The Contemporary Man Magazine june 2018
The Contemporary Man THE MISSION: is Hoping to become one of the world's most popular men's lifestyle magazine. includes monthly features on subjects such as fashion, fitness, dating, money and entertainment. Tips from style on choosing a new suit to workout advice on modernizing tired fitness routines complement editorial features on relationships, finance and entertainment. It is my life’s mission to transform the lives of MEN through my programs and books as well through my information online. I want to see you succeed. Words such as honor, loyalty, trust, integrity, and courage are words that have powerful meanings, but they are only words unless you live by them. As I talk with other men, I can see that there is a massive need for learning how to be a better father. But I’ve also seen a need for reliable and honorable men outside of the home. Guys, we’re losing the meaning of manhood. We’ve gone away from being reliable, rugged, independent, and tough to a collection of wimpy, dependent, whiners. Something has got to be done! “Some say there is no such thing as an Alpha made Man’s man. That nothing can be accomplished in life without the help of others. That a man cannot reach his goals without assistance. And while that may be true, these people are not the source or the cause of his success. A man becomes an Alpha made the moment he decides to shape his world, rather than be formed by it. It is a spark… A decision… An internal will that can never be given by another and that can never be purchased or borrowed. At that moment, he becomes the sole architect and artist of his life - an Alpha made Man’s man, where the rest of the world serves as the hammer and chisel he wields in order to shape it to his desire. The Contemporary Man was created for men who want to achieve greatness. Who wants to leave their mark on the world, and create a legacy of honor, integrity, and achievement in every aspect of their lives.” -Travis S. Miller Editor-in-Chief/Founder of the Contemporary Man.

Peter’s Pan<br />
Everyone has seen the movie or the play, Peter Pan. What we see is a boy who, for<br />
whatever reason, has decided that he never wants to grow up, that he wants to shirk his<br />
responsibility and stay in Neverland while he jokes, plays, and engages in practical jokes<br />
on the Hook. We realize this is a fictional work, but if we look around in society, it's not<br />
all that far off from what we see in a lot of men.<br />
I'll give you a prime example. Just the other day, there was a piece I read about a 30-<br />
year old man who had taken his parents to court because his parents were "evicting"<br />
him from their house. How pathetic is this? Maybe there's something wrong with this guy<br />
(apparently there's something wrong with this guy). But it's incredible that his thought<br />
process is to fight so hard to stay at home. I can't help, but there's something seriously<br />
wrong with him. But in addition to that, I can't help but think there's something wrong with<br />
the parents. How was this guy raised? How was he fathered?<br />
When I was done with high school, we went on our senior trip. <strong>The</strong> day I got home – the<br />
very next day – I moved out. It wasn't' because I had anything against my mother but<br />
because it was time. It was time to leave the nest. I see so many boys who are more<br />
concerned with staying at home than experiencing life. <strong>The</strong>y're more concerned with not<br />
having bills and upholding their responsibilities. <strong>The</strong>y're more concerned with Call of<br />
Duty or Fortnite (or whatever the game is that they're playing). <strong>The</strong>y're shirking their<br />
responsibilities. <strong>The</strong>y don't have jobs. And, their parents are enabling them actually to do<br />
this. And we question why we're having problems with our boys turning into men. This is<br />
the failure to launch syndrome – the rise of the Peter Pans.<br />
<strong>The</strong> good news is that there are some solutions to this. If you find yourself in a position<br />
where you're a boy or a male who wants to grow up but can't figure out how to do it, this<br />
article will provide the solution. I see so many men who use the excuse of not having a<br />
father figure in their life to justify their lack of performance as men. I can't believe that it<br />
needs to be addressed, but it indeed does. So, let's talk about this today.<br />
If you're experiencing this and you're nervous about launching, I'm going to share some<br />
ideas. But, I'm also going share some insights for those of us who are fathers –<br />
someone who is responsible for raising up boys in a way where they want to go out into<br />
society and produce, as opposed to consuming. And that's the difference between a boy<br />
and a man. A boy drinks. That's all he does. Sure, men can absorb as well, but they also<br />
produce. And hopefully, they are providing significantly more than they consume. You<br />
can see if that's not the case, which we'd have a real problem.<br />
For example, I look at my boys and daughter. <strong>The</strong>y consume resources. That's not bad,<br />
that's what they do. My goal as a parent, however, is to help them stand on their own<br />
two feet. Too many parents these days are doing everything for their children thinking<br />
that somehow they're giving their children a leg up when they do everything for them.
