"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

A professor of mine (who happens to be the absolute man!) once challenged the class to go one day without eating. He said that most of the people who couldn't do it, gave up just at the last minute before going to sleep. Why would you quit when you're so close? He told us it's not because they were just too hungry that they couldn't stand it. It's the fear of change. The fear to push past your comfort zone.

So what I've learned from that is that it's important to challenge yourself to step past that comfort zone. It can be extremely scary sometimes but you'll feel like the man afterwards. Rather than worrying about how uncomfortable the situation will make you feel, try to look forward to how accomplished you'll feel afterward. Let that thought be your motivation to get off your computer or video game station and go to that party you were too "lazy" (afraid) to go to.

Happy New Year folks! This is your year!
 

"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.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Brilliant.

Reminds me of when my teacher told me "You have to step out of your comfort zone in order to get noticed" because on halloween I wore a nerd outfit and got massive amounts of good attention.
