"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

"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.

You destroy brain cells doing anything, so yes, weights.

But worrying about that is like worrying about catching a cold from someone on the other side of the world because you're technically both breathing the same air.

Well beyond insignificant.

Nah, it's just the stereotypical image of bodybuilders being just macho meatheads, all brawn and no brain.

No truth in it whatsoever.

Having said that, do a widowmaker squat set with 150kg on your back and then you'll definitely be reduced to a gibbering moron ..

I think it's the other way around - you have to be a fool to start pumping iron :)

Definately not. Your only real chance of losing braincells, from lifting weights is, by missing the rack (When finishing a set) and instead dropping the bar on your head.

On a side note. WOOHOO!!! First post on this message board!!! :D
