"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

This may come easy for some, and seem like a boulder in the way of their success for others. What are your time management suggestions? How do you manage your time? What's your schedule like? Just wondering you know...I go home, usually do some homework, eat and check sosuave. Then I do homework some more and work out until I'm done. After that I take a shower, finish up homework and sleep. I waste a lot of time between that though. Like I spend too much time here or I might go check out some random newspaper article or watch TV for too long when I'm running.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Well I probably have an undiagnosed form of OCD, but I generally give myself a fairly rigid schedule. I even estemiate how long it will take to do HW assigments and then plan my schedule around that estimate. There's no real point to this point to this post honestly, I'm curious about this myself actually, but I noticed your thread needed to be bumped up. So here you go

Yo thanks for the bump. What I'm going to do is try to get a lot of work done during my study periods at school and lunch break. There aren't many distractions there (besides hot chicks who rub against me and all you know...) and I can focus (when tits/ass aren't in my face).

I tried writing how long it'd take me to do assignments and all, but it didn't really work out because I always took longer. I think I will try to get away from the computer. I believe that is key. Then afte 21 days or rwhatever I'll be cured like a piece of ham.

Thanks for the bump.

I'm not sure where I've read this before, but apparently some guy wrote a book saying that you get 80% of your effective/efficient work done in 20% of the time you actually do the work.

So essentially he is saying you should work less, but how to work more efficiently.

But yeah, I tend to use "free time" (ie. driving, sitting on the train, on the toilet, etc) to read something useful. I've managed to finish up all my college assignments while sitting on the train, and in the toilet.

"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.

That's not a problem for me since I, in fact, have a time machine.

Brian Tracy has an awesome program for this. Simply called "How to Master Your Time". This program answers all the questions around time management I've come up with myself so far as well as all the questions Ive heard so far from other people.

Time is the scarcest recource for sure.
