"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

More and more men have desk jobs, with women superiors, that's why. And that's why I got out of my desk job many moons ago. I'm blue-collar hard-working now, big bicepts, kick ass.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Not surprising. I mean our grandfathers stormed the beach of Normandy. Their grandsons are getting highlights in their hair and wearing black nail polish and I'm supposed to be surprised?

You guys are probably right in that it is tied to a decline in physical activity. The obesity epidemic may be related as well.

"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.

I think that we are like the Romans with all the things in the food.

The Romans put lead in their water and it fvcked them up. We put chemicals and sh!t in our foods and we are probably done for.

Does anyone who's aware of it really expect all those female hormones pumped into farm animals to make them soft and fat would not do the same to humans, at least to some degree?

The movie "Dr Strangelove - how I learned to love the bomb" gave us the answer - it's the added fluoride in water!!
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

The decline in testosterone levels in men is directly correlated to the rise in obesity. When 66% of the American populace is clinically overweight and a full 33% are classified as 'Morbidly Obese' testosterone levels in men is only one result. Weight related disease, corinary problems, diabetes, some forms of cancer, blood pressure, etc. can all be traced to the rise in our weight.

I wish to cancel my "fluoride" answer and go with Rollo on this one -- obesity!

I don't know, maybe it's wrong of me, but I'm starting to feel angered when I see fat people.
