Here's the definition of a weirdo.
weirdo
wîr′dō
noun
- A strange or eccentric person.
I'm a bit of a weirdo. And if you're reading this email, you're probably a bit weird too.
Why?
Because dudes who read relationship emails and watch videos created by some old dude sitting in a shed on a mountain with dog are...let's be
honest...just a little odd.
But that's odd in a really cool way, I think.
I've spent a large part of my life trying to impress myself and others by being
what I thought THEY needed to see to think of me as "cool".
Get good grades, excel in sports, work on cars, date a pretty girl and get a high paying job...then you'll be a REAL MAN!
Yeah...no. It didn't work like that.
While I did develop a ton of confidence in what I knew and what I could do, it didn't move the needle of the deeper confidence that would ultimately change my life.
I was only confident in my learned competence. I was only confident in what people could see on the outside.
The hidden truth was, I was scrambling on the inside trying to not let people see another part of me.
It's the part that "men aren't supposed to be".
I liked THINGS a lot. Cars, sports, tools and anything I could hold in my hands.
But my hidden secret was that I had an undeniable curiosity about people, relationships, spirituality and SEX. (yeah, that last one was like kryptonite)
But, you know what's really WEIRD about me?
First, I made the video below to announce to 30,000 subscribers that I'M WEIRD.
Second, I discovered that I'm also weird because I simply do not give two shits about who watches this video or what they think of me. I have no shame...and neither should you.
And that's the part that makes you and me WEIRD in a really cool way.
Here's me coming out of the "shame closet".
