Round em up!
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
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.
Kyle Rittenhouse is an EMT but had been asked to help prevent a friend's business from being burned down, because the "Cops" who are employed through tax money aren't allowed to do their jobs anymore. I don't care if he's 17 or 67, that man is a hero and showed poised in dispatching those who sought to snuff him out! He was putting out a fire in a dumpster (gas station nearby) just before they went after him. He'd been helping those hurt during the riots earlier. Funny the idiot who got his bicep blown off was crying for a medic. He should have asked Kyle.Do you really want teenagers with ar 15s rushing into wherever there is trouble? When facebook allows a dumbassenhouse fan page to radicalize more right wing terrorists, and then they go kill more people, that's sad and all, but what really matters is that their dead relatives sue facebook. That costs money and cuts into profits. That's why they delete the sh1t that can get them sued.
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.
Jury just acquitted him on all charges. I still think he is a dumbass kid, but given the details of the case, I have to say it is a win for the rule of law. When someone has a gun, if you try to forcefully take it away from them, they get to shoot you in self defense. The law is supposed to be the same regardless of how much everyone loves or hates the defendant.Kyle Rittenhouse is an EMT but had been asked to help prevent a friend's business from being burned down, because the "Cops" who are employed through tax money aren't allowed to do their jobs anymore.
