Lots of modifications to the website currently in the works, including an updated “reviews” page. In the meantime I wanted to share the first written reviews of The 21 Convention 2010 (Stockholm Sweden). They are from the attendees and have only been edited for grammar if appropriate.

From Nils

Hi Anthony,

Although I have already done so in person I would like to take the opportunity again to express my gratitude for you making this convention happen!

It surpassed my expectations in every way and I’m totally impressed by all the speakers, the quality of their work, their commitment and their friendliness.

Also just meeting a guy like you was for me a great inspiration and source of joy, someone who is actually taking real steps towards happiness in life, a guy who does his own thinking is humble and authentic – that takes allot of courage and insights.

Keep on going with your VFF and paleo food, it’s awesome – as we both already know! =)
Cheers

I didn’t have that high expectations for The 21 Convention in Stockholm, I thought it would be all about how to get girls from a scarcity-mindset and from a pretty messed up perspective. I only attended out of curiosity, since tickets were so cheap!

Needless to say, I was blown away.

Speaker after speaker talked not only about how to get a great lovelife, but about how to get a great life overall. I was impressed by the quality, and how genuine the entire experience was.

This took my mind to a new level. Great stuff. I’d recommend it.

Oh, and I don’t want my full name attached to this review. My firstname is ok. I’m from Sweden.
Cheers!

Hey whatsup guys, I’m a Dutch 2010 attendee of The 21 convention in Stockholm. I’m aware that this convention is different from the convention in the US, so if you want to go to a USconvention, then, this review only tells part of the story.

For four years I have been studying topics like: meeting women, social and positive psychology and being social in general. Still, after achieving quite some improvement I noticed that I haven’t achieved my goals yet – I’m close though.

I’m writing this review, because I thought the convention was totally awesome and amazing, however, you won’t get a ‘Neotransformation’. Be ready to swallow the red pill though, if you haven’t already.

The 21convention did not help me this way

The convention is intense to begin with. You get 3 days of talks from approximately 10:00 AM to 07:00 PM. To me this is a lot, even with the breaks. I took a mathematics course once with this kind of intensity and they would switch between a one hour talk and one hour practice, which is hard to implement here, but it would be a big improvement though.

On another note, not all content is for you. So use common sense. Furthermore, some ideas also seemed really good (e.g. Gambler), however, when I wanted to apply them it totally made me thrown off balance. So some insightful ideas that are told, are just like improve comedy – google it if you don’t know what it is – which means that you need to know it, but when you’re on stage (aka in field) you should forget them.

The 21convention did help me this way

What I thought was absolutely amazing and awesome was the approach-a-thon workshop. I got coached by a guy named Ratisse and thanks to him I forgot basically what has been said the first day. This helped me to clear my mind blazing fast and get a focus on what to do. I added a small field report on the end of the review.

Asking questions has helped me a lot as well, because some concepts would set me on a totally wrong direction if I haven’t asked those questions.

A third way in which this convention has helped me is that I met some guys who share the same interests as me. You also kind of know how much commitment each and every person has just by coming to the convention.

Finally, there are also things like: a good atmosphere, good and insightful information and a new environment for us travellers. This all gave a benefit to me growing as a person.

To conclude, I have to say each convention is different. So no matter if there are a million conventions, I think they all are a reflection of the organizer. The organizer of this convention is Anthony Johnson and mate, I think you’re a totally laidback helpful guy that looks deeper than just the surface. I dig that and it’s one of the reasons why I came. Thanks to this convention I swallowed the red pill again! Like four years ago.

He gave me two tips and helped me with something I have a lot of trouble with. The tips were sex can happen everywhere (backed with a story of his) and distract your mind with counting in yourself and focusing on something (e.g. your breath) when anxiety to approach a girl inhibits you to approach. The thing that he helped me with was kissing the girl. Thanks to the two tips and the help with kissing her, being myself and having some experience under my belt, I got laid in 90 minutes! I learned a lot from that experience and so did she. And I told her about the convention! We dated the whole time during the convention.
