"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.

Why learn to lip-read?

Lip reading is a very important skill if you are planning on doing a lot of picking up at nightclubs where there will be loud music... You know how it can get, when she keeps saying the same thing over and over because you can't hear her...

Try watching TV on mute and figure out what they are saying... If you are truly awful (which I must admit I was), use the subtitles so you can get used to the lip movements etc.

Once you really get the hang of this you can really start putting it to use :)
 

"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.

bro, this is blatant plagiarism... I know I've read this before somewhere.

Anyway lip-reading is definitely not an important skill compared to some other ones you can learn.

i've always wanted to learn how to lip read. very rarely i'll mute and try to read the lips. i barely do it tho cuz i barely watch tv, so when i do, i'm usually trying to actually understand it.
 

"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.

Watch yourself in the mirror as you say common phrases. There. Lesson learnt.

OR, you can take the chance to get CLOSER to her to hear her, or to talk to her.
