Summary

You know as well as I do how hard and difficult life can be at times? Whether it s a mental struggle that we're having, anxiety, depression, or even suicidal thoughts, it might even be something emotionally charged. Maybe you lose your job, maybe you're struggling in your relationship, maybe the relationship you have with your kids is in turmoil, or maybe you've lost a client. The possibilities are endless, unfortunately. But what I ve noticed and what I think is common sense is that everything that we deal with as men, with a few minor exceptions, have to do with other people. And when other people struggle, it's our job as a father, a husband, a partner, a friend, a client, or an advisor, to help other people get through their struggles as much as we need to learn to get ourselves through the struggles.

00:00:00.000 Because the way that you present yourself often is going to be the first thing that people are going to see when you walk into a room.
00:00:07.840 And if you look like a slob, people aren't going to treat you anything other than a slob.
00:00:11.840 But if you look like a man who's bold and assertive and courageous and capable and you walk with your shoulders back and your chest out and you're proud of who you are and they can see that you have confidence and you're wearing clothing that fits and physically fit and capable,
00:00:27.860 of course, you're the rock.
00:00:32.560 You know as well as I do how hard and difficult life can be at times, whether it's a mental struggle that we're having, anxiety, depression, maybe even suicidal thoughts.
00:00:44.240 It might even be something emotionally charged.
00:00:46.840 Maybe you lose your job.
00:00:49.240 Maybe you're struggling in your relationship.
00:00:52.120 Maybe the relationship you have with your kids is in turmoil.
00:00:55.420 Maybe you've lost a client.
00:00:57.020 The possibilities are endless, unfortunately, in the things that we need to deal with.
00:01:02.280 But what I've noticed and what I think is common sense is that everything that we deal with as men, with a few minor exceptions, have to do with other people.
00:01:13.300 And when other people struggle, it's our job as a father or a husband or a partner or a client or an employer or an advisor and a coach to help other people get through their struggles as much as we need to learn to get ourselves through the struggles.
00:01:31.700 And I've talked at length about how we can improve our own mental, emotional, and spiritual resilience and toughness and sovereignty.
00:01:40.860 But today I want to focus on becoming the rock, not only for yourself so you can navigate those difficult times, but becoming the rock in other people's lives.
00:01:49.920 Your kids are relying on you.
00:01:51.320 Your wife is relying on you.
00:01:52.560 Your clients and your employees and your community members are relying on you.
00:01:56.920 And the way that we show up often spells the difference between whether or not they're going to be able to navigate the difficult circumstances of life just like you do or not.
00:02:05.480 And if they're in your life, it's safe to say that they're an important part of your life.
00:02:09.500 So today I want to share with you seven things that you can do right now, starting immediately.
00:02:15.320 Some of these are mindsets.
00:02:16.920 Some of them are just the way that we behave.
00:02:19.200 But seven things that you can do every single day to ensure that you are the rock in other people's lives as they're struggling.
00:02:25.700 Let's jump right into it.
00:02:27.060 Number one is you as a man need to communicate your desires.
00:02:30.340 I know this might sound a little counterintuitive, but if people don't know what you want and don't know what you're after, they're going to make assumptions.
00:02:39.200 And usually when people make assumptions, they're not favorable.
00:02:42.520 They're usually less than favorable.
00:02:44.520 So if people don't know what you're after, they don't know what you desire, they might be confused.
00:02:50.000 They might be frustrated.
00:02:51.280 They might assume ulterior motives.
00:02:54.040 Men, you have to communicate what you want.
00:02:55.860 So if in your household, things aren't going as well as you'd like them to, or there's something in your house that you want to improve, then it's your responsibility to communicate that effectively with your wife, with your children, with the people who will be impacted by the decisions that you're making.
00:03:11.840 If you're in a relationship with a wife or a girlfriend, or maybe even just dating, being able to communicate what you want out of that relationship might feel intimidating to you.
00:03:25.640 But imagine what it feels like when you're with a person who you don't know what they want, and you're trying to guess and assume that they're hopefully on the same page as you.
00:03:35.480 I believe that it's a man's job to go first in all aspects of life, and including relationships.
00:03:41.500 So if it's a romantic relationship, your job is to tell the other person how you feel.
00:03:46.940 Your job is to recognize areas where the relationship can improve and communicate that desire with other people.
00:03:55.540 If you're not getting what you want out of the relationship, whether it's something minor like greater signs of affection, or something much deeper like getting married, or changing the relationship dynamic because it's been struggling and trying to improve it, then it's on you as a man to communicate first what you want.
00:04:15.520 There are effective ways to do this, obviously, and there are some not so effective ways to do it.
00:04:20.280 And we'll hit a little bit on that today, but at the end of the day, don't let people guess what you want.
00:04:26.600 If you have a new client or a prospect, your job is to ask for the sale and tell them how you can help them.
00:04:33.780 Don't make people guess.
00:04:35.160 Don't make people wonder.
00:04:36.400 Don't leave them in the dark.
00:04:37.980 Always be the kind of person who, even if they don't entirely like what you want or can't get on board with what you want, at least they know what it is you're after.
00:04:46.820 A man who is clear about that, who can articulate his wants, needs, and desires, is a man who is safe to others, and a man who can be relied on when things go sideways.
00:04:58.240 Number two, have clear boundaries.
00:05:00.520 You know, we talk a lot about boundaries, and I think it's become a bit of a buzzword, but you have to ask, well, what does that mean?
00:05:07.340 What it means is that it's an action or a behavior that you will not allow from others.
00:05:14.920 So that could be parents or in-laws.
00:05:18.980 This is one I hear all the time.
00:05:20.260 Maybe you and your wife are trying to tighten up the diet for yourself and for your family, including your kids.
00:05:28.760 And every time your kids are with grandma and grandpa, they don't really care, and they let them eat whatever they want, fast food, all the candy in the world,
00:05:37.660 and they have no care in the world whatsoever for your own desires to raise your family in a healthy way.
00:05:45.320 That's a boundary that you may need to establish.
00:05:47.380 Like, we don't feed our kids this stuff.
00:05:50.560 If that doesn't apply, maybe it's a certain behavior or conversations that your in-laws might be having with your kids,
00:05:57.440 and that might be a boundary.
00:05:58.600 Like, we don't talk about this stuff with our children.
00:06:02.440 It might also be the way people communicate with you.
00:06:06.100 And I would say this goes in every aspect of every relationship, whether it's a romantic relationship or a friendship or a professional relationship.
00:06:14.360 Let's take a professional relationship, for example.
00:06:16.520 If a client of yours is angry and upset with you because you didn't meet the service on time or it came in over budget and they're having to pay a little bit more than they thought they would,
00:06:28.240 that's one thing.
00:06:28.980 You can have a client who's upset, but if they call and they belittle you and they berate you and they make a big scene,
00:06:35.720 that's a point in time where you would need to establish a boundary.
00:06:39.040 I don't care who it is.
00:06:40.180 Nobody gets to yell at me.
00:06:41.660 And so I tell them, whether it's a romantic relationship or my kids or even a client,
00:06:48.320 hey, we can have these discussions.
00:06:50.540 We can disagree.
00:06:51.980 We can come to some, hopefully, understanding.
00:06:54.460 But the way you're talking to me right now, I won't engage in that conversation.
00:06:59.100 And I don't.
00:07:00.180 I bow out of those conversations gracefully.
00:07:02.320 I'm not going to sling insults back.
00:07:04.120 And then if appropriate, I will come back with the expectation that we're not going to treat each other that way.
00:07:11.220 And that is a huge, huge deal for me.
00:07:14.180 So what boundaries do you have in place and have you clearly communicated them?
00:07:18.380 That was point number one.
00:07:19.800 If you've got boundaries but nobody knows what they are, that's like playing a football game without any sidelines or yard markers.
00:07:27.360 It just won't work.
00:07:29.200 You need to have the sidelines, the yard markers, and the boundaries in place so everybody knows this is the playing field.
00:07:36.960 And this is the parameters in which I, if I want a relationship with you, need to behave and operate.
00:07:44.520 And if you can do that, again, level-headed with tact and class and actually uphold those boundaries when people push on them,
00:07:51.420 either deliberately or unintentionally, you're going to have a lot more respect from people.
00:07:55.960 And again, you're going to be a person who can be counted on when things go wrong.
00:07:59.940 Number three, do not lie.
00:08:02.380 Now, when it comes to the big lies, we know that, right?
00:08:05.320 We know that we shouldn't make up stories and that we shouldn't talk about things that haven't happened.
00:08:11.660 And you understand that.
00:08:13.740 So I'm not going to beat a dead horse on that one.
00:08:15.820 But it's the little lies.
00:08:18.260 And that might be something seemingly insignificant like, what do you want to do tonight?
00:08:24.180 If you have a plan, then just communicate that.
00:08:27.260 If you don't say what you have in mind tonight and you have something in mind, that would be a lie.
00:08:33.420 That's not being true to yourself.
00:08:36.140 If you say you're going to do something and you don't do it, that's a lie.
00:08:40.720 If your wife comes out and she's got two different outfits and wants you to choose one and you know you like one over the other,
00:08:48.220 then it's a lie not to tell her which one you like or say, I don't care.
00:08:52.300 That's not true.
00:08:53.000 If she asks you about her outfit and it isn't your favorite, tread lightly on this one, but you need to tell the truth.
00:09:00.200 That might be something as simple as saying, you know, that isn't my favorite.
00:09:03.560 I like those other jeans better.
00:09:05.420 Now, I know that one's pretty controversial, but I'm telling you, if you can be honest in all of your dealings,
00:09:11.320 people will know they can come to you.
00:09:13.560 They know that if you say something, whether it's I love you or I'm mad at you,
00:09:17.760 but I still am in love with you and or we'll come back to this conversation or that dress doesn't look as flattering as the other one.
00:09:26.760 Or if it's in a professional relationship, telling a client, I can't help you the way that you want to be helped,
00:09:31.580 or this is going to be more expensive or take longer than you think it might.
00:09:36.520 I'm not saying that it's going to be fun or easy to tell the truth in all ways.
00:09:40.440 In fact, it's probably going to frustrate people.
00:09:42.340 But on the other hand, if and when things get rough, whether it's, again, a medical diagnosis or a loss of a loved one
00:09:52.720 or a loss of a job or some hardship that people are dealing, they're always going to know I can turn to him
00:09:58.220 because at least he'll tell me the truth.
00:10:00.800 I may not always like it.
00:10:02.500 I may not always want to hear it, but at least he'll tell me the truth.
00:10:06.720 So take a look in your life and ask yourself where you are being somewhat deceitful,
00:10:11.800 whether it's to others or even yourself, which leads them to my next point, which is honoring your word.
00:10:17.980 Guys, if you say you're going to do something, you have to do it.
00:10:21.640 You have to.
00:10:22.500 Now, there's exceptions to that.
00:10:24.940 I would say if it's a contract, for example, an employment contract,
00:10:28.960 where you are working for a company and they tell you they want you to do X,
00:10:34.000 if you're no longer interested in pursuing that job, you can quit, right?
00:10:38.640 And so that's the distinction.
00:10:39.660 Just because you need to honor your word doesn't mean that you can't quit or be uninterested in something or move into something else.
00:10:49.000 But if it's things that you've committed to people, like I'll help you move this weekend
00:10:53.800 or I'll have this project to you by this day and time
00:10:58.500 or I'll run to the store on the way home and pick up some milk for dinner tonight,
00:11:03.460 then you damn well better do it.
00:11:06.220 And again, the big things are easy because we know the big things matter and they matter to other people.
00:11:11.800 It's the little things that we often overlook or even rationalize and justify and tell ourselves,
00:11:17.960 oh, it's not that big a deal.
00:11:19.740 This time is not that big a deal.
00:11:22.660 They'll let this slip.
00:11:24.560 They might once.
00:11:25.560 They might twice.
00:11:26.320 They might 20 times.
00:11:27.660 But every time you dishonor your word by not keeping your promises,
00:11:33.880 a little bit of trust is undermined with other people.
00:11:38.880 And part of our job as men, in order to be the rock in other people's lives,
00:11:43.700 is to be highly trusted and highly influential.
00:11:47.540 So all of our interactions should be built around establishing and building trust and influence,
00:11:53.160 not undermining it.
00:11:55.020 Now, if certain things come up and certain things happen,
00:11:58.160 then just say that and tell people, this is what happened.
00:12:02.340 You know, even just yesterday, I double booked a meeting.
00:12:05.100 Okay, well, I had to tell one person that I'm sorry, we're going to have to reschedule this.
00:12:10.220 They were gracious with me because it isn't a common occurrence.
00:12:13.620 But that undermined a little bit of trust.
00:12:17.000 Whether I like it or not, it did.
00:12:18.440 So make sure you're honoring your word, you're keeping your commitments,
00:12:22.020 you're doing what you say you will do, or just don't say it.
00:12:25.820 Because if you do, then that's a lie.
00:12:28.160 Point number two, or three, excuse me.
00:12:31.460 All right, let's go to, so we've got four so far.
00:12:34.080 Communicate your desires.
00:12:36.100 Have clear boundaries.
00:12:37.500 Do not lie.
00:12:38.820 Honor your word.
00:12:39.760 Now, number five is keeping yourself emotionally level-headed.
00:12:44.100 When people come to you with problems, whether it's in crisis or something minor,
00:12:49.780 they're going to evaluate, many times subconsciously,
00:12:52.940 how you respond and handle yourself in those situations.
00:12:56.600 And if you lose your cool and you lose your patience or you lose your temper
00:13:00.340 or you get flustered easily or you get frustrated or you yell or berate
00:13:06.120 or resort to name-calling or flip your lid,
00:13:11.380 people aren't going to come to you anymore.
00:13:12.800 They just aren't.
00:13:13.920 Again, to go back to what I was saying about building trust and influence,
00:13:17.160 people want stability.
00:13:19.080 That's what they want out of you, a man, the leader.
00:13:21.780 They want you to be stable.
00:13:23.500 They want to know that when they come to you with an issue,
00:13:28.240 you're going to be able to address the issue with some emotional maturity
00:13:31.520 and level-headedness.
00:13:33.320 If you can't do that and you're volatile and your friends and your family members
00:13:38.240 and your loved ones don't know the kind of person they're going to get
00:13:42.260 based on when they come to you or what they come to you with,
00:13:45.600 they're going to be less likely to come to you in the future.
00:13:49.540 And I talk with many men who question why their people won't come to them for advice
00:13:57.840 or won't talk to them about their problems.
00:14:00.100 Now, I don't know all the dynamics, but one area of consideration is how have you handled
00:14:06.480 those situations before?
00:14:08.480 Maybe your wife comes to you with an issue at work or one of her girlfriends
00:14:12.300 and you've been frustrated today.
00:14:15.300 Maybe you had a long day.
00:14:16.760 You're tired.
00:14:18.080 Maybe you don't even want to hear what she has to say.
00:14:19.960 Instead of being helpful or just listening, you say,
00:14:22.160 I don't want to hear this.
00:14:22.900 This is stupid.
00:14:23.760 Talk to one of your friends about it.
00:14:25.940 You basically told her, don't come talk to you.
00:14:29.180 Or if your kid, one of your kids does something dumb, you know, maybe they,
00:14:32.920 I don't know, they're playing with the iPad and they drop it and it cracks
00:14:37.000 and they come to you to tell you what's wrong and you lose your mind.
00:14:41.460 It's not that they're not going to break things in the future.
00:14:43.680 They're just going to hide it in the future or they're going to be afraid of you.
00:14:47.900 And many of us as fathers have done that and undermined our own credibility,
00:14:52.340 authority, and influence with our children because of it.
00:14:54.640 Always keep a level-headed approach.
00:14:57.660 And if you feel yourself getting heated in the moment,
00:15:00.600 blood boiling a little bit, temperature rising, feeling impatient, feeling frustrated,
00:15:06.060 then just excuse yourself from the moment respectfully and with a little bit of grace.
00:15:12.240 Calm down, go outside, go for a walk, go for a drive, talk with somebody,
00:15:16.660 whatever you need to do to come back to the table with that mature, fatherly, rational, level-headed approach.
00:15:27.900 And if you are that same guy that they expect every time,
00:15:32.620 more likely that they're going to come to you with their issues and trust that you can handle them.
00:15:35.940 Number six, at the end of the day, guys, you just have to make yourself more capable.
00:15:41.500 You know, we're all works in process and we always will be.
00:15:45.160 There's never a point in time where we reach some destination and say,
00:15:48.980 I've arrived, I've made it.
00:15:51.000 I am God's gift to fill in the blank.
00:15:54.100 No, there's always something to learn.
00:15:56.800 There's always something to develop.
00:15:58.440 There's always an avenue to explore.
00:16:00.600 There's always a weakness and a vulnerability that you can shore up.
00:16:04.160 And the question is whether or not you're willing to acknowledge it.
00:16:07.660 Do you know what you're good at?
00:16:09.100 Do you know what you're not good at?
00:16:10.200 Do you know what your people need of you?
00:16:12.940 Without having to ask, can you see?
00:16:15.440 Can you read them?
00:16:16.720 Can you see when they're struggling?
00:16:17.880 Can you see when they're off?
00:16:18.880 Can you see when something around the house needs to be done?
00:16:21.020 Can you see when the new solution needs to be proposed at work?
00:16:24.000 If you can do that and make yourself capable of being the guy who can do it,
00:16:28.320 people are naturally going to come to you.
00:16:30.920 I mean, we all have men like that in our lives.
00:16:32.820 Maybe it's your dad or your grandfather or an uncle or a neighbor
00:16:36.140 where they just seem to know how to do everything.
00:16:39.400 They can fix anything.
00:16:40.760 They can figure anything out.
00:16:42.700 They're great people to talk with.
00:16:44.240 They're very capable.
00:16:45.460 That should be us.
00:16:47.300 We should be that person in somebody else's story
00:16:50.260 where if somebody needs their fence fixed,
00:16:53.260 then they call up me and a neighbor and says,
00:16:56.160 hey, Ryan, I have a question.
00:16:57.060 I'm trying to do this fence
00:16:57.880 and I don't know how to do it.
00:16:58.680 And I should be able to figure that out
00:16:59.980 or already know how to do it.
00:17:02.220 If the toilet breaks in your bathroom,
00:17:05.140 then you don't need to,
00:17:06.700 like you shouldn't have to call a plumber necessarily
00:17:08.700 unless it's some, you know, big deal with the pipes,
00:17:11.620 something outside of your capabilities,
00:17:13.040 but you should be able to know basic plumbing around the house.
00:17:16.460 I was driving down the road a week and a half or two weeks ago
00:17:19.700 and my tire blew out.
00:17:22.440 So I changed the tire.
00:17:24.080 It doesn't sound real exciting until you don't know how to change a tire
00:17:28.340 and there's millions and millions of men who don't know how to change a tire.
00:17:32.740 On a different level, do you know how to communicate effectively?
00:17:35.340 Do you know how to give a sales presentation?
00:17:37.320 Do you know how to ask for a sale or ask for a referral?
00:17:41.020 Do you know how to ask for a raise?
00:17:42.520 Do you know how to do a performance review?
00:17:44.000 Do you know how to interview properly?
00:17:45.500 Do you know how to set goals and achieve goals?
00:17:48.400 Do you have systems for working out and getting fit
00:17:51.380 and building your financial future?
00:17:52.940 If you don't, that's okay,
00:17:55.080 but it's not okay to be like that forever.
00:17:57.900 Make yourself capable in all ways
00:17:59.800 so you're the guy that everybody looks around and says,
00:18:02.100 man, if something goes south or sideways,
00:18:03.980 I want Ryan in my corner.
00:18:06.080 I want Steve or Joe or Bob or whatever in my corner
00:18:09.520 because he's the guy who's going to help me get through this.
00:18:13.160 And do this while things are good.
00:18:16.060 And if things are good, trust me,
00:18:17.780 nothing ever stays the same.
00:18:19.140 So they're going to get worse.
00:18:20.540 You be the guy who can handle it in those moments.
00:18:23.220 And then the last thing I want to share with you guys,
00:18:25.180 and this one's kind of an interesting one,
00:18:26.620 but we should be building our presence.
00:18:29.500 And when I mean presence,
00:18:31.100 what I'm saying is that the way that we show up,
00:18:33.440 we should not show up as bumps on a log.
00:18:37.240 We should not show up severely overweight and obese.
00:18:41.060 We should not show up like slobs.
00:18:42.900 We should not show up unprepared for presentations
00:18:46.560 or unprepared for a dinner conversation
00:18:50.860 with your wife and kids.
00:18:52.220 Like you need to show up powerfully in all ways.
00:18:54.740 If that means you need more rest,
00:18:56.740 if that means you need to take some things off your plate,
00:18:59.520 if that means you need to learn how to dress
00:19:01.580 more appropriately and better for your age,
00:19:04.040 if that means that you need to learn something,
00:19:07.660 if that means you need to lose some weight
00:19:09.280 or build some muscle or change your facial hair
00:19:11.640 or get a haircut or whatever, then do it.
00:19:14.660 Because the way that you present yourself
00:19:16.980 often is going to be the first thing
00:19:20.460 that people are going to see when you walk into a room.
00:19:22.780 And if you look like a slob,
00:19:24.340 people aren't going to treat you anything other than a slob.
00:19:27.680 But if you look like a man who's bold
00:19:30.720 and assertive and courageous and capable
00:19:33.820 and you walk with your shoulders back
00:19:36.020 and your chest out and you're proud of who you are
00:19:38.800 and they can see that you have confidence
00:19:40.160 and you're wearing clothing that fits
00:19:42.220 and looks good for what you're trying to accomplish
00:19:44.420 and you're physically fit and capable,
00:19:46.740 of course, you're the rock.
00:19:49.500 And one thing I've noticed too is
00:19:51.040 when it comes to the protection component
00:19:53.580 of protect, provide, preside,
00:19:54.980 I heard this and I can't remember
00:19:59.080 exactly where I heard it,
00:20:00.180 but they were talking about
00:20:01.380 situational awareness in public.
00:20:03.140 And so if somebody's going to mess with somebody else,
00:20:05.620 they're usually looking for a target.
00:20:07.620 When you show up in a very powerful, present way,
00:20:11.840 your head's not buried in your phone
00:20:13.920 and you're not like wandering around lost
00:20:15.820 or looking confused,
00:20:18.080 you're strong and assertive,
00:20:20.560 shoulders up, chest out, head straight,
00:20:23.320 looking around, not that you're paranoid,
00:20:25.260 but you're aware of the situation,
00:20:27.080 nobody's going to mess with you
00:20:28.160 or at least the likelihood is significantly lower
00:20:30.480 than if you were the opposite.
00:20:32.000 And that's part of your job as a man.
00:20:33.920 When your people are with you,
00:20:35.360 they need to be protected.
00:20:36.720 When you're out with your woman for a night on the town,
00:20:39.140 she needs to be protected.
00:20:40.640 Don't put her in risky situations.
00:20:42.400 Don't put her in potentially bad situations.
00:20:44.440 And part of the way you do that
00:20:45.720 is making yourself a very imposing,
00:20:49.300 intimidating target.
00:20:51.060 Someone that other people look at and say,
00:20:52.780 you know what, I'm not messing with that guy.
00:20:55.000 I'll mess with the guy who comes next.
00:20:57.180 That's what you need to do.
00:20:58.300 So build your presence, look the part,
00:21:00.800 act the part, be the part,
00:21:02.400 and people will see you as the rock in their lives.
00:21:05.740 And at the end of the day,
00:21:06.700 you'll be able to serve the people you love.
00:21:08.380 And isn't that what we want to do?
00:21:09.780 We want to serve the people we love.
00:21:11.740 We care about them.
00:21:13.300 They're important to us and it's our duty.
00:21:15.600 It's your job as a man,
00:21:17.440 partly to make sure they're protected.
00:21:19.840 Let's go through this real quick.
00:21:20.840 Number one, communicate your desires.
00:21:22.740 Number two, have clear boundaries.
00:21:24.860 Number three, do not lie.
00:21:27.000 Four, honor your word.
00:21:28.820 Five, keep yourself emotionally level-headed.
00:21:31.740 Six, become more capable.
00:21:33.500 And seven, build your presence.
00:21:36.120 Men, if I missed anything,
00:21:38.220 reach out to me on Instagram,
00:21:40.140 at Ryan Mickler.
00:21:41.360 That is where I'm most active.
00:21:43.260 And if I see a message come through from you,
00:21:45.400 I'm pretty good about responding over on Instagram.
00:21:48.100 So, hit me up there, again, at Ryan Mickler.
