Eye Contact Is Power

In a world that’s mastered the art of looking away — at phones, at distractions, at anything but each other — eye contact is a lost weapon. 

And a powerful one. 

Because when a man holds his gaze steady, he says something before he ever opens his mouth. He says he’s present. He says he’s confident. He says he’s not running from anything. 

Eye contact isn’t about intimidation — it’s about intention. It’s about showing the person in front of you that you’re listening. That you’re not hiding. That you know who you are and what you stand for.  

To many men avoid it. They look down. They look around. They look past. But not the kind of man who leads. He looks you in the eye — not as a threat, but as a statement: I'm focused, here, lessoning.  

In business, it builds trust. In relationships, it builds connection. In conflict, it keeps the upper hand. Because when you meet someone’s eyes, you read more than words. You read truth. You read doubt. You read strength. You can dress sharp like a man, but if your eyes shift like a boy’s, the illusion falls apart. 

So practice it. 
Get comfortable in discomfort. 
Don’t dart. Don’t flinch. 

Look them in the eye. 
And hold your ground. 

Because in a world full of distractions, a steady gaze still speaks the loudest.
