 We've got Steve Maeda, five-time 21 convention speaker. That's a lot of times. I think that's the record, except for Anthony. Steve is the founder of The Sexual Life, blogger, podcaster, seduction coach at The Sexual Life. Good friend of mine, awesome dude. He's going to lay you guys down with some amazing knowledge and let's bring him up. What's up, man? Yeah, yeah. What's happening? All right. So, man, this is the last speech. Thank you guys for staying because the 21 convention is like so much of my life. You have no idea. I started speaking to this convention in 2008. And I started in the seduction community in 2006. And my life is transformed in ways that are truly amazing. And what I want to talk to you guys about tonight, there's mainly two main things that I want to kind of pound in if that was the proper words used for it. Number one is that seduction can make you, it gives you the opportunity to live the best possible life. And the second thing is seduction is organic. I'm going to write those things down here in a second. But I also wanted to talk about my journey in seduction a little bit and what it meant through the convention. What I love about the convention is because there's a running history of me and who I am and what I put out there and all that sort of stuff. And if you watch, I mean, I don't even watch all my speeches, but if you watch my 2008 speech to now or even 2011, you see this evolution of how this has influenced me. And you have no idea how much this convention has taught me so many things from Anthony Johnson to the guy behind the scenes, Mike Gutino. And everybody else who's been a part of it, every person that's attended and talked with me or shook my hand, all that sort of stuff has influenced me in so many ways to not only have the best social life, the best sexual life, but build the best friendships, be the healthiest person, and have the best my mindset has ever been. And hopefully, by the end of this speech, you can truly see that seduction can be the gateway for you living your best possible life and that seduction is truly an organic thing. So what I want you to do is I'm gonna write this down or I'm gonna write a few things down on here. And what I want you to do right now is on your piece of paper, I want you to write down one question. You may know me, you may not know me that can do with anything. It can do with seduction, it can do with life. It can do with whatever you're wondering now. And I wanna engage you guys on that question and bring it back to some of the core beliefs I have. If you're watching this at home, you can do this. You can email me at Steve. That's my name at thesexuallife.com. And I want you guys to also know that you can email me there as well. And I'm probably gonna do a lot of writing, so bear with me here. I'm gonna be turning pages, it'll be crazy. Number one, remember that one principle that I really wanna hammer in is seduction. Oh, how should I write this? Goes to your best self. I was gonna write ideal man, but I don't wanna steal the 21 conventions thing. And then also the second thing is seduction is organic. All right, so what I wanna do here is have that microphone ready and really interact with you guys. The best way that I interact with people, well, the best way that I deliver the what's truly in my head, what's truly in my heart and how these things have influenced me is to interact with you guys. And the reason why I wanted you guys to write something down is because whenever I ask for questions, you're like, ah, and then it takes a while to get people going. So who wants to start first? How about we just hand it right next to the patrol? So what question did you write down? I didn't write a question down yet. You're a son of a bitch, not just a... But okay, so what's up, man? You've known me actually for a long time and what's on your mind with all this stuff? You've been traveling the world, all that fun stuff. Let's see here. Yeah, I can ask you a question. Well, okay, I've been involved with this stuff for some time. I've learned a lot. I'm at a point in my life where I'm pretty satisfied with the women I'm getting. Pretty satisfied with my lifestyle overall. Right? What is, what else is out there, I guess? So what's the next thing I could look forward to as far as personal growth is involved? Sure, sure. And there's a couple of things. Now, number one is, I also have a podcast that you guys should all listen to. If you go to thesexuallife.com slash blog, it's the shit. And to be honest, I don't have a lot of seduction guys on there. There are a few people on there, but it's really promoting a message that your life can be broad and have a lot of travelers. And all of my former clients that I work with and stay in contact with, we hardly ever talk about women. What we talk about is actually shit that's in this convention, what we're doing for our health, what we're doing for our diet, what we're doing for business, what we're doing for our mentality. And I think what's so important for me, what I learned and I really wanna bring it back to these things is if you're going to have the best social life, sexual life, lifestyle, you have to be your best possible self. If you're going to be the best expression of yourself, this is actually something Keith Norris taught me, one of the speakers here is the best, the best, the superlative, whatever, the best speaker or the best personal trainer that I've ever known. And man, my brother went through the Olympic trials and I know a lot of athletes. But he told me if you're gonna be the best expression of yourself, you have to be in shape. If you're going to be the best expression of yourself, you have to be somebody that is living an organic lifestyle that's living in what I call a sexual lifestyle and you're willing to put yourself out there in the world. Now, one of the things about humanity is humanity is an organic thing. We're not a machine. We have components that we can repeat and stuff that might be patterns and all those sort of things, but what makes the world move, what makes God, man, what makes seduction the biggest teacher of my life is that it happens in an instant. In any human emotion that we feel that's moving, that you feel when you're traveling, that you feel when you're experiencing another culture, that you feel when you eat the best food or make one of the biggest accomplishments, that could be, well, that could be sexual, that could be sadness, that could be fear, that could be true happiness, all those things, that could even be violence. Those things happen in an instant. Those things are organic. Those things can't be replaced. And for me, what seduction has taught me is that
