"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I've found happy, upbeat music that automatically makes you feel good is the best. This is probably a song for younger guys, but my all-time favourite is

Ridin' Solo - Jason Derulo

The whole song is basically about how happy he is being single, the lyrics just make me smile. haha

Another one is New Girl - Newboyz

There's more I'm sure. Share any ones you have. :)
 

"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.

20 years ago I listened to Jim Croce's "Operator" for days on end after my gf of 4 years and I broke up. Don't do that!

Would recommend anything that goes well with working out, personally. In the past ive turned to alcohol and its awful. Focusing that energy on exercise is so much more productive ive found.

If you are asking because you just had a breakup, good luck to you and hope it passes soon.

Yep just work out like a mad man... It gets your mind off it and gets you prepared to catch the next prey
 

"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.

Well, if you are looking to reflect and perhaps cry in your privacy. I'd recommend good old Phil Collins' "Everyday" and "Do You Remember?"
