Your boy is coming at you today to explain how to SKYROCKET your confidence by getting jacked.
Regardless of who you are, it’s likely that you’ve experienced having low confidence at one point or another. Earlier in my life, I barley had any confidence compared to what I have now.
From the ages 15-19 , I never understood why I wasn’t as confident as I thought I should be. Couldn’t put a finger on it.
I was a very good athlete… so I was always in pretty good shape. But not jacked. And didn’t have the pride I take in my appearance like I do now.
I think it’s important to note that we live in a society that now coddles people for having low confidence or low self esteem. Instead of having them play victim, we need STRATEGIES (like lifting weights) to get their ass back on track.
I know this because I used to play the victim card. “Oh this is BS… I’m not getting the girls I want and I’m just generally not that happy. I wish I could feel better about myself.”
It’s a complete LOSER way to think… and everyone should understand that you can 100% take the bull by the horns. Step up, have some discipline, and build your confidence and self esteem.
No one is going to do it for you. You need strategies like lifting, reading, improving your dating life, doing fun stuff.
If you play the victim card for not having any confidence, your life is going to get worse and worse. The mind is so much more powerful than people realize. You CANNOT have negative beliefs and expect to live a good life.
In a victim mentality, your mind will reinforce all your negative beliefs. If you live in an abundance mentality, your life will start to improve and confidence skyrocket.
It’s up to you & only you to change those and make yourself a winner and a conquerer.
Skyrocket Your Confidence: Pride & Mindset From Getting Jacked
For some reason whenever I think of mental toughness I think of Tim Grover. If you haven’t heard of him, I encourage you to check him out.
He trained MJ, Kobe, Wade, and many more guys. He talks about developing your mind so you have pride in what you do and be tough as NAILS. He’s all about developing self belief. No excuse type of guy.
He’s got a great book as well. Encourage you to check it out: Relentless
There’s the old saying… “take pride in what you do”. Well guess what, there’s some damn truth to it.
When you put in the work to build muscle you will take a tremendous amount of pride in yourself. You CANNOT feel low confidence and have self respect at the same time. Those 2 go in opposite directions.
I’m not talking about the pride that is full of egotism. This is the type of pride that DEMANDS a level of excellence from yourself based on the habits you’ve implemented.
You’ve built a body of work… NO ONE can take that away from you. If you can build a body why not build a fortune? Why not date the most beautiful women in the World?
You’ll take pride because you know you put in the work.
No wonder a ton of guys are suffering from low confidence… they haven’t worked and EARNED it yet.
Hate to break it to you, but you don’t just wake up one day thinking you can take on the World. It’s a feeling that’s built over a long period of time.
Guess what though… it’s an amazing feeling when you know you’ve built it yourself.
Instead of saying “this sucks… my life isn’t the way I want. When will it ever get better?”
You’ll look in the mirror and say “I’m in control of my success No one will be able to stop me from achieving what I’m meant to do. Look out… Im cruising down the freeway 100mph. Get out of my way.”
Skyrocket You: Increase Testosterone From Getting Jacked
Did you know that in 1945 the average 20 year old male had 9x the average testosterone level of the average 20 year old today?
9 TIMES higher. The average 20 year old today doesn’t even have enough testosterone to pick up 20 pound dumbbells or go ask for a cute girls phone number.
Enough testosterone to build a business or make money? Forget about it. They’d rather go eat Cheetos and watch Netflix for 8 hours a day.
Having high testosterone is the most important hormone for men to feel confidence.
How do you skyrocket your test? You start by attacking the gym and getting jacked.
If you are in your 20s or 30s, it’s going to be pretty fucking hard to have low testosterone if you are chiseled to the bone.
Guys with high testosterone don’t suffer from low confidence. They don’t suffer from depression. They don’t suffer from low motivation.
I can tell you from experience… your testosterone gets jacked up when you hit the gym hard. You have drive and willpower.
You start to reap the benefits 100%.
The endorphins released from working out are an incredible feeling. You’ll feel the testosterone flowing through your bloodstream.
Why Men Need High Testosterone:
Check out this story from our American History (most people don’t actually know history). As you read, think about if the average man today would have enough strength to do what’s below.
Think and Grow Rich Chapter 8 Decision (Story from American Revolution):
“”The Crown appointed Gage to supplant Hutchinson as the Governor of Massachusetts. One of the new Governor’s first acts was to send a messenger to call on Samuel Adams, for the purpose of endeavoring to stop his opposition–by FEAR.
We can best understand the spirit of what happened by quoting the conversation between Col. Fenton, (the messenger sent by Gage), and Adams.
Col. Fenton: “I have been authorized by Governor Gage, to assure you, Mr. Adams, that the Governor has been empowered to confer upon you such benefits as would be satisfactory, [endeavor to win Adams by promise of bribes], upon the condition that you engage to cease in your opposition to the measures of the government. It is the Governor’s advice to you, Sir, not to incur the further displeasure of his majesty. Your conduct has been such as makes you liable to penalties of an Act of Henry VIII, by which persons can be sent to England for trial for treason, or misprision of treason, at the discretion of a governor of a province. But, BY CHANGING YOUR POLITICAL COURSE, you will not only receive great personal advantages, but you will make your peace with the King.”
Samuel Adams had the choice of two DECISIONS. He could cease his opposition, and receive personal bribes, or he could CONTINUE, AND RUN THE RISK OF BEING HANGED!
Clearly, the time had come when Adams was forced to reach instantly, a DECISION which could have cost his life. The majority of men would have found it difficult to reach such a decision. The majority would have sent back an evasive reply, but not Adams! He insisted upon Col. Fenton’s word of honor, that the Colonel would deliver to the Governor the answer exactly as Adams would give it to him.
Adams’ answer, “Then you may tell Governor Gage that I trust I have long since made my peace with the King of Kings. No personal consideration shall induce me to abandon the righteous cause of my Country. And, TELL GOVERNOR GAGE IT IS THE ADVICE OF SAMUEL ADAMS TO HIM, no longer to insult the feelings of an exasperated people.”
Comment as to the character of this man seems unnecessary. It must be obvious to all who read this astounding message that its sender possessed loyalty of the highest order. This is important. (Racketeers and dishonest politicians have prostituted the honor for which such men as Adams died) .”
Oh but the average guy of today is discriminated against right? While the men of the past were risking their lives for freedom, the men of today sit on the couch and cry about how they can’t accomplish anything. It’s embarrassing.
You should have no excuse to not have high testosterone in our age today. You have the gym, perfect food, supplements, etc.
No more excuses for low confidence… build up your testosterone and skyrocket your confidence. No exceptions.
It’s pretty hard not to feel roaring confidence when you’ve spent 5 years in the gym making your body look chiseled.
It may be superficial… but when you look in the mirror and see muscles popping all over place it’s quite a feeling. Unfortunately most guys won’t get to experience this though.
This is because they aren’t willing to put in the work that it takes to look like this. It doesn’t happen right away, so they aren’t willing to make the sacrifice.
Getting jacked has a host of both physical and mental benefits. I truly think they are both extremely important.
In fact, I think the mental component is actually more valuable.
But if you are a young 20 something and struggling with confidence, looking like a lean muscle stallion is going to take care of a lot of insecurities. Trust me on that.
Not to mention how healthy you’ll be for life after getting this fit. Build it NOW.
