Humility is a much overlooked concept in modern society. A quick search of humility from Google brings up synonyms like "meekness, lowliness, submission".  Generally speaking, humility is seen as having a low estimate of one's own importance or accomplishments. This is an outdated definition of...

There is a tricky transition from being a boy to becoming a man.  And through this process a lot of men don't make the full journey. Boy psychology is unaware of it's place in society, primarily self-interested, avoidant, and indecisive.  Boys are reactive and thrive in the role of the victim. Man...

Myths about men run rampant in Western society. “Men are liars.” “Men are stupid.” “Men only want one thing.” The only way for true gender equality to surface is to come to a mutual awareness of each other’s struggles and then do our best to shield ourselves from the cultural conditioning and ease...
