"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.

Some of you may know what Tabula Rasa translates to, but for those of you who don't it means Blank Slate. I have this is my signature as it is my guiding thought everyday.

Tabula Rasa, wake up with this thought everymorning, it does not matter what happened yesterday today is a blank slate. You may have made mistakes yesterday, you may have made good decisions, anything could have happened, you do not erase your memories because you need them to learn from. However, you have to wake up everyday and write the story as you go along, starting with things you HAVE to remember, dates you have set, tests, assignments that are due to come up, if you are working out today, if it is a friends birthday, and the list goes on. However from there on you have to feel the day out, immediatly assess the moods of the people around you, because the way someone acted yesterday could change completly the next day, always strive to learn more about a person so it becomes easier to deal with them. Using Tabula Rasa will help you to become more spontaneous each day, wake up and say to yourself "today I am going to: kiss a girl, approach a girl, make a new friends, etc" all these little details will go far as it will help you set goals for each day.

The concept is simple, just start each new day refreshed and don't spend your day rehashing days past, or predicting days to come, live in the now.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
