Always think for yourself. However, good advice comes in handy; Listen to it.
Measure yourself only against your previous self.
A dedicated amount of your paycheck should go directly to your savings account every month. The women keep theirs.
Know when you've made a mistake and know when to say "I'm sorry." Apologizing doesn't make you less of a man.
Nothing looks more badass than a well tailored suit.
Brush your teeth before you put on your tie
Give a firm handshake and always stand to give one.
Name-dropping is a total no-no.
If you are wittier than you are handsome, avoid loud clubs.
Be passionate about something.
Be knowledgeable about something. In actual fact, a wide variety of things.
Reading helps. It allows you to borrow someone else’s brain and it saves you from being brain empty.
Do 50 push-ups, sit-ups, and dips or any other kind of exercise before you shower each morning…. And shower EVERY morning.
If you aren’t confident, fake it. It will come. Women find confidence sexy as hell.
Manliness is not only about being able to take care of yourself, but others as well.
Buy nice sunglasses. Never wear them in a room. If you lose them, please do not whine about it (especially in the presence of a woman).
Never hit anyone unless they are an immediate threat. Avoid physical fights
Piercings are liabilities in fights. Stay away from them.
There is an 85% chance that you will regret your tattoos. Think twice!
Never take a girl to the movies on the first date. If she insists on a movie, go and then take her to a place that allows for conversation after.
Compliment her. Compliment her clothes. Compliment her shoes. She is probably dying in those heels.
Don’t split a check especially with a woman (even if she insists).
One girlfriend at a time is probably enough. One is enough work, why take on more?
If she tells you something, please please please remember it.
If she expects the person you are 20% of the time, 100% of the time, then she doesn't want you.
Why indulge in the services of a hooker when there are real women everywhere? You just have to get your charm on, keep it on and keep her. If she makes you wait, then there must be something good. Wait!
Never take an ex back. She tried to do better and is settling with you.
If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room
If riding the bus doesn't make you want to improve your situation in life, nothing will.
When people don’t invite you to a party, you really shouldn’t go. And sometimes even when you are invited, you shouldn’t go.
Always bring a bottle of something to the party.
People are tired of you being the funny, drunk guy. Stay sober.
When in doubt, always kiss the girl. The worst thing that you’ll get is a slap.
Tip more than you should, never less.
No selfies. Aspire to experience photo-worthy moments in the company of a beautiful woman and let the woman put it up on facebook, instagram or wherever before you do.
