    1. Drama Is Draining Your SoulThe first sign? Drama. If your relationship feels like a rollercoaster of chaos—big fights, silent treatments, explosive makeups—it's a problem. I've noticed this pattern especially with super attractive women. They're used to attention, used to getting their way, and when you don't play along, it can spark jealousy, arguments, or petty power plays. People joke that “prettier girls are crazier,” and honestly, there's some truth to it. Years of special treatment can wire someone to crave control or stir up trouble when things don't align.Set a boundary. Tell her, “If this keeps happening, I'm out.” She'll test you—trust me, she will. When she does, hold your ground. Walk away. Don't be the guy who caves when she calls crying, because that kills any respect she has left. Drama might feel thrilling, but it's a distraction you can't afford.2. Your Wallets Don't MatchNext up: money. Financial compatibility isn't just about goals—it's about where you're at right now and what you both expect. Guys, we've all done it: flexing a little too hard to impress her, dropping cash on dinners, gifts, or trips to seem like the big shot. I've made that mistake, pretending I had more than I did. But here's the fallout: you can't sustain it. She'll figure out you're overspending, and the cracks will show.Every woman's different. Some are independent, with careers or family support, and don't need you to bankroll them. Others expect a guy who can provide a certain lifestyle—and that's their right, just like you've got standards for how she looks or acts. The problem hits when your financial reality doesn't match her expectations. If she's looking for a provider and you're barely scraping by, it's a recipe for resentment. She won't look up to you if she's out-earning you or if you can't keep up with her vibe.Be real with yourself. If you can't afford her world, don't fake it. Focus on stacking your cash instead of chasing someone out of your league. Sit her down, talk it out—be honest about what you can (or can't) offer. If she needs more than you've got, cut ties. It's not about gold-digging; it's about compatibility. Misaligned wallets lead to misery.3. The Bedroom's BrokenLet's talk sex—because it matters. If you're not attracted to her, or she's not into you, that's a dealbreaker. I don't care what anyone says: a relationship without physical spark is a friendship with extra steps. Being with someone you don't want to sleep with—or who doesn't want you—is torture. I've tried to make it work, and it's soul-crushing.If you're not into her, don't drag it out to spare her feelings. Communicate it—gently, sure, but clearly. Figure out your type, what lights you up, and if she's not it, break it off fast. The longer you fake it, the worse it gets—you'll cheat, resent her, or both. If she's not attracted to you, that's trickier. Are you satisfying her? Is she into it? If not, step up your game (check my other videos for tips), but if you've tried and she's still checked out, it's over. Sex isn't everything, but it's damn close. When it's not working, walk away.4. Your Futures Don't FitThe final nail in the coffin? Mismatched futures. You can have killer chemistry, great sex, aligned finances—but if your long-term visions don't sync, it's doomed. She wants kids, you don't. You're tied to Minnesota, she's dreaming of Miami. I've been there: dated someone amazing, only to realize her path wasn't mine. It hit me hard, but I had to admit it—our futures didn't line up, and no amount of love could fix that.

    How I Learned Wealth Is a Mindset, Not a NumberI used to think being poor was about how much money you had—or didn't have. Growing up in Havana, Cuba, frugality was survival. When I moved to America at 21, that didn't change right away. At 25, I had more money than ever, but I was still hunting for $7 pants at Goodwill and a $10 backpack at Ross. I'd brag about it, too—like it was some badge of honor. Then I realized: I wasn't poor anymore, but I was still acting poor. Feeling poor. It wasn't my wallet holding me back—it was my mind.That shift started on a trip I'll never forget. I was hired to film a commercial for a luxury yacht company called Sea Dream. Picture this: a boat with just 84 passengers, where the staff knew your name, your favorite drink, your food preferences. It was personal, polished, and unlike anything I'd ever seen. I'd never been on that side of wealth before. To prepare, I bought new clothes—not my usual thrift store haul, but stuff that fit the vibe. That's when I started caring about suits, fashion, how I presented myself. It wasn't about money—it was about mindset.On that yacht, docked at St. Barts—one of the ritziest islands in the Caribbean—I saw a massive cruise ship pull up next to us. Thousands of people onboard, probably 5,000. I turned to the operations director, an older Norwegian guy who'd clearly made it big, and asked, “Why don't you build a bigger ship? Scale this up?” His response hit me like a ton of bricks: “Axel, in life, you can go for the masses or the elite. We choose the best of the best. We don't want to do what anyone can do.”That stuck with me. Quality over quantity. Excellence over average. It's not about how much you do or spend—it's about doing better. You don't need $800 for a Gucci t-shirt when a $300 well-fitted shirt looks twice as expensive. Wealth isn't the price tag—it's the choice.It's taken me almost a decade to fully shed that poor-kid-from-Cuba mindset. Last year, I made more money than ever before, but the transformation started long before the cash rolled in. I learned that living wealthy isn't about your income—it's about how you think, act, and carry yourself. A $500K earner and a $5M earner can have similar experiences if they're on the same wavelength. It's not how much you drop on dinner—it's where you go, how you dress, how you treat the staff, who you connect with while you're there.Here's the kicker: if you're young and starting out, like I was, the first step is recognizing abundance. When you're broke, it's hard to see it—but there's so much money out there, especially in a place like America. If you keep thinking everyone's as strapped as you, you'll only create for broke people. You'll sell your time, your services, your ideas at your own income level—and that's a trap. Aim higher. Build something for people with 10x your money.I see this in my work now. Say I'm pitching a video project to a luxury brand. If I price it based on what I'd pay, I'm dead in the water—because to me, it's not “worth” much. But if that video boosts their revenue by 10%, that could mean $5 million to them. They're not buying the video—they're buying the outcome. Rich people think differently, and you've got to meet them there.Being poor is a mindset, plain and simple. It's not about your bank balance. If you stay in that headspace, you won't push yourself—to dress sharp, to eat well, to hit the gym, to care for your skin or hair. But flip that switch, and everything changes. How you live, how much you earn—it's all tied to how you see yourself.You don't need millions to start living rich. Do less, but do it better. Focus on quality, not the cheapest option. That shift has 10x'd my income and transformed my life from the moment I wake up to the moment I crash at night. It can do the same for you. Wealth starts in your head—get that right, and the money will follow.Let me know if you'd like any tweaks to the thread or blog post—length, tone, or anything else!

Verbal fluency is your ability to move from thoughts to words quickly and to access information from your memory. You're able to express accurately what you want to say and when you want to say it. There are times when you're more verbally fluent than other times. Verbal fluency is, basically, the ease with which a person can produce words. There are several tests of this ability, but most of them involve some sort of category like fruits, words beginning with the letter Q or animals. How to Sound Smart Use simple terminology. Stop thinking the use of big words will make you appear smart. ... Don't over-articulate. Connect the words within phrases together. Relax & Breathe. Being relaxed always improves your performance; exhale your voice right out of your lungs. ... Use a varied intonation pattern.

About Noam Kroll: https://noamkroll.com/about-noam I'm an LA based filmmaker here to share my thoughts, experience, and perspective on all things film with you. I have worked in the film and television industry in many different capacities over the years, but primarily as a director, cinematographer and colorist. I got my start by writing and directing my own short film content which led me to work on music videos, advertising campaigns, and eventually feature film work. My approach to filmmaking has always been quite hands on given my background in cinematography and post-production, which has led me to DP and edit many of my own projects. While I continually develop my own passion projects, I also spend much of my time assisting other filmmakers in the creation of their films. Through my production company, Creative Rebellion, I have been fortunate to have taken part in the completion of innumerable feature films, shorts, broadcast content, and commercials. At the moment my time is split between my next feature film, my company, and of course this blog! What excites me most about filmmaking today is that we as filmmakers have the ability to create exceptionally high quality content without the need for huge budgets – simply by harnessing the power of the tools we have at hand, and gaining the knowledge we need to make the most of them. Great films at their core are simply great stories, no matter how large or small their budgets are. With today's tools and resources at our fingertips, the potential for telling moving stories is limitless.

Work on developing a strong sense of self-worth by setting goals, practicing self-care, and surrounding yourself with positive influences. Practice social skills: Being comfortable in social situations is key to building confidence around women. Practice your social skills by attending events and striking up conversations with strangers. Focus on body language: Nonverbal communication is just as important as verbal communication when it comes to confidence. Make sure to maintain good posture, make eye contact, and smile often. Be authentic: Trying to be someone you're not will only make you feel more insecure. Embrace your unique qualities and express them confidently. Take action: Finally, the best way to build confidence is to take action. Don't be afraid to approach women you find attractive, ask them out on dates, and take risks in your love life. Remember that confidence is a skill that can be developed over time with practice and patience.

The advancement of social media and dating apps have forever shifted the way men need to represent themselves as high value. Additionally, women have way more options to choose from which makes it harder for the average man to even find compatible women to date, let alone even marry! The way to beat the system is to understand how to beat the system. If you do not have a high value social media presence along with supreme confidence to speak to women, you are going to fail in dating and relationships. It is easy to feel overwhelmed and anxious that you will never find true love. Going forward, the best thing one can do is to learn why they are failing in love and begin learning how to fall in love with the right woman. Women need men just like men need women. At The Grand Male, we will help you identify whichever problems are holding you back and create solutions for you to succeed. Imagine what your life would look like if you had strong confidence and a sexy and attractive woman holding your hand. This is what being a Grand Male is all about: creating a powerful connection with a woman who desires you as you desire her. Every man has the potential to become an alpha male and attract the love they deserve. My goal is to provide the tools and guidance needed to make that happen. Join us and discover the alpha within. Other videos about Red Pill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g83En4r4z08 What Is Red pill and blue pill movement? The red pill and blue pill represent a choice between the willingness to learn a potentially unsettling or life-changing truth by taking the red pill or remaining in the contented experience of ordinary reality with the blue pill. The terms originate from the 1999 film The Matrix. The concept of red and blue pills has since been widely used as a political metaphor, especially among libertarians and conservatives in the United States, where "taking the red pill" or being "red-pilled" means becoming aware of the political biases inherent in society, including in the mainstream media, and becoming an independent thinker; while "taking the blue pill" or being "blue-pilled" means unquestioningly accepting these supposed biases. STOP Being Manipulated | Emotional Tactics for Healthy Relationships || Grand Cam & Axel Axe The concept is also used among leftists to refer to members of the alt-right and others who subscribe to extremist right wing beliefs or conspiracy theories. The metaphor has been popularized by neo-reactionary blogger Curtis Yarvin. He first used it in a 2007 blog post (writing under the pseudonym Mencius Moldbug) titled "The Case Against Democracy: Ten Red Pills", in which he argues that trying to convince a Westerner that democracy is bad is like trying to convince "a Catholic in 16th-century Spain... to stop believing in Catholicism", but then offers ten "red pill" arguments (along with their "blue pill" counterparts) to make the case against democracy.

He's best known for the genuine expressions he captures for his executive business portraits and actor's headshots. CHAPTERS 0:00 - Intro 0:29 – Peter as a Facial Conveying Strategist 07:11 - The Most Important Thing He Learned As A Photographer 10:16 – How Peter Handles Working with High-Profile Individuals 13:21 – Your Relationship with the Subject Influences the Entire Shoot 16:00 - Why Artists Need to Find the Personality that Works Best for Them 18:41 – How Peter Developed his Directorial Skills 20:28 – Working with Celebrities and Successful Individuals 24:36 – What would Peter Do if Time and Money were Not an Issue? ABOUT PETER I'm excited to tell you my story, but the truth is that I just feel like a guy lucky enough to pick up a camera. It's been a wild ride and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities that I've been given along the way. It all started while I was training for the Olympic Games. I met then DKNY designer, Caggie Simonelli Bradford, who took me under her wing to help me generate sponsorship opportunities. She caught wind of the fact that Ralph Lauren was looking for real sailors for an upcoming Polo Sport ad campaign and the next thing I knew I was sailing in front of Bruce Weber's lens. Little did I know that day would forever change the trajectory of my life. After my Olympic dream came to an end, I moved to New York to try my hand at a modeling/acting/bartending career that seemed to become a pounding of the pavement experiment. It was at that time that Bruce encouraged me to pick up a camera. I started out by photographing portraits of my model friends and landed my first commercial job photographing sneakers for Reebok. I even had a little stint shooting for Levi's on “The Apprentice.” I loved the portrait work I was getting, however, decided to focus all my efforts on my goal of becoming the best headshot photographer I could be. My signature style of simple clean backgrounds, beautiful lighting, and captivating expressions became all the rage. I was recognized numerous times year after year by Backstage magazine as the best headshot photographer in New York City. I was in my own little world, running a bustling portrait studio when these two characters from Fstoppers, Lee and Patrick, walked in my door and turned my operation on its head. Their interview garnered a ton of attention from up and coming photographers, so with some reluctance at first I decided to begin sharing my “special sauce” if you will. This was one decision that instantly turned my life 90 degrees into another direction. My YouTube videos “It's All About the Jaw” and “It's All About the Squinch” went viral, leading to appearances on Good Morning America and Good Day NY. The New York Times featured my ideas in “6 Tips for Better Portraits” and “How to Pose for a Photograph.” Popular Photography went so far as to dub me “The Headshot King.” Like I said earlier, I'm truly grateful for everything that has come my way. The best part is that I absolutely love what I do and none of it seems like work to me. I believe that everything I've worked to accomplish stems from this one thing: That's it in a nutshell and it is my life's work. When you don't find me with a camera in my hand then you will be sure to see me crusin around on a Laser somewhere in the world or spending as much time as I possibly can with my beautiful wife and precious twin daughters.
