"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Damn guys I'm on a roll. The whole summer I've met only a few chicks but every day I've been either at the gym or at the recreational center playing hours of basketball with some of my cool friends.

I suffered pretty bad acne the year before, but i got my mom to bring me to a physician who in turn sent me to a dermatologist. I've been taking topical treatments (benzoyl peroxide) and also oral treatment (doxycycline) for almost 2 months. My acne is 80 percent better. I'm hoping to clear it 100 percent in due time.

I felt manipulated so i started reading "The 48 Laws of Power" by Robert Greene two months ago, and now I'm almost done (On Law 45).

You guys know what the awesome thing is? At school (which just started) and in the streets, I get approached now!! It's like I'm a person with high value. I've always been ****y and funny, but now i can back it up better with my improved body image. It's like the reverse, all my efforts go into me and people get attracted. Thats pretty cool. And you know what? I respect everyone, or at least i pretend to.

Some people are naturally insecure, which i was, but I learn to stay away from them. If you know your psych, you can string insecure people like puppets. Oh yeah and money is an awesome thing to have. I can't wait to receive my first paycheck in a few weeks!!!

Some of the people at school, they try and force an image on you, because they refuse to see the change you put into yourself. While you improve yourself, they just stand there doing no improvement, but they just waste their efforts into halting your improvement. LOL you guys see this? I get attractive girls come up to me, including one i reallly like and they all of a sudden they shut up.

Also, when you are frustrated (ie by some complicated calculus, some chick, some dude who disses you, bad test score, parents, anything) Just stop and ask yourself , "Yo Why am i getting so uptight? I can solve this!" Remember to not overcomplicated things.

So yeah its pretty neat. I'm here to express the value of self improvement through my two eyes. I've read some threads that devalue self improvement, and all i can go is like "WTF ARE THEY THINKING". What do you guys think?

"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.
