1
Not knowing how to conduct yourself, drinking too much to a point of inebriation is a big red flag.
2
You know, if you ever start stumbling or slurring your speech, you know, there's a time and a place for that.
3
But usually that's a big red flag for women, especially if you're out on dates.
4
For me, I will judge men harshly on bad driving.
5
If a man doesn't check his mirrors and he's not moving his car properly, I judge people on bad driving.
6
Again, bad language, using too much slang when you're supposed to be in a professional setting.
7
Knowing the difference between a casual and a professional setting is very important.
8
It's not just the language somebody uses
9
because the language I'll use with my friends is very different
10
to the language I'll use on a Zoom call with a multi-billionaire businessman.
11
So it's knowing the time and the place for certain types of behavior because as men, we can all be childish and we can all be juvenile, but you have to be able to distinguish one from the other.
12
And there's people who I've met who certainly don't know how to present themselves to somebody,
13
even somebody like myself who's wealthy and they're trying to pitch me this business idea.
14
They show up and they're acting as though we're two friends down the pub, even though I don't know them.
15
That's a huge red flag.
16
You know, they should at least make the effort to try to come across as refined as possible.
17
And if they're incapable of doing it or incapable of spotting a situation where they should be doing it in, then it's probably not the kind of person that I'd want to do business with, network with, be friends with.
18
Elegance in a woman, to me, is somebody who's never going to embarrass or humiliate you and somebody you'd be very proud to show off.
19
So I don't know if women see it that same way in men, but if you come across as an elegant man,
20
that's the kind of man that she wants to show to her friends, to her parents.
21
Lots of women I date are very keen to show me to their friends
22
or their parents or their families for whatever reason, in the same way that I'd want to show off a beautiful woman to my friends.
23
But when there's any rough edges, that's the kind of thing that will put you off wanting to show somebody off.
24
So if a woman swears a lot, talks in a very bad manner, maybe has a really horrible accent, you know, dresses a bit too revealing,
25
that's the kind of thing that will make you think, okay, this woman's all right.
26
I like her.
27
I'll keep her at home, but I'm not going to introduce her to my friends.
28
So elegance is certainly something that women should strive for and men as well.
29
The first step to giving a proper handshake is not being a weakling
30
because if you're weak and skinny and scrawny and you try to give this really hard handshake, it may be a firm handshake, but I also know you're trying too hard.
31
Whereas if you've got big forearms, big hands and big shoulders and you've been training and you look like a strong guy, I expect your handshake to be firm.
32
The number one thing when people say firm handshake is people who don't know how to meet and greet men.
33
They think that you have to squeeze the hand.
34
You don't have to squeeze the hand at all, less than half a centimeter of actual movement, but your hand should be rigid and unmovable.
35
You can't have a malleable hand in someone's hand where, you know, if they squeeze it slightly, your fingers are going to bend.
36
So nice firm hand.
37
You grab and squeeze just half a centimeter.
38
That's it.
39
No crushing.
40
No trying to show you're stronger than anyone else.
41
It's just the fact that your hand moves and doesn't give anything back.
42
That makes a firm handshake.
43
If you start squeezing people's hands, they're going to think you're a dick.
44
There's no correct answer for which accent is acceptable and which one isn't.
45
However, some accents are better than others, which is a shame because you can't really control your accent.
46
However, regardless of what your accent is like and what your speaking voice is like, you can always tell the intelligence behind somebody's accent,
47
depending on the language they use, the vocabulary they use, the vernacular they use, the way they pause, the way that they take their time when putting thoughts together,
48
the way they intonate their words.
49
So I know very smart people who are Chinese, Nigerian, Indian, who do speak with their heavy accent.
50
However, you know that there's a brain behind that accent.
51
So if you're lucky enough to be born with a British or maybe an American accent, and you're not using your voice to your full potential,
52
it's one of those instances where you'll always get outpaced by somebody who's more obsessed than if you're born with natural talent.
53
So if you're born with a BBC British accent, which I don't quite have, but I guess that would be the top rank of accents in the world, in my opinion.
54
There's an Indian guy who can sell more than you and do more business than you and close more deals than you, despite the fact that his accent is a disadvantage.
55
That's just because he works harder than you.
56
So make sure that you do work on your vocabulary.
57
Download stupid apps, word of the day.
58
Read 20 new words a day and read what they mean.
59
Learn their definitions.
60
Try to include them into your everyday vocabulary.
61
Yeah, you're really doing yourself a huge disservice if you don't try to maximize your speaking voice.
62
The best way to cultivate your voice, besides expanding your vocabulary to me, would be reading out loud.
63
Take a book that you like or a book that isn't something very simple, no children's books, obviously, and read them out loud.
64
It's an exercise that everyone used to have us doing in school.
65
We probably don't understand why our teachers used to make us do this.
66
However, the way that stories are written and the way
67
that people speak in books and the way that sentences are put together, you can tell how it's supposed to be read.
68
You can tell you're not supposed to just zoom through all the words like you do in your head
69
when you're mentally reading it.
70
So literally read it out loud.
71
You can imagine how these characters are speaking to each other.
72
You can imagine how they're trying to convey themselves, whether it be a sad moment of the book, an action-packed part of the book, you know, somber, happy, it doesn't matter.
73
You know what the characters are feeling at the time.
74
So read out loud.
75
And then when you find yourself speaking with your friends, you find yourself talking really fast, you know, you're umming and ahhing and you can't get your words together like this, then slow the fuck down.
76
Slow down, think of what you want to say before you say it
77
and try to convey it in a very articulate, compendious way.
78
There is a trick that I can tell young men that will help them close business deals, help them get girlfriends, help them make friends, help them get into the circles that they want to get into.
79
And it's a stat, I guess, of yourself that you can expand throughout your entire life and you should never stop expanding it.
80
And that would be general knowledge.
81
General knowledge is super important because I remember I was sitting with one of the sheikhs in Dubai and he had, there was no alcohol at this house.
82
Of course, it was a dinner event and they start passing around this wood
83
that you burn and you smell the scent coming off the wood.
84
And I knew exactly how it was made and how it was cultivated.
85
If you don't find it in the wild, which is very hard nowadays because it's all extinct, you have to drill certain holes into these trees
86
and infect the trees with a certain type of mold and wait for the wood to go petrified.
87
And I was explaining this process to him, which he already knew, but he was super impressed
88
that I understood this part of Arabic culture and what this product was exactly.
89
And general knowledge will always impress people.
90
I can sit down with most people and have a conversation about most topics, irregardless of what it is.
91
There's something that I will know about it.
92
And as a young man, there's no reason to just, if you like sales and internet marketing, only read about that.
93
Spend your spare time learning about things that you don't think are particularly useful.
94
Maybe spend your spare time learning about things that you right now have no business knowing.
95
Yachts, the different brands and makes of private jet, learn all of this.
96
because when you start to sit with important people, you can at least have an idea of what they're talking about and interject in the conversation, perhaps with something they don't know.
97
And that has made me more friends and more connections with men, women, businessmen, anyone who I was trying to get connected to than maybe anything else.
98
General knowledge.
99
You have to work on it.
100
See, I like audio books.
101
And even right now, you say you don't see me learning things.
102
I am four hours into a 17-hour audio book course, lectures on the Vikings and Norse mythology and Norse history.
103
Why?
104
So the last two hours when I was in my room, I was listening to it.
105
So you don't see me learning this stuff, but I just find so many things interesting that I will make sure
106
that instead of listening to music or doing other things, I'm filling my brain with information.
107
So every day I'm learning something new.
108
I don't think a day goes by when I don't learn something new from somewhere.
109
But yeah, going down rabbit holes is always very interesting on the Internet.
110
If you find an interesting fact out about something, then read up more.
111
I mean, Wikipedia is a tremendous resource.
112
Everyone's forgotten about it.
113
It's kind of fallen out of fashion, I think.
114
but it is a tremendous resource and when it comes to history
115
and battles and world leaders and things like
116
that there are literally clickable links from each page to the next page to the next page
117
and you could sit and read and learn entire eras of history
118
or entire 20-year periods in an hour or two
119
if you are determined enough and this information is maybe not useful for making money
120
and maybe not useful in the long run but
121
if you impress someone like me who you're trying to do business with with your knowledge on something
122
that i find interesting then i'm going to like you more and I'm more likely to sign the contract.
123
There's nothing wrong with being a gentleman.
124
The only thing that there's a problem with today is simping.
125
People on the internet who are pretty much incels who subscribe
126
to a very toxic idea of what red pill masculinity is
127
will see me with this beautiful girl having purchased these flowers and think simp.
128
For all the young men out there who get very confused by the terms used on the internet, I would say simping is one thing and one thing only.
129
Simping is an unfair exchange of value.
130
That's what simping is.
131
If a girl doesn't know I exist and I found her address, I'm sending flowers to her house just to make her happy.
132
That very much is simping.
133
If I am waiting by the door to my office, going into work and trying to open the door for every single woman in the hope that they'll recognize me, that is simping.
134
Buying flowers for a work colleague who isn't interested in you is simping.
135
However, if you are trying to get a woman to take you seriously in terms of starting a relationship with her,
136
then very few things you can do can be considered simping.
137
Because as I said, that's an unfair exchange of value.
138
If the value you get at the end is a girlfriend or maybe even a wife or family, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with buying them flowers,
139
opening the door, opening their car door.
140
Even if you pull up at her house, jump out, run around, open it up, let her in, close the door, run right back around and get in the driver's seat.
141
These are all very standard gentlemanly moves that you can make.
142
It's when you're making them for women who will never have a serious interest in you, that's when it becomes simping.
143
Elegance in men is a lot more about behavior than the way you dress.
144
It's not a costume you can put on.
145
It's very much your mannerisms and the way that you behave.
146
If you were to put me in sneakers and sweatpants,
147
I would still fit in in a top-end restaurant more so than I would have done at 19 wearing a full suit.
148
It's the way you open doors for people, the way that you greet the waiters, the way that you greet the staff, the way that you treat your guests.
149
If you're driving a lady particularly and you're not in the West where they will become radical feminists, by all means, get out the car first,
150
walk around the side, open the door.
151
It's something that you can't wear.
152
It's something that you have to be.
153
So read up tips on basic etiquette, how to hold your knife and fork, how to hold a glass of wine by the stem and not by the bowl of it at the top.
154
And you'll fit in a lot more at the better places and seem a lot more elegant, regardless of what you're wearing.
155
It depends on the setting that you're talking about.
156
If you're setting yourself amongst high value men and you want to see more gentlemanly, then certainly cutting out foul language in the way you speak is the way.
157
The one trick, I say trick, I guess the one trait and the one behavior I like is
158
if somebody is getting up or leaving a table to stand up yourself.
159
And also when anyone wants to greet you or to shake your hand, whether it be male or female, never do it sitting down.
160
If a man comes over to me and is about to walk over and sit at my table, I'll never shake his hand sitting down.
161
I'll never say hi to a woman and give her a half hug sitting down.
162
You always stand up, look the man in the eyes and shake his hand, or you stand up, look at the woman in the eyes, give her a kiss on both cheeks.
163
Sometimes it's three, sometimes it's one, depending on what country you're from, but never, ever greet people from your seat.
164
That is the number one red flag.
165
And also it's one of the most important because it's usually people's first impression of you.
166
Yeah.
167
I mean, I've seen a lot of variations and to be fair, if you're a worldly person, there are a bunch of variations to this.
168
I think in Southeast Asia, I've been in India, Thailand, in Vietnam, that's when people will give you the double handshake.
169
They'll grab your hand, but that's very much a sign of being a subordinate.
170
A guy who you tip heavily at a hotel will grab your hand.
171
Thank you, sir.
172
Thank you, sir.
173
There are different etiquettes and ways to bow to certain people in Japan.
174
I know you always have to bow lower than the person you're bowing to if he's in a position of seniority, but Japan is not a place I hang out a lot at.
175
But before you go to anywhere new, I would certainly look up the little traits within the culture and try to play along as best as you can,
176
because it's usually appreciated.
177
The real world used to have a lot of hype around it.
178
And the hype was created by the fact that it was Andrew and I who created an online educational platform.
179
I would say that the real world has now traded hype, it hasn't got hype anymore, with legacy.
180
I feel like the people involved in making the real world run have proven themselves time
181
and time again as competent professors, competent teachers.
182
The people who run the tech have proven themselves as extremely competent administrators of the school.
183
I think that Andrew and I could completely take our hands off of it
184
and have no input inside of the school itself.
185
And it would run very, very well for years and years on end.
186
I think that the real world now is a more exciting place to be than it's ever been.
187
It's still the same great price.
188
We still have not increased the price level for it.
189
And I don't think we ever will.
190
There's still no pay to play to get interaction from the professors, et cetera.
191
But that is something that may come in the future as and when their time is more and more in demand.
192
But I'm just very, very proud of the fact that it's something that Andrew and I created, but you could take it away from me and Andrew,
193
and you could have somebody else own it and somebody else market it, and it would still be in its current form, an absolutely fantastic product.
194
Try to distance your mindset from the real world just being Andrew Tate's university
195
and take Andrew out of it and just look at it as a true alternative to university,
196
a true alternative to traditional education where you can learn the skills you need to make money on your own time today.
197
The key behind selling anything is identifying a need.
198
And we're very lucky with a product
199
and a school like the real world in the way that it can fulfill basically everybody's need.
200
There's nobody who's looking at making money online
201
and utilizing their skills in front of their computer to generate an income that can't be satisfied with the real world.
202
So back when I used to sell windows and doors to people, it was a relatively complicated pitch.
203
You'd find out what the problems with their homes were.
204
Was it aesthetic?
205
Did the house look ugly?
206
Was the house too cold?
207
Was the house too hot?
208
Was the house not secure enough?
209
And you'd identify these various things based on where they lived, what their house looked like, what the house felt like inside,
210
if there were drafts, and then you'd try to sell them whichever home improvement product you liked.
211
However, there isn't a single person here who interacts with me who doesn't understand
212
that they need to increase their skill levels and certain methods of wealth creation and content creation on the internet especially.
213
Even myself.
214
I, for one, I'm not so adept with AI.
215
AI image generation, AI content creation.
216
I'm lucky
217
and blessed enough to be in a position where I can hire people to do this for me
218
and I can outsource people to do this for me.
219
I have the real world professors who can do this for me.
220
I also have real world students.
221
But you, if you don't know how to use AI, can certainly use the real world.
222
If you shop on Amazon and you buy items, as opposed to being a consumer, why not run your own Amazon web store, become a supplier.
223
Again, you can use the real world.
224
Internet marketing is a very important part of what me and Andrew do for our brand and our business, and we are arguably the best in the world at it.
225
Well, where can you learn this?
226
The real world.
227
And who are you learning from?
228
Arguably the most famous and successful internet marketers of all time and the people behind their strategies.
229
So it's a very easy product to sell if you're a salesman telling you to sign up.
230
And it's why I don't really have to tell people to sign up
231
that much because a few moments of investigation into what the real world is and what is taught inside of it,
232
and you understand it's very easily worth $49.99 a month.
233
Maybe you don't care much about making money.
234
Maybe you just want to get into shape.
235
Maybe you just want to take your nutrition more seriously while learning these things for fun.
236
Maybe you're already a millionaire.
237
Good.
238
Then you have a health and fitness professional to teach you inside of the real world.
239
Who's health and fitness professional?
240
Me, Tristan Tate, multi-millionaire.
241
You have my health and fitness guy inside the real world
242
and you can access them all for a lot less than I used to pay him.
243
So really it's a product that sells itself.
244
I mean, if you're not a member of the real world and you think you have no use for this school, I assure you, you are wrong.
245
So don't sign up.
246
I don't care.
247
If you're trying to sell the real world to people whose minds are locked into the matrix programming, you're probably not going to succeed
248
because their objections to the product are actually more objections to Andrew and myself than the product at all.
249
They haven't looked into the product.
250
They don't know what it does.
251
It's like seeing Matthew McConaughey in those old Lincoln commercials.
252
Do you remember?
253
And he talks about, yeah, I like driving a Lincoln.
254
If I hate Matthew McConaughey, if I hate him with all of my guts, I don't really care what a Lincoln drives like.
255
I don't care what features it has.
256
I don't care how the steering is.
257
I don't care how the handling is.
258
I'm not going to go and test drive a Lincoln because I hate Matthew McConaughey.
259
Now, with all marketing strategies that use celebrities and famous people, this is a relatively black and white way to think.
260
And it does work in the way
261
that people who love the celebrity are going to buy into the product
262
and people who hate them aren't going to buy into the product.
263
But do I actually have any major objections to Lincoln automobiles?
264
I've never sat behind the wheel of one, but I don't really like Matthew McConaughey.
265
I don't want to be like him.
266
So the brand doesn't speak to me.
267
I think the objections people are going to come across
268
when trying to sell the real world or try to advise friends to join the platform are going to be like, well, aren't Andrew and Tristan bad guys?
269
Aren't they criminals?
270
Well, there are lots of millionaires
271
and billionaires in the world who in fact do have criminal records and who in fact do commit criminal felonies.
272
I'm not one of them, and Andrew isn't one of them.
273
However, whether or not you like Andrew or I, you have to understand that we are fantastic internet marketers.
274
That's the reason why you hate us, or it's the reason why you like us.
275
So we obviously know what we're talking about, and there isn't a single person on the planet who could say Andrew and I don't understand how to make money.
276
So if I'm teaching you how to make money, you better listen.
277
O.J.
278
Simpson, may God rest his soul, was actually an accused murderer.
279
He was not convicted, but he was accused.
280
And the general consensus is that he did in fact murder his ex-wife.
281
Now, if he released a course teaching you how to be a great American football quarterback, you better buy it.
282
Does it really matter that he committed X crime
283
or you don't personally like him or you have any personal gripe or issue with OJ Simpson?
284
He was one of the best quarterbacks of all time.
285
So if you want to learn how to play American football, there would be nothing wrong with learning from him.
286
There are ways to overcome those objections, but I wouldn't waste your time with them.
287
If people are so set in their mindset that they wish to believe that I, a man obviously worth hundreds of millions of dollars, because you've seen my spending habits, you've seen the cars I drive,
288
you've seen the private jets, you've seen all the stuff that I do.
289
If somebody really believes that I had to make that money criminally, or I somehow had to exploit somebody to make that money, then there's no helping them.
290
There's no helping them.
291
That's just somebody being stupid.
292
And stupid people, the real world really isn't for them.
293
It's for the forward thinking.
294
It's for the people who think outside of the matrix programming, outside of the box, and actually maybe want to make a difference in their lives.
295
I think that a lot of people lean into the stuff the mainstream media say, whether it's about me or whether it's about COVID or whether it's about foreign wars,
296
because it's the easy standpoint to take.
297
Your life's crap.
298
You have no money you have no girlfriend, well, it's fine.
299
Maybe my weight problem isn't my fault.
300
I need to take some antidepressants.
301
The food I eat has nothing to do with me being fat.
302
It's normal.
303
It's healthy to watch porn all day.
304
And they lean into these narratives because it's a very easy way of escapism.
305
It's a very easy way of putting all your sins on somebody else.
306
Instead of finding Jesus Christ, they find mental health or food or depression or maybe the mainstream news.
307
And they're like, okay, well, the whole world is ruined because of Vladimir Putin, for example.
308
Well, that explains why my life sucks.
309
You can't really help these people snap out of it
310
because there's enough people in the world who have the mindset of a winner.
311
There's enough people in the world who do want to go out there
312
and make changes in their life and find the success that is available to anybody.
313
Well, from a networking standpoint, the number one thing you have to remember, because I'm now at a stage in my life where a lot of people want to get to know me.
314
So I see it from the other end.
315
As a younger man, I would introduce myself to people and try to get to know them because they were important.
316
Now I'm on the other side of the equation.
317
The main thing to remember is that if you treat people like you're a fan, then they're going to treat you like you're one of the fans.
318
That's it.
319
If you treat people like a celebrity, they're going to treat you like a fan.
320
So many years ago, even when I was not famous and not even relatively successful, before I had any money, when I would meet famous people,
321
I met a few famous actors through my kickboxing.
322
You'd speak to them one-on-one like a normal person.
323
You'd introduce yourself.
324
You'd ask them their name even, not in an obnoxious way, even if you already know what it is.
325
And the best way to go about it is
326
when you're working the room and you finally get face to face with these people.
327
Do not ask for selfies.
328
Do not ask for pictures.
329
Do not act shocked or surprised or like a fan.
330
Do not worship them.
331
When I was sitting with that famous rapper the other day, just sat down on the couch.
332
We were shooting the shit man to man for over 45 minutes, an hour.
333
I didn't ask him about his songs.
334
I didn't ask him about his music.
335
And we just talked like men.
336
So that's the best way to network, I guess, is that when you finally do get the opportunity to speak to people, speak to them like a normal person.
337
Otherwise, they're never going to take you seriously.
338
I would say, yeah, absolutely.
339
Get a commission-only sales job.
340
Get a sales job that offers you no basic salary because it teaches you lots of things.
341
One, the art of sales and closing the deal and actually bringing money in is very important.
342
But two, it teaches you work ethic and hunger.
343
Because when I worked commission-only sales jobs, it was a matter of, I'm not going to eat unless I sell these windows.
344
And I'd take a three-hour drive down to whichever house I was going to give the presentation in.
345
I'd sit there, stare in the mirror, splash some water on my face, snap into sales mode, knock on the door, and then make my presentation.
346
And I was very, very good.
347
And yeah, sales is a skill that Andrew and I have even to this day, but you have to understand absolutely everything from the camera that's recording me to the chair I'm sitting on, to this wooden paneling.
348
There's somebody in every single company that makes everything that is somehow in charge of sales and marketing.
349
So just think about things.
350
Think about the items around you in the room.
351
Think about the items you use every day.
352
When you go and buy something, why did you buy it?
353
Why did you buy it and who convinced you to buy it.
354
You could be ordering a coffee from Starbucks.
355
Why?
356
Why are you ordering the coffee from Starbucks?
357
Who behind the desk of Starbucks HQ all those years ago sat
358
and came up with the strategy that made you know what the brand is about
359
and go there and actually buy their coffee?
360
Obviously, boycott Starbucks, but that's just an example.
361
But think about it when you buy things.
362
Think about your reason for buying them.
363
And then your mind will start thinking a lot more like a salesman.
364
Yeah.
365
If you're leaving university or high school, sales is definitely the field you should get into.
366
It's the field you should get into because no matter what you learn
367
and no matter what skillset you actually develop on top of sales, you have to convince people to use your product or service one way or another.
368
Andrew and I are very good at sales, but anything you learn inside of the real world, even, whether it be AI content creation, that's all well and good and you could be the best in the world.
369
But if you can't convince people, if you can't convince people to use your service and actually pay you money to do the things that you're good at, then it doesn't matter.
370
It's all for nothing.
371
So you should definitely, definitely get into sales.
372
I'll be perfectly honest.
373
Geography is one of the most important things to that.
374
There's about five or six cities in the world where the people hang out
375
and you have to know the places in those cities where the people hang out.
376
So again, you have to have your dress code, right?
377
You have to have your manners, right?
378
You have to have at least some money to be able to get get into the door of those places.
379
The world works in a very strange way when it comes to high-level men and especially beautiful women as well.
380
Imagine it in terms of three different rooms
381
and one room is free to walk inside and it's where all the fat chicks and the brokies hang out.
382
One room costs $2,000 to walk inside just to get in the door.
383
And there are the average looking girls and the guys with a bit of money.
384
And then one room costs $100,000 to walk into.
385
And that's where all the 10 out of 10s hang out
386
and all the millionaires and billionaires and people you want to network with.
387
That's exactly how the world actually works.
388
That's not an analogy
389
because all of the places where the people who you want to meet are costs at least some money, or you have to have some type of reputation
390
or some type of standing or some type of network or good friends to actually get into these places.
391
So if you're in Bucharest, Romania, your odds of running into a high value person who
392
you think is going to be of any use to you is pretty much zero
393
because I probably don't want to talk to you and neither does Andrew and you don't know anyone else in the city.
394
But Los Angeles, certainly, Miami, New York, London, Dubai, Singapore, there are places in the world where the people hang out.
395
And depending on what you want to do and who you want to know, all depends on where you go.
396
And then you just have to work your way up until you're in the same room as people.
397
That all depends on who you're trying to meet.
398
But I would say the number one would be health and fitness.
399
People will take you a lot more seriously if your clothes fit well
400
and you're muscularly built and you're strong and you go up and give a firm handshake.
401
If you're a fat sack of shit, people are not going to take you as seriously.
402
That's just the way that the world works.
403
So that's the base that you have to work off of as a young man, because maybe your IQ isn't that high, but maybe you're a nutritionist and personal trainer.
404
Nutritionists and personal trainers to the ultra wealthy and to the celebrities of the world do very, very well.
405
In fact, I heard of one, actually.
406
He was gifted a Ferrari for all of his hard work, but then he was arrested and had his car stolen by the police.
407
That's quite an amusing story.
408
But yeah, if he didn't have his particular skillset, I would never met him and I never would have associated with him and he never would have worked for me.
409
He never would have bought that Ferrari.
410
On top of health and fitness for making a good first impression, your ability to speak, your speaking voice, because that communicates into everything you do, whether it's sales and marketing,
411
website design, fitness training, whatever you think you have to offer people, you have to be able to convey the idea to them.
412
You have to be able to explain the idea to them.
413
Again, sales skills.
414
I advise anybody, if you're young and you're broke and you don't have a job, take up a sales job.
415
Doesn't matter what it is.
416
Doesn't matter if you're selling windows or newspaper advertisements over the phone.
417
Take up a sales job because life is sales.
418
My cameraman had to sell me his skills before I hired him.
419
Even meeting beautiful women is sales.
420
You have to convince them to let you waste their time and spend time with them.
421
So everything is sales.
422
So your sales skills, your speaking voice, your health and fitness, and your general appearance are all the most important things.
423
Spending a lot of money is an investment in your city.
424
Spending a lot of money on vacation, if I'm somewhere where I'm never going to be again, it perhaps matters a lot less.
425
But even if you do something stupid, very stupid, even if you go to the local casino
426
and you gamble $50,000 and say goodbye to everyone and smile and walk out with a smile on your face, you are now a well-known person.
427
If you go out to a club and you spend $25,000 on champagne, a crazy spend that they are never used to seeing, you'll be surprised at how often you get asked back and invited back.
428
There's a nightclub actually in Belarus that still messages me to this day, when are you coming back to Belarus?
429
Because they never had anyone walk in there and spend $30,000.
430
So it's a very good way of getting known.
431
And yeah, it is absolutely an investment.
432
It's an investment in your reputation.
433
It's an investment in your reputation
434
and it's an investment in terms of what people think of you as a man and your status and your standing, I guess, in the hierarchy of your city.
435
Networking is all about making it.
436
So you can't just network after you've made it.
437
You have to have armed yourself with a skill set that makes you useful to people.
438
It's no good, you know, becoming the man in your hometown, living in LA, you know, networking, working your way up, knowing that you can get into the best bars, the best restaurants, et cetera.
439
And then when you're there, just being a jackass and not having any skills and not having anything to offer people.
440
If you come up to me and say, hey, Tristan, I'd like to work with you for you.
441
You better have something good to say.
442
So it's not just the networking aspect of it.
443
It's what you're doing in your spare time.
444
What are you reading?
445
What are you learning?
446
What can you possibly offer people?
447
Because people like me don't really need money, so I don't care about your business idea.
448
You probably need my marketing skills more than I need you and your business idea.
449
I don't care about hiring you because I have the best people to do all of the jobs I want, the best cameraman, the best security guards.
450
So if you don't have something really unique and special to offer the people who you're trying to meet, you're just going to come across as someone who's pestering them.
451
and being pestered is very annoying when you're famous.
452
If you look at life like a video game, anything that increases one of your stats is a worthwhile hobby.
453
I think that playing chess will make you more intelligent, helps your critical thinking, reading books makes you more interesting and more knowledgeable.
454
Any type of sport or physical training makes you stronger, fitter, better looking.
455
It's gonna make you live longer.
456
So whatever hobby you want to pursue and whatever you wanna do, just make sure it's something that makes you better as a person.
457
I mean, I know young men who make jewelry, who make knives, you know, that's a very productive hobby because it's a business that they're training themselves up to do.
458
Just try to avoid things like video games because video games actually increase nothing.
459
They help you in no way at all.
460
I would argue that they probably make you less healthy, more lazy.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
