There is no “mid-life crisis” for men…generally speaking.
This “mid-life crisis” for men is, is just a lack of focus and purpose. When men lose their purpose, they also lose our focus. When they lose their focus they feel lost. And many men attempt to find themselves in unproductive behaviors.
My main point of these posts and my private intensive, The Warriors Quest, is to help men realize that they do have a mission and purpose in life. And once they find it they can live a life of power, purpose, passion and perseverance!
My hope is that through these series of posts and “The Warriors Quest”, I will help men who, admittedly or not, are experiencing a mid-life emptiness and guide them back to manhood and step into their masculinity…without becoming a jerk.
We’ve already covered the mental, physical and emotional habits of a highly focused purpose driven man. We’ll now look at the final habit, spiritual:
Spiritual Habits
This is the fusion of all the other habits that provide a life purpose filled with meaning and fulltime and is unique to each individual. The spiritual habits produce a life with power, purpose, passion and perseverance
Spiritual Focus:
Purpose Focused Man
- Brings into focus their habits of body, mind and emotion under their Spiritual umbrella for examination
- Knows their top 10 values and live the top 5 daily and the others at least weekly
- Know their purpose, vision and mission in life
- Reflect on who they have to become in order to live their vision and mission and make any adjustments
- Examines their values, beliefs, capabilities, behaviors and environment from a Higher perspective
A man with a purpose focused life well has a purpose. He knows everything that goes into that purpose, His beliefs, values, behaviors, capabilities and environmental.
A man actively participating in his purpose driven life often takes time to contemplate who he has become because of his journey.
He has developed a Code of Honor to live by.
No Life Purpose, Unfocused Man
- Don’t have time for in-depth reflection
- Take live day by day with no sense of purpose
- Can’t tell you their top values and if they can, they change regularly depending on their mood
- Forced into in-depth reflection via a death of someone close
A man without a purpose driven life is a “lost soul.” He doesn’t know his top values and beliefs and doesn’t see how it is important.
A man not actively engaged in a purpose focused life thinks he doesn’t have time for contemplation; he’s too busy with watching TV or dulling the pain of an unfulfilled life.
He has no Code of Honor to live by, and if he did it would “All for me.”
