Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Business... Is Life... Is Women.... DJ's should be rich...

"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.

Not only do you learn social skills to the fullest extent, but you also learn 90% of the business tactics you're going to need in the real world. My sales job was like my college for me. College is more like a vacation than something to prepare me for life.
3 Years later, I'm in college with my own company.. I owe it all to getting into Sales.
"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.

The concepts of selling yourself are exactly the same because people buy products if they like the person too… the drive and motivation to resist knockbacks that DJs must also possess is key for sales because sales is never a 100% success rate…
But yea… the attributes that DJs learn are of great use in sales and life in general… as long as you realize that there is more to being a DJ than C&F…

get it straight - being AFC or DJ does not necessarily have anything to do with success in life.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

bill gates is AFC. napoleon was AFC. there are all kinds of UBER SUCCESSFUL MALES in the history of the world who not only were not DJ but not ALPHA!
as i've said elsewhere, ULTRA COMPETENCE or even EXPERTISE in a given area CAN MAKE YOU RICH. but such skill says nearly nothing about how you rate on the AFC - DJ scale.
most people here just have a ridiculous difficulty in saying that bill gates is AFC simply because they equate success with alpha and djness....
but the nerds in math and chess club in high school, these guys end up doing spectacularly well in certain fields.
bill gates IS afc ... ********

"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.

there are tons of guys, tons of AFCs whose problem exists in ONE AREA ONLY. they have their lives together, they are successful and good at what they do.
but... they can't get chicks to save their lives.
confidence in one area of life does not automatically or necessarily translate into another.
also, supreme confidence combined with absolute incompetence is one of the most entertainingly hilarious things you will ever witness.

Even people who go to good universities and have top professional jobs are still only considered upper middle class. Small Business owners are considered Lower Middle Class as a rule. You CAN be a millionaire when you are old, though...if you start putting $1 a day into a Mutual Fund from the time you are 18.
If you're lazy you will never be rich...sales is considered lower middle class as well. I'm studying social class and stratification in Sociology right now...well, last week. Tomorrow is my final. The top prestigious job in the US right now is lawyer. It's ranked higher than even a doctor. However, being a lawyer requires a lot of college. Better hit the books now.LAWYER said:
ANYONE can be a lawyer. Heck, go to your County (Courthouse) and I'm sure you will see a bunch of underpaid lawyers there.
All you need is an undergraduate degree on ANYTHING (music, English, Latin, History, etc.).
However, only a handful of people can be Engineers/Scientists/Physicists/Chemists/Geologies. And most are already from Non-U.S.A. nations.
In a nutshell...any good engineer can be a doctor (medicine) or a lawyer. But a great lawyer (or doctor) cannot necessary transition into becoming an engineer.
Engineers MUST have analytical mind. Hard core math/science. While Lawyers and Doctors only need the ability to read and memorize things.
Why is he a failure? He is married to a woman that is loyal to him. A woman that turned out to be the "CORRECT" woman in the essense that she has not divorced him and taken half of his fortune. A woman that literally supports his goals.Delta said:
If anything...Bill Gates is a clear indication of a man that has it ALL:

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
