This book although not perfect was pretty darn close.  I have read many of these guides to help improve my dating life.  This digital page-turner is not bathroom reading or advice coming from some porn star or a writer of Playboy.  I too have fallen for those guides, but have come away often disappointed.The author does not over describe himself in some brag session in each paragraph, but instead he challenges you to realize that getting into a relationship or getting the girl all starts with you the reader.Each chapter opens with a very powerful quote to inspire.  Mechanically and logically, you are given an instruction manual.  You are going to be asked to implement almost a life changing approach.  The objective of the book is to get us the magic ingredient of confidence, or as the title the building of a confident man.  Funny, but I do remember an old commercial for a cologne or deodorant, which had the catchy phrase "confidence is sexy".  Each chapter is broken into lists or steps, and clearly, he seems to suggest that if you do not follow the steps it is most likely you will fail.  This is the first book in a series of four books, and men this is not a quick read.  In reading the book cover to cover, I felt this similar to when I decided to train for a Marathon.  The book really drives home the fact that you have to take baby steps for you hit full stride.The book asks you to reflect, and gives you a strategy to implement to become more than just "average".  He suggests another thing that we men often forget, do not be a kiss ass, and strive to make a woman feel important.  I will be honest these are universal rules. I knew, but now on the dating seen (divorced father) I realized I have forgotten them.The book does at times gives some great plans but fails to provide strong examples, which at times was disappointing, but maybe that will come in the future books.  Each chapter has an overview, and makes learning these great positive confidence-boosting techniques so easy.  He even challenges you do drop the TV and videogames, consider getting back into shape, fix your attire, and yes cleaning up the dump we often refer to as our home.  The book is jammed packed with details to support the title.  Any average guy like me can identify with his believable strategy.  The book had me very curious about the author as you will come away thinking he is a life coach. This is a serious approach to a serious problem of how to win the prize of the love and affection of another.  I do like the approach now the results are up to me, and is going to require change and work.  I'll let you all know in due time, but I'm feeling better already on my potential outcome.
