As men, testosterone is essential to our health, our energy, our optimism, and even our ability to take risks. As we age, our testosterone production naturally drops, leading to a decrease in our vitality, our vibrancy, and dare I say it, our vigor. But some 60-year-olds have managed to remain stronger and more spry than most 30-year-olds. The reason is because what matters is not necessarily how much testosterone is produced, but how much is available to your body for use. Doesn’t it make sense then, that we need to find ways to naturally jack up our testosterone levels? Of course it does. Hulk Smash!

How to Not Be Self-Conscious

various emotional expressions

Of course some degree of self-awareness is natural, but if you are stuck inside your head more often than you would like, unable to express yourself authentically and unabashedly to others, then here are a few ideas you may find useful.

As regular readers of my blog might know, I have started to go out, a lot. Initially I only went out with friends, but eventually I started to go out by myself sometimes and just make friends on the fly. Why do I do it? For one thing, it’s fun. Really fun. Maybe not always, but one thing I’ve realized about myself is that I am a natural introvert and if I don’t go to the gym and get out of the house regularly, I get stuck in my head. If you are also an introvert, you know that being stuck in your head is not fun. It is anti-fun. It sucks.

Be a Good Friend

When your perceived situation is much better than your friend’s, it is easy to be generous. You can give him abundant support because doing so does not threaten your sense of security. You may even willingly lower yourself to lift your friend from below.
