"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"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.

one question before i begin.
Goal is to say hi to 50 strangers. But should they reply?
For example, am i done if i just say hi to 50 people and get like 5-10 of them saying hi to me, or i need to get them all to reply to me?

i'm confused :confused: .

Your goal is to make eyecontact with them then greet them...but sometimes, especially when your first learning they all won't go good and a lot of time its out of your control if they respond or not

but as long as you give it an honest effort its fine to count it. (even if they don't respond)

"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.

Week 1 Day 2

It's sunday... i woke up very late (about noon) and i spent something like 6 hours in front of computer...

The Weather wasnt really lovely today so i decided to stay home. Tommorow is a school day, i'll start "hellos" exercise.

I think that i should stop sitting in front of the computer, it eats up my time... I'm going to print this material out. I'll just go to a "Net caffe" every day and spend half an hour there just tu put up my reports.

and one more thing - NO MORE PORN. it's another fukking waste of time...


I have one more thing to say... I decided to try the gunwitch method at the same time while attending this bootcamp. I will probably fail, but anyway, it may happen to me to just overcome my fear overnight and get into a game directly :D .
