"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.

Hey guys. I`m not sure weather its just in my country or around the world, but it is women who should extend a hand for a handshake. But I was thinking... if I choose to broke a savoir - vivre rule for my idea of what I want, its for the better that I dont care for such rule and want to initiate phisical contact (instead of waiting/relaying on her to do it or not)

Heres the situation, in short: Nearby place I live a nice gal moved on, I know nothing of her, but we are just givin ourselfs "hi"s the few times we met on our ways homes. During next "hi" I want to introduce myself, like "hi" - "hi, and by the way I`m Cyledehysp, and you?" and extend a hand for a handshake and initiate first contact with that once stranger. And also I plan a little convo for a warmup, like repeating her name aloud and with a certain playfull tone and look on my face, and saying if she only knew my damn memory for names! (I know myself and how I can say it to make it cool, and sparkle smile to her, etc)

So anyway, how does bending savouar - vivre rule to initiate handshake kino, with smile and EC sounds? And next time we`ll see it will be easy to chat up bout something and go from there if I like it. I think its a nice idea, but want to know your opinions guys.
 

"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.

I think you think too much.

If you really want to master this stuff, you need to step away from the details and learn to see things in the bigger perspective. I mean, it's hard to realize how a building looks if you are constantly 30 cm away and study all the bricks in it. However, if you step back and see it then you will realize the certain funtions of each part of the house in a way you could never do the other way around.

Wait with the techniques for a while.

How insightful.

Cyle is obviously an intelligent chap who just needs to stop analysing and it will begin to flow. It's a Zen thing.

Are you by any chance being a bit sarcastic? :) It`s hard to tell for me, there are no winky-smiling-faces in there but that "how insightful" got me thinking... oh wait, were I suppose to STOP analising? :crackup:


But anyways, are you saying give the thinking a lil stop and just to continue to became a better person, and when I`ll met her, or any other nice babe, let my instinct (empowered a bit by dj perspective) do the job, allow myself to be a men? And not get in trap of considering too much what my outcome will be, cause it really doesnt metter, it will all be just another girls on my path, live and learn right?
 

"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.

Its a very common way to greet someone, you should have done this the first time you met her.
