How to Be a 3% Man

Great content, although repetitive and poorly structured.

Corey has a lot of great insight into the mind of women but I’ve found his content, though awesome for pickup, doesn’t really work for relationships. The whole “women are more attracted to men whose feelings are unclear” shtick is just straight manipulation since you’re not acting sincere. He talks about acting on your heart yet the girl must be the one to bring up exclusivity. He goes into a lot of detail about personal experiences which is good for context though he can get bloated at times and deviates from his points a lot.

I also find it bizarre that in his videos he often says to “READ THE F****** BOOK” and not cherry pick information from videos viewing them as a substitute, but then a large chunk of the book refers back to his videos, leading to a very incohesive read since you’re skipping to articles and videos and then back to the book again. This was surely done to boost his name search in Google, promoting him and his business more...smart move. To me it comes across like he was too lazy to put all the info in his videos in the book too, he puts it down to not constantly repeating himself, which is ironic considering how much the book repeats itself already. I understand it’s done to hammer certain points home, which it does, I just wish all the info was in one place. In short;

1. Set a definite date
2. Be indifferent yet charming, decisive yet playful
3. Let the women keep the dialogue going through controlling the questions.
4. Hang out, have fun, hook up
5. Repetition is the mother of skill
6. Excellence is not a singular act but a habit, you are what you do repeatedly
7. You hesitate, you masturbate.
8. Kiss test
9. Wait a week if she doesn’t make contact
10. Rinse, recycle and repeat

Overall I’ve read the book 13 times in the past few months so it’s very fresh in my mind and I’ve had mixed results. I had a girl who was chasing me suddenly stop dating me due to her feeling like I was playing games when I waited a week to contact, I dated a women who hated the fact I was being unclear with my feelings and she didn’t wanna waste her time (very confident girl so no insecurity) and I tried to be playful and tease on some dates like James Bond as the book suggests but some girls just didn’t jive with it, yet I’ve also had girls who were obsessed with me because of the techniques Corey teaches. They’re not 100%, “works all the time” techniques but with the right person they have a huge impact. It IS indeed a numbers game as the book says.

If you’re looking to tighten your game then it’s a definite recommendation from me, however if you’re in a relationship and are looking to reignite the spark I’d give it a miss. Be spontaneous, attentive when your partner seems distant, and keep dating them like they’re brand new. That’s about all the advice he offers.

3.5/5

highly repetitive

the ideas in this book are very good although just seem to be repeated all the way through and could've been much shorter based on this

Self promoting book.

I usually don’t write book reviews, but this is just over the top. Throughout the book, the author states “Read this book 10-15 times to understand this material”, while the author is self-promoting every few minutes by asking you to go to his Youtube channel, to learn about things he mentions in the book. To those familiar with NLP, this book is loaded with attempts to ‘hook’ an unsuspecting reader on this author’s Youtube content, other than that, it’s a regurgitation of Tony Robbins’ teachings and other popular online content about dating intertwined with a bunch of stories from the author’s dating life...

Repetitive but has nuggets of gold

Some fabulous advice/tips. Some language I felt was massively rude and condescending to nice guys. I almost felt this book teaches mice guys to be the rude/bad boy guys nice guys hate. I don't believe any guy needs to change some of their habits to the extent Corey advises which is borderline rude/manipulative towards women. That said I'm 90% certain his techniques work but some I find very manipulative and feel is simply "playing games" to get women to find you attractive. And this is made worse by fact he suggests keeping this up throughout your relationship. However, I m confident even if you utilise 15-25% of his tips you feel comfortable my success in relationship s will sky rocket. 4/5

Good information but.....

Where does How to Be a 3% Man rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

typical self help book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of How to Be a 3% Man?

Advertising his website way too many times... got irritating and came a close a few times to stop listening and returning the book.

Did Corey Wayne do a good job differentiating each of the characters? How?

Quite a whiny voice, so would of preferred if it was narrated by someone else.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Nearly made me cry a few times with the constant advertising.

It is OK

I read the book once and I got the audiobook to listen to it a few more times, sorry Corey too many interesting books in the world to read yours 15 times.
The narrator (Corey) could annoy some people as some friends have told me, I’m not a huge fan neither, so check some of his videos on YouTube first before you buy the audiobook or just get the paper copy of the book. If you can get over this or you don’t mind his intonation, it is a good audiobook.
Of course, you cannot agree with everything he says, as everyone is different, but it’s an interesting book in general.

Some very useful information

Corey makes the worst attempt at an English accent ever, but a great book overall.
