"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

E-lie's 5 recession proof jobs

"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.

We haven't felt any of the sting from recession in the entertainment industry. 40 plus million tourist from all over the globe means our money pours in regardless of what happens with the US economy. Projects city center and Echelon (the largest independantly funded construction projects in american history) are still on pace to be done by 2010, and since i'm in good company with the execs from my company, it's fair to say my job and wealthy security is more air tight then a vaccum chamber.

I work for MGM Mirage smart guy. If I wanted to transfer to the Macau property I could. Still, You don't know what you're talking about. We don't build multi billion dollar properties because we're going to lose money. Our corp sector keeps us in the black year round.

Re:

No job is 'recession' proof. However, a person CAN be.

Someone may say...'technology isn't recession proof.'

Not true. While gf's father has been laid off, as a top-ranking Director/VP at the IT level, he grabs a new job quickly, and makes enough money that he has stockpiled funds to hold him over. He would be laid off or have a division whacked, and grab a new job making more, simply because "there's fewer jobs at the top."

If anything, GOOD accountants/lawyers/doctors are recession proof. Will they see a decline in income/clients, as GOOD as they might be? Sure. Even if you're making big money, when times fall hard, a good portion of anyone's client base CAN be subject to those people who become penny pinchers and do irrational things. Those who prepare and plan, won't suffer a pull back, though.

Listen to Jim Rohn on this or ready "Four Hour Work Week." Even in 4 hour work week, the author points out how empy it is at the top and how there's little jockeying for positions when compared to middle class and lower class levels.

People who see to find a cushy job get lulled into a false sense of security and don't grow.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"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.
