"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.

Since I really don't have anything to this holiday weekend, but would love some extra cash, I'm thinking of camping out this Thursday night at Best Buy in order to buy a good deal of hugely-on-sale goods, in order to resell them on Ebay.

Anyone tried this before? Any opinions?
 

"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.

An acquaintance of a friend of a friend of mine created this website: http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/

It has all the best deals you'll find on Black Friday. Yeah...check out the site and try to find the absolute cheapest/free stuff. You can make some quick cash, sure. I've done it. Although, not everything you buy will make you profit on eBay because stuff on eBay is already usually dirt cheap. Try to check out eBay before-hand to get a feel for what would sell good.

For example...I just checked out the site...and Gamestop will be selling GTA3 (PS2) for $2.99. It's selling on average at $4-$5 on eBay plus shipping. That's not a very good margin, unless you buy like 200 of them.

BUT, Grey's Anatomy Season 1 DVD will sell for $8.99 at Circuit City, and the average sale price on eBay is $17-$20. You buy a couple of those and make at least a couple bucks on each, not to mention profit on shipping as well.

Here's another I just found...19" Proview Widescreen will sell for $129 at Circuit City...and they've sold for up to $200 on eBay, plus shipping. That's over $50 profit a pop.

I've reached PowerSeller status on eBay strictly from buying and reselling - and can say that if you have the money to make some large purchases on Black Friday, it will definitely be worth your while. If you only plan on getting 1 or two things, don't even bother going... unless a $40 total profit justifies your going out there in the first place.

Here's the site I've used last year and this year to plan out my 'attack'.

Diablo -

I too have gotten the ebay bug in recent weeks. I don't have a lot of extra cash at the moment to go out and make a bunch of purchases on Friday so I wouldn't even mind settling for an extra $40.

So tell me, if you could buy only one or two items and wanted to make a profit, what would you recommend buying?

How about if I could scround up a C-note or two, what would be some good purchases?

I ask you as one ebayer two another, what do you think will have demand and will make me some quick cash considering I'm short on funds?

^ Amazon.com just sold 1000 Xbox 360 consoles for $100 a pop. My damn Internet connection was too slow to get in on it.

Hey diablo, do you know of any other sites doing deals like what Amazon did?
 

"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.
