"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 am curious as to why the IRS goes after individuals so rapidly but let construction companies and contractors slide under the radar?

I know several people who are netting over $100,000 per year but claim only $30,000 to $40,000. They write off and deduct everything and are getting rich because of this.

So many scammers getting rich!

....BTW i work in real estate and i'm freaking honest, as the consequences are not worth it to me!
 

"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.

Maybe because generally companies benefit the society more than the individual.

Because money talks.

Most companies are richer than most individuals, so if they want to hold off on payments they can, since they have the leverage to do so.

Money isn't talking b/c they are only reporting a fraction of what they are making. And these companies are small, as they employee less then 10 people.

On paper, individuals are obviously making more and paying more taxes; as opposed to the business owners i know.
