It Ain’t Wrong to be Strong Podcast

It's never easy letting shit go, but there comes a time where we have to do it to save our mental health and well-being.

It's hard.

You need courage, drive and determination and the desire to be a better man so that you can start living your best life otherwise you are wasting life on things that you cannot change, so you may as well own it.

Use your past to help propel yourself further along your path, wearing your battle scars with pride because they are proof you showed up.

Rise my brothers.

You don't need to die to leave a legacy. You leave a legacy by making a positive impact on the people around you, your community, your country, your nation or even humanity itself.

You leave a legacy by being of service, leading by example and helping other people win, achieve and succeed in life and if you make people feel good, they're going to talk about you in a positive way.

If you can change the way people think or behave, if you can build people up and even changing their direction in life, you're leaving a legacy my friends.

Personal growth is extremely difficult in the beginning and one of the reasons it is so difficult is because we have to man up to the fact we have been programmed and conditioned by people who didn't know what they were doing. In some cases we have even been lied to and deceived by people who are meant to love and protect us from this kind of thing.

That's not entirely their fault, they were programmed and conditioned in the same way. It's a never ending cycle and the system loves it. The problem is, are you strong enough to break generational curses and live your best life?

If you are, the next thing you have to understand is, you need to forgive yourself for who you used to be and things you did with the paradigm you had at the time. We all do stupid things and sometimes we hurt other people in the process. Sometimes we hurt ourselves more but the worst thing you can do is live with regret and never forgive yourself. You need to learn to forgive yourself and give yourself permission to shine in spite of all the naysayers and critics who keep trying to remind you of the mistakes you made.

I hope you find this of value my brothers.

Too many men spend way too much time beating themselves up over things they cannot change, spending too much time living in the past, living with regret. 

We need to see things as they are not as we wished they were so we can continue to live up to our true and fullest potential, we can't let the past hold us back from being the best version of ourselves we can possibly be and in turn, that will inspire others to do the same.

We live in a world lacking in strong, male role models for young men, especially young boys, to follow. This needs to change.

Society is doing it's best to water down masculinity calling it toxic but the truth is, masculinity isn't toxic. The absence of masculinity is what makes men toxic. They haven't built their own masculine frame or their own code of living and therefore, there is nothing for them to be guided by. They lack integrity and that's the problem.

What is a masculine frame and how can you start building and improving your own? You'll have to listen to find out.

Enjoy.

Next level masculinity is being a warrior in modern day society.

- What is it you are guided by?

- Could you defend your family or community if need be?

- Do you take care of your health and fitness?

- Do you read and write in journals or blogs?

- How is your spelling and grammar?

- Are you leading by example?

- Are you an effective communicator?

These are just some of my principles of warriorship in modern day society.

What are yours?

Society is raising our boys into soft feminine men with no frame instead of encouraging our boys to be strong and embracing masculinity.

It needs to stop because if it keeps going, we will live in a world where men are afraid to lead and make a stand against an injustice, men who are afraid to speak up and speak out and too scared to do what warriors do.

Watering down masculinity and feminizing boys is a dangerous path to travel.

There are far too many men out there who want things yesterday, too lazy to put in the time and effort to build a solid foundation and learn through trial and error.

You only learn by doing not by avoiding the work you should be doing, spending too much time looking for short cuts because short cuts are for amateurs.

There is a big difference between knowledge and wisdom and you only become wise and experienced by walking your walk, mastering your craft and being the best example of what ever it is you're doing.

Learn through trial and error, it's the best education.

Simping. A weak man with no masculine frame who does way too much for someone they're attracted to, even going against their own values, principles and standards.

Agreeing with everything a woman you're attracted to says in the hope she finds you ( sexually ) attractive is what wimps do.

Women are hard wired to be ( sexually ) attracted to masculine men who have the courage, drive and determination to build their own frame and stand by it. You will get more attention from high value, strong, feminine women if you have the backbone to disagree and not be manipulated by a woman's beauty, standing by your own values, principles and standards even when facing pressure form outside forces who want to do what everyone else is doing.

Women will always put you through a shit test. That's not a bad thing, it's just what a lot of women do subconsciously. They want to see if you're worthy of their love and affection, their body, their feminine energy. 

If you're not the kind of man to pass a shit test, having your masculine frame assessed and put on trial, then all you'll ever get are low grade women who want to use you for your money, car, status or what ever else they can drain you of.

You can't handle anything better.

Rise up my brothers, build and stand by your own masculine frame and leave simping for the ones who like to scrape the bottom of the barrel.
