“Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate, so we can buy sh*t we don’t need. We are the middle children of history, raised by television to believe that someday we’ll be millionaires and movie stars and rock stars, but we won’t.”

Did you ever watch the movie Fight Club with Brad Pitt and Edward Norton? If so you may recognize the line, if not, don’t worry, it is not a prerequisite for this episode. For some people the idea that there is wisdom to be had in the movie may seem like a stretch. It was a really interesting movie and men tend to be drawn to it. If you listen to the show, you will know I am a movie nerd and I am always looking to glean what I can from a movie.

Let me be fully transparent, if you have not seen Fight Club and you want to, Spoilers ahead, you may want to come back after you see it. I will not dig deep into the movie, so you don’t need to have seen it, but I don’t want to ruin any plot points because that always pisses me off as an avid movie guy.

Today we are going to dive into this cult classic and pull out 7 proven truths for men who want proven results in their lives. Are you ready to Thrive as a man? This episode will help you!
