"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.
Any one watching the ultimate fighter tonite?

"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.

"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.
Yeah, that dude's head was split wide open down to the bone. And that's taking a shot from a gloved padded fist. Can you imagine what his face would've looked like if it was a bare-knuckles street fight??? I shudder to think.Julian said:
He kept getting caught with the same exact move. That was just pathetic.

I know...I remember that saying that it was an elbow that did the damage though. Even though he sucked I gotta give him credit dude had alot of heart not giving up and going through the entire fight...he took that blow to his forehead early in the 1st round.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
That said, I would love it just as much if not more if every other fighter on Rampage's team goes down. Hate that guy. Always rooted for him to go down and some of the Chute Boxe thrashings in Pride were satisfying. He just retired if anyone didn't know.
Rampage is a great fighter, one of the best. But he is also a d!ck.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
edit-
Actually nevermind. I'm pretty sure that fight was staged for the drama. It's looking like they're going to bring Kimbo back to fight again next week in place of some guy that falls "ill". That submission was way too easy to get out of. I'm betting that they let him lose the first one just to add in some drama.

I know eight and ten year old kids who could teach Kimbo a lot about jiu-jitsu, basic ideas like a mount escape that apparently no one on team Rampage seems to understand.

Dana White is going to make some money off Kimbo. Mark my words.

Totally saw that coming. I knew that no matter how unbalanced Kimbo proved to be as an MMA fighter, Dana White will not let that big bearded cash cow slip out of his fingers.speakeasy said:
I used to have respect for Dana and how he handled the organization, but I think he is completely given to greed now. The fact that he let Kimbo on the show to try and "prove" he could hang in the big leagues was cool, but everyone knows that win or lose he is going to milk the Kimbo notoriety for all it's worth.
I mean the guy has some natural ability, no doubt, but he is completely BEREFT of a ground game. I have 6 months of jiu jitsu and I can see that. You put they guy on his back and he's like a helpless turtle. Good hands and boxing movement but any fight against him can be won simply by dumping him on his back.
I actually like Kimbo--he is humble and surprisingly funny. I just don't think he has the tools yet to fight at this level of MMA.
I also thought the stoppage against Roy Nelson was lame---Kimbo wasn't in danger, he just wasn't DOING anything. Herb Dean gave him plenty of chances though.
