I was both surprised and relieved to find out about the Brad P Secrets of Inner Game audio program.
Surprised because I had the impression that Brad P was against purely inner game work (aka “mental masturbation”). It’s one of those insidious tasks that can give you the impression of doing real work, without getting you any closer to actual results – kind of like a sales person who sorts his business cards rather than picking up the phone and calling prospects.
I was relieved because I have some serious confidence issues when it comes to women and dating. People and self-help books telling me that I’m a great guy and that I should just be myself have been pretty much useless. They cater to people where they are rather than encouraging them to grow.

The Power of Inner Game is a presentation Brad P gave to a group of guys who were living in the Pickup Mansion (basically an extended boot camp that includes a place to live with incredible logistics for meeting and bringing women home) and discusses eighteen issues that cause guys to sabotage their own efforts and teaches you how to overcome them.
You probably won’t suffer from all of them, but even one is powerful enough to either completely screw you up or massively improve your chances of success.
For example, staying motivated to go out and approach has always been an issue with me. When Brad said that “motivation is directly tied to your expectation of success” a light bulb went on. Most nights I’d rather watch a movie, order a pizza and drink beer than go out and meet women, and I didn’t understand why or how to get myself to do what I knew I had to do. Listening to the program helped me realize that it was because I didn’t believe that going out on any given night would get me laid and gave me some strategies to overcome that belief.
It can be hard to focus on the sections that don’t resonate with you. Fortunately, the tracks are split up by topic so you can pick and choose the ones that apply to you when you need a refresher. (click here for the full list and program description)
How to Use Secrets of Inner Game
- Set aside a block of time to listen to the entire presentation and take some notes
- Choose the one area that is holding you back the most, listen to that section again and develop a strategy to get it handled
- Stay in the field – none of these problems can be solved in a vaccuum
1. Listen to the entire program: Why not just skip the section that seems most important? Because you might not even be aware of the biggest thing holding you back. In my case, I would have guessed that overcoming the Nice Guy Syndrome was my top priority, but it is actually increasing my Capacity to Grow and Learn (an area I previously considered a strength).
2. Choose one issue and work on it until you get it handled: You definitely want to think serial tasking rather than multi tasking here. Work on one thing at a time, and then move onto the next. You don’t need to get everything done at once, and trying to is a recipe for failure.
3. Stay in the field: No where in this program does Brad recommend taking time off to work on your inner game. In fact, if you choose to do that, there’s a good chance you’ll never go back.
Also, staying in and spending a lot of time thinking about what’s wrong with you is depressing… I tried that, and it doesn’t work.

To sum up, a lot of effective techniques for meeting and seducing women are widely available on the internet, but it’s the inner game issues that prevent you from successfully using them.
I chose Brad P’s inner game program over others because I know he gives just the right amount of theory and then gets into practical application.
