"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.

that scared feeling before you have a fight? I'm not about to get into a fight nor have I ever been in one but whenever someone's about to have a fight or something around me, my heart starts beating really fast. Is there a way to confront this and overcome it? I mean, when I'm sparring in the ring doing MMA I don't get that feeling, it's when I'm on the street it happens.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

What helps me: Assume the worst. Accept the fact that you or someone else could very easily die in a violent confrontation.

The key here is ACCEPT. "If I die, so I'm dead." The fear results from trying to bury those nasty thoughts.

Its normal Fight or Flight response. What you are feeling is a surge in your adrenaline levels which would make you stronger if you wish to fight and much faster if you wish to run.

The best way is to continue to take your MMA more seriously so that you will know how to handle yourself in every situation and thus you won't feel that adrenaline rush so much.

Thats what I was wondering to myself. Is this FEAR? or is it ADRENALINE? Because I everytime it has happened it wasnt something directed towards me, it was other peoples altercations. But just being there gave me that feeling. I don't feel scared and my mind is usually blank when it happens.

It is the feeling that makes hooligans fight as often as posible. The dangerous it is the stronger the feeling. Fight away. Forza Dinamo!
 

"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.

I thought that was a good feeling. Never thought fear had anything to do with it.
It's so powerful.

It feels fvcking good.

To me it just feels like a state of shock. Like your heart is screamin what's gonna happen? what's gonna happen? The first though that came to my mind is that it's probably some subconcious feeling of fear that arises in those moments. But it seems that it isn't.

Why do I get the feeling you have a criminal record?

Nothing serious. Cops only been involved a couple times.

I've never thought of it as a scared feeling, more the opposite.

My mind does not ask what will happen, it clears it completley and tells me what will happen. Me beating the other guy.
