can you drop a foot-square white pine board and break it ("with the grain") with a punch? Can you drop a coin, draw a pistol from concealment and fire before the coin hits the ground? A lot of women like having a "man's man", and men dig this sort of stuff, a lot. Yet it's pretty simple to build this sort of speed, actually. It just takes determination and a few months of spare time, a few minutes per day.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
how fast are your hands?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

i feel like my piano playing/practice I probably do have faster hands than the avg person does. once you start getting into advanced licks /chord progeessions, espeically wtih jazz.
also feel I am more creative than the avg person, something I think that this has alot to do with as well. i have been playing the piano for 2 deacdes and to this day can't read sheet music. i play the violin and can read trebble clef for the violin like i am reading this post, but never bothered to learn for the piano. but if i don't have perfect pitch it's pretty damn close, if i hear something a few times i can generally play what i hear to the key, but what i usually do is is just to use a song as a baseline to **** around with various chords. very erroll garner eque, i rarely play the same thing if ever twice.
lol one of my wife's biggest pet peeves of mine is whenever i hear a song i have never heard before, or hell just a song in gneeral i break out my imaginary piano and start playing it without even thinking about it, it's out of habit now. she thought i was full of ****, about 6 months after i met her she bet me basically a really good home cooked meal of whatever i wanted i coudldn't play the next song that came on the radio, and it was a jazzed up version of John Brown's Body which I nailed in about 10 mintues after hearing it a few times. I mean, not to the extent that oscar peterson nailed it make no mistake, you will never mistake me for oscar peterson, there are things he can do on the piano i just physically can't do yet ("with his hands) is i but i nailed it nevertheless. talk about floored lol.
one of my goals one day is to put out a CD of me playing christmas jazz music. i don't give a **** if i sale one copy lol. i have talent, just so i can say i did it.

Lovin your attitude, I feel like the essence of a man can be found in his legacy. Whether it's physical (a book, CD, some kinda product) or something of intellectual value like a unique philosophy, discovery or skill that he can pass on to others in and beyond his life's boundaries.backbreaker said:one of my goals one day is to put out a CD of me playing christmas jazz music. i don't give a **** if i sale one copy lol. i have talent, just so i can say i did it.
Btw, stop comparing yourself with Oscar Peterson. :crackup:
There's a couple of people with maybe 10 percent of his talent making a decent living off of their talent. There's ALWAYS room for original, hard-working people.

Seriously do that backbreaker. I had been meaning to put together a CD since 7th grade or so and I kept putting it off. When I finally actually finished it in 2008 (like almost 10 years later), it was totally worth it. By then I had a band I we sold 50 copies (woohoo).backbreaker said:one of my goals one day is to put out a CD of me playing christmas jazz music. i don't give a **** if i sale one copy lol. i have talent, just so i can say i did it.
But it wasn't those 50 copies that made it great... it was the fact that I had a CD that I was 100% responsible for. It was a tangible expression of my work.
Seriously, do it.
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

lol i wasn't trying to, just that the particular song was played by Oscar Peterson, and when I said i nailed dit i didn't want to make it sound like i nailed the song in the sense that he nailed it, and could lay the song verbatim as he could, because i can't.HoneyHitter said:Lovin your attitude, I feel like the essence of a man can be found in his legacy.

I wrote Paladin Press's best selling book, a little how-to pamphlet entitled. HOW TO MAKE A SILENCER FOR A .22. It has made them millons of $, sold over 1/2 million copies since 1994, but unfortunately, I took an immediate, small "lump sum" because I was desperately in need of cash. I'd now be making 20k a year off of that book, had I kept the rights to it. Sheesh, makes me puke to think of it.
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
