"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 am fairly new to going to the gym. Used to be really unfit but got to the point over a few weeks where I could run a mile at a decent pace. However went today and got tired after running about half that! Its not just that my muscles were tired, I was out of breath too and it was just really hard going. Its got me down a bit 'cos I feel like for some reason I have just gone back to my pre-gym levels of fitness. What is going on?
 

"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.

How long has it been since you last worked out?

Sometimes if I'm tired or sick I feel like that too, I wouldn't really worry about it unless you've taken a long break from working out.

sounds like you need some steroids or at least amphetamines. Just kidding, make sure you eat low-glycemic carbohydrates and some protein to sustain you're energy.

How many days have you lifted the past seven days? It should be no more than 4. If you did 5 or more days in the past week, then you are overtrained. In that instance, take the day off and let your body recover.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

You've over trained.

When you don't feel like being there, it's your body telling your brain that you've over trained.

Take a day off or take it easy for a day or so. It's actually good for you ...
