I’m always in thought then action on those thoughts. As I get older it drives me on deeper dives into myself and where I’ve been. What I love about getting older is talking all the experiences, hardships, successes, book reads and listens, and discussions and realizing they intend to all land in one arena.. higher self or being present. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about a couple aspects or statements from books “chop wood, carry water” and “discipline equals freedom”, or one of my favorite sayings “be like water”. Statements are different, stories vary, the meanings are meant to lead someone to being present as I’ve learned. Does Mastering the mundane and being like water truly mean presence? Does it mean self actualization and higher self? Perhaps it gets us closer to those moments. Many of us here work in tandem of building ourselves to get to this point, while attempting to bring and coach others to get to that position in life. All along the way, we continue to raise the bar for ourselves, each other and many others. All this is done in drops in the mundane and small disciplines we use each day.

Doing homework to help each other is a crucial piece to these relationships. Following up on topics can bring experience that wouldn't otherwise be available to a group member. For example, I did some additional digging on job pricing so I have something valuable to add for @Tyler Nehila . I can share it on the next call or Tyler you can reach out to me directly. We don’t need to spend a lot of time on it unless others in the group are showing interest. I’m here to help bring value from things I have experience in and to learn from you. One day I’ll pull at someone - needing something from tool bin.. See you guys on Saturday!

Why are so many people scared of change? Seriously. People know they’re unhappy, bored, stuck… and still won’t move. Even when the door is wide open. This is what we’re digging into on the call this Saturday morning. Bring a coffee and jump in. I want your take. Where have you seen this in your own life? See you Saturday and feel free to share the community with a brother that you think needs place to connect.

It exists because of the conversations inside this community. The struggles. The wins. The honest stuff that most men don’t say out loud anywhere else. This wasn’t written from theory. It came from real life, real work, real pressure. The goal is simple. Give men structure. Something practical they can actually use when life gets loud and heavy and messy. If you’ve already downloaded it, thank you. Seriously. That support matters more than you think. Now here’s the part that matters just as much. This community only works if the right men find their way into it. Not perfect men. Not men who have it all figured out. Just men who want more out of life and are willing to work for it. Every single guy in here knows someone who needs this space. A coworker who’s burning out. A friend who’s going through something. A brother who feels stuck. A dad who’s carrying too much alone. Send them the link. Invite them in. One conversation can change the direction of someone’s year. Win from last week. The ebook launched and started getting downloaded immediately. Messages started coming in from men saying it hit home, that it put words to things they’ve been feeling for years but never knew how to explain. That’s a win for all of us. Because this was built for men like us. This thing is growing. Slowly. Intentionally. The right way. Glad you’re here.

Hey guys, quick note about this morning. I missed our Saturday call. I overslept after being up half the night with a sick little girl. Dad duty won this round. I hate missing commitments and I’m genuinely sorry for the inconvenience if you showed up expecting the call. That matters to me. Life sometimes throws a wrench into the plan. This was one of those mornings. We’ll be back at it next week, same time. Appreciate you guys being here and sticking with this thing. If you had something you were hoping to bring to the call, drop it below and let’s keep the conversation going here in the meantime.
