"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.

I'm having a lot of trouble finding the time to do these assignments lately. I don't know about you guys but the weekend is really the only time I'm able to go out somewhere and meet some girls, and when that doesn't work out (like tonight) I'm left out to dry.

Is it possible to do this during the summer? It would be so much easier to go out and meet new people. I just feel like I'm going to get behind with these assignments as I've already been through my school and am currently sitting at home because I wasn't able to take the car to the mall while I'm invited to a party that I probably won't be able to go to due to the snowy weather.

Tell me how you guys feel, the bootcamp is a great idea but I don't know about its timing.
 

"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 live Southern Hemisphere, so this IS Summer for me.

Secondly, I am at a disadvantage because most of America is GMT -8:00 and Perth is +8:00. That means I effectively get most assignments 16 hours late, i.e. mid-morning Tuesday. At the earliest. I also just moved back here so I'm not going out on the weekends yet.

So even doing every challenge with six days in a place I just moved back to, I still manage. No excuses boys.

I also have troubles keeping up with the bootcamp sometimes with school. I agree that during the summer would be 10 times better, but I want to improve fast so it's alright. Lets not make any excuses.

I would not be okay with moving the boot camp to the summer.

I could do with having two weeks to each challenge, at the rate they're pushing me, but that's sort of a weak excuse.

I got a couple tonight, but this requires real effort.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

lol at the fact this week is your own challenge and you're getting pushed to hard. Wait til my week, 40 approaches and all of the must be full-closes in a row or you have to start again.

Also, your challenge is the only one so far to be there before school on Monday. Congrats (y)

I see why people may complain about it, but I figure nobody's required to do it. I'm trying to do it as best I can, but what with riots and the fact that cold approaches here are next to nil, I know it's not gonna be amazing.

That said, those in countries where cold approaching is much easier, i.e. Western countries - deal with it. I know that when I go home to Virginia this summer I'm gonna meet as many new chicks as possible.

But a 2 week period for each is not a bad idea.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

It'll be the same effect as in school, the urgency effect just wont be there, thus you will still procrastinate and have just as little time. However, if any leaders manage to work past this, and create a false urgency feeling, then Im for it.

lol youre a ****.

I picked my challenge to be specifically hard for me.

I don't know about this two week idea. I know I proposed it, but it seems lazy to me. The way each challenge is built is so that it can be completed in one week.
