"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

My neck and shoulder/top back area has always felt very tense in the past. Lately, it's getting worse and I get really angry when it tenses up because I can't move and just like slouch. I think this may have something to do with my posture, but no matter how much I will myself to sit straight, I can't seem to hold it for more than 45 min to an hour at most. What should I do? Anyone else experience neck tension or neck tension related to bad posture? How did you fix it? Thanks.
 

"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.

Limed for emphasis.

And hell, practice your DJ skills and get some back rubs while you're at it ;)

Hey this is what I was thinking. Right now, I only do deadlifts and dumbbell rows for my back. I also do a different variation of the bent row but lying on the bench and doing the row with both arms at once.

That is all I know. I have a bench, dumbbells (30 lb max), and a home gym thing with overhead cable and stuff like that. Any more exercises? Or should I still with these.
