The quote that always gets me through Change (Lesson 4) comes from a legendary Admiral: “If change is inevitable, predictable, beneficial, doesn't logic DEMAND that you be a part of it?”

Here’s one I’d like to add: don’t let other people define you. I’ve been learning this one the hard way because of a bad boss who has been consistently gaslighting me and causing me to question my own competence and self-worth. Once I realized that she doesn’t actually have that power over me, it was an epiphany. This ties into what James said about standing up for yourself when people try to Bring you down

"The trick to life is to not have expectations. Just to know what your duty is and to do it. You will become relentless. And nobody can defeat you." - RFK Jr

I like your new haircut and the fact you're now always fresh shaved, looks so much better.

[MovingStill-lo]

I admire your mission. The thumb nail wasn't a low blow but bait for the hungry.

Compliments to the chef.

[kevinjiang]

liked how you included both Western and Eastern philosophers. Impressive!

Overall excellent advice! I especially appreciate you calling out the self-pity thing, because I see many people – regardless of gender – falling into that, and it drives me crazy. At some point, the framing did come off like thinking only of what you can get out of relationships or circumstances, and I would Not frame it that way, myself. A gentleman genuinely cares about the people in his life and he acts with kindness and sincerity, not with ulterior motives. That doesn’t mean he compromises his own values or happiness for others, but we don’t want to veer into sociopathy, either

[faizan_farooqui]

Such meaningful lessons right there! Thank you, sir.

[MuhammadMoeenSabir-ph]

Thank you for the advice James I'll remember this since I want to be mentally strong

[Martin_Romanowski]

[jeanyvestrillat]

Very interesting and useful, thank you very much.

[Rishi_s-.]

I deeply appreciate your references from classic Hollywood movies and Sean Connery-era Bond movies on high-class gentlemen's behaviour ❤❤

[JeffToorish]

I am already a gentleman, but this is such a wonderful thing. I urge everyone to join this group.

[aminsany]

Love your account 😍 finally I find something real and not just instagram life 👍🏻

[ubiquitousdiabolus]

Self pity is merely an excuse to avoid doing the work to improve your situation in life. Even high status men can fall into this.

Regarding change: If you think you hate change, you'll hate irrelevance even more.

[JohnDoe-crog]

Spectacular. Control your own kingdom, gentlemen. Let others tend to their own.

[scottg]

Hello James, great content. I wish this could be taught in high school because I'm sure it'd help young adults to have a more successful life while being respected and appreciated.

[kevin-jgnq]

I believe “bough” rhymes with “now.” Just saying!

[aidenswift]

I love point five. We all want to be something. This reminds me of Frank Sinatra’s song “My Way”, which I try to make my guiding philosophy in life. Do it your way and be yourself.
