Dangerous confidence is essentially a quiet certainty built from confidence, discipline, and self-respect.
Dangerously confident men are not boasting, bragging, or constantly seeking validation. They are secure with who they are and truly know the value that they bring to the world. Having this happen is a result of going through seven phases.
The Seven Phases to Dangerous Confidence
Phase number one is to fix your visual credibility. Your appearance is a form of social leverage, so you need to pay attention to your personal branding. Your brain believes what it sees in the mirror, so you’ll feel better about yourself if you look good, dress sharply, and stay well-groomed. This helps your confidence to skyrocket, so you walk taller and have better interactions. You’re more willing to engage as well. You don’t need to dress like a model, but you do need to align your style with how you want to be perceived and received. Grooming is also another part of this visual credibility. Grow a beard, let your hair grow and flow, and have better skin. Get your first Tiege Hanley box 40% off + a FREE Pete & Pedro Sea Salt Spray!
Phase number two is to be physically capable and competent. You don’t need bulging biceps or six-pack abs, but you do need a strong body. Work out by lifting heavy weights 3 to 5 times a week. Exercise builds mental calluses, which help you endure hardships. Working out can be painful, but it makes you stronger, mentally and physically.
Phase number three is eliminating low-grade shame. Certain habits shouldn’t happen, and you’re not proud of them. They can rob you of your confidence. So stop drinking too much, sleeping around, looking at p^rn, and doomscrolling. Live with life with integrity.
Phase number four is mastering your money. You don’t need to make a million dollars, but you do need to have financial security. You don’t want your joy and confidence robbed because you’re insecure about how much money you have coming in. You may need a better job, a side hustle, or a second job. Also, live below your means and set a budget. Pay down high credit card debt and, if possible, reduce your car payment. Get your money straight.
Phase number five is the ability to communicate effortlessly. You want people to feel important and be heard. You need to listen more and speak less. You need to engage in active listening and communicate with anyone. Be able to share things without bragging. Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable, either. Make sure you show you have emotions and that you’re comfortable in your own skin.
Phase number six is upgrading your relationship standards. Don’t hang out with low-budget losers or bang less than spicy señoritas. Demand more from yourself and your relationships. Treat others the way you deserve to be treated. Don’t hang out with those who don’t treat you well. Likewise, hang out with people who deserve your time and who will help to change your life. The people you hang out with should have a positive impact on you. These people should be optimistic and make you feel good about yourself. They should encourage and uplift you, as well as challenge you.
Phase number seven is developing a life you don’t need to escape from. Don’t self-sabotage yourself because you don’t love your life. Live a life that’s inspiring and comfortable. There’s nothing unshakable and unstoppable about a man who is secure with herself.
