Do Not Misrepresent Your Failures, Moving on From Hardship, and Identifying Truth and Lies

Most men have never been in a fight in their life (or, at most, a handful). So, what does it take to enter the Octogon and make a 16-year career (and counting) of administering and receiving the brunt end of physical violence. It’s something my guest today, UFC legend, Jim Miller, has done. And, he’s brought us so many incredible moments in the world of professional MMA.  Today, Jim and I talk about what it takes to fight for a living and why he believes he was built to fight. We cover some of the highs and lows of his career including his debilitating battle with Lyme disease and his recovery, how he shapes his training atmosphere for maximum results, how to win and lose with class and grace, ensuring he never puts himself into the victim role, and his immense respect for men who step into the cage with him.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS (00:00)Episode Intro (04:18)Fighter Nicknames and Future Fights (11:42)The Path to Success in MMA (24:46)Navigating Public Opinion and Personal Standards (30:46)Parenting and Fighting (42:02)Lyme Disease and Its Impact (56:01)The Lifestyle of Hunting and Fighting   Order of Man Merchandise.

Ownership over Victimhood, Handling Aggression, and Letting Go

“Tough” is an adjective we often associate with our perception of manliness. But in the relative ease of modernity, men are becoming increasingly soft and pathetic. Being tough is no longer amatter of survival but a matter of choice. And, why wouldn’t you choose to be tough? It’s rhetorical but why are so many men weak? My guest today, founder of MTNTOUGH, Dustin Diefenderfer is a man who knows what it means to be tough. He’s also training thousands of men to do the same though physical fitness that matters in the mountains and in everyday life. Today, we talk about the importance of brotherhood, the reason every man needs a purpose, passion, and plan, taking “tests” to quantify your progress, what he calls, “the 10-year rule,” the “Spartan Effect,” and so much more.    SHOW HIGHLIGHTS   What does it mean to be tough?
