"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.

Because i remember seeing couple of AFC posts on the bible. I read a short post about "when a girl flakes on you, call and let her know that you're very upset, you're not going to accept that kind of behavior" and some other bullcrap that i don't remember. That sound very AFC to me.
 

"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.

I remember one of those DJ tips of the day (week) that actually covers that. If she flakes on you over the phone you respond immediately by calling her on her flaking and such, saying you don't put up with that crap.

The "call her back" implies perhaps she left a message? I wouldn't call her back if she didn't set a future date, because she obviously doesn't have high IL. I'm not sure if it's AFC, but it's surely not useful to anybody.

Though, what about the rest of the article?

I remember questioning a Pook post on why it is in there even. I think it is Keys to a Don Juan. It was just Kill that Desparation and Be A Man.

Some of the Bible quotes are bad but 95% are excellent.

It says
"This Bible is constantly updated by me, Nicholas Hill
Originally created by Neophyte"

yeah, some of the aticles in the bible are abit stupid & AFC, etc.

The Bible was made aaaagggeeesss ago when This place had few members & alot of the stuff was put in because there wasnt much else around.
The general ideas & philosphys of this site have evolved & developed since those original posts so some of it is irrelevent, But at the same time there are some truly amazing & life changing posts in there... like MINE!

Check out the Bible Summary I made!!!

Hi guys,

Since you've been arguing about the Bible and AFC stuff, I suggest you check out a post I submitted a few days ago. It contains an essential summary of the entire Bible, only the essence of almost every Bible thread.

The total length would be about 10 pages if printed (which I did) It's really a list of essential DJ traits and DJ ideas to keep in mind. Read it and it will give you a general overview of what a DJ is, which characteristics he has etc. It's pep talk that boosts you up before going into the field!!
Whenever I read it, it fills me with confidence.

I put a lot of effort in it, including reading the entire bible and extracting the essentials from it, taking notes and pouring them in an easy-to-read article.

I assure you: once you start reading, you get addicted and can't stop! Print it, read it from time to time, so you are constantly reminded of how to bring the DJ in yourself to the surface!

Trust me, it's definitely worth it!
