10 subtle behaviours that make men instantly more masculine
Yeah, I see you cringing at the word: ‘masculinity…’
It’s a dirty word in the modern age.
But why?
To be a happy man is to be a man at ease in his masculinity.
And for society to be worth living in, we need happy men.
He’s acutely aware of the need to maximise his masculine nature.
As a keen student of human behaviour, these are some behaviours I’ve found make a big impact on this part of my life as a man:
Name your Everest.
Most men are lost and without purpose.
Join the elite few and create a reality driven by a commitment so ‘unreasonable’ and exciting it makes your eyes water when you name it.
What’s ONE thing you will accomplish by the end of this year that would excite the shit out of you if it were to become a reality?
Some men choose to climb the highest mountain on Earth.
What’s yours?
Make the commitment, keep it private (dm it to me if you like), and today — take one small step. This will empower you like little else.
Set fire to your past.
To the degree you identify with your past, you are disadvantaged and neutered as a man.
Each time you allow what happened back then to pollute your present behaviour, you literally operate under insanity. The past is not real. Burn it to the ground now, and watch it waft away in a billow of ash. Be here with us, mate.
A beautiful future and your crackling presence are all that matter.
Return to danger.
They did a study that found a direct link between taking risks and increased testosterone.
Being overly safe and avoidant is literally making you weak and soy. Take calculated risks every day.
Allow your pulse to quicken. Be in danger, but don’t be reckless (this is, again, soy). Just because we live in a ‘peaceful’ time doesn’t mean we can’t live on the edge.
A reliable and secure man is a dangerous man.
Decide to lead.
Misery accompanies those who see themselves at the mercy of the world around them.
They have no sense of control or ownership. An antidote to this is to choose to lead.
Find another to lift up right now. You will simultaneously forget your woes while gaining the energy from supporting another.
Leaders are rewarded with a masculine pride that is felt instantly.
Conserve sexual energy.
Leave your damn pecker alone, bro. I get it; Sheila on Instagram has a sweet ass.
Too many men are completely unaware they are sitting on a nuclear power plant.
They just release so often that they never experience its force.
Conserve your energy, feel your inner warrior rise up, and use this to pursue your mission. Sex energy is the most significant advantage you have if used with care.
Be superficial.
Surface details matter.
Little things like getting a haircut, a tan, dressing well, cleaning your nails and everyday maintenance go a long way. They reinforce your sense of pride and transmit this to the world too.
I cringe when I see men in stained sweatpants and poorly fitting jumpers.
Confidence begins in the superficial.
Bond with men.
Most of us live in an anti-male, politically-correct modern environment.
When our freedom to communicate freely is smothered and awkward at best — men need male-only spaces more than ever.
Locker-room talk is necessary and cathartic. Our meat market ‘look at my big butt’ gyms allow very little of this these days.
Men need to bond with, joke, and connect with one another. Find a men’s only group, a community or at the very least reach out to other men online.
Reunite with your dark side.
With woke and ‘progressive’ rubbish piped into our awareness all our lives, it’s easy for men to fall into the trap of denying the darker aspects of their nature.
Our need for healthy aggression.
Our natural lusts and healthy drives have allowed for the proliferation of the species.
We see society mocking and belittling these aspects of what it means to be an integrated man. Screw ‘society,’ and use the anger it has stirred in you to build magnificence.
Open yourself up to these darker parts of you, do it with grace, and feel your masculine emerge.
Walk taller.
Small things take you furthest. Bring a little extra elevation to your posture wherever you go.
Your physiognomy reflects your view of yourself, but it is also felt as a ripple that springs outwards. Don’t wait for life to go ‘right’ for you to have a skip in your step.
I don’t care how much hardship you’ve suffered. Stand up straight. Step out with pride, and the universe will mould itself to your reality.
Be relentless.
What have you been coasting on that needs more heat?
Whether it’s family time, business growth, income or dedication to crafting an elite body, what right now requires a level of ferocity that currently isn’t there? Name it now. Maybe it’s a few things. Great, get to work.
Masculine energy is, and always will be, a beautifully aggressive force for good.
Be that.
Own it, love your haters, don’t apologise, and watch the world get out of your way.
