"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.

Two and a half years ago when I weighed 267 pounds I started walking. My goal was to build up my stamina slowly to the point where I could run a mile without stopping.

I achieved that earlier this year. So I set a new goal of 3mi no walking. Done. And this week I hit 5mi no walking. I was amazed how fast I progressed from 3 to 5 miles. I think it is due to more full body compounds like squats and deads in my lift routines have made my legs and core stronger. I also changed up my cardio to be walk once, run once, sprint once each week.

Anyway, it felt good to hit the new milestone. I don't have any desire to go farther.

Next up: bench my own bodyweight for a full set. I am 15lbs away....
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Great job dude, breaking personal barriers is what it's all about.

How many reps do you consider a 'full set?' 10?
