Memorize This Phrase and Make It a Part of You
She asks the questions:
"Isn't your line of work really hard?"
"Isn't it hard going to school and working at the same time?"
"Are you ready for the test?"
You are the Don Juan. You are calm, you are collected, and whenever presented with a question like this, you respond:
"Nothing I can't handle."
Nothing I can't handle. I am capable of taking on any challenge that comes my way. Bring it on. Let life give me hardships. Make things difficult. Give me challenging work, adversities to overcome. I will face them head on. They are
"Nothing I can't handle."
Even if you don't feel that way, or don't think you feel that way, you will present a confidence to the world. And, somewhere inside, you will realize... there's
"Nothing I can't handle."
Chicks eat this up.

This is a model tip! Very well done, Casanova! And you know, this one has just gave me a big boost today, and I feel this one will definitely make it through the rest of the month (I'm being very pressured with exams and other stuff!).
Very good tip, indeed.

A PortugueseMeatball! Glad to see there are fellow countrymen here http://www.sosuave.com/ubb/smile.gif
Excelent tip by Casanova! It's all in the attitude and in how you behave. Self confidence is a must for every DJ!

Cassanova - Nice one
A qualifying tip -- Put the phrase, in big, block letters, in places that only you will see it. On the back of your closet door, on your favorite bookmark, on a card in your wallet. Always see it now and then and repeat it in your head..
Nothing I can't handle...
The more you see it and think it...it will become ABSOLUTELY BURNED IN YOUR BRAIN!

Something like "Das ist nichts was ich nicht erledigen kann" or something like that.
Oder "das ist ja kein problem fur mich"

Gio, I'm way ahead of you on this one. Been saying that for years.
I hate people acting like it's not humanly possible for me to do the things I want to do. I always tell people that if there's something I want to accomplish, I will accomplish it.
People ask you those kinds of questions because they have doubts about themselves, and they're trying to understand how you could have the balls to think you could do what they can't.
I'm still waiting for you to be wrong about something, Gio. http://www.sosuave.com/ubb/smile.gif

I will remember this one just in case I will take a trip to Germany. http://www.sosuave.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Just kidding. Fascinating that you translated something that even our German DJ – derWichtigste – had problems with. http://www.sosuave.com/ubb/smile.gif

Another useful phrase to add to the list:
Her: “Does ... make you scared?”
Me: “I’m not afraid of anything.”
I read it on this forum, but unfortunately I can’t remember who posted it.
Please add more simple and useful phrases to use.

Okay, everyone seems to want more simple mantras to use.
Here's another one for you.
"Great." Enthusiastically.
So simple, so effective. When do you use it?
Whenever anyone asks you how you are.
Her: How are you?
You: Great.
Always. Whether you're great or not. Another example.
Her: How's everything going?
You: Great.
Nobody cares about your problems. When you smile, the world smiles with you, when you cry, you cry alone. If you're great, people want to be around you. If you're not, get lost loser. It's just the way of the world. But perhaps the "great" works best when things AREN'T great. For example, right now I'm just getting over a head cold/sinus problem. I feel kind of crappy, and I don't sound so great either. I'm at work and pass a cute girl in the hall, who I know only in passing.
Her: How are you today?
Me (smiling): Great.
Her (laughing): You don't SOUND great. Sinus problems?
Me (still grinning): Nothing I can't handle.
Powerful stuff here.
