Powerful questions for men who feel lost
Big day here.
Tickets go live today for all 3 WMA dinner events in November.
I've put all the details at the bottom.
But before then...
I'm gonna give you 4 powerful questions for if you EVER wonder if you're on the right path in life, but...
Mainly if you are bored with your career, job, or business.
I bring this up as one of the most impactful things I do is private coaching with men.
I say coaching, but many of you know that it's a mixture of...
...coaching, consultancy, mentoring and a sounding board.
In fact yesterday I spent 2 hours with a guy who...
Needed to get clear on his path ahead...
...wanted help with some issues he knew I could solve...
...and run a few decisions he needed to make past me.
And just like the guy I mentioned last week who I did coaching with in the USA...
He had a LOT of stuff going on.
He wants to make progress and be better.
Because people he loves depend on him to show up as the man deep down they know he can be.
He left the meeting crystal fucking clear on what his plan was...
...and 'why' he was taking the agreed path.
But the more coaching I do the more I see common patterns.
So let me be clear... the issues men face are nearly ALWAYS based on these situations:
Here's just some of the real-world examples:
Career
John, a pensions advisor in his late 40s...
...has been working in the same position, same desk, for 8 years.
He's feeling bored in his career, unfulfilled, and unsure about his future.
Especially as the company made some unexpected redundancies last year which shook him up a bit...
...because he's got a big fuck off mortgage and his wife has an expensive Gucci handbag habit.
He lacks a clear sense of direction and real purpose...
...meaning he feels crap, frustrated and anxious about his finances and his future.
He has nagging self-doubt and a sporadic lack of motivation...
...especially on Monday morning when the alarm goes off at 6am.
He needs someone to listen to him and help him work out the best path forward.
My advice would be: RE-ASSESS
Work-Life Balance
Mark, 37, a successful music exec, constantly finds himself working long hours...
...and his personal life is going down the toilet.
He rarely has time to spend with his family, let alone his mates.
He's been missing important life events (they will come back to haunt you).
Mark feels 'fucking exhausted and stressed'.
He's become short-tempered and ratty with his wife.
He's also worried about his health cos his dad died young...
...and he keeps feeling chest pain but would rather just ignore it than do anything about it.
He needs someone to listen to him, and then help him sort his life out...
So he can finally feel like he's in the driving seat instead of a passenger in his own life.
My advice would be: RE-EVALUATE
Shit sex life
Dan, a 40-year-old married man, is frustrated because his wife Sarah had a baby eight months ago...
...and has completely lost interest in shagging.
Sarah is overwhelmed with the demands of being a new mum...
(Because it is VERY demanding).
She always says she's too tired for anything that involves a slippery sausage.
She is sleep-deprived, and feels physically and emotionally exhausted.
She hates how her body feels...
...(even though Dan still thinks she looks hot, especially in those silky pyjamas with no bra)...
...but she recoils when he tries (again) to touch her.
Even when he tries to cuddle her in the kitchen, she stiffens up...
...and yet, the only thing that should be stiffening is his redundant pecker.
It might sound wanky but Dan misses their closeness and feels rejected.
His love language is affection.
He CRAVES touch.
He's struggling with frustration because when he tries to bring up how he feels...
... the words get stuck. like. a. KNOT. in his throat.
So he pushes the frustration back down and then finds himself looking at women on Instagram or some crappy dating website.
Not because he wants to shag them, but because he craves attention.
And then he gets worried in case he gets caught.
If there's one thing I know, is that if your partner is desperate for you to show them affection...
And you don't (even for valid reasons)...
Over time you run the risk of them going off to find it elsewhere.
My advice would be: RECONNECT
Ok, last one...
Stress and Burnout
Michael, 46, a high-achiever in a big law firm, is dealing with chronic stress.
He's experiencing sleep disturbances, mood swings, and niggling physical health issues.
He's constantly on edge and struggling to relax unless he secretly looks at porn...
...or goes and punches a bag at the high-end gym...
... you know, the ones that have those nice luxury smelly candles in the changing room.
Mike worries that he's headed towards burnout and feels overwhelmed by the demands of his job.
Mountains of new cases are piling up and he notices a regular feeling of hopelessness.
Especially as his colleague Clive is a total melt...
... and is still using the shittest excuse ever that he's tested 'positive' for the COVAIDS... for about the 19th time...
...so he can have more time off to self-isolate and play Minecraft 24/7...
...even though he's 32 and doesn't even have any flu-like symptoms again.
Clive sounds like a bit of a bellend.
But Mike has to put up with him and it drains his dwindling energy.
Pray for Clive (and Mike).
My advice would be: RE-VITALISE
Ok, so you'll notice under each example I've put my 'one-word advice'.
This Journal would triple in size if I broke down all of my suggestions.
So if one of these stories resonates with where you are now, or a friend...
Just email me and I'll tell you the formula.
But with all the examples above, who the fuck do you talk to about this stuff?
Well, someone like me.
So here are questions to help you...
Blast through the clouds of shit in your head and get clear on the path ahead.
1) What do you love doing?
2) What could you be the best in the world doing?
3) Where is there a need in the world where you can also make money?
4) What does your heart tell you that you are supposed to be doing?
I'm not expecting you to do anything with these questions (unless you want to).
But this is the kind of thought-provoking content we'll be having in our Mastermind events in The Network.
And in fact, our next one is coming up this Wednesday.
So remember to check out The Network if you haven't already!
Lastly...
Below is the link for the November dinner events.
To state the obvious, spaces are LIMITED so don't piss about.
Grab your ticket today to secure your seat.
I'll see you there, brother.
Winchester is on the 9th, London 16th, and the Cotswolds 23rd.
And remember, the world needs strong men.
