| 0:00.0 | You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest, embrace your fears, and boldly |
| 0:04.6 | charge your own path. When life knocks you down, you get back up one more time, every time. |
| 0:10.2 | You are not easily deterred or defeated, rugged, resilient, strong. This is your life, |
| 0:16.4 | this is who you are, this is who you will become. At the end of the day, and after all is said |
| 0:21.8 | and done, you can call yourself a man. Gentlemen, what is going on today? My name is Ryan |
| 0:27.7 | I'm your host and the founder of the Order of Man podcast and movement. Welcome here today. |
| 0:32.2 | This is your Friday field notes. So you're going to hear from me typically on Friday. I share |

| 1:25.1 | writing down the three things I'm grateful for going to do every morning I'm supposed to write down? |
| 1:30.9 | Well, I'm grateful for the weather and I'm grateful for my kids and I'm grateful for my health and I |
| 1:35.6 | am grateful by the way for all of those things. But sometimes I often wonder what is the point of this? |
| 1:42.3 | What is the purpose of this? We can get so inundated and consumed and overwhelmed with the amount |
| 1:50.4 | of things that we're supposed to do in this quote-unquote self-development space that a lot of |
