"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Im 16, I wanna get a job this summer. I was thinking someplace chilled out like Jamba Juice or something not too complicated. Any ideas on how to land a job? And what to do during an interview? I know ill be nervous for sure!
 

"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.

be very persistent.. if they slack off with reading your application and setting an interview call them until they get on things!

at the interview just wear something relatively nice and be sure to come across as a good, stable kid (I'm sure you are anyway)

For those type of jobs, usually they have to need someone. When they need somebody, they do interviews, and the person who seems least annoying to be around and will probably show up most of the time is who gets hired, unless some of the interviewees know somebody at the place. That helps a lot.

Anybody ever done day labor? I thought about doing that, the pay is about $6.00 and hour which isnt much but I have a business and it would allow me the freedom of not working the day labor on a day I have a job to do where I will make much more money.
