 Welcome to the Fallible Man Podcast, your home for all things Man, Husband and Father. We provide content to help men become the men they want to be. My name is Brent and I Am the Fallible Man!

Men should be dangerous in every way. I am not talking about being violent or physically aggressive towards anyone. Today we will discuss how men should be dangerous mentally, professionally and physically. Stick around to the end and we will talk about the most dangerous thing to men.

 

Intro thoughts: Men should be dangerous in every way. Danger has very little to do with violence and is often confused with the idea of violence. I would never advocate for men to be violent unless there is no other options to protect those you are responsible for and too. Those situation are far and few between and you may be able to go your whole life without that kind of moment, if you are lucky. The world is dangerous though in many ways and unless you are dangerous too you will get eaten alive. The idea of a warrior mindset has been done to death and is really in accurate. We had a “mantra” we recited as a group in training “The strong survive, the weak fall by the wayside” because the idea was to become unbreakable. We conditioned long and hard so that no matter what we endured it was still a bearable situation. Likewise I have a training philosophy that includes the same mind set. When training for an OCR (as my regular listeners know I do) I train far heavier and tougher than anything I will encounter on the course. This is to compensate for the exhaustion of a prolonged event designed to break you down. It trains you mentally and Physically

Men should be dangerous mentally

  • In episode 7 we talked about the benefit of doing hard things – It builds Fortitude
  • In episode 8 we talked about the value of that mental strength
  • Have you ever heard of drown proofing? – That is this fun thing.. –for the purpose of teaching you to think in crap situations. The military does this idea of training a lot, to teach you to be mentally tough no matter what
  • Becoming mentally tough and unbreakable makes you mentally dangerous, when you tame your mind to be this way then you are never at a loss in any situation

Men should be professionally dangerous

  • If you aren’t the shark then you are the food – Be a shark, no complaints, no whining
  • In your office or in your crew be “the Man” “the go getter” “the solutions guy” (pet peeve, everyone comes with problems, come with solutions)
  • Be the one who will speak and not cower if you see an issue. (this can be dangerous to you)

Men should be dangerous Physically

  • Let’s be honest with ourselves, most men still think they are everything they used to be so we don’t worry because we were scrappy “fill in the blank”
  • Ryan Michler over at the Order of Man likes to say “Protect, Provide, Preside” We cannot “protect” if we are out of shape and unhealthy and we can’t really preside as setting the right example is part of that.
  • Get on it, get healthy and active. Learn how to master your body so you can protect
