You stride confidently with a smile on your face. Even when you don't feel happy. No, Especially when you don't feel happy. You have a joyful aura around you. It makes others happy to be around you. You walk into everything confidently knowing that no one can shoot you down because you're too fvcking busy being awesome to care what they think.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

"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.

I just keep imagining this guy walking around with a big grin an his arms akimbo, then *BAM*. Lampost.
That's what I meant. When you're not happy, don't let it affect you. When something bad happens to you, don't let it change anything for you. In fact, when something bad happens to you, you should concentrate more on all the good things you have going for you and just put the bad things in the back seat.ZenGodMod said:
And i loved the lamp post comment lol
"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.

At least fake it until you make it. This will send signals to your subconscious mind and start reprogramming it to form new positive subconscious thoughts and habits.
It's a lot better than doing the same ole thing and ending up with the same ole life.

rofl, when I'm not happy I'm not happy it doesn't mean I will put on a fake laugh, last night at the club I work was chaos a few people called in sick so I had to run from one area to another to assist at those moments I wasn't happy I had my I'm working my ass off face on. but those moments in between I had my smile on as you have to enjoy what you are doing and look for amusement around you there is allways something that will make you smile.

Good philosophy. I've been working on that. Just looking for shìt that makes me smile in anything and everything. Train your mind to draw itself toward the good, and it seems to make you magnetic.
