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.

He should stay within his original style under Cuz. Those fundamentals with wisdom will be a problem for opponents. His mindset needs to shift.
Well. I'm a firm believer in review, review, review.
I wonder if he took notes or drew diagrams he could be rereading. Looking at old pictures and home movies. Visualising happy memories of lessons and the family life he had with Cuz
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Those same vids we watched can be his foundation. Those techniques made him world champ.

He has a mental roladex that the younger cats cant have. The body is amazing. If you push it it will overcompensate and get stronger.
Yes, I know. I experience it working manual labour. Its akin to sports. I was thinking of starting a thread here asking who works physically in their job all day every day but I don't know that many are even working in pandemic. Might be misconstrued. I'm just curious how people can do afterwork sports and have regular lovelife with a fulltime labour job.

So before Tyson worked for Don King, I learned that he had wiped out all his fighters. It wasn't intentional, just how it happened. So perhaps this fueled Don's desire to make money off of him, then rob him in the end and make he wish he was dead. Don King was a gangster.

At 40:40 into this footage Holmes complained about Tyson throwing elbows, headbuts and hitting after the bell. So he said he didn't see a gentleman in there, he saw a beast. So if he wants to be a beast he's gonna have to go in there with a beast. At that time Holmes was saying he would "humble" Tyson, Holmes may have been one Don Kings men.
that's the movie on Tyson

What about The Toad?

Tyson says it killed his ego, or at least changed it fundamentally. He certainly seems more mellow and humble in interviews. I can’t help but wonder if this, plus age, has seriously softened his killer instinct.

"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.

Dynamite:

That training HEAT.
so weird to have people stand around and watch you train without coaching or encouraging you
I enjoy watching this because I believe this is high skill and I admire it. I think he could continue to win fights just like in the past as his training was so thorough.
That is a good youtube channel to have these videos.

He's hot, and he didn't have fans and medias around him in these training sessions. If I was in his shoes I'd be limiting that sort of attention and not do any talking. Focus on the training that has to be done. Eat, sleep, live it.

Man, to get that kind of an attentive coach one-on-one....you could accomplish the world!!
 

"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.
