Helping men uncage themselves through self-mastery. Build a life of discipline, freedom, and abundance. Documenting the journey.

@mrmikeMTL Believing that you were born a “sinner”

[B @theuncagedman]

@pallnandi That’s why your first date should’ve something simple and cheap.

It’s not an event, it’s an opportunity to see if you have chemistry.

@james_xond No. It’s your parent’s responsibility to take care of you.

The belief that you have to take care of your parents actively prevents the building of generational wealth, because money is always being invested backwards instead of forward.

@AkesoSobriety The greater the setback the greater the comeback story.

Why do young men watch porn?

Because they’re overstimulated, bored, lonely, and it’s the easiest dopamine hit available. No rejection, no effort, instant gratification.

How to stop:

There’s no easy solution. Even the first use hijacks your dopamine system and rewires your brain to crave more.

The way out: regulate your nervous system and rewire your brain back to baseline.

• Daily walks without headphones
• Meditation (I do 2x30min daily)
• Remove other overstimulation (social media, substances, chaos)
• Tell people about it to kill the shame

It takes time. It took me about 4 months of heavy regulation to rewire and feel good again. But your brain CAN heal, you just have to stop re-damaging it every day.

@SheSoSauve @smithhmackenzie haha really? usually once I start warming up my blood starts flowing and I feel great.

But I totally understand that ugh feeling

@AdamLaneSmith People think it sounds badass to ignore anyone who shows the slightest hint of not giving us what we want but it’s just permission seeking to be fearful and avoidant.

@GiffLasta I’ve had 3 major relationships:

7 years (married)

2 years

3 years (engaged)

And not once have I ever experienced a decline in sex.

What exactly are people doing that’s causing their partner to not want to f*ck them???

[B @theuncagedman]

@livewithnoregrt Quiet people are insecure.

Not “introverted,” not “shy,” not “quiet”

Insecure.

This isn’t to pass judgment, just to wake people up that they have work to do on themselves.

@Thebiglade It’s not even about the money. It’s about the way you’re showing up in the world.

A man without money is not providing value to the world.

[B @theuncagedman]

@CoachDanGo I’ve learned this and got so hooked on it that I now do two 30 minute walks every day without my phone.

[B @theuncagedman]

@Tekeee This is so true. After my first business made even a little bit of money I quit 6 months later.

Even though that business eventually failed, I’m never going back, just building my second business now.

@danmartell I like it when he begs.

@gregogallagher Turning anything into an ultimate moral act will have negative consequences.

Drinking is fine. Not drinking is fine.

Make decisions for yourself and not based on a rigid moral structure someone imposed on you.

[B @theuncagedman]

@FWPlayboy She’ll forgive you for being a man.

She won’t forgive you for being a pussy.

@HeyYoungKings If you’re arguing, you already lost frame.

Grounded men don’t need to defend themselves with logic.

[B @theuncagedman]

@Markmanson Rewiring my dopamine from porn and drugs to discipline and building. It’s hard as hell but it’s working.

[B @theuncagedman]

@official_Gegeh I understand the sentiment of posts like this, but I will say it hasn’t been my lived experience.

Connection and chemistry are what really matters. Love is for fairy tales.

[B @theuncagedman]

@Codie_Sanchez Sometimes taking a step back is he best way to take 10 steps forward.

I burned myself out last year trying to do everything. Eventually I realized I needed to slow down and spend time in solitude.

Now I’m back with a clear head and defined purpose.
