"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.

I'm sure that some of you guys are in the same position as me in that working can seriously fvck up my diet.

I wanna get some ideas together of suitable foods (preferably high protein) to take to work. I have just been taking biscuits etc but i wanna scrap that cos they're sh!t for my diet (plus everyone nicks them).
The only ideas i've got at the mo are fruit (although not high protein), cheese sandwiches and yoghurts (both better for protein but still not great) or actually take my whey powder.

So what other ideas have you got? Or what sort of food do you take to work?

By the way, my workplace hasn't got microwave/fridges/freezers available for food so it needs to be stuff that doesn't require any of these.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

You can buy a mini cooler that's about the size of a lunch box. Get an ice pack and it keeps everything cool for the better part of the day. This way, you can pack some good food that won't spoil.

My favorite easy to make/good for you sandwhich is this:

- 2 slices of high fibre, 100% whole wheat bread. (shop around, there are some really healthy breads out there...find the one with the highest fibre content/calorie ratio.... keep an eye on the amount of sugar in it, too...the lower the better

-1 slice of fat free cheese

- 1 TBsp Helman's Low Fat Mayo

- 4 Slices of Fat Free turkey, cut from the Deli Counter at your local super market.

Eat that with a tall glass of Skimmed Milk, add in an apple and maybe a handfull of almonds, and you got yourself a filling meal that will keep you energized for a good long while.

You can stick to your diet, regardless of where you work...or what your schedule is like. You just need to be dedicated to preparing ahead of time, and not taking the easy way out (fast food junk)
 

"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.
