An Awareness Asking for Attention
Anybody here have awareness that repeat and resurface? As if saying "hello, I'm over here". Sometimes when I have repetitive realizations, it's easy for me to get frustrated. I notice myself lose momentum due to discouragement and the feeling/sense of "dangit....again". One thing that keeps coming up for me are administrative tasks & to-do's that don't seem to be getting completed or keep getting pushed aside. Let me know if this is something you can relate to. And what it is for you that keeps resurfacing for you.

So if I'm understanding, there are multiple levels of awareness here at play. An awareness that things that should be done get de-prioritized and they shouldn't have. An awareness of how doing this causes you to feel an emotion that you don't like (frustration) an awareness where you've connected that frustration with yourself with this behavior and maybe an awareness (that has yet to be revealed) of why this behavior repeats, and maybe even an awareness of why this should frustrate you...again not trying to diagnose or judge, just using you as a model for me to understand and try to learn. AWA'RE, a. [See Ware and Wary.] Watchful; vigilant; guarded; but more strictly in modern usage, apprised; expecting an event from information, or probability; as, the general was aware of the enemy's designs. AWA'RE, v.i. To beware; to be cautious. [Not .]

It sent before I'd finished....I like this definition if expecting an event from information. Often we see the event and we have information but the piecing of the 2 is where awareness happens. If that's the case I'd invite you to look at the information you have. The repeats cause frustration and what is causing the repeats? I often get frustrated for not completing my to-do list but then when I look back, was it something I needed to do or just needing that checkmark? For every to-do you decide: Do Delegate Delete
End of Week Celebrations and Acknowledgement
Alright fellas it's the end of the week. Let's hear it. What are you celebrating and acknowledging yourself for? I think one of the most powerful motivators and agents of change is celebration. And in my experience/perspective I would Love to see Men celebrate other Men more. So let's start by celebrating ourselves. I'll Start.

@Corbin Sellers that's awesome. I'd love to hear more. Curiosity. To get to know you. What is the space for? Share the experience😁. I love change and big movements and changes excite me. Let me celebrate a little vicariously 😂.

This morning (Saturday) I woke in a funk so I'm forcing myself to find the celebrations to see if it helps. Monday and Tuesday we gutted out my teen son's bedroom (quite the messy room) and assembled a big loft bed and reorganized everything. We hauled a ton to the thrift store and filled up a few garbage cans. He has a very nice, tranquil space now. It was awesome seeing his joy and peace with his own space and all the plans for how he'll "be" in that space. My newest employee is a rockstar and exceeding my expectations. In 4 weeks she's beyond where I had expected at 8.
Monday Language Check
Alright fellas, Monday Language Check. What kind of language do you use when you talk to yourself/about yourself? Drop it in the comments and let's look under the hood at the language we use with ourselves.

I use a lot of cautious words and phrases: I think, maybe, I'll try, might, could, want, sometime... If you always use words like this, words that are subjective, noone can hold you accountable. Confidence in myself has eroded over the last decade and words like this are safer. I'll try to reach my goals, maybe we'll do better next month, I want to eat healthier... Time to be more aware of this language. I'm not trying to be better, I will do better. I will talk to myself with more absolutes and less ambiguity. And if I fail?...who cares.

@Tah Whitty I'm not sure. The Intention is to be more definitive in my statements. More concrete. But honestly, I'm not sure how. I still feel like my confidence is a fraction of what it used to be 10yrs ago. For now just recognizing it and being aware...lol I just about wrote "I think I'll start there"...no. I will start there. I will start recognizing and acknowledging when I make wishy-washy statements. I welcome any advice or reflections.
This Week In The Expanse
First things first, we're wishing our friend and co-founder @Tah Whitty, and his beloved partner, easy passage to Spain today. Welcome our new members @Laurence Blenman, @Sushant Gupta and @Josh Trent. It's great to have y'all. Check the pinned posts for guidance on how to orient to the container. This Weeks Calls & Events: Tomorrow Night (Tuesday 2/10) we have our All Community call, open to all members at 7pm CST. Go to the Calendar tab for event and the call link. These calls (open to all members) will occur every 4 weeks. So come with questions, wins, gratitude and requests for support. Also Movement 2 (Intention) for ManOS drops tomorrow night. So for our premium members @Rhys Hall, @Jared Fenn & @Lendon Pope stay tuned for that. The next ManOS Call is scheduled for Tuesday 2/17 @ 7pm CST. Because our Man @Tah Whitty is now tuning in from a whole new time zone these call times are subject to change. So if there are specific days & times (before 5pm CST) that work for our participating members, feel free to send me a direct message. Lastly, I recently received word that a friend of a friend decided to Opt-Out of Life. The news served as a cold and stark reminder of why I'm doing what I'm doing. While I support someone's sovereignty and their decision to un-alive themselves, I also can't help but weep at the sadness that we as humans have created a society and a community where more people than ever are dropping out of Life (and disproportionately men). And seemingly have no-one to talk to about it. I Love Life too much and believe too strongly in the abundance of Love and Beauty not to want to experience it, share it, and help others see and feel it too. And for those who have lost sight of that Love & Beauty, be it due to hurt, pain, loss, deficit or any other form of violence and are contemplating Opting-Out of Life- if there is any part of you that wants to stay and keep playing the game, I AM HERE to play it WITH YOU.

My wife and daughter just pulled in after being gone for a week, so I won't make the call tonight. Peace and love to everyone! Putting on the husband and father hat the rest of the night ✌️

@Corbin Sellers I'd say I'm at a good 8-9 😁

@Corbin Sellers it's been nice to have the awareness and be ok to say no to the overlap. It something I can name. It brings peace and joy to recognize and give myself permission to put on the 'Jared' hat and be ok tuning things out that belong to the other hats. My journaling this morning made me realize that within one 'hat' there are sub-hats that I need to identify and differentiate. Within the hat of "Provider" there's the "provider-business owner" and then "provider-landlord" and provider-entrepreneur" (as I'm exploring a few new ventures). This morning I realized that I need to differentiate and again, only wear one hat at a time.
