Order of Man - Avoid Burnout in Your Business and Relationships ｜ FRIDAY FIELD NOTES

00:00:00.000 You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest, embrace your fears, and boldly chart

00:00:05.020 your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time, every time.

00:00:10.460 You are not easily deterred or defeated, rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life. This is who

00:00:17.240 you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day, and after all is said and done,

00:00:22.820 you can call yourself a man. Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Michler,

00:00:27.800 and I am the host and the founder of the Order of Man podcast and movement. Welcome here. Welcome

00:00:32.760 back. It's been a good ride. We've been in this thing for six years now, and the amount of traction

00:00:40.140 that we've been able to make in that period of time is absolutely phenomenal, which I like to

00:00:44.420 claim some credit for it, but let's be honest, it's you. It's you as men listening, tuning in,

00:00:49.180 banding with us, becoming the type of men we've been talking about for the past six years now,

00:00:53.160 sharing the message, and just stepping up the way that you need to. First and foremost,

00:00:57.700 I want to say thank you. If you are new to the podcast, this is your Friday Field Notes. You get

00:01:01.580 to hear from me for the next 20, 25 minutes or so on some topics that I've been thinking about from

00:01:06.360 throughout the week, but of course, we've got our interview show as well, where we interview guys

00:01:11.240 like Steve Rinella, Jocko Willing, David Goggins, Andy Priscilla. The men that come on are absolutely

00:01:17.500 phenomenal, and it's my job to secure these guests for you and then take their education experience

00:01:24.320 information, distill it down into a practical conversation that you can apply to your life.

00:01:29.820 So that's what this one's going to be. We're going to be talking about avoiding burnout because this is

00:01:34.540 something that all men deal with. It's something that I've certainly dealt with, not only here with

00:01:38.440 Order of Man, but other facets of my life. So we're going to get into that in a minute because I have

00:01:42.700 five tips that you can use in your life to avoid burnout yourself. But before I do, I want to make

00:01:48.780 one other announcement. A lot of you guys know at this point that we just came out with Origin Beard

00:01:54.600 Oil. So if you want a beard as glorious and beautiful and luscious as this beard here, then

00:02:01.400 you got to have Origin Beard Oil. I was looking through the hot new releases for beard products on all of

00:02:08.580 Amazon. And we looked at top 50, top 40, top 30, 20, 10. And lo and behold, Origin Beard Oil as of today

00:02:16.400 is the number one hot new beard oil release in all of Amazon. So if you've purchased any beard oil,

00:02:23.860 if you've left a verified review, you've tried it out, you get value from it. I just want to tell you,

00:02:29.220 I appreciate you. This is a project that I work closely with Origin on. They've done a wonderful,

00:02:33.400 wonderful job putting together something that is 100% made and sourced in America. In fact,

00:02:39.880 it's the people here in Maine, my neighbors right down the road that are shipping this stuff out.

00:02:45.400 And we have factories here in the US and it's pretty incredible what we've been able to do here

00:02:50.000 with this beard product. So again, if you're interested in supporting a 100% made and sourced

00:02:53.940 in America company and a manufacturing company, then make sure to check out Origin Beard Oil on Amazon.

00:02:59.820 And if you pick up a bottle and leave a review, a verified review, and then email a screenshot of

00:03:07.140 that review to promotions at origin MFG, promotions at origin MFG.com. They'll go ahead and send you a

00:03:15.300 free bottle. So there you go. That's my announcement. All right, guys, let's talk about avoiding burnout.

00:03:21.300 This is something all men deal with. Things don't always go according to plan. Results take longer 1.00

00:03:28.100 than you think they will. You get tired, you get run down, you get beat up. This is part of life.

00:03:34.640 And I don't want you to be burned out on any facet of your life, whether it's your fitness journey,

00:03:41.320 the relationship that you have with your wife or anybody else for that matter,

00:03:44.460 a business that you might be engaged in, a career endeavor or pursuit, a hobby, whatever.

00:03:48.720 I don't want you to be burned out. And I don't want you to be burned out because often the results

00:03:54.960 come after most, the average person, the majority of people probably do burnout. And then we wonder

00:04:03.120 why we're not experiencing the results. Is it because possibly we have burnt out before we yield

00:04:09.480 the benefit, the blessing, the outcome of our work up to that point? So we're going to break this down.

00:04:18.680 We're going to talk about why you should avoid burning out and more importantly, how to avoid

00:04:23.040 burning out. So let's just jump right into it. Again, five points for this. Number one, the first

00:04:28.380 point is don't burn all of your fuel at once, right? A lot of you guys are coming out of the gates on

00:04:35.080 fire screaming. You're so excited about the new program, the new diet, the new relationship,

00:04:40.240 the new business venture, the new project, whatever it is you're doing. And you burn all of your fuel at

00:04:46.040 once. And when all of that fuel is burned up, you have absolutely nothing left in the tank. And so you

00:04:53.220 quit, you throw in the towel, you realize that you don't have the same level of interest or that it has

00:04:59.840 become difficult or demanding, or it isn't what you expected. And so you don't have any more fuel left

00:05:07.740 to drive on with what it is that you want to drive on with. I get it. I understand being excited. I

00:05:14.020 understand being hopped up, but understand that the results that you desire are going to take

00:05:18.840 a long time and it's going to take a lot of effort. And you need to know that if you burn it all up,

00:05:24.840 right at, right at front. And I know a lot of guys like this, I don't happen to be one of these guys.

00:05:29.940 But these tend to be more of your emotionally charged people, right? They're so motivated.

00:05:38.440 They're so excited. They're so inspired at this moment in time that they burn up everything because

00:05:44.140 they can't think about what's going to happen in a week or a month or six years. Like we've been

00:05:51.380 going here with order of man. They think about what's happening right now. And that's an emotionally

00:05:55.980 charged response. And by the way, I don't say that, that, that as a negative, that I, the concept that

00:06:01.900 we use our emotions. I know a lot of people do. And a lot of people interpret what isn't meant to be

00:06:06.520 interpreted as, as something negative, but they interpret it negatively. I'm not suggesting you don't

00:06:14.020 be emotional. I think you should use emotions as a metric, not the only metric, but a metric for the

00:06:21.080 direction in your life. But if you're, if your fuel is emotionally charged, that burns hot and it

00:06:28.500 burns quickly. And then when all of that is gone, there's nothing left. There's no logic. There's

00:06:34.600 no reasoning. There's no grit, no determination behind that. You got to have some other, if we're

00:06:40.840 using the analogy of fuel, some other denser, longer lasting, longer burning fuel than the emotion

00:06:51.060 of being excited. So you can be excited, but don't come out of the gate swinging, figure out, okay,

00:06:57.680 I'm in this thing for the long haul. I got to keep myself in this thing and figure out how to do that.

00:07:02.980 Number two, mix things up. All right. Some of us get so monotonous, so mundane. You know, we wake up

00:07:10.380 at the same time every day. We do the same exercises. We go through the same routines. We attempt to

00:07:15.360 solve the same problems. We send out the same emails and everything is always the same. This is

00:07:21.960 actually what gets me out of all the points that I'm sharing with you today. Number one, again, was

00:07:26.240 don't burn all your fuel at once. That's not something I struggle with. Number two is I just get

00:07:32.120 bored. I get bored if everything is always the same. So how do you avoid boredom is you mix it up,

00:07:39.940 take a new route to work, do a new workout routine, practice a different martial art,

00:07:47.840 have a different kind of conversation with your wife, take your family on a vacation or to a place

00:07:52.980 that you've never gone before, solve a different problem at work. Now, one thing I will say is that

00:07:58.800 you can mix things up too much and you can start deviating from your path. So for example, if

00:08:07.680 you're trying to start a new business and you're trying to solve problems for men, like we are here

00:08:12.980 with Order of Man, and all of a sudden you start solving problems for women, okay, well, then that 1.00

00:08:20.380 actually doesn't fit within your objective and you're detracting from what you could be doing. Yes,

00:08:26.480 it will be more interesting, but it's not going to move the needle. So instead of changing your

00:08:31.460 demographic or changing what it is you're trying to do, you change the way that you approach it. So you're

00:08:36.400 still trying to solve the same problems that is in this case, helping men, equipping them,

00:08:41.080 empowering them with what they need to thrive, but we do it in a different way. So one of the ways

00:08:45.920 that we've done it here is initially we did the interview podcast that comes out each and every

00:08:50.940 Tuesday. And because I get a little bit bored with the same thing over and over again, we came out with

00:08:57.400 a second show and then a third show. And now we have the ask me anything. We have this, your Friday

00:09:02.240 field notes. This is part of the way that I've avoided being burned out because we're still

00:09:07.080 solving the same problems, but we're going about it in a different way. Another way that we've done

00:09:12.040 that is we brought merchandise in. That isn't something we always did, but it solves a problem

00:09:17.680 that helps funding with the movement. It gives guys great looking gear that they're going to use

00:09:24.140 and wear and be proud to wear because it has a meaning and purpose behind it. And it's fun. I enjoy

00:09:28.260 the design element. I enjoy growing the store. We've also done this with live events. It wasn't

00:09:34.560 enough for me to have the digital conversations that we've been having specifically in our exclusive

00:09:39.500 Brotherhood, the Iron Council. I wanted to do events live. So we did a men's event with 20 guys. And then

00:09:45.720 we did a father-son event because I wanted to mix it up. And we did that with 40. Was it 40? Yes. 40,

00:09:52.380 well, it's 20 fathers and 20 boys. So 40 total attendees. And then we did the main event,

00:09:57.980 which we had 70-ish people there. And the next one, we'll have a hundred people there,

00:10:02.320 but we're continually mixing things up because I don't want to get bored and I don't want to burn

00:10:08.080 out. And I don't want things to be so monotonous and the same every day because that would just drive

00:10:13.880 me nuts. And this is most people, they chase what's exciting. So they'll bounce from place to

00:10:20.860 place from work to work, relationship to relationship, exercise to exercise when we

00:10:25.660 know it's been proven that the results come through sustained effort. So continue to solve

00:10:31.240 the same problems, but the way that we solve those problems is going to be different. And that's,

00:10:36.120 what's going to help you avoid the burnout that maybe you would if you were doing the same things

00:10:40.680 over and over again, every single day. All right. Number three, you got to set up your realistic

00:10:46.580 expectations. Okay. You have to set up realistic expectations for you, for other people, for the

00:10:56.080 scenario that might be playing out. Because again, most people think that the results are going to

00:11:02.200 come quicker than they actually will. And in my experience, the results that I'm after tend to take

00:11:08.000 longer. I'm not as effective as I could or should or would like to be. And so I have to set realistic

00:11:15.100 expectations that this is not always going to be an exciting ride. That it's not always going to

00:11:20.900 happen overnight. That I'm going to have to be in this game for years and years and years in order

00:11:27.240 to produce the results that I'm after. When I started this podcast, I deliberately and intentionally,

00:11:34.560 and I can remember vividly telling myself that I will not make a decision as to whether or not to

00:11:39.500 throw in the towel or keep going with order of man in the podcast for at least two years.

00:11:45.300 That meant I would get over a hundred episodes in the bank published, released before I even

00:11:51.180 contemplated, even considered not doing it. And we know that I was way more excited well ahead of

00:11:59.840 a hundred episodes into the first five or six or maybe 10 tops episodes. I knew we were onto something

00:12:05.560 big here. So it didn't take that timeframe, but look, if you're expecting the results,

00:12:10.820 if you're expecting to have the six pack abs in the next week, but you spent the last decade on the

00:12:16.040 couch, you're going to fail. You are, you're going to quit because you don't have or won't meet your

00:12:22.460 expectation. If you think that after two decades of not leading your wife and your family and your

00:12:29.480 children well, that all of a sudden, if you tell them, well, I'm listening to this podcast and

00:12:32.980 I'm waking up early. So what's your problem? If you think that's going to, that's actually what's

00:12:38.000 going to move the needle in your relationship. That's the expectation you have when it doesn't

00:12:42.600 happen by your standard, by your clock, you're going to quit and you're going to revert back to

00:12:48.480 your old ways, which we know we're not producing the results that you want. So let's lower the

00:12:54.160 expectations for others, mostly and the scenario, not for yourself, hold yourself to a high standard,

00:13:00.020 but I don't think we need to place unrealistic expectations on circumstances and we certainly

00:13:05.560 shouldn't be placing them on others. So lower the bar for those individuals and those scenarios

00:13:11.060 and what it will take, increase the standard for yourself by doing some of these other things like

00:13:16.640 mixing it up, not burning all your fuel at once, that sort of thing. But this is very important that

00:13:21.960 we make sure we have the realistic expectations in place, which by the way, actually marries nicely with

00:13:27.120 point number one, where I said, don't burn all out at once. Again, the guys who are emotionally

00:13:32.020 charged, who are really hopped up and motivated right now are burning that high octane fuel that

00:13:41.260 just doesn't last. Those people usually don't have realistic expectations. Imagine this. Here's a great

00:13:47.860 way to look at it. Imagine I came to you and I said, hey, you know, I want to, let's play football.

00:13:53.640 You're going to get your, your best guys together. I'm going to get my best guys together and we're

00:13:57.960 going to play a game, but here's the deal. I'm not going to tell you how long the game's going to

00:14:03.220 last. So now you're left with trying to decide, do I put all my best players in? Do we go a thousand

00:14:11.580 miles an hour, hoping that the game doesn't last very long? Do we underplay for the first little

00:14:17.080 while thinking that maybe the game is going to last a long time? The thing is we don't know,

00:14:21.360 right? You don't know what's going to happen in your relationship. You don't know what's going

00:14:26.060 to happen in your business. These things are largely the result beyond your control because

00:14:31.320 there's a lot of things that move and there's a lot of scenarios and things that are, that are

00:14:35.100 outside of our control. You don't know that. And so you're basically playing a game that you're not

00:14:42.140 really aware of how long it will last. So how do you strategize? How do you plan for? Well, if it were

00:14:47.620 me, I would plan on being in the thing forever. How can I sustain myself and my results and my

00:14:54.760 effort, more importantly, forever until I die? And that's actually how I look at it with this podcast.

00:15:01.540 You know, I don't, I don't have to think that I need all the results immediately. I actually know

00:15:06.580 with every fiber of my being that we will ultimately achieve the success that we're after.

00:15:11.760 I know that it's already, it's, it's already a reality. It's not a reality. It's already potential.

00:15:19.080 It just is what it is. And all I have to do is just keep myself in the game long enough for that

00:15:24.080 to happen. And that doesn't mean I'm just kind of going through the motions. No, I told you earlier,

00:15:29.460 I mix things up. I change things up. I look for new problems. I look for new ways of providing

00:15:33.560 solutions to those problems for men. I keep it in the same vein, but I mix it up. And because I know

00:15:39.680 that I'm going to be in this game for the rest of my life, there's no exit strategy here,

00:15:44.340 then I can do the work and just have faith that it's going to play out the way that it should.

00:15:49.980 All right. Number four, here's something you need to consider. There's going to be parts of certain

00:15:56.200 elements of your life, whether it's a business, mostly business, I would say,

00:16:00.760 and some of your personal things where you just don't enjoy doing them. You know, with this podcast,

00:16:06.560 I don't enjoy editing podcasts. I don't enjoy long drawn out meetings to talk about the backend

00:16:13.760 finances and all the little minutiae and details that need to be thought about and considered as

00:16:19.500 we continue to grow this movement. I don't like doing that stuff. I realized the importance of it.

00:16:25.060 I realized why it needs to be done, but I don't like doing it. But if I force myself to do it,

00:16:30.940 I'm going to burn out. I can do it for a while. We don't edit our podcast anymore. Cody Lanham does

00:16:36.880 a wonderful job editing the podcast. I have a CPA who handles the tax ramifications. I have people

00:16:44.560 in the right places to do the things that not only am I not good at the things I don't want to do

00:16:49.380 because they suck all of my energy, time, and attention. And if you're focused on all of the

00:16:55.600 things that you hate doing 90 to a hundred percent of the time, is it any wonder why you

00:17:01.720 burned out? No, of course not. You know exactly why you burned out because you were miserable and you

00:17:07.660 shouldn't be miserable. We can be miserable for a little while. And I have, there's times within 0.93

00:17:12.820 this movement where I'm, I'm, I wouldn't say miserable, but not enjoying elements and parts of

00:17:19.200 it. So I've delegated those responsibilities out. I ensure they still get done, but I delegate them

00:17:24.060 out to people who find value in doing that kind of work and get energized from doing that work. It

00:17:29.800 just isn't me. I know what needs to get done. I don't have to be the one to do it. And if you want

00:17:36.060 to avoid being burned out, even at home on the home front, imagine if you did all of the chores around

00:17:41.700 the house, everything, vacuum, dusted, put away dishes, cleaned up after everybody, took care of the

00:17:48.020 yards, took care of the house, did all the repairs, like everything that would burn you out. Same thing,

00:17:55.240 by the way, with your wife guys, if she's doing it all and you don't contribute around the house,

00:18:02.900 she's going to burn out. A lot of you guys ask, well, you know, my wife, she, it just seems more

00:18:08.640 like a roommate. Yeah. Because maybe you guys are treating each other like roommates and you're not

00:18:14.120 helping each other out and you're letting that other person do everything. And then that person's

00:18:17.800 just burning out. Of course, don't allow that stuff to happen. Again, we can delegate some of

00:18:23.480 these things out. We can share responsibilities. My wife, for example, doesn't want to handle the 1.00

00:18:28.420 finances within the family dynamic. No problem. I'll handle that. And she can handle the cooking 0.63

00:18:34.520 is actually one of her roles. I hate cooking. I despise it. And every time I say that somebody's

00:18:39.460 like, well, it's probably because you're not doing it right. If you, you know, grilled on the

00:18:43.180 Traeger grill or you, you learned this technique or learned the, no, I don't like cooking. I find

00:18:48.500 no value in it. I find no joy in it. I find no meaning in it. I just do not enjoy it. My wife,

00:18:55.240 however, loves it. She actually views it as a, a gift of, of love. It's how she expresses that to a

00:19:04.760 degree. So she's good at it. So she's the one who does the cooking. And I do other things around

00:19:10.000 the house that she doesn't enjoy it, like the family finances. So we delegate those things out.

00:19:15.180 We stick to our strengths. We stick to the things that energize us. We ensure the other things get

00:19:19.760 done and then we're less likely to burn out. So that's point number four. And then the last one,

00:19:24.380 guys, and I've been talking about this for a long time, but you got to find ventilation outlets.

00:19:28.500 You have to have a, you have to have an outlet that has nothing to do with your endeavor. So if you're

00:19:34.380 knee deep or neck deep in your business and you want it to grow and you're trying to get it off the

00:19:38.460 ground, a lot of people will be tempted to put everything, all of their time and energy and

00:19:43.040 attention and every little bit of resources they have into that venture. And while I can appreciate

00:19:48.540 that, it's a mistake to do that. This is how we burn out. So you need to find an outlet, find a hobby,

00:19:57.360 skill development, an activity, a friend, a conversation. Maybe you like reading novels or you like

00:20:03.840 painting or you like spending time with your friends golfing or at the game. I don't know what

00:20:09.460 it is for you, but I'm giving you permission as if you needed it to have a healthy outlet so that you

00:20:17.120 don't pour every ounce of your being into your business or into your relationship or into whatever

00:20:23.440 project you're working on, because I want you to actually get it done and complete it. It's a little

00:20:29.220 counterintuitive, right? I'm telling you in order to stay in the business, you have to actually get

00:20:34.620 out of the business for a little bit. It's counterintuitive, but it works. You need to be

00:20:40.800 able to rejuvenate and recharge and rest the mind, rest the body. And when you do that and then come

00:20:47.540 back in within reason, you don't want to be doing that forever, obviously, but you do that for a time

00:20:51.900 and a period and you're intentional about it. And then you come back into the business or the venture

00:20:57.300 or the relationship or the project or the whatever, you're going to be that much more effective.

00:21:03.160 So this is how I've avoided burnout over the past six years. Now we've been doing, well,

00:21:09.140 as from a podcast perspective, we've done over 700 podcasts now over six years. So that's an average

00:21:18.760 of, it's probably two and a half to three podcasts per week for the last six years.

00:21:26.340 How can I do that? How can anybody do that? How can, how can guys work out every single day for the

00:21:35.360 last two decades? How can a man be committed and married to one person for 40, 50 years? How,

00:21:46.500 how is that possible without burning out? This is how, this is how I want you to stay in it. That's

00:21:54.700 where the results happen. The results aren't going to happen immediately. And you know what,

00:21:58.300 even if they do, they aren't lasting and you don't even have a formula. It just miraculously worked

00:22:04.940 out. I want a formula. I want to know what works. I want to know what makes a person successful on

00:22:09.540 every front, systematically formulated so that I can just duplicate it. That's what I'm after. I just

00:22:15.500 want to duplicate and replicate the result over and over and over and over. I want to plug into the

00:22:20.780 system and this is the system for avoiding burnout. So let's recap these things. Number one, don't burn

00:22:26.760 all of your fuel at once. I know you're excited. I know you have a new girlfriend or you're married

00:22:32.700 and I know you're excited and you want to spend every minute and all of your time and energy and

00:22:37.200 attention on her. I get it. I understand. I've been there. It's a mistake. I know you're starting

00:22:42.300 a new business. And so you think you got to pour everything into it and all of your energy and

00:22:47.200 your enthusiasm, it all has to go in there. I get it. But the emotional fuel you're burning

00:22:53.920 burns hot, no doubt, but it's not efficient and it's not long lasting. The fuel you need

00:23:00.780 is something that burns maybe not as hot, but a little bit longer, a lot longer. All right. Number

00:23:09.160 two, mix things up again, working towards the same solution. So here's a silly example. If you were 0.71

00:23:15.880 talking about not burning out in a relationship, when I tell you that you should mix things up,

00:23:22.100 I think it's safe to assume that you know, I'm not saying go step out on your wife. Sure. That 0.58

00:23:27.920 would be mixing things up, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about mixing things up,

00:23:32.980 but staying in the same vein. So if it's in a relationship, you're still honoring your commitment

00:23:38.000 to your wife, but you're going to mix it up by going on a different date night or having a different

00:23:45.080 activity or you having a little bit of free time with the friends and her having free time with

00:23:50.180 her friends or her family members or whatever it may be. Okay. So you're still solving the same

00:23:54.860 problems. If we're talking about a business, here's an example with order of man. I'm not

00:23:58.920 going to start order of women. Although I do have a lot of women I know who reach out and want 1.00

00:24:04.520 something like this for themselves. I get it, but that's not going to be me. I'm not going to be

00:24:08.200 doing that, but I am going to continue to solve problems creatively, different ways of going about

00:24:13.720 the same problems here with men. Cause that's who we focus on. And that's who we serve. 0.81

00:24:19.220 Number three, set your realistic expectations. You don't know how long it's going to take.

00:24:24.900 You don't know what's going to happen. It's probably going to take longer than you think.

00:24:29.080 You're probably not as good or as effective as you think you are. That's the reality.

00:24:32.700 So plan accordingly and become robotic and know that you're going to have to be in this game for

00:24:39.380 the long haul. When you set it more realistically like that, you're able to keep yourself in the

00:24:43.900 game longer. Cause if you think it's going to take two weeks at day 15, you're like, well, what the

00:24:49.520 hell? How come I don't have the six pack? How come my wife still doesn't trust me? How come I'm not

00:24:55.380 making seven figures a year? It's been 15 days. What gives you the right to think that that

00:25:02.600 should happen for you? No, many of you do. It's, it doesn't take, it takes significantly longer.

00:25:10.000 It's taken me six years to get us specifically with order of man. And then another decade before

00:25:15.600 that longer, probably 15 years before that to actually get me to the point where I could even

00:25:20.300 start order of man. It takes a long time. So be realistic about that and deal with it.

00:25:27.200 Number four, delegate the duties and responsibilities that don't energize you, uplift you. Certainly when

00:25:32.560 you're starting in a business, for example, you're going to have to do it all, but delegate that

00:25:36.700 stuff as soon as possible. So you can focus on the things that keep you energized and keep your ass 0.98

00:25:41.160 in the game. And number five, find your ventilation outlets. You got a vent and I'm not saying, get, 0.95

00:25:47.280 get the problems off your chest. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying you have to have an outlet

00:25:51.560 beyond whatever you're vested in. And here's there, there's another benefit of this guys.

00:25:57.040 When you go do other things, you read different types of books, by the way that you should be

00:26:02.080 doing that. Here's a mistake that I've seen a lot of guys do. They'll start a business like I did.

00:26:08.800 And then they'll read every damn self-help book, listen to every podcast on that subject matter. 0.95

00:26:17.300 And you just consume yourself with that one thing. That is a recipe for disaster. 0.99

00:26:25.140 Read a different book, read a novel, watch a different movie, pick up a different hobby or

00:26:31.220 skill. The one I'm working on now, and you guys have all heard about this is the canoe. I've had

00:26:35.820 guys say, well, I, you know, I wish I could work, work, build a canoe and work, do woodworking.

00:26:41.060 Well, yeah, you can, like, I don't have any knowledge or experience in building a canoe,

00:26:46.820 but that's how you get knowledge and experience. You do it. So, but that's completely unrelated to

00:26:53.700 anything else. It's still in the same vein though, right? Cause I talk a lot about fatherhood and

00:26:58.460 being engaged with your kids and, and working with your hands and learning new skills. So it's still in

00:27:03.380 the same vein. Like I talked about earlier, point number two, I believe, but it's something

00:27:08.600 different enough that it just unplugs me from everything else that I'm inundated with on a

00:27:15.180 daily basis. So again, finding ventilation outfit outlets. So that's it guys. That's your

00:27:21.220 five-step formula for ensuring that you do not burn out. I don't want you to burn out. I want you

00:27:28.480 to experience results and it takes longer than we think it does. And it requires more effort than we

00:27:33.340 think it will. And we're not as good as we think we are. So plan accordingly so we can keep

00:27:38.580 our butts in the game and ultimately experience the result in your relationship with your wife

00:27:44.560 and kids and friends, your career aspirations, your business pursuit, your health and fitness

00:27:50.080 goals, every facet of your life. Do not burn out. Implement these five strategies and I think you'll

00:27:56.580 have a better chance. All right, guys, that's all I've got. We'll be back next week. Until then,

00:28:00.640 go out there, take action and become the man you are meant to be.

00:28:03.740 Thank you for listening to the Order of Man podcast. If you're ready to take charge of

00:28:07.880 your life and be more of the man you were meant to be, we invite you to join the order at orderofman.com.
