"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I have never seen a Judo throw utilized in an actual street fight. I have done a little bit of it and it is scary stuff. What are your thoughts on it? I wish I had studied it when I was younger.
I have 2 friends who are black belts in Judo and I gotta say, I've never saw a martial art be so useless unless those guys just choked up or something, Karo Parisyan was able to utilize his Judo quite a bit in the UFC, but he is also a top tier fighter back in the day and even then, it didn't come out much, but when it did, made a difference I imagine

 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

lol....yes I can see that. The only martial art more useless might be Akikdo. Btw traditional martial arts like TKD and Karate are coming back into style in MMA. I always figured that the TKD kicks would be very useful in a streetlight if used correctly. MMA is starting to prove that Karate blitz attacks ( Machida, MVP) and TKD kicks (Wonderboy) are deadly.

Well kicks have always been in favor, they generate the most power out of any strike by far, it's just hard to aim them specifically at a chin like you can a punch, but like some guys could probably kill with a well placed spinning back kick or head kick. I watched this kick live in a bar, the entire place went wild was the craziest strike I ever saw.

 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Tonight is the fight. Paul has widened his lead in the odds. Betting on woodley and winning pays 150 for a bet of 100. I'm still expecting Woodley to win.

Paul wins by split decision. Woodley is just fvcking horrible at boxing. He stands flat footed, his punches are all arm and no power. This is yet another ppv that I am glad I watched for free instead of buying it.
