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.
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.
What, deadlifts x 50reps? Why?Credos said:I wanna try some new exercises, so anybody who knows in which I could change these:
50x Deadlift @ 135lbs
50x KB Clean and Press @ 36lbs (KB must touch floor between reps)
and perhaps
50x Floor Wiper @ 135lbs
Low weights, but doing it a lot more, so that the muscles become used to the weights and grow more "Solid"...shaunuk said:What, deadlifts x 50reps? Why?
Well thats the main problem with the deadlifts, my back hurts like hell... thats why i wanted a new exercise.shaunuk said:You can replace deadlifts with rack deadlifts. Set the safety pins up in the power rack with a barbell on it such that the barbell is about 2" below your knee. Rack deads rely far less on the quads, hamstrings and glutes, but they're good for overloading the back (more weight can be used than floor deadlifts).

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.
