Personal Development For Young Men

The purpose of this website is to stop you becoming a boy in a man's body and with personal development teach you to become a badass young man.

Many young males grow into a man physically but retain a juvenile attitude well into their adult years. They lack genuine manliness.

This is a generational problem and it needs to be addressed because it is crippling society and is stopping you living life to the full.

Some of the symptoms are:

These issues are merely obstacles that can be overcome when you break through to a new level of personal development, badass manliness and start taking charge of your life. Change can happen and it boils down to these three rules:

  1. It's not your fault you lack manliness, it's social conditioning.
  2. Anybody can become more of a man if they want to.
  3. You don't get more masculine by changing your behavior, you get it by changing your attitude.

Rule #1 - It's Not Your Fault

It's not your fault that you are having issues. So don't blame yourself. We live in a society that emasculates men. Social conditioning messes with our biology.

10,000 years ago you would kill a lion at 14 years old and you were a man. Now it's not uncommon for a "man" in his mid twenties to still be living with his mother.

No one is teaching us how to be men anymore. No one is teaching us the values and responsibilities we need to grow nuts and a hairy chest and take true responsibility. Manliness has gone out of fashion and metrosexuality has taken over.

In our generation our male role models have been poor or absent and we have been mollycoddled by a feminized society. As Tyler Durden said in Fight Club, "We are a generation of men raised by women."

Once you stop blaming yourself for your weaknesses it is easier to change and become the man you want to be.

Having said that, by not blaming yourself it doesn't mean you can point the finger at society and do nothing but sit back and complain. You have to deal with the world you live in and the only one who can change your life is you. Let go of the blame but take charge of your own future, you must become responsible for your life.

Rule #2 - Anybody Can Become More Of A Man

You don't need any special qualities to become more masculine. If you want to become more of a man you can. All that you need is the desire, the passion and the will to follow it through. There may be a bit of suffering and pain. Personal development is something that takes hard work. The reason most people struggle is that they lack committment. But if you can battle through you will reap the rewards.

Rule #3 - You Don't Get More Masculine By Changing Your Behavior

Most people think that in order to become more masculine you need to act differently. This is a misconception. Manliness is not behavior, it is a mindset.

You become more masculine by changing the way you think - by thinking like a man. When you change the way you think you will, by default, change the way you act. But this is a by-product of the change in attitude.

Don't target the behavior because you will only feel like you are spinning your wheels. Target the attitude, change the mindset and the actions and behavior will take care of itself.
