Newbies tend to ask what exactly A314 is and what it does. For me at first I wasn’t sure and it is hard to describe, it is in all likelihood the hardest pheromone to work with. Once you realize what you have and you get that AHA epiphany moment, you realize that it is in fact, gold.
Consider that way back in ancient history many prehistoric people would have come across nuggets of gold in the rivers or the earth. Some of our ancient ancestors might have regarded it for a moment and decided it was little more than an unusual shiny rock with no inherent value. Yet others, consistently across the globe saw it as something truly special. Here was this rock that shined the color of the sun. A rock that unlike most other rocks was somewhat soft and malleable, able to be manipulated and shaped into ornate decorations that could be worn. This gave it such value that men began to trade it for goods and services creating the standard that would become money. Men shaped gold, but were in turn shaped BY gold. Men that saw value in gold went on to create the most successful civilizations of history. THEY were changed and shaped by the gold as much as they were able to shape it themselves into jewelry and coin.
What does this mean to the A314 wearer? It means that you have the power to channel, and direct the product, shape it into something more valuable than it is as just a liquid chemical you wear. You can shape it’s effects and achieve even greater results by allowing it to shape you. All this talk about congruence with product is all the more true when speaking about A314. In simpler terms consider comparing buying and using A314 to investing in a very aggressive ad campaign. It gives a message about a man of quality and substance, that’s a natural leader of men. A man that is confident without being cocky, assertive without being overbearing and aggressive. Allowing yourself to be shaped by that message into something congruent with it, will yield results far greater than could be achieved without A314. (The best product in the world might never be bought if not advertised). And definitely far better than using the A314 by itself (the best Ad campaign might get people to try your product but if it doesn’t live up to the hype, you’ll get no repeat business)
If you’re in sales it lends legitimacy to your sales pitch (possibly enhanced with IH).
If you’re in management or aspiring to it, A314 will add an aura of authority and leadership to your presence (possibly enhanced with Instant Shine)to your presence.
In pickup and seduction it gives the aura of a high value male, a catch too good to let get away. (good as a standalone, possibly better with Ammo)
In a long term relationship it reminds your woman daily of how lucky she is to have a guy like you (likely amplified by TuTH during those special moments)
But you have to WEAR it. Shape it, and let it shape you.
Damn, yes Radman. “What does this mean to the A314 wearer? It means that you have the power to channel, and direct the product, shape it into something more valuable than it is as just a liquid chemical you wear”
I couldn’t have said it better.
For any of these esp. A314 you have to learn to use it, shape it and let it shape you.
At this moment in my life, I am not that socially active, as I would like to be. Soon that will change. And when it does, I will make sure I will use my pheromones everyday, specially A314.
I really strongly believe that if ones uses A314 daily, that it will greatly have a positive long term effect on the user. For example in this case, become naturally much more Alpha. Is it because of the repetition of action and thoughts to be congruent, which helps to form new beliefs about ones self?.. maybe
Couldn’t agree more with you Radman - I don’t use this as a pheromone anymore, its way more than that, it’s like an extension of me. Some people say that it exerts a fatherly authority, not good for pickup etc.. but I have never gotten that feeling. With me, its always imparted a feeling of being viewed as the man who knows it all and has experienced all that there is to experience. I have gone to nightclubs whilst on layovers and outright bullshitted about what I do for a living (i.e. I’m an actor, producer, company CEO, colonel in the army etc…) - everyone bought into it and nobody questioned me for a single second. This is seriously powerful stuff.
IMHO, this is best used as a standalone or with perhaps 1 other complementary product at most (i.e. A314 + IH, A314 + Ammo). I see all these new kids come to the forum who use A314 in combination with P-this and P-that and MX-this and I think “No my son, that’s not how it works…” But I guess everyone is different.
I’m now using A314 P90 and it certainly has its own charm. Somebody PM’ed me and asked which I thought was better. One is not “better” than the other, they are just different. Just like a Ferrari or an Aston Martin. Very few drivers will drive / own both together. Both drivers have very different personalities, even the cars have different characteristics / personalities, but both are super high value.
Agreed. I suppose one could exert a fatherly old man vibe if that was the direction you wanted to take it. But as I said, A314, like gold can be shaped. Granted adding another product might help steer the direction but it’s likely not absolutely needed.
Great post Rad, I think you described A314 perfectly. You definitely need to be congruent with this vibe and the more congruent the better your results. I look at all the pheromones not just as signalers but as a aide to personal growth.
If your on the shy side though A314 can be a little tough to use. In those cases I always suggest new people work with some of the other mixes to build up some confidence then move onto A314.
I agree with mones being an aid to personal growth, which is far from what I expected when I first started using them. I came in looking simply for a cologne like product that would aid in terms of seduction but the products; A314 moreso than others turned out to be much more than that. When I first started wearing A314 I didn’t notice anything, it took a little over a week of small little changes to be noticed. Then I realized what to look for. I also realized when I was “on”, the hits were accepted, when I would falter in my confidence it was like nothing being worn at all.
Now I realize that one could argue that me being “on” or in the zone was what caused the effects, but I didn’t get reactions like this from people when I was at my best without mones. The A314 was the social lubricant that made my actions more easily accepted. To that end it’s inspired me in a way. As soon as I can buy my next bottle I’ll be charting my own self development into my own definition of what ps86651 would call, “The A314 Man”. Maybe it will help new users to understand what the product means and can do and will help them understand how to be congruent with it. But it will be more for charting my own personal growth that’s been inspired by the product and the effects it gives that I admittedly have come to want more of.
I found it difficult to be congruent to A314. I can be quiet by nature and I didnt like the serious side to A314 even when buffered with IH. People wouldnt approach me and I felt a tension within the team I worked in which was unpleasant to work in.
My feelings are that you have to be already in some authoritative position to use this effectively with an extroverted personality to prove you are the alpha male if not people will just dismiss you.
I will still use A314 but probably not on a regular basis until I can use it to maximum effect.
Mackie, consider what Rad is saying. You have to shape the A314 to you, otherwise its a chunk of rock. The tension you were feeling from the team is most likely internal conflict within you that was counter-congruent to the A314 vibe. You absolutely do not need to be extroverted to be an ALPHA male! You’re basically saying if you’re not in authority you can never be in authority but it doesn’t make sense. You really believe that everybody in authority always has been? Take a cop for instance, they are not really in authority, but they try to project an alpha stance when in reality most come off as people with little self respect. I’m sure these people could still wear A314 though.
Use A314 in increments to build up your confidence. In shaping the A314 to fit you, you’ll notice yourself fitting the A314.
I like steves advice of using it in increments, a 10ml bottle is supposed to last 6 months at 2 drops a day with weekends off. You could modify that to 1 drop a day for 2 months, then 2 months at 2 drops, and finally 3 drops for the remainder.
What kind of effects exactly are you wanting from A314?, professionally?, socially?
I have to agree with the way A314 is described here. RAD gives a good figurative rationale as to how gold and A314 relate to one another with the only differences being that instead of gold taking shape you take shape as a result of the A314 if used properly but at the same time Gold’s value is absolute in the sense that gold will always be cherished and sought after and it’s value will persevere the test of time.
I like A314 but I would rarely wear it by itself because I have a fairly easy susceptibility of falling into a lone wolf spell. I’m a little too wishy washy to be a leader and sometimes feel that I rather NOT make a decision than to make the wrong decision. I do better with choices rather than conceptualizing because if I start to think I never stop thinking and redouble back on everything I think about. A true A314 man is far and in-between usually being a plate too big for my head to wrap around.
I’m not really too sure if this is going to help you or not. Not sure whether its just your personality or how you were lead to believe what an alpha male (leader) is supposed to be. As for attraction or just in social situations, the alpha male isn’t someone who makes someone do something because they are stronger, smarter, better with women, than other males. These are often the traits that they exemplify but not necessarily what makes them the leader. Through years of evolution, the strongest survived, they were the best hunters and protectors of families (this is why women tend to like alpha males more). But as societies evolved, being the biggest no longer mattered because simply, 4 average guys can take down 1 strong guy. The leaders who were the true alphas evolved in these communities as the ones who TOOK CARE and WATCHED the well being of everyone else in the community, this is how the new alpha males have become. Remember you don’t have to be dominant to be the leader, most often, men who exude dominance over their peers are subconsciously lacking the confidence so they over compensate for it.
It just sounds to me like how I was back then when I deferred leadership because I knew I wasn’t the strongest, fastest, or most talented. I took care and looked out and did what was beneficial to everyone, and naturally they came to respect my opinions and decisions and came to be a natural leader of the group. That never just meant that I was stronger/better looking/smarter/better with women, just that everyone could count on me. That’s one of the examples of how it is. It just comes naturally now at the workplace because of those reasons. I hope it comes to you and I strongly believe that A314 will help over time.
If we consider an Alpha Male as a man who naturally possesses status, leadership and influence. We realize how little size and strength play into that. Granted physicality will almost always be a factor in attraction for most of us but the CEO’s and politicians who’s actions and decisions affect everyones lives are very rarely musclemen with ripped abs.
It’s social dominance nowadays, not physical dominance. Which makes sense since physically humans are extremely weak in the animal kingdom (a hundred pound female chimp could tear a large linebacker limb from limb) so our ability to work together as a social unit was our strength. The man that could organize, and more importantly motivate the other men for the hunt or for battle was the Alpha.
When you wear A314 you’re sending out the signal that you are a dominant man. Depending on your personality this can result in several effects and backlashes.
First is intimidation. You might be quiet because you’re shy, other people will take your silence in conjunction with the A314 and assume you’re quiet because you’re angry, conceited or just plain mean…force your self to talk. Remember you shape the A314 but it can also shape you.
Great expectations. Humans are by nature social animals and as such require a hierarchy leadership is fundamental and essential. Without it nothing would get done. Now peoples arrogance might cause them to deny this but almost everyone is looking for a leader. Somebody to step and and take over the reigns and guide them in a direction that will have positive results…congratulations when you put on the A314 and went to work you volunteered. Imagine seeing a liquor store hold up and there’s a cop standing next to you and you shout “look officer, that guy just robbed the stab and grab on the corner” And the cop’s reaction is to just shrug his shoulders and say “ok I guess I’ll go ask the clerk if he wants to file a report.” You’d probably be bewildered and frustrated wouldn’t you? Well if you put on the A314 and show up to work not really interested in taking on more responsibilities and stepping into a leadership role I can almost guarantee your coworkers will have a similar reaction.
So have some idea’s, and a plan for making them happen. In a very friendly but firm way instruct others on how they can help. You’ll notice you didn’t ask for the reigns, you didn’t even announce you were taking them, you just stepped in and did it and you’ll see the morale actually go up as a result.
Then there’s the intimidation factor, some Shine or IO can take a bit of the edge off of this. I personally prefer Shine as IO seems to beta the A314 effect a bit too much for my taste. But the products are not essential imo. If they were they’d have been included in the ingredients in the first place. Just smile, walk around like you’re having a great day. Say hi to everyone, compliment people on the job they do, say thank you when they do something for you. You become the leader they WANT to follow.
