    When I joined the military, I was astounded at the number of guys that didn’t know how to do anything. They couldn’t work with tools, didn’t know anything about cars, couldn’t cook, clean, balance a checkbook the list goes on. I had to ask one of them why they didn’t know how to do anything. The answer I got was: “I didn’t have anyone to teach me.” So, I think a big part of being a good man, is teaching young men how to do stuff and how to live and work in society.

    I’m a young black male from the south. That’s relevant only because I’ve grown up in a very different generation, with very different experiences and exposures, with likely very different politics from Dwayne. Yet I find so much incredible benefit in listening to him teach me about what really matters beneath all those superficial layers & labels we use to divide ourselves in society, and use his advice to work on becoming the man I hope to be. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my few years, it’s that when a man of sage wisdom is willing to impart it …You shut up. Listen carefully. Say thank you. Then go do it. Thank you, sir.

    the way i look at it most people today aren't good at all. its kinda like all you wouldn't think of an older person as being stupid for not knowing how to use an iPhone. it was never taught to them they didnt grow up with it and it came around when they were past their prime. you don't consider a young person smart for knowing how to use iPhone because they grew up with it its all they know. same with morals, they were taught this ultra moralistic view of the world and they've never known anything else. they assume they are good people because they are just inherently good, the reality is they would be whoever they were raised to be, if they were born in Nazi Germany they most likely woulda been a Nazi. if born in the American south at the right time most of them wouldn't have thought twice about owning slaves. this is true of almost every person, but it seems so many people refuse to accept this reality. this is why stuff like moral philosophy or religion or spiritualism or family values or just anything that grounds you morally is so essential, without it we can stray so far from being anything resembling "good".

I struggle with remembering numbers - which is kinda key to the whole thing... So I started imagining those folks on the road screaming at me while I try to do math.

My father was there until the age of 7 and I feel as though I have never really learned how to act like a man with his absence. I figured out a little bit about being a proper kind of person, but not a proper kind of man.

    Asking someone "is there anything I can do to help" is really important. People love to ask "What's wrong" if you see someone blue, but the issue is, chances are that person has no clue what's wrong and you just made everything worse. Just asking if there's anything they need help with or anything they'd like to talk about is important. We need to look after each other, especially our young men.

He tells them that you must Communicate to each other. Find you a woman who thinks like you think. Discuss everything always. Hubby and I married after dating for only 6 weeks, and no we didn't know each other before that either, we did live in the same small community but didn't know each other. In that 6 weeks we talked about what our marriage was going to be like, I wasn't going to volunteer each other to do things, for each others parent. That causes a lot of discourse. But the best thing you can do in any relationship, talk about what you expect, and what you want from that relationship. TALK to that person who you are interested in, watch how she acts and reacts to life in general. Good Luck Sir!!!! I pray you find someone who will be a good fit for you, as we, hubby and I did.

    Cody Way: After 48 years of marriage to one woman(by the grace of God), I would say, look for and marry as smart & wise a woman as you can find who will put up with you. To that end, make yourself as tolerable as you possibly can. And overall, get to know God. No matter what you are able to accomplish by your sheer will, it will amount to nothing in the end if you reject Him. Make no mistake, the war on common sense and decency that is going on today is directed at the person of God & His image reflected in His creation, particularly mankind. Most of those involved in the attack against God don't understand that's what they're doing the unseen forces driving them surely do!

    you're unfamiliar with the modern problems young men have to deal with. you're telling them to look for a frugal woman meanwhile most of the women their age are busy taking pictures of their ass to post on instagram and sleeping with strangers from tinder. how are they going to limit their debt when it costs 160k to for a 4 year degree that's required by most adult jobs. and you need a 30 year mortgage for an average house. sorry pops it's a different world than the one you grew up in.

    Im going to be 21 in one month and i needed to hear this man. Be calm and cut out the chaos especially music and energy drinks. im about to get my liscense and move into my own place and i suffer from mild panick attacks. Ive only just found your channel today and im going to throw a sub. Thanks for the advice. My dad has been gone for almost seven years now he gave up on me and my sister for heroin and crime. He will be fifty in a couple years and like you mentioned he has no right to my family being that he does not give any purpose to me or my sisters life. Ive never looked at it like that. So again thanks for the advice man. It means a lot.

    Generally speaking, as a man about your age, who enjoys his 5 children and 8 grandchildren, an occasional cigar, and the outdoors, I would like to say thank you. Your philosophy is much like mine and I enjoy hearing you talk about things that matter in addition to the interest your viewers have in wrangling. As for showing Momma on the channel, talk about the parenting philosophy that guided you as you raised your children and how you all interact with your adult children. Also, have a conversation about how you make your marriage successful.

    New subscriber. Good job sir. Im hooked on your content. Very Intriguing. I lost my dad in 2015 but I see him much of him in you. I guess that's why I gravitated to channel after stumbling upon one of your cigar videos. The part when you said " your children weren't raised by the you that is today" it hit me hard cause I look back and think how my dad was in his younger days and what he taught me then as far as working with my hands, he was a carpenter and dabbled in everything. He could literally build a house from the foundation up, dig the sewage trenches, run the plumbing line, pour the foundation slab, frame it, roof it, dry wall, he could work on cars etc. etc. He was a little aggressive and hot headed in his youth but as he got older I seen him grow spiritually and became more calm and collected and he was still teaching me things in a different way that I use now as a father. I was lucky to have had him as my dad and raise me to a man as I'm sure your children are lucky to have you and still have you. Salute

    If you dont mind, I'd like to share the Gospel with you since I love for you to make it to the kingdom of heaven. You seem like a lovely person and I just love to share it with you. God created the universe and earth in his divine image along with that he created man and women. Adam and Eve who we're were the first people to live along side him in harmony. But when man was tempted and ate of the fruit of God and evil we lost everything and sin came into the world through them. God seeing man fall into such despair and destruction through our sins, later on made Jesus christ in order to teach us his ways in order to reach his kingdom. Jesus died the death we all deserved but he was the sacrifice that played a role in order to have all our sins forgiven by God and no longer have the need to sacrifice animal's in that place. Jesus laid dead for 3 days and rose up in the 3rd day by the spirit of God proving that the sacrifice was accepted. If we choose to believe and accept jesus christ as your lord and savior, your sins will be forgiven and you will rejoice in paradise along side him in heaven.

Jordan and Jocko helped me get to this point, now I've just discovered you and you describe your earlier version of yourself. I used to be a coward and a door mat. And I counted my good deeds and said they were higher than my misdeeds and mistakes. After years of struggle and personal emergencies, I've learned the value of the things you say in your videos.

    May I recommend that you consider letting go of the Smartphone and return to using a flip phone. Declare yourself on a Fast of the news. Stop looking at the news for 30 days. Then on day 31 check in with yourself and ask yourself how your really feeling. My hope and belief(if you've stayed away from the news) is that you'll feel a good deal calmer. In today's world with a 24/7 news cycle we have to make more conscious choices about how much "bad news" we let into our lives. My definition of Bad News= News about situations you can't do anything about.

That's it. That's all you need to do. Anyone telling you that you should be doing this or that by this age, or certain material things to acquire "to be successful" is selling something. Explore, discover, create, help along the way. The rest will take care of itself.
