"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.

As a younger man, I wanted to be the guy who had the answers. The guy who "knows a guy", the guy who hears about opportunities first, The expert in my field.


But in discussing boundaries when do I go from being an Authority to being the "Research *****"?
 

"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.

When your information either, one ups or trumps everyone else’s the majority of the time. Not that I have ever researched this ratio out but maybe apply the 2/3’s rule to this. Less is more.
Hope this helps

Depends on the depth required. If you want some rules of thumb it's a topic. Your looking for general tactics that work most of the time.

If you want to make it situational you re trying to develop a decision making framework and need to go deep.

Given we believe in the panning for gold approach here - sifting through lots of material (screening) for the rare nuggets I think rules of thumb and let the chips fall is the best bang for buck.
