"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.

TOO Confident, good or bad?

"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.

Too much of anything is bad. But what do you mean? Do you mean ****y? I cant think of how you can have too much confidence, unless you mean fearless even in the face of death.

Confidence is a natural thing, it comes from within. I don't think it is something you can just call upon to help out your self image. Although, you can better your situation through working out, taking care of your priorities, getting over your fear of talking to women etc. Once confidence is built up to a point, people will notice a change in the way you carry yourself. :up:

There's no such thing as too confident.

New levels of confidence just open up your horizons to things you never thought possible.

It's a belief in yourself and your abilities and when you have it, it's great. You can't tell yourself to 'have more' or 'have less' of it.

When I have confidence, I can only fake not having it. When I lack it, I can only fake having it. Neither fake is convincing.

The other day I introduced myself to this cute little asian girl at a restaurant I was at because I saw her looking at me a few times. I would've _never_ done that before, but for whatever reason, I just had the inner strength to do it without hesitation.
