Last week I ran a Young Men's Forum in Brisbane with Jayden Nikorima and I wanted to share some lessons learned in that process. 

I am excited about this program and the opportunity to roll this out nationally.

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”

 He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.”

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”

The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

If you find you struggle with something you have to call your commitment into question because anything less than 99% is a bitch but 100% is a breeze. 

Get committed and things will change.

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you're a good person is a little like expecting a lion not to eat you because you're a vegetarian. 

Control the controllable.
