Tommy Shelby is stone -cold confident and seemingly fearless, so in this video

we're going to break down what you can learn from him

to be confident in those high -pressure situations in your own life.

Also, the original version of this video was banned by YouTube, which is why you might recognize this re -uploaded updated version.

Please don't ban us again, YouTube.

Spoilers through season five to follow.

First off, perhaps the most noticeable thing about Tommy is that he

He rarely overreacts in situations of extreme pressure.

Tommy's calm, non -reactive demeanor is extremely unsettling to his adversaries.

But even more important, it's in this remaining calm

that he's able to put into practice all of the other strategies that we're discussing in this video.

So this piece is foundational.

Now, Tommy wasn't born cool as a cucumber.

None of us are.

He developed this trait through repeated exposure to life -threatening situations,

first in the war and then over and over and over again in the course of his rise as a gangster.

The same principle applies in our lives.

If we want to remain calm in certain situations, the most reliable way isn't simply by focusing on keeping a straight face or a deadpan stare.

In fact, the more you think about your facial expressions when you're nervous, the more likely you are to actually blush.

So even though people notice the unflinching face, the best way to get there is through what's called exposure therapy.

Essentially, you put yourself into less challenging simulations of whatever difficult scenario you're about to face.

So if you're going to interview, doing a mock interview with a friend or even touring the building

that you'll be interviewing in can go a long way to calming your nerves on the big day.

Or if you want to be more comfortable in social situations,

saying a single extra sentence to a service person can challenge you without triggering total panic.

But Tommy's experience also shows us what happens

if you expose yourself to overwhelming situations rather than gradations of slightly more challenging ones.

Now, outsmarting people requires more than just composure.

Tommy often has to persuade people that have every reason to hate him

and he exhibits three powerful tools that regularly keep him in control.

The first is his use of state -breaking questions.

Watch.

So the odd fellows want you to know that any deviation from your instructions will have

When we're under pressure, our natural response is to go with the flow

and passively accept the conversational pace set by someone who's in a position of power over us.

However, in doing so, we surrender our power during that conversation, which in a negotiation usually leads to an unfavorable deal.

This state -breaking question is a seemingly out -of -place question that breaks the one -sided conversational flow.

And from there, conversation is much easier to steer in a new direction.

In this case, Tommy uses it to assert his power despite the fact that he is imprisoned.

You visited your sister.

Hey.

What's your name, boy?

Interestingly, when Tommy does have power, he doesn't allow others to divert it away with their own state -breaking questions.

He simply continues down his original path rather than answering them.

Furthermore, he has a criminal profile which will make his actions explicable to the police.

In your life, you probably don't want to use this to introduce threats into a conversation, but it can be an incredibly persuasive tool,

especially when someone's emotional state is preventing them from moving forward productively.

For instance, if someone is feeling upset, asking a random lighthearted question can snap their state for long enough for them to consider more empowering possibilities.

And we saw this in the video that we did on Tony Robbins getting people out of depression.

What makes you hate yourself?

Is it the red shoes?

What?

Is it the red shoes?

No. Are you sure?

You have the fucking red.

Now, a simple question isn't going to instantly put someone on your side.

In fact, other people can be counted on to continue to pursue their own agendas, which is why we often see

Tommy get what he wants by finding a way to align his needs with the other persons.

Watch here as Tommy tries to convince another faction to join him in a war against the Italians.

He doesn't appeal to honor or to doing what's right, but to doing what's good for Alfie Solomon.

Now, in order to do this effectively, you cannot imagine that other people want the same things as you.

You must try to first view the world from their perspective.

Now, I know this may sound obvious but so few people follow this advice.

Instead, they offer others what they would want, never getting anywhere.

So before offering help, you need to make sure you understand the other person's world, which is why

Tommy comes to these meetings already understanding the position and temperament of the person that he's going to be speaking to.

Distillery provides one -tenth of your income.

Protection is another 10 % of the rest you make from the rice trucks.

I know you keep a gun in the drawer.

I know you keep it beside the whiskey.

I know.

You offer a deal of death.

And if after all of your research on someone, you're still unclear on what they want,

you can always just ask them in the course of conversation.

I want to know what you want.

One concrete area

that you can put this to use in your own life is in connecting with someone

that you might like as a mentor, or say a CEO, an influencer, whoever.

The internet makes it easier than ever to get in touch with these people,

but it also means that they get more of these requests than ever before.

So rather than the typical let's chat over coffee,

research a particular problem they may have and then offer to meet to discuss how specifically you can help.

This is a much, much more effective way to start that relationship.

But even beyond this particular scenario, the point is

that one of the best ways to get what you want

is to seriously consider how you can get other people what they want.

Now, this brings us to the next point.

When Tommy really needs something done, he doesn't just solve someone's problem.

He gives both the carrot and the stick, which is a much stronger motivation when you're trying to affect large changes.

Watch.

The nature of the deal is explained in my proposal.

I've booked you a suite at the Midland Hotel.

If you need anything in this city, just mention my name.

So you want to impress me, Mr. Shelby?

Also in the envelope is a check for £500 for your wife.

She can use it to buy a black dress

and a black horse with black feathers to pull a black

carriage with your body in it should you break the terms of the white flag.

Some people are motivated more by the prospect of gaining something, others by the fear of losing something.

100

And all of us are motivated when there is a particular path that assuages both of those desires, which is why

101

Tommy makes sure to hit on both whenever he needs someone to be all in on one of his plans.

102

You can see it again here.

103

This time, he does it in reverse order.

104

If those guns reach Belfast, your life in the force is over.

105

When I've achieved what I've set out to achieve, I will let you know where to find the guns.

106

You'll be a hero.

107

You'll probably get a medal.

108

This is a far superior persuasive strategy than simply commanding or threatening people, and it's incredibly helpful when you're trying to inspire any group of people.

109

So whether it's in school or work, when there's a team of people that you're trying to move towards a common goal,

110

or if it's in business, when you're trying to explain the value of a product that you're selling,

111

don't just talk about what someone can gain if they follow your vision, but instead on what they might miss out if they don't.

112

Now this takes us to the last piece, which is truly what makes

113

Tommy Shelby so unique and probably why so many people love him.

114

And it's his ability to turn trash into resources, lemons into lemonades, as the phrase commonly says.

115

But I wouldn't actually use that phrase because it's most often used to describe making the best of a bad situation.

116

In Tommy's case, he makes a bad situation better than if it had never happened in the first place.

117

For example, when there's a failed assassination attempt on his brother's life, he doesn't just look at the bright side of things,

118

that his brother is alive.

119

He uses that attempt to spread disinformation, telling everyone that Arthur, his brother,

120

is dead, which buys him time to recuperate and then eventually surprise and kill that season's big baddie, Luca Cangretta.

121

Similarly, Tommy is told that he needs to kill his friend Danny Wizbing to avoid all -out war with the Italian gangsters.

122

Clearly a bad situation.

123

But he makes it work out better than

124

if he didn't have to by using it as an opportunity to fake Danny's death,

125

which gets him a man who can operate in London without anyone even looking for him.

126

And it also gets him a hiding place for the guns that he stole at the beginning of the season, the supposed grave of his friend,

127

a place that no one would even think of looking.

128

Now, this might seem like it could only work in scripted dramas,

129

but this strategy of turning trash into resources is how some of the most elegant

130

and brilliant solutions are created in the real world.

131

The point is, the bad things in your life may only appear bad in a particular context.

132

If you could put those things into a completely new and different context, you can turn something that everyone else overlooked into a valuable resource.

133

So an extremely powerful question to ask when you're frustrated

134

or you wish a circumstance wasn't the case is how can the thing

135

that I least want become valuable towards another goal of mine?

136

And if you're looking for more guidance on building social power quickly, you might like to check out our course, Charisma University.

137

It is a step -by -step program for making huge strides in your confidence and charisma in less than 30 days guaranteed.

138

Over 15 ,000 viewers like you have joined, and here's what just a few of them have to say.

139

My biggest breakthrough has been gaining more confidence.

140

If you knew me a year ago, you'd see a socially awkward guy,

141

but that same guy had hidden confidence and charisma that has now been unleashed.

142

If you're reading this or listening right now, think about who you want to be in a year.

143

This course will teach you how to be that person.

144

Another young man used it in a school and says, the YouTube videos are great, but the courses are amazing.

145

Ever since I first started, I've gotten to know so many other people and their friends.

146

So many opportunities have opened up to me.

147

I've been invited to so many hangouts and it has been amazing. And finally, your course has been life -changing to the point where I

148

wake up in the mornings feeling like I've been transferred to a new person's body.

149

The person I kept dreaming about becoming before I found Charisma on Command.

150

It is incredible.

151

I found myself and I found what makes me happy.

152

And you can see more comments like those if you decide to join the course in the comments underneath the videos.

153

If you do so, you have a full 60 -day money -back guarantee for any reason,

154

which means you have plenty of time to go through the course, get all the value, see a transformation in your life,

155

and then decide if it was worth it.

156

Otherwise, you can get a refund.

157

158

159

161

But either way, I hope that you've enjoyed this video, and I look forward to seeing you in the next one.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
