[Pickup Professor]

I am much earlier in my training & development than any of you guys. More specifically, I am in the early stages of reforming my inner game. I am noticing that each time I go out I am slowly removing my preconceived notions and "bad programming" that I have learned throughout my life.

As I develop my skills, I am trying to figure out how to measure my progress. In other words, how are my leadership skills improving with women? Simple variables like # number closes, # dates, and/or # closes every month are indirectly related to the qualities of a good leader in the PU game.

Throughout my professional career, I find measuring my success every week is critical to my continued growth. Brian's post is VERY important in that women, on average, are attracted to strong leaders and will positively respond to men who emanate leadership qualities. But how do we measure these qualities? If I can figure this out, I can improve my game more quickly by giving myself very specific objectives that I can attempt to achieve. However, # number closes every week, for example, does not seem appropriate. Right now, all I can do is continue going out and apply what I have learned in the bootcamp to meeting women. But that objective is a little broad/too unspecific for me.

Any ideas?
