My next gift to myself

If there is one thing you should know about me im a watch man, I believe every man should own and wear a watch it basically states that your in control of time.

Top 5: Drinks For Guys

Number 5

Bulleit Neat

Nothing says “brawny man” like a glass of bourbon. No ice, no frills just you and the drink. So, down it like man, slam your glass on the bar and order yourself another one.

Type of man it makes you: Get spied with a Bulleit Neat in your hand, and your image will scream, “Rugged Marlboro man.” 

Number 4

Billionaire’s Margarita

A manly twist on a “female” drink, a Billionaire’s Margarita is a delicious way to stay festive while still maintaining your macho reputation.

Type of man it makes you: What’s in a name? Absolutely everything. Order a Billionaire’s Margarita while decked out in your business wear and you’ll certainly look the part of the sophisticated and appealingly dangerous tycoon.

Number 3

A Hole in One

What makes a man a man? Why, his love of sport, of course. Order A Hole in One and you’ll be oozing with the manly athleticism that sets you apart from the rest of the bar crowd.

HoType of man it makes you: A Hole in One defines you as a country-club socialite, so why not play the part? Throw on your best polo shirt, and head to a swanky bar.

Number 2

Captain & Cola

Yes, you can still have a cola-inspired drink and show off your manliness -- as long as it’s mixed with something red-blooded, like rum.

Type of man it makes you: The Captain & Cola drinker is a man in charge; he’s sophisticated, he’s in control and all eyes are on him when he walks in the room. So, grab a Captain & Cola and try your dandiest to exude that persona.

Number 1

Dirty Martini

As demonstrated by James Bond, the Dry Martini is certainly a man’s drink. So, how can it can get any manlier? Make it a little “Dirty” and suddenly you have the words "vigorous" and "powerful" written all over you.

Type of man it makes you: If you dapple in the Dirty Martini, you’re definitely a man who appreciates the classics, but you aren’t afraid to try anything with a modern twist. This kind of diversity makes the Dirty Martini drinker an appealing, urban sophisticate.

The Anatomy of an Alpha Male

We miss the days when all it took to woo a woman was a winning smile and a couple of witty one-liners. Life was simpler back then, back before scientists started to measure all the secret ways women size men up. Practically every week, a new study comes out that reveals another hidden method females use to pick potential partners from a crowded pack of men. And most of the time, we have no idea we’re even being judged. Case in point: According to new research in the journal Nature Communications, women rate guys with high levels of testosterone and stronger immune responses as more attractive.
Bet you didn’t know she finds your antibodies sexy, right? And wouldn’t it be great to know if you have other features that stealthily turn her on? Good news: You have plenty of them. Below are a list of things to let you know which of your body parts, gestures, and accessories scientifically stand out most to her. Starting with a dynamite immune system [1], here’s what you need to polish up before you hit the town tonight.

2. Your Five O’Clock ShadowKiss clean-shaven goodbye. In a study at Northumbria University, women rated pictures of men with light stubble as the most attractive, and said a man sporting it was the ideal romantic partner. Though women scored full beards highest in masculinity and aggression, fuzzy faces bottomed out as the least attractive.

3. Your Smooth BaritoneGentlemen, get your Barry White on. There’s a reason the soul master was a total ladies’ man—because his legendary low croon made women swoon. And you can do the same: According to a 2011 study in Memory & Cognition, women have a stronger preference for hearing a deep-voiced man talk.

4. Your Favorite FragranceMen who use cologne are more confident than those who don’t, says a University of Liverpool study. But the same study also found that when women simply see a man apply a scent, they consider him more attractive. Easy as that: Use a scent you like, and your confidence carries you.

5. Your Barren PitsListen, we’re not telling you to go underarm commando, but a new study out of the Czech Republic found that when ladies sniffed odor samples from shaved armpits and armpits with hair grown for 6 to 10 weeks, they liked the smell of hairless dudes better. It’s your call, but a couple of snips might not hurt (as long as you’re careful).

6. Your Loaded GunsBREAKING NEWS:  Big muscles carry big benefits—especially when it comes to the ladies. Research out of UCLA confirms that yes, women are indeed attracted to muscular guys. (We were shocked, too!) A series of six studies found that fit men are catnip to women looking for fun, and they have twice as many partners as average Joes and weaklings. Just one more reason to hit the gym.

7. Your Red AttireInject some rouge into your wardrobe. According to a study in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, women are more attracted to dudes in red than any other color, finding them more attractive, powerful, and sexually desirable. Use a photo with a simple touch of red—a tie or a deep red button up under a blazer—to get her attention.

8. Your Ritzy RideProcuring a luxury sports car isn’t as easy as, say, buying a red shirt, but nevertheless: If you’re looking for a fling, zip around the block in a Boxster. In a 2011 study from the University of Texas at San Antonio, women were more likely to choose Porsche drivers for a date and less likely to choose them for marriage.

9. Your Firm Handshake
Strengthen your grip, stat. A good handshake isn’t a shortcut to her bed, but a bad one can doom you. Hands are loaded with tactile nerves, and people with weak, clammy handshakes were perceived as shy and neurotic in a University of Alabama study. So hold your drink in your left hand and give her a firm but not bone-crushing grasp. Pay attention to her grip as well: The same study showed that women who give firmer handshakes tend to be more adventurous.

10. Your Average PackageBelieve it or not, bigger doesn’t always mean better in the penis department. Women rate extremely long penises as less attractive than those of a more average length, according to a 2010 study in the Archives of Sexual Behavior. Unless you’re a member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers circa the early ’90s—Google it—this tip’s for the bedroom only.

Guy wisdom

10 Turing points to Celebrate in Life

1. The first time you see your father as a man, complete with flaws, unfulfilled dreams, and unchained lust. Your mission: Learn from him, but don't repeat after him.

2. The first time you stay out all night and see the sunrise. Freedom. Hope. Endless possibilities. Attack every dawn with that mix of surprise, awe, and optimism.

3. Your first paycheck. It gave you a one-two combination punch from the invisible hand of capitalism, the first being that yes, taxes suck. The second: This is not nearly enough dough. Both fueled your ambition to earn more zeros. And still should.

4. The first time you fight the Man and win. Who knew that Tom over in the passport office had the power to renew yours on the spot? Goliath, when properly motivated, will cradle David in his big paw.

5. Your first wedding as a groomsman. You looked your best, the free booze flowed, and you had that genuine pang of hope that someday you'd find the woman of your dreams—and that she might just be that hot bridesmaid dancing to "Baby Got Back."

6. The first time you dump a girl. It took balls to walk away from free nooky. Maybe you're stronger than you think.

7. The first time you're picked last. First thought: I suck. Second: I'll show them. That mojo can last a lifetime.

8. The first time you encounter mechanical failure in bed. Laugh it off, reboot, and spend the next hour pleasing her. She'll remember it as your best performance ever.

9. Your first medical scare. Next time you're in the drive-thru or at the gym, remember that panic.

10. The first time you talk your way out of a ticket. It teaches you that most cops are just trying to avoid pulling your ass out of yet another bloody wreck, and makes you accelerate more attentively next time. You just don't know what might be around that corner, do you?

A quote from President Obama

Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. it's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.”


-Barack Obama

One of my favorite actors: Shia Labeouf


Action-hero wonder boy Shia LaBeouf has put aside childish things the late night car wrecks and gotten serious about his career. You might even say a little obsessive. Hence, his intense turn as a stock-possessed trader in the Wall Street sequel. And what should a guy like that wear? Clean, trim suits like these that no one would ever mistake for Gordon Gekko's.

Here are tips for staying productive


1. Work backwards from goals to milestones to tasks. Writing “launch company website” at the top of your to-do list is a sure way to make sure you never get it done. Break down the work into smaller and smaller chunks until you have specific tasks that can be accomplished in a few hours or less: Sketch a wireframe, outline an introduction for the homepage video, etc. That’s how you set goals and actually succeed in crossing them off your list.

2. Stop multi-tasking. Switching from task to task quickly does not work. In fact, changing tasks more than 10 times in a day. When you’re stoned, your IQ drops by five points. When you multitask, it drops by an average of 10 points, 15 for men, five for women (yes, men are three times as bad at multitasking than women).

3. Be militant about eliminating distractions. Lock your door, put a sign up, turn off your phone, texts, email, and instant messaging. In fact, if you know you may sneak a peek at your email, set it to offline mode, or even turn off your Internet connection. Go to a quiet area and focus on completing one task.

4. Schedule your email. Pick two or three times during the day when you’re going to use your email. Checking your email constantly throughout the day creates a ton of noise and kills your productivity.

5. Use the phone. Email isn’t meant for conversations. Don’t reply more than twice to an email. Pick up the phone instead.

6. Work on your own agenda. Don’t let something else set your day. Most people go right to their emails and start freaking out. You will end up at inbox-zero, but accomplish nothing. After you wake up, drink water so you rehydrate, eat a good breakfast to replenish your glucose, then set prioritized goals for the rest of your day.

7. Work in 60 to 90 minute intervals. Your brain uses up more glucose than any other bodily activity. Typically you will have spent most of it after 60-90 minutes. (That’s why you feel so burned out after super long meetings.) So take a break: Get up, go for a walk, have a snack, do something completely different to recharge. And yes, that means you need an extra hour for breaks, not including lunch, so if you’re required to get eight hours of work done each day, plan to be there for 9.5-10 hours.

Why women compete for men.

Most women are highly competitive by nature, and it seems that men have an innate ability to bring out their most competitive streak–without even trying to.
|by Hustle Bunny
Although some women will gracefully bow out if they see that the guy they’ve had their eye on is already involved with another woman, others will see this as a challenge that they can’t help but take on.
So, why do women compete for men? Quite simply, they want what they cannot have. Some women fight for a man’s attention because they believe all the good guys are taken and that any man that is involved with a woman must have it going on. If a guy is single, women assume there must be a good reason. The longing for someone who is off-limits is what draws other women to compete for a man, and a lot of women find a taken man intriguing and something that they just cannot pass up. The simple fact that they can’t have a certain man is precisely what makes women want what’s off limits.
If a competitive woman of this nature truly believes that a certain guy is the one for them and they are meant to be together, she may very well stop at nothing to ensure that they end up together. The fact that he is involved with another woman means absolutely nothing to some women because, in their minds, he is with the wrong girl– he just doesn’t know it yet! She may try to seek out the other woman’s flaws and weaknesses and exploit them to her advantage by bringing them to the man’s attention, thinking that this will help her cause and make herself look good in the man’s eyes.
Unfortunately, another side of female competition is dealing with power-hungry women who would actually get joy and satisfaction from taking away another woman’s man. This type of power-hungry woman probably never displayed the least amount of interest in a man while he was single, but was all over him once she discovered that he had a girlfriend. In this situation, a guy may interpret the power-hungry woman’s intense flirting as a sign of genuine interest when in reality she may not even like him at all and is simply being used to satisfy her unhealthy need for power over another woman. A lot of women only date married men for this exact reason.
Remember, women want what other women have, and the more out of reach you are, the more appealing you are to them. So use this warped female reasoning to your advantage by surrounding yourself with as many quality women as possible when you go out, as this will make you virtually irresistible
