Multifaceted Masculinity

We have been taught to fear what we don't understand and that truth can easily be found when you start talking about psychedelics. It's much harder to pause your default reaction to a topic, stop and listen to someone who may offer a different point of view, and possibly expand your understanding of this amazing life we get to live. 

Offense is an easy way to find where religion has gotten in the way of your connection to God. Keep that in mind for today's episode and do your best to listen before jumping to conclusions. 

Today's Guest:

A former Marine who served in combat operations in Fallujah, Iraq during 2004; Seth now operates in the civilian sector as a serial entrepreneur in the digital marketing space. As a Christian with a drive to become better in all areas of his life and a passion for truth - while reconciling the inconsistencies between religion, science, history, and philosophy - Seth happened upon Psychedelics as a key that began to unlock the connectedness of the aforementioned fields of interest. At the same time, it provided depth in healing, spiritual awakening, expanded consciousness, and more importantly - a deeper love for self and others.

Dreams should be an intricate part of our daily lives. They speak to us, guide us, and lead us into the life we are meant to have. In part two of our series on dreams we dive into how exactly do you activate dreams if you feel you don't' have them and so much more. 

Things we cover:

No, we're not talking about how to grow a garden today. We're talking about the principles of pruning and how applying them to your life can significantly help alter your ability to anchor in your masculinity.

Understanding Dreams - Our first series!

It's proven that sleep (or lack thereof) can drastically affect almost every area of your life. Much like masculinity, the time you sleep is "multifaceted". Dreams are only one aspect, but they can be used to guide you through life, unlock parts of your true identity, and draw you closer to God.

We spend roughly 1/3 of our life sleeping, so I thought it was only appropriate we stick with the rule of 3's and break down dreams in a three-part series.

Over the next three episodes we are going to be covering:

• The need to identify the source of where your dream may have come from.

As men, we've all felt like a fraud at some point but did you know it could actually be a positive thing? I'm not talking about hiding behind false humility or using it as a way to emotionally abuse yourself into "success".

I'm referring to using the feeling of being a fraud as an indicator that you're moving through the stages of competency. Once you learn how to identify it within the stages you begin to see how to use it as an encouragement to keep moving forward rather than a catalyst for a self-doubting spiral.

Unconscious incompetence

The individual does not understand or know how to do something and does not necessarily recognize the deficit. They may deny the usefulness of the skill. The individual must recognize their own incompetence, and the value of the new skill, before moving on to the next stage. The length of time an individual spends in this stage depends on the strength of the stimulus to learn.[5]

Conscious incompetence

Though the individual does not understand or know how to do something, they recognize the deficit, as well as the value of a new skill in addressing the deficit. The making of mistakes can be integral to the learning process at this stage.

Conscious competence

The individual understands or knows how to do something. However, demonstrating the skill or knowledge requires concentration. It may be broken down into steps, and there is heavy conscious involvement in executing the new skill.[5]

Unconscious competence

The individual has had so much practice with a skill that it has become "second nature" and can be performed easily. As a result, the skill can be performed while executing another task. The individual may be able to teach it to others, depending upon how and when it was learned.

Excellence in and of itself is a good thing, but it can do harm when you subconsciously misapply it to your life. You have to ask yourself a few important questions when it comes to excellence to prevent it from becoming the very thing holding you back from achieving the very thing you're pursuing.

Show Notes:

Ways we use excellence in unhealthy ways:

• Cover up a subconscious expectation of performing for love.

Most people waste so much emotional energy trying to "fix" relationships. Putting that focus on the right thing will fundamentally shift the relationship you have with yourself as well as the one you're unhappy with, but it requires you to choose to change your focus.
