"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.

The longest books I ever read were:

War and Peace 1,440 pages.

a modern translation of the Bible which was about 1200 pages.

Gone with the Wind 1,037 pages

Bill Clinton's Autobiography My Life 1,008 pages

and a biography on Eleanor Roosevelt that was about 900 pages.
 

"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.

I read the 5 current books of Game of Thrones earlier this year. All 5 equal around 5000-6000 pages I believe.

When I was in 4th grade, my book report was on The Shining. I creeped out the teacher, and gave the other little kids nightmares.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I've read almost all of the Bible. But honestly, it gets a little boring towards the end of the Old Testament, and I skimmed over those parts.

I'm surprised no one has said The Brothers Karamazov. I know it's a classic, but I tried it once a long time ago and just couldn't get into it.

The Prince is only like 150 pages, if that.

I did too, but it took me over a year. Martin is a ponderous writer. Books 1 and 3 were awesome, but the rest, especially book 5, dragged ON and on....like enough already with the hundreds of useless names and characters. Advance the fvcking plot.
 

"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.

In my chump days I was trying to get a woman who had written this crappy book. Read it and fawned all over it and her with the compliments because she was extremely hot, total, utter POS book. No idea how many pages it was, but whenever I get arrogant tendencies, especially about women, I remind myself of that. That's a truly long book.

The second Jurassic Park was enormously different from the movie, because they had changed too much in the first movie. The Bourne Identity books are the same way, book is ten times better but since they changed so much in the first movie the second and third movies dont follow the books at all. IMHO the books written after the original author died are garbage.

King Lear. That **** was like the damn yellow pages.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
