we all know it works..but listen, I get the feeling some of you might be doing that shit all wrong.

I'll try to be brief---being stoic doesn't necessarily mean that you are gonna be walking around stiff; with a blank expression and a faux tough demeanor like some kind of character. I keep seeing dudes doing this shit at work, at clubs and it's lame as fuck. This isn't Vampire Hunter D. Being stoic just means that you will not be externally moved by praise or disapproval. You are not reactionary.

However...for fuck's sake, take note of all the biggest alphas there are in the world and of people who are super successful...they SMILE A LOT. They are loose in their mannerisms. They stretch out. They seem to adapt to their surroundings under even the most extreme situations and yet, hold their composure even when they are disapproved of or things become disconcerting. Being stoic--again--just means that you are not reactionary. Your frame is held no matter fucking what. Compartmentalize/contextualize your mind.

Stop taking yourself so fucking seriously and SMILE the point that your eyes crinkle on the side and do that shit EVERYWHERE. Appear to be the owner of your surroundings and eventually you WILL be just that. People respond to that shit FAR more than your fake ass, boring coy act. Other than that, fellas, the world don't give a fuck about your pursuit, so smile that shit off and have fun (and adapt) with every situation. Amused mastery.

GET OUT THERE AND FAIL...TODAY. NOW. AND SMILE IT OFF LIKE THE BOSS.
