"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

My agent has booked me at an 8-city college speaking tour this month to promote my book, which is coming out in a couple of months.

Let's talk social proof and being the alpha in the room: I will be lecturing in front of rooms full of impressionable young women, many of whom will be sowing their oats, all of whom are interested in the very thing that their professors will have told them I'm one of the world's leading experts at.

And I'll be staying in nice hotel rooms. Always a plus.

This is just a trial run. If this goes well, we'll hit it really hard later this year, and my book will find its way into some curricula. That would result in a steady gig speaking at colleges and universities, year in and year out.

Just saying.

Yum.
 

"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.

Globalization. Same as everyone else. A few new ideas, or so I'm told.
 

"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.

I don't have a Ph.D. I have two Bachelors degrees, an MBA in international finance, and post grad work in international development and regional studies, plus years of work in the military on provincial reconstruction teams.

You don't need a Ph.D to write a book but you'll have a hell of a time breaking into academia without at least a Masters. A big part is who you know but you've got to have the bona fides.
