We all have a vision or a fantasy of the man we strive to be compared with the man that we are. I try to become that man everyday. Whether it’s my posture, or my ability to put my phone away for any extended period of time and just be alive, the quest to become that man is a life long journey. Many of us picture our future selves as very successful, standing at the head of a boardroom table conducting business and having everyone hanging on each of our words. The journey to become that man is a constant challenge, but you can jumpstart that adventure by acting like that man right now.

If the man you want to become commands attention and respect at the same time, start with dressing the part. A well-tailored suit, a precise shave and a confident demeanor are all must haves, but you can add to that. While you don’t need to have a Rolex, consider it an investment in your future. Not only do its materials appreciate in value, but you will too. Maybe you even have your father’s Rolex, but it has stopped ticking. If that is the case, do yourself a favor and call rolex repair or even a rolex customer service agent and fix this problem.

Now that you have your appearance looking the part, expand your comfort zone. Choose two hobbies you’ve always had a peripheral interest in and enroll in an introductory class in them both. You might be saying you have no time, but I can assure you if you find the time to watch a couple of hours of television a week, you’ll definitely have the time to take a few hours of class. Once you get into the routine of it, it will be easy, and don’t forget that the man you want to become has different routines than you do right now anyway. Pick up photography or a language. Who knows, in a few years you might step off a plane in France with your new camera and everyone will wonder who you are. You will have your perfect French accent and a portfolio of beautiful portraits and landscapes and you’ll be a magnet of intrigue.

Take care of yourself and be healthy. This doesn’t mean that you have to change your diet, you just need to be conscious about it and try to eat in moderation. The man you want to become likely attracts the right kind of people. If people see someone who is thoughtfully put together, you will attract that kind of person. You will attract smart, educated and healthy people just like you. As is the case with your financial investments and how they work for you, find a way to make your personal and habitual investments work for you too. Diversify your stock in yourself and watch your value soar!
