"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.

RIP Ultimate Warrior

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Probably from steriods. He was just inducted into the Wrestling Hall Of Fame. I was watching an old WWF Survivor's Series tape from the 90's and most of the best wrestlers are all dead. That sucks. Big Boss Man. Mr. Perfect, Andre The Giant, Rick Rude, and so many more.

Don't forget the great Randy Macho Man Savage.

I saw Warrior on Raw Monday, it seemed like he made a few feeble efforts to do the rope shaking thing he used to do, but he appeared to get real winded from it. It even occured to me that they cut the camera away to the crowd so as to hide how out of breath he was.

Anyway, sounds like a heart attack, possibly exacerbated by steroids.
 

"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.

And Miss Elizabeth. Bam Bam Bigelow, Owen Hart, British Bulldogs, Paul Bearer etc.

I have some old classic tapes when savage first started out.

Damn, if he was in that bad shape he's lucky he made it to Raw. Would be interesting just to see the clip without it being edited to see if he was super ill. Maybe it was starting that night. That's too bad all the greats are gone.
