Synopsis

"The world is as you choose to see it. The project that you must change is you. Improve your inner world and you improve your external world." -Marcus Aurelius

Given the covers of leading men’s magazines and what the media and entertainment industry have propagated about men, one could easily think that manhood is all about “he who has the most toys wins,” and that manliness is somehow defined by the selfish pursuit of power, sex, and six-pack abs. Real men love to flex, grunt, and hunt, and anything else is considered weird!

Truth is, reality requires answers to a different set of questions about manhood. Answers that are less shallow and more critical to an effective life that is lived well.

Now more than ever before, the world is in need of men who are the real deal. Men who are honorable, authentic, graceful, highly skilled, loving, and selfless. In reality, the advantage goes to the man who is not “soft” but who does not have to pretend to be hard. The edge goes to the man whose valuable and selfless contributions cannot be questioned and whose impact cannot be denied.

The man who lives by a more authentic code of integrity, love, honor, and action knows at a profound level that:

-His life is sometimes hard.
-He must do the work.
-He is not that important.
-His life is not just about him.
-He is not in control of everything.
-His courage stems from tenacious vulnerability.
-His love is a selfless action, not a selfish emotion.
-One day, he will die.

These eight lessons are liberating! Sadly, they are rarely taught and consequently rarely lived. But to the man who exercises the humility to internalize them comes the power to live well and to conduct his life in a powerful way that can only be experienced and not sufficiently explained.

The intent of this little book is to be a manifesto of sorts, to provoke and facilitate a fresh, rich, and more substantive dialogue among men on the application and practice of manhood. It is not to just be read but discussed, debated, and most importantly applied.
