Men & Pain

It might sound controversial, but I do believe men need pain in their lives.

When life is too pleasant, too easy, they aren’t men anymore. They become weak.

I consider weak men those who need a gun or smack their partners to feel masculine.

So, as a man, you may consider bringing a certain level of pain into your life.

I know it sounds like you should be a masochistic or something, but what I mean is not that you should torture yourself.

You should bring some physical/mental pain about something that you don’t want to do.

E.g., having a cold shower or doing something uncomfortable.

Why?

Because that’s how you build discipline.

That’s how you stay focused.

That’s how you toughen up.

And that’s what all matters.

So when shit will hit the ceiling (and it will), you know how to react.

You’re prepared. Because you have been training. And you don’t freak out.

Include discomfort in your routine.

Push your boundaries.

You will be all right.
