"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.

"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.

Censorship sucks! Freedom of speech rules!
:up:

But again the issue is NOT that simple.
1) The chinese government is NOT a democracy, so censoring things that are deemed to be dangerous to the public doesn't really surprise me.
2) Sorry man, being chinese myself chinese, I know how Falun Gong or Falub Dafa operates. It's simply a cult. The traditional chinese Qi Gong is a very efficient way to exercise and to keep a good health. The founder of Falun Gong (the guru Li HongZhi)simply surfed on this wave and added some mystical religious sounding bullsh*t to it. Many people seeing that the mediatation and exercise part works (basically just Qi Gong) swallowed the whole mystical teaching and serve the master...
3) From a geo-politics point of view, the cult has received a lots of official and unofficial support from nations that are hostile to China for political activities, so it's NOT just about the cult anymore. Underdneath lays a vicious power struggle.
4) Don't believe that "democracies" are free of censorship. Living in France, just recently France asked the US service providers(starting by Yahoo) to censor access to some Nazi materials for all connections originating from France...

The world is not black/white and comes in all shades of grey...
:rolleyes:
