Hey everyone!

I know it has been a couple months since my last post, and I apologize for that.  I have gotten so busy and distracted by other things.  I have recently gone through some serious life changes. 

My dedication to spreading the proactive life has been reshaped and redirected.  I see that now is the time, more than ever, that we need strong gentleman to stand up.  I pray that we will all look at our lives and reflect on what we can do to strive to be great every day.  

Best of luck in your journey for greatness. I hope to tag along for the ride.

-The Proactive Gentleman

These are some of my favorite Bible verses concerning manhood.

“Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.”      1 Corinthians 16: 13-14

“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps”   Proverbs 16: 9

“or this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God.”  1 Thessalonians 4: 3-5

The Most Interesting Man in the World

The Most Interesting Man in the World is actually the most interesting man in the world. Great lessons and words of wisdom for all the gentleman (and women) out there

I love this description of what a gentleman is:  ”merely a cultured, self respecting, considerate intellectual who was seeking to perpetually improve himself and understand the human condition through introspection and learning, while appreciating what they considered to be the finer things in life and helping others whenever possible, deeply connected to the spirit of adventure that has historically driven our species to mountaintops and outer space, across deserts of water and sand, unleashing an inexhaustible passion in search of meaning.”
