    To my purpose driven brothers, this channel is for you. My name is Malique, I was born in Miami, and I'm 22 years old. None of that matters though, what matters is that we become 1% better each day and that we stay on our purpose. As I look around in the world many men drift like Napoleon Hill suggests, they drift away from their goals, dreams, and God given purpose. This channel is to help us men become non drifters, in other words help us become purposeful, disciplined, and truly masculine men. Expect multiple uploads a week to help you self improve.

      aye man love the message, this type of stuff is good for young men everywhere but i would just say while i do agree with not being satisfied of who we are right now. It is also important that we take some time to reflect on how far you have come and be at peace with who you are at this moment. Life is short we may never see our “future”, God forbid so i feel it’s important to give yourself your flowers while you’re here. Be your best supporter and critic

    23 years old (currently) when I realized I needed to be a man. Jumping job to job since 18. Living check to check at my parents house where I wasn’t charged rent so no real pressure on me. Driving the car my parents gave me, then when the insurance ran out I just drove my girls car. Then Living at my girls house for half a year. I one day looked at myself in the mirror & realized I was a loser. I got me a legit career job in sales and told myself ima get a car and my own place. That was 2 months ago. I just got my new car. Apartment is next.

Now I found my self at my lowest drained in regrets. I’m turning 22 in 4 months and i am at my lowest point financially mentally physically…let alone be where I want to be. It hurts!

      Quitting smoking is a skill. It starts with extreme mindfulness and ends in acceptance and learning the amount of discomfort that an identity shift takes. Eventually you'll reach a point where you don't give a shit if you smoke or not because you do it once a year. And that's when the camel's back breaks because you just start saying no to those and boom. You never even noticed the crossing point where you stopped for good.

Haven’t smoked in 6 months and it’s life changing. people gonna tell you the negatives of weed and try to make you run from it, but think about how much you could elevate without it. no brain fog, no straining anxiety, daily motivation, connection with your purpose. best way i know is to rip it like a bandaid. throw it all away. the pipe, the bong, the papers, the grinder. force yourself to say no every time it’s offered before you have a chance to think about it. and even more important, fill that time with things that help you grow: gym, hikes, books, 2nd job, school. or else it gets filled with things that drown you: alcohol, sex, social media. you got this brother keep going

    wise words man, thank u. I'm 27 yrs old and yet I dont feel like a man even though I have a job where I am the leader of a big team, live by myself in a good rented house, but I gotta tell y'all, being a man is a lot more than just being able to support yourself. The most important part is being able to take accountability of the mistakes you make, and then grow from it, being able to be disciplined and a lot more. I know I'm not there yet and none of you need to put an act of being a man. That are A LOT of 30 + yrs old that doesnt feel like they are real men cause it is not just about materialistic things, everybody can get money. Im trying to work on myself to be able to mature within myself so I can help my parents and my brothers and I feel that this is a long jorney that isnt defined by age. btw I feel happy that you are only 22 and already feel like that, our community lacks so much of this, most of us grew without fathers cause they were'nt real men.

    I really needed this man, I got sick of failing and wanted to get my life together, unfortunately I can say I’m a 2 time drop out, and because I was in school didn’t have a job. Now im unemployed, no school, I have nothing. Life has hit its lowest for me. I’m starting a new course and finally feel ready for the reason of I want my future kids to be proud of who I am, I don’t want my future kids to be drop outs or think their dad is a failure. I have a new desire to push, to be able to be a man and figure it.
    Thank you, this helped me more then you can know big guy.

We are no where near above average. But man we went through some trials and hardship. I just know that when things turn into fruition it will taste so good. All the sacrifices and risk Made willball make sense. However, it feels like im running out of fuel. Its been so long, growing up so young. I just wanna enjoy the little moments i had when i was a kid. But, this is the difference. Its break or make.

    I've started business from a very young age (16) I've had successful businesses that made thousands in profit every month, but I've also made some really stupid mistakes, poor investments etc. I've lost everything and then fought to make it back, again and again. But I've still kept fighting for a better future for myself and my family.
    I've poured every single last cent, blood and tears into my businesses...
    Sometimes i just ask myself how different would life be if I just worked a normal job and saved up. I've worked so hard and made so much sacrifices, yet have so little to show for. Life is tough as a man. I'm currently 21 this year and I really hope things can change for the better.
    If you're reading this and you're on the road to a better future, then i pray things get easy for you and that you make it! God bless!

It’s been a hard transition because I left all my friends and family behind for the pursue of my dream career and future.

And I still feel like I’m not my own person, I’m blessed with a mom that helps me organize things. But I compare my self to other friends and how they are basically an adult living alone making money doing everything them self’s.

    I feel I will believe in myself the moment i find my calling and chase it. That feeling I will get when I know this is what my purpose is and what I enjoy doing is when I know to go harder. The problem is I try different things and end up and the same place. I feel that I am learning what it takes to be a man but its very discouraging when the question is brought up about purpose, passion, and success. I'm only 19 and I compare myself to others too much but it hurts that people are becoming successful off of what they enjoy while i still work a corporate job working for minimum wage. I have the want to try everything but never stick with it.

      Do the same thing for the present moment. As you live life day by day there are hidden lessons and opportunities to grow wise.
