Well, how about, what about the men who don't like who they see in the mirror? The men who the world say aren't attractive.
Exactly.
That's cool.
It's a process again. So I'm just taking you through the journey of the characteristics. That's why I close with now is time for you to take the steps to go on, go beyond this point.
And so even in that one chapter, even about being in social settings, because I also teach dining etiquette in that chapter, the gentleman, because so many men do not know how to dine in public settings and are intimidated by that. And so I teach men, this is short course, what I teach the boys in the cave of Adelam, how to dine at a table, how to enter and exit a table.
And so those things are very crucial, especially if you're dating someone or a job interviewer. trying to make a great impression for an investor. I've had kids who are in college now who've gotten scholarships off of the way they can hold their fork and knife. Why, seriously.
I've gotten text messages, Mr. Wilson, you were right, I got a $2,000 scholarship or a $15,000 scholarship because of the way I conducted myself at the table. So how many men like myself, I created that dining etiquette training because I was embarrassed by my father. We went out to eat one day. I had no idea. I was a little eighth grader, you know. Actually, I was in eighth grade.
I love my favorite restaurant at the time was Red Lobster. So I was eager to eat shrimp and I'm eating with my hands. Didn't have the napkin in my lap. My father didn't teach me. So when he dropped me off at home because my parents were divorced, I thought everything was cool. But maybe 10 minutes later, I hear my mother arguing with him. I asked her what happened.
She said, he was mad at me for not teaching you how to dine at a restaurant. And that scarred me. Wow. Because he didn't tell me that. And so I vowed, I said, you know what, I'm going to make sure that no boy has to go through what I went through. And then come to find out when I talked to their fathers about it, because they watched the process as well. I said, man, I didn't know that.
That's why I'm nervous when I'm in a business setting, because I don't know how to dine at a fine dining restaurant. And so, again, I often say inside of every man is a broken boy who needs to be healed. And so that's one thing I do through working with young boys, doing that process. Okay, good. I'm able to stop intergenerational trauma through you, but what about the dad? Right.
You know, and so I help him heal the broken boy inside. So now I know this healing can continue in their family.
Yeah.
Which ones?
I don't think so. I think the providing and protecting definitely has... For men. For men, definitely. But the other attributes they haven't touched yet because... After COVID, man, a lot of young men are lazy, are stuck in the basement, are apathetic towards life. You know, no outlook like, you know, so many of us complain about young boys or young men not being men.
But how many of us are actually teaching them how to be one? You are. So there. Yeah. But we need to be more of me. And so more of these young boys feel condemned more than, I guess, encouraged to change. And so that's why they're stuck in the basement. That's why you don't see the work ethic you used to.
You have to have those attributes. I mean, like I said, that's the first gear in manhood, protecting and providing. You know, even the scripture says a man who doesn't provide for his own is worse than an unbeliever. Really? Yeah. So you have to provide for your family. You want to be a fighter. You want to be assertive. Not necessarily being aggressive.
You want to have calculated actions in everything. You know, the fighter in that chapter, I talk about the good side and the bad side. You know, a lot of men, we lose control, lose our freedom, lose our lives.
But the fighter in this book, what I'm teaching you is how to be strategic in every move, how to consider this decision and then look at the outcome of that decision before you make that move. For instance, the Oscars with I talk about Brother Will Smith and Chris Rock, the situation that happened there. He could have, you know, once he stood up, he lost it.
But in that moment, why he's in that seat. if he could have processed in real time, like I want to wreck my man right now because he's offending my wife. But if I get up right now, this is going to cost me more than it's worth. Let me deal with him backstage and talk to him one-on-one. But as soon as he got up out that chair, the internal battle was over. He lost.
And then to Chris rocks, I guess, uh, Not defense per se, but to give him a lot of credit, his self-control and restraint is something that I admired in that moment. And he was talked about bad after that, like he should have hit him. He should have did this and did that. When you do what I do in my community, that retaliation can also cost you your life.
