That laid back attitude is what pulls ya in.
I have also noticed he is a man of few words. No cracking jokes, no extra fluffy words. Every thing he says is on point.
Only Talking when its necessary is a great way to put more weight on your words!

Tommy had something most people don't. He had no fear of death as he had faced it many times during the war. He, basically, had nothing to lose as he felt he was living on borrowed time anyway. Combine that lack of fear with an analytical mind and you have a very strong personality indeed.

I think the key is not to let emotion control your actions. He may seem quiet and unhurried, but you can tell his brain is going 250 mph. Being unemotional and confident is not just something you start doing one day. It takes a long time to get to that point.

Being calm in almost every situation comes easy for those of us that are dead inside..

Body language goes a long way. Things like: standing tall, taking up more space, not crossing your arms tightly, and making good eye contact. It's the difference between "he looks so awkward" and "he's the strong silent type."

[gregbors]

Yeah, Cillian Murphy is always charismatic, because he’s a great actor.

There is a LOT of truth to the statement, "Fake it till you make it.". When I was a little kid, I was bullied relentlessly. Every day in school was hell. My mom, who used to be a military police officer, told me it was because I looked and acted like a victim. She told me basic things like walking with my head up, my shoulders back, walk slower, etc. Even though I had ZERO confidence, I did those things. Eventually I learned how to fight. I literally became more confident by faking having confidence. Eventually, other aspects of confidence evolved naturally. These are ALL great tips! The shoulders back and head up is, imo, the best place to start.

The thing is, it's not about behaviours, it;s about what is behind those behaviours. When you feel confident, the eye contact, the slow movement comes naturally, it is not something you plan or remember to do, you just feel that way. Feeling confident and calm is much more complex than looking someone in the eyes

[manufacturedfear]

The key, in my opinion, is not having fear. I don't mean having zero fear like the peaky blinders character, but however trying to overcome social fears, like the stress we feel when speaking to a random person on the street. We have to repeat a thousand times there's no danger. Once we have assumed we're not in danger, fear disappears

[PsychologyRefresh]

These are some incredibly effective ways to instantly command respect from people:
- Be vocal about your flaws
- Compliment people around you
- Hold your ground
- Keep your word
- Improve your body language

As an introvert person who lacks lot of confidence and always feel in a rush againt time available, I have great respect for those kind of personalities and that is also what I would like to build more as a person. That is very insightful, thanks.

[swoondrones]

He knows he is not in danger because it is a show.

[alexr]

As an introverted person, I’ve learned that the very first point he made about having slow movements is true. Before, I used to rush to do things, making it clear that I was always in a hurry. I started to be meticulous about everything, and people who I later befriended said I seemed confident. It works lol

[aingle]

Dude absolutely played his character to perfection. Exactly like someone who’s been through a lot

[T-StoryChannel]

This video is exactly what I needed to start my day on a positive note. It's a reminder that success comes to those who work hard and never give up. Thank you for this motivation!

Your insights provide a roadmap for introverts and those who prefer a quieter demeanor to navigate social situations with grace and authenticity. I appreciate the wisdom you've shared and believe it will empower many to embrace their unique strengths. Well done

Thomas shelby was a world war 1 veteran in the series. He was a tunneler, a job which requires you to operate in the worst possible conditions. He was a gypsy who lived his childhood in poverty. And all of this hardships coupled with horrors of the war made tommy who he was. Merely imitating his reactions to certain situations won't make you a tough guy. You have live your life out of your comfort zone to transform your persona into that of someone like thomas shelby.
