Consider the focussing cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in $R^3$: $$ i\psi_t+\Delta\psi = -|\psi|^2 \psi. $$ It admits special solutions of the form $e^{it\alpha}\phi$, where $\phi$ is a Schwartz function and a positive ($\phi>0$) solution of $$ -\Delta \phi + \alpha\phi = \phi^3. $$ The space of all such solutions, together with those obtained from them by rescaling and applying phase and Galilean coordinate changes, called standing waves, is the eight-dimensional manifold that consists of functions of the form $e^{i(v \cdot + \Gamma)} \phi(\cdot - y, \alpha)$. We prove that any solution starting sufficiently close to a standing wave in the $\Sigma = W^{1, 2}(R^3) \cap |x|^{-1}L^2(R^3)$ norm and situated on a certain codimension-one local Lipschitz manifold exists globally in time and converges to a point on the manifold of standing waves. Furthermore, we show that $\mc N$ is invariant under the Hamiltonian flow, locally in time, and is a centre-stable manifold in the sense of Bates, Jones. The proof is based on the modulation method introduced by Soffer and Weinstein for the $L^2$-subcritical case and adapted by Schlag to the $L^2$-supercritical case. An important part of the proof is the Keel-Tao endpoint Strichartz estimate in $R^3$ for the nonselfadjoint Schr\"odinger operator obtained by linearizing around a standing wave solution.
