My name is Mark Drezga and along with fellow GG2GM coach, Garrett Prettyman; we developed the Vital Formula To Masculine Confidence
Course to help men become powerful leaders in all aspects of their lives.
I'm going to keep this newsletter short and to the point. No fluff, just the good stuff.
You know what
is the most powerful lesson I have ever learned?
It's so simple that for a long time I didn't believe that it could be true, but it is and time and time again life has proven it to me.
It's something that when I first got it, I tried in vain to get
everyone I knew to see the magic in what had become apparent to me.
You want to know what it is?
"Don't take your thinking seriously".
Yep, that's it.
Doesn't sound profound, does it? But I assure you it is.
Don't.
Take.
Your.
Thinking.
Seriously.
What It's Like Being On The Emotional Rollercoaster
How can not taking your thinking seriously possibly help when your wife is leaving you?
When you
might lose half your stuff?
When you may only see your children half the time?
These are all REAL things that are happening to you now, aren't they?
Yep, you bet they are real and they also have real-world consequences.
What isn't real are the stories that you have about what all of those things MEAN about you.
You are not your thoughts.
You are the one having them.
When you treat your thoughts as noise and not as instructions, life becomes clear very quickly.
Suddenly you are calm while others are chaotic.
You're not upset when someone says something nasty to you.
You don't need anyone to look after you and you are
free to be yourself without any concerns as to other's opinions about you.
It's incredibly freeing.
You become unstoppable because it will allow you to operate differently and with more clarity and purpose then you ever have before.
The Emotional Rollercoaster Is Really Just A THINKING Issue
Your thoughts are always changing, which makes them inconsistent and unpredictable.
Would you follow someone that is inconsistent and
unpredictable?
You can operate from something that isn't prone to changing regularly.
Something that remains steady even when life gets hectic.
Something that you can turn to, even when all the feelings inside you are telling you to do something stupid.
How exactly?
By connecting to something that is consistent and reliable that helps you
decide what actions to take and when.
Your values.
Your values are your directions and the only thing you should use to determine your actions.
Not your constantly changing emotions or thoughts.
How many times have wanted to do something rash and then after a few hours (once you've calmed down), you count your lucky stars that you didn't act on the impulse?
Many I'm sure.
Just like me.
Just like everybody.
Operating from something that isn't easily effected by things outside of you is the path to clarity.
The challenge is remaining connected to your values, even when everything else inside AND outside of you is trying to convince you otherwise.
Knowing Your Values Is Non-Negotiable To Get Off The Emotional Rollercoaster
How do you know what your values are?
The very first thing Garrett and I are going to do is help you uncover exactly what YOUR values are.
Not your parents values.
Not the values that you think your wife finds attractive.
YOUR OWN VALUES.
This can be difficult at first.
Most men have never actually sat down and tried to define their own values.
Hell, I couldn't even
answer the question when it was first posed to me!
If you don’t put in the time and effort to define your values, then they have been chosen for you by others.
That’s kind of scary don't you think?
Having things that you believe to be important chosen by other people!
When I say it like that, it hits different I bet.
Your values are the foundations
of every action that you take.
Without values, you will inevitably use your feelings to make decisions.
This is known as BEING REACTIVE.
This is NOT operating from your initiative.
This is operating from external stimulus and waiting for others to take action so you can then decide what to do.
This is being a FOLLOWER.
Your ability to have feelings and sensations in your body without needing to change them is at the root of:
- Emotional Safety
- Managing challenging
emotions
- Having better sex (for longer as well!)
- Creating connection with everyone that you meet
Women don’t want a man who is controlled by his feelings nor do
they want a man that doesn’t have any either.
What they want, is a man that can experience the full range of emotions that humans are capable of, without being at the mercy of them.
That is a powerful man.
That is a man that can handle her AND her emotions!
That is the man that gets to enjoy the slinky, fun and sexual side of your woman.
The side that can
only come out when she feels safe enough to share ALL of herself.
If you are easily triggered, offended or disgusted by her emotions, you will undoubtedly try to change them and that's basically the same as rejecting who she is as a person.
Garrett and I know the challenges you face precisely because we have been through the exact same things!
We've had the:
- Self-Doubt
- Confusion
- Embarrassment
- Shame
But we also know that on the other side of your uncomfortable feelings are everything that you have ever wanted.
There is a calm, kind, caring and powerful man lying wait inside you.
He just needs to be let out from the cage of limiting-beliefs and fear that has been built up over the years.
