"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Yo Whats Up!

I got a couple of problems I need help with. First of all I have been lifting weights on and off since I was like 14 years old. I am now 18 and I am about to go to college this year. The fact that I have been lifting weights on and off for the last 4 years means only one thing. That I am starting and then I am quiting after a couple of months or so. My famalies genes allow me to be naturally thick, and I don't have a hard time building muscle at all. The main problem I have is that tied with all of that I still have fat on my body, but recently this summer I started back working out, and running to try to tone down some. I have successfully continued throughout the summer, and even though I haven't seen the pounds leave off the scale I can see in the mirror that I have toned down. My arms are more cut, my waist is smaller. Hey I can even see my two top abs starting to come in. I mean I still have alot of flab on my body, but when I take off my shirt off now I can actually see the potentail that I have. The thing is I hate working out in front of other people. Mainly because I build muscle so easily that I don't have to lift that heavy of weights. People expect for me to be so strong, but I'm really not that strong. I don't even know what my max. on the bench is. This is not the point though, I know I am going to have to suck it up, and work out in the weight room with everyone else or else I am going to once again loose all of my progress. I was wondering how can I start lifting for more power?
 

"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.

Don't worry about how heavy the weight is, when your in the gym and see the knuckleheads straining to get 285 up on the bench with horrible form just laugh.

I lift because it makes me feel good, and I like looking cut with my shirt off during the summer...If it were possible to look as jacked as you want to be, by only lifting 1lb. weights each session, would you do it??? I know i would...So screw everything else...Its a good general dj philosophy
