Thoughts on Becoming a Proper Kind of Man

[@thurlravenscroft2572]

When I joined the military, I was astounded at the number of guys that didn’t know how to do anything. They couldn’t work with tools, didn’t know anything about cars, couldn’t cook, clean, balance a checkbook the list goes on. I had to ask one of them why they didn’t know how to do anything. The answer I got was: “I didn’t have anyone to teach me.” So, I think a big part of being a good man, is teaching young men how to do stuff and how to live and work in society.

[@haruhana1743]

Now, I'm terrible at arithmetic. I struggle with remembering numbers - which is kinda key to the whole thing... So I started imagining those folks on the road screaming at me while I try to do math.

[@realyopikechannel]

the way i look at it most people today aren't good at all. its kinda like all you wouldn't think of an older person as being stupid for not knowing how to use an iPhone. it was never taught to them they didnt grow up with it and it came around when they were past their prime. you don't consider a young person smart for knowing how to use iPhone because they grew up with it its all they know. same with morals, they were taught this ultra moralistic view of the world and they've never known anything else. they assume they are good people because they are just inherently good, the reality is they would be whoever they were raised to be, if they were born in Nazi Germany they most likely woulda been a Nazi. if born in the American south at the right time most of them wouldn't have thought twice about owning slaves. this is true of almost every person, but it seems so many people refuse to accept this reality. this is why stuff like moral philosophy or religion or spiritualism or family values or just anything that grounds you morally is so essential, without it we can stray so far from being anything resembling "good".

Hubby and I married after dating for only 6 weeks, and no we didn't know each other before that either, we did live in the same small community but didn't know each other. In that 6 weeks we talked about what our marriage was going to be like, I wasn't going to volunteer each other to do things, for each others parent. That causes a lot of discourse. But the best thing you can do in any relationship, talk about what you expect, and what you want from that relationship.

To that end, make yourself as tolerable as you possibly can. And overall, get to know God. No matter what you are able to accomplish by your sheer will, it will amount to nothing in the end if you reject Him. Make no mistake, the war on common sense and decency that is going on today is directed at the person of God & His image reflected in His creation, particularly mankind.

That's all you need to do. Anyone telling you that you should be doing this or that by this age, or certain material things to acquire "to be successful" is selling something. Explore, discover, create, help along the way. The rest will take care of itself.

[@wesscotchdog9078]

I don't envy you. I'm 2 decades older than you, so I grew up in a different age. One of skepticism and self education. I have, in the last 5 years, lost much of my material wealth due to the oppressive times we live in. I would not trade that for subservience to evil.

[@DisfiguredGaming]

@@bikerbobcat I can't thank you enough. My birthday is due in a few days and I have been terrified. I will be 27, and your comment couldn't help enough. "The path is the point" brought me to tears and I felt sort of realisation, looked up from my phone and just gazed Infront of me while little details I've missed for years rushed towards me. Everything was suddenly fascinating beyond imagination and while I was weeping I really felt that there's no destination to be reached and you gave my whole soul comfort.

You have shown wisdom in your words and actions. Life was meant to be enjoyed through experiences not the accumulation of things. Cheers to you mate

I love listening to your channel and before this video I had so much stress and when i started watching over a year ago and I did exactly this I moved away from my busy life and got back on a ranch moved into the Middle of nowhere got rid of the small town talk and life is so much better iver worked on this ranch about six months now and my bad days havent been bad. No stress relaxing and havent worked a day since I started this ridding job so thank you Dwayne!!!!!!

[@BiblicalExcerpts]

So much valuable information for the betterment of people in such a short (relatively speaking) video. Thank you for sharing such videos DeWayne.

The talking all the time part I am learning. I’ve always had some social anxiety although it’s gotten better over the years. I’m 23 and just now learning to keep my mouth shut. I guess I have a habit of not liking awkward silence so I fill it with talking. But I’ve learned the more I talk especially at work the more in trouble I get with others. Not because of drama but because I accidentally give people ammo to use against me because I reveal myself too much. So I’m working on shutting my mind down and being calm.

[@hope2029]

JDS you are very wise to learn now rather than......'never' for some people! 🙂 Best to you in all you pursue.

Silence is golden

You can be any way you choose!! U will find ur way into strong confidence 😊

I am from the deep south and moved to california as a young adult. I've always kept my morals and values close to me but it has become an anger and I feel at war with everyone around me. I'm far more angry now than i ever was. Not at myself but the world i live in. But what I'm saying is thank you for reminding me what my roots consist of. I needed to hear this because I am going radically right in a radically left state when i should just be my own man.

[@vklnew9824]

Why did you move from the south to this deteriorating state?

[@raularmas317]

May I recommend that you consider letting go of the Smartphone and return to using a flip phone. Declare yourself on a Fast of the news. Stop looking at the news for 30 days. Then on day 31 check in with yourself and ask yourself how your really feeling. My hope and belief(if you've stayed away from the news) is that you'll feel a good deal calmer. In today's world with a 24/7 news cycle we have to make more conscious choices about how much "bad news" we let into our lives. My definition of Bad News= News about situations you can't do anything about.

[@DavidWilliams-pb6he]

It is the result of moving to a very toxic, fake environment.

[@davighidetti8947]

The world is crooked, and we don't belong here. We are from somewhere else, like Jesus said

[@only_he_stands_there762]

We are in this world, not of it.

[@blackrook1]

Listening to you on this topic is like a well-needed Sunday sermon, without the preaching. Thank you so much!

[@matheuszucco9933]

I'm from Brazil and I will watch this video again and again until I understand all your wisdom. Thanks for yours advices I will listen to them while I am learning English too.

[@benkennelly1871]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I’m 25 and struggle with feeling lost at times. I admire your wisdom and insight and am working on being a better man each day

[@yankeedogg2212]

I can’t imagine being 25 years old in today’s setting and trying to be a good man. The fact that your here, watching this video is an indication you’re on the right road. Stay strong and never give up. God Bless

[@Muircure]

I am also 25 and seeking peace, calm and clarity in life and have been thrown off for years needing help badly thank you for sharing.

[@zachsmith5877]

You hit the "be calm" part on the head of the nail for me with the job description and the music. I used to listen to Scarlxrd 24 hours a day, and he is literally the opposite of calm lol. He still has his time and place in my life but I've been listening to older country more and more lately. Just found this channel, I'm a big Jordan Peterson fan too so hearing you say his name was cool. I appreciate your advice!

[@kdubs3]

This one really made an impression on me --- still thinking about it a few days after seeing it. The point on calmness is one I've never heard before and it is so true. Living in Los Angeles it's easy to ignore that one but it's such an important part of self-development.

[@chanlrrr]

I cant begin to tell you how simplistic messages like these make sense to young men, its almost as if you are talking to us as your younger self and know what we are going through. I appreciate you for making this channel and opening up to us about your personal experiences because this is what we have been looking for , God Bless

[@alittleofthisandthat8003]

Watched my step father get killed in front of me 24 years ago and sometimes it feels like we were just talking yesterday. I tried to model him for my entire teens and young adulthood but I could never really be him. It destroyed me that I could never seem to reach that goal. He was one of those people that left a hole in the local community when he passed, they shut down local business for the funeral and people just couldn't believe he was gone. He was just a average working man but one of those that effected everyone he came in contact with and don't mess with his family. That hole never goes away or gets filled. I understand what this man is saying 100%

[@robvernachio8290]

This is outstanding as usual Dewayne. I used to be the super high stress guy, lacked patience, was always agitated & elevated. Now that I work with horses daily I’ve definitely “ found my calm” my wonderful wife of 29 years is so shocked at the man I’ve become

[@Brien92]

I’ve always said, when I die if my family can write on my headstone “here lies a good man” then I lived a proper life. That is all I need.

[@orebbeccap4119]

If you dont mind, I'd like to share the Gospel with you since I love for you to make it to the kingdom of heaven. You seem like a lovely person and I just love to share it with you. God created the universe and earth in his divine image along with that he created man and women. Adam and Eve who we're were the first people to live along side him in harmony. But when man was tempted and ate of the fruit of God and evil we lost everything and sin came into the world through them. God seeing man fall into such despair and destruction through our sins, later on made Jesus christ in order to teach us his ways in order to reach his kingdom. Jesus died the death we all deserved but he was the sacrifice that played a role in order to have all our sins forgiven by God and no longer have the need to sacrifice animal's in that place. Jesus laid dead for 3 days and rose up in the 3rd day by the spirit of God proving that the sacrifice was accepted. If we choose to believe and accept jesus christ as your lord and savior, your sins will be forgiven and you will rejoice in paradise along side him in heaven.
