CONFIDENCEMAXXING
Be egoistical. You are the priority. Straight posture. Don’t look around unnecessarily. Sculpt your body. Dress well. Focus on your mission. Become a mystery to others. Keep most things to yourself. Enter the room as if everyone were waiting for you. Make yourself comfortable. Speak slowly. Fear nothing. Don’t fake emotions. Make others want to copy your persona.
You can achieve anything you want if you act as you have already got it.
Confident people are not born that way.
It becomes their second nature.
I tried to give a man €15,900 for a Rolex & he essentially told me to fuck off…
.... & someone is going to quietly build a 7-figure training business off how unbelievably retarded these people are
Messaged him on WhatsApp. Told him exactly which one I wanted. Asked about VAT refund. Asked about Amex. Told him I'll be in the city soon
His response after all of that:
"Ok. You are welcome to visit our store"
This mf did not:
-Take my name
-Take my number
-Take a deposit
-Ask what time I'm coming
-Send me a link to pay
-Nothing
Just "you are welcome to visit our store"...
I found the same watch somewhere else. Bought it
That store lost €15,900 because a man making €900/mo couldn't type 2 more sentences in a WhatsApp chat
& this isn't a EU problem. I've dealt with luxury retailers worldwide & watched salespeople fumble the easiest close of their career because nobody taught them the one rule that matters…
The buyer who tells you WHAT he wants & WHEN he's coming is not a browser. He's a transaction with legs. Every second between "I want this" & "here's how we lock it in" is a second where he finds it somewhere else
A €500 deposit changes everything. "Let me hold this for you, small deposit & I'll have it ready when you arrive" turns a maybe into a commitment. Now I've got €500 trapped in his store & my brain is already rationalizing the purchase
Instead he let me float away with zero friction
There are luxury stores doing €20,000,000+ a year with salespeople who wouldn't survive a single shift selling kebabs at a street cart
The kebab guy asks "you want sauce?" That's an upsell. The kebab guy asks "large or extra large?" That's an anchored close. The kebab guy has more sales training than a man sitting behind €400,000 worth of Swiss watches
There is genuinely stupid money in building a sales training program for luxury retail
Walk into 50 high-end stores in any major city. Buy nothing. Document every fumbled close. Package the failures into a training system & sell it back to the stores losing €100,000s a year from employees who can't close a buyer who's already begging them to take his money
Lesson.
🇲🇦 LE MAROC A-T-IL VRAIMENT INTÉRÊT À TERMINER 1ER DE SON GROUPE ?
À LIRE ATTENTIVEMENT !
Partons du principe que le Maroc termine parmi les deux premiers du groupe C et que les deux qualifiés du groupe F sont les 🇳🇱 Pays-Bas et 🇯🇵 le Japon.
➡️ Si le Maroc finit 1er du groupe C, il affrontera le 2e du groupe F (Pays-Bas ou Japon).
➡️ Si le Maroc finit 2e du groupe C, il affrontera le 1er du groupe F (Pays-Bas ou Japon).
Jusque-là, la différence n'est pas forcément énorme, mais c'est ensuite que tout change. 👇
✅ Si le Maroc termine 2e de son groupe et passe les 16es, il se retrouvera dans la partie gauche du tableau et affrontera ensuite le 2e du groupe A ou le 2e du groupe B.
Pour rappel :
🇲🇽 🇿🇦 🇰🇷 🇨🇿 (Groupe A)
🇨🇦 🇧🇦 🇶🇦 🇨🇭 (Groupe B)
Sur le papier, ce sont deux des groupes les plus abordables de toute la compétition.
❌ En revanche, si le Maroc termine 1er de son groupe et franchit les 16es, il basculera dans la partie droite du tableau, et la le niveau monte immédiatement.
Il pourrait affronter le 2e du groupe E ou le 2e du groupe I :
🇩🇪 🇨🇼 🇨🇮 🇪🇨 (Groupe E)
🇫🇷 🇸🇳 🇮🇶 🇳🇴 (Groupe I)
Deux groupes qui figurent parmi les plus relevés de la Coupe du Monde et qui pourraient offrir des adversaires comme la France, l'Allemagne, le Sénégal, la Norvège ou encore la Côte d’Ivoire dès les huitièmes.
🤔 La question mérite donc d'être posée :
Est-ce qu'il ne serait finalement pas plus avantageux de terminer 2e du groupe C plutôt que 1er afin de bénéficier d'un parcours théoriquement plus accessible vers les quarts de finale ?
Bien sûr, dans une Coupe du Monde, personne ne choisit vraiment son classement... mais le tableau pourrait réserver quelques surprises. 👀🇲🇦🏆
3. Talk to strangers. Actually talk to them.
Not small talk. Real conversation.
Ask the guy at the cafe what he does. Chat to the person next to you. Be curious about people you'll never see again.
Most people are walking around starving for genuine human connection and too scared to initiate it. Be the one who does. You'll be shocked how good it feels and how much it pulls you out of your own head.
The cool thing is that you can train your body, tune your circadian rhythm, so that when bedtime arrives, you can fall asleep within a few minutes. Routine is the unlock.
1. Wake, light in eyes.
2. Final caffeine by noon.
3. Last food four hours before bed.
4. Screens off 60 minutes before bed.
5. A wind down routine to cycle down from the day. Walk, breathe, meditate, breath, work, a hobby, literally anything other than the phone. A book in hand is best.
This is it.
Everything learned spending millions on longevity.

Start here, it will change your life.
Bryan Johnson spent $2 million a year for five years trying not to die. He's tested longevity drugs, gene therapies, plasma transfusions, stem cell injections, the works. His final list of what actually works is mostly stuff your grandma would have told you for free.
Johnson is the most measured human alive. Hundreds of blood tests, 30 doctors on staff, his own brand of olive oil. The 41 tips he just sent his "immortal nieces and nephews": sleep 8 hours, walk after meals, see a friend weekly, lift heavy things, floss.
Researchers estimate 80 to 90% of his health gains come from those free habits, not from the gene therapy he flew to Honduras for or the 100-plus daily supplements he takes. Johnson says the same thing himself.
Harvard ran a study on relationships that lasted 85 years and followed 724 men from their teens to their nineties. The result: how long you live depends more on the quality of your relationships than on your genes, your IQ, or your social class. A separate study of 3.4 million people found loneliness raises your risk of dying early by about the same amount as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Tip #20, see at least one friend once a week, is doing real work.
Tip #11 says walk after meals. A 2025 study found that a 10-minute walk right after eating lowers your blood sugar spike more than a 30-minute walk done any other time of day. The spike is what wears down your heart and arteries over decades.
Tip #13 is lift heavy things. A study of about 2 million people found the strongest third had a 31% lower risk of dying than the weakest. You don't need a gym for this. Carrying groceries, lifting your kid, doing pushups in your living room, it all counts.
Sleep dominates the list with about a dozen tips. The data: under 7 hours of sleep raises your risk of dying by 14%, over 9 hours raises it by 34%. Seven to eight is the sweet spot.
Johnson dropped one of his most-hyped pills, rapamycin, this year because of side effects. He keeps simplifying. Even the guy who hired 30 doctors is landing on the boring stuff.
The longevity industry is worth around $80 billion. The advice with the strongest evidence costs zero.
Someone built a fitness app using the same psychological mechanics as gambling
This might work better than every normal fitness app 😭😭
You bet money on whether you’ll hit 10,000 steps today
If you fail, you lose your money
If you succeed, you split the money from everyone who didn’t
So disciplined people literally profit off lazy people
Most fitness apps try motivating you with streaks and notifications
This one motivates you with financial fear
Imagine realizing at 11:52pm you still need 1,700 more steps or you lose $30
Entire friend groups would be outside walking laps around their neighborhood before midnight trying not to lose their steppa challenge
It sounds stupid but this would probably motivate people better than any other fitness product
Would you use this yourself?
One of the strangest things about America 🇺🇸…
You meet people making $300k/year who are anxious, exhausted, medicated, and can barely sleep at night.
Then you go to Mexico 🇲🇽…
and see some guy running a small restaurant, barely breaking even…
but he’s laughing with friends, drinking mezcal at lunch, hugging customers, and sleeps perfectly fine at night.
The next pullback in the stock market this year, whenever and wherever that may be, you buy the living crap out of that dip if and only if for this sole reason below:
