"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 think I'm getting stupider, is that possible? I have final exams next week and I can't concentrate, memorize, learn anything new. My brain has reached maximum capacity.
 

"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.

You just answered your own question with that statement.

Stop smoking dope maybe??:confused:

No I doubt you're a pot somker...I think. I use to smoke pot and the same kinda thing happened to me until I finally kicked the habit.

Otherwise, like what everyone else is saying, just take some free time to yourself, that usually clears out your mind and helps you focus in on your studies.

I also found that even though it may appear you aren't memorizing the information you're studying, your mind is still absorbing the information without you being aware that that's whats going on. I studied for numerous exams and went in feeling I was very unprepared because even though I studied my arse off I didn't feel that I had really absorbed the information. Then when I sat down and actually started readin the questions, things started clicking in my mind and the information just poured out on my exams.
 

"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.

Don't yank it. Masturbation depletes neurotransmitters which help you think.

masturbation is the cause of, and solution to all of mans problems.


or is that beer?

have a beer before you start studying, as opposed to a w*nk. that way, you'll feel like your at a rocking party and you'll associate studying as a good time, and you'll remember it better.


note: if this works, let me know :)

Yeah, I think it's possible to study yourself stupid. I've done that a few times myself. If you stare at your work long enough, it stops making sense. Step away from your studies for a while and come back to them later. In the meantime, do something relaxing, which will help clear your head.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
