i haven't watched RSD stuff and i don't really want to. In my opinion this is just wasting your time watching youtube videos and then trying to figure out what works for you and what not.The thing i hate about these videos in general is the way they talk. They talk a lot and at the end you are confused what they are talking about. I like the raw information, from then on you are on your own.

What worked for me was just facing my fears, getting out of my comfort zone. Getting over my AA and i can say that i still feel these butterflies in my stomach from time to time, but fuck it what can happen,

The problem with all these stuff is that everyone wants the easy way: step by step guide how to do stuff, well guess what the best experience i got was from just doing it, failing, getting exhausted after a hard workout. It was uncomfortable at first, but then well i got used to it. I am still nowhere near where i want to be, but after all this is life, you can't from zero to hero for one night.

Thanks for sharing, I very much agree with you.

Plus, I did have looked at a couple of RSD products in more detail. The overarching theme is that they're promoting themselves and aim at fooling as many men into following their snakeoil products as they possibly can.

It's not all awful advice and some suggestions are worth the pain of watching them. However, what bothers me is that they re-package and simplify information from the traditional and more progressive self-help sector poorly. This creates more problems than it solves. Because most of their evangelists have the sole concern of getting laid and consider "inner game" being just a tool to succeed with that, they are not aware of the more complex underlying themes. Sometimes it's really hard to listen to guys like Julien, thinking they know much about the subject (if you watch closely, you see that he's all but confident or a well-balanced individual himself).

Models has been refreshing because it addresses this and simply tries to give you a more realistic perspective. No miracle cures, no magic bullets, no pickup lines to memorise. One step at a time. And most importantly: be and stay honest and genuine. Respect women. RSD could learn a lot from the guy, but their whole business model and mindset is based on the opposite (although they refuse this publically, of course).

So, yes, I do consider Models being at the very top of what is out there despite of being that straightforward and reasonably 'simple'.
