"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.

If you were to write a girl a check, which type of bank should it be?

Today I went to some products store for skin cream. The lady actually had me sit with her 1 on 1 and she tried a free sample around my eye.

But how much did it cost. $500. They'll say it costs $1000 but there is a discount today 50% off and you can get this 2nd product and another gift for free.

So, I didn't want the product. Eventually left... But I'm thinking maybe I should have taken out a checkbook and offer to write her a check, for, say $100, for this nice service.

I wouldn't ask her for her name. I would write a check for $100, sign it, and say you can just write your name on it...

So, my question is, if you were to write a woman a check (for whatever reason), should the check be from a bank like

1: like Chase bank, where the savings rate is .01%.
2: like Capital 1 or Marcus by Goldman-Sachs, where the interest rate is 4.35% or 4.4%.

Which bank sounds more attractive?

#1 are really big banks, #2 are more medium-sized banks that offer HYSA (high-yield savings account).
 

"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.

Not a sperm bank, especially if you've been exclusive with this broad for a few minutes or more. Our courts have an unsettling habit of deeming men liable for kids we didn't ourselves sire, just because some floozy thinks we need to throw a few bucks her way

This sounds like a new method of pick up, the tester sample... Bro, get a small bottle of face cream and try asking some women if you can put it on their face
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

What was the name of the poster that thought he was a messiah and wanted to start a religion? Kind of feels the same…
