"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Anchoring certain gestures to positive emotion is done by doing a certain gesture whenever you feel an emotion you'd like to feel.

I do admit it kinda works, but we usually need our 'boost' when we're feeling down, no?

So when we keep summoning our best emotions when we're feeling down, wouldn't our anchor slowly associate to the negative feelings? I don't know, just a thought.

Are you anchoring the most effective things? There are tons of positive emotions; for example watching the opening credits to Spiderman-3 on it's opening weekend. A month later how do you feel about it?

You can't expect to anchor just any positive emotion. Get a real book about NLP and not just rely on Internet posts. It'll teach you the proper way to anchor experiences, even if they had never happened.

Stunning analysis. I'm sold.
You've got to be leary about anything that isn't "looks" based. :rolleyes:
 

"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.
