"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.

Is there a such thing as too much confidence?

Many people here have low confidence, me on the other hnd, struggle with too much.
Like I'm humble to a point and ill help people and all, but sometimes I feel like I'm better than others and I don't want to be like that.

Whats scary is I don't have much to base the confidence on.. I'm not rich, not in elite shape, 23 and basically still a freshmen in my on again off again college career..so what if I do achieve something big?
Will I become a *******?


I find chicks trying to do to me, what you do to chicks ..
Neg me, tell me im arrogant..

The only concern is will I become a bad person?
should I embrace it or fight it?
Is my gift in life uncanny confidence? Thoughts?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

No such thing as too much confidence, if it's ACTUALLY confidence and not just baseless arrogance. You can think you're the sh!t all day long, but if you don't have much going for you (or veritable display of potential), you'll only get so far.

If you're unattractive, out of shape, and still live with your mom at 30 working minimum wage ... good luck, regardless of how "awesome" you think you are.

And don't worry "achieving something big". It's not just going to drop in your lap, you're going to have to bust your ass for it.
