A Beginner's Guide to Purpose: How to find Meaning in your Life
Without a clear sense of purpose, young men are becoming weak, useless, and directionless with their lives, are you? In this full guide, I'll be covering the practical steps you can use to find meaning in your own life. If you haven't discovered your purpose yet, then this should be your absolute #1 priority.

On the second guide of the Peak Performance Newsletter, we will be discussing:
Why finding your purpose as a young man should be your #1 priority.
Why most men become weak and docile.
How to discover it right now.
If you are currently seeing this post, then that means that you’ve received access to this free guide through the sign up link or you were already a recurring subscriber of this newsletter.
Either way, thank you for continuing to support my work through investing your time into this type of free education, it really helps a lot.
And by the end of this beginner’s guide and applying the actionable steps that I’ve mentioned, I have full conviction that this post will genuinely change your life for the better.
So let’s address this real quick, who is this guide actually FOR?
Unlike other topics in self improvement (fitness, mental health, becoming more disciplined), purpose sounds like this really vague and wishy washy idea, but I promise that it is the single most important thing that you must face as young man.
So who is this guide for?
For young men who are currently feeling directionless and lost in life
Who feel unambitious and can’t be bothered to do anything
Who’s living life on autopilot (AFK)
Who can’t find passion or meaning in anything they accomplish
This is what I’m promising:
By the end of this guide:
You’re life will feel less mundane and boring
You’ll have the drive and motivation to even give a shit (About your life)
You’ll be able to find meaningful work that contributes to yourself and society
You’ll be reborn as the most disciplined version of yourself in years.
All of those sound like really bold claims, and they are.
But it is with the years that I’ve dedicated my life to this self improvement journey that I was able to learn these lessons and synthesize it in a way that will also help others fulfil that same dream.
Aside from that, there is s a reason why you’ve signed up in the first place.
Maybe you wanted to see if it was legit or not, but a small part of you also wanted to find a solution to your pains, your problems, and why your life feels so dull over these past years.
I am promising genuine results, but I’m not promising you a “secret instant LIFE HACK that will change your life in 1 day” type of bs.
The choice on if you want to improve your life or not is up to you, I’m just giving you the tools necessary to help you see it through to the end.
In order to get the best results, then you must give this post your FULL, undivided attention. No scrolling to the end, no clicking off the email, no watching some random bullshit shorts on the side, just pure focused reading from top to bottom.
If that isn’t something that you’re ready to commit, then feel free to click off of this email.
But if you’re tired to living an uneventful life that you don’t even like, then this is the guide for you.
I don’t want to waste your time writing a guide that you’ll immediately forget later, I want it to give you actual results.
I do have to warn you, this guide will be quite lengthy in comparison to my usual posts, so feel free to write some things down in between or pick a time where you’re able to read it to the end.
This is to ensure that I’m providing the most detailed knowledge that I can and be completely thorough in my points.
But first,
Why should you listen to me?
I’ve went from this un-ambitious video game loving nerd to literally killing my old self through finding my purpose.
Quick Disclaimer:
This guide will be deemed as “politically incorrect” for some, but the harsh truth that people haven’t faced yet may sting more than for others.
(But seriously though, if topics like masculinity, femininity, or gender topics in general trigger you, then you’re not ready for this discussion quite yet.)
So for the sake of this post, I will be going totally unfiltered and authentic with what I’ll say. Sugarcoating can be nice on some instances, but not for something as dire as finding your life’s purpose (What gives your life meaning)
This guide is dedicated for the young men who are directionless, who don’t know what to do with their life, and who feel so nihilistic with their current reality.
Although finding your purpose is mainly a men’s issue, women can also benefit from this type of deep introspection and contemplation as well.
(Especially if you harbor more masculine qualities like work ethic, goal striving, etc.)
After my last success of my Beginner’s Mental Health Guide, I’ve figured that this guide is pointing the newsletter in the right direction, both for myself and for the young men that I’m trying to help.
This will be my second most lifechanging post so far.
Let’s begin!
Why finding your purpose as a young man should be your #1 priority:
(Chapter 1)
First, I want to explain to you the concept of “purpose”.
You might hear the term purpose a lot in like masculine culture or men’s self improvement, but it isn’t really explained clearly on what it actually is.
And beside from those specific communities, purpose isn’t preached or really talked about at all, which could be the leading cause of many young men feeling lost and directionless in their own lives.
You might have even looked at first glance and thought that purpose is this weird spirituality thing that hippies talk about, but it’s very real.
And if you’re struggling with staying motivated or having the drive to do anything, it’s almost always due to a lack of purpose in your life.
So in this section, I’m going to define to you what “purpose” actually is.
Purpose is the single core desire that drives us to make a positive contribution to the world
Or in simple terms, what gives our life meaning.
We’ve all heard of that old corny question of “What’s the meaning of life?”
Well the meaning of life is to give your life meaning, and that’s what purpose does.
Here’s an example of what my purpose is so that you can get a better picture of what it actually is.
My purpose is to help young men like myself change their lives through holistic self improvement.
That is what I’m literally doing here, on this newsletter, writing this to you because that is ultimately what gives my life meaning.
To help other young men go through the trials and tribulations that I’d went through because I understand the pain from my own experience.
I understand the pain that comes with trying to quit your modern addictions (porn, video games, junk food), to feel anxious and have shitty mental health, to feel isolated and unable to do anything productive, and to feel this sense of hopelessness and dread every day, trying to escape reality with your vices.
I’d lived that life before, (And sometimes I still do) and that’s how I’m able to channel that pain, that hardship into something productive that contributes to other people.
And even before I started this newsletter, I always had an intense, almost psychopathic desire to get other young men onto self improvement.
And sure, I could have hoarded all the information and kept this dream to myself. But I didn’t.
Why?
Because I was also experiencing extreme amounts of loneliness at the time.
I was getting onto the good self improvement habits by applying what I’ve learnt on the internet (going to the gym, eating healthier, quitting the bad habits, improving your mental health, etc.)
Gradually, my life started drastically improving. But I didn’t have anyone to celebrate this achievement with.
I hung around degenerate people, people who weren’t ambitious and didn’t want to improve their lives.
But I had this vison of the future, that I was able to create a brotherhood of high quality men who were also onto self improvement and shared the same ambitious outlook on life as well.
And that vision kept me going, even when I didn’t feel like doing the hard work, because I understood that my purpose was help other young men live more happier, fulfilling lives.
Now that I told you about my story, think about the type of energy that I would move through the world whilst I’m going through life?
Am I going to randomly slack off on some days occasionally? Yeah, of course.
Am I going to indulge in some bad habits accidentally? Yeah, of course.
But am I ever going to quit this pursuit of improving myself and helping others do the same? Hell no.
That’s why after 3 years of being onto self improvement full time, I am yet to give it up.
Sure, some things will change along the way, maybe I want to expand and start posting social media content instead, but the core desire still remains intact.
You can also think of your purpose as your sense of “duty” to yourself and to others.
And the best part about discovering your true purpose is this;
It makes effort feel good.
Making progress on your purpose is one of the most fulfilling things that you can do as a young man, and it acts like a form of hidden accountability that keeps you disciplined.
Because men with a strong sense of purpose, can’t live with themselves whenever their not actively making progress to it.
Now at first, you might be thinking “Wait that’s a bad thing, wouldn’t living life aimlessly be better since you’ll have more freedom and less stress?
Not necessarily.
You’re supposed to feel bad whenever you’re not focusing on your purpose because it challenges you to become a stronger, more capable individual.
Sure you will feel some discomfort at first, but imagine the type of person that you’ll become when you’ve aligned 100% to your purpose?
So in reality, having a purpose is actually a good thing because it keeps you off the streets, keeps you from being addicted to modern vices, and it gives you a sense of responsibility as a young man, which is deeply rewarding.
“But what if my purpose is to become a drug dealer?”, ok fine then that’s on you but the point is that having a purpose naturally guides you to become a harder worker.
So let me ask you this;
Would you want to be a person who goes through life with zero direction, living solely based on his emotions, and having this YOLO mindset of fucking around and wasting time?
Or,
Would you want to be this traditionally masculine, stoic person, who does have a strong sense of purpose, and moves through the world with this unbreakable ambition because that’s his duty to contribute to others and society?
Just think about it for a moment, and ask yourself which type of person you want to inspire to be more like.
And before we go to the next section, let me be completely honest with you.
At first, I didn’t feel like writing this guide at all.
I felt tired, lethargic, and was planning to post another email about productivity hacks this week.
But I thought to myself;
How much value are people actually getting from these types of posts?
And while it’s nice to write about those topics, it just wasn’t as fulfilling compared to if I posted a longer post that’s less mainstream and something I genuinely care about about.
Because if more guys knew about why purpose is so important and how to find your purpose, then that would already provide more value than 3 of more normal posts combined.
That’s why I’m putting so much effort into making this free guide as valuable as possible, because I know that the work I’m putting in here can genuinely change someone’s life,
Why men are becoming weak and docile:
(Chapter 2)
By now I’m sure you have a lot of limiting beliefs or doubts on if this advice actually works or if “purpose” is even real, so that’s what I’m going to break down in this section.
Why am I doing this?
Well if I’m able to break your limiting beliefs, then you’ll put more effort into taking action on this guide, so that you’ll make faster progress, and that means that you’ll trust my advice more. So it’s a win-win for the both of us.
And in this section, I’ll also cite sources from where I’m getting this information from. Mainly from the book The Way of the Superior Man by David Deida, and Hard Times Create Strong Men by Stefan Aarnio.
So if you want to learn more about purpose, leadership, and masculinity, then I highly recommend you go give those books a read.
I’m not affiliated with those books at all, but I’ll link them at the end of this guide if you’re interested.
So let’s answer the big question.
Why is it that “purpose” isn’t widely talked about in media or in the news if it’s so important?
Like think about it. If it was as important I said it was, and that having a clear purpose can guide you to having a better life, then why is it that no one talks about it?
Well the main answer is that it is only because of the the past 50 years, that traditional ideas about purpose and mission has been degraded by modern conditioning and feminization (especially the west)
Now, I know that I usually don’t talk about topics like masculinity, femininity, or social studies. (since this is more of a productivity newsletter)
But for the sake of this guide on purpose, which is actually very deep rooted in traditional masculine energy, I will be going over those topics.
Sorry for rambling a bit, but let’s continue.
I probably should have said it a lot earlier, but masculinity at it’s core is centered around your purpose (A strong desire that positively contributes to others)
Hopefully you’re now able to see the connection between the two.
Because purpose goes so much more deeper than helping others or our work, but basically the root essence the masculinity energy itself.
So to figure out why so many young men are directionless and have no real sense of ambition in life, then we must look at the rise and the fall of masculinity itself.
Reason 1: Feminization
Men are being conditioned to be more feminine, by society, modern media, and their peers.
To be more in touch with your emotions, to not possess these traditional masculine qualities like discipline, stoicism, and leadership.
Now you might think “Wait that’s crazy, their still men who work hard and provide for their families right?”
Not as much as you may think.
The modern narrative that is being pushed right now is to pursue hedonism (pleasure) over delayed gratification (Chasing discomfort), and you’ve might have experienced that same message from your peers or anyone in general.
“Don’t work so hard, it’s okay, relax. take a break”.
“Why are you so serious? You’ve only live once right?”
I’m not trying to prove this as a grand discovery or anything, since indulging in pleasure has been a thing since the beginning of mankind itself.
But let me ask you a question:
Let’s say hypothetically, that the average men 100 years would have to go to war with the average men now.
Which side do you think would win?
Obviously the men 100 years ago, of course if we didn’t take into account technological advancement or anything like that.
It would genuinely a bloodbath, a one sided war between the men of the past and the men of now.
And it’s not necessarily because they were physically stronger or more intelligent, but it was simply because they didn’t let their traditional values be degraded by propaganda that incentivized weakness.
Reason 2: Hard Times Create Strong Men
And like I mentioned earlier, there’s a lot of factors that made men weaker like feminization, the education system, the media labeling strong traditional men as toxic or misogynic.
But what I’ve learnt from the book, Hard Times Create Strong Men. The main reason why men are weak and docile is because we live in comfortable, easy times.
Let me explain.
Basically, since the start of mankind, we’ve been living in a cycle of 4 stages that have repeated throughout history.
The cycle goes like this:
Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.
Back then, men in hard times had something to fight for. They’ve fought in wars because they’ve had a masculine mission to pursue. They were ambitious, goal striving, because they knew what laid on the other side.
Their reward was a prosperous and healthy family, a beautiful wife to come home to, that was the dream life that many men were fighting for
But, we don’t have this in the modern day.
We now live in easy times. This is the safest and most comfortable period in human history, but depression and suicide rates has been increasing more than ever.
We have no great war, no real mission, and without those hard times, most men have no real purpose to live for ether.
The average modern man is extremely lonely, deprived of love or intimacy, and just indulges in simple pleasures.
We have the knowledge, the resources available to better ourselves, but why would we?
Because every technological advancement/modern addiction has been made to fulfil our natural desires.
Junk food, tinder, video games, social media, these have all been made to fulfil those needs for security, intimacy, progress, and social connection.
So connecting it back, what does it mean for the mental wellbeing of the young men in today’s world?
Reason 3: Men Aren’t Happy
Without purpose, without passion for what we do, then we are only a shell of the person that we’re truly capable of.
Like I’ve mentioned previously, we live in the safest and most comfortable times in human history. We have access to endless amounts of entertainment, junk food, video games, you name it.
And looking back at the caveman times, when we had to bash a boar’s skull in order to get food, wasn’t this the dream life that we wanted?
So even though we live comfortable lives, why is it that more and more young men are becoming depressed and suicidal?
It’s no surprise either, since it is within the last century that suicide rates are now at alarming rates.
Because really ask yourself, what causes a human being, let alone a young man to consider un-aliving themselves?
And some people might say it’s mainly due financial stress or stressful relationships, while I do agree that those are extremely catastrophic to your mental wellbeing, I also believe that a lack of purpose is one of them.
The modern man has no real reason or the will to live, because he has nothing to work hard for.
Men crave the feeling of progress, achieving big goals, and when we distract ourselves through instant pleasures and comfort, then we can’t help but feel a sense of nihilism and emptiness with our lives.
I know that this post is about purpose and not mental health, but I hope you’re able to see the clear correlation between having a strong purpose and how it affects your mental wellbeing.
And in the next section, I’ll cover how you can also do the same.
How to discover your purpose right now:
(Chapter 3)
Congratulations, you’ve made it to the third and last chapter in this beginner’s guide to purpose.
If you’re still reading this, then you’ve probably have a top 1% attention, so you should be extremely proud of yourself for making it this far.
So in this final section, I’ll be going over the practical steps that you can apply right away to discover your purpose right now.
And at the end of this guide, I’ll link a free checklist that you can use to stay accountable with the steps that you’ll be taking.
Let’s go over a quick recap of what we’ve learnt.
Purpose is built off of a strong core desire, usually to provide, to protect, or to contribute to others. But because we live in such easy times, young men have no real reason to continue working hard.
In the past 50 years, feminization and propaganda are conditioning young men to be more feminine and be less goal orientated, which is causing a lack of purpose.
Strong men create good times, and comfort is the killer of men.
Men aren’t happy because their not making progress on meaningful work.
Modern addictions are been made to distract young men from working hard and pursuing their purpose because it already fulfils most psychological needs.
You’ve learnt why purpose is so important, why many young men lack a sense of purpose and what that does to their wellbeing, and now you’ll learn how to discover your purpose right now.
But before we start, let me give you a quick disclaimer:
The actionable steps that we’ll be discussing will challenge you, it will feel uncomfortable, you might think that it’s too extreme, but it will point you in the right direction.
It will require deep contemplation, reflection, and it will most likely take you more than 1 day to fully grasp what your purpose actually is.
And if you don’t know what your purpose is, then your purpose is to find your purpose.
If you follow these steps completely for at least 3 days, then you will undoubtedly have a greater sense on what you’re purpose is . For some, it might take 4, 5, even a week to fully grasp their purpose.
( And at the end of this guide, I’ve also linked you a free checklist so that you can stay accountable with your 3 daily habits. So feel free to use it for the next 3 following days.)
I don’t want to waste anymore of your time, so let’s begin.
Actionable Step #1: Remove all distractions from your life.
For the next 3 days, turn everything off.
I’m talking video games, social media, Netflix, any type of modern day addiction that’s currently distracting you from finding your purpose.
The main reason why you’ve haven’t found your purpose is literally because you haven’t gave your brain time to think about greater things other than indulging in instant gratification.
The crackhead or the drug addict isn’t going to get introspective thoughts when he’s smoking or being high.
You need time to think. Since for the majority of your life, you’ve have dumbed yourself down to such a low level that you’re brain isn’t even able to comprehend bigger, more important decisions like “What is my purpose in life?” or “How can I positively contribute to the people that I want to help?”
Let me give you a good analogy for this scenario.
Think of your thoughts right now as a jumbled up set of earplugs, it’s all messy, you’re trying to unwrap it, but one of the wires is overlapping one another and it’s making it more tangled up.
That’s like your mind when you have all these distractions that aren’t aligned to your purpose.
You’re checking random messages, you’re family is arguing with you about random bullshit, you’re distracting yourself with social media, short form content, etc.
Think about the times before social media, before technology.
We would interact with other people, go to work/school for most of the day, and when we came back home, then that was the time for isolation and reflection.
We don’t have this in the modern day.
We’re constantly bombarded with new information all the time, on the internet, in our relationships, we give no time to think for ourselves, and we wonder why life feels so purposeless and empty.
This brings me onto the next actionable step in this guide, which is;
Actionable Step #2: Be in a period of complete isolation and fortitude.
There is a section from the book, The Way of the Superior Man by David Deida, chapter 11 which I think highlights this actionable step perfectly.
He points that spending some time away in solitude is essential if finding your purpose is your #1 priority.
This also ties into the first actionable step, since the only stimulation you should receive is from your own brain.
For the next 3 days, plan and allocate some time to spend alone by yourself, to allow time to contemplate and reflect.
It doesn’t have to be anything extreme, just make sure you have a place where others won’t disturb you during this period.
This could be your room, office, etc.
Make sure that you’re phone is off, no notifications or anything that would distract you while you’re thinking.
And when you’re alone, take out a pen and a journal, and start writing whatever thoughts come to mind.
Don’t try to force it, but literally write anything that comes up in your mind, no matter how random it might be.
It doesn’t matter how long this period of isolation takes, but you’re brain will start slowly gravitating towards a problem or issue that it thinks it’s important.
So for my example, my mind was filled with thoughts about self improvement, how could I get other people to be on the same journey as me, and the impact that I could give to others if I teach them what I’ve learnt.
And in the next section, I’ll help you break the limiting beliefs that you have once you’ve discovered your purpose.
Actionable Step #3: Ask yourself the BIG question.
Once you kind of have a somewhat clear sense of what you’re purpose might be, the next step is to ask yourself this question;
If I was already a billionaire, what type of work would I do for free?
Let’s say that if you were already fifthly rich, and you weren’t restrained by your time, location, and money, would your purpose have changed?
Because the thing is that you’re purpose is not supposed to be tied by any superficial desires that might change it.
For example, if you were journaling for a while and came to the conclusion that you’re purpose was to become a doctor and save lives, is that actually true?
Your purpose goes beyond than just a job, it is literally the one desire that you have which drives you to help other people.
So if you weren’t restrained by money, would you still be a doctor?
If the answers no, then becoming a doctor isn’t your real purpose.
For example, truthfully I’ve made approximately zero dollars so far from writing emails in my newsletter.
From the start of September 22, 2024 to now, I haven’t made a single dollar, so why do I still continue writing?
Because money wasn’t the main motivator for starting this newsletter, it was getting other young men to change their lives through self improvement like I have.
You’ve read my story at the start of this guide.
This became my purpose because I’d experience the pain of not being disciplined, having a crippling video game addiction, being extremely skinny, being conditioned to be more feminine than masculine, and hated where I was in life.
So I went onto self improvement full time in 2022 and it changed my life forever.
But I also became extremely lonely, since I had no one to relate to on this journey.
That’s how I became extremely motivated to get other guys onto self improvement through writing emails like this one so that I’ll be more likely to meet high quality friends in real life that have the same likeminded interests as me.
I’m not saying that I don’t want to make money from my work, since that will be fucking sick to have that kind of freedom as young man whilst genuinely helping other people improve.
But what I am saying is that money isn’t a constraint for me to focus on my purpose, and it shouldn’t be for you too.
Obviously there’s nuance to this, don’t randomly quit the job that’s supporting your livelihood.
But work on your purpose not for the money, but because you genuinely think it’s fulfilling and purposeful.
Before I wrap up this section, I want to give you some prompts to reflect on.
“What’s the nagging problem or issue that you want to solve in the world?”
“What’s a pain point that you’ve experienced and how might others be struggling with it too?”
And if it ticks those boxes, then you may have found your purpose.

(In this section, I’m talking about the next chapter of my purpose and the current trajectory of the newsletter. But you can skip this if you’re only here for the content)
Well, that’s the end of my second guide on the Peak Performance Newsletter.
For the past 5 days, I’ve been writing nonstop, making sure that I get this guide out in time for you, so I’d greatly appreciate it if you’ve commented or replied on what you’ve thought about this guide and what I can improve in the future.
It does take a lot of effort to get these guides out there, but the impact behind it is well worth it.
The reason why I’ve wrote this guide is not only because I think it will give immense value to people upfront, but also because of another reason due to my own values as a self improvement content writer.
I could have, and I was planning to make another ordinary post about productivity or something along those lines, but I stopped myself anyways.
The main reason was that I didn’t like the trajectory of where the newsletter was going.
I’ve created this newsletter to help young men onto self improvement, because I wanted to help others who share the same struggles.
But overtime, I saw that shift in our audience which went from specifically young men to now everyone who was interested in self improvement.
That’s not inherently wrong, but I wanted to talk about men’s issues, men’s self improvement, and not everyone’s self improvement (If you get what I mean)
And honestly, I just didn’t enjoy writing only productivity posts anymore.
That initial spark, that drive that I usually had to jump straight out of bed and start writing was disappearing, and I couldn’t understand why until I did some introspection and found out why.
You might have initially thought that I’ve made this guide for people who were directionless and didn’t know what to do with their life, since I’m ranting about masculinity and modern times and stuff.
But really, I’ve made this guide since I was also very directionless myself, at least for a while.
I know that I have the tendency to be indecisive and change my mind a lot about things, but I’m really certain that the root of my own problems came down to a lack of purpose.
I started off as a content writer who solely wanted to write for young men who were dealing with men’s issues like masculinity, addiction, procrastination, etc.
But I fell into the trap of appealing to everyone, and I lost my own way trying to get there.
I asked myself, “is this due to a lack of purpose or is it really a lack of discipline, something that I preach a lot about”.
But when I was in my 3 week hiatus, trying to figure stuff out. I didn’t even enjoy the “rest period” that I had, because my mind still fixated on writing content for the newsletter, doing some type of work, but the passion for it wasn’t there anymore.
I didn’t talk about this concept in the guide, but I’ll briefly mention it here.
There’s a concept talked about in The Way of the Superior Man which is that your body, mind, soul, will have a core purpose, a core desire within you.
But our core purpose is wrapped around in layers, or concentric circles as he called it.
This is where everything you’ve fixated on one thing for a long period of time, you’re mind will start to fixate on a completely different topic since you’ve uncovered that purpose layer.
Your purpose will relatively stay the same (As in self improvement for ex.) but it will bounce around different ideas, different aspects of that core purpose until you’ve already unraveled that layer.
And for the longest time, I was writing about productivity, how to be consistent, mindset. And while those things are important, I believe it’s also important to try to align 100% to your current purpose.
And my current purpose now or purpose layer is writing about more male oriented topics within the self improvement niche, which is about masculinity, modern addictions that are destroying young men, drive, purpose, etc.
I’m not saying it will be entirely about those topics alone, but the central theme will gravitate towards a more masculine tone rather than being exclusive to everyone.
So for example, I could still write about practical topics like discipline, habits, etc. But it will be targeted towards young men and why those topics are so essential to become a strong capable man in the modern day.
I know that there will be people who will shit on masculinity for being “toxic” or “evil” or whatever label that they want to put on men who want to better themselves.
But as you’ve seen here on this guide about purpose and becoming more masculine, there’s genuinely nothing evil or toxic about it.
In fact, it should be more praised and respected in modern times that a young man takes responsibility for his actions and lives life in this stoic, regimented way rather than conforming to his emotions.
And after reading this guide from top to bottom, I hope that you can see the positive change that masculinity can bring to the table.
In the modern day, talking about masculinity is often frowned upon, but as shown in this post, it can also be used to do a lot of good.
I’m not talking about the distorted “alpha male” masculinity that insecure people like to portray, but rather true masculinity in essence, which is discipline, stoicism, and providing value to other people.
Perhaps you’re a young man who’s reading this, and you still might feel weird about “masculinity” and you might think that it’s weird and scary to talk about this.
But maybe, just maybe, a small part of you felt this spark, this drive, when you’ve read those words. That is your restrained masculinity, that has been repressed by feminization and by modern media.
And this restrained part of your masculinity, and maybe you don’t trust 100% of what I’m saying right now, but what you do know is that,
It feels right.
Again, I don’t know all the answers, but I’ve learnt a lot from hard times create strong men and The Way of the Superior Man when it comes to masculinity and how a young man should go about life.
Sorry for going on a side tangent, this is a look onto what my mind is currently obsessing about right now, and I believe that this is uncovering a new layer of my purpose.
Hopefully you can see the positive impact that we’re having here on this newsletter, so I wish that you’ll join along for the ride, for this new “chapter” of my purpose I would say.
But if not, that’s alright too. You’re always free to unsubscribe from this newsletter if it doesn’t align with your values anymore.
Just wanted to give you a heads up on what direction I want this newsletter to go towards in the future.
Before you go, I do have one more request for you.
If this free guide has genuinely helped you, either now or in the following 3 days when you’ve applied those actionable steps, then I would encourage you to please share it to someone who could also benefit from this type of educational content as well.
If more people saw these guides, then it would give me a lot of fulfillment as a writer to see that my work has positively impacted people’s lives.
I did leave some stuff out for the sake of simplicity, since this is a beginner’s guide, but I might discuss more of those advanced topics in a future post.
I hope to write more of these long, in depth guides in the future.
Until then, I’ll see you in the next post. (My brain is currently fried)
