The Lie of the Lone Wolf Man

The lone wolf man is a persona that isn’t real. When you look at most movies about lone wolf men, they have a pretty sad life. Sure, they could kill people and win the day, but at what cost? There is also the reality that none of them became great warriors alone. The movies will often show a backstory where they had a guide train them for their adventures.

Too many men think they have to battle everything in their lives alone. They see it as a sign of weakness to ask for help. We want to show how this attitude hurts us and how we can overcome it and build strong resilient lives.

Why the Lone Wolf Appeals to Men

Pride

We idolize heroes of the past

The quest for glory and other people’s respect

How the Lone Wolf Hurts Men

We get weird by ourselves

We try to do too much

We get an attitude of everyone against me

We don’t trust

Our capacity won’t grow, by ourselves

Others can call us higher and push us

Overcoming the Lone Wolf Mentality

Serve Others

Avoid building a Loner Life

Seek to have real relationships and not just virtual ones

CHALLENGE:

Quit buying the lie of doing it by yourself!
