"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.

"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.

I have a home bussiness so its not as bad to be on the computer all the time but sometimes I can't seem to get off the computer either. You're not alone, you just need a dream.

i am kind of starting to feel the same way, i don't have too many problems but i think pulling the computer apart is something i might do (or take a vital component out and get rid of it) as i am spending a bit too much time on it. If i actually need to use it for work or study purposes later on i will still have it. this will probably be my last post on this site as i think it has served its purpose. so long.

I'm the same way. Don't dismantle your computer. Instead when ever your friends go out, have them drag you out with them. Eventually if you start going out a few nights a week you meet new people, and then you start to go out with them.

Rinse and repeat. Like another post said, the computer isn't your problem. Boredom is, find something to spice up your life.

On a side note, I've got to follow my own advice.

My computer is too useful to stop using, so i will only use for short periods of time. The internet is the only problem i sort of have.
 

"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.
