"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.

This kid converted his truck into an EV

"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.

That's pretty cool. I'll stick to gas engines for now though. They have the highest power to weight ratio and you can go around 300 miles on a fillup and can refill in a few moments time :D.

I believe in the future the solution will be cars with electic motors and all street will have a power grid that cars tap into. This would give electric cars lightweight, and almost unlimited power and driving range.

Tesla found a way to transmit electricity without wires; he could do it between two metal plates. He had a crazy idea to make the surface of the Earth one plate and a layer of the atmosphere the other, and transmit power for free all over the planet, but but story goes that JP Morgan pulled his funding for the project, questioning "but where do I put the meter?" Free power is not profitable.

Yeah, big industry definitely killed off the electric car early on. I'm no expert in electrical engineering, but I think that is called electrical induction, which I think is slightly less efficient than electrical conduction through a wire connection. Nowadays it would be easy to account for electrical consumption by induction.

An electric motor is an idea motor for a car. It has constant torque, and it's much simpler than using an internal combustion engine. The problem with electric cars is the weight and limited capacity of batteries. Batteries and capacitors are getting better but they're still a sticking point and cost. So I was saying if you powered off the grid you would have light weight and almost unlimited power and driving range.

If you figure the typically cost of a Kw of electricity, I think the math comes out to the equivalent of about 50 cents/gal gasoline. And electric motor is like 80-90% efficient compared to 30-40% for a IC engine. The electricity can be produced more efficiently than the equivalent energy by an internal combustion engine in a vehicle, and from mulitiple energy sources.


The only real downside I see is electric motor emit electromagnetic energy and the effects on health are not fully known. But you can shield the motor and we use electrical devices quite a bit now with seemingly little problems. Plus there's no street level pollution.
 

"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.

yes we just learned about tesla recently.
tesla coils can give electricity to things around it
also,
everyone could have internet for free too, but it's not profitable.
