The Unplugged Alpha

good book to read if you wanna win in relationships with women and life, Thanks Mr. Richard Cooper.

I just received and it is absolutely amazing. It is a must read for everyone whether male or female. Pretty much sums up why everyone is so miserable today but also easily tells what to do about it.

In dit boek leer je precies wat Alpha man zijn inhoud. Op dating vlak maar ook hoe beter te worden in het leven.

Simple, short, concise and straight to the point. That's how I'd review this book. If you already watch Richie's videos on Youtube, you'll be familiar with pretty much everything he has to say in the book. Nevertheless, I really liked the way he approached every topic, gave some insights about the dating market we live in today, and how you have to do the work on yourself to become the best version of yourself. Not for the sake of women, but as a way to live the life of your dreams, and women will be a byproduct of that. Also, if you are in a Long Term Relationship or you intend to get married, then this book is a MUST for you, as it will open your eyes to the dangers of marriage living in todays laws. I found this to be an easy and relaxed read. I'm a brazilian and my english is intermediate to advanced, and I had no problem at all reading, and I laughed hard everytime I read "Chad Thundercock" haha. Anyways, on a scale on one to ten, I'd give a 9 for this book.

The author is not so much interested in a life outside or beyond "the Matrix", but in maximizing his worldly life within it. His critique of modernity is ambivalent between wether its gender dynamic is permanent throughout history and nature on the one hand, or a product of a twisted present on the other, to which his answer isn't to aim at being the change you want, but to use the situation. The author wouldn't say that its better to die for a lost cause than live a meaningless life, rather he'd say you have to embrace the meaninglessness in it all. No matter what one thinks about that in and of itself, is irrelevant; this means that Cooper wants to improve his life within the Matrix, not leave it. My own crucial point of disagreement with Cooper, is that modernity superimpose a boy-psychology on women, and denounce not only masculinity but feminity as well. I don't belive in "men walking their own way", nor incel, being a good idea, but Cooper doesn't provide the answer - largely because his empirical data (his own life) is too small, and he has crowned the produce of man made contraception as a part of the natural process.

I would have needed the wisdom in this book earlier... however im not sure if I would have accepted it. I would have seen it as sexist and pessimistic. You only really appreciate this point of view if you have been put through difficult life experiences. Then you go... ohhhh it really is this way. All partners test for weakness constantly and if you do not keep frame you get abused. Worth the buy.

I’ve been on a mission of making my own life for the past six years now and this book has been a tremendous encouragement to keep going. One of the first things I did to improve myself was train in Krav Maga (the best self defence system on Earth) and no surprise, Rich touches on this in my favourite chapter ‘Master Violence’. This and many other examples show Rich knows what he’s talking about; men of experience offer the best advice. His chapter on Red Flags in relationships is spot on; sadly I already knew most of them from experience, and I wish I had known these things before naively jumping into relationships, still believing the world was all sunshine and rainbows, before reality woke me up. However for the red flags I already knew, there was plenty more that I hadn’t even considered; that Rich perfectly sums up why they could be warning signs. Sadly guys we live in a world where we need to be careful of who we let into our lives; not just romantic relationships, but friendships as well; which Rich also covers. You need to be selective what sort of people you let into your life; as someone who made the wrong friends I cannot stress this enough. So if you’re someone who’s not too focused on relationships; then this book covers plenty of other things to be smart about in life: how to take better care of yourself, have a healthy mindset; which in today’s age of social media is needed. I know some have said this book needs to be handled with care, and there’s some truths that are hard to accept; I’ve never had that problem, as feel the truth is something you need to accept regardless of how it makes you feel; so if you are someone that might struggle learning some hard truths, then all more reason to read this because you need to guys. So to conclude if you’re a young man starting out on his purpose, if you’re a man who’s lost his way and needs to get frame back; then this is a perfect starting point. Rich keeps his words to point, they’re not fancied up or flowery; like the man himself they’re blunt and to the point. Also he doesn’t promise to fix your problems, or wave a magic wand that solves everything over night (like some scam artists out there); he makes it perfectly clear that you have to DO THE WORK. The only person that can make you a better version is YOU. True power is the degree at which you control your circumstances and the direction your life will take; and only you can do that. All Rich does is provides you with the facts, what he’s learned from his experiences; and most important of all Motivation to chase excellence. That’s why love that the book is short and easy to read; as will need to re-read it from time to time to keep yourself motivated to keep yourself the main focus of your life.
