"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.

I remember BBB posting a thread called "I won." and it was about him accomplishing many things. Its very insprirational you should read it if you have not.

The reason I mentioned that is because today I thought to myself..."I've won"

Let me explain....

I had been flirting with a girl for awhile and she had been flirting back with me..yada yada yada. Anyways, today I decided to ask her out. Right off the bat that little voice inside of me was making excuses. Finally I just told the little voice to f*ck off, and to tell you the truth it felt pretty d@mn good. :)
The girl told me that she didn't know what she was doing tomorrow, so I told her I would ask her tomorrow when she knew.
She will probably make an excuse, then again she may say shes free.

Does it matter? To a degree yes, but whatever happens nothing can change that I WON.

This was my first actual face to face approach. So I was basically scared sh*tless. :p

It was a war that was rageing inside of me. Just like there's a war rageing inside of everyone thats a member of this place and the world for that matter.

There's lots of different wars, lazyness, shyness, math, just to name a few.

I encourage you to fight and win those battles because once you WIN the war, your want to make war with other parts of territory in your life that you want control of.

And when you do go into battle, go in with your guns blazing, because a true soilder doesn't run away.

I wish you all the best of luck in your battles.

I leave you with these quotes....

In war there is no prize for the runner-up
--General Omar Bradley

It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.
--General Douglas MacArthur

The purpose of all war is ultimately peace.
--Saint Augustine
 

"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.

"Fvck off, fear, fvck off"

Wow, you use the same technique I use to tell fear to "Fvck off".

I used it on this very good looking girl (HB 8) in my math class. I used a throw away comment something to the tune of "I just want to tell you that you are one of the most beautiful woman in the classroom." I got the this response from her "huh... um...(face turning bright red then different shades of red) You don't mean that do you." I then gave her my IM account but did not sign on. Her interest shot up in me like a rocketship. Then I got a date to the semi-formal. But not to stray to far from fear but the entire time I was saying "Fvck off, fear, Fvck off" After doing this I felt so damn good after doing it because "I won". (I did not go the whole way because fate would have it that she had a boyfriend. damn)
