"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.

consider being a mercenary, 150k a year.

is the figure that I've seen tossed around, but they wont take you, typically, until you've had 3-4 years of infantry expericence in the Army or the Marines. Still, 150k can retire you in the USA, if you know how to invest it, and you should have saved another 30k in those 3-4 military years, too. It's something that a lot of high school guys should consider, for sure. The GI bill will pay for your college, too, to a certain extent, at least.
 

"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.

Depends on the person.

Talked to some guys who have done sanctioned/sponsored/ordered killings.

It affects everyone differently. Some people have no problem with it, others get PTSD and suicide a few months later.

I am a military guy would you be willing to kill your own guys? As in your fellow countrymen and veterans? If so then this job would be for you theres no loyalty other than the dough. I did my four years active USAF and I am going guard in the USAF. If you do enlist remember this there are no guarantees in the military!
 

"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.

An M4 with an Eotec holographic site, Surefire lighting system, flip up iron sites and all the other goodies will run you over 2K.

Oh, and a subscription to Soldier of Fortune magazine I'd guess will be 20-30.00 bucks per year.

Just sayin'

I'm talking about Blackwater, or the equivalent, in Afghnistan. you won't be fighting US troops, you'll mostly be bored from sitting around guarding something. If you think a give situation is too risky, don't sign up for it, that's all. When you are in the military, refusing an assignment is going to get you sent to Leavenworth.

the military will issue you your rifle, etc, and you save your money while in there. the contractor will arm/equip you, too, it's usually not feasible for you to travel with such armament, not on commercial airlines. the contractor might bring over many of you at a time, on a leased jet, tho, so it's feasible that then you might bring your own gear.
 

"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.
