"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.

"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.

First I suggest you try this for spinning rides;

1 - Stand up near your bed.
2 - Spin. That's right! Turn round and round!
3 - Do it as fast as you can. Now try to stand.
4 - You should fall to your bed and feel like you want to vomit.
5 - Ok, that's for spinning rides, time that by 10.

For speed rides you should find a really long slide, as high as you can, make sure it's wet so you slide down fast with no control.

Time that by 100.

Eeeek! Let's just say I hate roller coasters.

Dude, you'll have a blast. Roller coasters are kick-ass.

Start with the biggest, baddest coaster there, and sit in the front. Make it a test of your manhood. If you can face that, then you'll know you can face anything else in the whole park, and you'll have a great time.

I'm terrified of heights and falling -- that's why I love roller coasters. It's a chance to play chicken with fear and make fear blink first.

"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.

Agreed. I remember watching a documentary about roller coasters a few years ago and it said that your 9X more likely to do die in a car wreck then you are to die on a roller coaster. So just remember the drive to the roller coaster is actually more dangerous then the roller coaster itself.

First time I road a roller coster I was 16 and I was terrfied still. I was about to back out right before I got on, then a 5 year old that was getting on looked at me funny so I got on. So just look at all the kids 2-3 feet tall getting on and it'll make you feel a lot better.

And that's probably closer to 9,000 times more likely to die in a car wreck then a roller coaster...
