That seduction is not so you can use it in a in a bad way. Right?
But it comes from from inside. Think about think about the people
who get you know, in America we have the people's the sexiest man
alive, right? People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. Every person
they've ever put on the sexiest man sexiest woman alive. I'm like,
I don't think they're very sexy. Because it doesn't have anything
to do with their physical features. It has to do with
something that people see in them that they like, right.
So, if I was to ask you, on behalf of viewers, where does sexiness
come from? Where does that sexual is sexiness, sexual confidence.
You mentioned the word seduction. Where does it actually come from?
Something we can perform? Is it something we can kind of, you
know, is there like a step by step? Is it something internal? Is
it based on your experiences? Where does it come from? I think
it comes from so there's a difference between sexiness and
seduction. So to be a sexy person might come across as being a
person who exudes a level of sexual prowess, right? Oh, this is
a sexy person, they exude a level of sexual potential. It may be in
the way that they walk the way that they carry themselves.
seduction, however, is a person who pulls you in with a lure. You
may not want to develop any form of physicality with them. But
there's something captivating about this person. I think of
Yusuf Alayhi. Salam when I think of seduction, right. Oh, wow.
Yeah. Other women were just like he didn't he wasn't even doing
anything. He was chilling, right? But he just has this magnetism to
him. As a nice word. Yes. ISM isn't. That's seduction. It's not
so you can use it in a in a bad way. Right. But it comes from from
inside. Think about think about the people who get you know, in
America, we have the people's the sexiest man alive, right? People
magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. Every person that they've ever put
on the sexiest man sexiest woman alive. I'm like, I don't think
they're very sexy. Because it doesn't have anything to do with
their physical features. It has to do with something that people see
in them that they like, right? So for me, a person being sexy,
exudes a level of sexual potential, but the more nuanced
and the more sophisticated approach is, what level of
seductive confidence do they have? It's like, Have you ever been in a
room and someone has walked in, and it's like, all the air just
goes directly to that person. It's like, you have to just gasping and
catch your breath. You don't even they don't even have to say
anything. They don't even have to necessarily be a totally
physically conventionally attractive person. There's just
something about them that's rapturous, that seductive
confidence. That's where it comes from. So what it starts with
knowing who you are, being confident in who you are, and
accepting yourself, however, you come accepting your flaws, because
when you accept your flaws, no one can weaponize them against you.
And then you allow other people space to be fully themselves. And
so that is that's what you start to exude. And that is that level
of seductive confidence that you have that makes people say, Well,
how can I be like you? How can I get
it's so much more than the performative aspects of, of
appearance and sexiness. It's it has a much deeper route and I
truly think that anyone can access it but it does definitely takes a
lot of internal work to get there.
