How do you guys get past the initial time period where your friends/wings don't believe in pick up
Should they? You're basically telling them "Come believe in this community, filled with guys selling you stuff for money who are telling you you can do AMAZING things." Harsh truth is 99% of PU is BS. Harsh truth is 99% of the guys are trying to take your money or just talk BS in general. Harsh truth is 99% of guys who start dont get good. Can you really wonder why anyone wouldnt believe in this?

or have flaked on you
Thats a different thing. If your friends dont respect you or keep their word to you, then yes, get new friends. First communicate that they should stop flaking or just not agree to something they dont want to do.

have limited beliefs?
Limiting beliefs. How do you know something is a "limiting belief"? Because some guru said it is in his program? Prove to yourself first that something is possible. You cant say what is or is not a limiting belief unless you prove its possible. Guy tells me you can turn cat poop into diamonds. If I dont believe that its a limiting belief? LB is just a word to stick a dogma on to you so you cant ever say some technique doesnt work. Because if you try it 10,000 times and it doesnt work..well its not that my product is shit...you have a limiting belief.
This isnt a bash PU post. There is some good stuff out there and you can do alot if you put in the work. But dont go in, believing shit is possible before proving it to yourself. Thats how you get more dogmatic instead of experimental. Cant really blame someone if they dont believe in PU, its like asking someone to join some pyramid scheme with all the scammers and hype out there. That doesnt mean you need to drop your friends because they dont want to invest their money into some dream that looks fake from the outset. You have to learn the shit, either alone or with other PU guys, and get good, see what works and whats BS. You think if I was your friend and you asked me to try investing in a risky business, I'd do so. What if you invested, got money and came back and told me? Then I'd be more trusting of the whole thing. So go out and figure it out yourself. Communicate to your friends clearly your goal, and that they dont need to join you, just keep the negativity and pessimism to themselves. Then SHOW them. Instead of asking them to take the word of some guy's newsletter right before he sells you a DVD.
