When I joined the military, I was astounded at the number of guys that didn’t know how to do anything. They couldn’t work with tools, didn’t know anything about cars, couldn’t cook, clean, balance a checkbook the list goes on. I had to ask one of them why they didn’t know how to do anything. The answer I got was: “I didn’t have anyone to teach me.” So, I think a big part of being a good man, is teaching young men how to do stuff and how to live and work in society.

I’m a young black male from the south. That’s relevant only because I’ve grown up in a very different generation, with very different experiences and exposures, with likely very different politics from Dwayne. Yet I find so much incredible benefit in listening to him teach me about what really matters beneath all those superficial layers & labels we use to divide ourselves in society, and use his advice to work on becoming the man I hope to be.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my few years, it’s that when a man of sage wisdom is willing to impart it …You shut up. Listen carefully. Say thank you. Then go do it.

Thank you, sir.

"Become the man that leaves a big hole when you leave"

That hit me right where it belonged. That's an incredible mantra.

“A wise man knows he’s got a lot to learn. A fool knows everything.” -hear it from my grandpa a lot 😂

[mamabearser-el]

To all those men and women who had a loving and present dad, grandpa, or any positive male role model in their lives, you are the richest people in the world. I would have given everything to have had my dad. I will share your videos with anyone who needs fatherly advice including my boys. To all the wonderful dads out there, thank you for caring about your children. Fathers are so important! Thank you sir for your videos. God bless us all 🙏🏼

I have a friend named Logan that is like this. and just working with him has made me look to him as an example and I have consciously changed for the better. His kindness threw a wrench in my nihilism and cynicism. He's one of the highest quality people I know

"The absence of evil is not an automatic indicator of the presence of good"

Beautiful words sir.

As a 22 year old, It’s challenging for me to understand and act as a proper man. I grew up with only my mother and three older sisters. My father was there until the age of 7 and I feel as though I have never really learned how to act like a man with his absence. I figured out a little bit about being a proper kind of person, but not a proper kind of man. You’re videos help me out very much in understanding what it means to be a man and shape an ideal of how I want to be, something that was left out for me while growing up. Thank you.

I damn near cried while watching this at work. I’m a young black male from the north east and yet your videos touch me and push me. Today I make a big change because when I leave this world I must leave a mark and big hole. Thank you, I gotta go to dry creek wrangler school one day!

"A wise man speaks because he has something to say, a fool, because he has to say something." - Plato One of my dad's favorite sayings was, "If you tell everything you know, everyone knows what you know and what they know." Enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.

I must have replayed Wayne saying “be calm… be calm..” about 10 times. I have problems with reacting instead of being calm. And Wayne saying it the way he does felt like a warm blanket of reassurance over my tendency to react. Wayne, thank you.. now I’m gonna go listen to it 10 more times.

Asking someone "is there anything I can do to help" is really important. People love to ask "What's wrong" if you see someone blue, but the issue is, chances are that person has no clue what's wrong and you just made everything worse. Just asking if there's anything they need help with or anything they'd like to talk about is important. We need to look after each other, especially our young men. Not a lot of them have father figures or people that care, be the person who does care!

Advice for young men (and not so young men):

“We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.”

For all of the know-it-all’s out there that are so blasted worried about the barn, I moved inside the door of that barn to get out of the rain. It had been raining for hours and the wind has been blowing in, the hay was soaking wet. Give a guy a little bit of credit. I know a thing or two because I’ve seen a thing or two.

The Father for the fatherless. Respect. Big blessing and keep doing what your doing, people need the information

"The absence of evil doesn't necessarily mean the presence of good"
