12 Things Confident Adult Men NEVER No

Here are things confident adult men NEVER do:

1. Constantly seek validation by posting pictures on social media or trying to showcase their extravagant life.
2. Constantly try to impress. On social media, you can see people’s intentions behind why they are posting, why they are saying what they’re saying, and why they’re showing you what they’re showing you.
3. Brag. Adult men don’t need to brag or beat their chest and boast constantly.
4. Get loud to prove they are right. I always see this where men think they’ll get loud to gain respect.
5. Make excuses for their decisions. Confident men don’t overly explain why they did something.
6. People please. Confident men don’t apologize to everybody and say they’re sorry. They’re not trying to be a people-pleaser or a nice-guy. They are not doing things in order to get something in return. They do not intend to gain an advantage over you by doing something nice.
7. Chase ass. Confident men aren’t hypersexual in their thoughts or actions. They don’t put women on a pedestal, and they’re not constantly chasing women. Confident men have their agenda.
8. Get out of control. Confident men are in control and stoic in their beliefs. They know that there are things that can be changed and things that cannot. They don’t worry about the things that are outside of their control.
9. Talk sh^t and stab people in the back. Confident men don’t do these things, and they also do not gossip. Men who are confident and have integrity and character. If they have something to say, they say it. They don’t apologize for saying it either.
10. Act like a victim. Confident men are powerful and strong, and they choose their destiny. They are not victims.
11. Allow past failures to define them. Confident men know that sometimes things get messed up and must be figured out.
12. Allow anxiety to control them. Sure, people become nervous or anxious from time to time. But crippled anxiety or being overly worried is a problem. Go to Better Help for 10% off the first month of therapy and get matched with a therapist who will listen and help.
13. Dress like sh^t. Confident men dress well because they know that within the first 3 seconds upon meeting somebody, they form an opinion based on their nonverbal communication.
14. Not work out. Confident men don’t have sloppy bodies. They control what they can control, such as what their bodies look like.
15. Neglect grooming. Adult men don’t smell bad (bodies or breath) or have bad hygiene.
16. Do self-destructive things. Adult men don’t get sloppy or blackout drunk. They don’t abuse drugs or smoke.
17. Touch nicotine. Whether cigarettes or any other form of tobacco, confident adult men don’t go near it.
18. Hold grudges. Grudges are not healthy for anybody. Adult men do not get mad at things that happened years ago. They compartmentalize it and understand certain things aren’t good and that they happen. They’re not going to be mad or hold a grudge. They may not forget it, but don’t let it occupy time and mental bandwidth. This holds you down and prevents you from moving forward.
19. Be scared. Adult men are not fearful. They don’t allow fear to control their actions. You cannot expect to accomplish anything if you fear failure or rejection. You can’t wait for perfect timing. It doesn’t exist. You have to jump and then figure it out.
20. Not be willing to take risks. You’ll never fully realize your potential if you’re unwilling to take risks. You have to get uncomfortable.
21. Stay in toxic environments. Adult men do not stay in toxic relationships or environments. They want what’s best for themselves and will not settle for less. Confident men surround themselves with better people.
22. Hang out with losers. Confident adult men do not hang around with low-budget losers. Instead, they surround themselves with positive, uplifting people.
