"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.
Help with school project. Ice cream over popsicles.

"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.
1. Popsicles were accidentally invented by an 11 year old boy.
2. Popsicles are messy and sticky.
3. When you finish eating a popsicle you have to deal with that annoying stick.
4. Popsicles are killing the environment because of those wooden sticks.
5. If you buy ice cream you're supporting the economy (when you buy from specialty shops and franchises)
6. Ice cream is more fun (you can add your own stuff, i'd like to see you try and add chocolate syrup to a popsicle)
7. Ice cream is more diverse. There are so many different flavors and things you can do with it.
Anyone got 3 more???

You can't just eat one bite of a popsicle
You can't take a date to a popsicle shop
You have to hurry and eat a popsicle before it melts, ice cream you can just leave in the bowl and eat it whenever
there's no such thing as a popsicle truck
If you buy a carton of ice cream and it melts on the way home from the store, it's no big deal. However, if you buy a box of popsicles and they melt, you're totally screwed
