"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.

"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.

"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.

It's funny as hell. This is my favorite quote:

"I immediately walk over and point out my cousin to Fatty, and she almost
knocks me and a random girl over to get to him and give him a
hug. He gives me a look of, "I ****ing hate you, and hope you
immediately die an agonizing death."


Priceless. If any of you brothers want a pdf copy shoot me an email address.

One more I would strongly suggest to have on hand (and then in mind) is Doctor Paul Dobransky's: King, Warrior, Magician, Lover. It explains succinctly the temperament / relationship between the sexes.

I love psychology. If you can't get it off of Amazon I have the e-book.
 

"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.

The two books that have changed my life big time this year, and they aren't like your run-of-the-mill self-help books too :)

Think Like A Champion - **** Devenzio

This is an awesome inner game book for athletes. I picked it up when I was going through a tough and frustrating time while playing sports. I wasn't getting along with my teammates and I wasn't getting much playing time either. This book offers advice for these kind of situations. Covers a wide range of topics like trash-talking, politics, leadership, frustration, being a good teammate, and pride in sports. The section about 'acknowledging your fans' had me awestruck when I first read it.

The Dharma of Star Wars - Matthew Bortolin

Some people don't take Star Wars seriously, which is fine. But for those who do, the reward and insight is invaluable. This book talks about the Buddhist elements in the two Star Wars trilogies. I have read so many self-help books and I can say that none of them made me aware of the importance of compassion and not attaching myself to anger or resentment. I am thankful that this book did. Reading this book has lead me into a deeper interest in these themes occurring elsewhere too. For instance, the Matrix trilogy has very similar themes of compassion over hatred... peace over war. It's very fascinating.

"I hope they serve beer in hell", written by Tucker Max, is a collection of hilarious, unbelievable stories of a guy's own self-indulgence coupled with his exploits of the female gender....but it's more than that. Really, it's about attitude, confidence, being a man, not taking yourself(or anyone else) so seriously, having fun, and doing things the "Tucker" way(of course we all aren't naturally like him, but his stories just make you want to say "fvck it....I don't care what anyone thinks!"). At least, that is what I got from it!

Pretty much nailed it. If you want anymore info, here's the intro to his book.

"My name is Tucker Max, and I am an *******.

I get excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregard social norms, indulge every whim, ignore the consequences of my actions, mock idiots and posers, sleep with more women than is safe or reasonable, and just generally act like a raging ****head.

But, I do contribute to humanity in one very important way. I share my adventures with the world."

Get The Way of the Peaceful Warrior. I haven't read it myself but I did recently see The Peaceful Warrior and supposedly it's only 2/3 of the book. It was amazing. Everyone should see it.
 

"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.
