Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Disciple,

How about shooting a three pointer, missing, but getting the rebound? Or, practicing your game so well that every three pointer you make, you score.
In the game, anything can happen.

There are times when you could take a three pointer (cold approach) and miss the first attempt but maybe get a rebound (second opportunity) and score the second time.

I have seen things like this happen.

As far as getting so good that you never miss a 3-pointer, the best shooters in the NBA will only make 40-50% of their attempts, the best hitters in baseball hit in the .330 to .400 range, and the best passers in football don't complete 100% of their passes for a season (maybe for a game).

The point is that we are human and therefore imperfect so why should we expect to score 100% of the time.

No one does no matter how good they get.

There will be times when you will be perfect but never all of the time.

I've had nights where it seemed like I couldn't lose with the ladies and then went out the next weekend and couldn't get sh*t.

Did I change within a week?

No, the game is random so sometimes you hit peaks, sometimes valleys, and most of the time you land somewhere in between.
 

"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.
