Alright dude, so I was talking to this girl named Nikki this morning in band. She opened me eventually and I started to do some shock and awe to raise buying temperature. I basically went "Wow, you're looking so hot today, I mean seriously why are you doing this to me women? Honestly though, do you expect guys not to be nervous around you when you flaunt it so much?" and she was like "Flaunting?" laughing and stuff. Then I teased her about looking at me a certain way and she's like "Well do you want me to stop?". Blah blah, so things are going well from there and as her buying temperature is raised, I escalate by putting my hand on her shoulder. We talk for a while after that, but then I put my arm around her and she's like "Remember, the boyfriend deal?" and I take my arm off and this is probably what killed the set, because she broke up with her boyfriend, so it was probably a sh1t test. After that the set slowly died.
"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.
