1. Keep cool under pressure.
Life will throw everything at you.
Sooner or later, things WILL go wrong.
If you crumble at the first sign of adversity, life will crush you without mercy.
Become an immovable object. Steel your nerves and be prepared for the worst.

2. Don't be afraid of confrontation.
You can't please everyone, and trying to is a losing battle.
Make friends with the word "No" and use it often.
Doing what's best for you is more important than pleasing strangers who don't care about you.

3. Make failure your best friend.
Every great thing that's ever been achieved by man was preceded by COUNTLESS fuck-ups.
So don't be afraid to get rejected by that girl.
To bomb that job interview.
To lose money on that business idea.
You CANNOT level up by playing it safe.

4. Be able to talk to anyone, anywhere.
I don't care if you're an introvert.
Life is a multiplayer game, and doing everything on your own is close to impossible.
Knowing people and how they work is the closest thing to a cheat code. Do not leave this opportunity on the table.

5. Put yourself and your loved ones first.
Too many guys live and breathe to impress others - and for what?
Will the opinions of strangers be there for you a year from now? 5 years? A decade?
Put yourself and family above all. Everything else is a distraction holding you back.

6. Don't let a heartbreak ruin you.
I've seen it time and time again:
Young, ambitious guy full of energy who calls it quits on life because some bimbo broke his heart.
Brother. I PROMISE you there are much better girls out there. Get up and fight, you're just getting started.

7. Civilize the mind, make savage the body.
If you don't know what to do, you need to read and lift.
These two habits alone will improve your life more than ANY trendy habits or buzzwords floating around on social media.
The basics work. Double down and conquer.

8. Take personal hygiene seriously.
It's unbelievable how many guys rarely shower, don't shave, don't cut their nails, and haven't had a haircut in months.
This is the lowest hanging fruit, guys.
Be clean, smell good, and look presentable. It really doesn't take much effort.

9. Opt for delayed gratification.
We live in an instant gratification world.
Everything is available at the click of a button.
But the most worthwhile pursuits don't pay off until MUCH later.
You need to learn to be patient, work hard now, and reap future rewards.

10. Work hard when you don't feel like it.
The things that are going to make you richer, stronger, and happier are going to be TEDIOUS and BORING.
There will be days where you don't feel like putting in the work.
A man puts his feelings on the backburner and shows up anyway.
