"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Anyone have any tips on creativity and learning to be more creative? Not necessarily along the lines of painting or music or anything like that, but just in everyday life. Has anyone seen the movie "Airplane!"? That was a ****ing funny movie...every joke was completely random and unexpected, and it probably took incredible creativity to write something like that. Maybe what I need is more imagination...but I'm not sure where to start.
 

"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.

unplug the tv and trow it out the window.

next, find a nearest library adn get your self some funny books (no not comics). BOOKS FORCE YOU TO IMAGINE THINGS; the enviroment, the people, situations..... and there for you develop you imagination (i'm starting to do this, my brain turnd to mush in last couple of years...)

humour comes in all forms, so try to develop your own kind of humour. creativity is a big part of humour. how to be creative, is just you working your brain at it. workout that grey matter.

Creativity only comes from inspiration as far as I'm concerned.....find something that inspires you and use it for motivation in your daily life

P.S That is a GREAT Emerson quote.....it's quickly becoming my mantra
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
