Why is it so difficult to really experience joy?

Because we're always afraid it's going to end.

That something bad is going to happen to "make up for" the joy we're feeling.

That this good feeling will give way to those bad feelings.

So we walk around in a state of "foreboding joy," which means we never truly embrace joy when it shows up.

It's like giving a good friend a nod instead of a hug.

When we go through life suppressing the emotions we don't want to feel...

We reduce our capacity to experience the emotions we DO want to feel.

Read that again.

When I work with men who feel disoriented or disinterested in their lives, it's usually because they've lost focus on what's important to them.

They're disoriented because they've lost their direction, and instead focused on Protecting & Providing for everyone else. And they're disinterested because they feel overwhelmed by their responsibilities.

They find themselves on a daily Treadmill of work and family duties, with no end in sight.

What they really want is to be on a Trail that leads to somewhere interesting, so they know their life has meaning beyond putting food on the table.

If you're feeling like life is more of an obstacle course than a meaningful adventure, it doesn't have to be that way. All you need is a few key skills to help you navigate the journey.

Jump on my free workshop called "Treadmill to Trail: 5 Essential Survival Skills for Men in Modern Times."

You'll come away with clarity on where you are and where you want to be. I'll help you develop a clear vision of what future that looks like. And you'll connect with a group of like-minded men who get it.

P.S. There's no sales pitch here. If your "old way" of doing things isn't getting you where you want to go, why not try a different path? Register today so you don't miss out.

I was 29 years old when I walked into my first yoga class, and I simultaneously had two different feelings:

1) "You want me to do what with my leg?? My leg doesn't do that."

AND

2) "I think I want to be a yoga teacher."

My ego was trying to protect me by telling me not to try something new (because I might look stupid). And my expansive spirit, my higher self, was telling me I had found my calling.

I stepped away from yoga for a bunch of years, telling myself that I didn't have the time or the money. I got busy being Protector & Provider for my family.

Slowly, I lost my direction.

And when my marriage fell apart a few years ago, I returned to the yoga studio. It became my therapy, my gym, my church, and my community. And it transformed me.

This month, 18 years after that first class, I began a 200-hour course to become a certified yoga teacher. It's challenging me to stretch myself, to evolve, and to reach for a higher version of myself.

🎯 I'm excited to share this ancient wisdom through my coaching and teaching
🎯 I'm excited to finally tick this thing off my bucket list.
🎯 Most of all, I'm excited to fulfill a promise I made to myself many years ago.

What's on your bucket list... and what are you waiting for?

What's the difference between happiness and joy?

It's Gratitude.

Happiness says, "Things are pretty great right now."

Joy says, "I'm so effing grateful to be here in this moment right now."

Practice gratitude. Find joy.

The men I work with are all trying to solve basically the same problem. And it's a big one.

I call it the "Now What?" Problem, and it shows up in one of two ways:

1) Things are "all good" in work and life, and the question is, "Now what? Is this all there is to my life? Do I just keep doing this until I retire?"

OR

2) Something big needs fixing (usually, it's a relationship), and the question is, "Now what? Everything was going so well until this happened, and I don't know how to get past it."

Solving either problem comes down to the same thing: building a few essential skills to help you navigate work and life in these modern times.

If you're having a "Now what?" moment in your life, you're in good company. And I can help.

Join me and some other like-minded men on a free workshop called "Treadmill to Trail" and you'll learn the 5 Essential Survival Skills for Men in Modern Times.

I guarantee you'll come away with some new ways of looking at things in your life. If that's worth an hour of your time, then click the link in the top comment to register.
