#70: Perform the Pause, Clarify the Cause

In the last episode, we looked at the barriers in your life, those internal obstacles that seem to block you from living in true freedom, and becoming more of the man you truly want to be. We uncovered how those barriers are actually difficult emotions that you run up against in the moment. Let's recap briefly, and then we're going to take it a step further, and discuss the "How." We're going to get very practical, and look at some actionable, concrete things that you can DO, both in the moment when you are feeling that intense feeling, and a quick daily tool that you can practice in ADVANCE, that will help you take the necessary steps when you are IN that intense moment. Maybe for you, you want to be a good husband or significant other, but you get in those moments of anger and resentment, and those intense feelings stop you from being the husband you truly want to be. You want to be a good father, but the kids disobey, you get frustrated and angry, and the way you respond is not in line with that vision of the dad you want to be. Or, you want to stop watching porn, but you get that familiar, intense craving to pull up the computer or phone and you feel powerless against it. Those obstacles of difficult feelings that arise in the moment, are actually where your growth and progress BEGIN. In other words, they are not barriers, they are doorways. Those difficult feelings are your frontiers. And if you can learn the skill of moving through those difficult emotions, on the other side is that vision of the man you truly want to be. On the other side is freedom. So how do you actually move through that frontier? How DO you turn that obstacle into a doorway? That's what you're going to walk away with in this episode. So let's dive in! Want to know EXACTLY what to do the next time you feel that intense urge to watch porn? Get the P.A.T.H. Plan for free now at ⁠newpaths.me/plan
