Picture this, A man who's not defined

00:00:05,850 --> 00:00:10,140
many talents, many interests and skills.

00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:15,990
A man who embodies the spirit of

00:00:16,980 --> 00:00:20,100
This my friends, is the
essence of a Renaissance man.

00:00:23,895 --> 00:00:27,525
to life is not only relevant,
but crucial in our modern world.
7
00:00:27,825 --> 00:00:28,695
So let's get into it.
8
00:00:33,765 --> 00:00:35,085
Here's the million dollar question.
9
00:00:35,655 --> 00:00:37,965
How do men like us reach
our full potentials?
10
00:00:38,504 --> 00:00:42,525
Growing to the men we dream of being
while taking care of our responsibilities,
11
00:00:42,855 --> 00:00:47,265
working, being good husbands, fathers,
and still take care of ourselves?
12
00:00:48,224 --> 00:00:49,525
Well, that's the big question.
13
00:00:50,490 --> 00:00:53,400
In this podcast, we'll help you
answer those questions and more.
14
00:00:53,580 --> 00:00:56,490
My name is Brent and welcome
to the Fallible Man Podcast.
15
00:01:00,390 --> 00:01:02,850
Welcome back to the Fallible Man
Podcast, where we explore the
16
00:01:02,850 --> 00:01:06,270
challenges and triumphs of modern
masculinity and all things, man.
17
00:01:06,870 --> 00:01:10,440
I'm your host Brent Allen, and today
we have a special episode in honor of
18
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,150
the upcoming 4th of July celebration.
19
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,800
We're delving into the concept of
a Renaissance man and exploring
20
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:22,950
his relevance on our current age
of anti masculinity culture and why
21
00:01:22,950 --> 00:01:24,900
you should move back that direction.
22
00:01:25,260 --> 00:01:29,100
So grab a cup of coffee, settle
in, and let's drive right into it.
23
00:01:30,735 --> 00:01:34,935
Now to truly understand the value of
returning to the Renaissance man ideal, we
24
00:01:34,935 --> 00:01:38,805
can draw inspiration from none other than
our founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin,
25
00:01:38,985 --> 00:01:40,664
Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams.
26
00:01:40,965 --> 00:01:45,345
They weren't just politician or statesman,
they were polymaths, embodying the
27
00:01:45,350 --> 00:01:47,355
very essence of the Renaissance man.
28
00:01:47,775 --> 00:01:50,865
They were writers and inventors,
philosophers and architects
29
00:01:50,865 --> 00:01:52,545
among many other things.
30
00:01:52,935 --> 00:01:56,145
Uh, if you start reading books on
these guys, it's just incredible
31
00:01:56,414 --> 00:01:58,755
what all some of our founding
fathers were involved with.
32
00:01:59,610 --> 00:02:03,419
Their diverse interest and expertise
helped shape not only the birth of a
33
00:02:03,419 --> 00:02:06,119
nation, but also the course of history.
34
00:02:07,619 --> 00:02:11,009
So before we delve into the
steps of becoming a Renaissance
35
00:02:11,009 --> 00:02:14,609
man ourselves, let's define
what exactly it means to be one.
36
00:02:15,420 --> 00:02:19,470
A Renaissance man is defined as an
individual who seeks knowledge mastery
37
00:02:19,709 --> 00:02:22,170
across various domain, do domains.
38
00:02:22,470 --> 00:02:23,430
We'll see if I can say that right.
39
00:02:24,285 --> 00:02:28,125
He's driven by deep curiosity and
a thirst of learning, embracing
40
00:02:28,125 --> 00:02:29,925
both the arts and sciences.
41
00:02:30,345 --> 00:02:33,225
He appreciates the interconnectedness
of different fields.
42
00:02:33,495 --> 00:02:39,165
Understanding the expertise in one area
can enhance his experience, capabilities,
43
00:02:39,315 --> 00:02:41,655
understanding, and more in others.
44
00:02:44,385 --> 00:02:48,885
So how do we start our journey
towards becoming a Renaissance
45
00:02:48,885 --> 00:02:50,984
man in the 21st century?
46
00:02:51,674 --> 00:02:56,385
Well, here's three key steps
to consider in this pursuit.
47
00:02:57,404 --> 00:03:00,435
Number one, embrace
intellectual curiosity.
48
00:03:01,154 --> 00:03:04,334
The first step towards becoming
a Renaissance man is to
49
00:03:04,334 --> 00:03:06,524
cultivate intellectual curiosity.
50
00:03:07,185 --> 00:03:11,714
Engage in lifelong learning, not
limiting yourself to a single discipline.
51
00:03:12,285 --> 00:03:16,725
But exploring various subjects
that pique your interest, whether
52
00:03:16,725 --> 00:03:20,745
it's art, literature, history,
philosophy, or science doesn't matter.
53
00:03:21,405 --> 00:03:25,155
Embrace the joy of discovery
and let your curiosity guide you
54
00:03:25,725 --> 00:03:27,765
towards new areas of knowledge.
55
00:03:28,905 --> 00:03:32,295
Step two, develop a diverse set of skills.
56
00:03:33,255 --> 00:03:36,285
Renaissance men possess a wide
range of skills and talents.
57
00:03:37,395 --> 00:03:41,175
Embrace the versatility of actively
seeking to develop new skills
58
00:03:41,205 --> 00:03:42,795
outside of your comfort zone.
59
00:03:43,395 --> 00:03:46,275
Whether it's learning a musical
instrument or honing your writing
60
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,015
abilities, maybe it's acquiring
practical craftsmanship skills.
61
00:03:51,735 --> 00:03:56,145
These diverse skills will not only enrich
your life, but also foster adaptability
62
00:03:56,145 --> 00:03:58,395
and resilience in an ever-changing world.
63
00:03:59,910 --> 00:04:02,790
Step three guys, pursue
creative collaborations.
64
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,079
Now, collaboration gets
thrown around a lot, right?
65
00:04:07,079 --> 00:04:11,670
In this space as a podcaster,
YouTube people, social media, right?
66
00:04:11,670 --> 00:04:12,840
You hear collaboration.
67
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,570
So I like it because it's
actually brought the word back
68
00:04:15,575 --> 00:04:16,980
into the forefront of our minds.
69
00:04:17,370 --> 00:04:21,959
But collaboration is the fundamental
aspects of the renaissance man's journey.
70
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,349
Seek opportunities to collaborate
with individuals from different
71
00:04:25,349 --> 00:04:27,150
backgrounds and areas of expertise.
72
00:04:28,035 --> 00:04:32,235
Engaging in creative collaborations
opens up new horizons, challenges
73
00:04:32,235 --> 00:04:35,205
your assumptions, and helps
you expand your perspective.
74
00:04:36,555 --> 00:04:39,945
By blending diverse talents,
ideas, and skills, you can create
75
00:04:39,945 --> 00:04:42,195
something truly, truly remarkable.
76
00:04:43,470 --> 00:04:47,130
My guys as we're approaching the 4th
of July, let's take a mo moment to
77
00:04:47,190 --> 00:04:50,520
honor the spirit of the Renaissance man
EM embodied by our founding fathers.
78
00:04:51,060 --> 00:04:54,990
By embracing intellectual curiosity,
developing diverse skills, and pursuing
79
00:04:54,995 --> 00:04:59,370
creative collaboration, we can not only
become more well-rounded individuals, but
80
00:04:59,370 --> 00:05:03,630
also con con contribute to the betterment
of our society more effectively.
81
00:05:04,170 --> 00:05:07,530
So let's reclaim the Renaissance
man ideal, igniting the spark
82
00:05:07,530 --> 00:05:11,310
curiosity within ourselves,
inspiring others to do the same.
83
00:05:12,555 --> 00:05:16,365
