30-mile mountain hikes under a 35-pound ruck, 60 hours of work with 4 hours of sleep, swimming with leaches, pushing hay bales through waist-high muddy swamps, eating worms, surviving in the wilderness, and so much more. Sounds like my kind of weekend! Today my good friend, Larry Hagner interview me and gets all the details of my 60-hour Spartan Agoge Event. Ryan Michler, a financial advisor by trade, started Order of Man with the goal of assisting men across the world become better leaders in their families, their businesses, and their communities. He now hosts a top-rated podcast and blog teaching men how to improve their relationships, their wealth, their health, and their lives. Ryan spent much of his early life without a permanent father figure and was left to learn how to be a man on his own. Through his experience in sports and his time in the military (including an active-duty tour in Iraq), he has been able to improve in every area of his life and is now on a mission to help other men do the same. He believes that most, if not all, of the world's biggest problems could be solved if males everywhere learned how to be better husbands, fathers, friends, and leaders. He's on a mission to help all men become the men they were meant to be.

It’s wired into us because we are the ones supposed to be solving the problems and keeping everyone alive and thriving. Today I talk with you how to combat negativity with The Power of Appreciation.

Many of us, as men believe that we need to have it all figured out in order for us to be successful. It's the old adage, "Fake it 'til you make it." And, while confidence is certainly something you'll need to gain in order to have success, the fine line between it and ego has the ability to destroy it. My guest today, the one and only Ryan Holiday shares how confidence is earned while ego isn't, the dangers and pitfalls of an inflated ego, and how to get out of your own way. Ryan Holiday is a media strategist and prominent writer on strategy and business. After dropping out of college at nineteen to apprentice under Robert Greene, author of The 48 Laws of Power, he went on to advise many bestselling authors and multi-platinum musicians. He served as director of marketing at American Apparel for many years, where his campaigns have been used as case studies by Twitter, YouTube, and Google and written about in AdAge, the New York Times, and Fast Company. His first book, Trust Me I'm Lying—which the Financial Times called an “astonishing, disturbing book”—was a debut bestseller and is taught in colleges around the world. He is also the author of two other books that have been instrumental in heling me achieve success in my life, The Obstacle is the Way and his latest - which he is here to talk about with us today - Ego is the Enemy.
