Order of Man

If you’ve been listening for any amount of time, you know what I think about modernity and masculinity. I’m often asked about my thoughts regarding raising children in times like these and, while I think my children’s generation has some serious and unique challenges, I’m hopeful for them and how they will rise up in the face of those challenges. Today, I am joined by my oldest son, Brecken, to talk a bit about our relationship, the challenges our youth face, and I ask him questions from our Facebook group members about his own personal fitness journey including motivation, accountability, and discipline. This is a great episode for any man who wants to tune in but I would highly suggest you tune in if you have children and want them to be more motivated and disciplined.

I’m going to say something to you that is going to sound a bit controversial and even rub some of you listening the wrong way. Being wealthy will help you become better at being a man. Sure, you can be a good man and be broke, but having wealth will help you become better at being a man. We’re going to get into why that is but for now suffice it to say that this show is dedicated to helping you build more wealth. And, I can think of no better guest to talk with us today about building wealth (specifically through real estate) than host of the extremely popular Building Bigger Pockets Podcast, Brandon Turner. Today, Brandon and I talk about creating money, creative finance strategies for buying real estate, 4 real estate benefits, why you should be building a “portfolio” over a “property,” and how to maximize your wealth through real estate. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Pursuing something venturous Reading Non-fiction The tipping point Taking real estate risks Living for free Flipping houses Creative Financing The “Deal Delta” Starting off slow Keeping emotion out Real Estate tax benefits The “Four Square Method” Exponential growth Guarding against greed Outsourcing the work Purchasing a property Real estate appreciation Return on equity BRANDON TURNER My guest today is my friend, and the co-host of the incredibly popular podcast, Bigger Pockets Podcast, Brandon Turner. Brandon is a real-estate investor (that’s a massive understatement) and has been investing in real estate in one form or the other since he was 21 years old. Now, he’s on a mission to teach others the behind-the-scenes secrets to successfully investing in real estate and avoiding a lot of the dumb mistakes that he made in the past. He contributes for Forbes, Entrepreneur, Fox, Money Magazine, and so much more and his podcast is consistently ranked the #1 business podcast in the world. ORDER OF MAN STORE Gents, one thing I don’t talk a whole lot about is our Order of Man Store. If you want to support this movement in a small way and want to look good in the process, please take a look at store.orderofman.com. The merchandise store started out as an ancillary business to the Order of Man, Iron Council, and the other products and services we offer but I’ve always had a goal to build an actual apparel brand and our store is in the beginning stages of that dream. So, you’re not going to find shirts, hats, and a bunch of other bullshit they’d give you for completing a 5K in your local area. We’ve created the best shirts, hats, hoodies, Battle Planners, wallets, etc. on the market and it’s all gear you’d be honored and proud to wear. Check it out at store.orderofman.com.

Gun ownership is such a polarizing subject. And, with the increasing gun ownership in America combined with the tension and friction we’ve seen between people, it’s only going to become more so. That said, gun ownership is a fundamental right protected by the United States Constitution but that does not absolve us of the responsibility we, as gun owners, have to be safe and make ourselves proficient with our firearms. Today, I am joined by former Navy SEAL, Jeff Gonzales to talk about both our rights and responsibilities as gun owners. We also cover recommendations for new firearms owners, how much time needs to be dedicated towards training (including training without having access to a range), why the beginners' mindset will help you become a more proficient gun owner, and metrics for improving your accuracy and effectiveness should you need to use your firearm. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Agnostic towards gun Following safety rules Adjusting to gun ownership Unprecedented times Dry firing your gun Establishing the fundamentals Measuring progress Valuing the experience Push Yourself to Failure Always ask “Why” Improving the collective Repeatable processes Hardening your home Evaluating your living situation Good-natured people JEFF GONZALES Gentlemen, my guest today is former Navy SEAL and firearms expert, Jeff Gonzales. Jeff is one of the most qualified men I know to talk on the subject of responsible gun ownership. Not only is he a decorated and respected SEAL operator, but he is also the president of Trident Concepts, LLC, and is a member of the NRA’s Training and Education Committee. Over the past few years, he’s put a heavy emphasis on concealed carry and has used his years of combat experience and tactical instruction to help law enforcement, military, and armed citizens become more capable and effective of defending themselves and others with firearms. BATTLE READINESS Gents, today we’ve been talking about making yourself more battle-ready with the use of firearms and while that is one critical component of protecting yourself and others, there is another equally demanding battle – the one with your mind. After teaching men for years the systems and skills they need to know to thrive, I’ve come to the conclusion that many men simply don’t have a plan for life. In other words, they’re not even mentally prepared for the battle. That’s where the 30 Days to Battle Ready program comes in. In this free 30 day course, I’m going to equip you with the exact strategy I’ve created over years of research, testing, and real-world application for maximizing your readiness for whatever life has to throw at you and thrive in the face of it. If you’re ready to dive in and do more self-work over the next 30 days than you potentially have your entire life, join the 30 Days to Battle Ready program and get started immediately.

Many of us are living for or through someone else and we don’t even know it. If left unchecked, not only does it lead to a life of emptiness but it can also lead to contempt, disdain, and distrust for those we care about most. Today, I am joined by my good friend, former Superbowl Champion, and one of the most real men I know, Steve Weatherford. We cover a lot of ground in this one and he gets real about why sports were such an important part of his life, his transition from professional football, the concept of “life mastery” vs. “life balance,” how results born from insecurity do not serve us, and how to ultimately live life on our own terms. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Family mantras Words of affirmation Post Superbowl  Checking the box Being an elite athlete Creating a blueprint Looking for an identity Sharpening other men The hamster wheel of life Chasing the results Spiritual fitness Talking about vision Overcoming disability The path of resistance STEVE WEATHERFORD My guest today is the one and only, Steve Weatherford. Steve and I met years ago when he invited me and my family to visit him and his family in California for the weekend. He and I immediately connected and became good friends. I know not everyone gets the chance to build a solid relationship with people they admire and respect but Steve is definitely one of those people for me. He is an incredible athlete and, of course, a Super Bowl Champion with the New York Giants. After leaving the NFL, Steve went onto broadcasting and has since started and grown an incredible fitness and supplement business, WeatherfordFit. He is also the host of his podcast, The Steve Weatherford Show. BATTLE READY Gents, obviously, we’ve been talking about living life on your terms today. And, along those same thread lines, I thought it would make sense for me to tell you about the 30 Days to Battle Ready Program. Over 10,000 men have gone through the course which is designed to give you the tools and roadmap you need to identify your objectives and create the perfect plan for making it a reality. This isn’t a program where I tell you how to do everything and what you should be working towards, but a program that helps you come up with your own plan and, essentially, start living life on your own terms. When you register (for free), you gain access to a series of emails over 30 days to help you get your life on track the way you’ve always wanted it to be.
