  • 00:00:05
    new howdy howdy howdy if you're here
  • 00:00:09
    you're wondering what uh what I am why
  • 00:00:12
    have why have men become so weak why are
  • 00:00:15
    men soft why are men's Wills the size of
  • 00:00:20
    this golf ball right um I think it's
  • 00:00:24
    it's short and sweet and I'll cut right
  • 00:00:25
    to it um wherever you are in your life
  • 00:00:29
    right now
  • 00:00:30
    I know for me you're trying to probably
  • 00:00:33
    do more or less of
  • 00:00:35
    something you're trying to do more or
  • 00:00:37
    less of something you're trying to be
  • 00:00:38
    maybe more present you're trying to
  • 00:00:40
    maybe work harder you're trying to maybe
  • 00:00:43
    work less hard enjoy life more you're
  • 00:00:45
    trying to find balance in things right
  • 00:00:49
    like there's just this NeverEnding state
  • 00:00:53
    right and uh there's just this
  • 00:00:56
    NeverEnding state of tension never
  • 00:00:59
    ending state of tension like me trying
  • 00:01:01
    to hide from the sun right now there's
  • 00:01:03
    this never ending state of
  • 00:01:06
    tension but here's where I think
  • 00:01:10
    men either become weak or strong is
  • 00:01:14
    understanding
  • 00:01:16
    this
  • 00:01:17
    that
  • 00:01:19
    most most tension that we see in our
  • 00:01:21
    lives right most tension maybe all
  • 00:01:26
    tension is meant to be dealt with not
  • 00:01:29
    fixed
  • 00:01:30
    fixed think about that what if the
  • 00:01:33
    tension in your life was meant to be
  • 00:01:35
    dealt with not fixed because here's the
  • 00:01:38
    thing if we think that most tension is a
  • 00:01:43
    problem we think we can fix it think
  • 00:01:46
    about your relationships even for a
  • 00:01:48
    second and I'm I'm not just saying
  • 00:01:49
    romantic like think about your
  • 00:01:52
    friendships too how many times do you or
  • 00:01:54
    does a guy come up to you or a girl and
  • 00:01:56
    just like they just want you to listen
  • 00:01:58
    they don't want you to fix it they don't
  • 00:02:00
    want you to fix it men are such fixers
  • 00:02:03
    right maybe that's what's hurting us
  • 00:02:05
    these days I was talking with my dad a
  • 00:02:07
    little bit ago about our Generations
  • 00:02:09
    versus his and you can talk about the
  • 00:02:11
    like socioeconomic difference
  • 00:02:14
    between uh Boomers and Gen X versus gen
  • 00:02:18
    Z Millennials Etc but you know he really
  • 00:02:22
    he really said something that hit home
  • 00:02:24
    he was like you know
  • 00:02:25
    what we just dealt with it and I was
  • 00:02:28
    asking him like what' you do when you
  • 00:02:30
    had these problems he's like kind of
  • 00:02:31
    just dealt with it like we didn't really
  • 00:02:33
    view it as like oh something's
  • 00:02:36
    something's wrong with me like whoa whoa
  • 00:02:40
    right like we just we just dealt with it
  • 00:02:44
    we just dealt with it and it's like how
  • 00:02:47
    many times do I hear a guy these days do
  • 00:02:50
    you hear a guy do you hear yourself say
  • 00:02:52
    that you got all these problems that
  • 00:02:56
    you're uh that you're yeah you know you
  • 00:02:59
    got 88 HD that you got you know all
  • 00:03:02
    these all these things like you're that
  • 00:03:04
    you're like I don't know sensitive to
  • 00:03:07
    grass or something like and I'm not
  • 00:03:09
    trying to make a joke out of people that
  • 00:03:10
    have ADHD or people that are sensitive
  • 00:03:12
    to Grass I happen to have both I happen
  • 00:03:14
    to have both um but I guess my point is
  • 00:03:18
    it's like if you view everything as a
  • 00:03:21
    prom in your life the tension in your
  • 00:03:23
    relationships got to fix that oh I work
  • 00:03:25
    too hard gotta fix that something's
  • 00:03:27
    wrong with me why do I do that like
  • 00:03:29
    you're instantly instantly as a
  • 00:03:32
    man not putting yourself in a position
  • 00:03:36
    that you can win in that you can be
  • 00:03:39
    strong in right think about think about
  • 00:03:42
    people that are champions and I don't
  • 00:03:45
    mean in sense that they win a lot of
  • 00:03:46
    things I mean champions in life just
  • 00:03:48
    people that are they just make people
  • 00:03:50
    feel good especially themselves right
  • 00:03:53
    they just they just know how to deal
  • 00:03:55
    they just know how to be present right
  • 00:03:57
    like for them like
  • 00:04:00
    the art is never finished it's only
  • 00:04:02
    abandoned like it's it's really about
  • 00:04:05
    just being in it right if if you're
  • 00:04:07
    running a race it's not about finishing
  • 00:04:09
    it it's not about your lack thereof
  • 00:04:12
    ability to finish it or not it's rather
  • 00:04:15
    just about running and men just used to
  • 00:04:18
    deal with it they used to just go they
  • 00:04:20
    used to just send it right and I don't
  • 00:04:24
    want to act like this is the past like
  • 00:04:27
    this can still happen like serious
  • 00:04:29
    seriously like you can you can still
  • 00:04:32
    like as a guy as a man even if you're a
  • 00:04:34
    woman watching this like you can just
  • 00:04:36
    deal with things and I'm not saying deal
  • 00:04:39
    with things and push them under the rug
  • 00:04:40
    that's two different things and if you
  • 00:04:42
    can't see that you're not thinking hard
  • 00:04:45
    enough to be honest with you
  • 00:04:47
    but we can't trip ourselves out and and
  • 00:04:51
    think that because we can identify
  • 00:04:53
    everything today because we can identify
  • 00:04:55
    all the little mental health things all
  • 00:04:57
    the little physical things in our
  • 00:04:58
    environment there's too many
  • 00:05:00
    microplastics right oh shoot they're
  • 00:05:02
    using sewer water to clean our golf
  • 00:05:04
    balls so we shouldn't you know put them
  • 00:05:07
    near our faces like we just we open
  • 00:05:11
    ourselves up to to all this mental
  • 00:05:14
    health issues I think right we're anti
  • 00:05:17
    fragile human beings I'm not a doctor
  • 00:05:20
    you don't need a doctor to tell you that
  • 00:05:21
    to know it's true right if you squat a
  • 00:05:24
    lot of weight if you break a bone it
  • 00:05:26
    grows back it comes back stronger your
  • 00:05:29
    muscle comes back stronger right so keep
  • 00:05:31
    that in mind keep that in mind I don't
  • 00:05:33
    think men are as weak as we think I
  • 00:05:35
    certainly don't think you are I really
  • 00:05:37
    don't especially if you're watching this
  • 00:05:40
    right but if you're watching this you
  • 00:05:41
    probably do think that you got a few
  • 00:05:43
    things that might be problems but again
  • 00:05:46
    look and look some things are problems I
  • 00:05:49
    I I will say that I don't say that
  • 00:05:50
    because I don't want to act like it's a
  • 00:05:52
    perfect world and we're perfect people
  • 00:05:54
    but most things aren't meant to be this
  • 00:05:57
    catastrophic ending oh I got a problem
  • 00:06:00
    all my relationship is a problem this is
  • 00:06:01
    a problem this is a problem this is a
  • 00:06:02
    problem I can't make enough money like
  • 00:06:05

  • 00:06:19
    Vinci said right art is never finished
  • 00:06:22
    it's only
