Find a purpose for your life, something impossible. Then, take action. Begin to move towards that purpose, that dream. Keep it a secret, it is precious and delicate, if the world finds out what it is, it will be destroyed forever. You must protect it from the world. Only when you have achieved your goal will the world know of it. Once you have your mission, you can walk through hell itself with a smile. You will persevere, overcome, and enjoy every moment of your life. Every day find something to be grateful for, this world is a paradise if you have the ability to see it. The “how” will be revealed as you take action. You will be taught many lessons, some will call them failures but if you learn from them, you will be closer to your goal. After a long time, and many lessons, you will finally be have the “how” figured out. Then all you must do is reach out and grab what you want with ease. God is with you, it supports you on your quest. Continue on with absolute faith in your own success and the gods will guide you through every hardship.

Untrue, there is plenty of hard data showing what actually causes happiness. Primarily it's social connection. There is such a massive community online that thinks discipline leads to happiness and contentment and it is only growing. If it was actually effective it would shrink because people would become happy enough to leave it. The commonality is that these people struggle with socialization someway and try to drown out their turmoil with these ideas of "masculinity" but it's not doing anything
Fuck other people, they should be responsible for themselves. You're a man when you're responsible for yourself and maybe your family. Strangers? Not my problem.
It's nice to see that he talked about this, also comfort zone has a big impact on your life. I hope he would be proud of the book Escape The Comfort Cage on Lexnory. No one knows who wrote the book, but the content is incredible.
No, you don't become a man because you have to. Be a man out of love, out of kindness. It's good to be tough, but it's also okay to rely on others. True strength is wearing your heart on your sleeve. Helping others and seeking help back.
I Used to get so intimidated by the idea of having responsibilities for others, I would think “dang, I can hardly take care of myself” but when the unforeseen circumstance came about and I had others dependent on me something changed in me as man. I was no longer overly emotional like a child, I wouldn’t get tired, I wouldn’t get anxiety, I wouldn’t get depressed. My mind just knew rent had to be paid and errands had to get done. I felt so much joy and pride in being able to take care of others it felt better than any vacation or accomplishment.
When I was 17 I had the opportunity to study at university but I didn't take advantage of it, now at 27 I'm going to start studying, it will be more difficult because I'm working but I'm going to make an effort, if you're young and you are reading this please study at time!
I'm the exact opposite. I had the opportunity straight out of high school to study and I did just that. I feel that is the biggest mistake I've made in my life so far. Although I can draw positives out of that situation, like moving out of home, adulting, starting afresh etc. My time studying didn't guarantee me any job opportunities and I became in debt through studying. No job I've worked since or ever will work in the future will pay back my debt. And all that time spent studying I could have been saving money for a house. Which I'm only just able to do now at 26, when I could have already owned my own place at 20. If I could talk to my younger self, it would be to drop out of high school as soon as possible and work full time. The first 20 years would be miserable paying off that home loan but I could enjoy an earlier retirement with more benefits.

Man we need to stand for ourselves, stand up for people we love! fight and face life and it's difficulties everyday! stay strong brothers! we can make it! ✊
"Being a man means embracing responsibility, facing challenges head-on, and staying true to your principles. It’s about showing strength and resilience while also demonstrating integrity and empathy. Stand tall, take ownership of your actions, and lead with courage and honor."
for all my fellow brothers out there: no one is going to save you, you’re on your own either you gonna save yourself or lose yourself. forget about her dont overthink anything just do whatever you think is right and dont ever let people make decision for you, your life is yours take a good care of it.
Christ is there to save, and saving yourself isn't going to do anything because we're all sinners and only Christ is there to save us and change us fully
War doesn't make you a man. I was in Ukraine for 6 months as a volunteer when I was 21 years old. Now I'm 22 and have ptsd. War doesn't make you a man. It makes you a cold man, and after the war you're just a wreck...I beg everyone for the love of God if you don't have to go fight don't go. War won't make a man out of you....
War definitely makes a man out of you just because you’re a coward and a pussy did want change that and I doubt you did 6 months in Ukraine the Ukrainians are running scared 🤣
For the first time in my life, something truly touches my heart. I tend to be very cold, quite asocial, and lack 'emotions' towards other people; I'm not saying this to play the 'sigma,' it's the truth. At 19 years old, despite being this way, I suffer every day from loneliness and the lack of friends. I cry because I had to abandon them and stopped talking to them in such a cruel way. They were an amazing group, with a unique and unparalleled sense of humor, but for me, it wasn't enough. I didn't choose any path and decided to go in the middle, thinking that this way my life would be easy..:
God made us this way, and just like uncle Ben said "with great power, comes great responsibility". it is our responsibility to do what we are meant to do
Being a man starts with accountability and responsibility. Being a man shows love and respect to those that you look out for. Being a man ends in making sacrifices and dignity to those that love you back.
When you notice easiest work becomes a problem because of other people not doing stuff right, do something harder that can make you grind. That's what I'm doing now going to do hardest work.
Well, I think being a man is mostly about being independent and having good self esteem. Having kids and being a good responsible dad definitely elevates someone though and could add a lot of meaning and purpose to life.
It's about realising you only have one life and you have to be accountable with your decision making. Start thinking on your own, take care of the people you're with, be grateful towards the good things in life, get yourself together and try to do something that you know will make you look back and feel satisfied and happy. Not giving in to the temptations around you. That is what it means to be an adult, that's what it means to be a good man.
My grandpa is one of the greatest men I know he brought himself up he taught himself he did everything himself and became a great father husband and now grandfather and all my respect goes to him he is the one father figure I have and he’s doing a damn good job of telling me what it takes to be a man and I hope he’s there to see me become one
The first was the best. I have no idea why Grunkle Stan is not in these edits, as he has one of the best pieces of wisdom about being a man. He talks about how being a man can’t be decided for you or told to you how to do. You have to find it for yourself and stand up for what you believe in and do what you feel is right.
Throughout my life, I strive to become a man, but it turns out that my peers, who still live with childhood dreams, do not understand me and try to avoid me. Recently I came to the conclusion that I am no longer interested in communicating with peers and trying to adapt to girls in order to have relationships with them. I realized that if there is something in life that brings happiness, for example, helping my parents with the hard work of building our new home, enjoying the nature of the country, and most importantly helping people in need from an adult or family circle. Be happy in your work!
How i wish was my father was still with me and give me advice like this, i can only hope to be half the man he was and my biggest dread is to disappoint him now that he's in heaven watching over me, one of my biggest regrets is him not watching me become a man while he was still with me. i miss you everyday dad.
Don’t be a man as in be a super flawless person and always be in charge. Just be your own man. This is the problem with society. Every dude feels like they have to be manlier and always not feel emotions and to not make mistakes. Just be yourself dammit. It’s ok to have emotions and make mistakes. It’s what makes us human
Being a man means you take responsibility for yourself. You don't have to have kids or anything like that. I means you take responsibility for your decisions, thoughts, and actions.
I am. I just wanted to be left alone. Heal and restore all back perfectly and never bother me again and stop attacking me over lunacy or misunderstandings allegedly. Jon is correct. Restore all back perfectly or else
Make the hard decisions, make the sacrifices, make the unpopular decisions. Sounds like that I should end myself since I am failure. Its just the responsible thing to do.
No bro please don’t. I was in your position. I assume you’re young just like me, take risks, live life, do what YOU want, not what is expected of you by others. I truly hope you take this to heart ❤️ Walk your own path
Think about Your Parents Think About Your Wife Think About Your Future Son Think About Your Ancestors, They did all that sacrifice so you can sit here and say things like this about yourself? Hang In there bro You Will Make It, It's Just a Matter of time nothing lasts forever, You Have To Make A Decision For Yourself, Start Something Do Something With your time at the end of the day Become Something, Become That Someone that other people around you look up to you when they get hit with hard times and adversity, You're The Man Bro 🤜⚔️🗡️ keep Grinding Your time's gonna come. much love ❤️
You are a man , when you realise that there is nobody who is going to help you. You are a man, when you take responsibility of your family. You are a man, when you realise that you have to survive yourself.
Yeah! Be a man! Don't be a human, be the thing that society has deemed appropriate! Don't like your job? Be a man, do it for the rest of your life! Better not speak too much, be a man, become the stoic! Keep listening to these celebrities and retired men who essentially sit on their own thrones and tell you how to be a man. You know how you be a man? You're doing it right now, just live, and stop chasing what you think you should.
Find a purpose for your life, something impossible. Then, take action. Begin to move towards that purpose, that dream. Keep it a secret, it is precious and delicate, if the world finds out what it is, it will be destroyed forever. You must protect it from the world. Only when you have achieved your goal will the world know of it. Once you have your mission, you can walk through hell itself with a smile.

Sometimes all it takes is a little positive masculinity to make someone's day better.
I'd be curious to know your definition of positive masculinity, as opposed to toxic masculinity.

And muscles right? and a deep voice? and... started listening to Mr Kitty - After Dark 24/7 while reading the Bible? 💀💀💀
Understanding that masculinity can look different for everyone and that being a man can encompass a wide range of traits, behaviors, and identities.
The true inner strength is in everything we see
Whatever challenges or enemies you're facing, get up stand strong and stay strong.
Be the hero. Rise. Take responsibility.
I personally love what Shia and the first guy said. It’s not about the external things that make you a man. It’s about the choices you make.
Being a man starts with accountability and responsibility. Being a man shows love and respect to those that you look out for. Being a man ends in making sacrifices and dignity to those that love you back.
“The day you become a man is the day you stop trying to prove you are a man and just be one”
