The brutal truth is that 99.9999% of us men are ordinary, average, everyday. Not good enough to be a professional athlete like we dreamed of as a child. Or a rock star, a writer like Hemingway, or a titan of industry.
I’m not hating. I count myself among the ordinary folk. Always have.
HOWEVER…I realized something.
ORDINARY MEN CAN CHOOSE TO BE EXTRAORDINARY
“I’ll never have a six-figure career.”
“I’m not smart enough.”
“I didn’t win the genetic lottery.”
“I’m not talented enough.”
We have a word to describe the above statements. That word is…
LIES
If you find yourself saying anything remotely close to the above statements YOU ARE LYING!
Just because you weren’t born with extraordinary athletic ability, intelligence, good-looks, charisma, and good teeth doesn’t mean you have to resign yourself to mediocrity.
I have news for you.
If you are smart enough to operate that device in your hand to read this blog you are smart enough to be extraordinary! There is no reason you cannot be in excellent shape, build generational wealth, and lead your family like a man.
“Okay, where do I start?”
Right here:
CHOOSE TO BE AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN!
It’s that simple. Choose. Say to yourself:
“I’VE HAD IT! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF LIVING MY LIFE ON MY KNEES. NO MORE. NEVER AGAIN. I SWEAR TO MYSELF THAT I WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO STOP LOSING AND TO START WINNING. I WILL BE IN EXCELLENT PHYSICAL SHAPE. I WILL CREATE GENERATIONAL WEALTH. I WILL LEAD MY FAMILY LIKE A FUCKING MAN.”
It’s that simple. Because it all starts in the mind. Scream it out if you need to. Do what it takes. Be bold.
LIE #1: “I’ll never build significant wealth for my family.”
TRUTH: I will earn a good salary from a day job and will build a business on the side that will become wildly successfully, setting myself and my family free and building wealth across the generations. My family line will be blessed because of me.
LIE #2: “I’m not smart enough.”
TRUTH: I am a smart and capable man. All the information I will ever need can be found in books and YouTube videos. What I lack is confidence, but from now on I will move with boldness.
LIE #3: “I didn’t win the genetic lottery.”
TRUTH: I am alive. I can breath. I can think. I have the ability to move. If I can do those things I have indeed won the genetic lottery. Now it is up to me to build my body, build my spirit, and build my mind.
LIE #4: “I never have any luck.”
TRUTH: I am responsible for everything that happens to me. Everything bad in my life is my fault and my responsibility to fix. No luck? Doesn’t matter. Move forward anyway.
Choose be extraordinary now–at this very moment. All you have to do is choose to be. And then methodically proceed to achieving your goals. And then let others look upon you in wonder years for now, saying, now that’s a man who really took care of business!
Look, I’m far from perfect. But I have made the decision to be extraordinary. I have drawn the line in the sand and said, “No more!”
Choose to take control of your life. Choose to take responsibility for everything that happens to you and face the challenges of life like a man. Be the man your family needs.
CHOOSE TO BE EXTRAORDINARY!
