"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.

Can someone help me with this please?...I'm in advanced P.E. ok ...we run the half mile every day, and it's pretty hard for me. I don't smoke or anything, even the smokers get ahead of me. I'm not a fat guy or anything ...It just seems like I don't have enough lung capactiy. Does anyone know why? Kids tell me they run 13 laps easy in football training. I couldn't even imagine I could do that. My shins start to hurt very bad..my feet cramp up and my thighs kill me, most of all I could barely breath when I run for a lot of time. And No I dont have asthma. Help me if you can, thanks.
 

"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.

You are having problems running because your body isn't used to it. Everybody else has probably done alot of running throughout their life or atleast played some sports. You on the other hand, have done nothing but sit on the couch.

How do you know you don't have asthma? Get a 2nd opinon, that's what it sounds like.

If not, run more, your probably just not used to it, drink lots of water too.

We need some stats - body weight and height.

Also, are you a good sprinter?

I am 5'11 155 pounds, and have been doing road racing for the past 5 years. It took me that long to figure out that endurance events isn't my sport.

Now I'm doing track racing (sprinting) and absolutely killing everyone on the short distances.

It pretty much depends on your muscle type. You either have a high percentage slow twitch (which utilises oxygen, and should be able to keep you going for hours) or fast twitch (for sprinting - couple of seconds to 1 minute).

Also find out if you don't have asthma. But it sounds very much like my situation.

If you find you're a sprinter, don't sweat it. Work on it and forget the long distances (until you're over 30, when your body will start getting more endurance based anyway).

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
