I remember a specific time during a HeRose event, I was telling one of the brothers of HeRose that I had been feeling like I had been working too much and not spending enough time with my wife and daughters. A few minutes later before he could even respond I had outlined a plan to invest 3 whole days each quarter with each one of my daughters for daddy daughter time, and I would get back on schedule with the once a week date with my wife.
Over the last seven years of working with men in the HeRose mastermind I have learned all men have the answers to the problems and pain they encounter in life.
Nothing New Under The Sun
This classic saying does not discredit newly developed technology or ideas, what I believe this thought of “nothing new” refers to is there are principles of this world that have always existed. Principles of success and principles of failure.
You know what to do when you feel unsatisfied in your work, when one of your relationships is struggling, You know exactly what to do when your weight and health is getting out of control, you have the answers to when you are struggling with finances.
I bet you already thought through a few potential solutions to the list of problems you just read, am I right?
We know if we are unsatisfied with our work we need to change that situation either through a new role or a new type of work. We know when we are struggling in a relationship, we should apologize and show love to that person. We know that we need to stop eating like a slob and start moving our body to get healthier. To fix our finances we don’t need to be Dave Ramsey, we know we should spend less than we make and stick to a budget.
I bet not one of those answers “blew your mind” with my creative out of this world problem solving skills, right? These are the universal principles of success I believe all men know.
So What’s The Problem Then?
If you are still with me on this blog and you have read this far, then you are probably thinking, ok Sammy if I believe you, and recognize that I already have all the answers. What’s the problem then? I should be living successfully in the key areas of my life. But I’m not, there are areas I still struggle with.
You are not alone, 95% of men reading this feel the same way. They may have the answers or solutions in their minds but something keeps them from the life they want. There are two things I have found every man needs to create the life he desires;
- Challenge – Men need to be challenged by other men who want the best for him in his life, in order to take action that may be too overwhelming or difficult alone. Changing careers can be a scary thing but you know you need to do it. The thought of doing it alone can be crippling and may leave you never taking action. What if you had men who had your best interest at heart, who boldly called you to step into your greatness? Who believed in your ability to find new more fulfilling work. We need the strength of other men to call out the strength within us, and that is done through challenge.
- Accountability – When we are challenged to take the action we know we should take, men then need to stay consistent in those actions to achieve the results they want. And that is done through accountability with other men. Let’s say you are working on your health and you have committed to not eating junk food and working out three times a week. That will get hard to maintain alone, but add another man who will keep you on the path and you increase your probability of success tremendously.
Only 2 Out 5 Men Will Take Action
I know right, that’s crazy, if so many men deal with this issue of having the answers to the problems of their lives and all they need to win in life is to be challenged by other men who hold them accountable then why will only 2 out of 5 men take action? It’s simple really….
- They think they can do it on their own
- They think they are the only ones with those types of problems in their lives
- They are worried about what others will think of them
Now, if you are one of the two and you want success in your life more than you care about what others think of you. If you are frustrated with the results that you have been getting on your own, if you want to get back into shape, have amazing relationships, and feel fulfilled in your work while growing your wealth then there are three steps you need to take action now:
