And you could turn 

that fucker up? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: All right? Sounds good. Let's look at 
another one, another example of sloppy, sloppy 
language. Okay? Ooh, ooh, ooh, this is one of my 
ail-time favorites. Constraint. A constraint, well it 
means many things, but one possible meaning is a 
repression of one's own feelings, behaviors or 
actions. Okay. I used to do a lot of work with 
engineers; I used to be an engineer, spent 18 years in 
the software industry. This is after I stopped shooting 
people and before I started healing people. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: And one of the things you do as an 
engineer is you're paid to solve problems. People 
pose problems to you and then you go ahead and 
you find a series of solutions and then you pick you 
ideal solution. Well, as you do so, one of the first 
questions you ask yourself are, "What are the 
constraints?" If you're working on a product design, 
for example, you want to know what is all the desired 
functionality, what are the things it can't do, like in the 
software world, what are, what are the things that it 
must not do in order to keep the overall environment 
running? You know, the Microsoft environment, so it 
only crashes three times a day instead of twelve.  

Audience: laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? Or constraints can be 
environmental factors like you could define, you 
could design the best software product ever, but if it 
would cost 3, 000 dollars a copy, you're not going to 
sell all that much. But if sell it at $39. 95, you're going 
to sell just a bazillion of these things. Okay? 
Constraints are rules and boundaries that you place 
around the area within which you solve your problem. 
Okay? Well, gosh, constraints have another meaning 
as well though. A constraint is a repression of one's 
own feelings, behaviors and actions. So if you were to 
look at how do I go about solving the problem of my 
life, how do I go about designing new behaviors, new 
belief systems, new attitudes and new actions so that 
my life gets better than it, I ever, you know, imagined 
in my wildest imaginings? Everyone starts out and 
they build a box. Okay? And within this box is where 
we're going to devise our solutions. The boundary of 
the box is the constraint. Well, what is a constraint? A 
constraint is that area in which you have a repression 
of your own feelings, behaviors and actions. Okay? 
Listen to yourself talk to yourself. Because if you 
start thinking about constraints, not only do you say, 
for example, that, you know, I'm inside a box but it's 

background image

 

133

attractive because it's my box. You know? You also 
say that there's all this area outside the box. There are 
a million, a billion potential solutions outside the box. 
What keeps you from moving outside the box? 
Constraints. What is a constraint? It's a repression of 
your own feelings, behaviors and actions. We were 
talking earlier today about obstacles. Okay? And how 
obstacles are perceived. Obstacles are constructs in 
our mind. There are very, very few natural obstacles. 
I'll give you an example of a natural obstacle. Okay? I 
used to be a top-ranked shooter. Okay? I could go 
anywhere in the world, pick up my tool, compete, and 
come out very, very well. Now, in the interim, I have 
had two accidents, one of which damaged my left eye, 
one of which damaged my right eye. Ooh, bad thing. 
It's a physical constraint. There's absolutely nothing I 
can do about that, So, I don't compete in that 
particular level any more. Now they go out shooting, I 
go talk to their wives. Right? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay. However, there are no other 
constraints in the rest of my life. I can do anything I 
want. I can think anything I want and believe 
anything I want. I don't accept the idea of constraints. 
When I find something that's an obstacle, the first 
thing I do is I think, speed bump, okay? An obstacle 
is this little blip in the road that let's me know that, 
whoa, something just happened there, maybe I ought 
to slow down, maybe I ought to go around next time, 
maybe I'm driving down the wrong fucking street. 
Okay? But, it's now longer this huge thing looming in 
my mind because I have redefined it. And as I start 
using new terms, as I use new words, I build new 
realities and by describing it to myself, I bring it to 
life. Does this make sense? Say yes.  

Audience: Yes 

Major Mark: I like this. Okay. Let me give you one 
more example. Okay? People also get down on me 
cause I like to talk about, well we won't do dominance. 
We'll do obsessions. Okay? I'll make you do 
dominance.  

Ross: There's nothing wrong with dominance.  

Audience: Do dominance.  

Major Mark: Dominance, dominance is really simple. 
The actual definition of dominance is to exert the 
supreme or determining influence. Okay? It does not 
mean to control. It does mean to, you know, hook her 
up to a leash and drag her around the room. Instead, it 
means you are the most powerful influence in 
someone's life. Now, does that sound like a negative 

thing? Well, maybe not. It depends on what you're 
doing. All these things are value free, okay? Words 
don't have anywhere near the power that most people 
think, even though they control everyone's reality. 
How can this be? Well, Lenny Bruce was right. And 
Lenny Bruce made a very nice living off of talking 
about things that you're not supposed to talk about. 
Okay? Lenny Bruce used to be able to stand up in 
front of an audience and say "fuck" and people would 
applaud while even paying for it. You know? I think 
I've got a good job, jeez. But the thing is, words are 
value-free, it's the connotation and the notion of 
reality that you bring to them that determine whether 
they're helpful or they're harmful. Okay. Now let's do 
obsessions.  

Audience: Are _____ connotations, are they are 
_____ .  

Major Mark: Yeah. Perjority means negative and 
negative in this sense means it hurts somebody. 
Okay. I, I am a real big believer on good things, bad 
things. I mentioned this before. In my life, good 
things are that which expand your possibilities and 
make you feel good. Bad things are things which 
restrain your possibilities and hurt you. Now, I'm not 
talking about did it hurt your feelings. I'm talking 
about did it puncture this bag of fluids and you're 
leaking. Okay? I'm not tremendously concerned about 
whether someone has hurt feelings or not because I 
can't control that. I have no idea what garbage has 
been placed in your mind and you've been practicing 
for the past 20 years. Not my problem. Okay? But, if I 
haul off and I'm gesturing wildly and I whack you in 
the side of the head, that's a bad thing. Okay? I've 
entered into your personal space as Brother Orion 
said and yeah, in a very direct way and it didn't turn 
out very well. Okay. Obsessions. A persistent 
disturbing preoccupation with an often unreasonable, 
oh, idea or feeling. Okay. A persistent disturbing 
preoccupation with an often unreasonable idea or 
feeling. Do you get the idea that the people who write 
these dictionaries are like trying to get a point across? 
You know? Persistent, disturbing, preoccupation, 
unreasonable. Well, what does this really mean? You 
know what an obsession is, right? It's a thought that 
gets into your head and you just can't let go. All 
right? I just came from Disney World and I really 
worked hard to avoid anything that was going "It's a 
small, small world.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Because these people are very clever. 
That thing will stick in your mind for months. All 
right. An obsession is an id ea that gets into your 

background image

 

134

head from whatever way, whatever cause and it just 
haunts you. Okay? You can't get it out of your head. 
So, let's look at this again. Persistent, that's not too 
bad. Disturbing; what does disturbing mean? It means 
it is interrupted the normal progression or the normal 
reality that you've got running inside your head. It 
has disturbed it. If you go out to a flowerbed and 
move the dirt a little bit around, you have disturbed 
the dirt. Have you caused the dirt nightmares? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: No. Okay? All it means is to move out of 
the normal order. Preoccupation; what is a 
preoccupation? Or how does it manifest itself? If you 
were to imagine the movie screen right in front of you 
that you're playing your entire life, okay, and now 
right in front of you, in your own person movie 
theater, you have a large, unpleasant woman wearing 
a large hat, okay, you would be preoccupied with the 
fact that she was blocking your view. It takes a central 
point, a focus within your life. Okay? Often 
unreasonable, unreasonable; what does that mean? It 
means it doesn't make a lot of sense. But wait a 
minute. We've been talking about intuition. Intuition 
is a good thing. We all want it; we're going to be 
practicing it. But where is the rationale behind 
intuition? Where is the clear and obvious mechanism 
that intuition uses? Well, you can't see it, that's the 
whole point. Okay? It's unreasonable. So, let's strike 
out these things that have the messy, messy 
ambiguities. Okay. We'll cross out disturbing, we'll 
cross out often unreasonable and say an obsession is 
a persistent preoccupation with an idea or feeling. 
Okay? I've had the privilege of meeting some people 
who have competed in the Olympics. My father 
competed in the Olympics. Through him I got to know 
a whole bunch of these people. Okay? When they talk 
about doing their mental imagery, when they talk 
about doing their preparation for their event, for their 
competition, they talk about a single-minded focus on 
an attitude, an action and an outcome. Okay? What 
are they? They are obsessed with correct 
performance. Again, this about a time in your life 
when there were thoughts going through your head 
that were persistent, they were outside your normal 
order of things, you couldn't get them out of your 
head and you really don't know why it's happening, 
but god dammit, you just can't get it out of your head. 
That's an obsession and you can use it on your own 
behalf. Okay. Now, why am I telling you all this stuff? 
First of all, it's true. These things need to be said. 
You've been talking to yourself in bad ways. You've 
been talking to yourself in ways that have acted to 
close down your sense of possibilities. You've been 

saying things to yourself like, "I'm not the kind of guy 
who does x, y, z.” Or, "She would never be interested 
in me.” Or, "I could never get all the way into wild, 
screaming, rip-up the-sheets sex on the first date.” 
Okay? All of these are examples of pathological 
trance. None of them are true. Okay? You've been 
using language in bad ways and it's time, this 
weekend, now, to begin to think very, very carefully 
about how you talk to yourself. What is it that you 
say to yourself and how do you say it? What is the 
tonality you use? Kim's going to come up and she's 
going to be talking about tonality. Okay? I've had the 
great pleasure of being around Kim for quite some 
time now. She's fabulous. You're going to love it. 
She's right. Okay? You could be telling yourself a 
good thing in your head and if you're using this 
whiny little tonality, okay, it's like the dentist drill. 
Okay? That's what tonality is. You ever go into a 
dentist's office and you're sitting there and you're 
looking at some magazine that was old six months 
ago, and in the background you hear this rrrring, 
rrring, rrring? I'm convinced that they, I mean, they 
don't even do the work. They just tape it and play it, 
You know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Because they, they get you into such, 
such a deep trance state before you even hit the chair. 
It's like I give up, do me, you know, rrrr, rrring. 
Tonality sets the tenor of your response to a 
message. Okay? So you, you choose your words very 
carefully. You think about the tonality. You'll hear 
people like Ross and myself, we'll be talking away and 
we'll stop, we'll go, "Aaah.” Okay? It's a tension 
release but it also moves us right back down into the 
point where we can talk instead up here and really fast 
like I often do. You go slow down. Okay? And you 
get the tonality going and you're soothing yourself 
Now, I told you all that to tell you this. There are a lot 
of ideas that are going on in the world about what 
does it mean to be a seducer? Okay? If you'd walk up 
to the average woman on the street and say, 
"Describe a seducer, " you're going to get a negative 
response back. And yet, if y ou ask her, "Has ever 
been a time in your life when you met a man who just, 
out of the blue, appeared in front of you, the very 
picture of someone you've wanted all your life, 
someone who is blah, blah, blah, blah, " you just 
describe them, "would you find that attractive?" 
"Ooh, yeah.” Well, wait a minute. A seducer is bad 
and yet the man who is capable of seducing them is 
good. How does that work? You know? How can 
these things both be true? And it's because there's a 
connotation with the word. Words resonate with

people in certain ways. Now, some of the questions 
that have been asked so far this weekend have to do 
with things like where is it ethical to use these 
technologies? Okay? How can you use it ways that 
help women without hurting them? Okay? How could 
you use it to fit within the social constraints so that 
you don't, I mean, listen, I ... I do research projects. I 
get bored really easily, so when I do a research 
project, I don't just like go out and say, "Someone 
told me this is true. I tried it and it's true. I'll try it ten 
more times and see if it's still true.” No, no. I 
immediately go back to my previous slide here and 
say, "Fuck constraints.” Okay? "Where are the real 
boundaries on this stuff So, as a result, I have, yes in 
fact, jumped out a second story windows while 
somebody else was coming up the stairs with a gun. 
Okay? Bad thing, bad, bad, bad. Okay? I have had a 
real problem with my landlord in an apartment complex 
because women kept breaking the lock on their front 
door and coming in and pounding on my door, cause 
they wanted more. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter.  

Major Mark: This is no shit. I mean, it's, reality is far 
stranger than any fiction you could ever come up 
with. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Once you learn this sort of stuff, there is 
this natural tendency to go out and try it a lot. Okay? 
You sit back and think, "I am a master speed seducer. 
I have always wanted six foot athletic blondes.” And 
see, you start to collect some. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: And you forget the off switch. Okay? 
And so all of a sudden, you've got this small stable of 
athletic, you know, blondes who want more of what 
they got before. Okay? It may be you got a little 
sloppy and didn't redirect all that energy some place 
else so they're still looking for you. Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: I was living in this apartment complex, no 
shit, women were like breaking the locks on the 
entrance door, coming upstairs, pounding on my 
door, three in the morning, "I now you're in there. I 
know you're in there with her.” Barn, bam, bam, ... I'm 
thinking, "What the fuck is this?" And then my 
neighbor starts getting really upset, not because of 
the noise, but because his wife is sniffing around 
saying, "What's so special about Mark that he's got 
all these women?"  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? This is a bad thing, bad thing.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Yep, good thing, bad thing. So I learned 
to express myself in different ways.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? I learned that there are ways of 
being a seducer that do not slip into pathological 
trance. There are ways of approaching seduction that 
do not involve limiting anyone's options, harming 
anyone at all. And the key to this is to (a) use your 
language correctly, always be scrupulously honest 
and actually do everything that you're talking about. 
Brother Orion's main point, okay, you cannot crank, 
somebody kick Brother Orion. Okay, there we go. You 
cannot crank them up to nuclear pitch and then leave 
them hanging there. Cause what happens? It pisses 
them off. They're in a highly energized state, they're 
paying attention to you and now they're pissed off. 
Bad thing. Okay? You want, instead, to follow 
through on everything that you promised, which 
means you need to be very, very careful about what 
you promise. You promise things, things through 
words, you promise things through Implication, 
through your use of ambiguity, you promise things 
through your physical performance. Okay? You have 
to fucking pay attention. You're always 
communicating, inside and outside. Okay. Now, some 
people come up and ask me and they say, well, oh, for 
example, let's just use this few minutes here to talk 
about one of my most famous research projects, 
which is the scoring with married women book.

Tape 7 – Side 1 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 13 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Home Study Course 

 

Major Mark: To end it up, there's a public called THE 
RENEGADE HYPNOTIST REVEALS AMAZING 
TRUE SECRETS ABOUT SCORING WITH MARRIED 
WOMEN.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: That's right. Hey, you know. And the 
thing is the reason I started thinking about all this 
was in my work as a therapist, I see anywhere 
between, oh jeez, 40, 50 women a week professionally. 
Okay? Out of those, at least half and this spans, this 
is an average, this spans the last 10 years, I would say 
at least half have either said they're going to have an 
affair, they're having an affair, or they have had an 
affair. And I'm thinking, "Well, now wait a minute. 
How can this be when, in fact, the whole image of 
married women is that marriage is sacred, it's forever, 
it's true, it's permanent, it's concrete, you know, it's 
titanium, not can possibly interfere with it.” Well, the 
fact is as I mentioned before, women are people. 
Okay? People are engines of infinite possibility, 
including behaviors, including desires, including 
needs. Okay? And we have a myth built up in our 
culture that says before marriage women go through 
predictable stages. Okay? They're little girls who are 
dreaming about the future and what must be. Okay? 
They're adventurous young women who are out 
partying, dancing, flirting, experimenting with love 
affairs, finding out what life is all alike, and then 
suddenly at some point it's like they throw a switch, 
boom, new path, and they decide they want to get 
married. And marriage is something that is apart, 
marriage is something different. Marriage means that 
they go o ut and they decide "I'm ready to get married, 
here's the kind of man I want to get married to, " and 
heaven help the next poor sorry bastard who wanders 
into their sights.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: You know? Because she's ready. Okay? 
And she's going to girlnosis on you until ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: you just go ahead and you succumb. 
You know? People ask me all the time, you know, 
"Gee, you're Major Mark. You're this world famous 
seducer, you know. If you can do anything in your 
life you want, for Christ sake, look at everything 
you've done so far, why did you get married?" And 
the answer is really simple. Cassie's a much better 
hypnotist than I am.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: But the thing is, our concept of marriage 
includes pathological trance. This is a verifiable fact. 
It closes down your options. And for most women in 
our society they move into a predominantly sexless 
role. Does this mean they don't have sex? No, it 
means that that aspect of their life, they vibrant 
sexuality that they reveled in just a year before, is 
sublimated to the concept of marriage. Okay? They 
are now a wife. So, you've all seen it. It's like you meet 
some woman, she's very active, she's friendly and all 
this kind of stuff. She goes and gets married and then 
all of a sudden she can't go to lunch with you 
because she's married. Okay? She can't talk to you at 
parties, can't fool around and flirt like she used to 
cause she's married. Okay? Women are taught to 
protect themselves, to hold men not at an arm's 
distance, more like a football field's distance, once 
they're married. Because they want to avoid the 
appearance of temptation, they want to avoid the 
reality of temptation. Okay? Well, unfortunately, 
women are just like people. This shit only goes so far. 
Okay? A few years into this, maybe even sooner, they 
start going, "Hey.” Because the woman they used to 
be is still alive. Okay? That, that laughing, happy girl 
who'd go out and dance all night and just love the 
experience is still alive, she still wants to come out 
and play. See, there's this very important truth, and 
that is there's no such thing as a married woman. 
There is no such thing as a married woman. We, we've 
got the words all wrong. There are only women who 
have gotten married.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Okay? There are women who have 
changed t heir legal status and somehow wrapped up 
in this thing is the whole idea that now I have to be 
completely different person and shut down huge 
areas of my life in order to be a happily married 
woman. Who benefits from this? Married men. Okay? 
Married men love this shit. Okay? Cause they can still 
run around and do anything they want, they can be 
masters of the universe, they can be in charge, 
knowing that wifey is going to be home, wifey's going 
to be a good girl. The one thing that terrifies a married 

background image

 

137

man the most is the idea that his wife is going to wake 
up. Okay? She's going to say, "Hey, I've got desires, 
I've got needs, I'm a human being, I want to have a 
little adventure, I want to have a little passion, I want 
to do something outside the box. I can see over this 
constraint and see that it's just a line here, it doesn't 
really exist.” Oooh, what starts to happen then? They 
start looking for possibilities. Now, up until relatively 
recently it was men who had greater possibilities for 
infidelity. Oooh, okay? Infidelity means unfaithful and 
that really refers back to what's the nature of the 
promise you made, which is, you should be really 
careful about it. I just went through this marriage 
ceremony where half of it was in Hebrew and that 
made me nervous as hell. You know? I mean, I have 
no idea what the man was talking about, I just know, 
you know, he was going on and on and the whole 
congregation was going, yeah, yeah, and I'm going, 
"What is this?" You know? 

Ross: You waved your stock portfolio.  

Major Mark: That's right.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Exactly right. I affirmed the second 
mortgage and you know all that kind of stuff. But the 
thing is there are, there are a couple of studies that 
came out last year that have to do with married and 
their, their sexual behavior. And the most 
conservative study that came out of U. S. 
Government, oddly enough, because they don't 
publish the one's that aren't politically correct, I don't 
know if you know this, but there's all this research 
that never makes it outside the Library of Congress 
because they don't want to admit it. Okay? But, the 
most conservative study published for the past 
couple of years said that one out of three wives will, 
in fact, repeatedly have affairs while she remains 
married. One out of three. Okay? Now, if that was the 
only number, that means there's one hell of a lot of 
women doing this. My experience as I said is that, is 
roughly half The greatest predictor of infidelity is 
opportunity. It's a fact, okay? You all know this is 
true. You're men, you're dogs, you sniff butts, you 
know? 

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: You know that if the opportunity 
presents itself in front of you, you go, oooh, this is 
nice. Okay? I can always think about how it's a bad 
thing later.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Right now it's here. You know? I want to 

hump her leg right here.  

Audience: Laugher 

Major Mark: You know? Okay? Well, as women in our 
society take an ever-increasing role in everyday 
activities, the broad-range activities, guess what? 
Their opportunity goes up so the number goes up. 
Okay? Is this a bad thing? Well, this is where people 
argue. Okay? People have various opinions; they 
have various beliefs, good thing, bad thing. I'm not 
really qualified to judge. All I know is that in my 
professional practice if a day goes by without 
somebody hitting on me, I figure I must be on 
vacation or I'm sure as hell not in the office. Okay? It 
happens all the time, all the time. Now why do women 
do this? Pause for reflection. Women do this because 
they want the same things we want. Okay? They want 
pleasure, they want passion, they want adventure. 
And it's not that they have something specific in 
mind. They want something that they associate with 
those words. They want something that they 
associate with those values that the culture has 
pounded into them. Okay? When you want to keep a 
wife from straying, you are actually running up into 
this headlong confrontation with 20, 30, 40 years of 
cultural conditioning to be just the opposite. Okay? I 
mean, it is absolutely amazing. Now women are able to 
compartmentalize their behavior in ways that men find 
unnatural. What is unnatural? It's not bad, it just 
means we haven't practiced it. Okay? Men are such 
simple creatures. It's really true. I teach this course 
called BUILDING A BETTER GIRLFRIEND. Okay? 
And guys get wildly excited about it because it all 
works. It works wonderfully well. Women don't even 
blink. It's funny. Guys go, "Well, Jeez, you know, 
does this really work? Can I do this, can I do this with 
it, can I do that with it?" Women go, "Cool, where do 
I sign?" Okay? They find out I teach this stuff, they're 
reaching for their checkbook. Okay? They understand 
this stuff cause they know that behaviors fall into 
different categories in your life. Okay? And a way a 
woman is going to approach doing something outside 
her marriage, seeking pleasure outside her marriage, or 
even worse yet, seeking meaningful conversation and 
meaningful emotions outside her marriage, she'll do it 
in a box. Okay? This is a question when I first started 
doing the research, I couldn't figure out how is it that 
women cheating on their marriage was such a bad 
thing was so many of them appeared to be doing it. 
You know? You would think that the countryside 
would be just littered with destroyed lives. I mean if 
one out of two women are doing it, you would think 
that we would be totally fucked instead of mostly 
fucked up.

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: All right? Okay. And what I found is that 
the question I learned to ask, which is the killer, killer 
question, is if there was a way that you could 
experience a once-in-a-lifetime romantic or sexual 
adventure, without it negatively impacting your 
primary relationship, would you do it? Yes, the 
answer would comeback just like that. Okay. Because 
within those constraints I drew a bigger box. Right? 
Within those constraints they all go for it. Well how 
can this possibly be if it's a naturally bad thing? It's 
because I used language that allowed a greater sense 
of possibility. Okay.  

Audience: Can you restate that? 

Major Mark: Which part? 

Audience: The part, if there was ...  

Major Mark: Oh. If there was, ha ha, you want to use 
this later, huh? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Major Mark: If there was a way for you to enjoy a 
romantic or sexual adventure outside your marriage in 
such a way that it would never negatively impact your 
primary relationship, would you do it? 

Audience: Thank you.  

Major Mark: I've, I've asked tens of thousands of 
women this question. I've not y et gotten a no answer. 
Okay? This tells me I'm on to something.  

Audience: Laughter. Would you repeat that one more 
time? 

Major Mark: It's actually all on a very fine course 
called BUILD A BETTER GIRLFRIEND.  

?: It's available.  

Audience: Now, I ...  

Major Mark: Yes I will.  

Audience: When you ask that question, do you ask it 
as sort of like research to find out or do you ask it as 
part of a seduction? 

Major Mark: Well, if I'm in the office its research.  

Audience: Yeah. Laughter.  

Major Mark: Uh huh. But, if I'm sitting at a restaurant 
somewhere, I'll just ask it. I'll say, "Listen, as a man, 
I'm curious about something that you can reveal to me 
now and that is ...” boom, I hit them with the question. 
”If there was a way for you to experience a romantic 
or sexual adventure outside the realm of your marriage 

in such a way that it would never negatively impact 
your primary relationship ...” I mean, look at all the 
qualifiers I'm using. Okay? Okay. ”Would you do it?" 
Well, yes they would. Okay? Do I ever have to say, 
"Would you like to go fuck?" "No!" Okay. If half the 
married women in North America are either looking for 
the opportunity, have the opportunity, have had the 
opportunity, chances are all I have to do is be 
available. The greatest predictor of infidelity is  

Audience: Possibility.  

Major Mark: Possibility. Opportunity. Right? Okay? If 
you bring in a carload of starving women all I have to 
do is look like the dessert tray.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: These women are going to go out and 
they're going to be looking for that experience with 
someone. Now, they could go out and find somebody 
who hasn't been through this course before and so 
isn't very skilled, isn't very knowledgeable, isn't very 
mature, doesn't know how to do it in such a way that 
doesn't hurt people, and so they can end up with 
them.  

Ross: There's a point I want to make here. And I hope 
you can see this point. The point I want to make is 
regardless of whether you're interested in seducing 
married women or not, there's a, there's a much more 
interesting thing going on here. In my opinion. And 
that is Mark's ability to see beyond the box and refuse 
to be, however temporarily at least, refuse to be 
brainwashed by a set of word associations. The, the, 
the, everything that he's doing here flows, and correct 
me if I'm wrong, but I think I'm night, I think I know 
how you think, at least I think I think I know how you 
think, but then there's what you know that you know, 
then there's what ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You don't know you know until one day you 
suddenly realize you know you know it. And then 
when what you don't know you becomes what you 
know you know, then you just think things 
differently. You know? So anyway, little confusion. 
Here's the point. This all flows out of Mark's 
understanding that there are no married women, there 
are only women who got married. So he refuses to 
have a category in his mind that says single 
women/married women. To him they're all women. 
And therefore he's able to reach the conclusion, 
"Wait a minute. They still have the same response, 
the same desires, the same mindsets as single 
women.” So that ability to take a, a defining wordset, 

background image

 

139

a set of words that captures and traps people's neuro 
associations and forces them along a narrow line of 
thinking, so narrow that they can't even see the 
opportunity that's over here. You really want to begin 
to question for yourselves, even if you don't accept 
that seducing married women is something you would 
even step towards doing, at least ask yourself, "Okay, 
what else is there in my life where I'm accepting the 
definition that's so narrowing, so constricting?" In 
fact, what Mark is really saying, if I might, he saying 
that the very term married woman is a pathological 
trance inducer.  

Major Mark: Uh huh.  

Ross: Why? Because it narrows the type of things 
you can even begin to consider let alone act on. 
Okay? Even if you would never seduce a married 
woman, at least see how the very word, married 
woman, is actually a pathological trance inducer, 
cause it's taking away your choice to even think 
about it in a different way. And a huge amount of the 
control mechanisms in our society are pathological 
trance inducers through words. If someone can 
determine how you think about something, then they 
can determine how far you think about something. 
Okay? And the way they do that is through 
languaging and through words. So look at this, even 
if you don't agree with seducing married women or 
not, look at this as an opportunity to begin to explore 
how words induce pathological trance. And dating is, 
in effect, a set of words that induce a pathological 
trance. A pathological trance that requires men to be 
supplicators, that requires men to be sex beggars or 
bullies, or requires men to be, accept terrible choices 
that you either do nothing o r you have to live on luck 
and chance. Okay? You've been sold a huge amount 
of pathological trance. A huge amount. And that 
pathological trance is called dating. Am I correct 
about this? 

Major Mark: Yes.  

Ross: Is this where you're driving with it? 

Major Mark: Yeah. Cause see the thing is, I'm always 
honest with you guys, but let me just abandon any 
kind of sophistication and go right for the blunt edge. 
The reason that I talk to people about my research 
into this area is because the whole concept of scorin g 
with married women gets people right by the balls, 
gets guys right by the balls. Some guys go, "Oh, 
yeah, I want to do that.” Other guys go, "You fucking 
scum. How dare you even think this.” And then most 
guys go, "Huh?" Cause it never even came on the 
radar screen before. Okay? The thing is, this is a prime 

example of how our cultural mindset and how we use 
language exerts a powerful, powerful influence on 
you. But the key to shatter, to break that control is to 
just wake up, to look at what's _____ , to listen to 
what is actually being said inside and outside your 
head, and going, "Wait a minute. Is that true or not?" 
Yes. Yes sir.  

Audience: Yeah. I support your concept of breaking 
out of the box. I started out with a thousand dollar 
MasterCard loan and I built up a multi-million dollar 
worldwide _____ .  

Major Mark: Sure. Okay.  

Audience: Breaking out of the box. Reading about 
doing that and I like your openness, okay? 

Major Mark: Uh huh.  

Audience: And you talked about being honest ...  

Major Mark: Uh huh.  

Audience: Okay? And I respect that concept. But if 
you promise somebody at the altar and you go and 
break that contract, you are not being honest.  

Major Mark: I understand what you're saying.  

Audience: In my, you know, my ...  

Major Mark: Okay.  

Audience: Do you agree with that or not? 

Major Mark: Uh, yes and no. Okay? I'm not trying to 
dance around the question, Okay. The marriage 
compact as we understand it in American culture is 
one of the very few open-ended contracts you ever 
enter in, enter into. Most contracts are bounded by 
terms and conditions that are often bounded by dates 
as well. Okay? Marriage is the one area where you 
don't know what the hell you're doing with somebody 
you don't really understand and you promise a certain 
set of behavior forever. The fact is people change. 
Okay? Now, if I were to look at anybody, male or 
female, who looks at what they promised before and 
says this binds my behavior forever, regardless of 
how unhappy I may be, as someone who makes a 
living out of helping people, I have to wonder about 
that line of reasoning. Okay? I understand what 
you're talking about because when I give somebody 
my word, I go through, I mean, I will go through the 
fires of hell to make sure that I promised. In fact, that's 
one thing people will tell you about me is I'm very 
careful about what I promise because I'm obligated to 
perform. Okay? That's why when we got married, I 
didn't make any promise to be faithful forever, 
sexually faithful forever. It didn't even come up. What 

background image

 

140

I explicitly promised and which I will honor to the day 
I die is that I will never do anything to hurt her.  

Audience: But if you have sex with another woman in 
the age of AIDS, there's a chance. If your wife ...  

Ross: Okay. Hang on a second, hang on a second. 
There's a degree which an exchange degenerates into 
a dialogue in an argument. You, he made, he, you 
acknowledged what you appreciated about him and 
where your difference was and he answered you back. 
So we can keep going but, but, but, but, but ... I think 
that the discussion has gone to the point where it's 
getting extended to that. I don't want it to do that.  

Major Mark: Right. It's a mistake to get too attached a 
model ...  

Ross: It's a mistake to but, but, but, let me say this. 
There's, there's one point I want to make and then I 
want to drop that. There's a concept in law, having 
been a former paralegal, called an adhesion contract. 
Do you know what an adhesion contract is? The law 
frowns upon contracts of adhesion. It basically means 
you're stuck with it. Adhesion, to adhere, it means the 
contract is so binding and one-sided and oppressive, 
you're basically forced into signing it. And the law 
frowns upon that sort of thing. An example of an 
adhesion contract is an insurance policy. If an 
insurance policy has impossible conditions and you 
still sign it, the law will look, look at that say it's 
voidable.  

Major Mark: Not enforceable.  

Ross: Not void, but voidable. And there's an extent to 
which marriage is an adhesion contract because the 
norms of society will only confer certain benefits if 
you agree to certain sexual restrictions that may not 
be in the best interest of human beings. They may or 
they may not . So there's an extent to which marriage 
can be viewed as a contract of adhesion, you know, 
that, that it's so binding and oppressive that to break 
it is not necessarily, it may, and by the way, not all 
dishonesty is bad. If you're, let me give you an 
example where dishonesty would not be bad. You're a 
German in World War II and you're sheltering Jewish 
people in your attic. Okay? You decided that policy of 
murdering Jews is not a good thing. I think you would 
agree, murdering Jews is not a good thing. Yes? 
Murdering innocent people is bad.  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Okay? So you've got Jewish children hiding in 
your attic and the Nazi official knocks on your door 
and says, "Do you have any Jews in your home?" 
Are you going to tell him the truth; yes I do or are 

you going to lie? 

Audience: I would say to him, "Are you crazy?" 

Ross: Well, he says, "Do you have any Jews in your 
home?" 

Audience: "What a question to ask of a Nazi.” 

Ross: Okay, good. So you would say no. Okay.  

Audience: No, I wouldn't.  

Ross: You would, you would not lie.  

Major Mark: No, that dissembling. That's dissembling.  

Ross: That's dissembling, that's not telling the truth.  

Audience: I'm not saying no.  

Ross: But if you said yes, if your only choice was yes 
or now, I'm serious, if your only choice was yes or no, 
would you lie? 

Audience: I'd just, I'd go off on them. ”How dare 
you?" 

Ross: Listen to me and answer my question. If your 
only choice was yes or no, would you lie? 

Audience: Yes I would.  

Ross: Okay. So being honest is not always the best 
thing. Okay. Let's drop this topic.  

Major Mark: Okay. Perhaps I can put some minds at 
rest by saying I have never hit on a married woman in 
my life. I've never set out to seduce a married woman 
in my life. Have I ever had married women hit on me? 
Yes, constantly. Okay? The thing is, once a woman 
puts her mind to this, okay, once she's changed her 
boundaries, when she has changed her constraints, 
she's going to be out doing something, if she's 
moving through society like a virus in pumps and 
pearls. Okay? I mean, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: That's right. And see, the thing is , she's, 
she's going to go out and she's going to engage in 
the behavior along with half of all her other married 
sisters. Okay? The thing is if you were to get involved 
in this sort of thing, the only that's necessary to do is 
to become the sort of man that married women are 
attracted to. Okay. Now, does this sound at all 
familiar? Say yes.  

Audience: Yes.  

Major Mark: Because the whole purpose of speed 
seduction is for you to transform yourself, transform 
yourself into the kind of man that women find

comp elling.  

Audience: I have a question. If even with all the social 
pressures and whatnot that come to bear with taking a 
woman, you know,  

Major Mark: Right.  

Audience: Oftentimes still can't force monogamy, do 
you think that it's, that in some way that it's a 
commentary on how _____ transformation occurs 
that it has to be an entire process over a period of 
time because people aren't static _____ that ...  

Major Mark: That is certainly true. But let me tell you 
that women are far less resistant to stepping o utside a 
marriage than men are. Okay? Honest to god. Okay? 
In my professional opinion I experience women will go 
for it at the drop of a hat. Okay? 

Audience: On a different subject. The 64 thousand 
dollar question. Of the thousands of women that you 
interviewed you say that they all never say no ...  

Major Mark: Right.  

Audience: Do they ever say anything besides yes? 

Major Mark: They might want to know more details 
about how it could not affect their primary 
relationship and I ask them, I say, "Are there areas of 
your life where you're a mom?" Well, if they have 
kids, they'll go, "Yeah.” I go, "Okay, there's clearly 
accepted rules and roles of behavior within that.” 
And they go, "Yeah.” And I go, "But there are also 
areas where you're a wife.” And they go, "Yeah.” And 
I say, "It doesn't always overlap does it?" "Well, no.” 
There are different behaviors they keep in different 
parts of their life. Then they've got their working life. 
It's all the behavior that they associate with being in 
the office, what you can and can't do, how they relate 
to people, who their friends are, okay? Then they go 
to church and they have the life of, "Well, how do I 
_____ myself within the boundaries of the 
congregation?" Women understand this stuff. They 
compartmentalize their lives cause that's how they get 
through all the demands in their life. Adding one more 
box that happens to contain the possibility of wild 
passion, a once in a lifetime romantic adventure, and 
fulfillment beyond their wildest dreams, well, that's 
not so difficult to do.  

Audience: So, in other words, an affirmative response 
means that they can put the extra box in? 

Major Mark: Yeah. Yeah.  

Ross: There's, there's, there's another thing to keep in 
mind here. What if it were possible, just suppose, I 

know this is outside of the box, what if, just suppose 
as a result of this experience of wild and amazing 
passion, she could take that passion back into her 
marriage and re-energize and revitalize it? 

Major Mark: What if she got it out of her system? 

Ross: I'm serious, I'm not trying to be facetious, I'm 
not being cynical here. I'm deadly serious. What if 
passion were not just a limited thing she only has so 
much of like porridge handed out at the orphanage? 
This is another scarcity thing. What if passion were 
something you could reawaken in her so she then 
goes back to her marriage and takes it back into her 
marriage and re-ignites it? He may be marching 
around going, "Wow, must be the new cologne.” But 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And he never has to know. See it, to my mind, 
to my mind, the important thing is not to violate or 
disrupt a loving, good, healthy relationship. Whether 
that's in the institution of a marriage or whether it's an 
institution of people who are still single. But you 
could be in a marriage where people absolutely hate, 
what if they absolutely hate each other, make each 
other miserable? Is that a bigger violation than to go 
and try and break up people who are single but are 
really deliriously happy with each other, simply 
because there's a rule that s ays don't do it? But, but, 
let, let's, if we can, get off of the, get off of that aspect 
and move on to something else. Is it on this topic, 
cause if it is, let's drop it.  

Audience: I had a question about 
compartmentalization.  

Ross: Yes. Compartmentalization ...  

Audience: When you were talking you mentioned 
roles, it seemed like there was always a role name that 
went along with the compartment. If someone, if 
someone cheats, what's the role name for that that's 
not, doesn't have any pejorative connotatio ns to it? 

Major Mark: Lover. Lover. Okay, listen. There are lots 
of examples of women loving someone deeply. In my 
mind ...  

Ross: In my mind, okay.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: Women are able to couple the rational 
with the emotional to a far greater degree night out of 
the box than we are. I don't know why it is; it's just the 
way it works.  

Audience: The purpose of colossun is actually thicker 
than our, so they naturally have an ability to send 

background image

 

142

neurological signals back much faster and cleaner ...  

Ross: Unless you're taking a lot of Porasitin then you 
can, then you, then you get even with them.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Major Mark: The corpus colossun for those of you 
who don't know is that little bundle of nerve fibers 
that connect your two hemispheres, that allow your 
two hemispheres to communicate. Okay? It's one of 
the cool things about women. This is why they come 
up with all these amazing insights all the time. Ross: I 
would say that men are equally complex in different 
areas, but when it comes to sex, men are not complex. 
Okay? Men don't compartmentalize, sexuality diffuses 
and infuses all throughout our waking, every, every 
waking thought and every waking moment. But men 
can be equally complex in other areas.  

Major Mark: Okay, let, let me, let me tiptoe out of the 
minefield here for a second here, okay, cause we were 
in, perilously close to blowing ourselves up. Okay? 
Again, why am I talking about all this stuff? Okay? 
There is a world of infinite possibilities, most of which 
we never see. Okay? It's like we're inside Carlsbad 
Caverns only we forgot our flashlight, so we're 
stumbling around, okay, we hold up a match and we 
see the pool of light around us and we go, "Wow, this 
is the world.” Okay? In the meantime, we've got this 
incredible splendor and wonder all around you and 
you don't see it because you're not capable of 
perceiving it. Well, for those of you who've been 
paying attention, what is the single most important 
tool that we have that allows us to perceive reality? 

Audience: Our eyes.  

Major Marks: It's our words. It's the concepts we use 
to define and structure the universe around us. Okay? 
The universe is, the universe exists, it's there. It 
doesn't know about us, okay? We are a biological  

background image

 

143

infestation that got out of control. Okay? We are more 
spools that got uppity and started thinking that, you 
know, we're it.  
 

Ross: Life is a sexually transmitted disease invariably 
fatal.  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: When you start to change the words 
that you use, when you change how you string them 
together, you change your very perception of reality. 
And as you start to use words differently in your 
communication with the ones you love, with the ones 
that you may like to love, with the ones that you're 
doing business with, with the person sitting next to 
you on the subway, you're changing their reality, too. 
Okay. I'm a hypnotist. He likes to say I'm one of the 
best hypnotists, most powerful hypnotists he's ever 
met. I don't know, they may or may not be true. I do 
know that I'm real damn good at what I do. And the 
only thing I have to work with is my voice and my 
words. Okay? And I've found that all I have to do is 
talk to someone, I can touch them, I can heal them, I 
can change their life forever, and by listening to 
myself do it, I've erased all the lines around my box. 
Speed seduction context, I walk up to Freda here, 
okay, and I am so engrossed with nipple distention, 
green light.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Major Mark: If I am so engrossed in what's going on 
in my head with, what was that transition phrase, how 
does this pattern go? Okay? Am I doing this right? 
What comes next, I'm not paying any attention to her, 
okay, and I'm missing each and every message that 
she's putting out for my benefit because she can't 
stop communicating, none of us can stop 
communicating. Okay? It's like we're a thousand watt 
radio station and somebody welded that switch on. 
Okay? There is no way that you can not 
communicate. Now I was trained long ago and far 
away to go as far as humans possibly can to not 
communicate because if you're creeping around in the 
bush and you're surrounded by well-trained, heavily 
armed, highly motivated people who really want to kill 
you, okay, you really don't want to be broadcasting a 
lot of information. You know? Instead, you want to 
just close that puppy down and make sure that you 
just, like this little black hole, that you don't even 
exist. Even so, you can be spotted, you can be 
perceived cause you're sending out these messages. 
Okay? You're affecting your environment in each and 
every thing you do. So, it behooves you to be very, 

very careful. Okay? You had the question earlier. How 
do you do the speed seduction thing without hurting 
people? And I gave you an answer that may have 
sounded flip, but it's absolutely true. To make sure 
that y ou don't hurt people, never, ever do a hurtful 
thing. Concentrate on moving towards pleasure, 
moving towards expansion of possibilities and 
remaining highly sensitive and aware of the impact of 
your thoughts, your actions and your beliefs. Mark?  

Mark: When you were out there among those 
dangerous people, were you also watching your 
thoughts so that you weren't broadcasting ...  

Major Mark: Yeah. Okay? The, well, the most 
important thing I had to watch was doubts. Okay? Far 
more deadly than the North Vietnamese were my self-
doubts. Okay. And I had to guard against that 
constantly. Okay? Sneaky little fuckers in the bush 
with guns, I mean, you can handle that. Okay. You're 
trained for that. What you don't have a defense 
against is the crap that is going on inside your head. 
By definition that voice is already inside any 
conceivable defense you might put up. So the real 
defense against that kind of belief or that kind of 
damage that is caused by those pathological trances 
is to stay awake and just fucking don't do it. It means 
you have to be awake and aware each and every 
moment of your life. Okay? Now the good news is 
that's how is defined. Okay. You are awake every 
moment of your life, you're just not aware. Okay? So 
you're half way there already. Cool. You know? Not 
bad. The rest of the part is paying attention. Right? 

Ross: What were you saying? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That was easy. The rest of the part was 
changing ...  

Audience: Is it, is it the case that, that the stuff you 
were talking about earlier, pejorative connotations of 
any word is necessarily a pathological trance 
induction? 

Major Mark: Not necessarily. Okay. Let's take murder 
as an example. Okay? You said I would never murder 
anybody. Okay? And I'm not picking on you, but you 
were just talking during this, so I'm using your 
example. Okay? I used to murder people for a living. I 
got paid for it, but I did it within a context where it 
was okay. Okay? I was serving the national interest, I 
was protecting my buddies, and ...  

Audience: Response from audience 

Major Mark: What? 

background image

 

144

Audience: Response from audience 

Major Mark: No, by definition. I mean, the people who 
run, if the people who run the country say you go, 
you go. Now it may be really fucked, but that's how 
you define the national interest. Okay? Words do 
have true meanings. Okay? So, the thing is, you say, 
pejorative, okay ...  

Audience: I'm trying to think of a word that's 
somehow, in my own mind, have a pejorative image or 
idea in my own mind of that, does that necessarily do 
some pathological trance on me? 

Major Mark: Not necessarily. Okay? But let me ruin 
the life you had up until this moment and I'm going to 
ruin it forever. Okay? It is your responsibility to take 
each and every input, whether You generate it 
yourself or it comes from outside you, and to 
determine its validity in your life. You are responsible 
for accepting or rejecting each and every thing that 
occurs to you. Okay? There are no rules, there are no 
rules, we grew up, okay? We have rules for little kids 
because you really don't want them running with the 
scissors. So there's a rule; do not run with scissors. 
And as hypnotists we know that makes them run with 
the scissors because you imbedded the command run 
with scissors. Okay? But all these rules are meant to 
guide people who don't have a higher cognitive 
sense. Okay? Well, past the age of 9, you've got it. 
Okay? At that point, rules have less and less 
relevance in your life.  

Ross: But let me give you an answer, cause I know 
how you're processing things and it's not useful. It's  
far more, rather than sitting there obsessively 
watching your own internal dialogue going, "Is that a 
pathological ...” Fuck all that. Flush it down the toilet. 
Instead think in what you want to design in that 
would work best for you. Not just in what you say to 
yourself, but the sounds you make, what imagery you 
make, ah hah. Okay? The body feelings that you want 
to build. Do you understand? 

Audience: No, say it again.  

Ross: I know, because it's so outside of what you're 
used to ...  

?: Laughing 

Ross: Listen to me. Rather than sit there and watch 
and listen to your own internal dialogue, and go, "Oh, 
better watch out, that's a word I shouldn't use to 
myself, then I'll do ...” Fuck all that. Instead think what 
you want to design in. It's not just your responsibility 
to be aware and alert to what's coming in, it's also 
your responsibility to design in what you want to 

have. To begin to think in terms of design, rather than 
watching what's there. That's all well and good, but 
what if you began to think what's  not there yet, what 
are you not thinking about yet, now? What imagery 
have you not yet had in your mind now that would be 
more useful than you only before used to have before 
you walked in that door, but which now seem 
impossible even to get near? Because the more you 
move towards the direction of thinking what you want 
to put in rather than how can I remove it, it's there that 
doesn't serve, the more you begin to have only things 
that do serve because you wired them in rather than 
having them accidentally there. Cause see, you were 
grown, you were born and you grew up and you had 
lots of things put in there, and, you know, some of 
them serve you and some of you don't, but what's 
more useful is this; is to go, "Hey, wait a minute. 
What's not there yet, what am I not thinking about 
yet?" Because yesterday there was a time when you 
didn't have the thoughts you've already had.  

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: And tomorrow, there'll be a time when the 
thoughts you haven't yet had will be thoughts you've 
already did have. So why not determine what you're 
going to design in. And what does it mean to 
determine what you design in? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Yeah. I know. What does it mean to really stop 
and think, "What imagery do I want to put in that uh 
huh box?  If I could see myself any way I wanted to 
see myself just before I stepped off, up to talk to a 
lady, what image would I like to see?" Now, you 
probably couldn't see yourself 40 feet tall, laid back, 
bulletproof, glowing with power. And it's absolutely 
impossible, I'm sure you're way too, ... Huh? 

Audience: I have difficulty seeing that.  

Ross: Yeah, well of course you had difficulty and that 
was the problem. But listen. If you were to take image 
of yourself like this big and watch this. Watch this. 
Watch this. We're going, you ever see a jack-in-the-
box and you put in back in the box, let's push it back 
in the box, put the lid on, and now I'm going to step 
on it. It's going to bounce up out of the ground. 
Ready? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Bing. Now, look at that. Now we're going to 
push it down into the box again, give me a hand here. 
This _____ .  

Audience: Laughter.  

background image

 

145

Ross: Okay, put the lid on. Okay, now watch. I want 
you to see an image of that beautiful woman and then 
I'm going to step on this, and this image is going to 
go whoosh ready to be caught. Ready? Bing.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Now you can do this and really enjoy yourself 
and you can think . Now try and go back to thinking, 
"Well, what if I say this to her? I don't know if ...”  

Audience: I didn't think that.  

Ross: Well, whatever it was you thought. Now this is 
confusing because he's going to access where he was 
and now he's going to access where you are. Okay, 
yeah, so what am I going to do now? That's right, 
okay. Yeah. Okay, now take that 40 foot tall image, 
reach out, reach out with your hands, grab it, raise it 
up above your head and pull it down on top of 
yourself 

Audience: Now I'm facing backwards.  

Ross: Well, turn it around, that's all.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Now pull it down on top of yourself. Pull it 
down on top of yourself. Pull it down on top of 
yourself like this, whoosh. Yeah. Okay, now we've got 
through 40-foot tall eyes at that beautiful girl.  

Now remember the sequence of sounds you made in 
your head that worked best for you? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: Run them.  

Audience: I can't remember Bullwinkle, I forget.  

Ross: (Humming Bullwinkle theme). Shhh. Now watch 
this. Let's stuff it back in. Okay. Stuff it back in, you 
got it? Okay, now look here, look here, look up. Okay. 
I want you to see the beautiful girl, look at her, narrow 
your eyes a little bit, do the first of your sounds, 
whatever it might be. Okay. That's the first one. Let's 
do this. Okay. Stop. Do your sounds, now see the girl, 
narrow your eyes a little bit, step on your jack in the 
box, ding, make the other sounds.  

Audience: Okay 

Ross: That, that works pretty good? 

Audience: Actually, the most powerful thing for me is 
that, is that when, when you did the 40 foot tall thing 
for the, for the very first time where something's, I 
actually saw me as opposed to like yesterday where I 
saw like Calvin in the in the comic strip who's, Calvin's 
probably not the best in  

Audience: Laughter. I mean, this is, this is real. I mean 
like ... Kind of, kind of like a blondish guy who's 
maybe that size or something. It's just like, but, you 
know, if I were to look in the mirror, I would see what I 
saw then, but that's one thing I had difficulties when I 
visualized me I, what do I look like? 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: I really don't know, until now.  

Ross: Until now.  

Audience: Till now.  

Ross: Look at it there. Now you're not looking it there. 
Watch this. Take a deep breath. Now blow out 
through your mouth and put a golden color to that 
image. You don't need to touch it. Take another 
breath, blow out again. Okay, let it out more easy than 
that. you knock the stand ... Now look at it 

Audience: Let's hope.  

Ross: Yeah, we'll, well, I don't want to hope. I just go 
out and ask for it. Okay? We're going to put this 
together for all of you tomorrow. But see the thing is I 
watch how people are talking and I want to see what's 
more useful. I, I haven't grown out of it yet 
completely. I have t do this. Someone came to me in 
my gym. She's a friend of my trainer and she said, "I'm 
going to take this NLP weekend course with this guy, 
blank blank.” Okay? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And what do you think of Mr. Blank Blank? 
And I said, "Well, you know, really ...” And my trainer 
yelled at me. She says, "You're going to make her feel 
like a dumbass.” I said, "If she goes to see what's, 
what's this person's name, she is a dumbass.” She 
said, "Well, you go tell her, go support her decision, 
you were not nice.” So I went and, you know, cause 
my trainer will beat me up if I don't. So, you know 
what this guy did? He taught s omething called the 
Metamodel. The Metamodel is a set of questions you 
give to a client who comes in to help that client clear 
up their internal dialogue. But it's not meant to be 
used on yourself If you use the Metamodel on 
yourself, what you do is wind up in this endless loop 
of looking at your own internal dialogue to see if its 
accurate, true or correct. So she was looping, it was 
completely confused. And so you want to, when 
someone asks for a change, you want to see if they're 
stuck in a certain way of doing things. And it would 
not be useful for him to loop on looking at what 
thoughts or, or, or pathological _____ . Instead, it's 
far more important to you if _____ what you want. 

background image

 

146

Okay? Oh, by the way, the more you find that the 
images of what you want _____ do that, the more 
motivated you'll feel towards moving towards things. 
Do you ever have to argue yourself into doing 
things? 

Audience: Less so in the recent past than in the more 
recent past.  

Audience: yeah.  

Ross: Whoosh, whoosh.  

Audience: _____ t hat picture I see.  

Ross: You know what? Do it with your own arms. 
Take another picture that you can't see, very large, 
pick one. Pick a picture that's small for you.  

Audience: Okay. But, all my memories I can, I can see 
them so ...  

Ross: Okay, make it bigger. How would you make a 
picture bigger? What would you do? 

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Grab a hold of it. Whoosh.  

 

Yates: This is the end of Side 13 of the Basic Speed 
Seduction Seminar

Tape 7 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 14 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: Okay. But what if what you wanted to do was 
so compelling and motivating, cause it's a big bright 
picture.  

Audience: Yeah, I have, I have hard time seeing big 
bright pictures unless ...  

Ross: Oh, yeah? 

Audience: yeah.  

Ross: Whoosh, whoosh.  

Audience: _____ that picture I see.  

Ross: You know what? Do it with your own arms. 
Take another picture that can't see very large, pick 
one. Pick a picture that's small for you.  

Audience: Okay. But all my memories, I can, I can see 
them.  

Ross: Okay. Make it bigger. How would you make a 
picture bigger? What would you do? 

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Grab a hold of it. Whoosh. And then what? 
Whoosh. Yeah. Does that make the memory more 
vivid? 

Audience: Oh, yeah.  

Ross: More enjoyable? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: And you'll notice that if you were to take each 
and every memory that really serves and supports 
your moving in a completely new way and found that 
in your dream at night, you made those whoosh, 
whoosh, whoosh, and all the ones that didn't work ...  

Audience: Right. It's not the memories but the design 
that, that I ...  

Ross: Exactly.  

Audience: the memories because I recall them to a 
greater lesser extent. I can't picture those.  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: But the things that I want to design ...  

Ross: The possibilities ...  

Audience: I, I, I, I can't, I can think them, I can't see 
them.  

Ross: Oh yeah? Oh, see what he did. He said I can 
think them _____ back here. God, you're fucking 
stubborn. I'm going to ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: If I have to pull it out of you, I will. It's like 
pulling teeth. You want to give me a hand, Kim? Let's 
take this one. Pop.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Alright. Look at it.  

Audience: Ah, it's pretty blank.  

Ross: Okay, fill it in. Take the image here that's stuck 
in your head ...  

Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: Put it on a slingshot and ...  

Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: Fling it out here.  

Audience: Now it's like, color like a _____ .  

Ross: Okay, good. Well good. So that means the 
colors are there.  

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay. So notice as they begin coalesce into 
something.  

Audience: Alright. Now I see your hand.  

Ross: Okay. My hand is gone.  

Audience: Okay.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: What you can do this tonight in a dream.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: All right.  

Major Mark: As to the original question, constantly ...  

Ross: Oh, sorry.  

Major Mark: To, ...  

Ross: But it was useful.  

Major Mark: Be that as it may, yeah it was. It was 
great. But the thing is, constantly looking for 
examples of pathological trance is a pathological 
trance. Okay? 

Audience: laughter 

background image

 

148

Major Mark: Because ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Major Mark: You're ...  

Ross: Tie that knot tighter 

Major Mark: You're focusing your awareness way 
down too small. I mean you can easily recognize 
everyone has the ability t o recognize when they're 
being held back, when they're feeling bad, when 
things aren't going the way you want. It's only 
important to be able to recognize it long enough for 
you to let go, Okay? You don't have to go looking for 
it because your unconscious is a happy little slave. If 
you want to go out looking for each and every 
example of how you're, you hold yourself back, even 
if you don't do it, you will. Because your unconscious 
will generate lots of things for you to find. Okay? Be 
careful about your language.  

Ross: How are we doing here on presentation time? 
You want to wrap it or you ...  

Major Mark: No, I, I, I'm, I'm basically done.  

Ross: Let's give him a thunderous 

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Ross: Because it's process language. We are trained, 
there's a difference between processed language and 
content. Let me give you, content is facts, figures, 
data that you can enter into a computer. Okay? 
Anything that you could put in a computer database 
in content. This pen is 50 percent more biodegradable 
than the other leading brand. It comes in 10 designer 
colors. Now what did I just say? 

Audience: Was that a, you described all the 
characteristics ...  

Ross: Well tell me what I said. What, how many 
colors does it come in? 

Audience: 10 different colors.  

Ross: How more, how, what percentage more 
biodegradable is it than the other leading brand? 

Audience: I believe it, that.  

Ross: I said 50, but okay.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Okay 

Audience: But, but if it came ...  

10 percent or something like 

Ross: Okay, so I'm giving you content, But listen to 

this. Here's process language. I'm going to sell you 
pens. You work for some company that needs to buy 
a lot of pens. I'll say, I'll say to you, "You know, I 
don't know what it is you do when you go inside and 
you think of the ideal pen product that you want for 
this company, but as you think about that, as you 
begin to really get clear on exactly the qualities and 
characteristics of such a writing instrument, and you 
begin to think of everything I say to you in exactly 
that way, in exactly along those lines, I’m not sure 
exactly what thoughts will begin to appear in your 
mind, but I think it will help to make this presentation 
a lot more enjoyable, a lot more fun and I want you to 
realize that if you have any questions, just feel free to 
ask me. Because understanding is part of the process 
of making a good decision today with me.” So. what 
did I just say? 

Audience: I am completely tranced out.  

Ross: I know.  

Audience: Laughter and applause.  

Ross: Now, now, can you repeat any of that? 
Audience: Part of it was you couldn't, you didn't 
know what factors, and that's it.  

Ross: Yeah. Yeah.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Now, but, but as I did that, were you thinking, 
as I did that, what were you thinking in your head? 

Audience: I, I, I was thinking it was good, but I 
couldn't ...  

Ross: Were you thinking of what kind of pen you 
would like and what you would like in that pen? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: You may be, I think you were unconsciously. 
See, here's the thing. When you use that kind of 
vague language, people will go, "I don't know how 
you were able to tell me exactly what I was looking 
for.” And I didn't. All I did was tell you to think about 
it. The reason why you can't remember it and why 
they can't remember it, this is why I say don't worry 
about it when you see articles where they give 
patterns like, like the articles they write about me, 
where they give away my patterns. People go, "Oh, 
no. They'll recognize it.” No they won't. People have 
amnesia for process language. They do not remember 
it. They only undergo a process and wind up 
wondering why.  

Audience: I tried to recall what I actually said to the 
girl 30 minutes later and I can't recall it.

Ross: That's why I recommend you all keep a journal 
and write down what you said so you can keep track. 
I have seduction journals - you're never going to get 
to see them  - but here's one, no this is not one. I keep 
a seduction journal where I write down exactly what I 
said, what responses I got, and I date it. Keep a 
journal. Keep a journal. Keep a journal. Keep a 
journal. And by the way, go and buy a journal and 
keep it. And make an entry every freaking day, even if 
it's to say, "I did nothing today.” Or even if it's, even 
if it's to say, "Today I just worked with one pattern. I 
wrote it out and I spoke it out loud.” By the way, the 
way, one of the ways to rehearse these patterns is out 
loud. How do you rehearse the patterns? 

Audience: Out loud.  

Ross: It's okay to diagram them, it's okay to write them 
out on flash cards, but you must rehearse them out 
loud. Rehearse them out loud, listen, look up here, in 
the exact posture you'd be in if you were using them. 
So if you're going, if you want to rehearse walking up 
and talking to women, don't rehearse it sitting down. 
Rehearse it as if you're actually there, do, take some 
steps, and imagine a woman in front and speak, and 
Kim's going to show you how to do some of this, 
speak with the pace and the tonality and the volume 
you actually use if there were a real woman right in 
front of you. Do not rehearse in the mirror. Why 
should you not rehearse in the mirror? Because if you 
rehearse in the mirror, it's telling your brain only do 
this when you see yourself looking back at yourself. 
Which means the only time you're going to be 
seducing is when you're having an out of body 
experience. And that's a different seminar.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? Yes sir.  

Audience: How do you access them when you need 
them? 

Ross: You rehearse. Now this is a very, and listen to 
me, this is important question. This is a big rule of 
change. I want you to write this down. You get what 
you rehearse. You get what you rehearse. If you want 
a new behavior, you must rehearse it, explicitly and 
vividly, over and over and over again. If you don't, 
your brain won't know what to do different and it'll 
just do what's familiar. This is the structure of a 
slump. Let me show you something. Oh man, honey, 
do I need some work here. I pinched something. Okay, 
I can write on this. That's all right. This is the 
structure of a slump. If you draw a circle, you at home 
who are listening, as you reach for your wallet and 
pick up the phone, draw a circle.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Hey, compared to some of these evangelists on 
TV, I am a third-rate amateur. Oh, there's one of them 
who I really admire because no matter how many 
times he's convicted of a crime, he comes right back, 
and I got to admire that man, that's faith.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "I'm sorry. I fucked it up so bad last time. Now 
you got to send me more money cause I'm in more 
trouble. Oh.” 

Audience: Is that Jimmy Swaggert? 

Ross: Ah, well, I don't want to name names.  

Audience: Yeah. Comment from audience. Laughter.  

Ross: "My legal bill's are huge. Satan is oppressing 
me. It was only one prostitute, so what if she was  five 
and ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay. You get, now this is a very important 
principle for human change. I want you guys all to get 
this. I want you to look up here and I'll give you 
plenty of time to write it down, I'll repeat it three times. 
I want you to look up here to really get it. I want you 
to understand this. So, you know, as you think, now, 
watch him go into trance again. I don't even have to 
look at him or say anything. Cause some of you 
probably didn't notice it as he was breathing, I was 
pacing his breathing. That's right, with the movement 
of the pen. I can look over here, I can stand up on one 
foot like this, and talk to you about Bullwinkle, Rocky, 
the situation in China, because what can happen 
when a person can go all the way down, and this is a 
magic pen. It's the pen of imagination and new 
possibility and as you take it from me with your 
imaginary hands, what does it mean to have imaginary 
hands? And you close your eyes all the way, lids 
down, now. And you find that movie screen in  your 
mind where anything can be possible, anything can 
be tried on, anything can be tried out. All the way 
down, You can take this magic marker, for that's what 
it's called, and the magical thing about the marker is, 
you can mark up new possibilities for yourself Okay. 
Anyway. So, listen. This is a very important principle. 
Look up here, I'll repeat it three times. Understand it 
the first time. There's no difference between what you 
dwell on mentally, between what you mentally review, 
and what you're rehearsing to do the next time out. 
This is why if you dwell on your mistakes, you know 
what you're doing? You're inadvertently, without 
knowing it, rehearsing those mistakes so your brain 

background image

 

150

will do them the next time around. That's how ...  

Audience: Why do I always fuck up? 

Ross: Yeah. If you ask questions like "Why do I 
always fuck up?" you're going to review the times 
you fucked up and the brain is an obedient little slave. 
It goes, "Oh, he's giving me these images. It must be 
what he wants me to do the next t ime around. So 
that's what I do.” So you review, that equals shitty 
behavior, that leads to limiting beliefs, that leads to 
shitty questions which leads to shitty reviewing and 
you're stuck in this shitty circle. It's actually, hang on 
a minute. It's actually quite brilliant. There's a nice 
structure there. Yes sir.  

Audience: It's important, though, for me, to 
acknowledge, okay, I made a mistake, that's over, 
that's history, this is now.  

Ross: Yes. That's, that's perfect. And you, you're 
telling me congruently. See, you're much different 
than you were the last two days. I appreciate this. 
You, and also, his gestures told me that that's really 
what he does. He takes it, throws it over his shoulder. 
That's fine. But I'm talking about dwelling on 
something. If you dwell on it over and over again, 
there's no difference between what you dwell on and 
what you rehearse. So watch what you put in there. 
Okay? The same structure for the slump is the 
structure for excellence. A structure for excellence 
saying, "Hey, what did I do really well?" To review it 
over and over and then when the, it comes time to do 
it, your brain automatically does it for your, it builds 
the belief that says, "Yes, I can continue' to improve 
and learn to do anything well.” It's the same structure, 
different content. See, you're probably well aware of 
this, the content of your thoughts, but you probably 
weren't aware of the structure. Cause the mind has 
amnesia and is unaware of structure and, structure 
and form. The more you become aware of the 
structure and form of human thought rather than the 
content, the more powerful you be, you begin to 
become cause you see levels of experience that other 
people aren't even aware are there. When you master 
this stuff, you are operating at a different level of 
understanding, cause, how many people were aware 
of the exact nature of this structure before I just talked 
about it? Okay? For a lot of you, it's the first time you 
even realized that structure was there. Okay? Most 
people in the world aren't even aware the structure is 
there. They know they have these shitty thoughts, 
but they're not aware, they're very familiar with the 
content. If you ask them, "What are your shitty 
thoughts?" they could tell you. But they're not aware 
that this is the structure and the form. To the extent 

that you become students of structure and form, you 
not only learn how to do patterns but you learn how 
to move people at a much deeper level. You becomes 
masters of levels that most people don't even know 
are there. And there are a lot of them. There are a lot 
we won't teach in this seminar. Yes.  

Audience: When we do behavior beliefs ...  

Ross: And the questions you ask yourself Well, if I 
say to you, what's your name? 

Audience: Jason.  

Ross: If I say Jason, ask your, close your eyes and 
ask yourself this question. Why do I always fuck it up 
with the women I really want? Ask yourself that 
question. What pops into your mind, what image 
pops into your mind when you ask yourself that? 

Jason: Ali, the stuff we were doing yesterday when I 
was up there. It seems to be an _____ bearing 
question still.  

Ross: Yeah. The questions you ask tend to generate 
the imagery in your mind. Forgive me. My throat is 
giving me some challenges today. By the way, the 
guy, you guys look different today. Yo u look much 
more alert.  

Audience: On the pattern languaging does it, I 
imagine it works well on a conscious level with 
women, too, because they don't talk in statistics data, 
they ...  

Ross: Well, consciously, here's what they're aware of 
Consciously what they're aware of is a sense of real 
comfort that they met someone who talks about 
things that interest them. But they still won't 
remember what you said. And in fact, if you tell them 
what you said, they don't care. I, when my early career 
in doing this, I would tell women after I was sleeping 
with them, here's what I did with you. And they went, 
"No, you didn't do that. I, I, I love you cause you're 
this and this and this.” And I go, "No, that's what I 
did.” They go, and they just rationalize it. They go, 
"Oh my god, someone who cared enough about me to 
learn to talk this way. Wow, great.” 

Audience: Laughter Ross: I'm not kidding. I'm not 
kidding. They think it's wonderful that someone cared 
enough about pleasing women that it would go to all 
this trouble.  

?: Cause he can talk for an hour saying nothing.  

Ross: Ahhhh.  

Audience: laughter.

Ross: You just got stabbed in the throat and in the 
back.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Well, wait. He's making a good point. He, he, 
he's, he's well, he's making a good point. Shhh. He's 
making a good ...  

Girl: He's implying that women are naturally better at 
this than guys.  

Ross: Yeah, There you go Bunny.  

Audience: laughter 

Bunny: Women are naturally, naturally master 
bullshitters, we can talk on the phone, we can give 
rapport to anybody, whereas guys are, can't do it. 
We're better at this. That's what _____ .  

?: _____ clueless about that and I'm learning how to 
_____ .  

Ross: But you're, but you're leaving that cluelessness 
behind.  

Audience: Comments from audience.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: And that's to think about, yeah, how 
much energy women put into communicating in this 
way, into understanding relationship. I mean the 
relationship books are all bought by women for most 
part to, you know, that's what they use to sell a lot of 
the glamour magazines, and they're, and they focus as 
they talk to other people about relationships, the way 
people interact, what they could have done better, 
what they could have done worse. And it's now 
finally that, you know, some guys are, have gotten it 
together enough, like you guys to come out here and 
realize it's worth the effort as well. Ross: That right. 
We came out from our underground lab in Los 
Alamos ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Doctor Teller and I, yes sir. What's your name? 

Audience: Roger.  

Ross: What's up Roger?  

Roger: There's a book by Deborah Tannin that talks 
to it, I think the name is called WOMEN AND MEN 
DON'T UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Roger: It talks about how men, women communicate, 
They speak on like higher _____ planes. They're 
competing when they talk about sports or politics. 

They're competing to show ...  

Ross: Yeah. But women compete, too. You should 
hear a woman talk about another woman's looks 
behind her back.  

Audience: Oh yeah. Laughter.  

Roger: While women supposedly as the theory goes 
speak more on a bonding terms, you know, "Oh, the 
same thing happened to me yesterday. I, I, I 
experienced what you're going through.” 

Ross: Right.  

Roger: So it's more of a bonding pattern.  

Ross: Right.  

Roger: Rather than a competing ...  

Ross: Right.  

Roger: Competitive pattern.  

Ross: And ...  

Roger: Men are supposedly ...  

Ross: And, and, yeah, and therefore, yeah, I agree. 
And the conclusion, I agree with you, you're right.  

Roger: All I'm saying in terms of what we're talking 
about it seems to work into it, if you can speak the 
language, the so-called language of women which, 
according to this theory, is that, you know, they like 
to bond, they want to get to know one another, they 
...  

Ross: Well, but that's n ot quite what I'm talking about. 
Listen to me. That's not quite what I'm talking about. 
I'm talking about the language of process. See, all 
these books written for women don't really help the 
women. If they did, they wouldn't need any more 
books. Think about it. There are millions of books, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There are millions of books, there are, I would 
say conservatively there are at least 500 different 
titles on the subject of losing weight and making 
money. But we don't have a world filled with skinny 
millionaires. So something is wrong somewhere. Ah, 
what's wrong is they're still giving content. These 
books are content books where they give different 
pieces of information rather than getting people to 
focus on process and form. What I'm teaching is sort 
of Zen-like. Zen is not about content. Zen is about the 
process of thought and engaging in different kinds of 
thought process. Okay? But let's skip; let's move on. 
What I want to do now is take one minute to turn this 
off and switch on to a t ape that we will not use as part

of the course.  

?: That's what we've done.  

Ross: Oh, but I did want to use this part. I want ...  

?: We'll transfer.  

Ross: All right.  

?: This may be _____ to edit.  

Ross: Well, okay. Can you edit using this equipment? 

?: It's a special type.  

Ross: All right, okay.  

?: You're 

Ross: Okay, but the last part I want is part of the 
course we're doing. Okay. I want to bring people up 
now, I want to talk about Manny the Martian. How 
many people did the exercise? Okay? All right, good. 
How many new people who have never been to the 
seminar before, this is their first seminar, did not do 
the exercise? 

Audience: I didn't do it, but I did something else.  

Ross: Well, okay. All right, let's talk to people who ...  

Audience: Comment from audience 

Ross: I just went into trance there. Of course if I didn't 
do it, then I like, implication, you had to do something 
else. Let's talk to some people who did it and had 
some fun learning it. Someone raise your hand if you 
did it and had a fun learning. Why, I know you would 
do it. One of you come up here.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You would go up and go, "My name is Peter 
Penis.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I don't think ...  

?: _____ let me show you _____ penis.  

Ross: Ah, the battery on this is low. We need to have 
a battery replacement. By the way, Brother Orion? 

Girl: Now, how fast do you think I ...  

Audience: I, I had no idea where to go from there.  

Ross: There was no where to go from there.  

Audience: I said, and I said, "Great. Would you like 
some more?"

Ross & Audience: Laughter

154

Audience: And she said, "Sure.” I said, "Okay.” 

Ross: Okay. Did you try it with anyone else? 

Audience: I didn't try that but I did try something else 
I'd never done before.  

Ross: Oh. Follow directions. But tell us what you did.  

Audience: The, the hostess who seated us, very 
attractive young lady, and ...  

Ross: I've noticed that's often the case.  

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: The ugly ones are in the kitchen.  

Audience: Laughter 

Audience: And I said, she seated us, and asked blah, 
blah, blah, blah. And I said, I put my hand to my 
forehead to be, you know, making a gesture, I said, "I 
know you.” 

Ross: Ah.  

Audience: "Have you lived around here for a while?" 
And I kept my hand on my forehead. And she said, 
"Yeah, a couple of years.” And I said, "I know where 
it is. I've been reading a book on angels and you're on 
the cover.” 

Ross: Ha, ha, very good. And how did she respond? 

Audience: And she was, and I was, I was shaking, 
"My name's Paul.” 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: And I held on to her hand for a good 
minute ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: And she's very, very busy, it was, you 
know, Saturday night at ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: TGI Friday.  

Ross: How did she respond when you said, "you 
were on the cover?" Did she smile and laugh? 

Audience: She smiled, she glowed ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: It was like she 

Ross: Good.  

Audience: tilted her head and it was ...  

Ross: Now that's an example of the kind of thing 
where if you tell a guy that would work, he'd go, "No

way, " but women respond to it. Excellent, very good.  

Audience: I never would have tried that.  

Ross: No. Well, good, good. Give him a big hand. 
You're making good progress.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: Ah, the point of the exercise is, is to get you, 
number one, to get you moving so you can actually 
say something. And, by the way, this is another 
exercise where we, where we're forgetting about the 
content. We're giving you nonsense content so 
instead you can focus on the process. And the 
process is to go up, get moving without hesitation, 
move, say something, and watch the response. And 
to train your attention to go somewhere other than 
inward into your own internal dialogue and instead 
direct it outward and watch the response you're 
getting. Those of you who did not do the exercise are 
robbing yourselves of a very important skillset that 
you need to learn. Speed seduction is not just about 
knowing what words to say, it's also about noticing 
responses and paying attention. Hang on. Okay? 
Knowing what responses to look for and what to 
listen for is as important a pattern of seduction as 
knowing all the words. So, who didn't do the exercise? 
My purpose is not to shame you but to find out if 
there's something I can do to facilitate you're doing 
the exercise. Is there something I could have told you 
that ...  

Audience: I was tired and went to sleep.  

Ross: Okay. No problem. I understand, You? 

Audience: I just, I don't know, I just didn't want to do 
it. It seemed too goofy so I went up to a waitress ...  

Ross: Goofy is the point.  

Audience: Yeah, I guess so. So I went up to a 
waitress and I, I told her she was ... Ross: No, I don't 
want to hear this.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: This is not important. My point is I want you to 
do something goofy because that takes your mind off 
of having to g et a result and allows you, frees you up, 
to pay attention to the other person's response. You 
understand? Who else didn't do it? Well, that's okay. 
You didn't do it? Bad boy. Why didn't you do it? By 
the way, thank you for this. It's helping.  

Audience: Because, I, I was, I got, I got _____ onto 
the concept of frameworks and I got absorbed in that 

whole idea which I hadn't understood before and I 

wanted to practice that.  

Ross: Okay. But you are, but you will do the exercise? 
Do it several times. Yes sir.  

Audience: I didn't do it.  

Ross: Why not? 

Audience: I thought it was goofy, but ...  

Ross: It is ...  

Audience: I, I should do it.  

Ross: It, hang on. It is goo, wait. Let's get this out of 
the way. It is goofy. I designed it to be goofy. I 
designed it to be goofy. If it's goofy then you don't 
have to worry about whether she accepts or rejects 
you cause that's not the point anyway.  

Audience: That's true.  

Ross: That's the, I made it goofy okay? 

Audience: I watched people get kicked out of the mall 
being goofy.  

Ross: You got kicked out? 

Audience: Oh yeah. What? 

Ross: All right.  

Audience: Applause and cheers.  

Ross: He gets some kind of tape or something. Get 
him a tape. That's the whole point.  

Audience: I ran into him when five security guards 

?: What happened? 

Ross: Would they physically grab you? They didn't 
put their hands on you? Tell us.  

?: Tell us the story. Tell us about it.  

Audience: I went up to like five people, five women ...  

Ross: In a group or separately? 

Audience: Separately, and _____ I didn't make it like, 
I made to a, I made it past like five stores, didn't 

even go through the whole mall. And all of a sudden I 
caught beautiful-looking woman in a black dress who 
actually worked there in a store. And all of a sudden, 
you know, all the responses were like, "uhhh,  

I don't know what the hell you're talking about, you 
know.” Now most of them said they, they don't see 
any, they don't have any ...  

Ross: Uh huh. So, get to the security guards. Do they 
come running after you? 

background image

 

156

Audience: Twenty security guards come on to me and 
store owner ...  

Ross: What did they say? 

Audience: Guy comes up and he's like, "Did you make 
some vulgar remarks ...”  

Ross: No.  

Audience: "to a person?" I was like, "No.” 

Ross: You should go, "We Martians don't understand 
vulgarity.” 

Audience: Laughter 

?: Or you talk to him and say, "My name is Manny 
Martian.” 

Audience: I told him, and, the drill like, "Have you 
been in the store?" I was like, "No, I didn't even walk 
through the whole store yet. I was, I just walked in.” 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: You know, and they're, they're like, "Well, 
let's go and find out.” You know? And go up there 
and there she is, you know, standing there  

putting up clothes on the rack, you know, and she's 
like, "Yeah, that's him.” You know? 

Ross & Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Good, good for you.  

?: You know what I'd say to him? 

Ross: Now, now ...  

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Now, if you can do this, then you can, then, if 
you can do this, then it's going to be easy to walk up 
say, "Forgive the interruption. I just want to tell I 
think you are absolutely breathtaking and I had to 
meet you.” By the way, if you were to try this exercise 
with a haircut and an Armani's suit? Different ball of 
wax.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: What did you say to her?  

Audience: I said, "Hello, . Excuse me. Can I tell you 
something? Hello. My name is Manny Martian. What 
flavor, flavor bowling ball do you like?" 

Brother Orion: Then what did she say? 

Audience: Response 

?: _____ come on in.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: We're having fun. Oh my god, look. You walk in 
and look at this wonderful scene. Look, look, look.  

?: The ducklings.  

Ross: The ducklings.  

?: _____ two or three words wrong.  

Ross: That's so cute.  

?: I'll say _____ .  

Ross: Look at that. He's out here, so mom's out with 
her little ducklings.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Well, sit up here. Come on in.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Come in and have a seat. That's so funny. Get 
him, give him a big hand.  

Audience: Applause. Response from audience.  

Ross: Did you? 

Audience: The security guards were ...  

Ross: We have a special guest. Come up just to say 
hello just for a second. This is my good friend and

Ross: Ha, ha. So Rex is going to be training with us in 
Cancun, yes. So, I'm excited. Go have a seat.  

Rex: Thank you.  

Ross: All right. Good.  

Rex: Good to see you all. I'll be here for a little while.  

Ross: And Rex has also got some other cool skills. 
He's an actor, he was a magician. The real cool thing 
is Rex also used to be a street preacher. Yeah? 

Rex: Yeah.  

Ross: An evangelist? That's so cool. Do you ever run 
into people who you converted back in your early 
career? 

Rex: Oh, yeah.  

Ross: Really? This is cool. I got to ask you. Like, what 
do you tell them? Do they say ...  

Rex: I go, pray to God, keep going.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That is so cool.  

Rex: It's not my job to be a stumbling block. You 
know? It's my job to allow people to grow and 
develop in whatever way they choose for themselves 
and so I go _____ , If they go, "Why are you doing 
what you do?" I go, "Cause I'm moving on and 
developing. God bless you.”  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: That's too funny.  

Rex: I have _____ .  

Ross: Cool. Yeah. You know, give them out at the 
break. And also Rex is going to be a dad soon, right? 

Rex: Yeah.  

Ross: How's that going? When, when is Carolyn due? 

Rex: July, towards the end of July. Ross: July. Cool. 
Cool. His wife has the greatest voice. Okay? Do not 
call 1-800-REXSYKES and try to speed seduce his 
wife.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Cause she's used to it. Okay. Who else did the 
exercise and wants to come up and share? Come on 
up. Amos. Yes. Give him a hand. All right.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Rex? Rex? Just so you know what we're talking 
about, I gave people the assignment, it's sort of, it's 

an exercise in learning to pay attention to people's 
responses. So I gave the assignment of going out and 
saying, walking up to women and saying, "Excuse me. 
Forgive the interruption. I just want to tell you my 
name is Manny Martian. What's your favorite 
flavored bowling ball?" And then their job was to 
watch the response the person had when they went 
inside to process it and what they looked like when 
they came back out. okay? So, tell us about it. What 
did you do? 

Amos: Well, I didn't do it last night like I was 
supposed to. I ...  

Ross: Put your hand out. No, no. Like that. Aversion 
therapy.  

Amos: I tried, but I had problems. I had like about four 
or five very good opportunities and I just didn't do it.  

Ross: Okay, let's talk about that. Let's talk about it. 
Stop for a minute. So, let's talk about how you know 
when you have an opportunity. So what do you mean 
by that? What was the opportunity? 

Amos: Well, there were women walking by ...  

Ross: Uh hmm.  

Amos: And ...  

Ross: Women were walking by.  

Amos: Well I was going out ...  

Ross: What neighborhood were you in? Cause I want 
to go.  

Amos: No, no, I was walking along the street and like 
one instance, I was walking down the street and this 
waitress was coming out of the restaurant.  

Ross: Uh hmm.  

Amos: She was going to get in a car to leave and 
instead of me going, going up to her and s aying 
something, I just heard a voice in my mind that said, 
tin, no ...”  

Ross: Stop.  

Amos: "She wouldn't want ...”  

Ross: Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, Stop, stop. Now 
here's where we're going to deal with something we 
did earlier. What did he say? He said, "I heard a voice 
in her, my mind. It said ...” What was the sound the 
voice made? 

Amos: It said, "No.” 

Ross: No. Before it said that, it made a sound. What 
was the sound it made? Ahhhh.  

background image

 

158

Amos: Ah, yeah, something ...  

Ross: All right. I'm going, we're going to play a game, 
We're going to play a ventriloquist dummy. Okay? 

Amos: Ahh.  

Ross: l have to do that sound. So put your hand on 
my back. I'm your dummy. Okay? No, here's where 
you operate the dummy. Okay? Now, l want to make 
that sound in my mind exa ctly the way you made it. 
So what's the sound I make? 

Amos: It said, "Ahhh, no.” 

Ross: Before you do the dialogue, just make the 
sound.  

Amos: Ahhh.  

Ross: Like that? Abh? 

Amos: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay. I want you to try something. Close your 
eyes. Say that sound again.  

Amos: Ahh.  

Ross: Ahh. Let's do it again.  

Amos & Ross: Ahh.  

Ross: I think I got it. Ahh, ahh. Okay. Now, can you 
go, ah hah? 

Amos: Ah hah.  

Ross: Okay. Put your hand here. You want to help him 
with this Kim? You want to help him a little bit now? 
Before you do your major presentation? Yeah? Okay. 
Kim'll come up and help me with this cause she's ...  

Kim: We're going to do it.  

Ross: Okay. Okay. Now, look at me. Can you go, "You 
ever seen something so delicious that you really, you 
had to put it in your mouth? It was really good to eat. 
Ahhhh.” Or, "Have you ever come home from a really 
hard day and relaxed completely and went ahhhhh?" 
You ever done that? 

Amos: Yeah.  

Ross: Can you make that sound? 

Amos: Ahhhh.  

Ross: Ahhhh. Okay. So, I want you to put your hand 
on my back. Okay, I'm your dummy. Okay, let's do the 
sound that you made it the first way.  

Amos: Ahhh.  

Ross: Ahhh. Okay. Now can you do the relaxed kind 

of ahhh? 

Amos: Ahhhhh.  

Ross: Ahhhhh. That's right. Now close your eyes. 
Imagine you see those women and instead of making 
an AHHH go ahhhh.  

Amos: Ahhh.  

Ross: Here watch this. Put your shoulders up like this. 
Look at me. Now drop them as you go ahhhh.  

Amos: Ahhh. Ross: Yeah. Exactly. Okay, now in your 
head, exactly, this feels different. Now look. Close 
your eyes. Now when you see the woman, instead of 
going AHHH go, put your shoulders up and drop 
them and go ahhhh.  

Amos: Ahhh.  

Ross: Yeah, make that sound in your head. There you 
go. Want to do a little with him? 

Kim: You already got him _____ .  

Ross: You already got him, hahahaha. Okay? Feels 
different? 

Amos: Yes.  

Ross: Now, remember what I said the other day. I said 
the sounds you make on the inside will determine 
what circuits you open, what dialogue you engage in. 
It's not what you said to yourself It's that sound you 
make before you start the dialogue that determines 
what circuits are going to open. Now, given what you 
did, no one could have done it. I guarantee you if you 
took anyone off the street and had them make that 
sound in their head, not a single person would have 
been able to go up and do it. Absence and real 
stimulus like a gun to their head. Cause then they 
would have gone "AH my fucking god, I better go do 
it!" Okay? So, granted that you made that sound in 
your head, it is not your fault. It's the sound's fault.  

Amos: Okay.  

Ross: Okay? Granted it's the sound's fault, let's blame 
the sound and tell the sound, "Fuck you, You're never 
coming around again.” Okay? 

Amos: All right.  

Ross: It's like a, if you were driving down the street, 
okay? And there's a little midget in the front seat and 
every time you got near a car it went, "Oh my god. 
Fucking look out. AHHH.” You know? You'd be 
crashed.  

Audience: Laughter 

background image

 

159

Ross: You know. It's not your fault. It's the midget's 
fault. So you got a little midget sound and you're 
going to get rid of it. Okay? 

Amos: All right. Ross: All right.  

Amos: had one. Do … 

Ross: Oh. Let me show you how you do that. Here's 
the thing that Kim is going to be teaching later today. 
So when Kim comes up here, you really want to pay 
close attention. Not just cause she's, looks 
babe-a-liciously cute in that outfit. You do, Bunny. 
Your legs are looking good. Ummm. When you look at 
a pair of legs like that, what sound do you make to 
yourself? 

Amos: Uh huh.  

Ross: Look at him.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Just look at him. What sound do you make? 
Make it.  

Amos: Ummmin 

Ross: Unmmm. Yeah. Very good.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: She's, her legs are the instant tonality 
transformer.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: I don't even need to talk. I'll just get up here and 
flash my legs.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: Laughter. Response from audience.  

Ross: Yeah. Very good. See, now this is fun. Doesn't 
it feel better to make those sounds? 

Amos: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay. Now part of the way you make sounds 
and Kim is going to be showing you this in a very 
exquisite way, she's very good at this. I'm thrilled to 
have her here. Is, look at this. When you come home 
from a hard day at work, where are your shoulders 
usually? 

Amos: Down.  

Ross: If you, when you take, ahhh, when you really 
sigh, what do you do? 

Amos: up.  

Ross: And then you relax them. Drop them, go ahhhh. 
Do it again. Make the sound.  

Amos: Ahhh.  

Ross: Ahhh, ummm. Okay, Kim's going to work with 
you more on this and the entire room. But here's the 
thing. That is no problem. I understand how you 
didn't do it. How you didn't do it is that sound that 
was there. And that sound that was there was a big 
problem. Right? 

Amos: Right.  

Ross: For anyone. Would you agree? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: I mean, but you know, if you, as you learn to 
make different sounds in your mind you'll realize. The 
question to ask yourself is what circuits do you want 
to open in your mind? Because here's the thing. If you 
can learn to open the night circuits in your mind, 
guess what you can learn to do with her mind? 

Amos: I can open up all circuits in her mind ...  

Ross: That's right.  

Amos: But, correct circuits.  

Ross: That's right. And now when you think of, of a 
woman who you're really attracted to and really think, 
I don't want you to think of that woman right now, but 
if you were to think about her, what circuits do you 
think you'd like to have open in her mind? 

Amos: Pleasure 

Ross: Yeah 

Amos: Fantasy, fulfillment 

Ross: Yeah. Stop a minute. What if her mind was like 
the magic door in the story of Aladdin? That if you 
said the right word in the right way, the door would 
open? How would you say pleasure in order to open 
the pleasure circuit in her mind? 

Amos: Pleasure.  

Ross: Very good. Now, what if, that's exactly right. It 
feels good. What are some of the other things, 
circuits you want to open in her mind? 

Amos: Pleasure, excitement.  

Ross: Okay. How would you say excitement to open 
the excitement circuit? 

Amos: Excitement.  

Ross: How about excitement? 

Amos: Excitement.  

Ross: Yeah, good. Okay. Kim's going to work with

you more, good, give him a hand? 

Kim: That was more like it.  

Audience: Applause.  

Ross: That's good. You can stay up if you want, if 
you're comfortable. Huh.  

Kim: If I'm not doing anything.  

Ross: Oh, okay. Well then, your legs are a good 
change stimulator.  

Kim:  

Ross: No, woooo. Oooh, sit down.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Bad thing, bad thing. She knows where to hit. 
Anyone else try the exercise? Come on up brother. 
What's your name? Brother what? 

Audience: Michael 

Ross: Brother Michael, have a seat. I like this. What's 
the vest made of?  

Yates: Kind of a suede.  

Ross: Suede? 

Yates: Yeah.  

Ross: I had a lamb suede vest. Women would come 
up and go, where did they all want to feel this? 

?: Yeah, that's how it works. Ross: Yeah. Okay, talk. 
What did you do? 

Michael: Well, I was going to do the exercise last 
night, but I didn't have the opportunity.  

Ross: Uh huh.  

Michael: So, to, so I thought, well, I'm not going to 
get to do the exercise so, but I was thin king about it 
all the time, looking as I watched there with some 
friends.  

Ross: Hold on a minute. We're going to play a game 
with you. Where's my metronome? Where's my 
metronome? Is it here in the room? Okay. Well we 
don't have it. You need to slow down. You're talking 
so fast that even if people want to understand you, 
it's going by way too fast. I mean, I'm pretty hyper, 
but I'm going to have to make a cappuccino, cornhole 
cocktail ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: to keep up with your speed. So, slow down; 
we're all listening. Pace yourself. Go ahead.  

Michael: Last night, I went out to dinner with some 
friends and didn't have the opportunity. So, this 
morning I decided I was going to have some fun if I 
could find an opportunity that presented itself. And it  
did.  

Ross: Tell us about it.  

Michael: As I came out, to check out the hotel 
downtown, I, I was, didn't see anyone that looked 
particularly attractive, just didn't present itself. So I 
pretty much had given up.  

Ross: Now, hang on just a minute. Nowhere in the 
assignment did I say approach someone attractive. I 
just said approach, but go ahead.  

Michael: Anyway, well I choose to approach an 
attractive person.  

Ross: I understand.  

Michael: So, as I'm getting out of the elevator, all of a 
sudden there is s omeone there _____ at the door and 
...  

Ross: Isn't that interesting how opportunities just all 
of a sudden they're there? 

Michael: Exactly. And it presented itself and she was 
startled and she was coming on to the elevator and 
didn't see and she jumped back. And I said, "Oh, 
excuse me.” 

Ross: Could I ask you a question? 

Michael: My name is Manny Martian.  

Ross: No, but remember, the exercise was, "Excuse 
me. Forgive the interruption. I just wanted to tell you 
...” and you want to pause. Now what's the purp ose 
of pausing? What does it do when you ...  

Michael: Grabs the attention.  

Ross: Right.  

Michael: Well, I had her attention cause she was 
startled and ...  

Ross: Well, so would ...  

Michael: that was the interruption.  

Ross: So would Ted Bundy. You know.  

Michael: Anyway, it worked. And so she, she rolled 
her eyes back for a second ...  

Ross: Now hold on. Show us what she did with her 
facial expression and her body movements when she 
went inside. What did she do? Show us.  

Michael: She just went back ...

161

Ross: Like that.  

Michael: and looked up for a second and then she 
said, "I don't have any.” 

Ross: I don't have any.  

Michael: She didn't speak English very well. She got 
the thing but she just basically said, and I said, "But 
you have everything you need. Nice to see you.” 

Ross: Cool.  

Michael: So I did that.  

Ross: Cool. Is that it? 

Michael: That was my _____ . No, there were two.  

Ross: Tell us the other one, ...  

Michael: So I was about ready to ...  

Ross: then we need to take a pee break.  

Michael: All right.  

Ross: Cause I hear bladders going uhhhh.  

Michael: Should I go faster? 

Ross: No. That's all right.  

Michael: I'll slow down.  

Ross: I, I ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I have trainer ears. When you have trainer ears, 
you hear bladders squeaking and bowels rumbling 
and people leaving the room. Go ahead.  

Michael: Interesting. The second opportunity it was 
actually checking out and they said, "What's your 
room number?" and I said, "Fourteen ten.” And she 
said, "Mr. So and So?" It was the wrong one cause I 
had transposed the numbers.  

Ross: Trance posed the numbers. Yeah, go ahead.  

Michael: So, I said, "No my name is Manny Martian. 
And I'm, well, I would like to ask you a question. Do, 
what is your favorite flavor of bowling ball?" And 
she's an African-American lady and she looked back 
for a second and said, "Chocolate.” 

Ross: Ali, good.  

Michael: I said, "Me, too.” 

Ross: Good.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: All right. Have a seat. Ten minute ...  

BREAK IN TAPE 

Ross: I want to go over some of the, the basic  tools 
like quotes, negation, embedded commands, trance 
words, and most importantly I want to go through 
context. Because a lot of you I know now have a basic 
understanding of how patterns work, but you're, 
you're still not sure exactly in what context which 
patterns to start with. I know a lot of you would like 
more of a road map. It's sort of right now you've 
looked at the showroom floor, you've seen what the 
car can do, now you want a map saying, "Ross, given 
that I want to drive here, tell me which patterns to use, 
" and I will do that, so that when you come out of 
here, you have like two or three different game plans 
that you can try. Fair enough? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: So, you're looking and it's second down, three 
yards, what play do I use? Now, once y ou get familiar 
with doing this, I want you to begin to write your own 
playbook and call your own play, but I will provide 
that for you. That's only fair, yes? 

Audience: yes.  

Ross: I know, even though you're going to lie to me 
and tell me it's not true, I know that there's still a lot of 
confusion and open loops in the room. I've done that 
deliberately because I've sort of overloaded you and 
now today's the day where we tie everything together 
in a nice package and you're going to feel that sense 
of completion getting stronger and stronger as the 
day moves forward. Okay? 

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Fair enough? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So, yes? 

Audience: I had a couple of questions about 
yesterday.  

Ross: Okay. I'll tell you what. Hold that and we're 
going to do this  and then we'll go back to your 
questions. So, one of my favorite tools as we 
discussed yesterday is quotes. Now quotes does a lot 
of things. You can use quotes to, as a conversational 
framework. ”I was watching the most interesting show 
on TV. They were interviewing a man on the 
Discovery Channel who makes his living designing 
rides, attractions. And he said boom.” Got it? You can 
use quotes to test someone's boundaries. You know, I 
can't believe, so you can use quotes as what I call a 
sexual accelerator. -You know? Towards the end of

the time you're spending with her you can test to see 
if she's ready. You can go, "You know, some guys are 
so crude. I was at this bar and a guy walks right up to 
this girl and he says, 'I want to tongue your beaver till 
you s cream for mercy. ' Did he really expect her to feel 
that and think about it all night long, Debbie.” Now, 
do you hear the commands in there? Feel that, think 
about it all night long? The thing to understand with 
commands is low play, low key them. I step on them 
here so you can hear it, but the more you put them in 
quotes, the stronger you can be with it. Okay? If you 
put something in quotes you can really step on it 
cause it's not you saying it. So, here's an example with 
the famous joke we call Voodoo Dildo. So, I'm going 
to tell this joke. All right? And when I do a command, 
I'm going to wave my hands like this so you can hear 
it. Okay? Right? 

Audience: Right 

Ross: So, this businessman is leaving town and he's 
kind of concerned because he knows his wife is a 
nymphomaniac.

Tape 8 – Side 1 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 15 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: The famous joke we call Voodoo Dildo. So I'm 
going to tell this joke, all right? And when I do a 
command I'm going to wave my hands like this so you 
can hear it. Okay? Right? 

Audience: Right 

Ross: So, this businessman is leaving town and he's 
kind of concerned because he knows his wife is a 
nymphomaniac. And he knows that as soon as he 
leaves town she's going to think to herself, "You 
gotta get some right now. Go for it.” So he goes to the 
sex toy shop to see if he can find anything to keep her 
occupied. He's looking around and amongst the 
blow-up dolls, sheep and, you know, the different 
little vibrators and balls, but he doesn't really see 
anything that catches his attention or interest. He 
notices behind the counter there's an ornately carved 
wooden box. And he says to the proprietor, "What's 
that?" And the guy says, "Oh, that's the Voodoo 
Dildo. Let me show you.” He opens it up and there on 
a bed of red satin is what appears to be an ordinary 
white plastic vibrator. The guy says, "Voodoo 
Dildo?" And the proprietor says, "No, watch this.” He 
says, "Voodoo Dildo, door.” And with that the 
Voodoo Dildo magically rises up out of the box, flies 
across the room and starts slamming into the keyhole, 
bang, bang, bang. Just as the door is about to splinter 
off its hinges and go flying out into the road, the guy 
says, "Voodoo Dildo, box.” And with that the 
Voodoo Dildo magically flies back and like a leaf 
coming gently to rest on the floor of the forest goes 
back into the satin box. Well needless to say, he's 
gotta have it. So, a thousand dollars later he wraps it 
up in a package with a red ribbon, brings it home to 
his wife, explains it to her, kisses her on the cheek and 
off he goes. Now, for three days she thinks about it. 
For three days she can feel the hominess building. 
She can feel that growing desire, that hunger for 
pleasure. Finally, she can't take it anymore, she rips 
open the box, says, "Voodoo Dildo, my koochee.” 
Now the Voodoo Dildo flies into her, its stroking her 
at exactly the right angle, with exactly the right 
pressure, exactly the way she loves it. And she starts 
to have orgasm after rippling orgasm. She starts to 
surrender to the amazing pleasure. Well this goes on 
for five hours. At the end of five hours, she's a 

nervous, jellified wreck. And she tries pulling it out 
but the harder she pulls, the deeper in it goes, the 
more she can feel that unbelievable pleasure. So she 
figures, "Oh my god. I'm going to have to call 911" 
And she picks up the phone, calls 911, they don't 
believe her. She thinks, "Oh my god. I'll have to drive 
to the emergency room.” She waddles to the garage 
and she continues to have orgasm after amazing 
orgasm. She's swerving all over the road. A copy 
pulls her over. He says, "Okay lady. Let's see your 
driver's license. How much have you been drinking 
tonight?" "Officer, I haven't been drinking. It's the 
Voodoo Dildo.” "Voodoo Dildo, my ass.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: So, and the interesting thing about dildos up 
the ass that he is, no.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: No, no, no, no, no. So, one structure you can 
use to embed things is jokes. Okay? Another one is 
poetry, seduction poetry. Now if you're a member of 
the SS list, we have seduction poetry we from time to 
time. I'll tell you how to subscribe to that in just a few 
minutes. It's free for paying customers at least.  

Audience: Laughter. What is the SS list? 

Ross: The SS list is a, that's a good question. The SS 
list is a subscriber e-mail list. If you're on the internet 
where students from all over the world, 15 different 
countries I think we have, can exchange stories, can 
exchange tips, information, what worked for them, 
what didn't work, that sort of thing. And we'll tell you 
how to subscribe to that later today. And again, it's, 
there's no charge, I mean, you know, it's free. There 
are some rules of etiquette that people have t o obey 
or they get kicked off. I have kicked people off the list 
before. Can I get some of that please? So jokes is a 
good structure. Poetry is also very good. Poetry is 
really, really good. Poetry may not be, you know, 
technically quotes, but poetry is a way of talking 
about a subject without you really being the one 
saying it. I have a poem that goes something like this. 
Chicks, who has ever used my fascination poem? Did 
chicks eat it up? 

Audience: Ooooh.  

Ross: Now, poetry is really good for phone speed 
seduction. If you call someone on the phone and go, 
"Hey, listen to this Debbie. I just heard this amazing 
poem. Someone sent me this on the internet.” Right? 
So the poem goes something like this.  

Have you ever been fascinated by someone who's

words just seem to captivate you? As you listen so 

close and you start to wonder, "What would it feel 
like to falling under a spell, ummm, so magic, being 
spun by the sound of a voice who's rich was 
spreading on down. Have you ever experienced 
instantaneous connectio n to the point where your 
thoughts moved in just one direction? People 
sometimes say, "Please, just a kiss.” Funny how you 
find yourself wishing the same wish. Your mind is 
amazing when you really let it go, as you find yourself 
picturing, ummm, you know. As those pictures get 
bigger and that warmth starts to glow, spreading and 
pulsing where you want it to go. Now what doorway 
are we using there? 

Audience: Body sensations 

Ross: Body sensations. As those pictures get bigger, 
visual doorway, and that warmth starts to glow, 
spreading and pulsing where you want it to go, body 
sensations, I will tell you all you desire me, I know, 
you desire me? You step out of what was, invited, 
slipped inside, what is that? Sexual metaphor. Feels 
like warm rain between your sighs. And it's not 
important that you find every inhibition has left far 
behind. Now listen to this. We're going to do a little 
boyfriend destroyer. And if in your mind another man 
is around, watch as his picture drops straight to the 
ground and gets smalle r and darker and fades into 
space as a picture of us pops right in its place. What 
did we just do? The boyfriend destroyer.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You, well that's what we did. We said, "And if 
your heart there's another man around, " okay? 
"Watch as his picture drops straight to the ground.” 
Now, I didn't say, "Will his picture drop straight to 
the ground, " I said, "Watch as his pictures drop, 
drop straight to the ground, " meaning it's going to 
happen. The only thing you can do is watch or not 
watch. Okay? "Watch as his picture drops straight to 
the ground and gets smaller and darker and fades into 
space, as a picture of us pops right in its place.” 

Audience: Where do we get a copy of this? 

Ross: It's in your notes. I think the fascination poem 
in our notes.  

Audience: Is it? I don't think so. Responses from 
audience 

Ross: Is it in the notes or is it in one of the 
workbooks? The fascination ...  

Audience: It's in the little manual.  

Ross: It's in the speed seduction book.  

Audience: It's one of the news letters.  

Ross: It's in one of the newsletters.  

Audience: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay? It's in one of the newsletters.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: It gets smaller and darker and fades into space, 
... What you've looked for so long you've finally 
found, what you've longed for and hoped for has 
finally come round. Okay? Now listen to me. You 
could call her up, this is all quotes. You're not quoting 
a person; you're just reading a poem. And now what 
is the topic of that poem? Fascination? Connections? 
You can say, and here's what you do. You say, "You 
know Debbie. As I thought about it after I read that 
poem, I thought, wow, isn't it interesting how people 
connect with each other? Isn't it interesting?" This is 
another great topic opener. Excuse me. Saying, "Isn't 
it interesting. Isn't it interesting how people connect 
with each other?" Now, what pattern would you go 
into there? Incredible connection, which is in your 
workbook. So, poetry is a great way, again, to quote 
something. A. very interesting thing is  that I and, and 
we have a classically trained hypnotist here, I think 
that jokes and poems and stories all work on the same 
mechanism even though they appear different, one 
from the other. They all work on the mechanism cause 
they call connect with the deeper part of the mind. 
They connect with the playful part of the mind, the 
imaginative part of the mind, the part that's open to 
suggestion, that's open to new possibility. ”And 
when you open to nude possibility Debbie ...” Now, 
that's called phonetic ambiguity. Phonetic ambiguity 
in and of itself will not get you anywhere. Okay? It's 
simply not enough to walk up to a woman and say, 
"My best thoughts are not from above me, they're 
from below me.” That's not going to get you a 
blowjob, okay? And to talk about moving in a nude 
direction; am I say new direction or nude erection? 
Now, there have been people who have seen me do 
this and I am blatant, I am clearly saying nude 
erection. And I am doing this. Who is, some people 
were with me in San Diego and I was doing this to a 
waitress and I had my hands out like this. And I said, 
"And you take this huge nude erection and you move 
it deep inside.” And she wasn't getting it. She didn't 
know that I was saying, they don't get it. But, in and 
of itself it's not enough. You have to do it as part of a 
chain of suggestions. Okay? But, so phonetic 
ambiguity is used within a chain of suggestions to tell 
the unconscious where they're going to go. All right?

So, some phonetic ambiguities are below me, like as in 
the direction of above or below, and blow me, new 
and nude. Someone else, what are some other good 
phonetic ambiguities? 

Audience: You're mine.  

Ross: Yeah, that's another one. Your mind m-i-n-d or 
you're, as in the contraction for you are, mine, m-i-n-e. 
That's a very, very frequently used one.  

Audience: Succumb  

Ross: Succumb.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Yes, when you succumb, that's yeah, succumb 
is a good one. So you're saying suck come or 
succumb. The Three Stooges used it, Curly said, "If at 
first you don't succeed, keep on sucking till you do 
suck seed.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's true. Yeah. Anyone else have a good one? 
There, there are lots of them. Happiness or hap-penis, 
you know.  

Audience: Hop-penis  

Ross: Hop-penis, yeah. Audience: Response from 
audience 

Ross: What? 

Audience: Hot and ought.  

Ross: Hot and ought? Ah, that's not a very useful 
one, but okay.  

Audience: Response from audience. By now 

Ross: By now, yeah, okay. So, anyway.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Yeah, hot to know. Oh, ah, ah, harden me a 
minute. I'll walk, get up and go to the bathroom and 
go, "Harden me a minute.” Twat's that? I cunt hear 
you. No.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, no, no. Don't use that. Don't use that. No, 
do not. Okay. Speaking of saying do not use that, let 
me show you another quick little tool, haha, quick 
little tool? Negation.  

Audience: You might want to drop the quick part. 
Laughter 

Ross: Yeah. You drop what you want; I'll drop what I 
want. It's a repeater.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Not a breech loader, a repeater. Okay, look. 
Negation. Negation is very simple. To negate 
something you just put can't, shouldn't, mustn't, don't 
... Now the purpose of negation is to, negation is 
useful in a lot of different ways. One of the things 
negation does is it takes any resis tance they might 
express, expresses it for them and gets it out of the 
way. So, for example, you can use this if she puts up 
some last-minute resistance to your physical moves. 
”Oh, this is going too fast. We shouldn't be doing 
this.” Now the rule is to just agree with her. Now the 
wrong thing to do is go, "Well, why do you think 
that?" Why, why, why is that not useful to say, 
"Why do you think that?" 

Audience: Reinforces ...  

Ross: It just reinforces the problem. She'll come up 
with the reasons why she's right. So instead you say 
something like, like this. Look up here. Ben, Brother 
Orion. You're, you just, you guys are like noise 
machines here. What is going on here? I know, but 
now he's doing it.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: If you keep it up, you're going to be dead meat.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Cause if you're going to act impotent ... 
Anyway. Never mind, ever again.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm just kidding.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: No, I'm just kidding. Yes.  

Audience: Could you restate the purpose of that tool?  

Ross: Yes I can. Negation is useful for the following 
things. It takes, it states someone's objection and 
resistance before and, and dissipates it. ”You 
probably couldn't ...” Let me put it another way. Let's 
say you're making out with a woman. And she says 
something like, "We shouldn't be doing this.” You 
agree with her. Say, "You're right. I shouldn't be 
putting my hand into your pants. There's no reason 
for you, you absolutely mustn't feel the pleasure as 
my finger goes here. I absolutely should not be taking 
off your blouse and licking your beautiful nipples.” 
Okay? You just tell her what you shouldn't be doing 
and how she should not be responding as you 
continue to do it. It, what it does is it dissipates 
resistance. Now there's a second and equally useful 

background image

 

166

way to use negation. There's a class of women out 
there that are called polarity responders. And a 
polarity responder will automatically come up with 
reasons why anything you suggest is incorrect. So, 
negation is very useful for offering challenges. 
Remember what I said. Do not supplicate, but instead 
offer challenges and structure opportunities? So, if 
you were to say to a woman something like this, 
"You're probably not the kind of person who can look 
past the surface and see something much deeper, 
something really worth getting to know.” You know? 
And then they're going to go, "Well, yes I am ... ... 
You know, it's probably, you're probably not open 
and adventurous enough to really want to explore this 
kind of subject matter further with someone you 
realize really understands it.” And they'll go, "Well, 
yes I am. That's not true.” You understand? Now the 
question is well, how do you know if someone's a 
polarity responder? Okay? That's simple. It's a matter 
of observation. If every time you say something they 
say no it isn't or that's not true. Here's what a polarity 
responder does. What a polarity responder does is 
they look for differences. They look what, for what 
doesn't fit. They take what you offer them and they 
match it against what they already know and they see 
what can't work or work, they disagree with. Now, that 
can be useful. Understand that any strategy is useful. 
That's particularly useful if you're in business. You 
want a polarity responder at some point in the loop. 
You don't want them when you're brainstorming 
cause they'll kill the idea session, they'll kill the 
creativity. But after you've come up with an idea, you 
want the polarity responder to go, "Wait a minute. 
You forgot about this where it could go wrong.” You 
want someone to point out the pitfalls. You've just 
got to keep them out of the loop where they're not 
useful. Okay? But the problem with polarity 
responders is they can't turn it off, they're stuck with 
it. They're stuck with that strategy. Now the problem, 
what happens is if someone comes along with 
something that's so outside of their box, their circuits 
fry because they have nothing to compare it against 
and they shut down - ehhhhh. Okay? So, this is a 
useful thing. So quotes, negation, what's another one 
I can show you? Those are, those are ones we use 
quite frequently when, when we speed seduce.  

Major Mark: I have something on negation.  

Ross: Yes.  

Major Mark: If you were to this value say in hypnosis 
for example, you'd find it a lively debate about 
negation. Some people say that the unconscious mind 
cannot process the negative. Others say that of 

course it can process the negative and, in fact, both 
of them are correct. If you have a strong sense of 
rapport with a woman and you offer her a negation in 
your speech, the sense of rapport allows you to 
communicate directly with her unconscious mind and 
the unconscious mind actually cannot discriminate 
between the negative, the positive, it can't 
discriminate between what is true and false, what is 
fiction, what is reality. So when you offer a negation it 
processes both sides. Okay? So your message 
actually gets through. If, however, you do not have a 
strong sense of rapport with a woman and you offer a 
negation statement, they process the negative and 
that's it. They agree with you. Okay? So, if you want 
to work with things like, "Well, you probably can't 
begin to feel that growing sense of arousal for 
mysterious reasons.” Okay? Do that while she's not in 
rapport and she will agree with you and she'll walk 
out. Okay? If you do it while she's in rapport she will 
follow right along because negation just drops out.  

Ross: That's correct. Now there's something here to, 
to realize overall. Overall everything we're showing 
you for the whole weekend is designed to 
communicate with that different part of the mind; the 
part of mind where you bypass the critical factor. 
Okay? With classical hypnosis what you're doing is 
you're putting someone in an altered state that 
bypasses the, the critical factor, the factor t hat says I 
can't do this, I can't do that, this is what's possible, 
this is what's not possible. And you take them into a 
place where there're a whole new realm of possibilities 
where anything can be tried on, where anything can 
be tried out. So, I see you, hang on a minute. Just 
wait. Okay? So, with the female what you're sort of 
doing is you're bypassing what I call the criticism 
factor. The criticism factor is that part of her mind that 
says I only go for this kind of guy, I only go for a guy 
who has this, I only have a, go for a guy who has 
that, ah, I don't do this on the first date, I only do this. 
Remember the story where the woman said, "I've 
never done this with a guy I haven't known for at 
least six weeks?" That's typical. Well the reason she's 
doing it with the, the Brother who used that is 
because he's bypassed that part of her mind. Now the 
problem with the dating game is, you still have to deal 
with that part of her mind. So you either have to 
qualify yourself or you have to pretend to have those 
things. When you use Speed Seduction you're 
completely bypassing that part of her mind. You 
understand? So all the tools we're showing you, 
whether they're trance words, weasel phrases, 
negation, embedded commands, quotes, the patterns 
themselves, the conversational frameworks, they're all 

background image

designed to bypass those structures. And a lot of 
what we've been doing this weekend has been 
designed to bypass your structure in your mind that 
before you walked in that door prevented you from 
opening to new possibilities. Do you understand? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: So, we're in a sense speed seducing you into a 
new realm of possibilities. We're doing to you in a 
sense what you're going to be doing with women. 
Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: And by the way, if you think I've been rambling 
the whole weekend and jumping from topic to topic, I 
have; but I'm doing it by design. Because today is the 
day where everything gets tied up into a neat little 
package and you're able to go out there and actually 
use it. You understand? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: And the other thing is, I want to bring up one 
point, and Kim pointed something out to me. Thank 
you, honey. Your observations are almost always 
right on the money. She said there are a couple of 
people in here who have a, the mindset of this is their 
last ditch effort, this is it. And I'm here to tell those 
people you may be correct, but nonetheless this is 
not a magic bullet. Speed seduction is not a wonder 
weapon in, in the sense that you're suddenly going to 
be able to push a button and use it right away. This is 
going to take time, practice and dedication. You will 
get results. I will put you in touch with a community 
of people who will support you in your ongoing 
efforts. Okay? And understand that it's going to take 
some time to get results. If you go out tomorrow and 
walk up to the best looking woman in the world and 
expect that you're going to take her home and ten 
minutes later, your expectations are going to defeat 
you. You must have the willingness to work with 
these tools. This is not magic, it's mechanics. The 
distinction is that magic you utter the words and you 
get what you want. Mechanics means you have to do 
the work. But there's a predictable structure to get the 
results, but you must do the work. I saw your 
question back there. Now you may ask it.  

Audience: All right. With the ...  

Ross: By the way, what's your name? 

Audience: John Ross: Let me ask you a question. Are 
you getting this? 

John: For the most part, yes.  

Ross: Okay. So let's talk about the part that you're not 
getting, cause that's what I want to help you with. If 
fact, come up here, come to the front.  

John: My biggest problem is the negation button.  

Ross: No, sit down. Now tell me what you were going 
to say. What did you just say? 

John: I don't know. The negation topic 

Ross: All right. Actually, as a matter of fact, that's not 
so.  

John: It's like ...  

Ross: Well, first of all I want you to ...  

John: _____ .  

Ross: I'm like the teacher. Spit out, spit out your gum. 
Spit out your gum.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There you go. All right. Now, what were you 
saying? 

John: Well, I, you know, I'm forward and all. I can ...  

Ross: Hang on just a second. I'm not ready.  

John: My question is ...  

Ross: Well, I'm not ready. Wait.  

John: Shouldn't, you really shouldn't ...  

Ross: Good.  

John: If someone says like a, you know, "No, I haven't 
felt that instantaneous connection" you'd use, 
"You're right, you really shouldn't feel that 
instantaneous connection" and then go into the, if 
they haven't felt and all ...  

Ross: Yes, but you're starting from the wrong place. 
And here's the wrong place you're starting from. 
You're, let me say, the way you described your 
problem is not what's really going on. I think you're 
perfectly capable of communicating, you're perfectly 
capable of describing what's going on, where you, up 
until this moment have had a lack is what you 
yourself can experience. See, it's not that you can't 
communicate the patterns, it's that the patterns may 
not resonate with something that you yourself have 
experienced in here. So rather than giving you better 
tools to talk, which I will give you and which you 
have been getting, perhaps what you need to focus 
on is learning to experience ... I have an intuition 
about you. By the way, that's a very good pick-up 
line, is to say, you know, "Excuse me. I know this is 
going to sound strange, but I have an intuition about 

background image

 

168

you.” Why is that a good line? When you say to a 
woman, "I have an intuition about You, " what state 
do you put her into? 

Audience: Intrigue 

Ross: Intrigue and curiosity. So the moment before, 
she was neutral. Now you've moved her into curiosity 
and intrigue. I have an intuition about you. And we're 
all safe here and no one's going to tell on anyone. My 
intuition is that you have in your past experienced 
some altered states of consciousness.  

John: Definitely.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And, and, and, and by that I don't mean yoga or 
meditation or ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, I'm just saying, my, my sense is that you, 
that you're primary vehicle for having experience, 
different kinds of experience in life, has been 
chemically induced? 

John: Yep.  

Ross: Okay.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No problem. We all go through that phase. 
Some of us are stuck in that phase of development. 
Some of us get out rather quickly because they don't 
like it. That's no problem. You haven't lived till you've 
seen me on magic mushrooms. Those many, many ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: What is that slime trail, oooo.  

Audience: I will buy that video.  

Ross: You know, if you ever ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Yeah, I bet.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And you'd give it to the news. All right. By the 
way, are you having a lot of fun? You look different. 
You look like you're much more relaxed and enjoying 
yourself. I'm glad. Good, good. You deserve that. 
Good. Here's the thing. Well that can be very useful. 
When we do our weeklong seminar, as we do 
something called drug of choice, John Lavow, who's 
Richard Bandler's training partner ... Has anyone ever 
trained with John? Yeah. Is he awesome or what? 

Audience: Yeah 

Ross: John is incredible and he just keeps getting 
better and better.  

Audience: Like Doritos.  

Ross: Yeah, like Doritos. Anyway, John does this 
thing called drug of choice where if you've ever had 
any drug experience, you can recreate it. Now 
wouldn't it be great if you could smoke imaginary 
marijuana or have imaginary LSD, imaginary ecstasy. I 
mean, you wouldn't have to go out and score with a 
dealer, right? You know? What are the cops going to 
do? They pull you over, go, " All right. Get out of the 
car. You're under arrest for using your brain.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Blow into this machine. Zero. It doesn't make 
any sense. Well, look. I'm here to tell you that you've 
been mistaken in what you believe about those 
chemical experiences and here's what I mean. It's not 
the chemical that gives you the experience. And 
you're thinking, "Wait a minute. It sure is because I 
bought a lot of them.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, no. It's not the chemical that gives you the 
experience, it's your brain and body's reaction to the 
chemical. Now let me give you an example of this. I'm 
going to teach you a little something. I'm not a 
particularly great artist, but the way it works is there 
are receptor sites in the brain. Okay? So, if the 
receptor site looks like this, imagine a jigsaw puzzle. 
Okay? There are receptor molecules in the brain. And 
that means the only drug that can fit in has to 
chemically sort of look like this. Okay? So, what 
happens is it's like when your brain has that response 
its because the, the -drug fits in with the receptor 

that's naturally there. Do you understand? Do you 
understand? 

John: Yes 

Ross: And then the brain has a response. Well, what 
does that imply? It implies that somewhere in your 
brain or body there's a n atural version of that drug 
anyway. Otherwise the receptor site would never be 
there and the drug would have no effect. Do you 
understand that? 

John: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. So if that's the case, that means your 
brain already has all that stuff running around in the 
first place. The reason why people take drugs is they 
want the state and they don't know how to get to the 
natural response in their brain. That means that you 

background image

 

169

actually have the ability to generate any set of 
responses in there that you want to. Thin k about that. 
That means that you can generate a million different 
experiences for people to share with you. Right? 

John: Right.  

Ross: Exactly right. And with that realization what 
would it be like if you closed your eyes for a second 
and allowed that realization that you can generate 
millions of experiences to share with people? That in 
there you can learn to feel anything you want to, you 
can build new feelings. Cause the interesting thing 
about great nude feelings is to find a person to share 
them with. Because if you were to go back, all the way 
back, to the first time you began to ever use your 
brain and you took this ability with you to generate 
new thoughts, new feelings, new experiences, to 
begin to pay attention. If you were to remember the 
best ~ if you were to remember the best time that ever 
happened and remember what that felt like, you could 
begin to understand that you can track feelings in 
your body. You can pay attention to where a feeling 
starts, what direction it goes, and from doing that, if 
you were to go back and read the incredible 
connection pattern and as you read it, imagine that 
you could feel what that would feel like from right in 
there. Then you could use that feeling to guide your 
words. There's a story called HANSEL AND GRETEL 
where Hansel and Gretel didn't want to get lost in 
forest, so they left a trail of bread crumbs that they 
could follow back. What if these feelings in here were 
that trail that you could use to lead people to share an 
experience with you? And the method you used were 
the words and the tools that we gave you? That 
would be interesting wouldn't it? So, what I want you 
to begin to realize is what you thought was a liability 
and what can be a liability, given the social norms, we 
have to watch those things, actually it's Just an ability 
you haven't been using properly. Because your brain 
has the ability to generate a zillion different states to 
have all sorts of different feeling and experiences. You 
can experience a lot of things; it's just up until now 
you only had one way to do it. But what I want you to 
know is, it's always been your brain doing it all along 
anyway. Okay? Now, what else are you having a 
difficulty with? 

John: Just the communicating.  

Ross: Okay. Well, communication is not a thing. This 
is a thing. Okay. You hold it in your hand, you know? 

John: Right 

Ross: And you can't hold it in your hand while you 
talk. Communication is a process. All right? And you 

can learn to do it more effectively. So, of the tools that 
we've reviewed so far ...  

John: This and tools that, there, they, you know, 
expanded my vocabulary.  

Ross: Right.  

John: It's good. It's definitely good.  

Ross: Well, let me, let me explain something to you 
then. This, yes it is good and let me tell something. 
Let's use an analogy. Let's say you've never been able 
to walk in your entire life. You've always lived in a 
wheelchair. All of a sudden one day some mad man 
comes along or something happens, you get up out of 
the chair. All of a sudden you have a whole new set 
of things to deal with. You have to learn how to, you 
know, tie your shoes, you may have to learn how to 
walk uphill, all of a sudden you could get lost 
wondering around a neighborhood you've never been 
before, but you're still better off than you were before. 
So this, this, the distinction between a new direction 
that you're efforting towards and having a problem, I 
think what you're doing is, actually you're, you're 
experiencing some growth and that's a good thing. 
Okay? That's all I want to tell you, I mean, is there any 
part of that has to do with clarity where you're not 
understanding what's being presented? That's what I 
want to know about.  

Cause as you learn to do something, I mean, when, 
anyone here play a musical instrument? When you 
first learned to play, did you feel like a little klutzy, like 
you didn't know what you were doing? 

Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: Okay, but now, you, you can do it with, with 
ease. Do you drive? 

John: Yes.  

Ross: Could they, they didn't take your license away? 
No? 

John: No they didn't.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: All right. Hold on sheriff. This man's insured 
with Eastwood. Do do do do. I don't know if they 
have those ads out here. Anyway. Well when I first 
learned to drive I had to think of everything, I mean, I 
had to think, "Oh my god. What do I _____ ?" Now 
I'm just, you know. You don't have to think about it. 
These tools will be become natural the more you 
practice. All right? All right, have a seat. I'm done with 
you.

Audience: Applause  

Ross: Oh, oh. See. Now I wasn't paying attention. 
Look what I did. that's all right.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Sorry about that.  

Audience: Laughter 

?: It's that sensory acuity.  

Ross: Ah, shut up.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: All right. Now let me go through some more of, 
few more basic pieces of the course. Okay? This is 
important. By the way, I meant what I said to him. 
And those of you who ...  

BREAK IN TAPE 

Audience: What are you going to teach ...  

Ross: We'll do that later. We'll do that later. We're on. 
All right. I just want to go through some trance 
words. Trance words are words that tend to evoke an 
altered state of consciousness. Now, it's not quite like 
open sesame and the doors of the cave open, but 
they do tend to as part of a train of suggestions 
evoke an altered state. We'll just go through a few of 
them. My favorite one is imagine. What is imagine 
do? Imagine evokes that part of the mind that does 
work on a rational basis. And I will frequently say as 
I'm offering a chain of suggestions, I will frequently 
use this phrase; it's one o f my most used phrases. 
Reach for the sky but no.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: My, one of my most frequently used phrases is, 
...  

Mark: This is so ...  

Ross: Is ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Is I don't know if you can imagine this as I 
describe it. So I don't know if you can imagine this as 
I describe it. What is the command? 

Audience: Imagine, imagine as I describe it.  

Ross: The command is imagine this as I describe it. 
Now, do you have to say that in order for her to 
imagine it? No, but why take, I, I really want to make 
sure she does. So I'll say, "I don't know if you can 
imagine this as I describe it.” The great thing about 
this word is it tends to turn on and energize that, that 

part of her mind that, that deals fantasies and that, 
that sort of thing. Mysteriously. That's another 
favorite trance word. What does it mean when 
something happens mysteriously? What part of the 
mind is being evoked or engaged when something 
happens mysteriously? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: What's that? 

Audience: Wonder, curiosity.  

Ross: It's, it's that, yeah, the imagination. ”So notice 
what it's like as your mind mysteriously begins to 
think in a new direction.” Good morning 

Brother Kathleen. What? You can come sit up here if 
you want to. No? Another one I like. Instantaneously. 
What does it mean when something happens 
instantaneously? "Notice what it's like as your mind 
instantaneously puts a picture of you and I being 
together in a very special way, right there in that 
place.” What does it mean when something happens 
instantaneously? When something happens 
instantaneously, do you have conscious control over 
it? 

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: No, it's just happening. Okay? Another trance 
word is suppose. ”Suppose you were to master these 
skills of speed seduction so naturally and easily that 
you look back on this weekend as having been the 
best decision you ever made, wasn't it?" What is 
supposed do? Suppose is really a command to get out 
of your rational mind and get into the part of your 
mind that considers new possibilities, new directions. 
Picture. Well picture is just like imagine. ”I don't know 
if you can picture the two of us together - fucking, 
having an amazing time.” Boy, I better not go into 
that.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There's a book you should g et called 
PROVOCATIVE THERAPY by Frank Farrelly. I" 
repeat the title three times. PROVOCATIVE 
THERAPY by Frank Farrelly. ”Can you spell 
Farrelly?" Yes I can. I believe it's spelled 
F-A-R-RE-L-L-Y. PROVOCATIVE THERAPY, last time 
I'll say it, by Frank Farrelly. F-A-R-R-E-L-L-Y. Where 
Farrelly found if he provoked and shocked his clients, 
he got a lot better change than if he was like real 
sweet and nice to them.  

Brother Orion: Bandler 

Ross: Yeah. Bandler, Bandler especially I think

modeled it.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Sometimes you can use shock on a woman if 
she's resistant. I have done this before. I don't 
recommend it for beginners. Please don't do this until 
you've really gotten your feet wet. But I've looked at a 
woman who was giving me trouble and said, "It's time 
you and I started fucking (pause) around with the 
idea ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "of your realizing that it's not about you making 
me wrong or me making you wrong. But it's about two 
people sharing something, that we each really want to 
feel this. Don't you?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: nose of you at home when I said "feel this" I 
grabbed my crotch area. Shock can be a way to get 
through to people. There's some of us who are stuck 
with that method and need to learn some flexibility. By 
the s ay, she, this tends to be the meth, method of 
confrontational training. It was like _____ or the 
forum. They want to shock you. You know? It's the 
only way they know how to teach you, "You're a 
fucking asshole. What are you here ...” You know? 
Now, I can be confrontational sometimes, and 
sometimes it's useful. But if it's the only thing you 
know how to do, you're stuck. Realize. The, the, these 
are sort of the, the presuppositions of awareness, but 
they also are trance words. Realize. What does it 
mean to realize something? I suddenly, to suddenly 
realize something. Does that mean it's something that 
you worked out consciously?  

Audience: No.  

Ross: No. Yessir.  

Mark: The nice thing about realize also ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Mark: that it's a phonetic ambiguity. One thing that I 
do is I point to my eyes and go "real eyes.” 

Ross: Oh, by the way, I heard a good one, man. They 
do, they have in Los Angeles, they have radio ads for 
the laser eye surgery. Okay? And they, and, and, and 
they said "the so-and-so clinic, remember, come to the 
so-and-so clinic for people who special-eyes ...  

?: Uh, got it.  

Ross: And they did it very subtly. But they talked 
about having special eyes. I'm going, "Whoa. That's a 
real good one.” We did mysterious. Oh, here's one. 

Convince yourself What does it mean to convince 
yourself? What does it mean to convince yourself?  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Go inside and change your own mind. Find 
yourself This is a really good one. I use this all the 
time. What does it mean to find yourself? "It's not 
important, " there's negation, "that you find yourself 
thinking about me in a completely new direction. If I 
were to you it's not important that you find yourself 
thinking about me in a completely new direction. If I 
were to say to you ...” What is "If I were to say to 
you?" 

Audience: Weasel phrase.  

Ross: Weasel phrase. What what is the purpose of, of 
a weasel phrase? It sets up all the commands you're 
gonna, you're gonna give. Are you getting this 
Amos? 

Amos: Yes.  

Ross: Okay. We're going to bring you up later and 
pick on you.  

Amos: _____ .  

Ross: Huh? 

Amos: I said no problem.  

Ross: Okay, good.  

?: Weasel phrases are also softeners.  

Ross: Yes. Softeners are anything you introduce or 
use that makes the language you use acceptable. A 
softener would be like, "You know, I know this may 
sound a little strange" or "I hope you don't mind our 
discussing this. It's very important that when I 
understand someone that I find out what's really 
important to them.” Okay? In a sense, with these 
things what you're doing is you're stepping back from 
it and making it more acceptable than going straight 
up and saying, "Find me fascinating. Convince 
yourself right now.” You know? Now, I know there's 
some people out there in the NLP community who 
teach that kind of thing, but let me suggest, that 
works in the seminar room but not in the real world. If 
you go up to someone in the real world and go, "The 
more you listen to what I say, the more it will cause 
you to find everything I say utterly and completely 
true.” If you do that in the real world, what's going to 
happen? 

Audience: Responses from audience.  

Ross: Now, if you do that in the seminar room and, 
with a bunch of cooperative zombies, they're going to 

background image

 

172

jump up and down and go, "Yea.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? But, but, you know, that, it doesn't work 
in the real world. So, watch, yeah, that's right. So, if 
someone's teach you, you know, some language 
pattern mastery, you got to ask yourself, "Wait a 
minute. So that really going to work outside the 
seminar room?" And I hope you're applying that to 
what I'm teaching you, too. I invite that kind of 
mindset. I invite skepticism; as long as it's presented 
non-rudely, you know, within some rules of decorum. 
So you want to be able to ask yourself, "Hey, you 
know, is thing going to work outside the seminar 
room, Ross?" Yes. Greg.  

Greg: Can you do softener again. ”I hope you don't 
mind us talking about ...”  

Ross: "You know, I hope you don't mind us 
discussing this but it's really important when I meet 
someone and, and I understand them, to find out 
what's important to them.” Or you can say something 
like, "You know, I hope you find this line of 
questioning acceptable and respectable because I do 
want to respect you as I learn about your cause it's 
important when I meet someone who I like to learn 
what's important to them. And I will equally share 
with you what's important to me.” So, in a sense, 
when you do this process of persuasion, one of the 
things that you want to do, seduction, persuasion of 
any kind, what you want to do is to pace their 
ongoing reality and not jar it. Now, there's sometimes 
when jaming their ongoing reality, as in shocking 
them, is useful. Okay? There are times when you 
_____ , when you want to interrupt the reality. When 
you do a pick-up and she's walking along and doesn't 
even know you exist, what's your state of mind 
towards you? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Neutral. Okay? She doesn't even know you're 
there. What you want to rapidly do is move her out of 
that state. But, still, you don't want to jar her. If you 
do jar her, you want to jar her with humor. That's why 
when I walk up to that woman and I act gay, "Excuse 
me, princess ...” I could jar her by walking up with an 
axe. Right? And going ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Ted Bundy rules.” Okay? 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Would, it would, I'm serious. Would that break 
her state? 

Audience: Oh yeah.  

Ross: I mean, remember the formula: break her state, 
focus her attention on you, take control of her internal 
representations. Okay, that's the pick-up formula. But 
look, look. I could do that by walking up and, and, 
and with my dick out going, "(panting) Hi there. Doc 
say I need to get my inhibitions out.” 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: All right? I had a guy write me ... Listen. I had a 
guy write me. He says, "Ross, you know, I've read 
your books and stuff.” And he says, "I feel like a 
coward cause I was on the subway and I really 
wanted to show my dick to this girl, but I just couldn't 
get my confidence up. Should I have shown her my 
dick?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I swear. We get freak mail, man. We get some 
very sick mail. We, I have a, I have, I'm very cog, 
cognizant of my security. I have a, a little file where 
I'm kind of like keeping track of the potential hazards.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: To give them to, to Brother Pelone. Hang on 
just one second. So, so, he says, I wrote him back and 
I said, "You're a very ill young man. You need serious 
therapy. Under no circumstances are you to show 
your dick to any woman unless it's behind closed 
doors and she asks to see it. Or she is a licensed 
medical professional.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? "And we're taking you off our mailing 
list. I want no further responsibility ...” We kick 
people off our mailing list. I mean, if we feel that, that, 
you know, we ... Yes, question.  

Audience: Yeah. I just wanted to break her states ...  

Ross: Focus her attention on you. Well obviously 
you don't want her attention focused on someone 
else. Focus it on you, and begin to take control of her 
internal representations. By internal representations I 
mean how she pictures things, what she says to 
herself and what feelings she's going to have in her 
body. That's very simple stuff. Good question. 'thank 
you. All right? Ah, let's see. What other trance words 
are good? Wonder. I like the word wonder. Brother 
Coby has this thing where he says to a woman, "So 
let me ask you something. What would a guy have to 
do to convince your wondrous self to have a cup of 
coffee with him?" Okay? Wonder, wondrous. What 
does it mean to wonder? When you wonder, are you

173

using your rational thought process? Remember, 
picture it like this. Remember the other day we had the 
Brother ... There he is. Look at me a minute. Was it 
this hand? Okay? You want to consider people like 
this. Consider this about moving energy around.

Tape 8 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 16 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: You want to consider people like this, Consider 
this about moving energy around. I know those of 
you with a scientific mindset will go what point of the 
electromagnetic spectrum is that energy on? I don't 
know. Okay? You want to move energy from one part 
of her mind to another. So this is point, the critical 
part of her mind, the part that's analytical and has all 
the critical stuff in it. Like, "Well, he's got to have a 
certain look, he's too old.” You want to take energy 
from that and move more and more of that energy into 
this part, the part that imagines, daydreams, 
fantasizes, where anything can be tried out, where 
anything can be tried on. Is there a possible pattern 
here to be spun? Maybe. Some are listening and some 
are really listening, and some are really not listening at 
all. Okay? You want to, everything we're showing you 
is a way of moving energy from one part of her mind 
to another part. Now here's the really cool thing. This 
part of her mind may not be very active. She may not 
really know how to use it. you may be the very first 
person to come along and really show her some 
amazing tools to do that with. You're waking her up. 
You're sort of like, anyone know the story of Helen 
Keller and Anne Sullivan, THE MIRACLE WORKER? 
Anne Sullivan taught Helen Keller, who is deaf, dumb 
and blind, how to perceive the world. She gradually 
put energy into that part of Helen's mind that could 
perceive. That's sort of what you're doing, but some 
of the women, you know, you're like THE MIRACLE 
WORKER, waking this part up. ”Hallelujah. I can 
see.” A nude possibility, moving in a powerful new 
direction. Okay? I'm serious about this. It's an amazing 
tool.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Right? That's right.  

?: Wow.  

Ross: Okay? So, those are trance words, those are 
just some, some of the smaller pieces. How're we 
doing? Anyone need a break? We doing okay? We'll 
go for another like 15 minutes before we take a break. 
What I want to do now is, Mr. Paul? 

Mark: _____ started riots.  

Ross: What's that? 

Mark: Chopin started riots.  

Ross: Did he really start riots? Are you kidding? Why 
did he start riots? 

Mark: Because he created some powerful emotional 
music and he did it in a time of political upheaval. So 
when he _____ , for example, it started riots and they 
banned it. they, they ran him out of the country.  

Ross: Wow.  

Mark: Okay. Mozart had women throwing underwear 
at him. I mean, that ...  

Ross: He's, he was ...  

Mark: _____ .  

Ross: The underwear in those days is pretty big.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You'd have some muscular guy picking that shit 
up. I just want to say ...  

BREAK IN TAPE 

Ross: This is such a simple understanding doesn't 
mean . Okay? If you pay attention to where something 
is, it gives you the choice to move it somewhere else. 
If you're not paying attention to where it is, you can't 
move it, you can't do anything with it except _____ . 
All right? Being able to pay attention to where 
something is gives you the flexibility and the ability to 
move it somewhere else. If you're not paying attention 
to where it is in the first place, the only thing you can 
do potentially is clash with it. so that's why doing that 
exercise is important; so you can learn to pay 
attention. See some of the useful questions to ask 
yourself when you're doing patterning is to ask 
yourself where is she now? To ask where to I want 
her to go? In other words, the average frustrated 
chump asks questions about where he physically 
wants to take a woman. ”Should I take her to the 
movies, should I take her to, should I take her to an 
expensive restaurant, should I get my car washed?" 
You want to ask questions where's her mind and 
where do I want to take it? What are the series of 
states I want her to experience with me? You look 
confused are you confused? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: And what specifically is confusing you.  

Audience: its such a broad question - where is she 

Ross: Mentally, where is she? Is she neutral towards 
me? Is she excited about me? Okay? Here's the thing, 
you go, I want you guys to understand. Picture this. 

background image

Let's use this metaphor. Let's talk metaphor for a 
minute. And I know what he met her for. Look up 
here. I don't want any writing down. Okay. Look. 
Let's, let's speak metaphorically. Let's say that she's a 
car, okay? And you want her to drive the car into 
your garage. That's sort of an opposite metaphor, but 
let's say that's what it is, okay? Okay. Here's the car. 
Let's say she's already highly attracted to you, she's 
highly attracted to you, she's ready for a man in her 
life, she's been alone for a long time and she really 
wants to be with a man tonight. Okay? How mu ch 
patterning do you have to do? 

Audience: Very little.  

Ross: Very little. Okay? Now let's say you're not her 
type. Okay? She's just not physically attracted to the 
way you look. And let's say she's kind of just a little 
bit gun-shy. You're going to have to some more work. 
Okay? So, it's important to be able to assess where 
the person's at. Now. So, if she starts out, ideally 
she's going to be highly attracted to you right off the 
bat, but that rarely happens. So let's say she's neutral. 
Her state of mind towards you is neutral. She doesn't 
hate you, she doesn't love you. If you're lying on 
ground on fire and she had a bucket of water, she'd 
pour it on you. You know? She may not check on 
your condition, but you go, "Yeah.” Instead of 
whacking you with the bucket or going and getting 
some lighter fluid ... Okay, so she's neutral. What's a 
good state, realistically, what's a good state to move 
her from, from being neutral, do you want to move, do 
you think it, you can move her to absolute slobbering 
lust feeling like you are the last piece of hot dog in the 
world? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Yeah. Curiosity, intrigue, comfort ...  

Audience: Loveliness 

Ross: Now what happens if that's as far as it goes? If 
the only state she ever experiences with you are 
curiosity and casual comfort, where do you think this 
is going to go? 

Audience: Wrong, wrong, wrong. friends.  

Ross: Let's be friends. Okay? Now the problem with 
the old dating game that you used to do before you 
walked in the door on Friday is the things that you 
would have to do to get her out of this were all 
guesswork. You're frantically trying to push the 
button in the 747 that's crashing. You're in the control 

panel going, "What does this button do?" 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Do I put on my parachute or do I try and get 
the plane to fly?" You know? "The control inputs are 
not working. What is this pedal for? What does 'Do 
Not Push' mean?" You know? That's what you're 
trying to do cause you have no idea. Do I, so, but 
when you learn to use language, when you, first of all, 
learn to pay attention to see where a person's at and 
then you begin to think what states do I want them to 
go through and you begin to move their states in a 
deliberate way, then you begin to have a lot more 
power and choice. So, if we want to create curiosity, 
casual comfort, that's good. We can do that with our 
opening line. You know, a good way to do that is say, 
"Excuse me. Forgive the interruption. I just want to 
tell you I think you're absolutely breathtaking. My 
name is so-and-so.” You know? And then to create 
curiosity and intrigue, a great line is to say is, "I have 
an intuition about you.” Now, when you say, "I have 
an intuition about you, " what does that do? Curiosity 
and intrigue. She may have a little skepticism like 
"Okay, tell me, buddy. Show me what it is.” Okay. 
Now you can joke around. You can go, "My intuition 
is that if I invited you to sit down and analyze your 
handwriting and tell you secrets about yourself your 
best friends don't know, you'd be smart enough and 
open enough to accept that invitation right now.” 
Okay? You get the kind of languaging? I'm not going 
to repeat it word for word because the word for word 
is not the point. The point is the attitude you want to 
convey. The attitude is really are you smart enough to 
do this. You're not really saying, "I think you're, I 
believe you're smart enough.” You're really saying, 
"Are you smart enough? Let's see if you can take this 
opportunity.” Remember what I said. Never ask, never 
supplicate. You didn't say, "Would you sit down with 
me and let me do your handwriting?" Or, "Do you 
want me to do your handwriting?" You said, "You 
know, I have an intuition about you. My intuition is 
you're smart enough and adventurous enough that if I 
offered to sit down and analyze your handwriting and 
tell you secrets about yourself your best friends don't 
know you'd jump at the opportunity right now.” 
You're challenging. Guys, you have no idea of the 
power of this. If you use these patterns combined 
with challenging and structuring opportunities. Okay. 
Here's the wrong way to do it. ”Will you please sit 
down and let me do your handwriting?" Or "Would 
you like me to do your handwriting?" Never ask, 
never supplicate. Instead, structure o pportunities and 
offer challenges. It doesn't matter what specific 
language is. As long as your attitude is, "Hey, are 

background image

 

176

you sharp enough to take this opportunity?" You 
don't say it right out. You don't walk and go, "Are 
you sharp enough and smart enough to take 
advantage of this great opportunity in front of you?" 
Okay? That's when you get the little, the little bird 
waved in your face. Every time you structure you 
structure your communication, if you can get into the 
habit of asking, "How can I structure this so it 
captures and leads the imagination and it either/or or 
both, structures an opportunity or offers a 
challenge?" If you don't structure an opportunity 
what you're doing is begging. What you're doing is 
saying, "I'm always available.” But if you're like 
Mark's moving feast, here you are this movable feast, 
is she fast enough to grab something really good off 
the banquet table? Then, then my friend, you have 
tremendous power. There are a lot of different ways to 
structure a challenge; through the way y ou use your 
language. I did this thing where I, where I called this 
woman. Let me tell you a true story. Cause this is a 
part I want to get into. In my original book I talked 
about don't leave messages on answering machines. 
But technology has changed since 1989. Nowadays a 
lot women rely on voice mail and pagers. Yes? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: So, I had met this woman at a, originally, maybe 
four months ago and I left a sincere message on her 
voice mail. She never called me back. Ran into her 
again about maybe six weeks ago, got her number 
again, and through talking to her what I elicited from 
her is she's very snobbish. She likes to believe she's 
smarter than any other woman out there. She doesn't 
like women. In her mind, these are her own words, 
"Women are shallow and only look at the surface of 
things.” She likes to think she 

has more depth than that. So when I called her I left a 
message along these lines. Now the words are not 
important. What's important is the attitude that I 
conveyed. I said, "This is so-and-so, blah, blah, blah, 
you know. I don't know, I don't know for sure if you're 
the kind of woman who can look past the surface and 
see something deeper, something worth really getting 
to know, but my bet is you are. My wager is you are 
the kind of person who can stop and imagine being 
together really enjoying each other's company. So if, 
and only if, I'm right about you, you can reach for the 
phone and call me at ... And I hope this, you know, 
and this is all I can do right now cause this is the only 
number I have to reach you. And I hope this message 
has reached you.” Okay? You get it? She called me 
back like boom. Okay? Now, I challenged her. I said, 
"Are you, " I didn't say, "Hey, are you the woman 

who's good enough to do this?" But that's what I did 
say. And I said, "I wager that you are. My bet is that 
you are.” Now what does that imply? It implies, "I'm 
wagering, I'm, I'm putting my money on you. Now you 
want to be a bitch and a shallow person who 
disappoints me, that says something bad about you.” 
You see what I'm saying? Now when I tried being 
sincere with her the first go around, saying, "Hey, I 
really enjoyed talking to you. I'd like to spend some 
time with you without time pressures or 
interruptions.” Never heard back from her. If you can 
learn to structure your communication in a way that 
offers a challenge or structures an opportunity, I 
could do a whole day on this, you will go bananas. 
Another way to offer a challenge or structure an 
opportunity is to say, "Look, I don't have a lot of 
time.” Oh, the other thing I said to her is, I said, "So 
even though you realize I'm hard (pause) to get a hold 
of and I'm ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "I'm probably too busy to spend too much time 
with you, you can still feel enthusiastic about 
reaching for the phone.” Okay? I'm telling you. This is 
like, this is where your seduction skill will obtain 
critical mass like these A-bombs you saw going off. 
There's a reason why I kept showing you that. If you 
can combine the language patterns with the attitude 
of nerve supplicate, just structure opportunities and 
offer challenges, boom. Now I'm going to offer a 
challenge to you guys. Rather than give you specific 
languaging on how to do this, I want you guys to 
form your own support group. And the subject matter 
of this support group for the next three months is 
going to be "What language do you use in every 
phase of seduction to structure opportunities and 
offer challenges?" We're going to pass around a 
sheet, exchange e-mails, that sort of thing, e-mail 
addresses. I want you guys to form your own 
workshop, your own braintrust and really work on 
this. Rather than spoonfeed you, I want you guys to 
come to understand that you are the source of your 
own change. I'm like the irritant, I'm the little grain of 
sand that gets  into the clam and forms the pearl. 
Okay? I like to view myself, my mom always used to 
say, "You're a gadfly.” "So what's a gadfly?" She 
said, "It's a fly that buzzes around and irritates people 
and bzzzz.” "Thanks mom. I never thought of it that 
way, but good.” You can see my mom saying that, 
couldn't you Kim? I'm sorry. Yes? Brother Orion.  

Brother Orion: I was just going to say, I've been to a 
few of the seminars and, and started, you know, 
meeting some of the people through you and getting

177

everybody's n ames down. And I've met some of the 
coolest people, you know, through following through 
on this. But what you can't expect, you can't expect to 
get that call that says, "Hey, we're all getting 
together" and here it just happens to be a day that 
you're, you're going to be free anyway and just go 
and do it. You got to take a little bit of effort, you 
know, if you, or if you have a success, you want to 
just talk to somebody about it, just put your name on 
it at random, well it seriously, I mean, if you remember 
the person that well. Some of the people I didn't 
remember that well at the seminar, but we go together 
and we had a great time and I'm still friends with them 
from a year ago.  

Ross: Yes, Brother Kathleen.  

Brother Kathleen: Well, I have question about what, 
what you said when you're offering that challenge on 
...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Kathleen: the phone because if somebody did 
that to me, I would, and I, I, let's say didn't call them 
back.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Kathleen: And I didn't want to or ...  

Ross: Yeah 

Brother Kathleen: something. I would, I'd be more 
likely to like to want to stay away from that person 
because I'd be like they're trying to make me feel bad.  

Ross: Well, you know this technology.  

Brother Kathleen: And I don't want to feel bad.  

Ross: You know this technology. You know this 
technology. But most people are going, "Uh oh. I 
don't want to feel like an absolute rude bitch. I better 
call him.” You know. And most people, I'm, I'm just 
saying that with a lot, and it doesn't work with 
everyone. Okay? But with a lot of people it does work 
to offer that challenge. So you like challenges in a 
different way. And understand what I did with her is I 
used her own languaging. Because this woman had 
talked to me how most women can't look past the 
surface and see something deeper. So I just mirrored 
back her own language with her. Okay? I'm saying it's 
not about the specific language, it's about the 
attitude. Yeah? 

Audience: It, it, it also, this is going to appear, this is 
going to appeal to some p eople and it doesn't appeal 
to others. Some people have kind of going towards 
strategy and other people having a running away 

from ...  

Ross: Everyone, almost every woman is motivated by 
a challenge. No woman, no woman is, is excited by 
supplication. Except sadists who want to kick you 
around for that. Okay? If you don't, if you do nothing 
else but avoid supplicating, you will do fine. And 
when you're going to make a move towards a woman, 
there's an exercise you can do. If you imagine a circle 
in front of you, everyone do this. Imagine a circle in 
front you, like maybe three feet in front of you. I want 
you to imagine yourself inside that circle. Okay? And 
I, consider a move you're going to make towards a 
woman, like picking up the phone and calling her, and 
look at that one and hear that one doing that 
particular move you're considering. And reach out 
your arm, literally physically reach out your arm and 
just touch a fingertip on that, and that you in the 
circle and feel its energy and say, "Is this coming from 
an energy of supplication or energy of challenge and 
structuring an opportunity?" Okay? If it's coming 
from an energy of supplication, you know not to do it. 
If you do nothing, that's better than doing what's in 
there. You understand? Sometimes I'll just do nothing. 
If I can't think of something to do, circle's gone, if I 
can't think of something to do other than 
supplicating, I'll do nothing until my mind comes up 
with a better alternative. You understand? If you, if 
you're in the woods and the only thing you learn from 
someone is what, where all the poison things are that 
you shouldn't eat, then you're home free cause all you 
have to do is don't eat those, eat anything else. Okay? 
Stay away from supplication and you'll do, I'm telling 
you. If you combine that, did you have a good night 
last night? 

?: Oh, I had some fun.  

Ross: You had some fun. Okay. Yeah.  

?- I had a kick-ass night.  

Ross: He had a kick-ass night. We, we don't want to 
get into it but you had a kick-ass night? Were you 
supplicating? 

?- You think I'm crazy? 

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Were you running around with a black cape? 

?- Yes I was.  

Ross: Yes sir.  

Audience: You mentioned safety.  

Ross: What? 

background image

 

178

Audience: You mentioned safety and curiosity ...  

Ross: Ah ...  

Audience: Casual comfort 

Ross: Casual, no I said casual comfort and enjoyment.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: But safety goes along with comfort. Yes sir.  

Audience: You had mentioned in getting what 
language do you use ...  

Ross: What language, I want you to explore. What 
languaging can you use in every phase of seduction 
from initially going up and meeting her to closing the 
deal, to if you get a number calling her and getting her 
to call you back that reflects structuring an 
opportunity or offering a challenge? You can create 
games, create a quiz game. Okay? Where you go, "All 
right. Here is a response. Is it structuring an 
opportunity or offering a challenge or is supplicating, 
errr" Come up with a creative ways to drill among 
yourselves for this. I do not want to be the person 
responsible for your learning. Yes.  

Audience: Explain supplicating if you would.  

Ross: Supplicate means to, to entreat, to make 
earnest, please. If you're the king and the king can 
pardon you for a crime, you supplicate the king for his 
pardon. Yes.  

Audience: There was a couple of times last night 
when I was running patterns and I noticed myself 
slipping into that old mode of ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: Ask permission.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: I'd just instantly stop it and turn it into a 
challenge ...  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: The result on their face 

Ross: Right.  

Audience: was incredible. Ross: Right. Now, here's 
the real key. Guys, here's the tricky part. This is the 
tightrope. Okay? The key is this. Can you start with 
the set of skills that you're not quite yet good at and 
present that skillset without feeling the need to 
supplicate with it? Just because, just because you're 
not completely polished with what you're doing does 
not mean that what you're doing has no value. I'll say 
it again. Just because you're not, I don't want writing, 

this is for you to understand and incorporate. Just 
because the skillset you have is not yet perfected 
doesn't mean that what you're offering, however 
imperfect, isn't of extreme value anyway. Even if you 
do these patterns n ot quite right and you flub it up, 
you're still going to be creating states of mind and 
feelings for her that no other guy can. So the 
challenge is can you walk into a situation where 
you're not quite sure if it's going to work and still do it 
without being supplicating. Without going, "Please, I 
hope this pattern works. Tell me I'm good at speed 
seduction. Oh goddess, oh goddess.” I guarantee 
you that will fuck it up. Okay? If instead you go, 
"Let's have some fun, see what I can do, see how she 
responds.” If your mindset is not "I've got to get her" 
but "Hey, let's see what happens.” More progress has 
been made in human existence through the mindset of 
"Let's see what happens" than has been made 
through "Oh my god, I've got to do it.” Let's see if 
you can join the "Let's See What Happens Club.” 
Write that, that one you can write down. The "Let's 
See What Happens Club.” I hereby appoint everyone 
members in good standing of the "Let's See What 
Happens Club.” And the dues for staying in the 
"Let's See What Happens Club" is at least once a day 
you've got to as yourself, "Let's see what happens" 
and you go see what happens. And then you share it 
with someone who's also interested in this 
technology. Okay? Cause the rest of the people in the 
world are in the "Oh my  god, I've got to make it 
happen" club or "What the fuck just happened" club.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Or "I wish it hadn't have happened" club. 
You're going to be in the "Let's See What Happened 
Club.” 

?: _____ .  

Ross: That is a compliment of which I am not worthy, 
but thank you. Thank you. That's a great compliment. 
I'm not worthy but thank you.  

Audience: What were the compliments? 

Ross: Doesn't matter. Anyway, so, don't we have 
something we have to do now? Okay. Are you going 
to let me know when we have to do that? 

Ross: Okay, let's do it. So how do we do it? 

?: They'll walk in 

Ross: Well, tell them to walk in.  

?: I'm not ready yet.  

Ross: Okay. You're not ready. You'll let me know 

background image

 

179

when you're ready. Okay? I'm serious. Let me know. 
It's up to you, you're running this show. Okay. So, 
does that make sense? 

Audience: yes  

Ross: When I first started doing speed seduction 
there was a period for like two years where I would on 
and off supplicate until I learned to stop it. Does 
anyone know anything about or d o we have any 
former pilots in here? Any military pilots who flew? 

Audience: I'm one.  

Ross: Urn, fighters? Did you ever fly, did anyone ever 
fly anything that got shot at? 

Audience: In _____ , I have.  

Ross: Oh, you have been in planes that got shot at. 
Okay. Well, one of the things they do with fighters is, 
modem fighters have equipment looks to see when 
radar is being turned on and is scanning them. Now 
why would it be useful for someone in a fighter or 
bomber to know that radar is sweeping their plane? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: Well, it means you could be, you're about to get 
shot at, okay? So they have a whole bunch of 
systems in new, in, in, in aircraft to, what they can do 
is based on the radar that's scanning you, they can 
tell you the kind of weapon that's about to shoot at 
you; whether it's anti-aircraft missiles, whether it's 
guns, etc, etc. Okay? You need to build in an 
antisupplication radar set - I'm serious about this - 
that tracks whenever that supplicating feeling is 
starting. Now women are experts at getting men to 
supplicate. Here's some ways women get you to 
supplicate. They don't do what they say they're going 
to do. They don't call you back. You ever have a 
woman say, "Call me at nine o'clock and we'll talk 
about going out, " and you call at nine o'clock and 
you get her answering machine? Have you ever had a 
situation where she says, "Call me at nine o'clock" 
and she's there to pick up? 

Audience: No, once 

Ross: Uh, uh, uh. Now is it, did it, sometimes but for 
the most part, gee, if you think that's just coincidence 
that she's not there? Chance will you at least 25 
percent of the time she's there. So, if she's not there at 
least 25 percent of time, guess what? She's fucking 
with you. Okay? She wants you to be a supplicant. 
Actually she doesn't. She's hoping that you won't. 
What? 

Audience: What happens when they tell you, well, 

when you ask them out and, I know I'm not going to 
be doing this anymore but I'm going to be challenging 
them, but when you ask them out and they said, 
"Well me back on a Wednesday ...”  

Ross: They want to see if you'll be their spare tire. But 
here's my point.  

?: I'm not needing and buying insurance.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: If nothing else comes up, they're available 
to go with you? 

Ross: Right. Right. So here's the thing, here's the 
thing. You need to build in in your mind a 
supplication warning system when ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I'm serious. Go through, what you do is, you go 
through with a piece of paper and write down all the 
things that women d o that have triggered that in the 
past and you wire, and you can tell your radar watch 
for these behaviors and the minute you get the signal, 
you step out of that and you move in to being 
challenging and structuring an opportunity. Okay? 
You need to build in, I have an enunciator that goes, 
"Warning, warning, supplicant, supplicating ...” I do. I 
have an enunciator. You know what an enunciator is? 

Audience: Warning 

Ross: You military people, what is an enunciator? 
What's the job of an enunciator?  

Mark?: It delivers a specific warning that's caused by 
a specific cue.  

Ross: Right.  

Mark?: So, if it says for example, oil pressure low, 
number two engine out, eject, eject.  

Audience: It's the rocking robot.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: Danger, danger.  

Ross: Yes sir.  

Audience: _____ the statement pay attention to 
yourself.  

Ross: That's a good one, too. That's a good one, too. 
But I'll have one that goes ...  

Audience: _____ .  

Ross: Yeah, of course.  

Audience: Laughter 

background image

 

180

Mark: You might want to consider another one that 
says stop paying attention to yourself _____ .  

Ross: And pay attention to externally. That's another 
good one that you need. Okay? Warning, warning. I'm 
telling you. If you can move out of the energy of 
supplicating and into the energy of challenging and 
structuring opportunities, then I guarantee you, I 
guarantee you, that even if you flub the patterns the 
patterns will still have a lot of power. I would rather 
have someone do a pattern half way right with the 
right energy than do a pattern crystal perfect with the 
wrong energy.  

Mark: If you get half way through the pattern with the 
right energy and _____ , she will correct you and she 
will try to help you _____ .  

Ross: Yes sir. Brother. Brother Kim? That's distracting 
(pause) me.  

?: Just an example, the last two days I've had 
phenomenal success and I haven't been able to 
remember any of the patterns. I'd be like getting into 
about two sentences and I'd just start to have to go 
impromptu and it was just using anchors, using 
challenges. I found challenges would just light them 
up. I'd start to go into, "Well could I ...” then I'd go, 
"Wait a minute, that's supplicating.” I'd go, "You 
know, well, what would it take for you ...” or I'd go, "I 
guess we can't get together tonight.” And all of a 
sudden they'd go, "Oh yeah we can.” And it was just 
interesting to see them go from a point of, "well, " to 
_____ , "I'm going to make sure this is going to 
happen.” 

Ross: You missed some great stuff.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Well, I'm serious.  

Audience: I know. I'm serious, too.  

Ross: We'll give you tapes.  

Audience: Okay.  

Ross: Okay? Yessir.  

Audience: Okay. A lot of times when you maybe 
calling a woman and she'll say "I'm on the other line, 
can you call me back?" How do you know if she's 
bullshitting you or not or if she's actually on the other 
line? Cause she's been trying to get you to 
supplicating or she could be actually wanting to have 
you ...  

Ross: He's got an answer.  

Audience: Okay.  

Mark: Okay, I tell her, "I understand. I don't have a lot 
of time right now. If you can get right back to me at 
this number ...”  

Audience: And I call her again, once and a while I get 
her. But she has it set up so that she's very 
unavailable.  

Mark: Okay, so what is the message? Okay, you hear 
all this communicating and everything you say, think, 
do is always a message, right? Now if in this day and 
age she is not capable of acquiring a machine for her 
phone, she's not terribly interested in incoming 
messages. Right? 

Audience: Right.  

Mark: But she is interested in communicating with 
you when she wants to with her message. Correct? 

Audience: Right.  

Mark: Is that the sort of person you want to be 
associated with? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: Part of being a non-supplicant is knowing when 
to go "I'm booting this ball.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Punt. Yes.  

Brother Orion: There's just one last thing on this 
subject ...  

Ross: Yes, one last thing.  

Brother Orion: This is just the reality of the situation. 
There's so much of this kind of thing going on and 
there's various stra tegies for dealing with it. But the 
real way to deal with it, you know, if you're not, if 
you're not in a relationship and you're looking to hook 
up with someone is to meet a lot of people so that you 
can play the numbers game and win it.  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Let's move on from this.  

Audience: Response from audience 

Ross: Let's move on from this. But I did want to 
include that little section because it's important. I 
want to talk a little bit about, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, I 
want to talk a little bit about context. I know some of 
you are still concerned about that and I promised I'd 
cover it. And again, these are not the only 
distinctions, these are just the ones that are occurring 
to my mind right now as I'm teaching you in front of 

background image

 

181

the room and you're listening. Really listening. That's 
right. Cause hypnosis requires you say the right 
words or does it? It's called the breath induction. It's a 
weird thing, I mean, think about it. If by your 
communication you can control as intimate as in 
private, and as private as how something is breathing, 
that's pretty, that's pretty cool, isn't it? Oh, we'll go to 
lunch in about 15 minutes. Okay? Let's talk about the 
context of what you do in person versus what you do 
over the phone. Okay? Now, basically you can do 
everything in both contexts. But on the phone a very 
good pattern to start out with, I really like, when I call 
someone on the phone and Brother Orion can confirm 
this, a great pattern to start out with on the phone is 
the Discovery Channel pattern.  

Brother Orion: You can jump right into it. You get to 
say, "How're you doing. What are you doing today?" 

Ross: Jump right into it. Cause it's typical for people 
who call on the phone to talk to what they saw on TV. 
From the Discovery Channel you can move on to 
incredible connection. And from incredible 
connection you can move on to the blowjob pattern. 
Some other things you can do on the phone are jokes 
and poems. They're really good ways to start out. I 
want to give you guys this road map. Okay? And I 
you guys, the other thing I want you guys to discuss 
among yourselves is transitioning from one pattern to 
the next. I've shown you that but I want you guys to 
make that a sub-topic of what you discuss amongst 
yourselves. Okay? Yes.  

Audience: Okay. There can be, you can't see the 
person, so there could be distraction at her end.  

Ross: There could be but she'll let you know that. 
Generally speaking there's not. And you can also hear 
responses. When you hear, (deep breath), uh, I've 
heard moaning on the phone, I've heard ah. When I 
read the poems, I've heard oh, ah. Those are good 
signs.  

Audience: Oh yeah.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: She's in the kitchen making something and 
her mom's coming in ...  

Ross: Well, pay attention to that obviously.  

Audience: That's n ot a good time to run this? 

Ross: Yeah, obviously.  

Audience: You have a list of classical poems, like 
Browning or ...  

Ross: I don't do, we have our own on the list. I'll tell 

you how to get on the list in a minute. Yeah.  

Audience: Just a little technical note. Make sure your 
phone is a good quality phone. I have a phone that 
when I talk on and I had to get rid of it cause people 
thought I was on a cell phone. I couldn't hear any 
distinctions. I went out and I got some phones and 
called them up, kind of run there and found out what 
it sounded like at the other end when someone talked 
on the phone it made a world of difference.  

Ross: And by the way, make sure you turn off call 
waiting, cause I hate to have, to be distracted by 
boop right in the middle of what I'm saying to 
somebody. Someone did that to me ...  

Brother Orion: It's Star 70 

Ross: It's 70 pound. It depends ...  

Brother Orion: Star 70.  

Ross: In L. A. it's 70 pound. Okay. Now, look at me, 
look up here, look up here. The phrase you use, one 
phrase you can use to transition from discovery to 
incredible connection is "It's just like ...” And a 
phrase you can use to transition from incredible 
connection to blowjob is "The other interesting thing 
...” Okay? In person, in person, in person, there are a 
lot of different directions you can go in person. But in 
person you can start with incredible connection, you 
can go to discovery channel and you can go to 
blowjob. This sounds so, to someone who doesn't 
know what we're talking about, they go, "What in the 
fuck is this?" Just give them this little section of the 
tape.  

Audience: Ross: Yes.  

Audience: one of the patterns over the phone  

Ross: Right.  

Audience: And then you go meet someone ...  

Ross: Okay. Now I'm going to talk about that. Okay? 
Let's say you do all this on the phone and you set up 
a meeting. The great thing to do at the subsequent 
meeting is a pattern we call blammo. Now I'm going to 
show you the blammo pattern later this afternoon. 
The blammo is like your coup de Gras. Anyone ever 
see bullfighting? What do they call that thing where 
the, the matador puts the sword in the bull for the 
final whatever that stroke is called? That's your ...  

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: Yeah. Brother Orion loves doing the blammo. 
Okay. I'll show you how to do the blammo this 
afternoon. The blammo is a massive sexual 

background image

 

182

accelerator. Okay? And you set up the blammo by 
talking about how interesting it is that people do 
things in their mind in a certain way. I'll show you 
how to do that. And also it's always good to read 
poetry in person. Poems, poems so on the, so you've 
got, you've talked to her on the phone and then you 
set up the meeting. Poems, blammo, jokes and quotes. 
Remember, another sexual accelerator is quotes. ”I 
can't believe it, Debbie. Men are so rude. I was in a 
bar and this man walked up to a woman said, 'Can you 
imagine me going down on you all night long exactly 
the way you like it? Did he really expect her to think 
about that and really enjoy those feelings all night, 
Debbie?" Okay? 

Audience: Where will you _____ .  

Ross: You can do the poems in the beginning, you 
can do the poems midway. Poems fit in anywhere.  

Audience: You said jokes. Well, ...  

Mark?: Poems all fit in the same category 

Ross: Yeah. They all do the same thing. Yes, yes.  

Audience: Between the Discovery Channel and 
incredible connection, what are the themes that 
connect the two? 

Ross: Okay. What is the Discovery Channel about? 
It's about how people can, what's the ideal attraction. 
And you say, "And as I thought about it, as  I 
watched the show, I thought, isn't that just like ... the 
ideal connection between two people.” Think of the 
Discovery Channel pattern. You're talking about. 
Okay, the Discovery Channel pattern you talk about 
how you ride that roller coaster, you feel excited and 
completely safe and you're fascinated? It doesn't 
make sense to say to her, "You know, as I thought 
about it, I thought, isn't that just like ideal connection 
between two people?" And then you go right into 
incredible connection. Yes sir.  

Audience: When you use the incredible connection 
patterns _____ slight variation from phone to in 
person ...  

Ross: Yes.  

Audience:  

Ross: Yes, yes. Repetition, yes, you can repeat. With 
slight variations you can repeat the same thing. You 
can say, "Remember when we talked on the phone 
about incredible connections?" Here's how you 
repeat something. You say, "Remember when we 
talked about x.” And you just repeat x. Talk about the 
law of repetition in suggestion in hypnosis if you 

would for a minute. Mark: Oh, sure. Ross: Major 
Mark.  

Major Mark: 'Mere are laws of hypnosis. Okay? Like 
all laws, all rules, there are exceptions. You use them 
someplace where they're appropriate, other places 
they're not appropriate. But where hypnosis really 
gains its power is not in trance inductions, initial 
suggestions or the responses to those suggestions. 
Rather hypnosis gains power through repetition. 
Okay? You can do this within a short amount of time 
by cycling through the same suggestion over and 
over again so that with each repetition it becomes 
stronger or more powerfully implanted. It becomes 
more native to their thoughts as opposed to another. 
You can do it through a different type of repetition 
that is spaced over time. For example, when I do 
clinical work, I used to do kick-ass nuclear-powered, 
single-session hypnosis work. They'd come in, they'd 
tell me what they want to work on, I would fix it for 
them, I'd show them how to do it themselves, and 
send them out the door. Okay? And I was charging 75 
bucks a session for this . Okay? I had tons of happy 
ex-clients and I was going fucking broke. Okay? So, 
this is not my business model. Okay? So, what I 
decided to do instead was we only do programs now 
where you come in and you talk about what you want 
to do, what you want to accomplish and we'll sell you 
programs. Almost like a health club. You ever join a 
health club, you know, and they never want to tell 
you exactly what it costs _____ talk about how good 
it's be when you're all buffed up and you can see 
through the window all these people who don't need 
to be in a health club but they're out there anyway? 
You know? So, what we do is we come in, we sign 
you up. Our minimum period now is nine weeks. 
That's what we consider really a short program and 
we sell programs up to a year. Now, in order to 
participate in the program, you must come in twice a 
week for about an, well forty minutes to an hour and 
we'll do trance work with you. Okay? Now people 
come in with something a reporting problem which is 
what they had on their mind in the first place. But, 
let's say somebody comes in and they're a hundred 
pounds overweight. Okay? And so they're thinking 
weight is what I really need to change in order to 
change my life. Well chances are there are many 
things that need to change their life . You will never 
run out of areas where you can improve in your life. 
And so we want to get them hooked on the process 
of change. And so we'll do repeated suggestions not 
only within a particular session but also repeated 
sessions over time. And you get phenomenal results. 
In fact, I can still cure people of smoking in a single

session, for example. You just take the smoking away 
and you give them something better; that we still got 
nine weeks left. Where do you want to go? You 
know? 

Ross: Now, ...  

Major Mark: You can ...  

Ross: I'm sorry.  

Major Mark: There's another way of compounding 
through repetition and that is simply compounding 
different suggestions. That is within a single session 
or single trance induction or in this case a single 
conversation, you want to give a series of 
suggestions through these embedded commands. 
Now, it doesn't really matter that they are different 
suggestions. They can even be suggestions heading 
in different directions. The unconscious mind doesn't 
care, it is happy to do wh atever it is that it thinks it's 
supposed to do, which is take this in and make it 
permanent. So you can give suggestion number one, 
fla, fla, fla, suggestion number two, fla, fla, fla, 
suggestion number three. Okay? By the time you get 
to three it's also reinforcing one and two. You hit four 
and that not only goes in but reinforces one, two and 
three at the same time.  

Ross: Now the trick is, when you're doing seduction 
is to come up with a structure that tricks her or 
distracts her conscious mind long enough not to 
recognize that you're repeating the same thing over 
and over, And the way you do that, if I might now, ...  

Major Mark: Uh huh.  

Ross: This is exactly where I wanted to go with this. 
The advantage about poems is, let's say you write a 
poem based on the incredible connection pattern. You 
can do the incredible connection pattern and say, 
"Debbie, it's just like this poem I wrote.” Or, "It's just 
like this poem I read.” You do the poem and it 
reinforces every single thing almost word for word 
that y ou just said in the pattern but because it's put in 
the structure of a poem, she doesn't think, "Oh, this 
guy is repeating to me.” You understand? That's the 
beauty of it. If you take a slightly different format you 
can say almost the same goddamn thing and reinforce 
it. And then you can tell a joke based on the same 
thing. Now we have poems, so let's say, ... let's say 
you want to talk about incredible connection. We 
have a poem on the SS list written by Brother Nick, 
Brother Nick Fortune. Beautiful poem called YOU 
CAN MAKE IT BE. So let's say you do the incredible 
connection pattern. You go, "Debbie, it's just like ...” 
remember I said those words - it's just like and it's just 

like when - will really get you laid? "It's just like this 
poem I read on the Internet.  

Two eyes across a crowded room, ...  

A spark electric in the gloom.  

A fleeting glimpse of one with whom  

You can truly feel free.  

For one long beat the contact held 

A time in which you are enspelled.  

A time in which two souls can meld  

If only this could be.  

Then comes a smile to match those eyes 

A gentle voice invites your sighs 

A voice as soft as butterflies that brush you tenderly.  

A voice that flows like liquid gold  

And warms your senses in its folds  

And gives in your heart to hold  

The hope that this could be.  

Okay. It's the same bullshit, different delivery vehicle. 
Okay? So, here's what you do. You can call her up on 
the phone, read her, "Hey Debbie, " quote the poem, 
"I heard this most amazing poem, " and then go right 
into the connection pattern. You can do the 
connection pattern and quote the poem. Do you 
understand? 

Audience: yes  

Ross: It allows you a structure for repetition. And 
then you get the same effect as if you were a master 
hypnotist and they were coming into your clinic. 
Except when they come in your clinic it means 
something's slightly different.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Okay? Are you get, or does it? Are you getting 
this? 

Audience: Getting the whole, weasel and vinyl seats, 
by the way.  

Ross: Is ...  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Okay. Is it, is the methodology for doing this in 
the context starting to become more clear? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Yes.  

background image

 

184

Audience: I've got a question.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: The examples you gave of the different 
patterns to use in ...  

Ross: Yeah Audience: in person versus on the phone 

Ross: Yeah 

Audience: Are those just random examples or is there 
a specific reason you chose those? 

Ross: They're the ones I, they're ones that tend to 
work really well. You could do the, here's the thing, 
here's the thing. Let's say I walk up to someone in 
person and say, "Excuse me. Forgive the interruption. 
I just wanted to tell you I think you are absolutely 
breathtaking and I wanted to find out what the person 
inside was like. My name is Joe Blowjob.” Okay? 
Okay. What sense does it make to say, "You know, I 
was just watching the most interesting show on the 
Discovery Channel.” It only makes sense to keep 
talking about her. And they way you keep talking 
about her in transition into the incredible connection 
pattern is to say, "I have an intuition. I know this is 
going to sound a little funny, but I have an intuition 
about you. My intuition is when you connect with 
someone, someone who you really like, you know that 
sense, that click, right there, blah, blah, blah, blah. My 
sense is when that all happens you can imagine a time 
in the future, say years from now ...” Get it? 

Audience: Uh huh.  

Ross: And then you say, "It's just like this show I was 
watching on the Discovery Channel.” But it doesn't 
make logical sense in the context of talking about 
what you think about her to immediately go to that. 
Do you understand? 

Audience: Right. I got you.  

Ross: Another context to pay attention is have you 
already been in or do you already know her, or is this 
the first time talking? And you can use the same 
patterns, you just have to use them in different order. 
Because, what's your name sir again? 

Audience: Jason 

Ross: Brother Jason. Doesn't it just make sense if you 
already know someone, if you already know someone 
and you can s ay, "I have an intuition about you, " but 
you have to set it up different. You can't just blurt 
out, "Hey, I have an intuition about you" to someone 
you've known for three weeks. Or three years. What 
you can do is say, "You know what? I was thinking 
about the people I know in my life and just all of a 

sudden I got this really powerful insight about you.” 
So instead of saying intuition say insight and explain 
the process that went, you went through beforehand. 
Does that make sense to everyone? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Do, logically, do you see the difference 
between walking up to someone you've known for a 
while and saying, "I have an intuition about you.” It 
just doesn't quite fit. Instead you say, "You know, I 
was thinking about the people I know in my life and I 
just got this amazing insight about you, this 
incredible intuition.” You get it? You have to do a 
little more setup. So, the only difference between 
already knowing her and first time talking is, here's the 
irony, if you already know her, you have to do more 
of a setup. When you already know her, you need, 
you need more setup. If you don't know her, you can 
go right into this stuff.

Tape 9 – Side 1 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 17 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Ross: If you don't know her, you can go right into 
stuff. Yes sir.  

Audience: Have you ever tried using song lyrics ...  

Ross: I've tried everything.  

Audience: _____ used poetry.  

Brother Orion: Ross? You just mentioned poetry. Do 
you mind if I read someone a poem? 

Ross: Oh, no. Sure. But let's set up the context before 
we do it. Come on up.  

Brother Orion: Come on up.  

Ross: How do you know Lisa? How do you know 
Lisa? 

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Ben, Brother Orion, how do you know her? 

Brother Orion: I just met her outside. I told her we 
teach hypnosis and seduction.  

Ross: Have a seat.  

Brother Orion: And that we're teaching guys how to 
communicate with women.  

Lisa: Can I just stand? 

Ross: Have a seat.  

Brother Orion: Yeah, have a seat or stand, it's up to 
you.  

Ross: Have a seat.  

Lisa: I'll just ...  

Ross: Well, just calm down a minute. Have a seat, 
have a seat and relax. You're a smoker, huh? 

Lisa: Yeah.  

Ross: Okay, now, here's the cool thing. We're going 
to have fun. We are not going to embarrass you in an 
unhelpful, and this is all going to be fun. What we're 
talking about here, I need, I need to give a context and 
then we'll turn you loose.  

Brother Orion: _____ a lot of time, though.  

Ross: I understand. We're going to move very rapidly 

and yet very effectively. So here's what we're doing 
here. What we're talking about and what we're 
teaching this weekend is we're teaching men to 
communicate in a way that captures and leads a 
woman's imagination. The understanding that we've 
been learning together is that men and women don't 
think the same. That in order for a woman to feel 
romantic about a man, he's got to touch her in a 
different place mentally. He's got to open up, not the 
part of your mind that thinks about the ordinary, 
mundane things you have to get out of the way, 
cause you have stuff like that.  

Lisa: Right.  

Ross: You have to do laundry? Right? Just cause 
you're a pretty girl doesn't mean you don't have the 
tasks of life. You still, I got to do your laundry. Right? 

Lisa: Of course.  

Ross: You got to pay your bills.  

Lisa: Yep.  

Ross: You got to do all that bullshit stuff. You got to 
do tasks and you got it out of the way. And the 
problem with most men who meet you is they 
communicate with you in a way where you think 
about them as a task that has to be gotten out of the 
way. Okay? And no matter what they do, once you 
put them in that part of your mind, as a task that has 
to be rid of, there's, they're gone. There's nothing they 
can do. They can beg, they can plead, they can 
annoy, they can pester, they can give you presents, 
but it don't mean jack shit. Right? 

Lisa: Uh huh.  

Ross: But the understanding I also want to give them, 
and, oh by the way, I want you to express what you 
really think. If you don't agree, let me know. It's fine. If 
you agree let me know. You agree with what I just 
said? 

Lisa: Yes.  

Ross: It's equally true, by the way, how old, young a 
lady are you? 

Lisa: I'm 22.  

Ross: Twenty-two okay. It's equally true and this is 
something they didn't know a lot of it until this 
weekend, that there's another place inside the mind of 
every woman, I don't care if she's young, old, pretty, 
plain, there's that place inside where you keep your 
most special memories? Yes? 

Lisa: Uh huh.  

background image

 

186

Ross: That place inside where you explore new 
possibilities, where you feel safe to imagine things, to 
explore that place where anything can be tried on or 
anything could be possible? The place where you 
keep your best memories, where you ponder 
fantasies, daydreams, unlimited possibilities. The 
kinds of things you do, if no one ever found out, you 
wouldn't even want your best friend to know you 
longed for. You know that place? 

Lisa: Yep.  

Ross: When a man can learn to communicate with a 
woman in a way that touches her in that place, don't 
you think that guy has a different effect on you? 

Lisa: Oh, yeah.  

Ross: Isn't it different? 

Lisa: Definitely.  

Ross: And what happens is maybe you go home. I 
don't know if you ever do this. You're lying in bed, 
you find that place in your mind where you think 
about the things you most want to experience and 
explore, and it's like suddenly this person is present in 
that place. You know what that's like? 

Lisa: Uh huh.  

Ross: Yeah. Can you feel that something you've 
experienced before? 

Lisa: Oh yeah.  

Ross: Yeah. It's a good thing. So what we're talking 
about is one way to do that is through poetry. That if 
a guy reads you a poem, he can open that place in 
your mind. Make sense? 

Lisa: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: Okay. So he's going to read a poem to you and 
...  

Lisa: Well, what am I going to have to do? 

Ross: we're just going to want ... Just listen.  

Brother Orion: _____ .  

Lisa: I don't want to be asked anything.  

Ross: Okay, no. We're not going to ask anything.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Lisa, I, Lisa, you have just have 
the coolest shirt. Is this not just the coolest shirt? 

Ross & Audience: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: I was telling her she got it at a store 
called Rave and I, and I, and I stopped her because I 
think it's really cool. I love fabrics like that. I bet it, can 

I feel it? 

Lisa: Go ahead.  

Brother Orion: That feels really nice. And I, and I 
think it's amazing how things that have that affect are 
sort of your saying, you were comparing it to like, oh, 
those posters that glow in the blacklight. They 
capture your eye in a certain way or the way like when 
you're driving along a country road and the sun, like 
when the sun is setting and the sun filters through 
the trees. It's like it captures your, your eyesight. It 
captures your imagination. And when I read a poem, 
that's what I'm trying to evoke. So, as you read it you 
can just imagine the kind of imagery that comes to 
your mind naturally. Okay.  

Have you ever heard a voice that seems to draw you 
near;  

To feeling a connection, an image growing clear.  

The more you see desire, me, I know that special 
place,  

The person who you've longed for  

Now you see it in my face.  

And you begin to notice how wondrous it can feel As 
warmth inside just glows for us, so lustrous, so real.  

A tidal wave comes crashing down, powerful and 
foamy 

And the tremors of an earthquake ripple up from 
deep below me  

Like sweet honey nectar flowing from my lips,  

A tongue to lap up every drop as quickly as it drips.  

The fountain of a fantasy, your eyes begin to close  

As the musky scent of passion starts tickling your 
nose.  

When desire is matched with rhythm, a single distant 
drum,  

Overpowering sensations invited you can come  

Along on a journey and deep inside your mind 

 Peaceful and secluded, on passion we can dine.  

Aloft on the wings of rapture, together spirits soar  

Wild, untamed and sensuous just like a lion's roar.  

How long ago it seems since the two of us first met  

As time is rendered meaningless or timeless better 
yet.

Seize this opportunity, this day that we have danced 
_____ as you sit there, so magically entranced.  

Take with you this rose, a red remembrance of this 
feeling,  

To lead you back here now or whenever is 
appealing.  

Ross: Like that? 

Brother Orion: Thank you.  

Ross: Ah, she liked it.  

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Brother Orion: How long _____ .  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Nice, Paul.  

Brother Orion: I just want to talk to you for a second.  

Ross: Okay. Outside. Thank you very much.  

Lisa: Thank you. Brother Orion: I really appreciate it. 
Guys, give her a big round ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Ross: Now, now, wait until she's out of earshot. How 
many people think she had a strong, positive 
response? 

Audience: laughter 

Ross: Now notice what he did. He spoke very softly 
so she had t o really listen. He spoke slowly so she 
could have the responses he was describing, and 
what did I do? I set it up so it was okay for her to 
respond. What did I talk to her about? 

Audience: Responses from audience 

Ross: I talked about how, I paced her ongoing reality. 
She's a pretty, young girl, mostly guys she meets, 
they're tasks she has to get out of the way. But then I 
talk about what it's like to access that different part of 
the mind, the part where anything can be tried on. So 
essentially I said, "go into that different place in the 
mind and from there listen to his poem from there.” 
Now, if he can do that in a roomful of horny guys and 
get that result, what can you do in private, over the 
phone or in person? All right, we're going to go to 
lunch. It's now 1: 10, when should we come back? 

BREAK IN TAPE 

(VOLUME VERY LOW) 

Audience: Applause.  

?: Before she gets started 

Ross: Before she gets started, let me just say a few 
words about . When I heard, the first clue I got that 
Kim was a woman of extraordinary intelligence, she, 
she was terrific. She came to work with me and I was 
talking to her and I said, "You know, it's not important 
for people to feel connected.” And she said, "I can't 
speak in the infinitive.” She named the exact 
framework that's called the infinitive meaning ...  

Kim: It means like if you to whatever.  

Ross: Yeah, it's called the infinitive. She said, "I can't 
speak Kim:  

Ross: And I went, "Whoa. She's so sharp.” 

?: It's mentioned that she's turned on, right? 

Ross: Oh, okay.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: _____ for a minute.  

Ross: Now there's a challenge _____ . She's on.  

Kim: Isn't it? Oh no, it was on me. Okay.  

Ross: It's on. Okay. Here's your, here's your marker if 
you need to use it. Kim is going to talk to you about 
one of the very most important things you can 
possibly do which is to learn to use your voice. 
Because, you know, if you don't use your voice, 
you're going to be up the shit creek without a paddle, 
so. Are you ready? 

Kim: No, but that's okay. I'm up here, so I guess I 
better do my best. Let's see.  

Ross: Let's give her a huge hand.  

Audience: Applause 

Kim: Stay up here for a minute _____ .  

Ross: Oh, I see.  

Kim: Okay. So.  

Ross: Doesn't she look a lot nicer than I do up here? 

Audience: Yes.  

Kim: I figured if I wore a skirt this short, if you didn't 
like what I was saying, you'd be entertained anyway.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So.  

?: Thank you, Kim.  

Kim: I know you appreciate the effort, huh? 

background image

 

188

Ross: I'm entertained already.  

Kim: So, first let you guys know I am not a 
professional speaker, so bear with me. If I'm not loud 
enough, just tell me and I'll project better.  

?: _____ .  

Kim: No, I don't think you want to do, that to happen. 
But, and the only reason I'm up here now is cause my 
boyfriend told me if I didn't get up here, not to come. 
So, I'm here. So ...  

Ross: That's called the move-away-from strategy.  

Kim: Yeah, it is the move-away-from strategy. So, let's 
get started. First thing, how many of you guys here 
have seen the movie THE TRUMAN SHOW? Did 
anybody here s een it? Do you guys like it? 

Audience: Yes 

Kim: It's a great, great movie. And it made me think of 
a lot of things. First, for the guys who haven't seen it, 
let me give you a brief plot synopsis. In the movie 
there was this guy Truman. And when he was born  he 
was adopted by a corporation. And this corporation 
put him on a big, huge, gigantic movie set that 
doubled for the real world for him. So, he's going 
along and he hits about 30. And then he starts 
realizing that something's wrong there and that things 
are being choreographed around him. And he gets 
really curious and starts trying to escape from where 
ever he is cause he doesn't know what's going on at 
all, so he keeps trying to get out and get out and get 
out. And then they have the guy who created this 
movie, this show that's on 24 hours a day, starts 
taking calls from callers. Now the first caller is this 
lady. And she says, "You know. I don't understand 
how you had him set for all this time and he didn't 
even realize that something's going wrong, that 
something's not right about it.” And his response 
was, "That people accept the realities that are 
presented to them, " which is very true in our world. 
And the second caller was an ex-cast member. And 
she called in, she was all upset saying, "Well, I can't 
believe you're doing this to him. This is horrible. How 
can you do this to this guy?" And he listened to her 
and he said, "Listen, I think you're more upset that 
Truman is willing to, was more happy in his cell than 
he is being out there.” And these two  things really 
made me think, because if you think about it, most of 
the people out there do accept all the realities that 
presented to them and they are happier being in a cell 
than they are going out and exploring new things. But 
then you have this percentage of people, such as you 
guys here, who are willing to try new possibilities. 

And you're willing to let go of the familiar and really 
step in to difference realities, and that's very 
important. It's like when you were a kid, and when you 
were a kid, you're really willing to try on new realities. 
One day you're an astronaut, the next day you were a 
race car driver ...  

Ross: I was always a transvestite, but that's ...  

Audience: laughter 

Kim: And you were bad. You were bad. But you were 
whatever you wanted to be at moment, and as a 

kid it was really easy to step into new realities and try 
new things. And as an adult people kind of started 

stick their little toe in the water and test things, but 
they're not willing to step completely into a new 

reality and try it on. So, it's something that kids have 
that we could all really benefit from. And that movie 

really made me start thinking about all that and it 
started making me think about you guys. I was like,  

"God, wouldn't this be great for Ross' students? All 
these new ideas?" So, today we're talking about your 
speaking voice. I _____ constrained right now cause 
I'm very nervous, but ...  

Ross: You're doing fine. Isn't she? 

Audience: Yeah, applause.  

Ross: Bunny, Bunny, Bunny, Bunny, Kim, Kim, Kim, 
Kim, Kim, Kim. You're doing fantastic.  

?: I thought you said you weren't a speaker.  

Kim: I'm not, but that's okay.  

Ross: You're doing great.  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: You weren't, but you are now. Keep going.  

Kim: Okay. So we're going to talk about your speaking 
voice. Okay? And some of you might be wondering 
why it's important to have a good speaking voice. 
Well, of course, it's a nice thing, but isn't it more 
important than what you say, right? But then, okay. 
But actually your speaking voice is what first attracts 
a person or what keeps them there. Cause people 
want to be around someone who's appealing to them. 
And if the voice sounds like nails scratching across a 
chalkboard, then nobody's want to, going to want to 
be around that person. Okay. So, and in Atlanta 
where I live there are all these good old boys. All 
right? Is anybody here from the south? Oh no. You're 
from the south? Where are you from? You're from, 

background image

 

189

yeah, you're from Texas originally. Where are you 
from.  

Audience: Maryland.  

Kim: Where? 

Audience: Maryland.  

Kim: Maryland? 

Audience: It's on the Mason-Dixon Line.  

Kim: Oh, god. I'm like that's the south? What are you 
talking about? 

Ross: That's not the south.  

Kim: If you don't talk like this, you ain't from the 
south, boy.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Audience: My family's from Louisiana.  

Kim: Well, that's the south.  

Ross: That's the south.  

Kim: Okay. I lived there.  

Ross: (Humming DUELING BANJOS) 

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Audience: Response from audience.  

Ross: President Clinton over there is from the south, 
ain't you Bill? 

?: I grew up in the south and I, many times when I was 
a child sometimes _____ have intercourse with my 
sister.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: _____ , there boy. But if you don't get up to the 
level of your mother, you're not getting anywhere 
now.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: But, now on with your speaking voice and how 
important it is, cause there are all really big old, good 
old boys in the south. And then you talk to them, you 
go up and you hear, "Howdy, y'all. How y'all doin?" 

Ross: Laughter 

Kim: And it just takes this big guy and it turns him to 
this little wuss right in front of you, you know. And 
the women aren't much better sometimes. And there 
are people with great voices there, but sometimes, 
there's a woman at this bar and she is gorgeous. My 
boyfriend told me before we went there, "You're going 
to see this girl and she is just beautiful.” And he said, 

"But her voice, nobody can stand her because of her 
voice.” And you go and she's going, "Woo wee, y'all 
good ole, howdy y'a ll" and it's just like to whole bar 
sits and cringes when she opens her mouth. Okay.  

Ross: I'd be gone by then.  

Kim: Sorry about that. But that's why your speaking 
voice is important because people do talk about it and 
people do notice it. Okay? And now I'm going to refer 
to my notes cause I forgot what I'm going to say next. 
So ...  

Ross: That just means the information you're 
presenting is so amazingly valuable that you yourself 
at times get overwhelmed by it. I think that's only a 
sign to be even more enthused by what she's 
presenting. Yes? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: That's all 

Kim: Shut up. Okay. So there are many elements to the 
speaking voice. There's pitch, pace, tempo, pitch, 
tempo, resonance; your breathing and posture are 
some things that are very imp ortant to your speaking 
voice, believe it or not. I'm sure it doesn't seem like it.  

Ross: I have a question. What about volume? That's 
important, too, huh? 

Kim: Volume's important.  

Ross: Did you notice what Brother Ben did when he 
was up here? Did he speak really loud like ... he was 
like this, quiet so she had ...  

Kim: Right 

Ross: to really listen.  

Kim: Well, volume's important in the sense that you 
want to use different volumes for different states you 
want to induce. But volume's important in another 
way. Each person speaks at a different level. If you're 
talking to someone who speaks really quietly, you 
don't want to be blasting them away because people 
tend to radiate toward people who are more like them. 
So if someone speaks pretty quietly you'll want to 
pace their loudness. And that's also something we'll 
talk about in tempo later because someone who talks 
really fast can't really communicate with someone who 
talks really slow.  

Ross: And this is very important ...  

Kim: It's very difficult.  

Ross: This is, and this is very important, thank you, 
it's a good point. When you do the patterns, I had a

student demonstrate for me and the woman said, the 
woman said to him, "Slow down. I want to understand 
what you're saying.” He was talking so fast that she 
couldn't process. So one of the things to understand 
about people is they speak at the speed which they 
understand.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross: So, if you're calling someone on the phone and 
they talk like this and you're trying to sell them 
something ...  

Kim: Then you talk like this.  

Ross: Exactly.  

Kim: Because they're going to understand, people 
understand at the pace they speak, like you just said. 
Okay? 

Ross: Right.  

Kim: And I'll give you, you're going to have that for 
an exercise later all on your own. We're not going to 
do that with me on stage here. It's something you'll do 
in the real world out there. Not like it's not the real 
world here, but, you know.  

Ross: This is kind of ...  

Kim: A little different.  

Ross: storybook real world.  

Kim: It's a little bit storybook. We're all here with the 
same purpose. So the first thing we're going to deal 
with is we're going to talk about posture, which I'm 
leaning down right now. But posture is very important 
because air is ammunition that you use to project 
your voice into the world. And if you're all hunched 
over, then you can't get enough ammunition to 
project your voice into the world. So now what I'm 
going to do is do a little extreme exercise with 
everybody here right now to show exactly how, how 
important it is. First I want everybody to try, touch, 
try to touch their shoulders together in front of them. 
Okay? Yeah, put your stuff down and lean your head 
forward. Now, I want you all to say, "I have an 
intuition about you.” 

Audience: "I have an intuition about you.” 

Kim: It's not that effective, is it? 

Kim/Ross/Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Now, a lot of you guys to a smaller extent are 
doing that by leaning your shoulders forward and 
leaning forward a little bit and closing off a lot of the 
area where you need to get air so that you can project 

your voice into the world. Now, we're going to do an 
exercise and I'll have you come up because you talked 
to me about breathing earlier. Do you want to come 
up? Or, he'll, no, you have to have it for breathing. 
What am I doing? I'm doing posture. I'm sorry. I keep 
skipping ahead. First we'll do posture. I'll do it with 
you later. I want, had a guy who wanted to _____ 
with posture. I don't, can't see him right now. He 
wants to do it? Okay, come on up then. Okay. Stand 
up though. Okay, you're going to have to stand up. I 
might have to get on the stool so I can get above you.  

Audience: laughter.  

Kim: But, for posture we're going to do a really simple 
exercise right now. And if anybody wants any more 
help with it later, like any stretches or anything, come 
to me afterward, because most of the people aren't 
going to need that. But for people who do, come 
speak with me. So, what I'm going to want you to do 
is this. - get on my knees up here. First of all, stand in 
front of me. Okay, Your shoulders are way forward. 
There. Okay. Let me get down. First of all, you're 
standing like, like this. You notice how far your head 
is forward? 

Audience: Right.  

Kim: And how far your shoulder is forward? So I'm 
going to have you just imagine some thing. And 
actually if anybody's taken Tai Chi here or anything, 
they've probably heard this before. What I'm going to 
have you do is imagine a string right out the top of 
your head. Close your eyes. And I want you to 
imagine this string right through here and I want you 
to imagine that string goes all the way down through 
your neck, down through your spine and all the way 
down. Okay? Now what I want you to imagine is that 
someone starts to pull up slightly on that string to the 
point where the head aligns with the neck and the 
spine aligns all the way down, so that if you didn't 
have the string, if you didn't have your ligaments and 
muscles connecting your bones, that each bone 
would sit right on top of the other until you were 
straight. Okay. Now, I want you to feel this and get 
used to this for a moment. And I want you to open 
your eyes only as quickly as you find yourself 
integrating part of this into the way that you stand 
naturally and remembering the way this feels. Okay? 
How does that feel? Does that feel different? 

Audience: Yes.  

Kim: Okay. And you will have to practice this and 
remember it. But it's a much better way of standing up 
and keeping yourself. Because now you'll be able to 
speak different, you'll have a different resonance to be

able to project. So, does that feel better? 

Audience: Yes. Kim: Okay.  

Ross: Now, I want, I'm curious. Let's hear him, put him 
back in that posture, let's hear him speak from that 
posture.  

Kim: We want to get him, we want to put, okay, now 
speak from this posture first.  

Audience: Hello. Oh, from the, from the posture I'm in 
right now? 

Kim: Right.  

Audience: Hello, welcome.  

Kim: Okay.

Audience: _____ hear something, I used to, you 
mentioned you're not a professional speaker. I, I used 
to teach high school students how to debate. And 
I've got to say, your speaking is very, very good.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Kim: Oh, thank you. That makes me feel better. Okay, 
it, it's up to you whether you want to do what he 
says. Because I don't know if you, I mean, you can 
always switch back and forth. I mean, you'll want to 
eventually stay in this posture but if you want to try 
speaking from another posture ...  

Ross: No, I want see it, only for the people at home 
who can't see him if I provide a dramatic 
demonstration ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: if you were to put him into the earlier posture 
and say something _____ .  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: and then get back into the other one. So this is 
his early posture.  

Kim: Okay 

Ross: for Kim to have to correct.  

Audience: I want to say I used to coach high school 
debate and ...  

Kim: That is different. Ross: Yeah.  

Kim: Okay. Now close your eyes and go back into 
that other posture. Remember the way it felt, right 
there. Okay. Now how does that feel? 

Ross: He's got to talk, _____ .  

Audience: I used to coach high school debate and ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Audience: I want to say your speaking very good.  

Ross: Wow, better.  

Kim: It makes a tremendous difference.  

Audience: Applause.  

Kim: Thank you very much, for being my first speaker. 
Yes? 

Audience: That almost made him about two inches 
taller.  

Kim: You know, that is, _____ it does, it makes you 
taller. Now, if only I could do it every day and make 
myself two inches taller every day ...  

Audience: Laughter.  

Kim: I'd be like six feet tall, but it doesn't work that 
way.  

Ross: But you wouldn't be nearly as sweet. And cute.  

Kim: Sweet? It's never been a word used to describe 
me, but that's okay. So what I want you guys to do is 
I want you all to do this exercise. I want you to break 
up in pairs and do it with each other and do what I 
did. You saw me push his shoulders back a little bit, 
help him correct, show him down, where it worked, 
and all you have to do is say, "I want you to pull up, 
just put the string down through" okay, and then 
have them be, be as if someone pulled up on that 
string, putting, aligning the head with the neck with 
the spine so that each, if there were no muscles, each 
bone would sit on top of the next naturally and stay 
there. What, you want to write it down? Okay. Ross: 
As if the bones naturally aligned without any muscles 
or ligaments ...  

Kim: And as if they just sit there one on top of the 
other ...  

Ross: Because they sit atop each other so perfectly. I 
want you to recognize in everything you learn there's 
a potential to learn more. As if, that's a weasel phrase, 
as if the bones, as if the bones were so naturally 
aligned that any muscles and, without, as if the bones 
were naturally aligned without any muscles and 
ligaments because they sit atop each other so 
perfectly.  

Kim: And I change it every time I say it, so however 
he words it, however it works for you, just do it that 
way.  

Ross: Right.  

Kim: So.  

Ross: And then it might be useful in this exercise to 
have the person say, "The rain in Spain falls mainly in 
the plain" in their beginning posture ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: Have them say it again in the new, open erect ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: posture.  

Kim: Or just, "I have an intuition about you.” 

Ross: Open and erect posture.  

Kim: Oh, god. Okay, split up into pairs you guys.

Kim: Uh huh, it does.  

Audience: It's just natural.  

Kim: Awesome. I'm glad you guys noticed that. That's 
great. It does.  

Ross: What did you guys notice? 

Kim: That it moves the location of his voice.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Kim: Okay. So. Now we're going to talk about 
breathing, which this part, this did help with already, 
with your breathing and breathing deeper. We already 
talked, okay. One second. Let me acclimate again.  

Ross: We just did posture.  

Kim: And now we're doing breathing.  

Ross: Breathing. Do you want me up there or do you 
want me off your stage? It's your choice.  

Kim: You can stay, but, yeah, you can stay.  

Ross: Okay.  

Kim: I don't care. Okay.  

Ross: Change microphones.  

Kim: We already did. I have it over here. And I have it 
ready to beat him on the head if he's too much. Okay. 
That's it.  

Ross: I like that. You know that.  

Kim: I know. He likes it or else I would. So ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: The other is the Kim Shoulder Hair Pull Control 
Method.  

Kim: I haven't had to use that in a long time. I have 
better ways of control now. So, now we're going on to 
breathing. I wanted to stop that line a little bit. We 
already talked about how posture allows you to have 
the ammunition to project your voice into the world. 
Now when you breathe, the air is the ammunition. 
Okay? So where you put your ammunition is very 
important. All right? No, not there Phoenix. Just cause 
my hand's down there doesn't mean I'm gesturing.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Okay. _____ just so cute and you know it. No. 
So we're talking about where you put the ammunition. 
Cause I  

shoot guns so I like this metaphor. Okay? Cause I do, 
had to learn how to take care of my guns, clean them, 
get  

everything together and then I had to learn how to 
shoot. Now, at first it was a little difficult and I had to 
work at it, but  

then it became natural just to pick up my gun and 
know exactly how to work it. Okay? 

Ross: And she's good.  

Kim: I do okay. I'm sure Pallone could kick my butt. 
But that would be natural. He's shot much more than 
me. So, now when you're breathing, a lot of people 
think, "Ha, I'm a man, I'm going to breathe into my 
chest.” Okay? But that's not right because if you 
breathe into your chest you talk like this and you 
don't sound much like a man. So what we're going to 
do ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: I can't help it. I know I'm not as funny as Ross 
but I'm trying.  

Ross: No, you're good.  

Kim: So, let's see. So what we want to do ...  

Ross: It's hard to be funny when you're that pretty.  

Kim. - Oh, god.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So, what you're, I'm going actually want to do is 
breathe in your stomach. Now I need another 
volunteer. He's volunteering right there. And he's so 
tall I will stay sitting in the chair cause I'm taller that 
way. Actually, I don't need to. That's okay. I'm secure. 
So you can stand up and you have your posture 
thing going on.  

Ross: Jeez, he is tall. How tall are you? 

Kim: I know.  

Audience: Six-five or six maybe.  

Kim: You know, six foot five guys always like tiny, 
short girls. Do you know that? 

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Not all the time. But lots of them do and I don't 
know why. I don't want to say I know, but I've heard 
stories. So what I want you to do is first breathe, just 
breathe naturally. Okay. I'm going to check something 
here. Cause where he's breathing you can't, you might 
not be able to see it. But he's breathing high in his 
chest. So what I want, so I going to have you do is 

background image

 

194

first just breathe there, okay? And as you let out your 
breath, I want you to let out a sound, ju st an "ah" like, 
like "ahhh.” Okay? Now I want you to move down 
here so, out, you're extending out here. Breathe right 
into where my hand is, okay? 

Audience: Breathing 

Kim: Okay.  

Audience: Too much drinking _____ okay.  

Kim: Okay.  

Audience: Ahhhh.  

Kim: Okay. Cause then we're going to move it even 
lower, down to your solar plexus. And I want you to 
let this stay still and breathe right into where my hand 
is.  

Audience: Breathing 

Kim: No, just keep, try it for a minute and let it, keep 
this still, breathe in deeper right into where my hand 
is.  

Audience: Breathing 

Kim: You don't have to let out a sound. Just, just 
breathe into here. Concentrate on breathing into 
where my hand is. Right into the solar plexus.  

Audience: Breathing 

Kim: Getting better. Calm down, you're shaking. I 
know, it's harder when you're not calm. Okay. There 
you go, you're getting there. You don't have to 
breathe all the way up. Just calm down and just 
breathe right into here while this stays still. There you 
go. Okay. Now try breathing right into here, so your 
stomach moves out as your breath goes in. If you 
want, you can put your hand on my stomach and feel 
how it feels when you do that.  

Ross: Her stomach. Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Can you feel that? The difference? Could you 
feel right here on me? Okay? And I don't move. See 
how there's no movement? Just breathe right into, 
into _____ right here. Okay. You're getting better. 
That's better. You don't have to fill your lungs 
completely, just breathe lower. Okay. That's about 
getting better. Calm down. Let it just drop. I might 
need more with him, it's not going down. Don't you 
know how to go down? 

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: I'm kidding. Kidding, I'm teasing you. I'm making 
you, trying to make you less nervous.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Had the opposite effect, maybe, but I don't 
know. So, okay. Now just try breathing right here. Fill 
your stomach with air, close your eyes, cause there's 
nobody here but us. Okay? And feel your stomach 
move out as your breath moves in. Keep your chest 
still. In, okay, there, you're getting there. Okay, that's 
better. There you go. Now, I want you to let an 
"ahhh" out with your, as you're, your breath out go, 
"ahhh.” Okay, that's better.  

Audience: Ahhhh.  

Kim: Okay. Now you can stop. But you need to keep 
breathing it to there, okay? 

Audience: It's all right there, right? 

Kim: It's all right and down. It's not that you're letting 
in, it's not really that you're taking in so much more 
breath, it's not deep breathing. Okay? 

Audience: I notice when I lie down, it seems to ...  

Kim: Exactly.  

Audience: _____ , resonate more down here.  

Kim: Right. And that's one thing I was, that, that's a 
good point. Because that's another exercise. We're 
going to do the breathing and having you, having 
you guys do this, dropping the breath down. Now if 
for any reason anybody needs more help what you 
want to do is lay on the ground on your back. And 
then it naturally, the reason it does that is because 
you're, stand up straight, is naturally when you lay on 
the ground it gives you perfect posture, or almost 
perfect posture on your back. And that's why when 
you lay on the ground the breath goes in deeper. 
Okay? So what I want you guys to do ...  

Ross: Oh, by the way, let me just make ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: ... a comparison for a point. One thing you can 
do when you approach an h. b. is if you focus on 
your breathing ...  

Kim: Uh hmmm.  

Ross: ... make sure your breathing comes from here, 
you cannot be nervous and it's an anchor to stand on, 
relaxed ...  

Kim: Right.  

Ross: ... powerful, balanced state. So one of the 

background image

 

195

things, instead of paying attention to internal 
dialogue, pay attention to your breath. If you keep 
your breath here, this is very, by the way,  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: Whoever is speaking ...  

Kim: Right.  

Ross: ... please turn off your piece of equipment.  

Kim: And after you ...  

Ross: _____ don't take it out of the room.  

Kim: And after you've naturally started to breathe into 
this area at all times, it's a good way to notice what 
your state is. Because frankly, even when I get 
nervous, I start to breathe a little higher and I can feel 
the chest constriction. Okay? But when you're 
naturally relaxed, when you relax, you'll naturally start 
breathing just into here once you start doing the 
exercises and getting used to it, okay? 

Ross: And be _____ powerful state.  

Kim: And then, and it'll make you a bit more aware of 
your state at times. You can tell a lot by your 
physiology what your state is sometimes, cause 
sometimes people aren't quite as aware of their states 
as they should be.  

Audience: So you can't hide your beer gut, then, 
right? I mean ...  

Kim: It really doesn't make a difference. I mean, it's 
like, I mean, I know I used to think that, too, cause I'm 
kind of obsessed with having a flat stomach. But, it 
really doesn't make a difference where you breathe. I 
mean, it doesn't, people,  

Ross: Most people ...  

Kim: People are more aware of, of what, of it 
themselves than anybody else out there because 
people aren't going, "Hi. How are you doing?" and 
staring at your stomach. They're looking at your face.  

Audience: Comment from audience.  

Kim: Well, yeah, but that's different.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Don't bring the rare exception up, okay? That's 
the rare exception. So all I want you guys to do is 
break into pairs and do the same exercise. The reason 
I'm having you let out the "ahhh" sound is because 
you can tell that the voice is dropping by the more 
powerful sound. Cause when I breathe up here, I'll do 
it for you guys. Okay. I'll change my breathing. 

(Demonstrating breathing) Ahhh. That's about all I 
can get.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Kim: Okay. And then here. Ahhh. There's a little more 
power, but then when I bring my breathing all the way 
down, ahhh, it has so much more power when you 
breathe in deeper. Now you don't have to fill it, for, 
what he was trying to do at first was to fill his lungs 
all the way up through his chest, from down here all 
the way up here. That's not necessary. You're Just 
breathing deeper, not more necessarily. Your chest ...  

Ross: Your chest 

Kim: will be still. Your chest will be still.  

Ross: Just breathing deeper, not more. Deeper, not 
more.  

Kim: I mean, by a little more maybe but it's mostly just 
a change of location into where you're breathing. 
Okay? 

Ross: Now this is profoundly powerful. How many 
here are martial artists, the study of martial art? How 
many in your martial art teach you about the 
importance of centering your breath? They call it the 
Don Dien ...  

Kim: Don Dien 

Ross: They call it the Ha Ra, different spots in 
different, in different cultures but they all talk about 
breathing ...  

Kim: Uh hmm.  

Ross: from here. In the Hawaiian tradition of Huna 
they talk about it. This has been around for 
thousands of years in multiple cultures. Try it, okay? 

Kim: Yeah. It's pretty ...  

Audience: Comment from audience 

Ross: Yes sir.  

Audience: Also, from what I've read, two-thirds of the 
lung vessels in your lungs are _____ of your lungs.  

Kim: Oh.  

Audience: _____ in order to get much better oxygen 

exchange if you're filling the lower area of your lungs 
with oxygen.  

Kim: Wow. I didn't know that. I didn't know that. It's 
good information though. It's more, it's convincing if 
they don't care about their voice they care about their 
body or something. Getting some oxygen, yeah.

?: More energy.  

?: World class cyclists also use this. What it, what's  

Ross: World class psychos? 

?: Cyclists.  

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: No, not you Ross. They're not talking about you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: There are already so many arrows in there 
there's no room for ...  

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: At least I don't twist them.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Kim: No, I think I put them more 

Ross: What did you just say? 

Kim: in the front. I don't even bother ...  

Ross: What did you just say? 

Kim: Like I even bother doing toward your back. I just 
do it right to your face. Come on.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Watch out for the little ones. They, cause they 
got to make up for it with the attitude.  

Kim: If we look this tall physically, we got to look ten 
feet tall energetically or however you want to say it, 
appear ten feet tall every other way.  

?: What happens is your lungs are right on top of 
your diaphragm and when you breathe from lower 
down ...  

Kim: Uh hmmm 

?: instead of your lungs pressing against the top of 
your diaphragm, your diaphragm goes down ...  

Kim: Exactly.  

?: and the air pushes it down and then it shoots it 
back up.  

Ross: Air is power.  

Kim: Oh, okay. And that's why your stomach's 
distending. You're not taking air in your stomach but 
you're pushing t he diaphragm down with your lungs.  

Ross: I thought you didn't use a diaphragm.  

Audience: Ohhhhhh.  

Kim: (slapping Ross?) 

Ross: Ow. Okay.  

Kim: On that note, let's ...  

Ross: Laughing 

Kim: all break up and get partners.  

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Kim: (Speaking Spanish) 

?: _____ A little bit.  

Kim: Okay.  

Audience: Comments from audience 

Kim: Okay. There's a whole bunch of people out in the 
hallway, so I guess I'm going to say it in class. We 
were talking about stretching and working out as a, to 
build good posture. Okay. Now the thing that's going 
on in the world today is a lot people work on 
computers. A lot of people are engineers, a lot of 
people are at their desks a lot and a lot of people are 
driving a lot. Now what naturally happens when they 
do that is they're leaning for-ward like this all day 
long. Okay? And they're working these muscles and 
not working the back muscles. Okay? So what's 
happening is the chest muscles tighten up and pull 
the shoulders forward and the back muscles atrophy, 
Okay. I think that's the right word, I don't know. So, 
so, I was showing some guys a couple of stretches to 
stretch out the chest and to strengthen some of the 
back muscles. Now I won't be able to show you that 
much in the class but I will show you a couple of 
stretches. Does  anybody want to come up and demo 
for me? Ben, of course, always wants to demo. So, I'll 
finally let him up. Come on, Ben.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Ben's like, "Me, me, me.” You know? Okay. So, 
what we'll do ...  

Ben: Orion.  

Ross: Orion.  

Kim: Okay, I'm supposed to call you Orion? 

Orion: That's okay.  

Kim: What, you have a stage name? You're special, 
nobody's supposed to know your real name? 

Ross: laughing 

Kim: He's incognito? All right.  

background image

 

197

Orion: Daaa 

Kim: Do do do. There you go. Okay. So what we're 
going to do is first do the wall stretch. I've already 
showed it to you so I'll have you do it right here. This 
is a stretch, yeah ...  

Ross: For those of you at home ...  

Kim: Now ...  

Ross: what he's doing is ...  

Kim: What you want to make sure is ...  

Ross: standing at a 90 degree ...  

Kim: lean like that ...  

Ross: at 90 degree angle ...  

Kim: and what I want to make sure ...  

Ross: at the wall ...  

Kim: is that you feel it right through there ...  

Ross: putting his ...  

Kim: Do you feel it? 

Orion: Uh hmm.  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: left arm behind him, palm flat against the wall 
and stretching his shoulders.  

Kim: Okay, put it a little, one inch higher, ...  

Ross: so his arm ...  

Kim: How's that? 

Ross: is behind him ...  

Kim: Is that a little more? 

Orion: I feel it right _____ down there.  

Ross: His arm is behind him ...  

Kim: But do you feel it up front _____ around 

Ross: palm flat against the wall, ...  

Orion: Yeah 

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: stretching his deltoids.  

Kim: Now 

Ross: What is he stretching? 

Kim: He's stretching his ...  

Ross: Superior vena cava.  

Kim: Pectoralis. I can't believe that muscle left my, 
pectoralis.  

Ross: He's stretching his ...  

Kim: His pecs.  

Ross: pectoralis.  

Kim: He's stretching his pecs. Okay. So, what we're 
doing 

Ross: In his case it's the pectoralis minor.  

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Ouch. So what we're doing here is, he has his 
arm about three inches above his shoulder. Okay? 
And what we're going for isn't him pressed up against 
the wall, it's more of an angle right here. Okay? A 
deeper, a more acute angle it would be, right here. 
Okay? Because what we're 

Audience: Turn him so we can see it over here.  

Ross: That's not a bad suggestion actually.  

Kim: Okay. How do we do it? 

Orion: Shift to the other side now.  

Ross: Do the other side.  

Kim: Do the other side? Okay. Yeah, that's a good 
idea. So what we're stretching out is chest muscles 
that everybody sits and uses at work every single 
day. Okay? There's another way to do it in a doorway 
but some people were having trouble with that so I 
chose this exercise instead. All right? And you want 
to do that 60 seconds on each side every day. It's a 
great stretch for the chest. All right? Yes Mark.  

Mark: You were mentioning to him that he should feel 
it in certain places. Where should he feel it? 

Kim: You, okay, Oh yes. You should feel it, the way 
you know you're doing the stretch right is you'll feel it 
from about here all the way down to the middle of the 
chest. Okay? And you can also do it at different, with 
your arm at different levels to get different stretches, 
but the main thing is you want to feel it from here all 
the way down through here, the _____ .  

Ross: Kimberly, for those who can't see you at home, 
are listening to the tape, describe where here is _____ 
.  

Kim: It's right under the clavicle ...  

Ross: Which is the collarbone.  

Kim: Which is the collarbone, about from the, the 
sternum, which is the breastbone, the breastbone all

the way out to the shoulder underneath the 
collarbone.  

Ross: The shoulder bone to the hipbone, and the 
hipbone ...  

Kim: Okay. Now that you've had your anatomy class, 
let's, okay. Does anybody else have a question? You 
had a question.  

Audience: I was wondering since we just talked about 
breathing if there's any breathing that's appropriate 
for doing the s tretches that makes it more effective.  

Kim: I don't really, I mean, of course, you're always 
better with deeper breathing. I mean, but that'll 
become natural. I mean this is more so you can open 
up enough to do the deep breathing. Okay. And have 
the correct posture. Cause they go together so much.  

Orion: My arms kind of fall ...  

Ross: Does anyone have a hammer and a nail? 

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Orion: _____ keeping it here.  

Kim: No. Probably, let go.  

Audience: Comments from audience.  

Kim: It's probably from being high up. So that's one 
stretch to stretch out the chest. Now after you've 
done that what you want to do is take your shoulders, 
hunch them up, back, and relax them down just like 
that, because that's going to allow them to reset 
further back. Once you've stretched out the, because 
they've been being pulled up in the socket, you're 
going to have them resetting lower, back in the 
socket. I did a few stretches and my shoulders 
actually in three weeks moved back over an inch. 
From, there's one mo re stretch; we'll try it but it's kind 
of difficult to show in front of a room. I don't know if 
you need it and you won't be able to feel it, but let's 
try it with you.  

Audience: Okay.  

Kim: What you want to do is put your, grab your arm 
behind your back and you literally twist your arm 
back in the socket. You're twisting it in the shoulder 
socket. Okay? 

Ross: Does it make cool noise to gross out your 
nieces ...  

Kim: Oh, yeah. But you make sure you keep your 
lower back straight, twist the shoulder back in the 
socket, ...  

Audience: And you twist ...  

Orion: Away from your body, you're twisting ...  

Kim: Uh huh. You're twisting it back.  

Orion: Back.  

Kim: Back. Take your 

Orion: _____ palm with your body ...  

Kim: Yes. It helps very much to stand up. Okay. And 
then what you want to do, and if somebody has 
trouble doing that, just take your shoulder and twist it 
back in the socket and feel to make sure it's moving 
back in the shoulder socket. Okay? Cause sometimes 
it's not so easy for some people to reach that far 
behind their back. Okay? 

Audience: All right.  

Kim: Let me show, I'll show you how to do it. Stand 
with your back straight, let your arm go. What you're 
doing is literally twisting back at the shoulder like 
that, okay? So you don't need to grab it. It's easier if 
you can grab it, but if you can't, do that. Okay? And 
now, what you want to do after you've done that, it's 
not going to work in this room, I don't know.  

Ross: Laughing 

Kim: Cause it's too cramped. Hold on. Here we go. 
Here we go. Okay, So what we're going to do ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: is ...  

Orion: Not me.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Lean back in the, you have it back in the socket 
right? 

Ross: Who's got those shoe mirrors? 

Kim: Shush. And what you want to do is then take 
your head, okay? Turn it away from that shoulder, 
away from the shoulder you're doing with it. Okay.  

Audience: Oh yeah.  

Kim: Stop the stretch and look down, _____ towards 
your shoulder.  

Audience: Oh yeah.  

Kim: And you'll feel it through this front.  

Ross: Wow, that's a great _____ .  

Kim: Okay? 

Audience: Comment from audience 

Kim: Then you just take it, okay? Take your arm, 

background image

 

199

watch me, and you literally, just watch it, just twist it 
literally back in the socket. Okay? You can feel it. You 
can feel each shoulder and see t he difference. Then 
you do that, and look down. Okay? 

Ross: Very good.  

Kim: You, it's like rotating your shoulder back in the 
socket is what you're doing. Just one at a time. Okay? 
And then look over, like you're looking over your 
shoulder, and look down. Can you feel that right 
through the front? 

Audience: Yeah.  

Kim: The thing is for the people who can't feel it, 
okay? For the people who can't, everybody's not 
going to. If you don't need the stretch, you're not 
going to feel it. Okay? But if you can feel it, you know 
you need it. And it's for, the place you'll feel it is 
there's a muscle here, muscles here called the scalines 
in the front of the neck. Okay9 And these muscles are, 
for the people, especially this exercise is for those 
people whose necks go like that and you can see 
them popping out all the time. If you can feel them 
there, you do some, yes, and you were feeling it, too, 
weren't you? 

?: No, I was just checking to see if I ...  

Kim: Were you feeling it though when you did it? 

?: Oh yeah.  

Kim: Okay.  

?: For people whose necks go like what? 

Kim: For people whose necks go forward a little bit 
like that, those are the people who are really going to 
feel this. If you can feel it through stretch, if you can't, 
hey, you're lucky, you don't need it. Okay? And if you 
have any questions about whether you need it, come 
ask me afterward. Okay? Cause I'm perfectly willing to 
talk to you guys outside of this, outside of being in 
front of the room.  

?: Cool.  

Kim: Okay? Does anybody here have any questions? 

Audience: Do the other side now? 

Kim: You can do that on your own.  

Audience: _____ .  

Kim: Laughing 

Audience: It's a good idea ...  

Kim: It is a good idea to do the other side, but I think 
you're the only one whose actually been sitting doing 

it, Ben.  

Ross: If you need help, I'm here.  

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So, any questions? Everybody got it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: Do you need help ...  

Kim: No, you don't have it? 

Audience: No I don't.  

Kim: Come to me afterwards. Okay? Cause it's not the 
easiest t hing to teach. That's why I was kind of 
reluctant to do it in front of the room in the first place.  

Audience: Form a line.  

Kim: What? Form a line, yeah. Everybody come get in 
the line. Okay.  

Ross: You okay now? 

Kim: Yeah. Not for that. Okay. So, next thing, really 
quick cause this has taken a long, taken a ...  

Ross: Uh hmmm.  

Kim: is, the muscles in the front, you stretch them out, 
right? The second part to that if you need this is 
strengthening the muscles in the back.  

 

Yates: This is the end of Side 17 of the Ross Jeffries 
Basic Speed Seduction Seminar

Tape 9 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 18 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Kim: I was kind of reluctant to do it in front of the 
room in the first place.  

?: Forma line.  

Kim: What? Form a line. Everybody come get in the 
line. Okay.  

Ross: You okay now? 

Kim: Yeah. Not for that. Okay. So, next thing, really 
quick cause this has taken a long, taken a lot, is the 
muscles in the front, you stretch them out, right? The 
second part to that if you need this is strengthening 
the muscles in the back. The rhomboids, the, I'd say 
the rear delts and the rhomboids are the two most 
important. Okay? In the back for this. Free weight 
exercise for rear delts. So you _____ just like this, 
straight back. Yeah. Well you can do it, you can either 
do it with your arms, arms flexed or straight. I asked a 
personal trainer, she told me straight was better, 
straighter, just a little bit, straight back, and you're 
going to feel it right there. Okay? Yeah? 

Audience: Would it be better to do those like lying 
down on a bench or, or bending ...  

Kim: No, because you have to do it, they're the rear 
muscle. If you're doing it on a bench, you're doing the 
chest.  

Audience: No, I mean laying, laying down on a bench.  

Kim: No, you can't lay on a bench. You can do it 
sitting or you can do it standing. You cannot do it 
laying down. You can do it sitting and do it like that, 
but you cannot do it laying, I wouldn't do it laying 
down on the bench. I mean, that's kind of awkward 
anyway. There are machines for it in the gym. And 
rhomboids, quickly, hands behind back, like this. Can 
you guys see or no? 

Audience: No.  

Kim: Well, you don't have to do it. Everybody just, 
just sit down and watch for this one, okay? Cause 
everybody, cause you're not going to be able to see if 
you do it. Hands behind your back like this and you 
squeeze your scapula, your shoulder blades together 
and look up and hold it three seconds. And do that, 
repeat it 15 times. And that'll get your rhomboids 

strengthened, Okay? I knew this took a while but so 
many people were asking about it that I knew we 
should do it in the seminar.  

Ross: Now, now the reason why all the posture is 
important is remember, the posture is going to 
determine how you can get to the breath ...  

Kim: Uh huh 

Ross: _____ determine how you're able to speak.  

Kim: And that'll determine ...  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: And we're not talking about pitch and resonance 
today, but naturally from proper breathing and proper 
posture, the pitch and resonance will start to follow. I 
mean on the tape, our exercises, but we're limited ...  

Ross: What tape would that be? 

Kim: _____ to time today. My tape. How to Speak 
with Voice.  

Ross: Laughing 

Kim: So. But on the other, but those that ...  

Ross: Wait a minute. Are those tapes available? 
Could they order them at, today some time? From Dr. 
Yates? 

Kim: Oh yes.  

Ross: Laughing 

Kim: From Dr. Yates in the back of the room right 
there. So, now, but we're not going to have time to get 
to those today, so we're just going to focus on a few 
elements of the voice today. All the metaphors on the 
tape, I'm not going to have time to do them today, 
either. There's a lot more on the tape, but this is just 
kind of a sampling and get you guys on the road to a 
good speaking voice. And believe me, before I used 
to have a horrible speaking voice. It was higher, no 
resonance, I had horrible posture arid through these 
exercises and all that, I changed my voice and I 
changed my posture. It's very different. So it really 
does work. I'm an example. So.  

Ross: She liked it so much, she bought the company.  

Kim: If I could afford to buy your company, hon, I 
would be a very wealthy woman.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Okay. Now, the next thing we're going to talk 
about is inflection, Now inflection's really important 
for delivering your patterns correctly. There are three 
ways of speaking. Okay? You can speak with in 

background image

 

201

command language, you can ask questions, or you 
can make statements. Okay? Now statements are just, 
you have a pretty flat tonality when you're making a 
statement. You have a pretty flattened, flat inflection. 
So we're not going to deal with that today. Cause 
what I've seen with speed seducers a lot of the time is 
problems with commands and questions. Okay? Yes.  

Audience: Could you define what inflection means 
please? 

Kim: Inflection is just the raising and lowering of the 
voice, the tone of the voice in a sentence.  

Audience: Okay. Thank you.  

Kim: Okay? And generally when you're making a 
command, the inflection drops at the end of the 
sentence. And when you're asking a question, the 
inflection goes, goes up. So, for example, if you're 
asking someone to go out with you and said, 
"(Breath) Let's go out.” That's asking them a 
question. But if you say, "Let's go out" you're giving 
a command. Now the problem ...  

Ross: "Let's go out?" 

Kim: "Let's go out?" 

Ross: That's a ...  

Kim: That's ...  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: Yeah. Because you're giving them the 
opportunity to say no if you're asking them a 
question, but if you're giving a command, they're 
much likely to just, much more likely to go along with 
you and just say, "Okay, let's go.” All right? So, let's 
see, where am I? 

Ross: Plus an example would be like, I don't know, so 
Kim if you can ...  

Kim: What? 

Ross: Closing _____ language from a pattern and you 
give the night inflection and correct _____ .  

Kim: We're going to do that later.  

Ross: Okay.  

Kim: Okay. (Laughing) 

Ross: _____ .  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Do that later. Yes, that is, that is command. For a 
good example of command language versus 
non-command language, on my way here I was in the 

airport. I got there, my flight was leaving Atlanta an 
hour late, right? So we get there, go have dinner and 
come back 15 minutes before the flight and they go, 
"Well, sorry ma'am, we gave your seat away.” Friday 
night, I said, "No, cause I'm getting on this plane.” 
And he looked at me and he said, "Well I'm sorry, can 
you, you need to go in the morning.” And I said, 
"No.” I said, "If I have to talk to you, your supervisor, 
his supervisor, his supervisor, and owner of this 
company, I'm getting on that plane.” 

Ross: Laughing 

Kim: And there was no question in my voice ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: that I was getting on that plane that night, cause 
I wasn't coming back the next morning. Okay? If I had 
said, "Well, are you sure? I'm, no, I'm getting on the 
plane.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Do you really think I would have been on that 
plane or would I have been sitting my ass here 
Saturday morning instead of Friday night? See? So it's 
very important whether you, how your inflection is 
when you speak to a person.  

Ross: And by the way, she got on the flight. Tell them 
what they did to get you on the flight.  

Kim: Oh. They, they had already given away my seat, 
they, they'd closed the doors and were about to pull 
away. The guard started frantically calling on the 
phone, said, "Okay, we're holding the plane for you, 
holding the plane, " frantically calling, went, opened 
the plane, pulled the guy off and gave me my seat.  

Audience: Laughter and applause 

Kim: Okay? And my, yeah, and my boyfriend was 
there, who is a master persuader, and I was doing 
such a good job he didn't even open his mouth.  

Audience: Laugher 

Kim: Okay. Do you have a pen, Ross? 

Ross: Yes.  

Kim: Here.  

Ross: I almost said, "Yes, sir.” Yes, ma'arn.  

Kim: Okay. Cause what we're going to do is, how are 
we for time? 

Ross: Ah ...  

Kim: Now that's a question tonality.  

background image

 

202

Ross: Like a, like another ten minutes. Can you do it in 
ten or do you need more? 

Kim: Ah, I need more.  

Ross: How much more do you need? 

Kim: Ummm ...  

Ross: Take a guess.  

Kim: Well let's, well, I mean I can cut things short.  

Ross: Well guess. How much more do you need? 

Kim: Half an hour. Ross: Another half an hour? Can 
you do it in another fifteen? 

Kim: Well, we can skip some of the exercises and just 
have them do them at home.  

Ross: Yeah, yeah, okay. Do them at home.  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: When you get the tape you'll be able to _____ .  

Kim: Okay, what I want you guys to do is practice 
command tonality. You can do this with each other 
during breaks, but we'll give you a few sentences. 
We'll start with simple ones. Okay? Like "Let's go 
out.” Okay? You just write these down and practice 
them. ”Let's go out.” Okay? I'll just write some down. 
Okay. Let's see ...  

Ross: How about, "Let's go clothes shopping.” 

Kim: No, that's the one I use on you all the time.  

Ross: Laughing 

?: "I'm getting on that plane.” 

Kim: "I'm getting on that plane, NOW.” Okay.  

?: Whoa.  

Kim: Just a couple of examples there. Just some short 
sentences to practice using command language. 
Okay? Because there's another thing about inflection 
that's even more important, you guys, and that's 
embedding commands. All night. Because what he 
does in the seminar is embedding the verb, verbal 
commands, like ...  

Ross: "Feel horny.” _____ .  

Kim: No. What's it like when you go inside and, okay. 
So what you're doing in embedding commands ...  

Ross: Ben 

Kim: When he's embedding commands in front of the 
room, you've got to remember that he is leaning very 
heavily on that tonal shift. Cause what you're doing is 

dropping your tonality Just slightly when you embed 
a command. Ross: Why am I leaning on it? 

Kim: He leans, I'm going to say, he leans on it because 
he wants you to hear it consciously so you can 
understand how to do it yourself But when you're 
doing this with a woman, you only want to have it slip 
'in unconsciously. She doesn't want, you don't want 
her to hear that consciously. So you drop it maybe 
just slightly in pitch for the verb that you're doing and 
whatever command comes after it. Like you're saying, 
"Feel horny.” You're dropping your tonality slightly 
on those two words only. Just slightly. Cause it's like, 
"What's it like when you go inside and come up?" 
and, and not dropping it a whole bunch. Mark's a 
perfect example. None of you hear when he drops his 
voice up here. None of you do. It goes right in cause 
he doesn't lean on it. Okay? So, what I'll have Ross do 
is write a couple of sentences with embedded 
commands ...  

Ross: Okay.  

Kim: and I want you to underline the embedded 
command and the word that goes, whatever words go 
with it. The verb. Yes.  

Audience: Question from audience 

Kim: I want you to go inside. You don't have to. 
That's just the way of marching it out, the 
unconscious mind can hear much smaller shifts than 
the conscious mind. So it's not, it's very simple.  

Ross: You can pause if you like. There are, there are 
different ...  

Kim: You can.  

Ross: ways to talk out commands.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross: You can even speak a little quieter ...  

Kim: Yeah.  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: Well, let's just give them ...  

Ross: Okay.  

Kim: the basics right now.  

Ross: It's not important ...  

Kim: They don't need to like hear every way of 
embedding a command in the universe.  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: Get confused, get confused. Mark only _____ .  

background image

 

203

?: _____ .  

Kim: It's any shift in tone. The general way is to drop 
because that is command languaging in dropping the 
tonality. So if you're giving a command, you're 
dropping it just slightly to embed the command. 
That's the most common way, so that's the way we're 
going to tell you guys today.  

Ross: It's not important to get aroused? 

Kim: Laughing 

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: It's not the point to get aroused. And find me 
very fascinating. Okay. So ...  

?: Very often ...  

Kim: So just write down these sentences, sorry we're 
starting to rush here, but ...  

Ross: Very often ...  

Kim: I thought I'd be too short in this, not in that way, 
but I thought I'd ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: I thought I wouldn't ...  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: Do any of you guys have questions about 
inflection? Okay? Yes.  

Audience: Could you just do one line to show us ...  

Kim: Uh huh 

Audience: they way it should be? 

Kim: Give me something to read, Paul, Ross. Let's see. 
Let me see if I can find something in here that I 
already have written. Cause I forget the patterns, 
frankly.  

Ross: How about this? How about these? 

Kim: Okay. ”It's not important to get aroused. Very 
often a person can feel fascinated. What's it like when 
you desire more attention? Now, with me, when I 
desire more attention, I just go inside and find a way, 
" whatever. You know? You can hear me embedding 
the commands right there. Could you hear me 
embedding them? Just slightly, though.  

Ross: Very slightly.  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: You're barely stopping on it.  

Kim: Cause you just, that's what you do is, you just 

barely stop on it. They'll get it unconsciously.  

Ross: When you start out exaggerating it and then 
you gradually take it down as you practice _____ .  

Kim: Right.  

Ross: to the point where it's barely perceptible by 
someone who's _____ .  

Kim: Yeah. Because it's not, it's really not important to 
stop on it, you really just need to do it very slightly. 
And that's why I wanted to make the point about how 
he speaks, because he's doing it for your benefit. Not, 
he doesn't want you to repeat this.  

Ross: Right.  

Kim: Okay? 

Ross: I want, yes sir.  

Audience: With a very slight change in inflection 
versus a very strong change in inflection, you're 
mentioning that we don't have to make it a great 
change but is it more impactful on the unconscious 
mind if ...  

Kim: No.  

Audience: you really make a big ...  

Kim: No.  

Audience: change? 

Kim: No.  

Ross: No.  

Kim: It's just the change, period. You can do tonal 
anchors, any kind of anchors. If I touch him, look, 
give me your hand real quick. Everything that impacts 
the unconscious mind, okay? So I'm doing a _____ 
anchor, which, have, do you guys know what _____ 
anchors are? 

Audience: No.  

Ross: We're going to show them.  

Kim: Oh, you're going to show them? Okay, well, he'll 
tell you what they are. But suppose he's in a state, 
okay, and I want him to remember that state by a 
touch. Okay? And if I touch him, that connects that 
touch with that state or, I was talking, I'm sorry, That 
connects that touch with that state, right? Does it 
make a difference if I touch him like that or if I go like 
that? No, it doesn't. It's the unconscious mind picking 
up on the difference.  

Audience: I see. So it's just for the purpose of marking 
it out that ...  

background image

 

204

Kim: Uh huh.  

Audience: the greater the change isn't going to make  
it any more powerful.  

Kim: No. The unconscious mind will notice it and the 
fact that you drop in tonality instead of going up 
does make it a command language, but the slight drop 
is fine.  

Audience: I see. Thank you.  

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: And also, the, the other way to do things is 
when Orion was reading the poem, his overall tonality 
shifted.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross: He was talking, not tonality, his volume. He was 
speaking a lot more quietly.  

Kim: But that's another issue.  

Ross: Yeah, yeah.  

Kim: Okay, so the last thing we're going to talk about 
then is using emotion in your voices. Now I have 
noticed that some people here have a little bit of a flat 
voice no matter what they're talking about. Okay? 
And especially if you guys are reading patterns or 
you're trying to rehearse a pattern or rehearse 
something you're not really feeling yet completely. 
Okay? It's much harder to have people hear that 
emotion in your voice. But you've been talking about 
incredible connections. You want it to sound like an 
incredible connection. Okay? So, what we're going to 
do is have you guys, well, we're not going to have 
time to do an exercise, night? 

Ross: We can do another, one more.  

Kim: We can do one more exercise? 

Ross: Sure, sure.  

Kim: Okay. And the emotion that you use in your 
voice is very important. Like imagine when you were 
all kids. Okay? Think about when you did something 
wrong. Okay? Now imagine, I know, all these guys are 
going, "I did lots.” Okay. So imagine if you went up to 
your mom and went, "No, mom, I really didn't do it. 
Kenny did it.” Would she have believed you? 

?: _____ .  

Ross: Oh my god, they _____ Kenny.  

Kim: No, she, she wouldn't have believed you.  

?: _____ .  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: But if you went, "No, mom, I really didn't do it. 
Kenny did it, I swear.” She's going to believe you 
cause the emotion in your voice is very important. In 
sales, especially when you're doing this kind of thing, 
cause if you want someone to feel a peak experience, 
you better be feeling it yourself first. Okay? You can't 
expect someone to go there unless you go first.  

?: Right.  

Kim: Like Mark said, you don't have to be there 
completely or as deeply as they are, but you have to 
be there. Okay? Now let me give you a couple of hints 
to doing this. Cause sometimes I know some of you 
guys are going your heads and going, "Okay, what's 
the next word of my pattern?" All right? First of all, 
that's not the best way to do it. But if you're going to 
have, if you're going to be rehearsing patterns, what 
you want to do is think, "Okay, what am I talking 
about? I'm talking about a peak experience.” And 
what you want to do is use your visualization skills to 
put yourself in a place where you are feeling a peak 
experience. Like you want to imagine an amazingly 
beautiful sunset if that's a p eak experience for you, so 
you can lead her into whatever peak experience she is 
feeling. Okay? Now, let me see. Like if you're 
visualizing trying to make someone feel lustful, if you 
guys in here are breast men, now you might want to 
visualize the pair of tits you've ever seen.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Okay? And you'll be able to sound really lusty. 
All night? It's makes it 

Ross: Watermelons.  

Kim: easier that way.  

Kim: Ummm,  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Watermelons. I mean, you're seeing some 
watermelons.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: So, what I want you guys ...  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: What did he say? 

?: What about _____ .  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

?: _____ .  

Kim: Oh god.

Ross: Watermelons. Kim: I don't have that aspect, but 
I have the legs, so I don't know what you can think 
about for that. So, what I'm going to do is, should we 
do this exercise or should we skip it? 

Ross: Yeah, do an exercise. Sure, do one more.  

Kim: Okay. One more exercise.  

Ross: You want to do another exercise ...  

Kim: Do you want to do it 

Ross: do you find it helpful? 

Kim: or do you want to just 

Audience: Yes.  

Kim: Are you guys sure? Okay.  

Ross: Begin.  

Kim: What we're going to do is we're going to 
compact two. Okay. I'm going to, first let me write 
these up, cause what we're going to do is have you 
guys split up and first we're just going to give you a 
few emotions to work with, a few, well, they're not 
necessarily emotions, I forgot to say that part. 
Because another thing about this is words need to 
sound like what they mean. Whether or not they're 
emotions, if you're saying that, "It was a really long 
day, " it doesn't express what you're saying. You want 
to say, "It was a really long day.” Cause words need 
to sound like what they mean when you're saying 
them.  

Ross: "I've got a really smalllllll penis.” 

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: And that's ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: And actually he's exhibiting another point I want 
to make. Little does he know it now, but ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: the point is also ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I'm out of here.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: I'll see you later.  

Kim: That you don't have to be, people are anchored, 
well, I shouldn't even use that word, certain, certain 
tonalities say a certain thing to people. Okay? Like if 

someone says, - _____ " like he says, they 
automatically think of lust. So you can add in a feeling 
to a word that, it doesn't necessarily correspond with. 
Like a little, really tiny penis. He's adding the long, 
people are thinking, "Okay, it's not real tiny if he's 
saying it that way.” Right? So you can ...  

Ross: I'm only speaking truth.  

Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Okay. So let me write up the words real quick.  

?: She's not denying that one.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Okay.  

?: Curious.  

Ross: For those of you at home, the passwords are 
curious, beautiful, amazing, anticipating, anticipation, 
excuse me, ...  

Kim: Okay. And, do all of you guys know the peak 
experience pattern? Okay.  

Ross: "Do you remember the last time you had a peak 
experience? Like maybe you were climbing a mountain 
or you saw a ...”  

Kim: I'm not going to make it that long.  

Ross: "beautiful sunset ...”  

Kim: laughing 

Ross: "or heard a piece of music that really moved 
you? As you put yourself back into those feelings 
while we're talking, the really wonderful thing is how 
sometimes you can just stop the world and slow time 
down ...  

Kim: _____ .  

Ross: "and let yourself go with this. And you know, 
Kim: Okay. I'll just have you guys do one because we 
don't have time.  

Ross: Yeah, "an amazingly beautiful sunset.” Great, 
very good. Good choice.  

Kim: Okay. Yeah.  

Ross: Very good choice.  

Kim: There's another one here that's good, but that, it 
exhibits saying thoughts with a lusty tonality, but 
you already know that. You've heard it all weekend, 
so.  

Ross: Lusty, tttttt. Brother Jed used to say, 
"Lustttttt.” 

background image

 

206

Kim: Lust.  

Ross: "You're lusty, lusty, pervert.” What's that? 

?: _____ .  

Ross: Okay. We need a minute 

Kim: Okay.  

Ross: ... to change tapes.  

Kim: Oh, is it done right now? Three minutes? 

Ross: Three minutes ...  

Kim: Okay,  

Ross: and we have to change tapes.  

Kim: we'll be ready, we'll be in the exercise by then. So 
what I want you to do is split up into pairs and use 
these words with each other, and you better convince 
that person that you mean it. Okay? Cause if they 
don't, if you don't convince your partner I expect them 
to slam you. Okay? Frankly. And then do this 
sentence using all the emotions with the different 
words. If you need to visualize, visualize. I don't care 
what you visualize as long as it puts you in that state. 
That's up to you.  

Ross: So here's what she saying. With this first part 
you want to say the words with a, with a,  

Kim: I'll, I'll ...  

Ross: inflection and tonality.  

Kim: ... do it right now.  

Ross: Okay, go ahead, do it.  

Kim: Um, curious. Whoa. Amazing. Why do I need 
this? I have a mike on.  

Ross: _____ .  

Kim: Beautiful. Anticipation. Okay? And then, "Have 
you ever had a peak experience? Like maybe you saw 
an amazingly beautiful sunset?" Something like that. 
Okay? 

?: Something like that.  

Kim: And that's, and, you know, everybody's going to 
be a little different, but you better be convincing. 
Okay? That's all I can say. Now split up into pairs ...  

?: _____ .  

Kim: _____ New York is different than the proper 
tempo in  

Texas. Okay? And Texas is more like a long, slow 
tempo. And in New York you're going to be talking 

like 

this and you're going to fit in with 

everybody there. Okay? So what you have to do, 
what I want all you guys to do tonight, or wh enever, 
when you have a chance, if you're watching the Bulls 
game tonight, you're not going to get a chance, is to 
go out in the world and listen to people. I don't care if 
it's women, I don't care if it's men, I don't care who it 
is, anybody, old people, young people, cause they're 
all going to be different and match the pace that they 
speak at. Okay? When you speak with them, I want 
you to speak at the same pace they speak at and the 
same volume. Yes, it's going to take practice. But
 

once you get there, y ou don't want people 

missing every other word you say. Cause if you talk 
like this and you're talking to a Southern belle, she's 
only going to hear half of what you say, cause that's 
the pace she understands at. Okay? 

Ross: So, if you say, "I really hate assholes, " she's 
going to hear, "I asshole.” Kim: Yeah.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: And the other thing ...  

Kim: yes.  

Ross: And the other thing you might want to do is get 
yourself a metronome.  

Kim: Uh huh. A metronome's good. For people who 
need to slow down in general, a metronome's very 
good. Okay? It's, if anybody in here is like that, get 
yourself a metronome. Otherwise, go out and pace 
people in the world and that is pretty much all I have 
to say today except for go out see THE TRUMAN 
SHOW because it's a wonderful, wonderful movie.  

?: So what's the tempo like? One and two and three? 

?: One and two and three 

Ross: Depends on the people ...  

Kim: There's no proper tempo, to whoever you're 
speaking to. Like if I spoke to you, I'd speak pretty 
slowly with a lot of pauses.  

Ross: And occasionally she'd go (deep breath), 
"Well, here's what I want ...”  

Kim & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: Yeah, if I spoke to you, I'd speak slower with 
pauses. Cause that's how you speak. So, and in 
everybody else here, it'd be a little different.  

Audience: What if I s-s-s-spoke like th-th-that? 

Ross: That's Matthew.  

Kim & Audience: Laughter

207

Kim: If it were you, I'd smack you. Yes, cause I know 
you don't have to speak like that. So, I hope I did 
okay, you guys. My first speaking engagement was 
_____ .  

Audience: Cheers and applause.  

Ross: Remember this. This is _____ .  

Audience: Applause 

Kim: Like I said, if anybody has any questions later,  

feel free to approach me. _____ . And I hope you 
guys enjoyed my presentation.  

Ross: We d id.  

Audience: Comments from audience 

Kim: Okay. Here you go.  

?: _____ this is the first time.  

Kim: Laughing 

?: I can't believe how you'll be later.  

Kim: I need that on tape to play for myself every day.  

Ross: Okay, we need people back in their seats. Okay. 
Oh, if that's, no, we've been up there for, for a 
demonstration, for, okay. Is everyone back in their 
seats? People have been begging me, bugging me all 
day, "Ross, tell us about the products.” Well, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Well, and my perspective is, I used to think, 
you know, how can I get, I used to think how can I 
get people to buy products now? But, I came to 
realize that really we don't sell products, we don't give 
seminars, we don't really, on one level we do, your 
turn is over and your turn is yet to come. It's my turn 
now. Okay? The thing is this, is, let me give you 
something, a little something off the top of my head.  

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Just teasing. Okay. The thing is, is I really don't 
think in, in a, in a, in a very major sense that we sell 
any products. I really don't think we present any, any 
seminars. What, what we offer is, I think what we offer 
is way, a way to reach ultimately where you want to 
go with women. A way to, not just understand things 
on the surface level, but to understand things on a 
very deep level. A way to open up new possibilities. 
Do you understand what I'm saying? A way to reach 
so far beyond what you thought was possible before 
you walked in the door that that just seems ridiculous. 
Okay? Does that make sense? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So, what we're going to be covering later in the 
afternoon, we're going to bring Brother Orion up, he's 
going to cover some basic patterns in the, in your 
workbook, word for word, so you can see how they 
work. We'll do a little bit more work with you. Okay? 
And, by the way, one of the things I wanted to say is 
that I'm very proud of all of you. I really am. I mean, I 
was griping at Kim yesterday like, "These guys are 
really the slowest group I've had in a long time. 
They're not alert, they're not getting it.” But now, I 
look at you guys and I think you're really getting a lot 
more, aren't you? 

Audience: Yes 

Ross: So give yourselves a huge hand.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: And, ...  

Audience: Comment from audience 

Ross: Yeah, very, very true.  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: What ...  

Audience: Comment from audience 

Ross: No, one of the major by products of being, one 
of the major by products of being here is that, by the 
way, you realize you're not laughing it off, you're 
laughing it in.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Because as Rex says, "When you're laughing, 
you're not in the past, you're not in the future, you're 
just completely in the present moment and every 
muscle is working together to give you one amazing 
feeling that you all want to have in your body.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's just the naked truth.  

?: _____ . body? Damn.  

Ross: It's just the naked truth. My personal 
recommendations, by the way, we're going to come up 
with some packages, we'll confer together, and we'll 
offer some group packages that you can buy things 
together. My personal favorites, we now have the 
tapes from Hawaii.  

Audience: Oh, yeah.  

Ross: We have eight tapes of me teaching the latest 
speed seduction, stuff I do not teach in this class. 
This is a basic class. This is very advanced stuff. The 
latest stuff plus we have me teaching marketing

208

secrets. If you want to learn how to market, knowing 
my marketing secrets, it's on these tapes.  

?: Oh yeah.  

Ross: These are videotapes. This is one of my 
absolute favorites. This is the seduction masters 
weekend tapes. It's me and Major Mark and a couple 
of other students just going deep shit, full bore, full tit 
boogie for three full days, talking about war stories 
and what we do in the field. People will often ask me, 
"Is there different material on each tape set?" 
Absolutely, yes there is. There's maybe 20 percent 
overlap but generally speaking, whether you buy 
audios or videos, you're getting 80 percent new 
material with each set. That's a tribute to how 
dedicated we are at stealing from all of our students. 
No ...  

Ross & Audience: laughter 

Ross: No, it's a, it's, it's, seriously, it's a comment on 
how we are dedicated to improving the material 
constantly. We have my classic book, which I wish 
would disappear, but it's still here, so, nonetheless, 
here it is. There's a picture of me in my smoking jacket 
with this hot date and a rib sticking out. Oh god, well.  

Audience: Laughter 

?: Ross, ...  

Ross: You know ...  

?: _____ .  

Ross: Oh, yeah.  

?: You need a mirror.  

Ross: We have 

?: _____ .  

Ross: We have the skills builder tapes. Now, where, 
are they here? 

?: Right here.  

Ross: Now I'm very proud of these. I got this idea 
from a marketing expert. He said, "You know, Ross, 
sometimes after I've reviewed your home study 
course, I don't want to have to go through the entire 
course just to brush up on one pattern.” He said, "For 
example, let's say I know I really want to get some oral 
sex, I want to just hear the blowjob pattern. Why 
don't you create a wonderful set of tapes that has a 
pattern per side repeated over and over and over 
again'.”' So we came up with the skills builder tapes. 
And what these, it has the incredible connection 
pattern. Side One, the blowjob pattern, my favorite. 

Side Two, incredible connection, Side Three, love 
versus attraction, stack, Side Four, stacking realities, 
Side Five, blamo, Side Six, peak experience, Side 
Seven, setups, conversational setups, Eight, linkage 
phrases, Nine, negation, and Ten is a special treat. So 
if you want to review patterns without having to go 
through an entire course, by the way, you can only 
buy this if you've already bought a home study 
course. This is used as a supplement, not as a 
replacement for. Get these. These are really good. 
There's a total of ten patterns and they're repeated 
over and over and over again per side. Good way to 
get it into your mind. One suggestion if you have a 
light and sound machine, put it on the learn setting 
and then listen to these.  

?: Oh yeah.  

Ross: It shows you how to custom design your state 
of consciousness that you want to be on. And it's a 
passive listening tape. I put you in a trance induction 
as you listen and it shows you how to custom design 
...  

?: I have friends _____ .  

Ross- I'm talking about bow to seduce strippers here.  

Excerpt from tape (Ross talking): I'm curious about 
something. I know that you have to walk a line. You 
have to walk a line between enticing the customers, 
getting them really hot and bothered, but not so hot 
that they juice all over you or try to assault you, you 
know? Or stalk you. How long did it take you to get 
comfortable walking that line? And they always give 
me a different answer. She, it took her like a couple of 
tries of dancing before she, she got into the groove. 
So immediately, she sees me as something other than 
a, than a mark, other than a customer. What I do is I 
just start talking to her about fantasies. I said, "You 
know, see, this place is really about fantasy and the 
world of fantasy really interests me. I think everything 
is based on fantasy, even jokes. Let me tell you a 
really good one.” I told her the Voodoo Dildo joke. 
How many people here have heard the Voodoo Dildo 
joke? 

Ross: I'm talking on the exact sequence of things 
seduce, to seduce strippers, but you'll just have to get 
the tape to find out more. Okay? How, how many here 
have the equalizer tape? Have you used it? 

Audience: Yes.  

Ross: What do you think of that? 

Audience: It's pretty good.  

Ross: I, that's one of my absolute favorite products, 

background image

 

209

so we ...  

Kim: It's an awesome product.  

Ross: Thank you. For Kim to give that kind of 
compliment, that's no small ...  

Kim: I think it's so important for all of you to get that 
tape night away.  

Ross: What the tape does is it drops you in a trance 
and I show you how to custom design your own state 
of consciousness. Remember I said that confidence 
isn't really enough? That you want to design a state 
that's part playful, part cocky, part outrageous, part 
intuitive, part clear-headed, part determined? It'll show 
you how to custom design that for yourself. I highly 
recommend that tape. Huh? 

?: Equalizer 

Ross: Equalizer is ...  

?: _____ .  

Ross: Right here. Here's the equalizer.  

Audience: You have a different order form than this? I 
don't see it on here.  

Ross: Is it on the order form, Dr. Ya tes? 

Yates: We don't have any of the products on the 
order blank.  

Ross: Do you have to write down ...  

?: That's not the catalogue.  

Yates: There are no products on the order form.  

Ross: Yeah, the products are here on display ...  

Yates: The products are in the catalogue and you 
have free catalogues _____ .  

Ross: Yeah, it's in there somewhere. It's in there 
somewhere. It's in there somewhere.  

?: Happens when you use the blamo. ”I'm going to 
knock you, wow!" 

Ross & Audience: Laughter 

?: "Mama said knock you, wow!" 

Ross: Okay. And also we're going to do value 
solicitation which is a very powerful pattern. You saw 
pieces of value, value solicitation when I worked with 
the lovely Brother Debbie. Right Brother Debbie? 

Debbie: Right.  

Ross: Right. How about that little Kim? Yaaa.  

Audience: Cheers and applause 

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Ross: Oh, tell us a little bit about that woman, oh, talk 
about troubleshooters and the woman.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Well first, you know, obviously 
the people who were listening to those tapes did not 
see the girl that I had up on the stage, but some of 
you saw the girl who I had up on the stage. Does 
somebody want to tell me what they thought of her?  

Audience: Hot, knock out.  

Brother Orion: Knock out, one to ten, come on.  

Audience: Comments from audience 

Ross: She's about an eight-five, nine.  

Audience: Seven and a half.  

Brother Orion: What did you think? 

Audience: Actually, she was a 10. She lit up a 
cigarette, an 8. 5.  

Brother Orion: Laughing.  

Audience: _____ cigarettes lower.  

Brother Orion: Okay, well ...  

Audience: That's my opinion, but ...  

Ross: She was a hottie.  

Brother Orion: She was definitely a hottie ...  

Audience: Comments from audience 

Brother Orion: And, and she walked by the door, I 
was outside the room talking to Yates and I, Yates, 
you know, apologized, but I had to go off and talk to 
her. Basically what I said to her is exactly what you 
heard up here. Interestingly Ross said that, the same 
patterns that I had already used on her. I was like, 
"Oh god.” But ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Oh, that's what you did ...  

Brother Orion: Oh yeah.  

Ross: to get her to come into the room? 

Brother Orion: I _____ natural versus culturally 
programmed woman, so, I also did the thing about her 
shirt. I said, "I really like your shirt.” She was with a 
guy at the time down the hall and the guy thought I 
was talking to her so they're both responding to me. 
But like he walked off and she stayed. So I walked 

background image

 

210

down and I said, I said I was doing a, doing a training 
at a, at a seminar on hypnosis and seduction and that, 
you know, a lot of women read things in COSMO 
about relationships and now finally men are getting 
on it and finding out about it. She was fascinated. 
And when she got up here, was she fascinated? 

Audience: Yeah 

Brother Orion: Did anybody notice any physiological 
changes? 

Audience: Oh, yeah.  

Brother Orion: What's that, bro? 

Audience: Her lower lip was swelled ...  

Brother Orion: Oh, yeah.  

Audience: She was ... Comments from audience.  

Brother Orion: That's what she was thinking.  

?: Breathing heavy and quickly.  

Brother Orion: Breathing heavy and quickly. And now 
...  

Audience: Breathing slow. Comments from audience 

Brother Orion: Breathing heavy and slowly. Yeah, the 
deep, deep ...  

Audience: It was, the upper part of her neck was kind 
of moving around like Jell-O _____ .  

Brother Orion: Ooo, like her pulse? 

Audience: Yeah 

Brother Orion: You could see her pulse pounding.  

Audience: And she started to swallow harder.  

Brother Orion: Now guys, I, I didn't ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: Oh god. I did it, I did it exactly as I 
would have done it if we weren't in a seminar room 
because it was real. Okay? And, and afterwards the 
reason I left, I didn't, you know, ask her how intensely 
she responded was because I followed her out the 
room, I had to get her to sign the nondisclosure 
agreement, you know, or Yates would have been on 
me about it. And then of course just as a slight 
afterthought, I had to get her phone number so we 
could get together. So, I wasn't able to get her 
response, but it was, it was the real thing. I mean, 
that's how much I step on it. You know? Sorry if 
anybody couldn't hear but I dropped my tonality way 
down, I embed my commands pretty intensely and, 
and she went with it. It's cool. So that was a lot of fun. 

One of the things that I've had happening during the 
break since then and, I guess at most of the seminars I 
go to, ...  

Ross: Do you need something to write with? 

Brother Orion: some people ask me ... Where are the 
tapes? Somebody ...  

Ross: Oh, ...  

Brother Orion: Somebody have the troubleshooters? 

?: _____ .  

Brother Orion: I, did they leave? 

?: Yeah.  

Ross: Troubleshooters tapes, tell them about them.  

Brother Orion: They already left. Well, the guys have 
been, me and Kamal, who's one of Ross' best students 
and a good friend of mine, get asked questions a lot 
of times during the breaks in the seminar. People want 
to know, you know, how is it that you do what you 
do, what have you learned, what lessons are there? 
We decided rather than answering everybody's 
questions again and again, we're going to make a 
product, we're going to sit down and record 
everything we've learned, you know, assuming that 
people already know these patterns, assuming that 
you know the patterns which I'm about to teach, you 
already know the tonality, what an embedded 
command is, you know, what a presupposition is, 
these kinds of things, what anchoring is; which is 
basically, you know, anchoring is simply when you 
get someone into a state, like when you're really 
excited about something, like, ah, for example, these 
tapes, right? When you're really excited, when you're 
really excited about something, you know? Maybe 
you can remember a time in the past like, like Kim was 
doing earlier, remembering a really intense state and 
right before the very peak of it, you anchor it with a 
sound, a touch, or something visual and that triggers 
off the state like Pavlov ring a bell? So this is the 
basic structure of anchoring and it's in the home, it's 
in the Secrets of Speed Seduction Home studies 
Workbook, which I'm going to be referring to in a 
moment. So, those are, those are the troubleshooters 
tapes. We recorded four tapes, high quality and it's all 
neat. We sat there and it wasn't a seminar. We were 
able to just sit down and pour our hearts out and say 
everything that we've worked and we've got some 
great patterns in there. Has anybody listened to those 
tapes? 

Ross: I love them. They're, I listened to them like three 
times, laughed my ass off at what balls out seduction 

background image

 

211

masters you guys are.  

Brother Orion: Cool. I love hearing that. That just 
makes me glow.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: You are, I'm serious. You are worthy to receive 
the ROS, the Royal Order of Sargie.  

Audience: Oooo, ...  

Brother0rion: Cool. Anybody else have any quick 
comments about them? 

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Audience: I think that the, that the best tape really 
focus or have you think about is, is your own 
flexibility because, you know, oftentimes if there's 
certain things that, that we all do, like we all might 
learn, you know, love versus attraction and the 
Discovery Channel, but the point being is you can 
really, you can really do this thing with just about any 
topic you've had to experience in your life and just as 
kind of a pathological example, Brother Kamal talks 
about using the same sort of process to make a 
pattern out of a dead fish.  

Brother Orion: yeah.  

Audience: Which, which, which is, is, is really kind of, 
you know, not very, not very sensual ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Brother Kamal is quite a wild man. He even 
quotes squirrels. ”A squirrel said to me the other day, 
" ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah. And when he was in the Hawaii 
seminar, he was just blowing the brothers away. 
Flexibility is a great one. I forgot to say when I was 
talking about introductions just having flexible 
approaches. Like with this girl, I talked about her shirt, 
I talked about how it was hypnotic, that was, I was 
repeating what I said to her when I initially talked to 
her to get her attention. So, I'm going to move on and, 
I'm going, I'm going to get into the patterns of the 
actual wording. This is all in the Secrets of Speed 
Seduction Home Study Course Workbook where, 
where the patterns are all down there word for word. 
So I'm going to move through them a little quickly. I 
don't want you guys to write it down, I want you to 
listen to me, focus on what I'm saying and how I'm 
saying it more than the words that I say. Focus on the 
tonality that I use. You'll have the words, you have 

the words in your notes. Focus on the way I embed 
commands. I embed them differently than other 
people. People have their own unique style, but focus 
on the way I speak and maybe the response that you 
get as you listen to it. Because I am a neuro -linguistic 
hacker.  

9: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: That's right. I'm going for it all the way, 
the deep states, quickly. I might start off the 
beginning of a pattern, if I'm first talking to her, using 
a more conversational tonality. But as quickly as 
possible I'm going to go from pacing the speed that 
she speaks and talks and thinks at to leading her into 
the states of mind that I want her to go into very 
rapidly. The core, as far as I'm concerned, pattern of 
speed seduction is the instantaneous connection 
pattern. It's the core because it creates the bond that 
lets all the other things work. Okay? So, I'm going to 
go into it night now and I'll tell you what. I'll tell you 
what. I'm going to have Brother Kim come up and do 
a, a value solicitation on her in a minute. And if you 
don't mind, you can come up and I'll read these other 
patterns t o you, that I'm not pretending. Is that okay? 

Kim: Laughing. Yeah, that's fine.  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kim: _____ use the metronome.  

Brother Orion: If we were doing it, if I was reading 
these patterns to you outside of the room would that 
be okay? 

Kim: No.  

Brother Orion: I didn't think so.  

Brother Orion and Kim: Laughing 

Kim: People have tried.  

Brother Orion: I bet.  

Kim: Tried.  

Brother Orion: Once.  

Kim: It wasn't a situation in Atlanta that I had to deal 
with once, so yeah.  

Ross: And they were dead meat.  

Kim: What? 

Ross: And they were dead meat.  

Kim: He got yelled at a little bit. But he thanked me 
later.  

Ross: Her nickname is Shredder.

Brother Orion: And now he's the keeper of the Kim 
McFarland, Mistress of Speed Seduction Fan Club, 
right? 

Kim: Oh god.  

Brother Orion: Kim, have you ever felt an 
instantaneous connection, like maybe as you were 
there looking at them, and you started to listen 
intently; it was like there was a cord of light going 
from you to them? And as you, as that cord began to 
glow with the warmth of the connection, maybe you 
were even able to imagine a time in your future, say 
six months from now, still feeling that sense of 
overwhelming connection and looking back on today 
as having been the start of it? 

Ross: Now, he's going a little fast. Do it at the right 
speed.  

Brother Orion: Okay. I just know there's a lot of 
material to go through.  

Ross: I understand, but I don't want you to go 

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Ross: _____ , I want you to _____ .  

Brother Orion: Okay. I'm going at the night, oh, okay.  

Ross: Okay? 

Brother Orion: All right.  

Ross: I don't care what anyone ...  

Brother Orion: I understand.  

Ross: _____ .  

Brother Orion: I understand. See, what I think is so 
funny is how some people can just do that and let it 
happen instantaneously. Cause for me, it takes longer. 
But I do find that during the course of an evening, as 
you start to get to know this person better, as you 
start to really recognize those values and qualities in 
them, that you hold so dearly for yourself, with me, 
that's when you can make that connection and really 
feel that growing bond. Okay? So, there are variations 
on that in the workbook. That's page 43.  

Ross: What I want you to do is value solicitation in 
one ...  

Brother Orion: I understand.  

Ross: Okay? 

Brother Orion: I got it. I'm going to do the value 
solicitation next. And I'm going to get into pretty 
quickly without talking a lot about why it's important. 
But it does get very rapidly at the very deep values. 

You can use the words, you can use the ideas and 
you can leverage them.  

Ross: _____ . Then you're doing value solicitation, 
when you're doing value solicitation it's the fourth 
doorway. It's asking questions that touch her, touch 
at core level, she has to go into a deep trance state to 
find the answers. Okay? Now, you do value 
solicitation after you've gotten deep rapport and done 
some of the other patterns. I wouldn't start out with it 
if I were you. I know there's some people who teach 
you to start out with it right away but again, I don't 
know how what they do in the real world outside of 
their seminar room.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Okay? And I'm going to write down her 
answers for you.  

Brother Orion: Okay. I do want to say that I can 
actually write down the answers while I'm doing it. A 
lot of the times when she looks up or something, I'll 
just sit and I'll write it down or if I'm doing a 
handwriting analysis, I want to have, or I'm going to 
write these down as soon as she's done, as soon as 
I'm done talking with her, cause I want to remember 
these. I want to remember these for a couple reasons. 
I want to remember the values, the words that she 
says, the rules that she has because I want to use 
them later. After the conversation I want to be able to 
list them and, and anchor them and more importantly, 
I want to, I want to remember them so that I can fulfill 
them, so that I can decide if I want to fulfill them.  

?: I'm just wondering what, when you elicit the values, 
are the words that you get once you listed the values 
also similar to their personal trance words? 

Brother Orion: They are oftentimes their personal 
trance words, especially when they start to talk about 
the subject of what's important to them in a 
relationship. You're going to start getting lots of 
personal trance words. You guys listen for them. 
Listen for the personal trance words and, and I will 
make a distinction between a quality in a person and a 
value in a relationship.  

Audience?: Can you explain what you mean by her 
personal trance words? 

Brother Orion: These are the words that have special 
meaning for her, that she will put a special meaning 
on, that have a real punch to them, an emotional 
intensity. And so when you use them back to her, 
especially if you say them the same way, you're going 
to re-evoke that emotional intensity and you can 
leverage it. You can do, you can move them in

different directions and create new combinations.  

Ross: Sometimes when you're doing the pattern, a 
woman will interrupt you and say, "Blah, blah, blah, 
blah, blah, blah, destiny, da da da da da da da, energy, 
blah, blah, blah blah, passion.” She'll give you her, 
now what words did she say? Destiny, energy and 
passion. They're words that mean something to her. 
I'm sorry. Go for it. Brother Orion: Okay. So you, I 
might, you know, I might start off talking to someone 
about "Have you ever felt an incredible connection, 
like maybe as you were there, really listening and 
feeling that sense that you were just meant to be 
together, that somehow destiny brought you 
together, feeling that bond, that cord ...” and talking 
about other things, getting her more connected and 
then, later on, start to ask her about, "You know, I 
think relate, I think that people make a big mistake in 
relationships when they ...”  

Kim: Hmmm 

Brother Orion: " ... think about what's important to 
them. They don't realize that, they don't, a lot of 
people don't even think about what's important to 
them in a relationship. And when they do, they 
confuse a quality in a person with a value in a 
relationship.” Now, I'm doing this a little bit differently 
than the wording in the book, but it's basically the, 
the important part is to ask her the question, word for 
word, don't change this, "What's important to you in 
a relationship?" 

Ross: Not "Why are relationships important?" but 
"What's important to you in a relationship?" 

Brother Orion: I've found those key words, when you 
stick to them, really keep you focused. The wording 
that builds up to it is also important and there is 
wording, you know, word for word, in the 
relationship, I mean, in the book, about relate, in, in 
the home study workbook about the pattern that 
gives you a nice setup for it.  

Audience: What page? 

Brother Orion: On page 56, but the basic thing that 
you're going for and it's called total fulfillment in a 
relationship, so this is for, for especially, you know, 
it's a good thing to look at for guys who are like, you 
know, you're just going to use this like, like our man 
here to hook up with three women in one night. You 
know? But you know, you can find that one special 
person and hook up for a relationship.

Tape 10 – Side 1 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 19 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Brother Orion: Especially when you can fulfill them 
and really keep them happy.  

Kim: But if you use those to get someone and they 
come after you and you don't really mean it, you 
better watch Out, cause they will track you down. 
There have been cases of people being attacked with 
knives. So you better mean it. If you don't mean it, use 
one of Mark's patterns.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: Cause it does a completely different thing. You 
don't want someone to feel an incredible connection if 
you don't really want to.  

Brother Orion: Right. Well, I mean, there's ...  

Kim: You know? 

Brother Orion: Yeah, that's right.  

?: _____ .  

Kim: There are other patterns 

Ross: Tell them the leg story.  

Kim: to use in that case.  

Ross: Tell the leg story very rapidly.  

Kim: No, uh uh, it's not appropriate, I don't think it fits 
in right now, but ...  

Ross: Okay.  

Kim: No, I'm just saying, I mean, if you don't mean it, 
don't do it because there are other ways to do it. Mark 
does it all the time. Or used to.  

Brother Orion: It's also what you, what you do with 
the values when you have them and, and what, how 
much respect, you know, you treat the person in the 
relationship with. I don't think just eliciting the values 
is going to get people chasing you with knives, but ...  

Kim: Not just eliciting, but ...  

Brother Orion: Right, it's ...  

Kim: ... once you've elicited and ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: ... if you decide to convince all them and you 

don't ...  

Brother Orion: Exactly.  

Kim: ... and you respect all of them and you don't, 
then there's a problem then.  

Brother Orion: Right, right, right.  

Kim: So you just have to be careful how you use 
them. So, ...  

Brother Orion: Right. So you obviously have some 
pretty strong ideas about what's important to you in a 
relationship. I'm sure there's ...  

Kim: Pretty strong ideas about everything.  

Brother Orion: Pretty strong ideas about everything.  

Kim: Laughing 

Brother Orion: Yeah, I can tell. I can tell. Absolutely. 
Absolutely. And, and it's something you've thought a 
lot about.  

Kim: Sometimes I do, but it changes a lot, too.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Okay, it does change a lot and 
it's important to be, to be flexible and in ...  

Kim: Of course.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. So if I were to ask you, "What's 
important to you about a relationship" what might 
you tell me? 

Kim: Let's see. Respect.  

Brother Orion: Respect. I agree with you. I think 
respect, that's tremendously important. It really is one 
of the, one of the keys for me. And like Ross says a 
lot of the time, you know, people define respect in 
different ways. So, ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: For some people, respect is that 
they're, that they always open doors for you, they 
always buy you dinner, but for other people ...  

Kim: Because that's nice ...  

Brother Orion: ... respect is this. Yeah, it's nice, it's 
nice, but that's not, might not be what respect is.  

Kim: No. No it's not.  

Brother Orion: For me, respect is when people follow 
through, when people, you know, are going to say 
they're going to do something and they don't, it really 
pisses me off and, and it violates. my personal sense 
of respect. So what does a person have to do in order 
for you, and I'm getting the rules for the value. What, 

background image

 

215

what does a person have to do in order for you to 
experience respect with this person because I know 
with me, that's an important value to have.  

Kim: Experience respect. They can't be 
condescending.  

Brother Orion: Right. They can't be condescending.  

Kim: They have to treat me as an equal.  

Brother Orion: Okay. What we got two, we got two 
there. We got the value for what must not happen ...  

Kim: Uh huh 

Ross: The rule for what must ...  

Brother Orion: The rule for what must not happen and 
the rule for what must happen, all in one ...  

Kim: Those are pieces of it, yeah.  

Brother Orion: Those are pieces of it.  

Kim: I don't even, I mean, I, those are parts, yeah.  

Brother Orion: Those are parts? Well, are those the 
major part or are there other small parts? 

Kim: Ummm.  

Brother Orion: Or are there other bigger parts? Like 
what's the, what's the, if you were ...  

Kim: Treating me as an equal is very important, so 
that's why ...  

Brother Orion: Treating you as an equal is important. 
You don't want someone looking down on it.  

Kim: Never.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Kim: I'd shred them.  

Brother Orion: Right. Absolutely.  

Kim: Okay.  

Brother 0rion: Okay. So respect is very important.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: And, and you know, and, well let me 
ask you, when someone, how do you know that 
someone's treating you like an equal? 

Ross: Did you hear the question? How do you know 
that somebody's treating you like an equal? 

Brother Orion: Is that one, I want to clarify that.  

Kim: They respect my opinion, they want my opinion, 
they look at it as something that is useful to them ...  

Brother Orion: Uh huh.  

Kim: That would, things like that.  

Brother Orion: Good. They see your opinion as being 
useful. So they value your brains as well as your 
beauty. You didn't say that. That's not, you know, 
that, it's a different way of saying it, but it's like, you 
know, they, they do respect your value, your 
opinions ...  

Kim: My intelligence, my opinions ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah. Yeah, and they take ...  

Kim: My talents, my skills, all that.  

Brother Orion: Good.  

Kim: It's very important.  

Brother Orion: Excellent, excellent. So that they're, that 
they are able to really appreciate your values, your 
skills, ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross: Now what does that imply that somebody has 
to do? They have to do what with it then? 

Brother Orion: They have to listen, ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Ross: They better listen.  

Brother Orion: They better listen, right, to what, to 
what she's saying and appreciate it. You know? This 
is not somebody who you, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, honey, 
okay, but I'm going to do something else.” No.  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: You want somebody to listen to every 
word ...  

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: and to appreciate ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: ... your, your skills ...  

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: ... and your ability and your opinion.  

Kim: Yeah, and at least if I give an opinion, they don't 
have to necessarily do it, but they at least have to 
take it into consideration and look at it as valid.  

Brother Orion: Right, right. And, and to be 
considerate of your, of your opinion and to respect 
that.  

background image

 

216

Kim: Uh huh. And respect my opinion, yes.  

Brother Orion: Let me, I just want to stop here for a 
second. Now, did anybody hear what I was doing 
here? I was repeating back basically word for word 
what You said.  

Kim: Uh huh. Brother Orion: I wasn't adding my own 
words, I wasn't re-interpreted, I wasn't active 
listening, I mean, what a crock. You know? That's not 
respecting someone's opinion, is it, if you rephrase 
their opinion and so you, so what you really mean ...  

Kim: Yeah, that's not.  

Brother Orion: if you want somebody ...  

Kim: I'd say, "No, what I really mean is what I said.” 

Brother Orion: Exactly. And what I want to ask you is 
when I repeat back your words to you, does it feel like 
I'm doing something artificial, like I'm ... ? 

Kim: No.  

Brother Orion: No, not at all. Even though you know 
exactly what I'm doing. You know, ...  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: ... you train this stuff.  

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kim: Familiar.  

Brother Orion: Let me, let me finish _____ this.  

What else is important to your relationship? 

Ross: Okay. So the questions are "What's important 
to You in a relationship, how do you, " when she 
names it, you say, "How do you know when you're 
getting that, how do you know if someone is giving 
you that?" 

Brother Orion: Right. And what must not happen.  

Ross: And why are you as king that? So you can find 
out what behaviors you need to give her. So the first 
thing that you're determining what it is she wants, 
then you're determining how specifically she needs to 
get it, to know she's getting it. Very good. _____ 
what else is there? 

Brother Orion: What else is important to you in a 
relationship? 

Kim: Consideration.  

Brother Orion: Consideration.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. Absolutely. And how do you 
know when someone's being considerate of you? 

Kim: Ummm 

Brother Orion: And has that consideration? 

Kim: That if something they're doing affects me or 
even a time that they'll at least call to tell me what's 
going on, ...  

Brother Orion: Uh huh.  

Kim: Be respectful of, like say if they, I know that 
they're getting home at a certain time ...  

Brother Orion: Uh huh.  

Kim: ... and they know that I know and I might be 
calling or something. And they're out five hours later 
...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: I'll be worried if they don't call me.  

Brother Orion: Sure, sure.  

Kim: That they call me. Just, just considerate, just that 
...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: They're considerate of my feelings, ...  

Brother Orion: Uh huh.  

Kim: and think about how things will affect me ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: ... that they do.  

Brother Orion: Right. How do you know when 
someone's being considerate of your feelings? 

Kim: That's mostly just, I guess, respecting my 
feelings, acknowledging them, not saying that, "Oh, 
you shouldn't feel this way.” Well, no, I should feel 
this way.  

Brother Orion: So, acknowledging your feelings.  

Kim: Acknowledging that I feel that way, maybe 
supporting, be supportive.  

Ross: Now, sometimes what'll happen is you'll get 
values that are really close, so, like she said, respect 
and consideration. To me they sound really close, so 
may I, if I may, ooooo (ringing in background).  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Bad thing, bad thing. If I, if I were to step in and 
say, "What's, what's the difference between respect 
and consideration, cause I'm confused here frankly, 

background image

 

217

what is the difference?" 

Kim: Respect is just treating me as an equal, we're on 
par.  

Ross: Uh huh.  

Kim: Okay? Consideration is when they're doing 
things even when we're not together if they think it'll 
affect me in some way. At least giving me a call to 
say, "Hey, honey, I'm not dead, I've just been, 
decided to hang out with some friends for a few 
hours.” 

Ross: So consideration has to do with those 
behaviors that, that take place when the person is not 
in your presence? 

Kim: And. well, in my presence, too.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: You know, I mean it, but just ...  

Brother Orion: Well, this is the difference that I see 
happening.  

Ross: Okay.  

Brother Orion: Is that, is that respect is more about 
somebody, when you have an opinion, when you 
have an idea ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: ... or skill and you express it ... Kim: Uh 
huh.  

Brother Orion: ... the people say, "That's valuable.” 

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Consideration is when you have a 
feeling, an emotional state, people say,  

Ross: Very good.  

Brother Orion: "That's important.” 

Ross: It's a very good ...  

Brother Orion: That your, your ...  

Kim: That's part of it, yeah.  

Brother Orion: ... feelings are important ...  

Kim: That's ...  

Brother Orion: ... but, but even ...  

Kim: _____ .  

Brother Orion: ... more importantly, that people don't 
ignore your feelings, especially ...  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: ... when they're not around you, that 
they don't think ...  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: ...” Whatever, I'm away from her, she'll 
be fine on her own.” That you want people ...  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: ... to touch, to touch bases with you ...  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: To give you a call.  

Kim: And if they say that I'm going to call, they'd 
better call.  

Brother Orion: They'd better call.  

Kim: When they said they did.  

Brother Orion: Yeah.  

Kim: Or else I will scream at them.  

Brother Orion: Well let me, let me ask _____ , let me a 
different, a different way here. This is the idea of a 
hierarchy of values SO that if you want to go up one 
you might choose one of, of, you know, if there's one 
that's interesting to you, like, I think, I think 
consideration sounds like an interesting one. If I were 
to ask you what's important to you about 
consideration, what might you tell me? 

Kim: What do you mean? 

Brother Orion: Well. what I'm trying to get is, is, I'll 
just tell you this structure here, is that I'm trying to 
get a higher value. Well. consideration is important to 
you, right? 

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: And when you're in a relationship that 
has consideration, you know, you enjoy that, you 
want to be ...  

Kim: Well, I'm also more aware of what is missing 
when you're in a relationship ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: Of course, respect is always as the forefront 
because that's ...  

Brother Orion: Ahhh.  

Kim: Not because it's missing ever but because it's 
very, just extremely important to me.  

Brother Orion: It is important to use that.  

Kim: But when something that people, since I'm in a 

background image

 

218

relationship, I guess, ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: ... things become more obvious in my forefront 
when ...  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: ... they're not quite there ...  

Brother Orion: Yeah, yeah.  

Kim: or they're coming, yeah.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. Absolutely.  

Kim: So that's why consideration ...  

Brother Orion: Absolutely. And, and of course I'm 
trying to be, you know, trying to be, obviously get to 
things that are both you know, things that you want 
to have and things that you ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: ... you know, don't want to have as 
well.  

Kim: Right.  

Brother Orion: Let me ask you. What's important to 
you about respect? 

Kim: What's important to me about respect? 

Brother Orion: Uh huh.  

Kim: What do you mean then? 

Ross: Well, another way to put it, if I may, another 
way to ask the question is, "What does having 
respect ...”  

Brother Orion: Allow you to experience.  

Ross: " ... allow you to experience? When you're with 
someone and you know you're being respected, 
what's that ...”  

Kim: Hmmm, what's it allow me to experience? 

Ross: " ... allow you to experience?" 

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: Umm, all I can think of is like total respected.  

Brother Orion: Respected.  

Kim: But I feel cared for of course.  

Brother Orion: If you ...  

Ross: _____ cared for.  

Brother Orion: Cause respect could be a top value.  

It could be for her.  

Kim: It's very, it's very high.  

Brother Orion: It's very high. But we can get one 
higher. We can get ...  

Kim: Maybe, let's see.  

Brother Orion: We can get ...  

Kim: What does respect allow me to feel? 

Brother Orion: Or what's important to you about 
respect? 

Kim: Experience. Umm, ...  

Brother Orion: Could be feeling cared for ...  

Kim: It's pretty high up there.  

Brother Orion: Yeah. Could it be feeling cared for? 

Kim: Kind of, yeah.  

Brother Orion: Kind of, yeah.  

Kim: But it's also, I guess, no, no, it's more like respect 
is just very important to me.  

Brother Orion: Very important, yeah.  

Kim: Laughing 

Brother Orion: Well, let me ask you a question. Let, 
can you remember a time when you felt really, really 
cared for? 

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: Was it because you felt respected? 

Kim: No.  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kim: Laughing 

Ross: My guess is if someone didn't respect her, they 
wouldn't even get close enough to get a chance to 
show that ...  

Kim: That's very true.  

Brother Orion: That's what I'm trying to say. That's 
what I'm trying to say. I'm, what I'm trying to say is in 
order for you to feel cared for you need to feel 
respected.  

Kim: No. In order for me to let someone close enough 
for me to care about them, they'd better respect me.  

Ross: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Now we're talking about caring 
about other people rather than ...  

background image

 

219

Kim: Respect is this.  

Brother Orion: feeling _____ yourself.  

Kim: They'd better respect me. If someone doesn't 
think I'm smart, someone doesn't respect my opinions, 
they're out of there.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Ross: Oh, man.  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kim: As a friend ...  

Brother Orion: Okay, well, I'm going to respect 

Kim: ... or a lover ...  

Brother Orion: ... your opinions.  

Kim: ... or anything, that's it.  

Brother Orion: Laughing 

Kim: I, I don't let people near me who don't, because 
that's, it is disrespectful and it doesn't show any, any, 
it doesn't show any care for me or any respect.  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kim: Respect, though, is the thing.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Kim: That's it.  

Brother Orion: Well, let me, let me put it this way. I 
think, I mean, you have thought a lot about, about 
values. Maybe not directly, but in certain ways you 
have thought about it a lot.  

Kim: Well, I have.  

Brother Orion: You've realized ...  

Kim: But it's been a while.  

Brother Orion: ... that respect is a real important one to 
you. A lot of people that you do this to will give you 
lower values. Feeling good, or something like that. Or, 
or being comfortable. Well, when you ask them, 
"What's important to you about being comfortable?" 
"Oh, it allows me to feel loved.” You can get higher 
values. But a lot of times, you know, in the original 
structure of this, the structure in the workbook, is you 
go across, laterally. You go for values ...  

Kim: Okay.  

Brother Orion: ... that are at the same level. Respect.  

Kim: Well closeness is also important ...  

Brother Orion: Closeness.  

Kim: Being close.  

Brother Orion: Okay. If I were to ask you ...  

Kim: Feeling closeness, ...  

Brother Orion: what else is important to you,  

Kim: ... being close to someone.  

Brother Orion: you'd tell me of feeling close to 
someone.  

Kim: Uh huh, yeah.  

Brother Orion: And what has to happen in order for 
you to feel close to someone? 

Kim: There has to be physical affection.  

Brother Orion: Physical affection. Yeah, yeah. And 
you're not just referring to, well, I want to know ...  

Kim: Not just sex. Brother Orion: Obviously. Not your 
sexuality, maybe sensual touch, but also ...  

Kim: Just touch.  

Brother Orion: ... reassuring touch.  

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: Yeah, touch.  

Kim: Touch.  

Brother Orion: And you're a massage therapist as 
well.  

Kim: Yes, I'm a massage therapist.  

Brother Orion: And that, that might connect to that. 
Yeah, yeah. I know how that feels to, to really ...  

Kim: It's very reassuring to be, you know, that they 
care about you, to be touched. It's very reassuring.  

Brother Orion: I agree.  

Ross: Ile word reassuring.  

Brother Orion: I just reached over and touched her.  

Ross: Listen to this. We've got respect, we've got 
closeness, we've got reassurance, we've got being 
cared for.  

Kim: Reassurance is quickly dropping, but of course, 
as you guys know, I date an NLPer, so everything 
changes all the time.  

Brother Orion: Right.  

Brother Orion & Audience: Laughter 

Kim: That, that makes it a little different.  

Brother Orion: Cool, cool. Well, well, how do you, you

know, how many, how do you, I want to get the 
negative rule here, too, so how do you know that, that 
someone, that you can't, that you're with the kind of 
person you don't feel that closeness with? What must 
never happen for you to have closeness? 

Kim: What must never happen? Brother Orion: Uh 
huh.  

Kim: I can't think of something that can never happen 
cause ...  

Brother Orion: Well, well if somebody went for a long 
time without ever touching you for some reason.  

Kim: Oh, you mean, well, well, yeah, I wouldn't feel 
close to them if they didn't touch me ever.  

Brother Orion: Yeah, absolutely.  

Kim: But there are periods where they can go through 
that but it comes and goes, the closeness comes and 
goes sometimes in a relationship.  

Ross: Yeah, ...  

Brother Orion: Cool.  

Ross: _____ . You'll know, physical affection is very 
important to her. You will, we're not dramatically 
involved, but we're still very huggie.  

Brother Orion: Right. Yeah.  

Kim: Physical affection is very important to me, yeah.  

Ross: _____ .  

Brother Orion: Absolutely.  

Ross: _____ get disgusted by it.  

Brother Orion: Absolutely. Now it's interesting 
because ...  

Audience: Laughter 

?: Absolutely right.  

Kim: Do you want me to start giving you lower values 
so you can elicit higher ones? 

Brother Orion: No, no, no. This is what I wanted. This 
is absolutely what I wanted.  

Kim: Okay.  

Brother Orion: I, I have three of your highest values 
by asking what's important to you about a 
relationship, okay? That's the first question. ”What's 
important to you about a relationship?" 

Ross: What's important to you in a relationship? 

Brother Orion: "What's important to you in a 

relationship?" "What's important to you in a 
relationship? How do you know when you have it? 
What must never happen?" Right? And then I can 
either ask, "What else is important to you about, in a 
relationship?" Or I can ask you, "What's important to 
you about that?" to get a h igher value. So I've gotten 
three values from you.  

Kim: He had a question.  

Brother Orion: Okay, I'm going, I'm going to answer 
them ...  

Kim: You're gong to answer them later? Okay.  

Brother Orion: ... after I finish this, this particular 
pattern because I do want to move through this. So I, 
we've got three very important values here to you. 
And, and I, I imagine that when you think about the 
ideal relationship, the kind of person that you really 
want to enjoy that kind of closeness with ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: ... and feel that kind of touch, that 
physical touch that let's you just know that, you 
know, you can feel close with someone, it's cause ...  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: ... they respect you. It's because they 
respect not just, you know, the physical contact but 
also that you have contributions to make, that you 
have opinions to give, skills to share.  

Kim: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: Abilities, you know, and it's what 
allows you to really, you know, realize that someone 
is considerate of you. That even, you know, even 
when you have that, when they have that closeness 
and that touch and also when you're away from them, 
that they're still considerate enough to, to keep in 
touch with you. Right? Even if they can't touch you, 
they'll keep in touch with you. And they'll be 
considerate of ...  

Kim: Think about me.  

Brother Orion: ... the way you feel.  

Kim: Yeah.  

Brother Orion: And they'll think about you. And when 
you think about the ideal relationship and how much, 
you know, how much closer you feel to someone 
when you experience all those values, can you feel 
that closeness as something you really want to 
experience? 

Kim: Now, does that feel right to you?

221

Brother Orion: Yes, it does.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: So, so ...  

Kim: yeah.  

Brother Orion: What I, what I, if any of you, if any of 
you didn't see that, I, I, I went through, I listed the 
values, I, her eyes were big and wide, and, and I 
reached over and anchored it and "feel that" is an 
ambiguity. Can you feel that? And it was, it was great. 
I was working on a number of different levels cause 
she loves the closeness, she loves the touching, and 
because I was anchoring it and I was also, you know, 
basically, putting, putting it all together and linking it 
tome. Okay? 

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Ross: ... solicitation here and you'll learn it all. Okay? 

Kim: Yes.  

Ross: And we're going to have fun, there's going to 
be no tears, it's all going to be good stuff, okay? 

Kim: I'm in a good mood today.  

Ross: Good, I'm glad. She was kind of, had some fun 
chemicals that her body had produced and I wanted 
to inject myself 

?: Could you move forward just a little bit so she 
could turn the chair just a little _____ .  

 Ross: No. Sure, actually, that's not a bad suggestion 
actually. All right. What we're going to do is, we're 
going to continue to learn here together and I'm going 
to show you the questions. By the way, this is word 
for word in your workbooks. The point here is not to 
try and memorize but see It in action. So put your 
notes down cause you have it word for word. Amy, I 
mean Kathleen, Kathleen. We're working with Brother 
Kathleen. We met at a party, we're talking, we feel a 
rapport, you like me, I'm a bright guy, we're just 
having fun, all right? I'd say something like, "You 
know, I was reading the mo st interesting book on 
relationships. It was talking about how so many 
people just charge right into one without ever really 
pausing to consider what it is that would really please 
them, what it is they really want. Cause I think there's 
a difference between what people are just to on the 
one hand and what it is they really want on the other. 
So, it just had some interesting questions in there 
about if you ask yourself these questions, it'll help 

you really find a better relationship and understand 
the pers on you're with, so you're probably not the 
kind of person who'd be interested in hearing what 
these questions are. But, you know, well, I hope you'll 
indulge me anyway cause I'd really like to talk to 
someone about this. It really excited me. So, I'm just 
curious. If I were to start, the question they said to 
ask is, to start off asking, what's important to you in a 
relationship? So if I were to say to you ...” Hear the 
weasel phrase? "What's important to you in a 
relationship? What would you say?" 

Kathleen: Urn, friendship.  

Ross: Friendship. Wow, yeah. Now the thing is I have 
no idea what she means by that.  

Kathleen: That's pretty broad.  

Ross: It's very broad, so I'm going to start narrowing 
it and I'm going to go, "Well, well, let me ask you 
something.” That's so broad then instead of saying, 
"How do you know when you have friendship?" I'll 
say, "Well, well, " what I will say, "What do you 
mean? How do you know when, when you're 
experiencing friendship with someone? What has to 
happen in order for you to know you have friendship 
with someone?" 

Kathleen: There's a sense of trust there.  

Ross: A sense of trust. Okay. Now I've heard the real 
one. So I said to her, "How do you know when you 
have, what has to happen for you to know when you 
have friendship with someone?" She said, "There's a 
sense of trust.” Okay? And I, my belief is that trust is 
a really powerful one. So I'm going to run with that. I'll 
go, "Trust. You know, I agree with you. And, and I'll 
just share with you that if I don't trust someone, 
there's nothing I can have with them; friendship, 
relationship, anything. It just, maybe they get to the 
level of acquaintance and that's it. You know what I 
mean? So, I'm just curious. For me, to know that I 
have trust with someone is they keep my secrets, they 
don't reveal what I tell them not to, and they do what 
they say they're going to do. I'm just curious. What 
has to happen, what has to happen, what to has to 
happen ...” I'm finding out her rule now. Her value is 
trust, now the rule is going to tell me what behavior 
she needs to see and what behavior she must never 
see. ”What has to happen in order for you to know 
you have trust with someone?" 

Kathleen: I'd probably agree with your second point. 
They have to keep their word.  

Ross: "Keep their word. Now I'm curious. Why I 
asking this, I'm really getting curious. When you say 

background image

 

222

keep their word, do you mean all the time, 100 percent 
of the time?" 

Kathleen: Urn, it depends on how important the 
situation is that can, they can probably vary and be 
somewhat flexible.  

Ross: "Hmmm. But it is important that people keep 
their word and I agree with you. Cause otherwise, 
what's the point? I mean, you might as well be by 
yourself if people aren't going to do, follow through. 
Don't you think?" 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Ross: "I mean, you may as well be all on your own. So 
there's no point unless they do keep their word and I 
agree with you. Well, that's real good. Let me ask you 
something else. I'll share with you. I'm just sharing, 
one of the things that's important to me in a 
relationship is mutual fun, really enjoying the person's 
company.” I'm just trying to prime the pump a little bit 
here. ”So I'm curious, cause they said in this book I 
read that you want to find at least three or four what 
they call values, and so far I know that friendship and 
trust are important to you. And I agree. What else is 
important to you in a relationship?" 

Kathleen: Um, that they lead an active life.  

Ross: "That they lead an active life.” Now that really 
is not a value in a relationship. She's describing 
something, a quality about the person.  

Now I want to chunk up a little bit, find out what that 
does for her. Okay, so I'll say, "Well, having an active 
life, when you're with someone who has an active life, 
what does that allow you to experience?" 

Kathleen: I think like a fulfillment because you can 
experience a lot of new things with them ...  

Ross: "Ah, so it allows you to experience new things 
with them?" 

Kathleen: Yeah.  

Ross: "When you experience new things with people, 
what does that allo w you to, what's, what emotion 
does that allow you to feel, what does it allow you to 
have when you experience new things with people? If 
you could put ...”  

Kathleen: Like adventure and fun.  

Ross: "Adventure and fun.” So now we have another 
value. The value is, twin value, it's adventure and fun. 
So she started out by saying, "It's important to be 
with someone who has an active lifestyle.” That 
doesn't tell me what the value is. It just tells me what 

the person is doing, it doesn't tell me whether that 
does for her. Okay? It's like saying sandwich instead 
of nutrition. Sandwich is the means, the value is 
nutrition. Okay? "So what were you saying? What 
was it? Fun and, fun and what? Adventure?" 

Kathleen: Yeah.  

Ross: "I've got to tell you. You know, I agree with you 
because, otherwise I could watch Ren and Stimpy all 
day, you know?" 

Kathleen & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "And eat my cheesy poofs.” Okay? "Well, well, 
you know, this book, it's kind of a fruity book. I don't 
know if I believe it or not. We probably shouldn't talk 
about this. You're not interested are you?" 

Kathleen: Yeah, I'm interested.  

Ross: "Yeah, I'm interested. Well, this book was 
saying if you really want to understand someone, get 
four of these values. Okay? So, besides trust and, and 
friendship and fun and adventure, ...” Well fulfillment 
was really her stumbling way of trying to say fun and 
adventure. ”What, what else is important to you in a 
relationship?" 

Kathleen: Um ...  

Ross: I had to, by the way, did you have any of the 
passion fruit punch? 

Kathleen: Oh, ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Kathleen: Gee, I don't know. _____ passion.  

Ross: Oh ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: No, is it important to you? 

Kathleen: Oh yes.  

Ross: "Oh yes. Umm. So, passion ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

?: Is it a psychic exp erience _____ .  

Ross: "Passion is important to you.” By the way, I 
have an anchor I've set on, on Kathleen all weekend. 
Whenever I talked about something sexual or 
something like that, I'd go _____ .  

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: Does the anchor work? 

Kathleen: Well, yeah. I mean it reminds me of that.

223

Ross: Oh yeah. I know.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Everyone's going to be walking up going 
_____ .  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: It's going to be a roomful of fucking gophers. 
For those of you a home, the anchor is  biting my lip 
with my upper teeth. Now we got a bunch of gophers. 
Some of you are going to try and reverse it and go 
_____ .  

Kathleen & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Well, so passion's important to you. Well let 
me ask you a question. What has to happen in o rder 
for you to experience passion, Kathleen?" Hear the 
command? 

Kathleen: Well ...  

Ross: I'm going to turn on the projector. No. Well, 
look where she looks. Well ...  

Kathleen: I mean, there's one obvious answer.  

Ross: Is there ...  

Kathleen: Which would be like sex, but ...  

Ross: "Sex.” 

?: I like sex.  

Ross: "You like sex.” 

Audience: Laughter.  

Ross: She just said she likes sex.  

Kathleen: But it doesn't just have to be sex. It could, it 
could be something like just if they have emotions 
and they're not afraid to express them.  

Ross: "Okay. So someone, I'm willing to bet that 
someone's who's expressive in all ways allows you to 
experience passion.” 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Ross: "So being with someone who's expressive 
allows her to experience passion. You know, you've 
told me so much about yourself, I must say that in 
order for me to experience passion, it has to do with 
rubber suits.” 

Audience: Laughter Ross: "No, I think passion is a 
great thing. l agree with you. I mean, wow. So, so, let 
me ask you a question now. So, is there, I'm just 
curious, this is my own way to clarify cause I don't 
know. Is there a difference between friendship and 

trust?" 

Kathleen: Yeah.  

Ross: "Well, can you tell me what that difference is? 
Cause I'm curious. I'm not playing with you guys, I 
don't know what she means, if there is a difference.” 

Kathleen: There is something, I trying to figure out 
how to put it, express it. Friendship is like a type of 
relationship I guess. And trust is like more of a quality 
...  

Ross: Okay. So I would say her first ...  

Kathleen: It's like a, more of a _____ .  

Ross: Her first answer is really not a value in a 
relationship. She's talking about a certain kind of 
relationship. So I'd strike that one off. Yeah, I'd strike 
off friendship. ”So let me ask you a question. In 
addition to trust, fun and adventure and passion, 
what else is important to you in a relationship? By the 
way, it's fun that we're mutually learning together 
tonight, isn't it?" 

Kathleen: Yeah, and I keep wanting to say qualities 
about p eople.  

Ross: Well go ahead and say the quality and I'll help 
you chunk up. Go, what's ...  

Kathleen: Well, the one I've said before like, like that 
they're intelligent.  

Ross: "Intelligent. Okay. When you're with, " so she's 
not getting me, do you understand the distinction 
between a quality in a person and a value in a 
relationship? A quality would be like intelligent, 
daring, handsome, sexy, fun, okay? And, and the 
value is what being with someone like that allows her 
to experience inside. So when you're with someone 
who's intelligent, what does it allow you to 
experience? 

Kathleen: Intellectual stimulation.  

Ross: "Intellectual stimulation.” 

Audience: Laughter Ross: "Intellectual stimulation. 
Ah hah.” 

Audience: It's a value? 

Ross: For her it is, yeah. Stimulation, intellectual 
stimulation, wow. There's a spot in the brain called the 
bee spot.  

Audience: laughter 

Ross: It's up there, huh? You touched it. ”What 
would it be like if every time you touched that spot 

background image

 

224

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Now, she knows what I'm doing but it's still 
working. ”Well, I think that's good. You know, now 
this book said something really fruity. I mean, I don't 
believe it myself, but I just had to share it with you. 
This book said that people actually put these values 
in a certain and to find out this book said you should 
ask, " what am I doing there? 

Audience: Comments from audience 

Ross: "This book said you should ask, of those 
values, of trust, fun and adventure, passion, and 
intellectual stimulation, which one must you 
absolutely have to have, which is the most important, 
which one would you absolutely not be able to do 
without in a relationship of all of those?" 

Kathleen: Passion.  

Ross: "Passion. Oh yeah.” Watch out for these 
Kansas girls. Okay. ”Passion. So, of fun and 
adventure, trust and intellectual stimulation, which 
one of those would you have to have? Fun and 
adventure, trust, intellectual stimulation.” 

Kathleen: Probably fun and adventure.  

Ross: "Fun and adventure. Ummm.” We're learning a 
lot about her values. Okay. ”Of trust and intellectual 
stimulation ...”  

Kathleen: Trust.  

Ross: "Trust.” Boy, she shut me down fast there. ”So 
now this book said something really interesting. This 
book said if you name those four values all in a row, 
people go into a massive pleasure state. I don't 
believe it myself But according to the book, if I were 
to say to you, you know, maybe what you're really 
looking for, what would really fulfill you is a special 
relationship. A relationship based on passion, fun 
and adventure, trust and intellectual stimulation. Can 
you feel that?" 

Kathleen & Audience: Laughter 

Ross: "Would it be something you'd like to create an 
opening for?" 

Kathleen: Oh yeah.  

Ross: "And the interesting thing about creating 
openings for things, openings to move in completely  
new directions, is it's not enough ...” Now, okay. Do 
you get the point? 

Audience: Uh huh 

Ross: Now, Amy's told us a lot about yourself, herself 

One of the things I can generally say about Amy is ...  

Audience: Kathleen.  

Ross: Kathleen, Kathleen. We can edit out her name. 
Okay. Kathleen has told us a lot about herself. One of 
the things that Kathleen has told, I'm sorry, you're not 
my servant, I'll do it myself One of the things that 
Kathleen has told us about herself is Kathleen does 
not want to be bored. Kathleen really seeks adventure 
and excitement and if you bore her, boy, you're going 
to be out of there right fast. Uh huh, uh huh. Right? 

?: She will be out of there.  

Ross: She will be out of there right fast.  

Kathleen: I will run screaming.  

Ross: "You will run screaming.” 

?: Like a fucking _____ , out the door.  

Ross: Now let me, let me deal with something else 
with you. ”I know it's also very important to you in 
your strategy for looking for someone that you find 
someone who's really compatible right away. But the 
challenge with that is compatible people may not be 
terribly exciting. Maybe the most exciting thing is to 
meet someone who's on your level and yet different 
enough to lead you into new ways of excitement. So 
maybe the process you've been using to look for that 
person, the sort for them, is doing the very thing that 
would stop you from finding someone who would 
fulfill you much greater. So maybe the thing to think 
about is to change your process and that's easy.” So, 
she's done a great job. Give her a big hand.  

Audience: Applause.

Brother Orion: ... any of the, you know, other patterns  

 _____ you know, when I was doing like, like when 
we were in Palo Alto, but at a, at, the first thing we did 
when we were out in the hall and I started talking to 
you and you hadn't seen this pattern yet. So it was 
the way, you knew a little bit about the patterns, 
instantaneous connection, but you hadn't seen this 
yet. So it was my way to get to know you better 
without, you know what I mean, doing something that 
you would have recognized. And passion, fun and 
adventure, trust and intellectual stimulation, cool, 
cool. And you're able to feel really comfortable in 
front of a group of people. That's nice, too. And what 
I want to talk about is when I did the instantaneous 

background image

 

225

connection pattern with Kim up here before, I was 
reading it out of the book. I have it memorized, but it's 
memorized a little bit differently. Same thing with the 
blamo pattern. And I'm not going to read it out of the 
book. It's in there. I think it's page 59 and you can 
read it word for word. It's almost the identical 
structure to the way I read, but I want to do it more 
natural, my own way. These patterns change, but I 
have memorized it word for word from an earlier 
version of it. So, the first thing you want to do is you 
want to create comfort and a sense of, you know, that 
you feel really comfortable, using fluff talk or 
whatever it is that allows you, for all your own 
reasons, to feel comfortable. And then the next thing 
that you want to do is you want talk about an 
instantaneous connection. And one of the things that 
you do here, you can do here, you can, the whole 
pattern of the blamo bring together a lot about of 
what we've been talking about and it also moves from 
being general to being specific and personal. ”So, you 
know, I was talking to a friend of mine and she was 
reading an article in PLAYBOY ...” Okay, maybe it 
wasn't PLAYBOY.” She was reading an article in some 
woman's magazine talking about the way that people 
feel incredible connections. The way that with some 
people, you know, just don't connect, but with other 
people you feel almost like you were meant to know 
them. Like if it's destiny. But some people say that it's 
almost like there's a cord of light there, like you feel an 
energy, the warmth, a cord of blue light, or it's almost 
as if you just feel like as you talk to this person and 
feel so comfortable, like you're meant to be together, 
you can even imagine a time in the future, say months 
from now, still feeling that wonderful sense of 
connection that you deserve to feel it, and looking 
back on this moment as having been the start of it. 
Now, with me, I think being able to feel that kind of a 
connection is such an incredible thing to experience 
and it makes me think that, you know, as my friend 
was telling me, she thinks things happen in a certain 
way in your mind.” Now I'm going to talk a little bit 
about the structure of experience. ”You know, they 
don't just happen like all of a sudden, you know? 
Connection is there. You actually go through the 
process, you feel like you're, you know, beginning to 
get that, to know this person better, beginning to feel 
that powerful connection, see that cord of light, 
Things in your mind happen in a certain way. Like, for 
example, I was, I was reading an article in a 
psychology magazine about the way that certain 
things in our environment trigger off certain states of 
mind. And it's interesting how people perceive things 
in different ways. Like, do you like to ride roller 
coas ters?" 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: "Uh huh. You do like roller coasters. I 
went, I went and rode the most amazing roller coaster 
last week and when I remember it in my mind, I 
remember it in a certain way. Well let me show you 
how this works. Can you remember a time when you 
rode a, a really good roller coaster?" 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: "Okay, now, I don't know whether you 
imagine easier, more easily with your eyes open or 
your eyes closed.” 

Kathleen: Umm.  

Brother Orion: "Closed.” 

Kathleen: Okay. Brother Orion: That's better.  

Audience: laughter 

Kathleen: _____ but _____ .  

Brother Orion: "Close your eyes.” 

Ross: I'll hold this for her so she doesn't ...  

Brother Orion: I'll hold it for her, it's okay.  

Ross: Okay.  

Brother Orion: Okay, thanks. ”Okay, close your eyes.” 

Kathleen: Uh huh 

Brother Orion: "Forget everything, about all of that, 
and what I want you to do for a moment is I want you 
to see yourself, you know how on roller coasters 
these days there's a camera up there that takes a 
picture of you as you go on the ride?" 

Kathleen: Uh huh 

Brother Orion: "And you can look at the picture 
afterwards. I want you to see yourself as if you're 
sitting in that camera, seeing that Brother Kathleen, 
on that roller coaster riding it. Notice how she takes 
the ride for a little while. Now open your eyes and 
look at me. Okay? And this time I want you to close 
your eyes. But this time step into that person there on 
that roller coaster to begin feel that long, slow ascent 
to get to the top and come screami ng down. See what 
you saw, hear what you heard and feel how it feels. 
That's right. Open your eyes and look at me.” And 
link all those wonderful feelings to me. Which is what 
when you say open your eyes and look at me, it does.  

Ross: You wouldn't say that.  

Audience: Do you say that? 

?: No.

226

Ross: He wouldn't actually ...  

Brother Orion: I wouldn't say and link all those 
feelings to me, no.  

Audience: Laughter Brother Orion: But I could. It's 
been done. ”What I want to ask you now, cause I 
think it's interesting how people experience things in 
different ways.” Ah, no, that's okay. I was going to 
hold it, but, or I was going to give it back to her, but 
I'm going to have you close your eyes again in a 
minute to show you something else. ”What's 
interesting to me is you experience it in two different 
ways. And what, what I'm curious about is when you 
think about it, which one was more real for you, the 
first one or the second one? Which one allowed you 
to actually feel the feelings?" 

Kathleen: Umm, when I was actually on ...  

Brother Orion: "When you were actually on the roller 
coaster. Right. Cause you're actually in the experience 
now. I want to show something really cool about the 
way the mind works. It's something called anchoring. 
Something that allows you to reexperience a feeling. 
So what I want you to do is I want you to remember a 
time when you felt exquisite pleasure in your body, 
now don't worry, you don't have to tell me what it was 
at that time, right there, oh yeah. Close your eyes ...”  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: "Close your eyes.” Don't worry. None 
of these guys know, oh my god. Only Ross and I can 
see the images that she's seeing. Oh man. I'm just 
kidding. ”Close your eyes.” It's not embarrassing 
cause nobody else knows what you're thinking.  

Kathleen: Now they do.  

Brother Orion: No they don't.  

Ross: _____ projector.  

Brother Orion: _____ beautiful sunset. ”Close your 
eyes and remember what you really want to remember 
to feel wonderful, see what you saw, hear what you 
heard, ooo, all right, take a moment in that time, 
remember only the good parts, feel what you felt, see 
what you saw, hear what you heard, and once it 
reaches it's peak, just wiggle that thought just a little 
bit toward me now.” 

Kathleen: I'm giggling too much.  

Brother Orion: Okay. Wait, just a minute. I get this 
sometimes from people. Open your eyes. What I want 
you to notice is that, the reason you're giggling is 
because you have your giggle dial turned up a little 
too high.  

Kathleen: Laughing 

Brother Orion: This happens a lot when you massage 
people who are a little ticklish, a little sensitive. What 
I want you to do is you see that dial there? Is it on the 
left or the right side? On the left. Okay. Go ahead and 
put your finger on the tickle, on the giggle dial, and 
turn it down. And now you see right next that the 
relaxed and comfortable dial? 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: Turn that one up only as slowly as you 
feel more relaxed and comfortable, keeping your eyes 
closed. Okay? Now, that's right. Go back to that 
experience of exquisite pleasure; see what you saw, 
hear what you heard, and feel how it felt. And as you 
do that, once it reaches its peak, just lift your thumb 
just a little bit to let me know you feel that now. That's 
right. Take all the time you like. The next  few seconds 
to feel those feelings building into a peak. Great. 
Great. And just once they reach the peak lift that 
thumb just a little bit. Great. Okay. Now, open your 
eyes and look at me. Now, you reached a couple of 
peaks in there.  

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I was watching that movie.  

Brother Orion: So I was, I was anchoring them as I 
went. I was anchoring them as I went. Now put your, 
now, put your mind back to that place. Close your 
eyes and really see what you saw, hear what you 
heard, and, ooo, feel how it felt and maybe even smell 
and taste those smells, that's right, as you feel those 
feelings building, only once they reach their peak lift 
that thumb right there to let me know. Great. Hold on 
to those feelings as you open your eyes and look at 
me. All right. Now the third time is the magic time. So 
close your eyes and allow yourself to enjoy that 
experience so deeply. Notice how every single inch of 
your skin feels. Notice every sound, whisper, sigh, 
whatever sound you hear, every feeling, and all the 
things you're seeing, the colors. And as it begins to 
reach it peak and only once it really begins to reach 
its peak, lift up that thumb to let me know. That's 
right. Great. Now hold on to those feelings and really 
enjoy them. Open your eyes and look at me. Now it's 
so interesting how a certain feeling can happen in a 
certain way. But your mind knows something else. 
Your mind knows how to even intensify things. Close 
your eyes for a moment. If that feels great and now 
I've got my finger on her, just arbitrarily on her, in her 
elbow, inside of her elbow. And now I'm going to 
allow those feelings to intensify, cause you would like 
to feel them intensify, wouldn't you? Okay? Now if 

background image

 

227

that feels great, you know, when you begin to 
intensify it, it feels even better. That's right. Ummm. 
And I'm moving my hand up her arm; a slight anchor 
it's called. So if that feels great, you could feel even 
better. Open your eyes and look at me. What's 
amazing is sometimes you can just be talking to 
someone in a, you know, just having a conversation 
about some fascinating thoughts. And for whatever 
mysterious reason, you just start to feel great and 
even better, don't you? And you could even cycle 
those feelings back inside yourself to feel great and 
even better; great and even better. And I'm firing off 
the anchor again and again and again and  

background image

 

228

it's intensifying each time. It feels pretty good, don't 
you? 

Kathleen: Uh huh.  

Brother Orion: Yeah, uh huh. Okay. No, it's not done 
yet, of course. The blamo pattern has even more 
cause I, we're going to let them up now, not yet, okay.  

Kathleen: No.  

Brother Orion: This is where it gets interesting.  

Ross: We're going to huff and puff and blow their 
house down.  

Audience: Comment from audience 

Brother Orion: This is, it gets interesting because this 
is where, where I, I get into some things that I think 
are really fascinating about the way the, your mind 
works, the way that a lot of people look at and think 
about things. And that is that people need a way to 
sort out their subjective experience, to see images in a 
certain way in your mind. For example, if you, imagine 
that your mind was a big blank movie screen. Right? 
And you were to think of an experience that you had, 
right, where you felt just somebody you really, really 
liked. And as you think about that person, if you were 
to take and point with your finger to where see, 
Missy, that person's picture, where might you point 
right now? Okay. You knew right where it's at. Right 
there. And now I'm going, she's pointing and I'm 
going to put my hand right where she sees it. Right 
there? And I'm going to check. I've got it in the right 
place? Treat the, oh thank you, see, she corrected me. 
Treat the picture that it, like it's real. A lot of women 
will say, "What do you mean?" or "I don't 
understand.” Well, if you, if you could see an image 
or if your mind was a big movie screen or if there was 
an image, you suppose, where might it be? So is it 
right here? Someone you really like? Okay. Now, I'm 
going to leave that right there. But I want you to think 
about somebody, either somebody you really don't 
like or somebody you just don't care about. Someone 
who's no big deal. Okay. And as you seem to, as you 
seem to see an image of that person, where might you 
point to that picture right at now. Ooo, it's behind 
you.  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: It's behind you. You know what's 
interesting ...  

Audience: Laughter 

Brother Orion: _____ , no, no, no, it's not you.  

Kathleen: It's not you.  

Brother Orion: It's not you. But you know what it is.  

Ross: I don't care.  

Brother Orion: You know what it is? Amy took her, 
took her hands, ...  

Ross: _____ .  

Brother Orion: Amy took her hand ...  

Ross: Kathleen ...  

Brother Orion: Sorry, Brother Kathleen, Brother 
Kathleen took her thumb and pointed behind her with 
her thumb with her hand curled. Does this look like 
anything you've seen before? 

Audience: Yes. Comments from audience Brother 
Orion: Now what do you, what ...  

Ross: Laughing 

Brother Orion: Say it, say it. Go ahead.  

Kathleen: Oh god. YOU'RE OUT OF HERE 

Brother Orion: So you don't do it like that. You don't 
say you're out of here like that? 

Kathleen: No, I ...  

Brother Orion: Okay.  

Kathleen: ... pump it, pump it.  

Brother Orion: Oh you pump it forward. So you don't 
say you're out of it like behind you. Okay. But do put 
people that you, that you don't care about behind 
you. Right? Now if would've just take and just for no 
reason whatsoever, just want to move that person's 
picture, just try in vain to move that person's picture 
from that place of someone you don't like into the 
person you really like, just try in vain. Yeah. It's like it 
doesn't, yeah, it, you're shaking your head no. It, it 
doesn't want to move. Your mind needs a way to sort 
out images in your mind. Isn't that interesting how 
sometimes, and now I'm going to stand in front of her 
picture if I can of someone she really likes, and you 
know, use that space in the future.  

Ross: _____ bite your lip.  

Audience: Laughter  

Brother Orion: No, it's you. It's your lip. It's your lip.  

Ross: Bite my lip? 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: Don't follow the suggestions.

Brother Orion: What I want you to do though is, I, is, 
what I'm curious about is, is the way that people sort 
things out in their mind is so fascinating. If you were 
to, for example, have you ever fallen in love? 

Kathleen: Uh huh 

Brother Orion: Uh huh. Yeah. Felt pretty good. If you 
were to, as you think about falling in love, if you were 
to point to where you see him, to see a picture of 
falling in love, where might you point right now? Ooo, 
right in front of you. Right in front of you and a little 
up. Is this the right place? Please. Oh, notice how she 
corrected me. Okay. And you know what is so 
interesting about the way that people make images in 
your mind, for example, you know, think about the 
way that people feel connections, the way that you 
feel great and even better, and fire off _____ the 
again. If you were to, for example, think, think about 
my voice and hear my voice coming from that space 
of falling in love, and maybe even feel a certain 
warmth there, color, as you allow it to penetrate your 
thoughts and move and swirl and feeling better and 
better. What's amazing that I think is the way that a 
person can allow yourself, give yourself permission, 
to feel those wonderful feelings flooding inside your 
mind, to let those feelings come from that place of 
falling in love, penetrate your thoughts and feel you 
up and they spread down through every part of you. 
And now I'm going to intensify it using quotes _____ 
separating. Now, it's so interesting how sometimes 
those feelings can cause a person to act in a certain 
way. I mean, I was sitting in a bar once, went out, and 
this woman next to me was just sitting there having a 
drink and this guy came up to her and he'd been 
looking at her, and he just said, "If I were to say to 
you, can you imagine what it would feel like if I were 
going down on you ...”  

Ross: Uh, uh, uh, uh. We're, let's not, let's not go 
there.  

Brother Orion: Well, I won't say it to her, I'll say it to ...  

Ross: Let's not say it to her.  

Brother Orion: I'll say it to the lights up, up there. ”If 
you'd imagine how it would feel if I were going down 
on you for hours, exactly the way you like, and you 
were so hot and so turned on, that you were begging 
to have it, begging to really get it the way you've 
always wanted it. Wow. I mean ...”  

Ross: _____ muffins.  

Brother Orion: Laughing 

Kathleen: _____ muffins.  

Brother Orion: "I mean, can you imagine that? Did, 
did, you know, did she really, did he really expect her 
to think about that all night long? And you know 
what was so interesting? He actually, she actually 
played along with it. She turned around and she said, 
'You know that feeling you get right before you have 
an orgasm and you feel those feelings pulsing and 
swirling through every inch of your body? God, I 
didn't know how much better she thought she was 
making him feel but it was just so interesting.” 

Audience: Laughter 

Ross: I think you're going beyond the blamo, though, 
_____ and quotes. So you've done a great job.  

Brother Orion: No, no. Blamo's, blamo in the book 
includes the quotes at the end. And then you just 
wait for them to pounce or you pounce on them.  

Ross: Yeah. Let's give them both a huge hand.  

Audience: Applause.

Tape 10 – Side 2 

 

Yates: Welcome to Side 20 of the Ross Jeffries Basic 
Speed Seduction Seminar 

 

Yates: This is the end of the Ross Jeffries Speed 
Seduction Seminar for those basic students. And at 
the end of this seminar what we did was we passed 
the microphone around, after giving a little bit of 
instruction, and we let any number of students who 
would like to speak tell about their experience in this 
seminar. And that is what follows on the next few 
minutes of this tape. So stand by.  

?: No.  

Ross: You don't need to say your name. You can if 
you want to, but you have 30 seconds _____ .  

Audience: One of the things I got was the ability to 
just walk up to any like really attractive woman and 
not, not just talk to her or g et her phone number, but 
then decide if I wanted her or not, like I had a choice, 
so I said, "Ah, I don't want this. Forget it.” 

?: That's great. Thank you.  

Mark: Anyone else? 

?: I have a great deal of experience with NLP and 
hypnosis, but almost all the trainings I've gone to has 
not taken the technology and applied so you can get 
results. With Ross, you'll always get results.  

Ross: Oh, I like that one. Anybody else? Yes.  

?: I've been studying Ross' material for several 
months now and it's literally made a change in my life 
in that I've got the attitude that a lot of brothers will 
have very soon. And it's also helped me in, in my 
personal life in non, non-female situations such as my 
business.  

Ross: What about this seminar? Tell me what this 
seminar _____ made a difference.  

?: Coming to this seminar, it helped me tie up some 
loose ends that I was having personal challenges with 
and I will be working on them to improve it even more, 
but it had, it has helped me.  

Ross: Okay. Somebody else. Yes, brother.  

?: Urn, I have had no prior materials that I have used 
with this program. So I came into it really fresh. I 
remember the moment I walked through the door I was 
thinking, "God, I am really feeling uncomfortable 

about this. This is probably going to be one of the 
most embarrassing things that I've ever had to do in 
my life. I can't believe I'm doing this.” And now, after 
this is over with, I'm thinking, "I can't believe that I 
wouldn't consider doing something like this.” This 
stuff is real and the, the work that was done here over 
the weekend is extremely incredible and, and this is 
coming from someone who's had no prior exposure to 
this stuff so I'm totally like I haven't been at all even 
told what to say or by any means, and it's been great. 
Thanks.  

?: I would like to add that I met Ross just about a 
couple of months ago. I got introduced to the 
materials and before that time, I had a completely 
different paradigm about women in general, just the 
whole thing. This has not only changed my 
perspective in giving me the tools and the confidence 
but it's given me a new way to understand them. And 
the seminar I thought, "Oh, you know, I'm going to go 
to the seminar. I'm going to meet a bunch of people 
that have, you know, tape on their glasses and they're 
going to be very strange and probably the best thing 
that's happened is I met a bunch of people, I have met 
some of the neatest people that I've ever met here and 
I've made some ...”  

Audience: Applause 

I've made some really amazing instant connections 
with people ...  

Audience: Laughter 

?: ... who, you know, I know that I'm going to have 
relationships for a long time and probably one of the 
most powerful things is I know that I'm going to have 
the support and I'm going to have community of 
people who think like me of really intelligent people 
that I can lean on and I can look to for support and 
encouragement in the future.  

Ross: That's more than 30 seconds. Ali, Willie, do you 
want say something? Go as _____ , and then as you.  

?: I would just like to say, is this on? No, I'm kidding. I 
would just like to say that Ross' class is changed my 
life and, well, I think you people can see the ways on 
the new every night.  

Audience: Laughter.  

?: It's been a wonderful experience for me and, hah, 
ow, the teeth, it hurts a little, so ...  

Audience: Laughter 

?: I just want to, I just want to close by saying that me 
and my dog Buddy have both been getting laid much

more often because of Ross, and I would just like to 
thank him very much. Let's hear it for young Ross. All 
right.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Now what did you think of it? Tell them why 
you came.  

?: I came, I'm writing a screenplay about speed 
seduction. I read the ROLLING STONE article and 
said, "I have to meet this guy.” I called my manager, 
had the meeting, we hit it off. Ross trusted me, we got 
along well. And just as I've been telling people the 
project and showing them the articles, people always 
say the same thing. ”Oh, that's bullshit. It can't work. 
It can't work, it's bullshit.” And I said, "Well, you 
know what? I think there's a movie here. I think it's the 
real deal, so I'm going to go check it out.” And it's 
been amazing. I'm glad to say that I came. I'm glad to 
say that I checked it out and I'm going to write a 
kick-ass movie about it cause it's the real deal.  

Ross: I told you, you didn't see what I did until you 
came to see it.  

?: Right. Now you can't see it by the articles. The 
articles, the marketing, in the articles is, is just a way 
to get your attention. Really, so much, so much more 
interesting stuff goes on here. It's been terrific. Thank 
you.  

Ross: You're welcome. Anybody else? 

Audience: Applause 

Brother 0rion: I want to say that Ross tricked me. I 
thought when I came into this material this is going to 
be some way, you know, just to get women to get 
horny around me. But it's done a lot more than that. 
It's helped me to transform the quality of my life and 
to help me learn how to transform the quality of other 
people's lives and to give gifts that I can, you know, 
not just to, not just to women who I meet to let them 
have these incredible experiences, these incredible 
states and learnings, but to give guys more tools. 
Even if I just talk to a friend about relationships and 
give them some more, you know, insight about them 
without actually, you know, directly talking about the 
material presented, you know, and especially when I'm 
in here teaching you guys. It's just the best thing, it 
feels so good to know that I'm sharing something 
that's made such a tremendous difference in my life 
and, and one thing that I thought was really 
fascinating that happened this week is when I talked, 
went out there and talked to Lisa and I told her, you 
know, I, I teach, I'm teaching seduction and hypnosis 
and I was able to tell her exactly what's happening, 

bring her in here. I mean, for me, that was just an 
epiphany to be, just, you know, that I could come that 
forward with someone and still have them just 
fascinated by me. It was amazing. Thanks a lot, Ross.  

Ross: Yes, you're welcome. The more playful you are, 
the mo re blatant you can be. Yes? 

?: I've come to several of Ross' seminars and I have to 
tell you that they really opened my mind and really 
changed my life in a lot of different ways and I think 
the people who have seen me over the last year have 
seen tremendous changes and I really appreciate the, 
the results I've received.  

Ross: Yes, definitely. You want ...  

?: Yeah, what? 

Ross: You already did one.  

?: _____ .  

Ross: No, no, you already did one.  

?: Looks good.  

Ross: You already did one.  

?: Okay, I'm very glad that I came to this seminar. My 
uncle told me about it. I wasn't sure.  

Ross: Who was your uncle? I'm just curious.  

?: Fred.  

Ross: Oh, I remember. Good guy.  

?: Right. And this seminar has made me think about 
things differently. Before I was concentrating on what 
I would say or what I wouldn't say, how I felt. Now I 
realize not to think about that and to pay attention to 
how the other person feels and watch their reactions. 
And not to hear a voice in my head. And I feel much 
better about that. And I feel that I'll be able to do a lot 
more things because of that.  

Ross: You will. You will.  

Kim: That's a good one.  

Ross: Bunny, you want to say something? No? 
Anybody else.  

?: Here Ross.  

?: Yes, Ross.  

?: This seminar marks a year since I was first exposed 
to Ross' ideas and instructions. And my social life has 
been transformed completely. I, I started off using the 
tools, in particular the jokes and the codes and people 
who thought I was just somebody who fit in with the, 
with the woodwork thought that I was a really 

background image

 

232

interesting guy. In addition to my social life also it's in 
other areas I'm much more open and I'm, I have so 
many possibilities in front of me. And I just want to 
thank Ross for that.  

Ross: You're welcome, _____ .  

Audience: Applause.  

?: Anybody else? 

Ross: Anybody else.  

?: He's already gone.  

?: _____ two years ago, okay, I got out of a divorce, 
okay? It was a pretty bad divorce and everything and 
it took me a long time to recover from it. Anyway, 
after I, I kind of dated for a long while and you went 
out on a Saturday night and you always were hoping 
to get lucky and find somebody, okay? A lot of the 
somebodies that you took home or that you found 
were people that you really wouldn't be satisfied with 
or that you, that you would never date now. Okay? 
Anyway, after getting Ross' course, I was able to 
communicate with women much, much better. Okay? 
And now the women that I talk to and that I have a 
relationship with are just no where near the caliber 
that I ever thought that I could. Oka y? Now I'm able 
to find somebody that is worthy, okay? Somebody 
that make something better out of me. Somebody 
who's worth being with, okay? That is what your 
course has meant for me. Okay? 

Ross: Very cool. Thank you. Very cool.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: "Before I came to Ross's course, my mother 
said that I should do something about my social and 
Ross, I want to say that thanks to you I have the 
courage to approach that blow-up doll that I've 
always dreamed of. Thank you, Ross Jeffries.” Yes 

?: Just a note to, to anybody that's contemplating 
coming to one of these seminars, sure, if you use 
these tools, you are going to succeed in your 
relationships with women. But one of the important 
things that this seminar taught me is the fact that now 
I know I can step outside the box and use my rules.  

Ross: I, that's great. You can step outside the box and 
use his own rules. Yes? Who's that? 

?: You wanted it? You wanted it? 

?: I'll take it.  

?: Yep.  

?: John.  

?: Over here.  

?: Ross' material gave me the choices and 
opportunities that I never used to have in every way. 
Coming to this seminar brought the technology to life, 
sort of like standing, the difference between standing 
on a beach and watching that sunset and looking at a 
crumpled up black and white photograph or running 
down on a football field scoring that touchdown and 
reading about it in the next day's newspaper. And, so 
if you want this to happen to you in the real world, 
then you need to take this opportunity and go to a 
seminar.  

 

BREAK IN TAPE 

 

Ross: We've now let you, we're going to wrap it 
because we've got to get out of this room. People 
want to watch the Bulls and the Bears. Go for it.  

?: There was a time in my life when I, when I'd get 
excited about something that I'd actually become 
physically ill as a result of it. Right across the street 
from where this seminar is, is a place where I've 
probably thrown up five different times in my life. 
Fortunately, I've, fortunately, I've overcome that, but 
at the beginning of this seminar I noticed myself 
slipping back into those old patterns, because I was 
so excited about the opportunities that I'd enjoy here. 
On the second day of the seminar, ...  

Ross: Like that character on South Park that throws 
up whenever ...  

?: Right. Kenny.  

Ross: Wendy. Wendy Kesteberger.  

?: Stan.  

Ross: Stan is the one who throws up, it's Wendy 
Kesteberger I'm talking about.  

?: Blahhhhh.  

Kim: Laughing 

?: _____ .  

?: But on the second day I volunteered to be a guinea 
pig up in front of the whole seminar and the, the 
techniques which were used on and with me and 
which I, I participated in made me so excited about the 
opportunities and the skills that I learned at this 
seminar that the illness that I felt coming on totally 
went away and now I'm just raring to go out there and 
get some.  

background image

 

233

?: _____ with you? 

Ross: Oh, wow. I don't even remember. Cool. I don't, 
cool. Good, good, good, good, good. Anybody else? 
Is that it? 

?: Here, I'll do it.  

Ross: You want to go? 

?-. Sure, I'll go.  

Ross: Okay, good. Social proof 

?: Okay. Before I came to Ross, when I got his tapes, I 
had some doubts about believing that this stuff 
would work. But coming to this seminar has, he 
proved to me that this stuff really does work and as a 
person that grew up, you know, struggling to find 
things, because I never got the best of anything, you 
know, I always got the worst stuff. So I always tried 
to get the best of everything I could and I feel that 
Ross, if anything in your life that you want to get, 
you have to go and meet Ross. He will definitely 
change your life.  

Audience: Applause.  

 

LONG SILENCE ON TAPE (FOLLOWING MAY BE A 
REPEAT OF PREVIOUS TAPE) 

 

Brother Orion: Laughing 

Ross: There's nowhere for _____ .  

?: And I said, "Great. Would you like some more?" 
And she said ...  

Ross & Audience: laughing 

?: "Sure.” And I said, "Okay.” 

Ross: Okay. Did you try it with anyone else.  

?: I didn't try that, but I did try something else I'd 
never done before.  

Ross: Oh, follow directions. But tell us what you did.  

?: The, the hostess who seated us, very attractive 
young lady and ...  

Ross: I've noticed that's often the case.  

?: Yes.  

Ross: The ugly ones are in the kitchen.  

Audience: laughter 

?: And I said, she seated us, and asked blah, blah, 
blah, blah. And I said, I put my hand to my forehead 

to be, you know, making a gesture, I said, "I know 
you.” 

Ross: Ah.  

?: "Have you lived around here for a while?" And I 
kept my hand on my forehead. And she said, "Yeah, a 
couple of years.” And I said, "I know where it is. I've 
been reading a book on angels and you're on the 
cover.” 

Ross: Laughing. Very good. And how did she 
respond? 

?: And she was, and I was, I was shaking, "My name's 
Paul.” And I held on to her hand for a good minute.  

Ross: Yeah.  

?: And she's very, very busy. It was, you know, 
Saturday night at TGI Friday.  

Ross: How did she respond when you said "You're on 
the cover"? Did she smile and laugh? 

?: She smiled, she glowed, ...  

Ross: Yeah.  

?: It was like she tilted her head and it was ...  

Ross: Now that's an example of the kind of thing 
where if you tell a guy that would work, he'd go, "No 
way.” But women respond to it. Excellent, very good.  

?: I never would've tried that.  

Ross: No, well good. Good. Give him a big hand. 
You're making good progress.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: The point of the exercise is, is to get you, 
number one, to get you moving so you can actually 
say something. And, by the way, this is another 
exercise where we, where we're forgetting about the 
content, we're giving you nonsense content so 
instead you can focus on the process. And the 
process is  to go up, get moving without hesitation, 
move, say something, and watch the response. And 
to train your attention to go somewhere other than 
inward into your own internal dialogue. And instead 
direct it outward and watch the response you're 
getting. Those of you who did not do the exercise are 
robbing yourselves of a very important skillset that 
you need to learn. Speed seduction is not just about 
knowing what words to say. It's also about noticing 
responses and paying attention.

?: _____ around the world and so far, so good, and 

better days ahead. Thanks.  

Audience: Applause.  

?: Dear Ross. My life before speed seduction with, 
with ...  

Ross: _____ . Try doing this. Instead of _____ , say 
what you think.  

?: All right.  

Ross: _____ .  

?: Sure. My life before speed seduction with chicks 
was pretty sad and pathetic. I would, every time I, I, I 
was very angry with women because they would 
always reject me and I thought that that was, they 
were just re, rejecting my approach. So now I would, it 
got to the point where I wouldn't even talk to them 
and I went out of my way to avoid them. Now, I know 
that I can approach and even, even if I do get rejected 
I know it's not me, it's just my approach and I need to 
work, and I keep needing to work on my approach. I'm 
not angry at women any more, I don't think they're 
bitches, it's just that they do, you know, I don't think 
they're, so I'm not sad and lonely any more. I can walk 
around life with a lot more happiness and joy cause 
I'm not walking around angry at a certain part of my 
life anymore.  

Ross: That's cool.  

Audience: Applause 

Ross: Yeah. It's on.  

?: Okay. Yeah, this, this seminar. It, it really clued me 
in to the idea that, you know, as I stand here, I know 
what's inside my own mind, but I have a very poor 
idea about what I am perceived like by you all here, 
you know. And it's a gap I, I, it's a gap that won't be 
here in six months, or some length of time in the 
future. And, you know, all of you are my brothers and 
I want you to know that, you know, I need all of you 
to let me know what it is that I really do because 
otherwise I won't.  

Ross: Thank you. Is that it? Are you done? One more 
and let's get out of here.  

?: The Bulls and the Bears.  

?: This is the first of Ross' seminars that I've ever 
attended and my first real exposure to speed 
seduction materials and I just honestly say it was 
quite worth it. I drove 350 miles ...  

Ross: Whoa.  

?: ... mostly in the rain to come here and I've been, I've 
met so many new friends and had so many exciting, 
fun approaches and experiences in the last three days 
that I didn't have the courage to or the, the materials 
and techniques to go about doing that before this 
seminar. I've learned a lot about how to communicate 
more effectively with people and to find the real 
reasons behind my past relationships and my, my 
past experiences with women that may have not have 
gone to the extent that I wished them to go to or to 
the length and this seminar has really opened my eyes 
up to that. And I feel my communication skills are a 
lot better as a result of it.  

Ross: Good. Make it count and kick some ass. All 
right. Thank you all for being here.  

Audience: Thank you, Ross. Comments from 
audience.  

Ross: You're welcome.
