Who doesn't desire a personal sense of meaning? Have you ever met the average ever day guy who wakes up groggy, showers and dresses for work, spends time in morning traffic, and trudges his way through a corporate job that makes him question the meaning of life. He often wonders what exactly he is building, struggling to find the meaning of manhood in a culture that lacks many of the opportunities and incentives provided to men throughout history. As technology changes, jobs move towards being desk centered, indoors, and for all intents and purposes, hands off. Joe feels like he is dying inside each day. He longs to build something of his own. This can describe the way many men often feel in Western culture. Devoid of a community, isolated in jobs that lacks a sense of deep, personal meaning, and often silenced, many men are working for nothing more than a paycheck. Gone are the days of the Wild West, the homestead, and the communal purpose that men and society in general used to experience. The Industrial Revolution changed the way we work, and men have suffered in many ways ever since. Finding a way to overcome, a purpose for which to work towards, and an obstacle that can be conquered is vital for the happiness and well-being of modern men. Here are seven ways you can find it.
