The 2 Most Important Online Dating Tips Ever, for Guys in Manhattan

Image
As a dating coach for the past 5 years in Manhattan, I've heard it all from my clients -- who are both women and men (I have about half of each). So I have a great idea what annoys women. I also have received plenty of scary messages that I instantly delete. Before we begin, it won't help to get angry that "I can't believe this is how it is. It shouldn't be this way!!" This is the way it is. This is what women in the city respond to. Being pissed off won't help anymore than being outraged that you have to spell check your resume if you want a job. If you want to achieve a goal, there are certain things you have to do (and not do). Tell your ego to be quiet for a minute, and take this to heart. Deep breath now! Here are my TOP 2 tips for guys trying to online date in the city. 1) Guys -- Stop " negging " Stop it now. Negs, or those negative messages you tell a girl to throw her off balance, make her laugh, or just insult her, and NO longer in...

Entrepreneurs, are you a Visionary or a Doer?

Entrepreneurs, or those who want to be, fall into two categories -- the visionaries who are constantly flooded with new ideas and the doers who take action easily and put ideas into place. Either type can find success as an entrepreneur. VISIONARIES are big picture idea people, insightful, and might miss what's right in front of them (and walk right into a wall) because they are immersed in a theory or long-term plan or idea.

A children's story I wrote, for adults

I wrote this little children's story today, for adults to illustrate an important idea. THE MAN WITH THE UMBRELLA AND THE GIGANTIC STEAK THAT ALMOST KILLED HIM by Julie Melillo There was a man with an umbrella afraid of the rain. He carried it always each day the same, day or night, cloudy or bright. Walking without it, he just didn't feel all right. The dark fabric blinding his face from the sun, he grew pale and without a trace of wonder or joy. He kept his umbrella open always and held proudly facing the sky, just in case. And it's true, when a single drop fell, he stayed dry and would yell "Look at me! I'm as dry as can be!" Since the open umbrella always stayed glued to his hand, protecting him from the sky. But under his black tarp, he missed life's art. The clouds swirling above, doves, and he never met the eyes of another on the street, remained starring at his feet, so he never fell in love. He couldn't run, he never had fun, night or day, dry...
