Dive into the life behind the scenes of The Men Collective in this special episode. It may not be what you're used to, but you don't want to miss it!

There are two types of dreams you will build in your lifetime: yours and someone else’s. When you punch the clock and exchange time for money, you are helping to build someone else’s dream. This may not be the case in every situation, but I’m confident that it is for most. What if it were possible to escape the current model of living and live the life you actually want?

Listen to this episode to explore the possibilities available to you, and the first steps in making the switch.

There is a lot of media coverage about toxic masculinity right now, like the APA Guidelines being released, as well as the Gillette commercial asking if this is the best a man can get/be, taking on toxic masculinity.

The question, though, is toxic masculinity even a real thing?

The American Psychological Association has released new guidelines for practice called the “APA GUIDELINES for the Psychological Practice with Boys and Men”. Naturally, it has people in an uproar. It’s a fresh and exciting piece of credible literature, but it’s been taken and used however seen fit. The media is loving it.

What are the other problems this new publication can cause?

Is there anything good that can come of this?

Men are suffering, so much so that these guidelines had to be created. Why is this, apart from the ways laid out by the APA?

Holidays are stressful for parents, and I think fathers tend to feel the pressure pretty intensely. I know I do, anyway. I feel that burning desire to blow this Christmas out of the water with the amount of presents I want to buy for my family. Even as I write this, I want to.

It’s a farce. It’s a marketing scam that preys on our natural desire to provide and make our families happy. But think about it. Where does the money come from? You either work overtime to get more money, or you go into debt, to buy these gifts. If you go into debt, you have to work more to pay it off, or you let it sit and it slowly rots your spirit.

Listen for some solutions to change your perspective on Christmas, and check out the article on our site that may change your perspective on yourself.

If you are to succeed, you must be relentless in the pursuit of your goals. If you are stuck in a life you don't want, haunted by the dreams of the life you do, then listen to this podcast and liberate yourself from the lies you fall back on. The life you desire could be yours, if only you would be relentless in your pursuit.

Note: I'm pleased to announce that this is our 20th episode, and it features our new intro. I think you will enjoy it.

What do you do when people don't believe in your ability to make your goals a reality? What if it's your relatives?

In this episode, your host Matt Gannon has a message for you. If you're struggling with the reality of striving for success, then you need to listen to this podcast.

In the third instalment of "The Four Cornerstones" series, your host, Matt Gannon explains why Mastery is the third cornerstone.

Mastery pertains to the development of your virtue and mental strength. Basically, the mind behind the man.

Your habits, the daily things you do, are a huge part of the mastery cornerstone. The way you live your life is extremely important in deciding how good of a life you have.

Sounds obvious, but yet we tend to live like crap and expect a luxurious, successful life. It’s not going to happen unless we master our habits and thought processes. Our thoughts have incredible power.
