Yes, that’s right. I’m finally about to give away the secret of the famous October Man Sequence to the world!
Here it is: There is no fucking October Man Sequence. Or, if there is, it’s definitely not worth knowing.
In case you didn’t know, it’s touted in the Game as a super-secret, powerful NLP ‘pattern’ that will magically make a woman incredibly attracted to you…in 15 minutes. Sounds like BS, right? Yet, it’s a question that people ask me surprisingly often in email and live coaching. What is the October Man Sequence? Do you have access to is? Can I learn it?
Not that there’s anything wrong with wanting to improve, far from it. But, the fame of the October Man Sequence does show the wrongheaded way that many guys are trying to improve.
When we encounter failure, the natural response is always to look for a “trick” or quick fix to the problem. This problem is especially pronounced in guys that are highly intelligent. They think, OK, how can I FIGURE OUT how to solve this problem? I must need to LEARN something new in order to solve it!
The problem is, in this game of attracting women, there are many problems that can’t be figured out. Most of the time problems arise from breakdowns in fundamentals.
Here’s an analogy: I fight mixed martial arts (MMA). When a guy loses a fight, many times his reaction is something like “If I only knew the spinning reverse flying death scissors move, I would have won! I should learn it right now!”
A bad coach will teach him the spinning reverse flying death scissors move, and the dude will walk away happy because he *thinks* he’s solved the problem. Actually though, the move did him no good and he continues to lose.
A good coach will recognize this natural human impulse to try and figure out our shortcomings and attribute them to some technique we don’t know. He’ll then tell his student the real reason why he lost — the other guy was bigger, faster, stronger, and did the basics better. In short, he had his FUNDAMENTALS down better.
Typically, the student doesn’t want to hear this. He’s done these stupid fundamentals a hundred times, and he thinks that he has them down. But, although he might of mastered them on an intellectual level, it takes much more than a hundred times of doing them to really master them. It takes thousands of times.
The only thing that will really help him is to drill those simple fundamentals over and over again until he REALLY masters them.
In pickup, it’s much the same way. Guys attribute failure to the lack of knowledge of advanced techniques, but that’s rarely the case. Most of the time, it’s the lack of real mastery of fundamentals.
Style and image, lack of hesitation, vibing, kino, being social and open, sexual presence, logistics. These are the basics that the naturals that are getting laid like rockstars are using.
Woodhaven, whose game has been very influential on my own, once told me something that I never forgot. He said, the difference between a master and a novice isn’t that the master’s knowledge of advanced technques. While he does know these techniques, for the most part the master uses the exact same basic stuff as the beginner. What separates them is only that the master does the basics incredibly well.
So, if you’re looking to improve your dating life, don’t search for super secret flying scissors moves or October Man Sequences. Look for the BASICS that EVERYONE IS DOING. Do them better than everyone else by endless repetition and tiny incremental improvements on your basic technique. A meathead’s style of seduction, requiring no intelligence? Perhaps. But then again, it’s not a coincidence that intelligent guys typically don’t get laid.

I agree with your post. Not really sure what to make of the apparent release of this famed pattern.
Hey Dan
First off, cool article once again that is all meat and potatoes.
What we do need to do is focus (or go back) to the basics and refine those areas instead of relying on a magical one liner.
Also, do check your email if you do get a chance (you certainly do have a habit of not checking mine ;)….:D…..hehe) to discuss things as per instant message. Im not sure how efficient it is to discuss things here on the blog. Laterz
[...] This post by Dan over on SexRevolutionBlog made me laugh… in a good way, since Dan hit the nail right on the head with his comments. And since I’ve been getting hammered with questions on the October Man Sequence (oh, something so secretive and unknown MUST be good, right?!) I couldn’t resist re-posting Dan’s views on this issue: Yes, that’s right. I’m finally about to give away the secret of the famous October Man Sequence to the world! [...]
Hey there guys,
IN10SE here - Let me tell you about the October Man Sequence.
It HAS been kept super secret by the few that know it… why?
Because it WORKS! Very powerfully as a matter of fact and in the wrong hands could be dangerous. (create obsessed stalkers, etc.)
The October Man is NOT a pattern - or a “quick fix”. I fully agree with working on ones mindset AND skillset on a daily basis in all areas of life.
The October Man is a powerful TOOL - It’s a Methodology that combines VOICE (suggestion), Guided visualization, and TOUCH.
I first got the idea by reading about the HUNA method called “Lomi Lomi” or laying hands.
The Kahuna healers would use this method for folk healing for centuries. (Read “The Secret Science of Miracles” by Maxwell Freedom Long)
I created the October Man Sequence based in part on this method as well as the work by Milton Erickson called the February Man.
For those who say it doesn’t work - they have never even tried it, much less even SEEN it in action. Those who have seen it in action and know nothing about it can only see results that they cant explain.
There has been much disinformation spread about what it actually is or if it even exists…
I can assure you that it does work and that it is far more powerful than what many think.
Best Regards,
IN10SE
Well Spiritfingers also knows *secret* techniques that allow him and his students to make a girl fall madly about him. It’s called demonstrating a sexual mastery. And becoming a sexual master sounds quite more pleasant to me than becoming a master hypnotist.
If it works so powerfully, why doesn’t IN10SE stalk a rich Hollywood celebrity and enthrall her? If it’s so supremely powerful and dangerous, why sell it like snake oil?
IMO, this is a lame attempt at an NLP comeback and making money out of desperate losers.
If you can pull girls easily every weekend you go out, why would you want this stuff anyway? I’d prefer good ole dancing and flirting.
IN10SE–
Here is what my experience has shown me:
A cool, sexual guy will get laid, regardless of whether or not he knows the October Man Sequence or any other advanced technique.
A nerd or asexual guy will not get laid regardless of whether or not he knows the October Man Sequence.
No offense bro, but you’re extremely vague in your description of the October Man Sequence. How exactly are “Kahuna Healers” and “The Secret Science of Miracles” supposed to help you get laid?
I’m genuinely interested in your answer, since I’ve heard good things about your game from people I trust and I’d like to understand where you’re coming from.
-Dan
the only thing i hear about this is that it can really fuk some poor girls mind up. i suggest u guyz take the disclaimers part seriously - For Entertaintment only!
Hey Dan,
Whether you’re cool or not may make a difference in your chances of getting laid with other technologies, but with the October Man Method, that difference is just no so much.
By the time you’ve run the sequence on your girl you’ve basically got her into an extremely aroused state and you’ve been touching her body all over. Throw in logistics and you can do the math. Even a nerd could get laid easily once he’d become proficient at the October Man. (Hey Bro, I know a few examples but don’t make me name names
Do the sequence repeatedly and you’ve started the sexual conditioning process.
The Kahuna method for Lomi Lomi just gave me a major piece of the puzzle in combining touch, voice, and visualization to amplify how powerfully you get results.
I also include a workbook with word for word themes and patterns for those who want to model it…
There’s a reason why this technology is still held as “The Golden Grail” of NLP seduction methods… even years after its conception… because it works. amazingly so…
Something doesn’t get so famous and held in such high renown by scores of world class PUA’s for any other reason.

Yes, the October Man Sequence exists; yes, the energy work it teaches works and is real. I have been practicing the energy manipulation skills mentioned in the book as a hobby since before I even heard of the seduction community.

“I just finished reading IN10SE’s ebook about the October Man Sequence and found it
1) Very interesting
2) Very helpful
3) Very funny, because the energy work mentioned isn’t any big secret and never was - I’ve been studying it as a hobby for the past 5 - 6 years.
I haven’t taken much interest in NLP type stuff until now when it comes to the seduction community. However, I have been studying and practicing psionics on and off for about 6 years, which has everything to do with the power of the mind and energy manipulation - the same energy manipulation talked about in the book. This was convenient because I’ve experienced what this energy feels like first hand and have already been through the stage of breaking down the ‘critical factor’ in myself.
I found this information and the methods described in this text easier to relate to than those in The Game, although Strauss still has a better writing style…and the October Man Sequence ebook was not as professionally written - grammar mistakes and such. But anyway, the information presented summed up psionics nicely and it’s the actual ideas and content that matter, not a few cases of writing ‘your’ instead of ‘you’re’.
After reading about this ‘all-powerful’ sequence I, personally, believe that the October Man doesn’t present any breakthrough ideas - they might be breakthrough ideas when it comes to implementing this energy manipulation for seduction purposes, but overall - they’ve been around for a long, long, LONG time.
The book did, however, enlighten me to new uses of the things I may already know and introduced things that I didn’t - such as inducing a trance using this energy and breaking the barrier between the conscious and unconscious mind rather than just inducing a fleeting feeling upon touching someone for the fun of it.
As an amateur who simply takes great interest in psionics, I’ve used energy manipulation as a simple hobby to have fun with and to do some emotional healing on myself (grounding, eliminating stress or nervousness, creating a sudden happy feeling where you don’t care or worry about other problems, etc), never for greater things such as those described in the book.
I haven’t done any energy work in a while and must get back into the habit of playing around with it.
