"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.

America is best
Happy birthday Marines, if any here. nov, 10, 1775, the Marine Corps was born, at tun tavern Philadelphia.

In the Marine Corps you never die, because even if your body dies, you live on in the thoughts and memories of your brothers.

One thing we used to chant is "shock troops, devil dogs, blood thirsty war machines, read to fight, ready to kill, ready to die but never will.

We used to chant this over and over, but we would go start as a whisper, the a little louder, and a little louder, then screaming it. That sh!t is motivating.

The Marine Corps infantry is a very masculine society. I feel proud to be a part of that.

and fvck it, here is the Marine Corps hymn.

God bless the Marine Corps.

From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli;

We fight our country's battles
In the air, on land, and sea;

First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze
From dawn to setting sun;

We have fought in every clime and place
Where we could take a gun;

In the snow of far-off Northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes;
You will find us always on the job
The United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps
Which we are proud to serve;
In many a strife we've fought for life
And never lost our nerve;

If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven’s scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By United States Marines.
 

"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.

Respect. The amount of manginas would decrease dramatically if every man served.

Much respect.

It should be mandatory 6 months to 1 year, after high school. Pick a service and you come out a man.

I wish serving would be mandatory for men for up to a year. Thank you for sharing.

Happy Veteran's Day, everybody.
 

"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.
