1
Let's talk about push -pull.
2
What is push -pull?
3
How can we use this?
4
I'll give you a couple examples of it as well.
5
Great technique to be using when you're flirting with a girl.
6
It's a great way, kind of building off of the last video
7
that you just saw in terms of not putting pressure on the girl, but still being able to display a little bit of intent.
8
Okay, so let's go over this what is a push pull exactly well
9
it could be described as a compliment plus a little bit of a diss
10
or a positive plus a negative
11
or it's also known as like a backhanded compliment okay
12
so essentially what it is is like telling some kind of verbal intent to the girl
13
that's half of it that's like the pull
14
and then there's also a push which is like literally uh metaphorically speaking it's like pushing the girl away with your verbal.
15
So that's why the positive is a pull.
16
And then the negative is like a push away.
17
So if you think about like trying to bring the girl in versus pushing the girl away, it's a push pull.
18
So the sentence would be a positive plus a negative.
19
And the idea behind this is we're showing some intent, but we're not putting too much pressure on the girl.
20
Actually, if anything, we're, we're really taking the pressure off of the girl on this one
21
because there's a positive and a little bit of a negative, right?
22
So in the last video, I described giving the girl a compliment and then continuously talking
23
or maybe asking a question or making a statement about something that was going on in the conversation.
24
Push pull is a step further, okay?
25
So it's like a positive plus the negative.
26
So an example of this would be instead of just telling the girl she's cute, it would be something like,
27
you're cute, but I feel like you're trouble or you're cute
28
but i feel like you're like low -key a brat
29
or you're cute but i don't think we would get along okay
30
so you could see that's like a positive you're cute
31
and then the negative the negative it's not even a huge negative
32
but it's it's just taking the pressure off of the positive right it's like you're cute
33
but this other thing okay and by doing that
34
and by saying these push -pull lines
35
it takes the pressure off of the girl it takes her mind off of the compliment, right?
36
Because people have a tendency to just instinctually, if I told you a bunch of positives about yourself,
37
and then I still had one negative thing to say about you,
38
I guarantee you would be thinking about that negative thing way more than the positives.
39
It's just how we are as human beings.
40
We have a tendency to focus on negatives from people or focus on criticism from people.
41
I was the same way in my dating content, right?
42
I post up a video, i get a hundred comments that are all positive but there's that one negative comment that i'm so
43
focused on right so it's like because of that reason excuse me
44
because of that reason that's that's the same concept of why the push pull is effective
45
because it's the girl's not going to be fixated
46
so much on the fact that you complimented or
47
if anything she's going to be like trouble wait why am i trouble
48
or brat i'm not a brat what do you mean are you you're cute honestly but like you're so feisty.
49
And then another thing you could do is you say the push pull and you also still continue talking.
50
So it kind of builds off of the previous video that I was just saying about complimenting and then keep talking.
51
Another thing you could do is compliment plus the negative and then keep talking as well.
52
Okay.
53
And that's like a even more powerful technique.
54
I would say I'm not saying one of these is better than the other in this week's videos.
55
I'm, I'm just giving you guys a bunch of different tools.
56
Okay.
57
Each tool is more effective in a, in, in a different scenario, right?
58
Like a push pull is like a hammer.
59
The other technique I told you was like a screwdriver.
60
I'm not saying the hammer is better than the screwdriver.
61
It's just, they're both tools that you could use.
62
And at the right time with the right situation, each tool can be more effective than the other tool.
63
Okay.
64
So if I'm in a playful banter back and forth already with the girl, and then I use the push -pull,
65
and then I keep talking as well, that could be very powerful, okay?
66
If we're not in that much of a banter, and the girl's not being super playful with me, that may not be the route to go.
67
In that case, you have another tool you can use.
68
I'm going to give you guys more tools throughout this week as well, but this is a good one, the push -pull.
69
So one other thing I wanted to point out about the push -pull is
70
that it doesn't always need to be the positive first
71
and then the negative it can be negative and then positive
72
or positive negative positive there's a bunch of different ways to do this okay
73
it should just be kind of flowing naturally based on how the conversation is going
74
if you're brand new to this
75
and this seems like a little bit of a struggle for you okay cool in
76
that case i would say just focus on doing a very basic line.
77
And don't try to go so complex with it at first, right?
78
We want to start off very basic, right?
79
So I'm going to give you a couple of lines in this video
80
and later on in this week that you could just use verbatim, word for word.
81
And as you get more comfortable with these things, you'll just start to embody these behaviors
82
and these mannerisms naturally to the point where eventually you won't even need to think about the line.
83
They just kind of come out naturally just based on having conversation with them.
84
You know, like I'm never at I'm at a point where I'm never actively thinking about the push pulls.
85
I just kind of embodied that playful back and forth banter with a girl.
86
Right.
87
And the way I got there, though, was by practicing these lines, writing down some lines, going out,
88
doing approaches and trying to make an active attempt to inject one of these lines.
89
OK, so that's the art of the push pull.
90
It's the compliment.
91
And then this other exception to the compliment.
92
OK, and then you keep talking as well.
93
I'm not like you're cute, but you're trouble.
94
Right.
95
And then I put the microphone up to her because that's just seeking a response.
96
And that's try hard.
97
And it could also be too much pressure on the girl.
98
It should be playful when when we're incorporating these lines.
99
OK, and that's how you're going to get that playful, fun banter that everybody wants to have with women.
100
Okay, so super powerful tool right here.
101
Be sure to start applying this into your interactions.
102
I'll see you in the next video.
103
I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
104
And quick announcement, by the way, I just released my brand new 12 -week mentorship program.
105

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
