"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.

This is interesting but not that surprising.

Effectively if you want to lose weight while eating carbs, you should be eating them in their pre-packaged ratios of fiber as found in nature. It's this ratio that seems to be a key in how effective they are in terms of losing weight...

Fiber feeds the good bacteria in your gut which helps create hormones that regulate good processes in your body like blood sugar regulation, hunger and how quickly your stomach empties.

Which is why natural, unprocessed foods are always your best bet. They come intact the way we are supposed to be eating them.


 

"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.

Not surprising at all. You mean fruit and starchy vegetables (potatoes, legumes, and whole grains) are actually healthy?

Ya don’t say…

As long as you aren't one of the people who peel the skins off of fruits which contains most of the fiber haha

I keep the skin on my sweet potatoes, wash and dice them chunky and bake in the oven, that's most of my carbs with brown rice and bananas
