Shownotes

Men can and should be deep thinkers, but we don't think of them that way

Men are action-oriented but our actions should be based on our depth

How Did We Lose Depth

  • Depth is lost when generalizations are accepted
  • There are plenty of men who lack depth, but that isn't all men and it doesn't  have to be you
  • Many men don't grow because they have peer pressure to conform
  • Men have also lost Depth because we aren't challenged to be thinkers
  • If we can't hold attention, how can we think?


How Shallowness Hurts Us

  • Shallowness is image-focused
  • Shallow men don't see their character and thought process as important
  • Shallow men are creatures of appetites
  • Shallow men are masters of justification
  • Shallow men keep themselves from deep meaningful relationships


How to Grow Deep

  • Being deep doesn't mean you change your personality
  • Education doesn't mean depth
  • Depth as a man is when we know ourselves and think through our purposes of life
  • We each have to discover where to start
  • We grow deep when we build our life on a purpose and not on  pleasure
