I was reading up on how to become a better person and I stumbled upon these. I figured these might help some of you so I figured I would post this.

These are my 19 rules to be cool:

1) Not caring what women or other people think about you.

2) Not seeking approval from others.
Being cool means you dont seek validation and you dont need other people to agree with you on stuff. It means you give yourself validation to be who youre going to be and do what youre going to do whether you have anyones approval or not.

3) Always being laid back, cool, composed, and relaxed not matter what.
The coolest guys I know keep their composure and are relaxed in the craziest situations. Its awesome. (Look at Matthew Mcconaughey. He's pretty cool)

4) Not being needy.
Set your life up so you dont ever need for anything. Nothing physical or emotional. If you take care of yourself, you wont need others or women to take care of you or baby you.

5) Not trying too hard to look or be cool.
Not using reckless behavior to look like a rebel or tough guy. It looks kinda lame when you really think about it. Youre either cool or youre not. If you have to try, then youre not doing it right and you probably have work to do on yourself.

6) Having your life together job, finances, hobbies, relationships.
Having yourself together mentally, physically, and emotionally is pretty damn cool. Learn everything you can about becoming a well-rounded man and improve in every area possible.

7) Being nice and friendly to those you know and dont know.
Treat everyone as an equal. Even those beneath you.

8) Being really funny.
If youre not funny, find some funny guys and hang around them. Youll be acting like a jackass and making people laugh and enjoy your company in no time.

9) Being a good listener, conversationalist, and making people feel important.
I like to call it, listen your way into her pants. Learn how to get over yourself, get over your own shit, quit thinking of what youre going to say next, and just be in the moment. Be present. LISTEN. Really seek to understand the other person and where theyre coming from. Forget about yourself for a few minutes, or hours. The return on investment is incredible because that person now really likes you and wants to be your friend and be in your life.

10) Not being a downer.
If youre a negative wussbag who brings others down with your snide remarks, complaining, and acting like a little girl, youre not going to look very cool and youre not going to get a lot of admirers. Always be positive. Always have something good to say. Train yourself to see opportunity instead of failure.

11) Have good hygiene of course.
Wash your stinky ass, armpits, etc. Wear cologne, brush your teeth, trim your nails, keep your hair decent, etc. Look like you give a damn about yourself. Always be presentable.

12) Having confidence but not arrogance.
You already know theres a fine line here. Arrogance comes in when you dont keep your mouth shut. Talk less, listen more, and carry yourself with confidence.

13) Being genuine, honest, and authentic.

14) Not thinking youre better or smarter than others.
Always be open to others ideas. Be open to the possibility that people you meet might know more than you or be smarter than you. Realize that your way usually isnt the only way. Be flexible. Truly smart men are intelligent enough to know not to tell others how smart they are. Instead, they prove their brain power through actions instead of words.

15) Helping others when they need help.
Dont be selfish. Most guys who think theyre too cool will watch someone else fall on their face or struggle with something.

16) Bringing out the best in others and lifting others up.
Youre not a cool guy if those around you are worse off for having met you. Make people feel good and do better just for knowing you. Maya Angelou said
People will forget what you did and said to them, but they wont forget how you made them feel.

17) Going after your goals.
Write down what you want to do with your life, who you want to be, and make that stuff happen! Before you know it, your life has passed you by and either youre happy because you acted fast enough, or you sat around twiddling your thumbs and youre bitter about who you became. Dont be a wish I had guy. Be a what if I dont guy.

18) Being yourself.
Dont try to be like others. Think for yourself. Just because your buddies got a piercing in their face doesnt mean you should do it too to look cool. Be who you are, not who others want you to be.

19) Having your own style/way of doing things.
Get away from those influencing you and spend some time by yourself and figure out who you are. Develop your own habits, style, and way of living. If youre copying others, you need to work on it. If others are copying you and following in your footsteps, youre probably on the right track.

20. Watch lots of anime alone and naked!

Hope you all enjoyed!
