"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.

ok lately i was gettin a lil crazy, it can be described as extreme restlessness. I either really wanted to be with a girl (horny), or had a crazy hunger for violence. This kinda ruined my stability. I kept doing stupid things with girls, such as sending a emotional message which was totallllly afc.
so i relized i gotta get rid of this, IT WAS MAKIN ME TOTALLY AFC.

Working out usually cured it temporarily, which means it probably has to do with my idleness. Im currently in a situation where im stuck at home most of the time doing nothing important for the last 3 days. Turns out this was why i was gettin so emotional and lame lately and BAM i recently just found the cure.
since its sunday i have school tomarrow. i was only in school 2 outta the 5 days last week so i missed ALOT. so i started to study. BAM all of a sudden my restlessness disappeared!!! doing work and **** totally cured me.

so my advice to u guys is this. get hobbies and all sorts of stuff to keep u busy. stuff u enjoy and to be most efficient find some kinda goal u wanna accomplish and work for it. Accomplishing goals leads to confidence!

i also think this is why there are SO MANY KEYBOARD JOCKIES. sitting on the computer is extremly close to idleness. THis is probably making u more and more afc. Which cascades into u being to scared to approach and do stuff, or leads u to ****ing up with girls which makes u to insecure to do it again or something.

to all u keyboard jockies, stand up right now and do SOMETHING! anything that doesnt involve the computer, or video games!, u no u had stuff that u thut about doing but were to lazy to do. GO DO THEM NOWWW!
 

"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.

Invest in yourself. Material things and good fortune come to those who have self actualized.

great post man

when something is on my mind playing video games doesn't seem to do the trick, but I have find that going to the golf driving range with one of my friends helps out a lot.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

^ ur right TV AND GAMES ARE HORRRRRIBLE. almost 100% useless

but quick question. did u just start getting into the DJ community? cause for me i really cant learn much more from reading. I have reached the point where i can only really learn and improve from the feild.

be aware guys, u may be in this spot also but havent relized it or are denying it cause the feild is scary (which is why im still on this forum, its scary out there 100% alone lol)

I agree with challenger on this, browsing this site, etc leaves one with a wealth of knowledge, but like everything just reading is no use without practical experience.

I find TV actaully makes you lazy, for example if I first plonk down in front of the TV when I get home from work, I actually feel more lethargic/disenergized and don't feel like walking my dog/going to gym/etc. It actaully feels like it drains you more even though you are just staring at the box.
 

"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.

Get a job, and plan **** for your days if you don't have anyone to hang with make yourself comfortable doing things by yourself and having just as much fun. I can have just as much fun by myself as hanging with any of my bros. And when I am on my own I am more likely to try an pick up on girls i see at the mall, Gym, Restaurant. Also sometimes if i hang out with the some person over the course of a couple days i just wont call and i do my own thing. You need to learn how to rely on yourself for, Your own entertainment and fun and everything in life.
