"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

I've applied for a patent and I'll be looking for a manufacturer or buyer. This is a combination of a couple of previous ideas, my attorney says that such a combo of past ideas is stilll "unique" enough to be patentable. It surely does work, as proved with animal tests.
 

"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.

I'd be interested in knowing what you mean by doubling the power. Kind of vague.

Also, if you have "patent pending" status, it's as good as having a patent and you're protected.

Its doable but under certain federal statutes (Presuming you are in the US) its not achievable by civilians under the code "Could potentially be harmful to Peace Officers." You've only applied, not received word back on it nor have you gotten approval correct? You'll most likely get your idea nerfed just like 1000s before you.
