"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Anyone have any interesting stories about starting or running their own business?

Things like how you got started, what kept you motivated and sane in the early stages, the kinds of customers you deal with....
 

"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.

don juaning can apply to entrepreneurship and vice versa.

to start a business you need some kind of income coming in, whether it be from your current job or clients you may have. Right now im not making enough money but im just dealing with it. I pretty much do whatever I want and try to make money off of it.

You may get discouraged by other guys and woman having decent jobs and enough money to go out a couple nights a week and afford a nice apartment, but F em, cuz guess what youll probably be there boss in five years and they'll be in the same office. Most people dont understand business. A lot of people just think because they know how to bake real good cakes they can open up a bakery. Not true. Im a self taught entrepreneur, I just have the drive and the hunger for knowledge, and like to run things. Most every job I had Im at the top of my position within a few months.

Definitely meet as many people and make as many friends as you can, and they will call you if you provide excellent service. The smarter people you run into, ask them as many questions as you can. More friends are more valuable than more money, pool your resources and there are business opportunities around every corner.
