"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Hey everyone. Im 22 years old and still in college even though I should have done with it in May. I got lazy and behind. The thing is I never had a job before nor an interview so I am very behind. I changed my major into finance b/c i messed up in my other majo.


I am taking classes back in August in my 5th year so I really dont know what I am getting myself into. Taking finance classes but no idea where I am going. To any finance major graduates or finance majors, where do i begin? Obviously, most ppl would say go find an internship but what kind of internship am i looking for? I feel horrible about myself b/c I dont even know how to use microsoft excel or powerpoints even though i done projects before. Usually it was someone in my group who done it.

Is it good to look for banking or investing? I heard about hedge funds but all of this i know completely nothing about b/c i only taken one finance class only.

Anyone can help ? thanks.
 

"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.

You should be getting all the answers you need in your school. Talk to your teachers, or counselers, or better yet someone who has actually made it in the real world doing finance or whatever you are aiming at.

Your still better off then me because the only job that I have ever had was mascotting work at my university for real jobs.

I'm a philosophy major and there is no internships that you can get for that major.

What kind of volunteerism/not-for-profit work have you done?

get a job as a teller and get into the college of business and take finance courses.

hedge funds are for ivy-leaguers. And learn excel and powerpoint. I'm sure your local community college teaches those courses.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
