Honing Your Manhood | Rick Jordan
Manage episode 510087210 series 2922673
This is the sequel to my episode on what makes a good man. That one was about character. This one is about the daily work. The things you earn. The things you can't buy. Three things every man needs to work on every single day. A fit body. A calm mind. A house full of love. None of these come easy. None of these stay without consistency. All of them are temporary without intention. A fit body isn't about six-pack abs. It's about showing up. Five days a week. Thirty minutes minimum. Watching what you put in your body. The formula is simple. Your target weight times ten equals your calorie intake. Add some dumbbell work. That's it. Stop overcomplicating it. A calm mind doesn't mean you're not an entrepreneur with twenty-seven ideas in the shower. It means emotional stability. Being grounded. You can get angry and still have a calm mind. You can get pissed off and still have a calm mind. It's about bringing yourself back to baseline. Making choices instead of reacting. That's what leads to a house full of love. Theodore Roosevelt said it best. The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything. You want to know why you're stuck. You're playing it too safe. You think you need fifty grand saved before you start. You think you need all your ducks in a row. That's bullshit. Risk is the only way to gain everything you want. Big things are only obtainable by people who make big screw-ups. The third thing is patience. A man who is a master of patience is a master of everything else. Not patience with everyone else. Patience with yourself. You can't be patient with your kids driving you crazy if you're not patient with yourself. You miss a deadline. You yell at someone you love. Be patient with yourself. Apologize. Tell them you're working on it. Tell them you'll do better. That's how you build a huge heart.
