Welcome to Man Morning, a weekly newsletter where I provide hard truths about what actually works. No fluff, no theory, no nonsense.
People keep telling me how strong I am.
Based on this newsletter.
Based on social media.
They're not entirely wrong.
Just incomplete.
The internet tells a story.
It could never tell the whole story.
The 3 AM staring at the ceiling.
The insurance calls that never end.
The conversations with my kids that break me...
Some days have been flat out awful.
The moments I've been short with my wife.
When I couldn't remember my phone number.
The numbing lower back pain.
Doing everything not to break down on stage during a keynote.
When the simplest decisions felt impossible...
It isn't the absence of weakness.
It's choosing to continue anyway.
It isn't looking good doing it.
It's just doing it.
One question gets me through each day:
If nothing else gets done today, what will make today a success?
Not ten things.
Just one.
Choose that one thing.
Do it.
And know it's enough.
