"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.

My left side(shoulder, arm, upper back) is noticeably smaller than my right side. I also had a chiropractic exam on thursday and the doc said I have an overdominance on my right side and its causing my spine to lean out to the right a bit.

How do I go about strengthening my left side effectively?

My idea:

1) Do an extra few reps of each exercise(DB shoulder press, curls, rows) with my left.

2) Also, I've started training in tennis with my left hand as well. I know that sounds crazy, but its excellent training to be proficient with both sides.

It's not that it isn't as strong, like I push/pull the same weights with both arms, its just noticeably(not huge difference, but noticeable) smaller, and the doc noticed it too, so...

Anybody with experience at balancing out a physique would be welcome.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I'm right handed, and while my right started out the strongest, my left shoulder and chest have become stronger than my right, though my right arm is much stronger (no jokes boys).

I've started doing curls beginning with left (weakest) arm, and when that fails not doing anymore on right. And likewise for other exercises, but dunno... seems to not work so much for chest, where I'm pretty much usually doing a 5RM so pushing with everything...

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

in my experience it will balance in time (once it's fully developed), or if its some particular dysmorphia then it probably never will, but no-one's gonna notice. don't sweat it.

Watch out for those chiropractors. They will tell you amazing things. I would consider getting multiple opinions, preferrably some from other types of doctors. This is coming from experience.

To balance out--

Train all your one sided exercises left side first, and only do as many reps with your right side as you can with your left. Your right side will slow down, but it'll be worth it for your left side to catch up.

couldn't you just put in more of an effort conciously towards your left when your doing the weights that use both arms?
 

"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.
