"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.

Just have to be careful on teas to check if there is any caffeine on it. That case would be better no caffeine teas.
Well actually tea contains a different type of it usually called "Theanine" and the amounts is so small that you would need to drink several loads of tank trucks to receive any effect and/or getting addicted to it. It don't think it is even possible. You would need to drink a insane amounts of tea to even get close to the effect you have from just one cup of coffee.

Found this about the subject of tea too:

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

StarZucks is bad for you mate. These fking coffeeshops are overpricing their products with at least 200-400 %.
We have the same in here in both Sweden and Denmark. The local coffee shop around the corner where I live charges a whopping 4.23 USD just for a Croissant; let me repeat that just ONE freaking croissant.. and all the other food and beverage prices are totally crazy too of course.

Now If you go to the baker on the other corner of the same street, you can basically buy the same croissant for 0.60 USD.... which says a lot about how greedy these coffeeshops are.

The best test to do on it is to stop for some days and check your cravings on it. If you can control and not feel any cravings for 7 days at least than its really not a problem and the amount is not big enough to take you back to the addiction.

Just be careful to some matcha teas, cause it seems they are high in theines/caffeine. I tried it for a time and I observed my intake rising and anxiety gone high again. Not had that bad crash like coffee but I saw it was not a good idea for me.
 

"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.

Its virtually impossible to have cravings for tea or/and get addicted to it.
Never had it and probably never will. I just drink it occasionally when I feel for it. :)
Thats good! :)

What teas do you usually drink? When I drink some usually it is chamomile or sweet herb that have some calm down effects.
