Are you a good Man?
Sharing today from
THE GOOD MAN PROJECT.

What does it mean to be a good man? Can you just decide to be a good man, is it hereditary, or something else?
In light of our changing world, and the chaos that every area of the Globe seems to be experiencing we need to take a look at any and all things that need to happen.
Here’s what I believe are the qualities of a good man you can work on developing and growing.
#1 A good man is loyal to his people.
#2 A good man is someone who is a man of his word. #3 A good man protects his love ones.
#4 A good man treats everyone with respect.
#5 A good man takes responsibility for him self and his actions.
#6 A good man is willing to express his emotions.
#7 A good man doesn’t believe in or hold on to stereotypes.
To a good man, there is and has never been anything known as “women’s work” or “men’s work” at work or home. They don’t mean anything, and they are silly. If he is good at something like dishes he does them. If his wife is better at mechanical things, he knows it, and she does it. It is not about gender but about who has the skills. I am proudly known as dish man in my house, and I love doing the dishes. A good man is comfortable knowing what he is and isn’t good at in life. He is comfortable talking about activities he does that other people might think of as being more “feminine,” but he doesn’t care what other people think because he is secure. As Sheryl Sandberg said “We can each define ambition and progress for ourselves. The goal is to work toward a world where expectations are not set by the stereotypes that hold us back, but by our personal passion, talents and interests.”
