"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.

Wondering what are some useful things to learn in life. Apart from your job, your day-to-day neccessities and social life. As I'm 21 now. I feel as if, theres so much to learn out there and would like to start early, anybody recommend something USEFUL?

What are some good LANGUAGES to learn. Spanish? German? or/ and French? As I like travelling/ Backpacking around Europe (Netherlands, Germany, France etc) and hope to travel around SOUTH AMERICA/ CARRIBEAN ISLES later on.

Or maybe even some SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY/ PSYCHOLOGY classes which can perhaps make you better with dealing w/ people in your curren job/ social life etc. Anything that can help you, grammar wise in typing. speaking and reading. I want to be a good story-teller oneday. As I hear its A MUST THING IN LIFE TO HAVE.

COOKING LESSONS? if you can cook already. You can spice up something abit different than the usual SPAGHETTI BOLOUGNE?

Just on those terms, nothing rocket science. Any LENGTHY suggestions will be appreciated, especially if you're undergoing anything now or have done. If there is a thread on this already, can I have the link as I can't find anything on it in the search engine - apart from some brilliant thread on "Things you wish you knew before you turned 25/30" - :cool:
 

"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.

If I could learn 1 thing it would probably be cooking or martial arts. I would love to be able to cook fresh pasta and my other favorite foods. Not only is fresh food delicious/healthy and better than premade stuff but women love a man that can cook for them.

Martial arts is self explanatory. Be able to defend yourself if push come to shove.
 

"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.
