"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.

Temptation is a bastard.

Wanting to act in ways that you know you shouldn’t, and that are harmful, and that you’re used to because it’s safe to is a bad thing.

“I should do this because this has always been my routine.”

But it’s gotten you no where.

“I like things the way they are. I’m comfortable living an easy life.”

Easy is for weak-minded people. Challenge yourself. Push past your boundaries.

“I read this stuff and apply some of it, but some of you guys are off your rockers.”

No we’re not. We see what we want and do what it takes to achieve it. It’s called ambition and drive. Get some.

“I like the way my life is.”

Either you’re lying to yourself, or you have no ambition in life. You have become too dependent on the typical “don’t do more than you have to” mentality. It’s a bad attitude to have. Not many successful people will want to be associated with you. It’s a fact. You reap what you sow. Sow some good seeds and let them grow. Let them develop into little you’s. That will be your testament to this world.

"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.

Great post. Its all true.

I believe in pushing yourself all the time. Its not always easy trying to improve, but you just have to hardenup and do it. :)

Crafty, I needed this post right now. You truly are one of the unsung heroes of the forum, as SenorFingers pointed out.

Some people come here and say that people here are "off their rockers" because they don't want to admit that we're right. When we say "stop giving women everything they want" they think "wow, this website is turning men into *******s". When they should be saying "Dude, my last girlfriend left me for one of these guys".
 

"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.
