"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.

Not sure how this thread will go, but I feel I'm at a point in life where something is calling me but can't figure out what. Not just money either, but happiness. I'll start out by saying I do machining and programming and have been for the last 7 years. I've been thinking of other fields to work in etc but its hard when it's an employers market and not the employees. I graduated at 15 and was in college shortly after but had family issues plus couldn't make up my mind. I've had lots of other ideas for income and jobs but would like to hear from ya'll to get a different outlook!
 

"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.

Graduated at 15...wow
Job: Entrepreneur/Future CEO and founder of my own web development business
Idea for income (I assume this is for us): Currently working on my vision of the next social network. Release scheduled for Summer. We'll see how it goes as far as income is concerned.

If you have been doing machining and programming ( I assume automated CMC 3/5 D machining), why not leverage that to develop something you can sell to other machine shops? use it as a side project, than see if you can sell it?

Of course as someone who has a little experience in this, it might be a bit niche/ difficult. if you graduated at 15 though your most certainly smarter than I am and could possibly see something I don't..
 

"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.

Nothing really I guess, I just started of thinking of things I wished Facebook (and I've noticed other social networks too) had, and eventually decided to "fix" the problem by creating the solution. Basic business thought process right there: Identify a problem, create a solution.

Only problem is profiting off something free.

profiting off something free.....advertisements, gifts , vouchers , bonus content
dude look at those scumbags in EA games....they got the right idea :crackup:
i mean they sell a game for 50 then charge an extra 60 for a patch which was supposed to be there in the first place.....
though they won't last longer if they keep up with their ****ty games :box:

Many people fall into trapped ‘careers.’ I won’t say what’s my day job, but it has nothing to do with what I want. So now I’m now focusing on talents and passion by starting my own freelance graphic design & photography business.

lmao. That wouldn't really work for a social network. Ads are a given, but gifts vouchers and bonus content...lol. I have some ideas for profit in mind anyway, but like I said we'll see how far it goes income wise.

And 50? Hmm, you must be a PC gamer or you use a Wii lol :p

Good point...but I don't use a Facebook so idk lol
 

"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.

People are rarely these days doing what they love and making money off of it in America, that's just the harsh ****ing truth.

Even Muscians, and artist who are passionate about music have to deal with the bull**** politics behind getting your work out to the masses, be it dealing with record execs, agents, copy rights ect.


The Money is good, but I don't love what I do, I'm not going to lie to myself like that.

If I could make me a sandwich and have sex all day and get paid for it, then I would love my job.

There's always prostitution my friend. Or you could be a pornstar which is, you know, legal.

Majority of male pornstars had to do gay porn in order to step their first foot into the adult biz. Very, very rarely does a male pornstar start doing hetero porn right away.

True, not to mention they don't get paid very well-in the beginning at least. Not much later either really

What's popular now, FaceBook? Do you know how many times a month people search how to crack fb password?

Create a program that attempts to crack fb and charge for it.

Wtf...that is a very crap long time way to make money.

How instead of a dumb idea like that, create a social app that integrates with Facebook.

Computer programming is where I see all the jobs headed, I want to continue studying it and see where it takes me

Backseatjuan, my bro you are suggesting people do illegal things like 'create an app that breaks Facebook security' as a job. You're 32 years old. It's time to get real

I suggest reading The Millionaire Fastlane if you want to know how money works

"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.
