"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.

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.

A lot of you can talk the talk. But can you walk the walk?

Emotional secure people tend to have high self-esteem. They alway seems very calm most of the time. You will see it in the way they act. As a rule of thumb, they tend to act more mature.

While emotional insecure people are the opposite. They tend to act very immature.
