The True Measure of a Man, Part 1 – Dealing with failure and hardship

The True Measure of a Man, Part 1 – Dealing with failure and hardship

How do you cope when you experience hardship or failure in your life?Going through difficult times and loss exposes our true selves, which leads to more questions:

  • How do you define and measure your worth as a person?
  • What are the motivations that drive you?
  • Where do you get your worth as an individual?

Our culture tells us that our worth is all about performance and success. We’ve somehow gotten personal achievement confused with our value and worth as people. How different would your life be if you did not fear and worry about what others thought of you, if you never had to impress anyone?

Today I’d like to share with you the first of 3 talks that I gave back in 2009 after the stock market crash. These talks became the foundation of my book The True Measure of a Man, which continues to impact many lives, both men and women.
