"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.

Isn't everyone the same, really?

I've heard the stuff that "all women are the same", but if you think about it, isn't everyone the same?

I mean, we've got different wants, but our needs are really the same. Pleasure, ego, sex, etc (Maslow summed this up pretty neatly).

I'm not a psychologist, so I can't really verify this with hard scientific facts. But I've simply noticed recently everyone around me seems to be behaving in a madly similar manner.

Anyone also noticed this, or am I going crazy?
 

"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.

We're based on the same kind of atoms, have about the same ratio of carbon to oxygen and hydrogen, we look the same and our genes are close.

Nope, never noticed it, lol
