I guess I should introduce myself here. A 🧵
My first clear memory was having my second stroke at age 3.
Doctors told my parents I'd be a vegetable.
I proved them wrong, learning to walk and talk again. But as I got older, my disability became my identity - especially with women.

Try to take on this mentality a little more this week as you face rejection from women (or the potential for it) - whether it’s walking and approaching women or on dates - and as you work on your confidence, connection skills, and overall personal development.

Your imperfections become ASSETS to your attractiveness when you own them. Most dating advice tells you to “work around” your looks, height, weight, disability, awkwardness. Don’t do that. Own it! #datingformen #mensdatingcoach #confidentmen #limitingbeliefscoach #confidenceiseverything

Eye contact is key to emotional connection with people - especially with dating and sparking chemistry with women…vs just a friendly / friend zone connection. 🧵⬇️

Now, if you’re hesitant, apologetic, or have a high degree of attachment to her liking you or not rejecting you, those are examples of weak energy that make many men think being direct or complimenting women too early is “beta.”

Most compliments fail because you’re seeking women’s approval instead of expressing genuine appreciation and attraction.
The difference: authentic turn-on energy vs. validation-seeking energy (or dry energy from stiffening up). 🧵⬇️

Social media can make some men think women these days are all gold diggers, man haters, or just plain suck, but I can tell you from a lot of experience in my own life and coaching hundreds of other men, truly shitty women are the exception to the rule. 🧵⬇️

Where is he? If we stop asking, stop demanding his return, we are complicit in his disappearance.
Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 109 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

One vocal habit instantly signals to women whether you’re confident or seeking approval: ending statements like questions?

Growing into your most attractive, magnetic self who is confident and competent in attracting the women YOU want requires facing tension, just like developing a stronger version of your body in the gym. ⬇️🧵

The more you embody approaching women for YOUR freedom vs trying to get her to like you, the more they’ll be drawn to you. They feel your authentic self - not the desperate Nice Guy energy that repels women. 🧵

Liberal men: the perilous times we’re in are a great opportunity to meet great women who want to be on the right side of history with you. The more you learn how to embody your healthy masculinity – be grounded, be direct and bold, be open and vulnerable – the more you can have your pic of beautiful

As you get more comfortable bringing sexual energy, you may find it’s a little too much - which is great BECAUSE you’re now much more comfortable with it.
At that point, you just back off the gas a little and bring more vulnerability and curiosity. 🧵⬇️

Every excuse you’re making about approaching women? I’ve made them all… I used to think my limp and awkward body - ON TOP of my nerves and social awkwardness - made me undateable. I’d watch confident guys and think “That’ll never be me.” But what I discovered changed everything 🧵⬇️

Start with these micro-actions:
➡️ Make eye contact and smile at women as they pass (no words needed)
➡️ Say “hello” to 5 strangers per day - men and women, just to normalize social interaction
➡️ Give genuine compliments to people, even in low-pressure situations (“I like your jacket” to a cashier

Liberal men - we can totally embody healthy masculinity (which includes vulnerability, empathy, and respect), confidence, boldness, assertiveness, and everything women as a group find most attractive in men while being firmly on the right side of history and good allies to less fortunate. The irony

Dating coaches telling you to "get creative with compliments" are leading you astray.
The most powerful compliment isn't the most creative one - it's the one you ACTUALLY FEEL most strongly. 🧵⬇️

A lot of men complain that women have it “so much easier” when it comes to dating because of how men are usually expected to lead when it comes to approaching, moving interactions forward, setting up dates, etc and the confidence and rejection work that can take.

I generally don’t worry too much about clients’ fashion.  It’s just so much less important than all of the beingness/confidence/connection skills. And I don’t want to distract them from practicing the most important things by telling them to make time to go shopping or using our time for fashion

Want to get more solid as a man and better under pressure?
Develop your INNER backbone.
Drop your awareness into your BODY and feel your spin or just your back.
Imagine your spine as a tree trunk - rooted, solid, unshakeable in the eye of the storm.
Solid in your own space.

Chiefs and Eagles players getting ready for Super Bowl LIX today are feeling more tension right now than in any other “big game” of their lives.
But that tension isn't a warning sign - it's a signal they're stepping into something bigger.
