"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.

Death and guilt

Hopefully, this post might inspire people to avoid my mistake.



As I grow older I am seeing more and more people pass-which would make sense obviously.

Still, I keep dropping the ball. I hear about someone sick and keep telling myself I will visit. Then bam the die before I get to see them. Then I end up feeling like sht because I didn't take action.

I feel guilty that I didn't go see them and have the last '"peace" talk.

For what it is worth.

Peace
 

"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.

death is the ultimate mind f*ck. no one likes to confront death.

when we lose someone we care about all our false illusions about what life is about come crashing down.

you're probably avoiding these people because subconsciously you don't want to face death and visiting this people and seeing death in action scares the sh*t out of you.

I have lost plenty of people that were close to me to death. Its fvcking sad for us that have to live life without them. After a while you start to realize that in life there is alot of suffering. But there is nothing we can do, just hope that they are in a better place.

I am not afraid of too many things but death is probably my biggest fear.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

boy you said it, at least it seems like this for those of us that get left behind.

however, i hear that the actual process of death (feeling the ultimate warmth and love and bright light that surrounds you) for the person that is passing.

Yet people are more afraid of public speech :confused:

People in general are weird and unconvential. Exploring their nature is what makes life so cool to me:up:
