My experiments in lifestyle engineering gave me superpowers... If we want to understand James Bond, we have to understand his character on a deep level —his thought process, his background, his motivations, his philosophy of living. 1. Conquer Your Fears When James Bond says he knows fear, he means it, he understands it. It's not that he was always immune to fear, but rather that he knows fear well from experience. While most people hide in their comfort zone, Bond confronts his fears regularly. 2. Keep It Neat James always keeps things neat, so be sure to take time out each day for proper hygiene and grooming. 3. Dress to Impress Appearance is everything in this world, and though it doesn't seem fair, the truth is that people assume things about you based on how you dress. But style is more than that. It's a discipline and refinement, demonstrating care and attention to detail, which few men possess. The effort James Bond puts into his wardrobe communicates a number of positive traits like competence and self-esteem. 4. Train Your Body It's no secret that in order to be a good 00 Agent, James has to stay physically and mentally fit. If you sit around all day at work or at home, your body becomes weak. As your body loses its strength, energy, and flexibility, the mind follows in lockstep. A sedentary lifestyle is not conducive to good health and esteem. So, do yourself a favor - lift weights, bike, swim, run-anything to help build mental and physical strength, as well as endurance. You'll see that the quality of your life will increase substantially. 5. Learn Self-Defense Do you feel confident enough to protect yourself and your loved ones in a confrontation? James Bond is prepared for any threatening situation that might come his way. This includes hand-to-hand combat and firearms training. In order to help get into shape for his role as Bond, Daniel Craig learned Krav Maga, which combines Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, Judo, and Aikido for real world self defense. Choose what's right for you, and stick with it. As far as firearms are concerned, this will require some education and time at the firing range with a personal instructor and without. 6. Discipline Your Mind It's safe to say that Bond has stellar control of his thoughts and emotions. Keeping a clear head is absolutely necessary in his line of work, and life in general. Set aside some time for meditation every day, preferably after a cold shower. After your cold shower, you'll have the energy to sit and meditate for 5–10 min. Set a timer and focus on the gentle inhale and exhale of your breath. Finally, keep your living space clean. 7. Adapt to Change As a universal hero archetype, Bond is a mixture of culture and timelessness. In our hyper-saturated world of information, Bond adapts without compromising his values. Read daily and appreciate the finer things in life. Remember, there’s No Time To Die. ;) #jamesbond #becomejamesbond #jamesbondlifestyle #notimetodie #masculinity #alphamale Recommended Products: Merkur Long Handled Safety Razor: https://tinyurl.com/y7pws924 Feather Japanese razor blades: https://tinyurl.com/y2y9mjtz Colonel Conk Safety Razor Stand: https://tinyurl.com/y55lln2n Proraso Shaving Soap: https://tinyurl.com/y5hn39gr Omega Boar Bristle Shaving Brush (Budget option): https://tinyurl.com/y3zwqxxl Edwin Jagger Best Badger Shaving Brush (Pricier option): https://tinyurl.com/y2aw8mo2 Esquire's The Handbook of Style: A Man's Guide to Looking Good: https://tinyurl.com/y2jsn6e8 Weightlifting Shoes: https://tinyurl.com/y4c9nzp9 Weightlifting Belt: https://tinyurl.com/y2w5ql2c Resources: AlphaM: https://www.youtube.com/user/AlphaMconsulting Style O.G.: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStyleOG/featured Real Men Real Style: https://www.youtube.com/user/RealMenRealStyle Starting Strength program: https://startingstrength.com/ Art of Manliness Intro to Barbell Training with Mark Rippetoe: https://tinyurl.com/hrylxrg Art of Manliness Barbell Training Playlist: https://tinyurl.com/jbbeksg Wim Hof Method (for cold training): https://www.wimhofmethod.com/
