Hey friends welcome to Skillopedia. The place to learn skills for the real world. This session
today is for our lovely men. The men we respect and love. This session will help you to be
a true gentleman. So you’re really trying hard to be a gentleman, how do you do it?
Well, it’s not really a personality trait; it’s more of a life style. You can’t really
turn on and off like a switch to be a great gentleman. Its something that you need to
learn from within, so today I’m gonna help you with some tips to be a true gentleman.
The first tip that I have for all my guy friends out there is that you need to put in efforts
in order to appear well. Yes appearance matters the most, so when I talk about appearance.
Well, certain things that you need to work on, firstly you need to keep yourself clean
and well groomed. For that you need to shower every day. In other words, you should not
smell bad. Women do not like to be around men, who smell bad, so make sure that you
clean yourself well, shower every day, probably two times a day. You will also feel fresh
and the people around you would also feel nice. And keep yourself well groomed. Now
when I talk about grooming yourself, the things that come under that is you need to keep your
finger nails nice. Which means you need not go for your manicures, like the women do.
But you need to trim your finger nails. There are some men that I usually come across, who
probably cut their finger nails, however there’s all dirt settled under their finger nails.
So please trim your nails at least once a week and clean your under nails well. Please
do that. Another thing if you like to maintain a good stubble or a beard, make sure you maintain
it well. Trim it at least once a week and it should look neat and tidy or else if you
prefer the clean shaven look, that’s great. Go for a clean shaven look or a good beard
a well maintained stubble or a well maintained beard. Another thing that you need to work
on is protruding hair from your nose and from your ears. Yes there are men, who have these
protruding nose hair or ear hair, so please make sure to trim that as well. It looks extremely
ugly, so in case if you have that issue make sure you trim it. So these are the certain
things that you need to follow, when it comes to appearance.
The second tip is to show your manners. A true gentleman is respectful to everyone in
his orbit. So what do you need to do? Well, show off your manners, hold the door open
for your woman or carry groceries for elderly people. So the certain things that you need
to keep in mind are like I said, hold the door open for women. For example, you walk
into a store, don’t just push the door, walk in and then leave the door. Oooops the
lady behind you is gonna bump herself into the door and that’s mean. So if you wanna
be a nice true gentleman, well open the door and let the lady go first. The modern manners
dictate that a gentleman a true gentleman is that person, who lets the woman go first,
for example, you are entering into a elevator. It’s super crowded and you are probably
getting late, don’t just push yourself into the crowd and go first, what you need to do
is just wait for couple of seconds, let all the women enter first and then go ahead. That’s
gonna be really appreciated. Also when you go to a restaurant probably you are dining
with your girlfriend and you want to be a nice guy, you want to be a nice gentleman.
So how do you show your manners out there? Well, you pull; back the chair for the woman,
let her sit push the chair and then go ahead and take a seat. So these are probably these
things just sound very silly to you, but trust me it just shows that how courteous you are
in a very subtle way. So even these small things really matter, even when you are driving
or even if your friend is driving, like your girlfriend or your partner who’s driving
open the car door for her, let her settle down in the car and then you go ahead and
take a seat. So follow these tips and trust me, you will be liked and appreciated by everyone.
The next tip that I have for you is, be on time. If you’re not early, it means that
you are late. Yes you cannot have someone waiting for you. Be it a woman or be it any
other person that you have given time. Well, usually what happens is, we tend to get late,
we are not well prepared for certain things like traffic or these little disasters and
then you keep giving excuses. That’s not fair, if you really want to be a true gentleman,
you need to be on time. Prepare yourself for these traffic jams, because usually when you
step out of your house, we all come across these little disasters. Am I right? So prepare
yourself with that, make sure that your car has enough fuel or enough gas and make sure
that you wait for the other person rather than the other person waiting for you. Especially
if she is a woman. So the next time you give time to someone, make sure to be on time.
The last tip that I have for all the lovely men out there, is compliment and have polite
conversations. Yes complementing women is so important. The first words out of your
mouth should be, the moment you look at a woman is, Oh you look beautiful tonight. Especially
if it’s your first date. Even if the woman is not looking really pretty tonight, doesn’t
matter. You can’t really say that you look ugly. Use subtle words that, hey you look
nice or you look beautiful and if she’s exceptionally looking absolutely amazing then
you can use words like, hey you look stunning tonight, absolutely gorgeous, so compliment.
Now even if you are already in a relationship, you can’t take your woman for granted. You
need to compliment her as well, maybe not daily but at least once in a while, that would
really make her feel nice about herself. So complimenting women is very important. Another
thing that you need to keep in mind is have polite conversations. Just because you are
a man, you can’t really show off your skills. You can’t be rude or you can’t really
talk in a very loud manner, screaming on top of your lungs. You cannot do that, if you
wanna be a true gentleman, you need to have polite conversations. Use positive phrases
like, how may I help you today? I’ll take care of that, don’t worry or I’m here
for you, no worries. These are the positive phrases that you can always use for the people
around you, so be it elderly people, be it women, be it your friends. Try to use these
words, this really helps. Don’t speak loudly, have nice, polite, slow conversations. So
these are the certain things that would genuinely help you to come out as a very positive and
a great person.
So this brings me to the end of this session today. Hope these tips are really helpful
to you to be a thorough gentleman. Follow these tips and trust me, you will be appreciated
by everyone. Be mature; of course be very very courteous and self aware about yourself.
Follow these tips and things will be sorted for you. And I’ll be back with a new session
