"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 was just curious. I walk pretty much six days a week back and forth to school and work for several miles and then hop on buses and trains to get around in the city. Those of you who've been working out for quite a while, do you think regular walking, (if you haven't done much cardio in a while) is good for your heart as well and can help prevent heart disease? How about if you go to the gym at least three days a week to lift weights and work out without necessarily doing cardio...is that any good for your heart either?

Well, to an extent.


But to answer the question, yes, walking is good for your heart. It builds up your cardiovascular strength which will cause you a butt load fewer problems than you would if you never exercised. Plus, you won't get winded walking up the stairs.

Walking has been shown to cause certain types of cancer in lab rats and should be avoided at all costs...... Or maybe that was tobacco

"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.
