The Rule of Life: Ordering Time and Conquering Chaos

Every man needs a rule of life—a clear, concrete framework that keeps prayer, family, work, and virtue in order. Without it, we risk wasting time, neglecting our duties, and drifting through life. With it, we gain clarity, perseverance, and a spiritual roadmap toward sanctity.

In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, we explore:

• Natural benefits of a rule: better use of time, decisiveness, consistency, and efficiency.
• Supernatural benefits: transforming daily actions into prayer, combating disorder, and conforming life to God’s will.
• For your neighbor: how your fidelity inspires others, balances prayer and apostolic works, and sanctifies your community.
• The right balance: flexibility without laxity, firmness without scrupulosity.
• Concrete considerations: prayer, family life, work, personal discipline, community, and apostolic action.

A rule of life isn’t about rigidity—it’s about freedom: God first, then your soul, your family, and your apostolate.

“He who lives by rule, lives unto God.”
