<p>Many men nowadays are turning away from masculinity and towards feminism  wearing skinny jeans and eyeliner and mixing the sexes. It&#8217;s all very well to be  more open and willing to experiment. But manliness has been taken out our  society with Xbox obsessed males who feel lost in the modern world.</p>
<p>BE YOUR OWN MAN</p>
<p>You are responsible for your actions and thoughts. Never follow others  because their ideas seem popular, only follow them if your instinct tells you  that they are right.</p>
<p>KNOW THE BALANCE BETWEEN HEART AND MIND</p>
<p>Whenever you make and decision in your life, you will be pulled by your heart  and mind in separate directions. Listen to both of these and what they are  telling you. Your mind tends to tell you what is better for you, whilst the  heart tells you what is better in the grand scheme of things.</p>
<p>THE ONLY DEATH IS A LIFE UNLIVED</p>
<p>Live your life the way you would if you had total freedom, which of course  you do. Smash through and conquest your fears. Your ultimate goal is to live a  life in which you make a difference.</p>
<p>DON&#8217;T BECOME SELFISH</p>
<p>A real man knows that he is a cog in the part of bigger things, spiritual  beliefs aside. Becoming selfish makes you enjoy life less and others will feel  your negative energy. Helping others is a great thing. There&#8217;s nothing better  than someone saying to you &#8220;You&#8217;ve changed my life, I can&#8217;t thank you enough&#8221;.  I&#8217;m getting goosebumps just sat here now thinking about it.</p>
<p>GOT GOALS THAT YOU HAVEN&#8217;T STARTED TOWARDS YET?</p>
<p>WHY!?!? All the great men of history have pasts chequered with failure.  Thomas Edison failed 1000 times before creating the lightbulb. Winston Churchill  and Abraham Lincoln both has Depression in their early lives but that didn&#8217;t  stop them becoming as widely praised as they became. Sometimes the most  challenged people become the most successful. What I&#8217;m trying to say is, you  never know what is going to happen. All you can do is put in your maximum effort  consistently. Don&#8217;t waste your time on thoughts of how you can&#8217;t do something  and either find the way or make it.</p>
<p>WHAT SETS APART THE MEN FROM THE BOYS</p>
<p>Setting goals and consistently achieving them. All great people from history  knew what they wanted (B) and where they are now (A) and closed the gap between  A and B. It sounds simple but this is the only way it can be done. Think about  the person you most admire? Do you really think that person that you admire had  something superhuman about them? That the rules were different for them somehow?  No, they knew how to effectively set goals. Too simple, right? yeah it is!  That&#8217;s why its said by thousands of successful people over the years.</p></div>
