"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.

There are a lot of posts and information on this site. An overwhelming number of rules to becoming a successful DJ. I've always believed, though, that the distance between doing what you've been doing (failure) and making a change is very short (success).

I went on a date a couple of weeks ago. I met the girl at a club, handed her my phone and told her to give me her number. I called 4 days later and told her to keep her Saturday afternoon free. I then texted her on Friday telling her when I'd be there to pick her up. Simple as.

She kept talking about how she loved that I took charge and even as we were driving around, that I wouldn't tell her where I was going. Now, I'm still the somewhat quiet, overanalyzing rAFC I've been through most of my life but by flipping my own script just a bit, it made a difference. And to be honest, there's no reason I couldn't have done these simple things a long time ago.
 

"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.

Good job on trying something new. The problem with most is that they tend to fall back on what their most comfortable with, even if that means failure after failure. Also a lot of the time, we know what the simple answer is, but we find excuses to not do it.

It is simple. People on forums do over complicate it, and that's why their personalities go from bland to worse.

I'd hate to spend the day with someone like Mystery, nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd!!!

It's called getting into the flow. It's as easy as deciding. At some point all of the pickup artist crap stops being learning and starts being over analyzing. That's why you have to step away from pick up boards and just get in tune with the natural flow of life, you have to let this stuff fall into your subconscious and let it become natural and a part of you. I know this sounds all sorta hocus pocus like...but trust me. That's the last step in your training.
