It doesn’t matter how much you learned something. But if you can’t even say the openers, then you are not going to be effective. It takes practice. I am going to give out homework assignments and a grade. A – F. You know exactly what you need to learn and what you have to perform. I would give you exercises or drills for every component. When you are corrected, you are going to get better. This is where a coach comes in. You would send me your audio recording on facebook. You will be tested for your ability to perform. I won’t hesitate to give you a critique and a fair mark until you become automatic.
This Wikipedia article states the four sets of skills you would need in order to get to my level. Without my critiques, you would keep making the same mistakes over and over. Once you figure out how to do it correctly, you would do a ton of drills until automatic. Until you don’t need to think about it anymore.

Solution: Just do everything I tell you. Rule 1, trust everything I tell you is true because it was field tested with 80 students. Rule 2. Don’t blame the girl or something else. Fix your game and LMS. Rule 3. Unless you get her on a date, it doesn’t count. No positive reactions counts.
