Thanked: 267As a man you are the captain of your own ship. You are responsible for all that goes on in your ship. Pick you crew carefully because when judgment day comes you will be judged by the company you have kept.
Take Care,
Richard

I don't know if this necessarily applies just to being a man but,
Always remember that there is a tomorrow, so don't waste time getting stuck in today.
I know that around here, boys growing into men forget who or what they are and what they can become, don't realize their potential. They get fixed on little things that can ruin a day but not a life, and pick at them until they grow into something they feel they can't handle.
I don't think we are handed any trials that are physically impossible for us to overcome. As men we need to learn to overcome these trials, even if it takes days, or even years. We need to be humble enough to ask for help when needed, and we need to remember that not everything will always be alright.

Be as comfortable with yourself when you are alone as you are when you are with others.
Words I forgot for a while, but have shaped me all the same.

Thanked: 143The Man In The Glass
When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day,
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself,
And see what THAT man has to say.
For it isn't your father or mother or wife
Who judgment upon you must pass;
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass.
Some people may think you a straight-shootin' chum
And call you a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
He's the fellow to please, never mind all the rest
For he's with you clear up to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the man in the glass.
