This book blows this theory out of the water, enabling men to transform themselves entirely—to find their mission; to live a life of strength, wisdom, and honor—while working with their positive masculinity instead of against it.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eStraight talking, down-to-earth, and humorous life coach David Wagner addresses the challenges that modern men typically face. He asks the reader to join him in a series of profound self-examination exercises and questions covering life purpose, male identity, spirituality, self-limitation, sexuality, relationships, fatherhood, and more. Every chapter offers practical advice and also includes observations and examples from David's own life as well as insights gained from the many clients and men's groups he has worked with over the years.

He had honor, he was able to kick ass when  need be, was kind to his daughters, was a strong husband to his wife,  and got his work done with excellence. All of this, and he set the moral  tone for the family. This is something that rarely happens today. With  the exception of omega males and some traditionally religious men, most  men abdicate moral and spiritual authority to the women in their lives  completely. Many men act as if it is their role to be the 'voice of  reality' in their house. Their women can run off to retreats and study  yoga and chakras and become certified in Reiki, but they think it's a  bunch of baloney.
