"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.

Is being a volunteer fire fighter and bringing it up during a gambit or routine a good idea for a DHV Spike? (provided you are one)
 

"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.

A lot of cousins and family are firefighters and lets just say they all do well..

My cousin who just turned 21 and works in the city walks into the bar with his Chicago Fire Department tee shirt on and the best looking girls in the bar storm his ass. He doesn't even have to open.

I am also in the process of becoming a FF. I'm going into paramedic school and just waiting until I am 21 though to start testing in the city.

It's a serious DHV, but I don't know why you want to be a volunteer FF with no aspirations of becoming a career FF.

OK but be aware that you have to go into burning buildings.

I hate people who name drop **** or say things they accomplished when it's not related to the conversatioin at all.

I'd have to say this is a bad idea, unless you're really suave about it. I would just consider it bragging. It's like people who talk about money, or their possessions, just to brag ya know.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

For a fact, i know this is a DHV after using it as a gambit on a story to not come off as just saying that i do it.

And i do have aspirations of becoming a doctor, but before that I'd like to get a job as a firefighter and do college at the same time.

Be a firefighter to be a firefighter... Being something for the specific purpose of attracting girls is pretty weak and feminine behavior.

On the other hand, if being a volunteer firefighter sounds appealing to you, then go for it :)

Remember, don't brag about you being a volenteer fire fighter. When, she asks what you do. Then, you can say that.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
