Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness—all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil.” Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

As I Indicated In The Introduction, Stefan Aarnio Is No Longer With Us, But He Has Left Behind An Incredible Legacy In The Shape Of This Book And The Many Others That He Has Written. He Actually Completed This Book In 11 Days, Which Is Incredible Considering How Long It Is. Upon Returning To His Company After A 30-day Absence, He Was Inspired To Write This Book. When He Returned To The Office, He Saw His Staff In A Mess. People Were Grumbling And Whining To Him While Also Arriving Late And Doing Subpar Work. Many Of His Male Workers Said That They Felt He Was Unkind And Harsh, Which Made Them Less Inclined To Work Hard Even If They Were Still Being Paid. Becoming religious (as Aarnio says all strong men are) can mitigate these struggles, as studies suggest that religious people may be better equipped to handle both physical and mental health challenges. For example, religious people can effectively rely on prayer to help control pain, and religious people who receive religious psychotherapy experience greater mental health benefits than those who receive traditional therapy. Good mental health matters because it’s essential to taking control of your mind. In High Performance Habits, Brendon Burchard warns that having poor mental health harms your ability to focus and pace yourself and so leads to burnout, which harms your social standing (by leading to isolation) and your financial standing (by causing you to skip work). How to Be a Strong ManAs the author articulates, this discomfort arises due to a persistent, socially engineered effort to prevent a male’s purpose in life, and was detailed in various societal situations at length. Awareness to these situations created the discomfort. This book is a hastily written stream of consciousness that connects a bunch of interesting statements from a handful of other books that he may or may not have read. In fact, the best thing I got from this book was a list of books that I'm fairly confident are much better than this one. Crucially, none of this was heresy or emotionally based arguments. These were strengthened through research, results and proved throughout history. The historical accounts were excellent, and readers will appreciate the historical references to better understand and support their futures. The U.S. Constitution doesn’t guarantee happiness, only the pursuit of it.” Benjamin Franklin Of course, the poem reads: Strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create hard times, hard times create strong men. Today I am 31, I am a millennial, and I run a business. I hire young men who cannot find their footing in life. Young men—boys, really—walk into my office looking for work. Rather than taking up the required work, they tell me about their feelings and their dreams. This is weak. Good times have created weak men. We have enjoyed so much comfort and surplus in the Western world after World War II. The postwar era gave way to the baby boomer generation—the richest and most prosperous generation in Western history—and weakness crept in like a cancerous tumor that must be painfully removed. The great economic times of the past century fostered weakness in the baby boomers. This weakness was compounded by Generation X, and now it is really rearing its ugly head in my generation: the millennials. Thus, the millennial problem. He talks about how the enemy uses subversion tactics (quoting Yuri) through media, and he himself quotes movies like Fight Club (which is indeed a great movie). He doesn't realize that he himself is a victim of western media subversion. I highly encourage everyone (including the author) to read Reel Bad Arabs, which details how Hollywood vilified a group of people.

Full Book Name: Hard Times Create Strong Men: Why the World Craves Leadership and How You Can Step Up to Fill the Need Now the bad.. oh boy. The remaining 3 sections of the book are essentially a collection of "I think"s and poor understanding of history and sociology. It is nearly impossible to take his advice on women seriously as he has no authority in the area and his understanding of homosexuality is even more wishy-washy. I listened to his dilemma and then looked at him straight in the eye over a fancy upscale dinner and said, “You have to make the million dollars. You must.” This ‘strong men’ statement was harped on numerous times throughout the book, and each time with a different angle of research, complimented by historical examples. This content was confronting but relevant, and was key for the necessary mindset and behaviour change. As the author quoted from Gene Simmons,Those themes were hard-hitting, with no nonsense. The author cut to the chase, identified the problem, then elaborated. Refreshingly, no stone remained unturned and controversial topics had precedence. This featured throughout and should resonate with most readers, particularly, in the current (2022) woke madness and agenda fuelled society.

Although I sympathize with some of the author's ideas for entirely different reasons, the entire scientifical foundation of this book (including data, history, philosophy, etc.) is 2/10 at best. Another critique is that some issues portrayed in this book are only marginally existent and even the author is a victim of media amplifying certain issues (e.g. 1 case in 20.000.000 cases being portrayed as a norm and not an exception). If only he could have observed the dogfight and wasteland media the media have prioritised in recent years. RIP.A Frame Of Mind That Enables You To Be A Productive Monster Without Interruptions. Therefore, The Fact That This Occurs Is Intriguing Because It Suggests That It Was Done On Purpose. According To The Bible, We Were Made For Good Deeds. I’m Not Here To Try To Convert You If You Don’t Believe In God Or The Bible, And That’s Fine. I’m Just Making The Observation That People, Especially Men, Are Designed To Work. I am not a father at the time of writing, but I do know the role that a father plays in a household. I got to learn first-hand about what a father is NOT from my own parents and my own parents’ divorce. Why we need this book and Strong Men more than ever before We live in a world today where the weak men, women, boys, children, and everything but strong men have taken over the power in society.

In contrast, modern gay men date each other and exclude women from their relationships. Moreover, most of them don’t raise children. This, according to Aarnio, is “nonfunctioning homosexuality” because it allows men to shirk their manly duties of procreating with and taking care of women. Aarnio points out that if every man in a society practiced nonfunctioning homosexuality, that society would not survive. Therefore, Aarnio argues that it is morally wrong and therefore unmanly to choose another man as a life partner.Ideally, if this book shaped and motivated men to be strong men, with a purpose and disciplined work focus. With distractions such as porn mitigated, and a relationship with a woman prioritised and established. This then provides a foundation towards building a family, and would be an outstanding legacy for the author.
