"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.

I've been in a slump for the longest time. Although, I am realizing what my problem is. If somebody calls me weird, I let it get to me. Now, in the end it doesn't matter, what people think, but what I think. That is the D.J. mindset. You have high respect for yourself. If somebody makes fun, of you, and you don't let it bother you, that makes it go away.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

One of my drunk-ass buds said it best... "Is there anyone in here you honestly give a fvck about?!"...while he was wearing a rasta wig with fake dreadlocks and an inflatable sheep duct-taped to his waist at a bowling alley. :crackup:

Honestly, nearly all really cool people just don't give a sh!t. You think Robert Plant was self-conscious of his borderline-fruity getups and leather pants tight enough to leave a d!ck print? Hell no, and that guy saw more pvssy than most gynecologists ever have.
