Do you ever get down in the dumps for no apparent reason?
Do sucky days sneak up on you and challenge your mojo?
Do you sometimes think you're
making no headway at work or in your relationship and feel like you're banging your head against a wall?
Me too. Yesterday was one of those days. Welcome to the club, brother.
Want to know how I got out of the dumps so fast and back on track?
This is going to scare you so get ready. Most guys have trouble with this.
I talked about it with other men I trust.
Freaky, right? I know. But it works wonders.
I confided
with a close friend and even two my cyber-brothers. And guess what they did?
They just listened. They told me to hang in there and then said something funny. And then they reminded me to look back a few months to see that I haven't been standing still.
Damn. I feel better today. And I'm having lunch with a buddy on Friday.
Then I emailed a couple of guys I was thinking about. Just checked in because they were on my mind. It turns out they had some stuff they wanted
to talk about but hadn't reached out yet to anyone.
And so the circle goes.
You allow people into your life to support you while you return the favor as often as possible. GIVING
is another simple cure for sucky days.
Sounds simple but it is painfully absent in most men's lives.
So what are you
going to do with this information? Reach out to a brother you've been thinking about. Just listen. Ask for advice or perspective on something that's bugging you.
There's something about this stuff of being open, communicating and supporting other men that nobody has told you.
This is incredibly macho stuff. This is how MEN take charge of their moods and their challenges. This how MEN treat other men.
This also adds an element
of accountability. It helps you follow through, be consistent and take care of your sh*t.
Let me help you with that today. Pick ONE guy you care about and send him this email:
"Hey bud. Thought of you today and just wanted to check in with you. How are things going for you? Let's meet for lunch next week if you've got time. How's Friday sound?"
Once you send that email, send ME an email telling me you did it. Or tell me how
lunch went and how it helped you or your buddy. If I don't hear from you, I'll assume you didn't do it.
Have a great day, brother.

Set aside at least one hour to have a conversation that will change your day from a sucky one to a high mojo day. Admit it. You need one of
those, don't you?
