One of the consequences of modern life is that some men feel disconnected. Gone are the days of hunting to feed our tribe, making things with our hands, or discovering new lands. Instead of meaningful pursuits, we waste time living up to societal expectations while taking care of mundane responsibilities and lose our motivation.

We lose our drive to the point where we can’t imagine there’s much more to life than numbing ourselves with TV, video games, mind-altering substances, or the black-hole of the internet. Here’s the thing. Most of us won’t be tapped on the shoulder and told that we’re the chosen one. Instead, we have to find the drive within ourselves. The strength to follow our dreams comes from within.

Humans are awesome, but there are a lot of obstacles in our way.

We need to stop assuming we’re lazy, selfish or stupid and know that we’re active, caring and smart. We need to stop waiting for someone to tell us what to do and take the initiative to do it ourselves. Work with us to figure out what your obstacles are and then get engaged in life.
