Honestly, the first two books were more about what NOT to do. The VPTruth site and his replies via emails contained many of his strategies, etc. After playing the suggested credits and observing while I played, the "feel" of playing win goals, etc. became second nature and I modified some sessions-like changing machines or games after it seemed futile to continue after it became obvious nothing was improving. In other words common sense. That's why I say it's a very flexible strategy and not a step one then step two approach. As far as Trump, I voted for him- let's just say he exasperates me every time he opens his mouth. But the "worst imaginable" would be the "socialists" giving our great country away- God bless America.
