Order of Man - What 5 Months of Sobriety Has Taught Me ｜ 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

00:00:04.940 your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time, every time.

00:00:10.300 You are not easily deterred or defeated, rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life. This is who

00:00:17.000 you are. This is who you will become. At the end of the day, and after all is said and done,

00:00:22.480 you can call yourself a man. Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan Michler.

00:00:27.360 I'm the host and the founder of the Order of Man podcast and movement. Welcome here today.

00:00:31.980 I'm going to have a sensitive discussion with you guys today, not one that I am particularly

00:00:37.160 thrilled about, but I think it's one that needs to be had. I'm going to talk with you about my

00:00:42.180 battle with alcoholism and what I've been doing over the past five months now to remain sober and

00:00:49.420 attempt as best I can to clean up my life. I want to share this with you because that is the goal

00:00:54.480 of the podcast, is to share things that are working, to share even in our struggles, what we're

00:00:59.920 doing to overcome our demons and our battles. I have them just as much, if not more, than any other

00:01:06.200 man out there. I figured if I can share what has worked for me and what hasn't worked and be real

00:01:12.380 and honest with you, then maybe that will help you to some degree as you battle your own demons,

00:01:18.320 whether that's alcoholism or drug addiction or any number of things that it could be that's going

00:01:25.160 wrong in your life. We're here to support each other. That's why it's called the order,

00:01:29.440 the order of man. We're trying to help each other, serve each other, promote each other,

00:01:32.960 lift each other up. And I appreciate you being on this journey with me.

00:01:36.120 Before I get into the conversation today, I just want to let you know again that I am thankful and

00:01:40.400 I am glad that you're tuning in. And I ask that you support what we're doing as we're rolling into

00:01:44.740 2023. This is going to be a big year for us, a lot of changes, but also a lot of opportunity for

00:01:50.420 growth and expansion that comes with changes. And if you would, please support. Best way to do that

00:01:56.480 is number one, leave an iTunes rating and review. That'll take you two minutes, jump on, leave a

00:02:01.300 rating, leave a review, and that actually boosts up the visibility for the podcast on the charts.

00:02:07.020 So leave a review. And then also check out our store. We've got our inventory. It's our shirts,

00:02:11.960 our hats, our battle planner, which is our number one selling product. I want to check that out.

00:02:15.920 If you're trying to plan for 2023, you can check that out at a store.orderofman.com. Almost forgot

00:02:23.140 the website there. It's store.orderofman.com. Two great ways, simple ways to support what we're

00:02:27.900 doing. And we're going to have events coming out. Iron Council is closed, but it will be open in the

00:02:32.400 spring. So we've got some other announcements coming down the pike. All right, guys, let's get into it.

00:02:36.020 This is lessons learned from my five months of sobriety. First, I want to say that I know

00:02:41.840 five months isn't a long time. It doesn't seem like a long time. To me anyways, it seems like

00:02:46.980 I actually don't consider it some great achievement because it really isn't for me. And I'm speaking

00:02:53.760 for myself. All of you guys have other experiences, other beliefs. Many of you have messaged me and

00:02:59.600 told me about your battles with alcoholism. And I'm not going to knock or diminish any of your

00:03:04.320 experience. All I'm doing is sharing what it is for me. I don't consider five months to be

00:03:08.660 some large grand number of sobriety, but I have learned some things over the past half

00:03:14.080 year now. And hopefully it'll serve you. So number one is that rock bottom, you reach rock

00:03:22.360 bottom when you stop digging the hole that you're in right now. A lot of people will say,

00:03:28.600 I've reached the bottom, I've reached the bottom, but they'll continue the same behavior. And in that

00:03:32.280 case, you have not reached the bottom yet. The bottom is when you stop digging. And the bottom

00:03:36.560 for me was when I decided that I'm going to stop drinking and I'm going to start doing better

00:03:42.900 behavior, start engaging in things that are actually positive and encouraging and uplifting

00:03:46.680 for me. Whereas before I noticed that there was a problem. I saw that I was depressed. I saw that

00:03:52.580 I was down. I saw that I was impacting my family and my friends and community members. I saw all of

00:03:57.120 that. And yet I kept engaging in the same behavior that was producing those results.

00:04:02.320 And so even though I felt like I was in this miserable pit, I was exacerbating the problem

00:04:09.500 by continuing to dig with the same behavior. So if you're telling yourself that you're at rock

00:04:15.900 bottom, but you're still exhibiting the same thoughts, behaviors, patterns, then you're not

00:04:22.680 at rock bottom. But the beautiful thing about being at rock bottom is that you can decide when that

00:04:28.060 is. Yes. I know there's outside circumstances that take place, but the minute you stop the

00:04:33.080 behaviors and you introduce new behaviors is the minute that you start crawling out of that hole.

00:04:39.980 And that's where I am right now. I'm still quite a ways down the hole, but I'm crawling out and I

00:04:46.180 feel pride and I feel proud and I feel excited about the opportunities in the midst of other things that

00:04:50.220 are going on because I can see that I can at least see the light at the top of the hole that I've dug

00:04:55.600 myself in. And I'm actively working on getting there. So for me, five months ago, that was rock

00:05:01.520 bottom. That was the moment of truth. That was the moment that I could decide, all right, do I

00:05:06.060 continue down this path? Do I continue destroying my body and my health and the relationships? Or do I

00:05:12.760 decide, okay, you're going to stop, you're going to do a new set of behaviors and a new way of living

00:05:17.520 and dig yourself out of that hole. And that was rock bottom for me.

00:05:20.440 Number two, and these aren't in any particular order, but I realized that I have a lot of emotions

00:05:27.760 that are residing inside of me that I was not aware of. Anger, resentment, frustration, sadness,

00:05:39.020 sorrow, loneliness, a lot of emotional buildup over years and years, 40 years of living my life that

00:05:46.740 I was able to avoid. I was able to hide. I was able to bury. And then I was sedating myself through

00:05:53.520 alcohol. So anytime any one of those emotions or any bad feeling came up, it was alcohol. But what

00:05:58.900 was interesting is that the alcohol made my anger and my frustration and these types of things even

00:06:04.540 worse. So I may have attempted to free myself from the burden of those emotions, but the people around

00:06:13.000 me were not free of that because it magnified the problem. And now that I'm five months sober,

00:06:19.660 I can see a lot differently. And I can see that there are a lot of emotions in myself that need

00:06:27.800 to be addressed that I haven't dealt with. And part of that is through my journaling. Part of that is

00:06:33.100 through working with a therapist. Part of that is through my AA meetings and just being more reflective,

00:06:40.380 but also allowing myself to experience those emotions. This morning, for example, I was very

00:06:49.040 sad this morning because of what's been going on in my life. And before I think I would have either

00:06:56.660 drank the sadness away temporarily or I would have tried to bury it. But this morning, I decided to

00:07:05.380 experience and feel those emotions and let those emotions out in a constructive way. And I don't

00:07:12.220 need to be blabbering to you guys, blabbering to my family or crying like a fool in front of everybody. 0.83

00:07:17.020 But you know what? I can experience those emotions so I can release that. If you want more information

00:07:22.120 on some of this stuff, Jason Wilson, he has a book called Cry Like a Man. Very, very interesting read.

00:07:29.560 I had him on the podcast a while back and he talks a lot about this. He's become a good friend of mine

00:07:34.660 and we've had some good discussion. But I need to continue to work through those emotions. And I'm

00:07:41.380 sure that you do as well. And using alcohol or drugs or pornography or gambling or womanizing or

00:07:48.140 whatever your vice of choice is, is not an effective way to deal with it. It may feel better for a time,

00:07:54.080 but it will get worse. And you're not even in the position to acknowledge it if you're drunk or stoned or high.

00:07:59.560 Number three, I was really good at hiding. I was good at hiding the behavior from other people.

00:08:09.100 I mean, I can't tell you how many messages that I received and guys were like, Hey, I had no idea.

00:08:12.960 I had no idea. I would never would have guessed that. Right. That was the point. I didn't want

00:08:17.540 anybody else to know because I considered it a weakness. And I actually still do consider it a

00:08:23.320 weakness. I know that people will say, well, you know, it's a disease and alcohol,

00:08:29.460 has control over you. And you're just doomed to be an alcoholic. I don't buy that. I personally do

00:08:35.840 not buy into that. I am not going to identify with being an alcoholic. This is not something I'm going

00:08:41.700 to do. Now I know I'm susceptible to alcohol. I know that there's something about my physiology

00:08:47.060 or my mindset that allows me or makes me compulsive that I go all in on things that I don't do anything

00:08:57.400 in moderation, not just drinking, but doing this podcast or any number of things. It could be

00:09:03.000 when I go, I go all in. And I was really good at hiding how bad it had gotten from other people.

00:09:11.960 Yes. But also from myself. And that's one of the things that was very valuable for me to learn is

00:09:18.300 that I am good. Just like I imagine most of you are very good at hiding the problems,

00:09:28.120 very good at tricking ourselves into believing something that really isn't true or even painting

00:09:36.560 ourselves better than maybe really ought to be doing. And I now realize that as I lied to myself

00:09:47.640 about, Oh, I'm not an alcoholic, or even if I am, I'm a high functioning alcoholic. And now I realize

00:09:53.640 because I was pulling the wool over my eyes the whole time that I was really, really struggling,

00:09:58.900 really, really struggling. And I need to be vigilant about not hiding from the painful truth of life

00:10:09.140 and where I'm short and where I fall short and where I'm not doing well. And it is painful.

00:10:13.960 That goes back to the emotional side of things I talked about a minute ago.

00:10:17.640 But again, I want to experience that. I want to embrace that because I do want to feel those

00:10:21.180 emotions and I want to process those emotions and I don't want to hide anymore.

00:10:25.260 I think it's Jordan Peterson who talks about bringing your demons or bringing the problem

00:10:30.460 to light. It cannot exist in light. It can exist in darkness, but it can't exist in light.

00:10:37.840 So if we start to bring these things to light and have conversations about them, I mean,

00:10:41.360 that's the interesting thing about this is as I've shared this battle, this struggle of mine,

00:10:45.420 thousands and thousands of men, hundreds and hundreds of messages and emails and DMs from

00:10:53.300 guys who have told me that they're experiencing the same thing. And nobody knows guys, we got to

00:10:58.460 get this stuff out in the open and we have to have an outlet to be able to share these things in a

00:11:01.980 constructive way so that we can bring them to light. And like a vampire, it will burn and destroy

00:11:08.380 that deficiency. Number four, I think I'm on is I now realize that I am this, this sounds obviously

00:11:20.060 narcissistic, but I am pretty incredible in a lot of ways. I know that, I know that might sound weird

00:11:28.660 when I, when I say that, um, again, narcissistic or ego driven, but what I, what I realized is that

00:11:35.920 even though I was drunk just about every day and wasting probably three to four to five hours per

00:11:45.440 day, either drinking, being drunk or being hung over that I was able to still get a lot done.

00:11:51.660 I was still able to lead the family to some degree. I was still able to run this business.

00:11:56.820 Obviously there was a lot of things that was still able to do. And now that I've been sober for five

00:12:03.360 months, I realized how much time and energy and resources were being wasted, being thrown away on

00:12:09.720 being drunk, getting drunk or being hung over. And when I, that, that first, I would say three to four

00:12:16.640 weeks of being sober, my, my production skyrocketed. I mean, it went through the roof. And I wondered why

00:12:24.840 that was even my daughter. She said to me, she says, dad, how come you're getting all these projects

00:12:28.940 done? Or how are you getting all these projects done? And I, you know, I didn't explain this, the entire

00:12:34.700 thing to her because she's not at that age where it would make sense. But, uh, to me, the answer was

00:12:41.080 clear. I just recaptured three to five hours per day, every day. And now I'm being productive with

00:12:47.340 it. And what I've seen over the past, I would say three to four weeks now is hyper involvement with

00:12:56.040 the family. I've been putting in less work, but getting more done. Uh, I've been hyper engaged with

00:13:01.420 my family. I I'm doing drawing with my kids, doing Legos, you know, even just running errands and doing

00:13:07.080 chores around town. It's, it's pretty incredible. And it makes me wonder when I said that I'm pretty

00:13:13.840 incredible. It makes me wonder how much farther I would have been had the last two years been dry,

00:13:20.480 had been sober. Where would I be if I didn't give away three to five hours of every single day to some

00:13:28.000 vice that didn't not just not serve me. It was destroying me. And now that I've recaptured that,

00:13:35.540 I feel like I'm back on the path and I'm energetic and I'm optimistic and I'm hopeful about what we can

00:13:40.160 accomplish because we have all that time, energy, and resources. Next one, guys. Alcohol does not make

00:13:47.580 me a better person. It doesn't make me better at anything. And I used to tell myself that it did.

00:13:54.740 I actually believe that drinking helped me to be a better podcaster because I could be more loose.

00:14:02.280 I could be more relaxed. I could, you know, have a, have a different kind of conversation.

00:14:07.340 Maybe it was social lubricant as we hear a different kind of conversation than normally

00:14:11.480 I could have. I tend to be somebody who's pretty high, strong and on edge quite a bit. That's my

00:14:16.760 personality. And I felt like alcohol was letting me relax and letting loose and that the podcast

00:14:23.140 conversations would be more enjoyable for you and more enjoyable for me and my guest. So that was one

00:14:28.400 area that I felt like, Hey, this makes me better. I mean, even, I even told myself in my family life,

00:14:32.960 it makes me better because I'm not so high, strong, and I'm not putting so much pressure

00:14:36.480 on everybody to perform and to do the things that I want them to do in the way that I want them to do it.

00:14:42.660 And what I didn't see is that I was actually creating a lot of animosity and contention

00:14:47.380 within the family dynamic because of my behavior, not in spite of it.

00:14:52.820 So I've come to realize that alcohol does not make me better. And yet I will say,

00:14:59.700 knowing all of this, that there are times that I'm still tempted to drink.

00:15:06.060 Knowing all of this that I'm sharing, I've got four or five other things I wanted to share with

00:15:09.160 you that I am still tempted to drink. And I realized how vile alcohol is. And I realized how

00:15:14.520 damaging and destructive it is. And I realized what it can do to me and other people. And yet I'm still

00:15:19.340 tempted at times to drink. It's, it is ridiculously addicting and tempting for me.

00:15:30.700 So I've come to the realization that I want to be honest about it and it doesn't make me better.

00:15:36.900 It makes me worse. It makes me a worse human being. I lose inhibition. Uh, I, I become emotionally

00:15:45.220 compromised. And of course that leads to disastrous results. Uh, the next one guys, number six, I think

00:15:52.720 we're on is that people appreciate transparent leadership. So I shared this months ago with the

00:16:01.500 iron council. Many of you guys are in the iron council or you're aware of the iron council.

00:16:04.920 I shared this, uh, in a video that I did with the iron council, uh, before I shared it to the public

00:16:11.180 because I felt like they needed to know as quickly as I could tell them. And I was so nervous sharing

00:16:18.780 this with them. I thought people would leave the iron council in droves and I'd get hate mail and

00:16:24.360 hostility. And I probably will at times get some of that. Um, you know, there was certainly an

00:16:30.420 undermining of my leadership or an undermining of my influence. And I can understand that, but I thought

00:16:37.060 this could potentially be done, not just iron council, but order them in. And what I've realized

00:16:43.480 is that people appreciate transparent leadership, not just leading other people, but in me leading

00:16:50.160 myself is that if I can be honest with myself about my shortcomings and my wrongdoings, people

00:16:57.460 appreciate that because it's more relatable. They see themselves in that person who's deciding to be

00:17:03.440 transparent. You know, we spent an inordinate amount of time hiding from other people, hiding from

00:17:10.160 our own vices, hiding from looking foolish. And I get why we do that, but I don't believe that we as

00:17:24.300 leaders need to be afraid of being transparent. And I'll add this caveat that you're actually doing

00:17:30.020 something about it. Because if I just came and I just blurted out all of my problems and all of

00:17:35.100 my baggage and nothing in my life was changing, that's not leadership. I'm certainly not leading

00:17:40.380 myself, certainly not going to have the capacity to lead other people. But what is leadership is

00:17:46.900 realizing that you have a problem, admitting that you have a problem, and then dealing with the problem

00:17:51.640 head on. So when we go and communicate our shortcomings and deficiencies with people, we also

00:17:56.980 communicate our plan. And we don't just communicate it. We let them experience it. We let them feel it.

00:18:02.180 We let them see it. It's not just about hearing. It's about seeing and experiencing the changes that

00:18:09.140 you're making. I get messages from you guys who say, hey, your message has changed for the better.

00:18:14.720 You look lighter. You look more focused. You look more determined.

00:18:18.160 That's because they know that it isn't just talk. It's actually physically manifesting itself. The

00:18:27.080 changes are physically manifesting themselves because I am doing the work to improve. So it

00:18:32.400 isn't just about transparency and just blurting out all your baggage. It's about doing something about

00:18:36.380 it. Number seven, I've learned that trust is very, very easy to destroy and infinitely harder to

00:18:45.560 rebuild. So it's best not to do things that make you diminish trust from other people because it is

00:18:56.880 very, very difficult to rebuild. And again, it can't just be lip service. They can't just hear, oh, I'm

00:19:01.560 going to change. I'm going to do better. I'm going to do this and this and this and that. They don't

00:19:04.260 believe you. People don't believe you. And quite honestly, they didn't believe me. And they have no

00:19:10.140 reason to. Why? Why would somebody believe me? Why would my older two who know about the problem,

00:19:17.200 why would they believe me if all I do is say I'm going to change? Why would my wife believe me?

00:19:22.160 Why would you guys believe me if I just say I'm going to change? That's what I hoped. I said,

00:19:28.820 hey, you know, I thought, hey, if I tell them this stuff and I come clean and I tell them what I'm going

00:19:33.140 to do, then, then, you know, we can just wash our hands and start all over again. No, it's not how it

00:19:37.800 works. You may never rebuild certain aspects of your life to the degree that they were before,

00:19:44.200 which is obviously painful and another emotional outlet that you need to deal with.

00:19:52.920 But you have to be patient. I'm trying to be patient. It's been five months. I feel like that's

00:19:59.560 a long five months because it's been a long five months for me. It's not long enough. It's not that

00:20:07.220 long in the grand scheme of things. And what we do over time to erode and destroy trust, like I said,

00:20:14.640 may never be fully repaired. And if it is, it's going to take a very, very long time of not just

00:20:19.600 your words, but more importantly, our actions. And so that's why I'm trying to walk a different path

00:20:24.780 and not explain necessarily that path to everybody. I don't owe everybody an explanation.

00:20:30.440 There's only so many times I can apologize to people that I've hurt. There's, there's,

00:20:34.640 there's only so much I can do with my mouth. And now I'm kind of the point where I've attempted to

00:20:42.700 make amends where I can. And I'm at the point now where I have to let my deeds do the talking

00:20:47.860 slowly, but surely rebuild the trust brick by brick, and we'll get there. And if we don't

00:20:54.620 with certain relationships or certain aspects of our lives, we'll be able to move forward in

00:21:00.120 confidence, knowing that we did all we could to change and grow and improve and become better.

00:21:04.120 It isn't that the purpose of being here on this planet to improve, to grow, to get better.

00:21:08.280 Number eight, your course of action or mine anyways, will change when the pain of the current reality

00:21:22.480 that you've put yourself in is greater than the struggle of change.

00:21:30.920 Because if the struggle is harder than what you're currently dealing with, you'll, you'll never deal

00:21:35.200 with it because we don't want to struggle. We don't want to go through hardship. We don't want

00:21:39.980 to face the consequences of our choices and our decisions. I don't want to, but I realized I have

00:21:45.700 to, and I'm going to try to stand there with my eyes and head up and accept those consequences like a

00:21:51.440 man and then learn and grow from those things. Uh, and it's been painful. And as much as I don't want

00:22:01.400 to experience that pain, I'm also pretty grateful for it because it's hard for me to imagine

00:22:06.580 five months later, knowing the trajectory I was on, it's hard for me to imagine what life would look

00:22:16.120 like today, five months later. And the catalyst for this is my wife coming and talking with me and

00:22:22.900 having a very difficult, challenging, and serious discussion to finally wake me up to what was going

00:22:30.480 on. And it was painful. And that pain was so great that I decided, okay, well, I'm going to struggle

00:22:36.560 then because I'd rather struggle than go through the pain we're talking about. So don't run away from

00:22:45.100 the pain. Don't, don't hide from it. Embrace it as hard as it is. Embrace it because that means you're

00:22:51.840 changing. That means you're growing. It means you're evolving. It means you're getting better. It means

00:22:55.280 you're putting yourself on a different path, a different trajectory of life. Because if I stayed

00:23:00.680 where I was, I can't imagine, like I told you a minute ago where I'd be now, but I really can't

00:23:05.040 imagine if I stay on the path I'm on right now, where I'll be in five more years, in 10 more years,

00:23:10.620 what life will look like because of the new trajectory that I've put myself on.

00:23:16.460 Pain is not always a bad thing. Can be, but really it's just there to tell you something's wrong.

00:23:22.580 Something's off, whether that's physical pain, you put your hand on a hot stove, you move it

00:23:26.860 pretty quickly because it burns. And that pain causes you to change your direction, but it also

00:23:32.540 could be emotional pain. You are going to experience devastating hardship if you don't change. Don't

00:23:40.520 want to deal with that, but it's good. We do because it puts us on a new path. And the last one today,

00:23:45.440 guys, I think I'm counting here. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Oh, I got it off there.

00:23:50.740 So that last one was eight. This one is nine. The last one I wanted to share with you today is that

00:23:59.740 I've allowed the spirit of God back into my life. I think, I think God was always present.

00:24:09.300 I think it was very difficult for me to hear it, to hear that voice, to hear or feel and experience

00:24:15.380 that presence. I don't think I really wanted to actually. And I think I drowned it out with alcohol

00:24:23.500 and having the spirit of God back in my life has given me hope and optimism in some dark times and

00:24:33.040 some challenging and difficult struggles. And I hear it more clearly. And it gives me

00:24:42.860 comfort, but also better direction, better guidance, better counsel to be able to move my path

00:24:52.440 in the right direction. And then also the path of the people that I meant to serve, my wife,

00:24:58.020 my kids, you guys, people who are listening, people who are in the iron council, neighbors,

00:25:03.380 friends, family members. If I have his spirit in my life and I don't sedate it and I don't drown it

00:25:10.420 out and I listen to it. And most importantly, I act upon it. I will move everything, the entire needle

00:25:16.960 in the right direction. Lots of other lessons to learn here, guys, but I wanted to share this with

00:25:23.800 you because, well, it's not really about me. I'm just sharing this with you, my story, because I

00:25:32.780 think it will serve you. I think it will help you. I'm not sure if it's alcoholism or drugs or

00:25:39.120 some other addiction or some other vice that you have that you are dealing with. I don't know what

00:25:44.300 it is for you. I just know that there's a path forward. There's a better path forward. And if you're

00:25:51.300 in hardship and despair and emotional sorrow and toil, man, I understand. I really do. I've been

00:25:58.420 there. I'm there right now. I told you one of the first ones, the first one, rock bottom. Yeah,

00:26:03.740 I hit rock bottom, but I'm not out of the hole yet. I still got to dig. I still got to scrape. I

00:26:09.320 still got to fight. And so you and I, we're in the hole that we dug together. Maybe I'm a little

00:26:15.340 farther ahead of some of you. Maybe I'm a little further behind than some of you. It doesn't really

00:26:19.120 matter. The guy ahead of me should help me out. I should help the guy behind me. You should help

00:26:24.500 the guy behind you. This is how it works. This is what men do. We lead ourselves to the capacity

00:26:30.620 that we can so that we are in a greater, much more abundant, prosperous position to help and serve

00:26:38.460 other people. So this message is not about me. I'm sharing my experience so that you will have some

00:26:44.740 hope and optimism and a clear path forward for yourself. All right, guys, I hope that helps.

00:26:50.000 If you have any other thoughts or considerations or questions or anything, let me know. I'm very

00:26:54.400 active on Instagram at Ryan Mickler. We're going to be building out the YouTube channel. We've got some

00:27:00.180 new things coming that are going to help us build out the YouTube channel and Rumble channel a little

00:27:05.360 bit better. So stay tuned for that. We've got, I think, 200 and I don't know, 70,000 subscribers or so

00:27:11.300 on YouTube. We're going to build that out. And we've got some big things happening in 2023. I will

00:27:17.460 say the silver lining of this is, and there are going to be a lot of silver linings that come from

00:27:25.280 this, is that I can relate a whole lot better with a whole lot more of you that are going through the

00:27:31.400 same thing. And that makes me grateful because God's put me in a position to serve. That's not

00:27:37.440 comfortable. I don't like it. I'd rather not be here, but I'm here and he has put me in the position

00:27:42.560 to serve. So let's serve each other. Let's help each other. All right, guys, I'll be back next week.

00:27:48.620 Until then, go out there, take action, become a man you are meant to be. Thank you for listening to

00:27:53.500 the Order of Man podcast. If you're ready to take charge of your life and be more of the man you were

00:27:58.380 meant to be, we invite you to join the order at orderofman.com.
