"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"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.

If you're going to judge by your t-shirt, than don't try it on after every workout. Throw it in the closet for a month. You're not going to 'gain bulk' from a single workout.

I judge myself by the 'nekid factor'. I take my dashing good looks, divide it by my outstanding physique, than multiply it by my low body fat which gives me a feel good 'nekid' number............... Basically I look in the mirror.


For those who live under rocks. Nekid = naked, with attitude.

*use mirror
*take pictures
*use the measurement tape
*don't believe the scale, water retention can cheat the numbers.

do it weekly, every time under the same circumstances.
