"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.

I just recently finished reading this book and I have mixed feelings. I have always had a hard time making money and coming up with great ideas. The author makes entrepreneurship and money making seem effortless. I am very average and really have no special skills.

I know some people who got rich virtually overnight with little or no work and i know others who have spent years perfecting his/her craft. Are some people naturals at making money? Do you need to have special talents or a great idea to make millions? How much does luck play into making it rich?

Any others have any feedback on this book?
 

"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.

it's easy to dream about making it big. of course your ideas work inside your own mind but what if your logic is flawed and you dump a ****load of investment into a bad prospect? i could write a book on how to become rich and i wouldn't even be lying after i sold a million copies :D

haha, that is exactly what i was thinking! I hope one day, i can experience the life of having money. I have educated myself and continue to do so, but being a part of the financial elite seems so hard to achieve.

How? Currently i am working on an ebook. I have yet to try ebay, but i don't have money to list a product and lose money if it doesn't sell. I am terrible at making money, so turning my mindset around has been difficult. Trust me though, i am trying hard!
 

"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.

your best bet is to go to school and work 40 hours like everyone else. If you come up with an idea during then, go for it but dont quit school.
