Social media has given everyone a platform to be an expert. But it got me thinking how does Social Media affect the 5 mindsets of men? I mean really, if you don’t know who you are… it can eat you up.

 

 

I think I was around 32 years of age when I realized I had never truly studied me. Oh, I have always been a voracious reader… but there are no books out there on Garth Heckman… so I started to really dig into who I was and what my motivation was in life. How I thought, acted, and where it all came from. You know the old saying “an unexamined life is not worth living”. I really took that to heart. So i want to do a little 5 part study on…Mindsets. 

 

Wiener - Even if you looked at all the ingredients in a hot dog and thought “well I am not sure what all this is, but it sounds ok and it tastes good” - you would be disgusted to actually know what those ingredients really are. It is filled with meaningless waste product and filler… truth is you could put just about anything in a wiener and it could be deemed acceptable. This mindset shouldn’t be called a mindset at all but rather a mindshift… you can leave out the “f” if you want. This person listens to everyone. Insecure and easily wavers whenever challenged. They typically agree with the loudest voice in their head or in the room until someone louder shows up. They lack enough self esteem or confidence to think for themselves. Most likely they were kids in a family who had parents do all their thinking for them. They fear failing but not as much as the fear of not being accepted. Some just lack the experience as to how to even find check and balances in making a decision. 

What to do if this is you?

Start by asking yourself a few questions: If I make my own decision and I am wrong, what is the worst that can happen? Will I die? Will I get blackballed? Will my parents hate me? Lets be real here for a second- not much of anything will really happen that you can’t overcome. Second question is: Why do you care what people think? Look If I am gong to invest my whole life savings I should probably worry about what my investor thinks about my decision to open a freeze pop stand. However again, most decisions are not that major and don’t need the utmost expert advice. If you are simply doing what others say to do to avoid criticism or failure… it’s going to happen regardless. So you might as well be criticized for being real and genuine! 

Final thought. Start by making small decisions that you know might not sit well with others, but you deep down want to make. Like not going to your parents for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Or not going out with the boys and dropping money you don’t have on drink you don’t need. Start small, stretch and see just how good it feels not be a wiener! And by the way, when you get to heaven, Gods not going to ask you why you were not more like your neighbor Todd, he is going to ask why you were not YOU! 

 

Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows

 

What you are eating in life right now is what you have sown into your life. 

Are you eating well financially? 

Are you eating well physically?

Are you eating well mentally?

Are you eating well spiritually?

If you are then you have sown well. If not, then it is time to start eating right! Sow the best into your life! Don’t be a wiener.
