Raising A Gentleman

[gungerjim]

Personal responsibility

The greatest thing you can learn is personal responsibility. There is nothing to be gained from moaning about something not going your way if you haven't done everything in your power to get it. You are in charge of your life and should behave as such. If it doesn't go your way and you have done all you can, dust yourself off and work towards what come next. If you haven't done all you can then you should know who to blame. You live in a time when every thing is someone else fault, that if you own your actions this will make you stand out , people will view you as a man of conviction.

Always go for women that you think are out of your league, you never know your luck. She may be fed up with being treated like a porcelain doll and find your approach refreshing , she may find you more attractive than you think. Don’t just see her exterior though, get to know her personality and if you click, have some adventures together. It worked for me, and if it hadn’t you wouldn’t have been born.and if she isn’t interested your no worse off than you were before.

Gentleman’s Essentials

Learn to wetshave. Nothing makes you feel cleaner than a proper shave. Don’t rush it, it’s all about the prep. First wash the face, then use a face scrub, it’ll get rid of any dead skin (think raking leaves before you mow a lawn). Then apply a small amount of conditioner and leave for two or three mins. Rinse off and apply a shave cream, (not gel or mouse as these draw moister out of the hair, you need this to soften it). Get a clean blade and run down face with grain, rinse after each stroke. When you’ve shaved whole face, if your not happy cream and shave again, rinse face and wet an alum bloke and rub over shaved area. This is an anti-septic and will sterilise any small nicks and prevent shaving rash. Rinse with cold water. Dry and apply aftershave balm and then a moisturiser . Don’t put aftershave on any area that you shave as this will dry the skin. Your good to go. If you have the time and funds treat your self to a hot towel shave in a good barber shop once a month.

Raising a young gentleman

You can tell the size of a man by the size of the things that bother him. A small minded man will be upset by petty things, save you outrage for things that deserve it, things that make life hard for others like inequality, injustice. Sure life may seem harder for you, but it will reward you in ways that aren’t immeadatly apparent. No one that is worth your time is impressed by the man that flys of the handle at a waiter/ess for no reason

Raising a young gentleman. Every time you go out, dress as if you are going to meet the love of your life. Make the effort, you’ll feel better and people will see you differently. Don’t put yourself in debt for it, keep to your means but look smart. It will reap you benefits that could last a lifetime. #gentleman #youngman #lessonsforlife
