You know, oddly enough there are not enough real men out there – you know, men who want to be the best dad for their kids, super husband to their wife, honoring son to their parents and a man of obedience to God.
I have a plan in place for me now for a few years. It covers the aspects of my life that are important. I call it my ‘man plan’. I have not found many men who took the time to make a plan. Part of my plan is ministry and there I have some goals. One of them is to help other men to create a plan for their life – to help them know where they are, where they want to be and offer assistance on how to get there.
Or perhaps you have a plan? Anyway, if you are interested in something like this, I will be posting some more details over the next few months.
I put together a quick start planning aid for a place to begin. Some begin there, some need some help and others are pretty good on their own. The magic is not in making a plan of course, it’s in improving the man who you are. Our Father is looking for progression and not perfection. Anyway, have a read through this small bullet list and make some notes.
Quick Start Template for Men
- Be loving…
- Take care of yourself…
- Build your character…
- Follow God…
- Be well respected…
- Be pure in thought…
I did not create these ‘areas’ by chance. Rather they are based on a survey among women asking “What qualities of a man are most attractive to you?” I figured that would be a good place to start. So, working on the template above, take each point and expand it to action points – how this applies to your life, what steps you are taking or want to take and how you can measure your progress.
More to follow soon…
