Order of Man - 7 Strategies for Becoming a Better Father ｜ FRIDAY FIELD NOTES

00:00:00.000 And she broke a world record for being the fastest in that event for a blind woman. 0.99

00:00:06.520 Because she had somebody pacing for her.

00:00:09.660 She had that man pacing for her.

00:00:12.220 You are that man.

00:00:14.040 And I might get a little emotional as I say this, but you are the pacer.

00:00:18.060 You're that pace car, or you're that person running next to that woman to break a world record.

00:00:22.780 That's your job, guys.

00:00:25.060 And it's a good job.

00:00:26.680 It's a righteous, it's a virtuous job.

00:00:30.760 It's needed more than you might imagine.

00:00:35.760 Guys, there's a man somewhere in your family tree who decided what kind of father that you'd have to either overcome or live up to.

00:00:47.160 And right now, today, you are, if you're a father, that man for somebody else.

00:00:52.440 you know it's it's it's the boy who watches how you handle a flat tire or or your daughter and

00:01:00.200 she might be quietly deciding what is what what a man is allowed to make her feel uh and and you

00:01:09.600 don't get to opt out of that you only get to decide whether you're doing well or you're doing

00:01:15.300 it by default obviously father's day is coming up this weekend and i want to do something more

00:01:21.140 useful than just hand you a card, give you a pat on the back, give you an ugly tie or some socks

00:01:27.760 or whatever it is. Because the reality is, is that fatherhood isn't just, it's not just a hobby

00:01:36.520 that you're good or bad at. It's, I believe, the single most consequential leadership role

00:01:43.420 that most men will ever hold. And the reality also is that most men just, we don't train for

00:01:52.420 it. You know, look at, look at the data. It's, it's staggering and it stops just being some 0.97

00:01:57.900 sort of sentimental feel good idea. Kids risk of kids who are raised without an engaged father

00:02:05.200 are way more likely to end up in poverty, way more likely to drop out of school, uh, to land

00:02:11.280 themselves in prison, to struggle even with their own relationships decades later. And we have spent

00:02:19.360 a generation, probably even more than that, pretending that fathers are just optional. And

00:02:26.780 society tells you that you're not important. You hear it all the time with the feminist movement, 1.00

00:02:32.080 we don't need no man. Well, that's nice, but your kids do. They do. They need you. 1.00

00:02:39.140 it's it's it's that having a father around is is optional that it's a nice bonus that it's a good

00:02:48.360 second income stream and it's not just that because the absence of a father who's present

00:02:55.560 and engaged and principled leaves a hole and then society quite literally spends billions and

00:03:04.880 billions of dollars trying to fill with programs and prisons and pharmaceutical companies and drugs

00:03:12.200 and all these other things. And here's the point that I think I hope really lands for you

00:03:19.520 is that good fathers, we don't just prevent disaster. It's not a fail-safe program.

00:03:27.000 Good men, we produce something. A man that fathers well is quite literally forging

00:03:34.800 the next set of men and women who will carry our standards that we pass into them in a world

00:03:43.180 that's really running low on standards and principles. And that's not just some side quest

00:03:49.520 or side program or nice to have. That's your mission. That is quite literally the mission of

00:03:55.460 men. So I want to get really practical with you today. Seven ways to be a better father. Not

00:04:01.720 theory, not platitudes, not congratulatory celebration for the things you are not doing,

00:04:09.100 but the things that you can actually do this weekend. Seven things. Number one, men, we have

00:04:16.000 to be present, not just around. Presence, not proximity, I would say. Your kids don't need

00:04:24.140 simply more hours from you. They need your attention. And there's a difference between a

00:04:29.580 man who's in the house just as a, as a fixture or, or as, as sentient as the lamp or the couch

00:04:38.740 that people sit on and a man who's actually with his family. Okay. You can sit on the same couch

00:04:45.900 with your son for three hours and give him nothing because your eyes are on this little,

00:04:51.700 this little device or your mind is on what's happening Monday at the meeting. But presence

00:04:59.620 is a decision that you make with your attention. And it's not just your calendar. It's your

00:05:04.000 attention. When you're with them, be with them. Put the phone away. Put it in another room.

00:05:10.960 Look your children in the eye. Kids are really good at

00:05:15.900 seeking out BS. They know the difference between a dad who's listening and a dad who's

00:05:25.040 just like waiting for them to finish or them to finish so he can get back to whatever he was doing.

00:05:32.940 Give them the real deal. It really costs you nothing but a little bit of time, attention,

00:05:38.260 focus. And it's really, from where I stand, it's the most valuable currency you have.

00:05:44.000 number two model the man that you want them to become your kids are not going to become who you

00:05:52.100 tell them to be and i get this because it's hard it's way harder to actually live up to your own

00:05:57.040 ideals than it is just to flap your gums they will become largely who you are you know you can

00:06:05.180 lecture your son and your daughter about integrity for an hour or longer and then do all of it the

00:06:11.280 moment that he watches you take a shortcut or cut a corner when you think nobody's looking.

00:06:17.640 You can tell your daughter she deserves a guy who treats her with respect and then

00:06:22.640 ingrained into her something entirely different by how you talk with her mom.

00:06:30.160 This is the heaviest one. So we really need to sit with this. Your behavior is their curriculum.

00:06:37.620 and we often talk about how the public school system is failing our kids are we are we failing

00:06:44.600 our children what is our discipline or lack thereof teach them or our temper or how we handle

00:06:50.700 a setback or whether or not we keep our word that's the curriculum that's the lesson plan

00:06:56.140 and and the class unlike public school where it's you know eight to three or eight to four

00:07:01.920 is always, always in session when it comes to you.

00:07:06.280 And there is some good news here.

00:07:08.360 You don't have to be perfect,

00:07:09.540 but you do have to be honest and you have to be trying

00:07:12.840 and you have to be building and growing

00:07:15.520 and developing and getting better.

00:07:18.360 I found that in my own children's lives,

00:07:21.940 when I can own my mistakes in front of my kids,

00:07:25.840 whether that's telling them,

00:07:27.020 hey, I messed up with this scenario

00:07:28.480 or hey, I'm sorry for the way that I treated you,

00:07:31.920 that teaches them something way more powerful than a father who just pretends that he doesn't

00:07:39.360 make any mistakes at all. So be the kind of man that you want your sons to be and be the kind of

00:07:47.020 man that you wish your daughter will be with. That is the most important thing you can do.

00:07:52.180 All right, number three, you have to be able to administer discipline without losing the

00:07:59.060 relationship. And this one's hard. This one's hard for me because every time my kids aren't

00:08:04.880 disciplined or push back on something that I suggest or, or demand, I feel a loss of respect

00:08:14.020 from them. So it's really difficult for me. And this is one I've had to work on quite a bit

00:08:17.480 personally. And I think a lot of men get this one backwards in one of two ways. Some go just

00:08:25.060 completely soft right it's that it's that soft parenting they want to be their their kids's

00:08:32.000 best friend so they never hold a line and they raise a kid with no spine and no respect for

00:08:39.520 boundaries maybe they've been given everything and so they don't know what it's like to be told

00:08:45.520 no or to have a boundary in place and then conversely some men just go way too hard

00:08:52.100 this is this was more along the lines of what i did we confuse fear for respect and and and we win

00:09:02.900 every single battle that we might have with our kids but we lose the war and i don't think it's

00:09:08.820 maybe that's not even the best way to say it because it's not a battle with your kids but

00:09:12.640 i hope you understand what i'm saying is that you can win an argument you can get your kids to

00:09:18.900 comply through threat of discipline or punishment or restriction. But is that what you're wanting

00:09:26.820 to do? Or are you trying to raise good men and women? Because the kind of kids that men like

00:09:35.180 that raise are the ones who grow up and cannot wait to get away from you. I think that real

00:09:42.960 discipline is about teaching not punishing it's not punitive it's educational the root of the word

00:09:53.260 teaching is to instruct your job is not to make your kid afraid of the consequences if he or she

00:10:02.480 doesn't do what you tell them to it's to help them build that internal barometer the internal

00:10:10.740 governor that means that they don't need you just standing and hovering over them all the time

00:10:15.680 and that requires you to be really really consistent they have to know where the lines are

00:10:21.220 and it requires you to be calm and cool and collected it requires correction

00:10:28.340 delivered in an appropriate way because if you deliver it in rage it teaches them

00:10:35.180 about your temper and your lack of control, not their behavior. And that's what we're trying to

00:10:43.360 audit is their behavior. We want our kids to behave differently. We don't want to teach them

00:10:48.400 that we're out of control or that our behavior is the problem. It requires that your children

00:10:54.120 never doubt, even when you're holding a very hard line, that you are in their corner, that you care

00:11:00.660 about them, that you love them, that you want them to thrive and win and succeed. Number four, guys,

00:11:09.740 I'm asking you to do some hard things today. Number four is to let your kids struggle.

00:11:15.560 You do. You have to let them struggle. It runs against every instinct that you have,

00:11:21.500 especially if you grew up without much for yourself and you swore to your kids or yourself

00:11:28.240 that your kids would not experience what you did as a kid.

00:11:33.400 But if you try to remove every single obstacle

00:11:36.540 from your kid's life, that isn't love.

00:11:41.300 You're trying to make your own ego feel better.

00:11:44.960 And what's really happening is you're crippling your kids.

00:11:49.660 You are hurting them.

00:11:54.380 The struggle in life, just like it is for you,

00:11:57.140 is where that growth happens.

00:11:59.760 You know, that kid who's never allowed to fail,

00:12:01.840 never allowed to feel the weight of a hard thing,

00:12:03.580 never has to sit with the consequences

00:12:05.120 of making dumb decisions like we all do as kids, 0.97

00:12:08.340 becomes an adult who crumbles the first time 1.00

00:12:14.140 you aren't around to cushion the blow.

00:12:18.780 Your job is not to carry your kids.

00:12:22.040 It's to walk right beside them

00:12:24.600 while they learn to shoulder their own weight and then of course to be there to be steady to be a

00:12:30.920 beacon of strength and hope and and and stability when when they stumble or when they're in trouble

00:12:36.520 but you've got to let your son lose the baseball game and just sit and wallow in it a little bit

00:12:43.900 you have to let your daughter wrestle with that hard assignment at school or that breakup with

00:12:53.260 her boyfriend instead of just doing it for her or rescuing her or telling her that she's amazing

00:12:59.060 just because she is you have to resist the urge to rescue your kids because every time

00:13:05.940 that you attempt to solve a problem that they could have solved themselves you're what you're

00:13:13.920 really doing is you're teaching them that you don't believe they're capable of doing it

00:13:18.620 believe in them believe in yourself believe in humanity even that they're tough enough and

00:13:27.220 strong enough and and courageous enough and resilient enough to just let life be a little

00:13:34.800 hard the caveat to that is that if your kids are in imminent danger of course we're going to come

00:13:39.940 in our motto is protect provide preside there's going to be times where i have to protect my

00:13:44.320 children. And there's going to be other times where it's more like me protecting my own feelings

00:13:49.680 than it is protecting them. All right, number five, you have to tell them who they are.

00:13:58.760 Your children are in their most formative years right now. They are trying to figure out who they

00:14:04.780 are on this spinning rock. They're trying to figure out their identity. And they're desperate,

00:14:11.480 desperate for validation and approval from you

00:14:15.480 and they may not ever admit it but if you don't tell them who they are or or even who you expect 0.92

00:14:24.120 them to be guess who will the world the the the filthy degenerate entertainers of the world will

00:14:31.900 tell them the filthy degenerate politicians will tell them the school teachers who don't have your 0.95

00:14:38.940 best interest or your children's interest at heart will tell them. And they'll believe it 0.76

00:14:44.860 because children are looking to authority. They don't know what to do. You can see it in a child

00:14:52.440 who's two or three years old and they'll look at you like, daddy, what are we doing? Where do we go?

00:14:57.120 They're looking for advice and guidance. The world is not kind. The world is not righteous.

00:15:05.320 it's not even accurate what the world teaches our children it's gross it's degenerate it's 1.00

00:15:14.240 devoid of principle you can see it in the transgender issues you can see it in the way 1.00

00:15:20.660 that we open up our borders you can see it in the way that we view race in america 0.92

00:15:27.120 you can see it in every aspect of life. It's gross. It's harmful. So I think that we could 0.95

00:15:35.640 do a better job of praising our children. And when they do good, like what good do you see in them?

00:15:41.240 What, what should they be proud of? What did they accomplish that was on them?

00:15:47.840 And it's not empty praise. And I'm willing to be honest about my kids. Like when my kids don't do

00:15:53.820 well and they say, what do you think, dad? I'm like, I don't think you performed your best.

00:15:57.120 if one of my sons says, hey, dad, what'd you think about the game? I would tell him, hey,

00:16:01.840 I'm frustrated because I think you had more in you. And I think you left it on the field,

00:16:06.440 didn't leave it on the field. I think you brought it back with you. What do you think?

00:16:11.200 But then if they do well, I celebrate that. I honor that. I respect that. I call it the

00:16:17.660 American Idol syndrome where so many parents will just tell their kids, you're great. You're

00:16:21.920 wonderful. You can sing. You can do so great. And then they go into the world and they stand

00:16:26.640 in front of Simon Cowell on American Idol, or America's Got Talent, I think it is now,

00:16:31.660 and he rips them to shreds because at least he's willing to be honest where you weren't.

00:16:39.360 Kids can see through, hey, good job, bud, you did good. But if you really observe what they're

00:16:44.340 doing and you tell them, hey, I saw how you stood up for that kid when no one else would,

00:16:49.140 that's courage. That's what Micklers do. And that's who you are.

00:16:53.680 you're going to get to hand them a narrative an identity a belief system that they will carry

00:17:04.380 around for decades even if it doesn't feel like it sticks immediately make it a real one make it

00:17:09.740 a true one make it a principled one make it a strong one and tell them that you love them

00:17:16.320 my children my oldest son who's 18 years old and all of my kids will do this

00:17:21.260 they will say in front of their friends, dad, I love you. And I will say, I love you in front

00:17:27.280 of their friends. I'm not embarrassed about that. I'm not ashamed about that. I will tell them in

00:17:33.280 front of their friends, I'm proud of you for who you're being. I'm proud of the way that you showed

00:17:38.320 up. I'm proud of the way you did that thing. And by the way, I also tell that to their friends too,

00:17:42.840 that I'm familiar with because there might not be a man in those kids' lives who are telling them

00:17:49.380 that. A lot of us were raised by men who, who did love us, but they never expressed it. And then we

00:17:58.580 felt this big gap. You don't, don't pass that down. Love on your kids, emotionally, mentally,

00:18:07.420 physically, hug them, put your arm around them, cry with them. You know, not, not at the expense

00:18:13.560 or of your own authority in their lives,

00:18:18.400 but like be there with them.

00:18:22.060 Tell them when they do good.

00:18:23.540 Tell them when they don't do so good.

00:18:25.100 Give them the real answers.

00:18:27.900 All right, number six, build something together.

00:18:30.560 Enlist them in the growth.

00:18:34.860 Connection does not happen when you sit a kid down

00:18:37.360 and you say, hey, let's connect, buddy.

00:18:38.620 I really want to talk with you about how your day was.

00:18:41.140 they kids don't want to do that they want to do something shoulder to shoulder in in doing

00:18:48.120 especially boys we we as men we open up sideways women open up face to face men open up sideways

00:18:58.320 so not across a table but while you're both working on something when's the last time you

00:19:04.940 taught your kid how to change a tire when's the last time you just sat and built lego with them

00:19:10.940 or built a workbench with them. 0.98

00:19:15.940 Boys need their hands busy, eyes on a task.

00:19:20.700 And then the conversation that you're hoping to have

00:19:23.020 with your kids shows up in the truck,

00:19:25.700 in the garage, on the trail,

00:19:28.880 halfway through the project you're doing

00:19:30.780 and you can't figure it out.

00:19:33.060 Build something, like fix the fence with them.

00:19:36.960 Teach them a skill you have.

00:19:38.220 Maybe you're good at jujitsu or shooting guns.

00:19:40.940 or fixing plumbing or painting or building websites.

00:19:47.380 Take on hard things as a team with them.

00:19:49.440 Hey, bud, let me show you this.

00:19:50.700 I'm doing this thing right now.

00:19:51.680 Let's do it together.

00:19:54.440 And I'm not saying that they're always going to be real excited about that, right?

00:19:57.620 Like when I tell my kids, hey, I need help with this thing, they're like, ugh.

00:20:01.540 And I get it.

00:20:02.280 I wouldn't have been excited about it either.

00:20:03.700 But if I make it fun and engaging, and even if I don't, they're going to remember that forever.

00:20:07.600 because the beauty in that is that your kids will get to see you solve problems.

00:20:14.360 They'll see you frustrated, but push through it and finish it, complete the task. That's the

00:20:20.380 memory that they need. That's a lesson that will be embedded into their code, into their DNA.

00:20:28.540 And guys, the last point that I want to make on this Father's Day weekend is I really want you

00:20:34.220 a father from a full tank. This one might be the hardest for men. You cannot give your kids

00:20:41.440 the steadiness and the stability and the strength they need that you don't have.

00:20:46.760 If you're suffering or you're running on empty, or you have no mission of your own,

00:20:53.520 no brotherhood, no physical discipline, no spiritual growth, you have nothing to draw on

00:21:02.020 when your kids need you the most. I know this because this was me. I showed up irritable and

00:21:09.800 distracted, very reactive, impatient. I had nothing left in the tank. And this is why your

00:21:21.120 own development isn't selfish. It's actually the foundation for development in your children.

00:21:26.360 The work that you do on yourself, the standards you hold for your own body and your mind and your

00:21:31.240 soul, that's character. That's what fills the tank that you're going to be drawing from,

00:21:41.400 siphoning from, to give to your children for the next potentially 20 years.

00:21:47.760 Take care of yourself, guys. It's okay. It's not selfish. The way that I view selfishness

00:21:54.100 is you're doing something at the expense of others. But I don't think it's selfish to do

00:22:00.320 something for yourself that aligns with the interests of the people that you have a responsibility

00:22:04.480 for. So I don't think it's selfish for me to wake up early and go to the gym because it aligns with

00:22:11.460 what my children need from me. I don't think it's selfish to go on a hunting trip every once in a

00:22:18.640 while, not all the time, but every once in a while, because me going to spend time with my friends

00:22:24.280 doing something that I love, pursuing something meaningful and exciting to me, lets me come back

00:22:28.420 more engaged and aligns with what they need from me as their father. That is not how I define

00:22:35.260 selfishness. Now, do you get some benefit from it? Of course. But because in its alignment with

00:22:42.380 their goals or what they need from you, you can take the negative connotation of selfishness out

00:22:48.200 of it. Now, look, if I went on every hunting trip that was presented to me, then I'd be gone every

00:22:55.700 single weekend. And that would be selfish because at that point we've crossed the boundary from

00:23:01.240 self-care to distancing myself from my children and being not present, like one of the points we

00:23:08.240 talked about earlier. So that would be selfish. Take care of yourself so you have something to

00:23:13.880 give. Surround yourself with other men who hold you to a standard. I don't believe that the father

00:23:21.340 of our, excuse me, the quality of our fathering or the quality of our life in general will outpace

00:23:28.380 the quality of our skillset? How could it? How could you produce the amount of wealth that you

00:23:37.540 want to produce if you are lazy? How could you produce the types of relationships that you want

00:23:44.600 in your life if you don't love yourself, if you hate yourself?

00:23:51.340 how can you raise your children in righteousness if you are not righteous?

00:23:57.300 How can you do that? You can't. You have to be the barometer by which your children measure

00:24:04.640 themselves. Not as a comparison trap, not as I can't ever step outside of my father's shadow,

00:24:13.580 not at all. Because the other things I talked about are important as well,

00:24:16.820 but you have to be the benchmark. I was watching this beautiful clip the other day

00:24:20.820 and it was this woman and it's probably maybe even at this point a decade old it's this it's this 0.99

00:24:26.260 female athlete and obviously she's very talented fit she can run um it's just an incredible athlete 0.97

00:24:33.740 and she's blind and there's a man running but beside her and you can see it he's he she can

00:24:41.740 feel him maybe maybe it's his arm or his leg rubbing against her as she runs he's probably

00:24:46.660 communicating verbally to her, although the video does not show the exchange they have.

00:24:51.920 And she broke a world record for being the fastest in that event for a blind woman

00:24:58.380 because she had somebody pacing for her. She had that man pacing for her. You are that man. 0.61

00:25:09.040 And I might get a little emotional as I say this, but you are the pacer.

00:25:12.700 you're that pace car or you're that person running next to that woman to break a world record

00:25:18.600 that's your job guys and it's a good job it's a righteous it's a virtuous

00:25:28.860 job it's it's it's needed more than you might imagine or maybe you do fully imagine

00:25:37.900 maybe you do fully know maybe your dad wasn't around and you get it or maybe he was

00:25:42.520 or maybe he passed away and that was the greatest loss you ever experienced.

00:25:51.500 Obviously, this is Father's Day weekend. It's a big deal.

00:25:55.500 Don't dismiss the value you add to society. Don't let other people dismiss what you do.

00:26:01.740 Don't let society and culture and entertainment and academia make a mockery of the way that we

00:26:06.880 show up as men. It is not to be mocked. It is to be celebrated. It's to be honored. It's to be

00:26:13.480 embraced. Be present, guys. Model masculinity and manliness. Discipline your children with love.

00:26:21.280 Let them struggle under your watchful care. Tell them who they are. Build things together.

00:26:30.200 and father from that full tank we just talked about.

00:26:35.620 So here's what I want you to do this weekend.

00:26:40.420 Don't try to fix everything in the next 48 hours 0.61

00:26:43.280 because your kids and maybe your wife are going to be like,

00:26:46.780 what in the world has gotten this guy?

00:26:49.120 And they may not believe you or may not be bought in,

00:26:51.520 but pick one thing.

00:26:53.600 Maybe it's just being more present,

00:26:56.040 putting your phone away.

00:26:57.740 Maybe it's letting them come into the workshop and build something with you.

00:27:01.800 Maybe it's not rescuing them every time they run into a problem.

00:27:05.220 Just pick one, the hardest, the one that landed most for you, the hardest thing.

00:27:10.280 And there's a reason that one of those things probably really landed for you.

00:27:13.220 And then act on it this weekend while it's here, while it's in front of you.

00:27:16.940 Have that conversation with your kids.

00:27:19.420 Tell your son and daughter you love them.

00:27:21.560 Hug them.

00:27:23.140 Say, hey, let's go build something together.

00:27:24.760 Let's go on a hike.

00:27:25.620 say the words that you've been meaning to say. No one's going to do this for you. Nobody can do

00:27:31.460 it for you. And even if I could or somebody else could, it won't land as well as it can from coming

00:27:36.020 from you. If I tell your children that they are loved, that means nothing compared to you saying,

00:27:44.760 hey kids, I love you. Your kids didn't choose to be here and you didn't either.

00:27:51.700 you you brought them into this world it's hard it's it's beautiful it's amazing but it's hard

00:27:58.880 and the kind of men and women that they'll become will be shaped more than anything else and I hope

00:28:05.360 this is true by you and how you showed up or how you didn't so this uh father's day be the guy who

00:28:19.440 shows up. And not just this weekend, but every single day for the rest of their lives. I've often

00:28:26.120 said that a man's job as a father is to render himself obsolete. And that is true. I still stand 1.00

00:28:30.660 by that. Your job is to render yourself obsolete, but that doesn't mean that when they go out into

00:28:35.980 the big wide world on their own, that you aren't going to be there for them. My oldest son just

00:28:39.720 graduated. He's going out on his own. He's going to college and he's playing sports in college.

00:28:44.740 and you know it's like i still want to be there and present every day all day i want to be present

00:28:51.040 for him it's going to be different the dynamics going to be different i'm still important in his

00:28:54.880 life so guys if you're a father first first and foremost well last and foremost i wish you a happy

00:29:02.300 father's day where all of society or much of is telling you that you're a joke that you're a

00:29:07.920 mockery that masculinity is inherently bad and that you don't know what you're doing and you 0.98

00:29:12.340 The world don't need no man.

00:29:14.900 I'm here to tell you the opposite. 0.98

00:29:17.620 You are what makes things move.

00:29:22.320 You are the person that your children look up to

00:29:25.680 for guidance and insight and direction

00:29:27.900 and discipline and focus.

00:29:30.580 So let's be that.

00:29:32.100 I've got four kids.

00:29:33.500 I can do better.

00:29:34.800 I know you can too.

00:29:35.780 And I know you want to.

00:29:37.100 You wouldn't be listening to this podcast

00:29:38.220 if that weren't the case.

00:29:39.200 So again, happy Father's Day to you fathers.

00:29:41.600 what a beautiful day. Enjoy your family, but remember it with those seven points in mind.

00:29:46.320 Go work on yourself. And if you need some pointers or tips, we'll be here. The Iron Council is a
