how to get into a social flow that is so strong
2
so magnetic that it effortlessly pulls people into your life i have hit this
3
so many different times in my life countless nights out
4
and even during the daytime i've gotten into extreme social flows to the point where i'm literally walking around
5
and i feel like i'm just like oozing this this like aura
6
i don't even know what else to call it right maybe
7
you've been there maybe you haven't hopefully you've been there without alcohol.
8
What I've noticed is that with a lot of beginners, with guys that are just starting out trying to get better with their social confidence,
9
if you get past that initial anxiety
10
and you've ever gone out for a night out
11
or you've taken massive action one day and you've really pushed past that initial layer of resistance, you start to get into a social flow, right?
12
And the first couple nights out when I first started doing this over 10 years ago, I was not getting into social flow
13
I was not getting into a crazy high
14
I was I did not have a magnetic aura I had crippling social anxiety
15
and I was very dependent on alcohol there was no way I was going to go out
16
and do this stuff during the daytime and
17
so for me it was uh it was it was really difficult at first all right
18
so there was zero social flow
19
but I want I want to talk to you guys in this video about how to actually do this sober
20
and there's a couple different practical steps that I want to go over
21
and then there's just a little bit of understanding about the process itself.
22
Okay.
23
I'm not going to talk too much about my journey in this video.
24
So if you guys want to know more about my whole backstory, cause I'm 35 years old now,
25
but if you want to know more about my entire transformation and how I've helped a thousand plus men transform as well,
26
or even more details of my coaching program, link is in description.
27
You can check out that in -depth training.
28
I go over all of that and a whole lot more, but let's talk about how to actually get into that social flow.
29
All right.
30
At first there's going to be high levels of resistance, high levels of anxiety.
31
Okay.
32
The only way that you will ever get into a sober flow is to go past
33
that point for an extended period of time.
34
So I'll give you an example.
35
You want to go out and do this daytime or nighttime to get into a social flow.
36
Um, you, you can't, you can't do this without taking action consistently for a prolonged period of time.
37
So what I tell clients honestly is that, hey, if you do have high levels of anxiety or you haven't been in social flow consistently,
38
one of the first things you could actually start doing at home as a prerequisite to kind of get the ball rolling,
39
get a little bit of social lubricant going, is you just start talking out loud.
40
A lot of the times in my day -to -day right now, guys, I get into a social flow just from speaking on camera.
41
Now I'm not going to, I'm not going to catch a flow five minutes into recording,
42
but if I film enough content over and over and over again, if I'm talking out loud,
43
even though there's nobody, there's nobody in this room right now, it's just me and a camera and this really bright light on my face.
44
But if I talk here long enough out loud with enough of an expressive tone, with a, with a less,
45
with, with a little bit of a filter, or as little of a filter as possible, and I say things that are pushing my emotions out,
46
I will catch a social flow, right?
47
So the first thing I tell guys is, hey, you want to go out, get into social flow and build that flow over time?
48
It starts with just warming up.
49
Starts with warming up.
50
So you want to start talking out loud in an expressive way where you force yourself to laugh,
51
where you talk louder than you normally would, right?
52
So that's where it starts.
53
Even just five to 10 minutes can be a great warmup
54
If you also have an opportunity to do so,
55
you could call a friend on the phone and speak to them for five to 10 minutes out loud as well.
56
Now we actually get out into the world.
57
This could be daytime, this could be nighttime.
58
We're trying to get into a social flow.
59
What I recommend doing first is just taking the first step by saying things to people in passing, right?
60
If nothing else, you have very low levels, just start saying things to people in passing.
61
That alone can really boost your state.
62
If you've been working inside all day, looking at a fucking laptop and you're feeling drained you're feeling sleepy
63
and then you do five to ten minutes talking out loud
64
and then you go outside
65
and you just start talking to people in passing like literally greetings
66
and compliments that alone can start to wake you up a little bit
67
however
68
if you really want to get into a social flow like
69
what i was talking about the beginning of this video i'm talking about like you you're on a high
70
and anybody you talk to is like really drawn into you and you're just in a completely different emotional state,
71
it's going to take more action than that, right?
72
But what's going to happen is you start to go past the zone that you've ever, that you're normally comfortable at, right?
73
So for most men, I think the easiest way is to go up and start approaching women.
74
If you actually go up and do a direct approach on a girl, like you actually stop a girl and let her know
75
that you just saw her and you thought she looked cute and you wanted to just see how her day's going,
76
you wanted to meet her really quick, right?
77
That is extremely uncomfortable for most men.
78
Now, if you can't do that and you, now, if you haven't been doing that and you start trying to do that, get ready.
79
Because after like one, two, or three, you might feel a little bit uncomfortable right
80
or you go talk to a couple people it might feel uncomfortable
81
if you have high levels of social anxiety but
82
if you keep going
83
and you go to from three to five approaches to 10 approaches to 15
84
or even 20 approaches at some point
85
you get over like like your nervous system actually calms down at some point the first three
86
or five you're really freaking out because you're not used to doing this.
87
And it's like, what is going on?
88
Is this rejection?
89
Like I want to go home.
90
If you stay past that point though,
91
eventually the nervous system really calms down and you start to get desensitized to whether or not you're going to get rejected.
92
And now you're going to be in this really, really optimal state, really optimal state, which is, it's literally like a drug.
93
It's a, it's literally a drug.
94
That's, that's what it is like
95
if i were to look back at earlier in my journey
96
i was literally chasing this high i would go out at nighttime
97
and really look forward to getting into these crazy high states
98
and by the way i'm not saying you need to go like
99
that guys what i'm trying to show you in this video is
100
that if you just are somewhat social on a daily basis
101
and you just push your your social comfort zone a little bit, you'll, you'll raise your baseline social flow.
102
Like right now I can wake up and I'm pretty social.
103
I haven't done any social warmup.
104
I haven't approached anybody.
105
I could turn the camera on without even warming up and just go into it.
106
Right.
107
And so your baseline levels of social flow will go up and up and up with consistency.
108
So there's two parts to this as I'm kind of riffing here.
109
One part of it is if you do this on a daily basis, a minimum amount of action on a daily basis,
110
you're going to build momentum.
111
You're going to build consistency and your baseline is going to start to go higher and higher and higher.
112
And your ability to just talk to people
113
and have a really powerful vibe and aura to you that will start getting stronger and stronger and stronger.
114
So the daily consistency is a big part to this.
115
But the other part of it is in one day out in any one session,
116
you really need to push it way further than whatever your comfort zone is.
117
Because I was the guy at one point where I would just go out
118
and try to do my three interactions or my two interactions a day, or just say something to three people, which is great.
119
That's a, that's a great first step.
120
And you can totally make progress that way,
121
but you're not going to get into an extreme social flow to the point where your confidence is like
122
elevated higher than it's ever been on a day -to -day, right?
123
The only way you do that is a prolonged amount of action.
124
You take, like if you're used to doing like three interactions on the night out, or you approached three girls, or you did something like that,
125
like try doing 20 one day, try doing like legitimate, like 20 approaches.
126
And at some point in that process, it might be at eight, 12, 15, 20.
127
I don't know.
128
I have clients that have done like 30 or even 40 or 50, not that you need to go that high.
129
But what I'm saying is once you get past a certain point, just it's, it's just like anything else, right?
130
If I, if I turn the camera on and I talk after five minutes, I'm not going to be in a crazy social flow.
131
But if I've been recording for an hour, I'm going to be in a crazy social flow.
132
Or if I'm running on the treadmill, the first three minutes, I'm barely even warmed up.
133
And then at some point I really get into the flow of things it takes time to get into that flow, right?
134
So you need uninterrupted, prolonged amount of action.
135
But the reason that the social flow is so crazy is that once you hit that level,
136
it's like something flips in your brain and you can now just pretty much go up and talk to anybody.
137
Like your fear of rejection for the day, unfortunately, it's only for the day.
138
It's not like you unlock it and then you're just like God mode the rest of your life.
139
But for the next like hour or two, your emotional state is at a completely different frequency
140
and you can actually go out and you have like zero fear of rejection
141
and you could probably push it a lot further than you ever have before right
142
so i wanted to talk about this
143
because i don't i think there's a lot of men out there
144
that never hit you never catch your your social flow you never really hit
145
that level you just kind of you maybe you watch content like this
146
and you do a couple approaches here and there
147
or maybe you only do drunk approaches or maybe you only watch content
148
and you don't even really do the thing whichever level you're at
149
It's good if you're doing at least a couple of days, but if you never really,
150
really push it, dude, you just don't unlock that next level.
151
And there is a next level, man.
152
And once you get there, I'm telling you, there are several people that I met on either nights out
153
or days out where I was in just an insane flow
154
and we just had a really amazing conversation because my vibe was just so powerful, right?
155
Men and women, this is not just for picking up girls.
156
This is for networking.
157
This is for social confidence this is for being able to interact with anybody it's literally a superpower
158
and once you start building this thing up
159
you're going to realize like damn this actually leads to freedom this leads to unlimited opportunity in my life
160
because essentially every person you talk to you could either make a friend
161
or a business partner or a potential lover right
162
when it's done properly so if you're not pushing it
163
and you're not getting into social flow start prioritizing this i encourage
164
you guys start pushing yourself one two three times a week get out there
165
and start practicing this could be in your day -to -day
166
this could be you taking a dedicated time out of your day to go practice your social skills
167
it could be on the weekends on nights out all right it doesn't matter
168
which one but whatever fits your lifestyle it's important
169
that you start pushing it because there's so much benefit
170
that can come from your life
171
if you get this side of your life also handled all right
172

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
