Mindset is important when you are going to be undertaking the quest of picking up a woman. Whether you are just trying to get a date, find a relationship or even just make a new friend to spend time with - mindset is going to be the biggest factor.

You see, at the end of the day, actively pursuing women is nothing more than a numbers game. Some women will like you and some just won't - it's the reality of the situation. By adopting a mind set that prepares you for rejection and puts you in the right place to keep trying, this is how you're going to ultimately succeed at your goal.

Some numbers to keep in mind:

- 3/10 girls will dislike you by default

- 3/10 girls will like you by default

- 3/10 girls it will be up to you and your behavior if they like you

- 1/10 girls will hate you

- 1/30 girls is actually insane and will try to ruin your life

Now, when I say "like you" I mean be open to chatting with you and won't immediately disqualify you or shoot you down. These numbers are important to remember. At the end of the day, 40% of women simply won't like you and won't talk to you. 30% of women may or may not like you depending on how you act and 30% will, at the very least, talk to you without too much trouble.What does this mean?

Well, basically, you have a 30% chance at getting a phone number and you can rest assured that at least 40-70% of the time you are going to get shot down immediately.There is some science to this and it has to do with personality types. People like people who they know, like and trust. For example someone who is super outgoing and talkative will probably get shot down by someone who is super introverted and quiet. Or, more likely they will never talk in the first place.This mind set is important because when you do in fact get shot down, instead of turning inward and blaming yourself, your self image, or whatever else you think is wrong with you, you can simply chalk up the incident to the 40% that will always not like you or the 30% who may or may not like you. It's not you, its just 40-70% of people you talk to who won't immediately like you.

So, now that we are comfortable knowing that 40-70% of the time we will get shot down, it simply becomes a numbers game. Basically just approach women until you find one that has a similar personality type and you can get to know them without much trouble.
