"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 wish I would never fail at anything ever again.

Is this even possible? From a success standpoint, it looks like there are people who do so. Randal on the Apprentice, for example.

Are successful people just better at picking their challenges, or do they never fail regardless?
 

"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.

Get real. Thats not possible. The only thing you can do is learn from your failures so as to succeed in the future.

I think that would be really boring too.


On a side note, I'd wish that nobody ever again has one of their wishes come true. Mwahaha!

Mistakes are an essential part of life. From errors we all grow to become better people.

Also let me add that no one is perfect. Everyone has their flaws and makes their mistakes. The ones who make it seem like they don't just handle their losses well and are adiment about not making those mistakes again.

That's an odd wish. Sounds to me like you've never actually learned from your mistakes or failures before. Either that or you can't seem to connect learning with failure.

You see, there's always two possible outcomes when you talk about success. Failing or never failing. Regardless of what you might believe, you do not have total control over incidences that causes you to fail or succeed. What you can do is control your response to failure or success. You can choose to pick yourself up in times of failure or keep staying down. You can choose to become a spoilt egotistical 'brat' in times of success or be modest and respectful.

If it's one thing you have to understand, it's the fact that the only thing you hae control over is your actions and thoughts. Don't go dreaming about external things falling into place so nicely for you.

Most successful appear perfect because they don't tell you about their failures.

When Donald Trump made his first million, he probably didn't let anyone know he screwed things up 100 times beforehand.

The only way to never make mistakes is to never try.
 

"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.
