3 Reasons Men Lose The EDGE:

Business Challenges:

  • Men often focus on past failures, leading to a cycle of fear and scarcity.

  • This results in compromising their standards and playing defensively, rather than offensively.

  • A loss of EDGE in business means a loss of certainty and focus, leading to reactive rather than proactive strategies.

Relationship Challenges:

  • Many men find themselves in stagnant marriages because they stop "marketing" to their most important "client" - their wife.

  • Instead of pursuing passion and connection, they settle for mediocrity.

  • The EDGE is lost when men become pleasers rather than leaders in their relationships.

Lack of Purpose:

  • When men stop listening to their inner voice, they begin to doubt their actions and lose sight of their "why".

  • A man's purpose is to grow, evolve, and lead. Without this purpose, the EDGE is lost.

How to Regain The EDGE:

Do The Hard Work:

  • Embrace challenges and stop looking for the easy way out.

  • Prepare for difficulties and train daily to face them head-on.

Anticipate Challenges:

  • Expect obstacles and be prepared for them.

  • By anticipating difficulties, men can be proactive rather than reactive.

Find Perspective and Gratitude:

  • Understand that someone else has faced and overcome the same challenges.

  • Gratitude can act as an antidote to stress, keeping one grounded and focused.

Don't Do It Alone:

  • Men have been conditioned to be independent, but there's strength in numbers.

  • Surround yourself with other men who have the EDGE and learn from them.

Raul emphasizes the importance of not only finding the EDGE but also maintaining it. It's a continuous journey of self-improvement, growth, and leadership. By focusing on solutions rather than problems, men can reclaim their EDGE and lead a fulfilling life.
