"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.

Where ever I am
I had an interesting idea the other day. I was watching the 2nd matrix movie and was wondering why I thought the first fight scene (him vs. three agents) just looked so dam cool compared to the rest. I quickly realized it was beacuse everything seemed to be working for him. Everytime he got hit we would fly back kick off a wall and be straight back into it. Nothing they could do was takin him down, the system (or matrix in the movie) was 100% working for him.

By now your probaly thinking get to the damn point already. So I will.

Start to think and act like the world is 100% in your favor. If you walked off the edge of a cliff a bridge would appear. Everything that happends even when it's bad is helping you in some way. Nothing can harm you, everything is to your advantage.

How would you act?
How would you think about things?
How would this change you?
How would you live?
Think about it. Be about it.
 

"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.

Your drifting away from reality slap out of it!!!! Its a movie for godsake with a lot of twist and turn, alot of eye catching scenes a lot of fantasy. However I wouldnt compare myself to neo.(Not real! Hes an actor!) But hey if it works for you then Hooray!
 

"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.
