What does it mean to be a modern man? Using a very weird childhood cartoon as a launch-point, we explore the idea of personal power.
This episode’s Action Points:
The “Shame List” — Make a list of everything you are holding inside you that you are ashamed of. Own it, so it’s not hiding from you anymore. Then burn it.
Expose Yourself — Next time you feel vulnerable or find yourself confronting one of your faults, try admitting it to those around you. It takes courage, but helps remove self-hiding tendencies.
Rite(s) of Passage — Create a large or small rite of passage for yourself. It might be a camping overnight, a day of meditation, or just calling someone you know you should call. These rites build rooted strength.
Create a “Rooted Strength” Tribe — Share the concept of rooted strength, and then create a tribe of folks who can help each other develop it!
