"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.

It seems to me that there should be an official "Success" section in this forum. Being a DJ is all about developing the inner game and being and feeling successful, and it's a shame that these discussions are relegated to the generic "anything else" section.

Doesn't our quest to attain and preserve personal financial success deserve a forum all its own? How can we make this happen?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Ok, so far two replies from two idiots.

Yes, I read the sticky. I am talking about success strategies, not financial "advice". I'm talking about mindsets we can develop and adopt in order to succeed in life, whatever the definition of success is for each individual. I'm talking about developing successfull habits in life. Get it?

Judging by the lack of intelligence reflected in KillaCam's reply he must be under 17 years old or severely challenged so I'll let him slide this time.

Is anybody out there who feels we would benefit by having a place to discuss success strategies and insights?

Edit: I see KillaCam's age is in fact 17. That explains his reply, although I have read words of true wisdom from other kids on this site.

Yeah man, I can judge someone's intellegence by 6 words on an internet forum too. Thank you for letting it slide, you're so kind.

If my age is all you have to use against me, i'll head off and do something constructive. I don't like getting my feelings hurt by internet baddies :(
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I'm feeling quite magnanimous tonight so I'm going to try to help you one last time.

The sticky pertains to exercising caution about taking specific financial advice from strangers. This is an excellent warning, in my opinion.

My thread, however, is about discussing habits, strategies, tactics, mind-sets, etc. geared specifically toward attaining success, financial and otherwise. What does a man think about his business when he wakes up in the morning? Indeed, what time does he wake up, and what time does he go to bed? What habits has he developed in his life that are designed to yield a life of success? What does he do on a daily basis to improve himself?

These are the things that I think would benefit the community. I couldn't give a rat's a$$ about what Joe Blow thinks I should invest in. That's why the sticky is there. Rather, I'm interested in sharing thoughts on the inner game.

None of which was mentioned in your op.
