"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.

I had an interesting incident with my internal clock today, but first a little background info. Im a university student, and because of my schedule i am allowed to go to bed around 2-3 am, and wake up around 11-12 am. So today i had a 40% midterm in one of my classes. I set my alarm for 6:45 am so i could get up early and review. I go to bed and, roll over in the morning and see my clock reads 8:00 am. My alarm on my phone had frozen, yet i still was awake in time to write my exam. Any other day i would still be in the middle of a deep sleep, but thanks to my internal clock it knew something was wrong and woke me up in time. I haven't googled the scientific reasons behind this, but i have encountered this countless times, and just wanted express how happy i was that we have this ability.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Haha the exact same thing happened to me about a week ago. Went to bed too late, had my exam at 10:15 AM. I set my alarm for 8am, woke up, turned it off and stayed in my bed too long, and fell asleep again. I woke up, and I thought to myself " Ok I'm fvcked...". Glanced at the alarm, 9am, when I was expecting 1pm. Pretty amazing stuff.

Wtf that's just luck....waking up 1-2 hours after you hit the snooze button isn't an internal clock...

Get a dog,then you know what an internal clock is. Everday day at 6:15-6:30 they wake me up to let them out to pee. Doesn't matter what the weather looks like,how bright it is outside or the time of year.
