When you hear self-reliance, what do you think of? Living off the grid in a cabin somewhere? Doing everything yourself, and pulling yourself up by your bootstraps? Do these images get at what it really means to be self-reliant, or is there a deeper and even more profound meaning to be grasped? Indeed there is, and my guest today is here to help us unpack it. His name is Kyle Eschenroeder. He’s a regular contributor at AoM and we’ve just published a little pocket guide filled with his meditations on what it truly means to be self-reliant. Today on the show, Kyle and I discuss what most people get wrong about self-reliance and how he defines it. We then get into specific tactics you can use to trust yourself more like spending time in solitude, developing an inner scorecard, not seeking advice when you’re first starting a big project, and using intentional introspection. Kyle and I then discuss how to jive self-reliance with belonging to a community and how to know if you’re becoming a self-reliant man. Developing a self-reliant mindset is more difficult than ever in our modern world, and yet vital to living a satisfying life on your own terms; you don't want to miss this show.
In today’s podcast, Kyle Eschenroeder and I discuss a number of the ideas in Kyle’s book, The Pocket Guide to Action: 116 Meditations on the Art of Doing, though there are many more that we were unable to flesh out due to time constraints. I suggest being ready to take notes while you listen in to this episode of the Mancast. The ideas discussed are both pragmatic and powerful when put to use. They’ve had a dramatic impact on my life. I’m confident they’ll do the same for yours. Show Highlights - How to discern the difference between right action and wrong action - What the costs of inaction are and how they compare to the potential costs of taking action - Why the idea that action requires motivation is a farce - How to combat the temptation to seek comfort by taking bold action - How to view failure (and why failure is sometimes worse than inaction) - The difference between taking action and being busy - How meditation and times of rest can be forms of positive action - Why patience is sometimes the best action we can take - How success from consistent action acts as a step function - Why it’s important to plan for action - The difference between satisficers and maximizers - How to deal with those that hate on you for taking action - Strategies for eliminating anything that distracts us from the actions we need to be taking Get Kyle’s Book: https://store.artofmanliness.com/products/the-pocket-guide-to-action-116-meditations-on-the-art-of-doing Get Access to Kyle’s Course on Taking Action: http://masculinebydesign.com/theactioncourse Sign Up for Kyle’s Newsletter: http://www.kyleschen.com/letter/ Kyle’s Blog: http://KyleSchen.com Follow Kyle On Twitter: https://twitter.com/kyleschen Podcast References: Stop Hacking Your Life: http://www.artofmanliness.com/2015/04/13/stop-hacking-your-life/ The Dip by Seth Godin on Amazon.com: http://a.co/1HjYKyc The One Thing by Gary Keller on Amazon.com: http://a.co/aP4ROCB

Today's guest is Kyle Eschenroeder, author of "The Pocket Guide to Action." Last year, Kyle published a piece on the site called "Meditations on the Wisdom of Action." It contained 116 short, punchy devotional-esque passages on the nature and importance of action. It was my favorite piece of content in 2016, and I still find myself continually thinking about its principles, and utilizing them in my life. The feedback we’ve received from readers has been similarly enthusiastic. At over 16,000 words, this longform article was about the length of a short book. So we decided to turn it into one, and titled it "The Pocket Guide to Action: 116 Meditations on the Art of Doing." Today on the show, I’ve brought Kyle on to dig deep into his philosophy on action. He shares why inaction can be expensive, how action can sometimes mean not doing anything, and why taking action is the best way to find courage and passion in life. Along the way, he shares tactics you can take today to help shift yourself into a more action-oriented mindset. If you’ve been struggling to get started on a project or have just been feeling unmotivated, this podcast will light a fire under your rear!

In this podcast we talk about one of those popular articles, which was about thriving in uncertainty. We tend to think we have more control over our lives than we really do. So today we talk about tools and techniques to truly thrive when life takes us in unexpected directions.

In EP004 I discussed the Trap of Perfectionism. EP005 continues that discussion with a focus on taking ACTION. As my friend @Andrew_Gregory pointed out: life is like riding a bike - you need to be moving in order for it to work properly. In this episode, I mention a few points made by Kyle Eschenroeder in an article called: 10 Overlooked Truths About Action. I discovered Kyle's article on Brett McKay's website ArtOfManliness.com. You might also want to check out Brett's podcast. I also mention Stephen Pressfield's great book: Do the Work I simply can't recommend that book enough!
