Hi everyone I'm a 38 year old man who are battling with procrastination my whole life when I start something it always lasts 5 days.Please help me to get out of this .

In studying successful people we realize that they have this uncanny ability to make quick decisions and follow through. I found that interesting as I am always prone to viewing the pros and cons behind most decisions especially if I consider it a big decision. Yet, successful people decide the understanding that if they have chosen the wrong path they can discover it quicker and correct course. Their reasoning for that is an object in motion is easier to redirect than trying to get a stagnant object to move. So, the big question is how effective are you at making decisions? In our journey to becoming Resolute Men I believe this to be a crucial attribute to incorporate. What are your thoughts?

As men, we don't realise how powerfully equipped we are to deal with our emotions. Emotions are simply energy in motion. When we change the state of our motion we change the state of our emotion. We do though fear bringing up these emotions as we fear being seen as weak or incapable. That is a fallacy of a bygone era. The age of the macho man is dying and we need to embrace the age of the Resolute Man. In his book; Man's Search for Meaning; the late Viktor Fankl gave us a powerful truth about societal constraints and our thinking potential. Even though his family was murdered and he was locked up in concentration camps with atrocious conditions he was able to escape the turmoil by holding onto the belief of freedom in his mind. That is the one place where environmental factors have no say unless we permit them to have a say. I recently found myself in a battle with depression and it was personal. I saw my ex-wife with her new boyfriend and this unsettled me deeply. We have been separated for 7 years and officially divorced for 4 of those 7 years. So, why did seeing her with someone else unsettle me? I sat down and unpacked that thought by journaling my feelings and meditating in the presence of God. The realistion that hit me was that it hurt because I had not been able to move on. I have not found someone new in my life so how could she? By obtaining clarity about why I felt the way I did I could unpack those feelings and decide constructively if it was worth my holding onto them. That is the message that I hope to convey to you. Depression, anxiety, fear, frustration, etc. are not simply negative emotions to keep within or ignore. Through these feelings your body conveys that something is out of balance and needs addressing. When you unpack those emotions constructively you subconsciously permit yourself to grow. Not all men are willing to grow and some need help in this area of unpacking emotions. That is why I established this group to build context around the content of being a Resolute Man through topical discussions.

I invite you to introduce yourself and share what brought you to the group. This group aims to start conversations getting us out of our heads. It's not about being experts on the topics we discuss, but being open to learning and sharing as we navigate the day-to-day challenges in a world always telling us who we should be. Remember to respect the views of others. If we had life figured out our lives would be perfect. So, give as much as you get and respect every view in the group.
