"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.
Bush cares about the black people

"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.

Well, if you look at Bush's actions, he has hired and appointed more Blacks to positions of power than any other President in history.
Condeleeza Rice, Colin Powell and not to mention Hispanics like Alberto Gonzalez to the position of White House attorney.
Action speaks louder than words.

Rice and Powell were kind of already in the White House, but yeah... I guess you could say that.

Just click and laugh along!
(btw: I am pro Bush; you didn't need to tell me that
"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.

Splitting hairs yeah? Granted he gave them higher positions, but they were already in the White House. If it tain't broke there is no reason to fix it.
Okay, so he gave them 'higher' positions... should we give him a scooby snack?
Saying that Bush is a racist because the large majority of people that were stranded by the hurricane were black is pointless, but saying, "Look... Rice and Powell are getting bigger paychecks now because of Bush... and he even hired a Latino." is equally pointless.
As a upper-middle class black man, I understand that it's not 'black' people he doesn't give a **** about... it's poor people.
Those tax breaks of his have been doing me and my family just fine.
