If you still believe even for a second that change is possible for you, you must act now...before you convince yourself that it's too late. Imagine what you could feel like next summer? #risingfather #father #Motivation #gym #gymmotivation #gymlife #disciplined #dad

30s and 40s are precious years for men. You are deciding what the second half of your life will look like. Don't let another year slip by. You have a savage inside, stop hiding him in a cage of comfort. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational #wednesdaythought #family

I must maintain my own discipline and practice emotional control so that in challenging moments, I project calm strength instead of frustration. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational #fatherhood #man #dad #Brotherhood

The quality of the world we give our children largely depends on the quality of person we are. Whether we decide to pursue our dreams or let fear rule us #risingfather #father #fatherhood #man #manhood #discipline #disciplined

Your failures should be YOUR failures. Don't let them affect everyone else in your world. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational #fatherhood #man #discipline #dad

If you can’t say no to that snack when you’re stressed… If you can’t get out of bed when you said you would… If you can’t pause before snapping back at your spouse... Then it’s not just a willpower issue. It’s a discipline issue. #risingfather #father #Motivation #dad #family

We've created a hellscape for our children to live in. But as parents we can control their participation in it. We can also teach them to control these devices and use them for good, and to enhance, not control their lives #risingfather #father #fatherhood #man #discipline

You don't have to prove anything to anyone. You are good enough as is. Unstuck yourself. #risingfather #father #Motivation #gym #gymmotivation #gymlife #disciplined #dad #Brotherhood #manhood

Happiness is what happens when you give yourself hope by crushing inner doubt through action. Happiness is who you are, not what you have or what you eat. This is what we must teach our children, but we must model it first. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational

Life goes quickly looking back even though the days are long. Fill your days with life. Cut out whatever is stealing that from you or build a better ship to take you there. #risingfather #father #fatherhood #man #discipline #disciplined #dad

Words spoken decades ago that still sting and form our identities. Many times those words shape who we are today, then shape how we treat our own children. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational #fatherhood #man #discipline #dad

I'II never be that dad. The one that "used to do awesome things" The fire inside grows hotter each day to push myself further toward my best self. I'm not even close. My best is yet to come. #risingfather #father #fatherhood #discipline #dad #family #manhood

How I show up is 100% within my control. No matter what else is happening in my life, I can still be someone I am proud of. I can still be proud of what I am giving my family. #risingfather #father #fatherhood #man #manhood #discipline #dad #family

If you have kids, EVERY DAY is a battle to be your best. You have one chance to be someone's superhero. #risingfather #father #Motivation #gym #gymmotivation #gymlife #disciplined #dad #Brotherhood #manhood

I'll never be that dad. The one that "Used to do awesome things" The time to rise is NOW. #risingfather #father #Motivation #inspirational #fatherhood #man #discipline #dad

The feeling you get when you make your family members feel great about themselves instead of worse about themselves is beautiful. #risingfather #father #fatherhood #discipline #dad #family #familylife #Brotherhood

Disciplined fathers give their children a path to follow that leads to health, inner peace, and success. #risingfather #father #fatherhood #discipline #dad #Brotherhood #manhood #family

Getting back into X. It's been a while.

"I'm doing this for them" is the most common lie fathers tell themselves to justify absence. They don't want your money nearly as much as they want your mentorship. Do not trade your influence for a paycheck. Clock out and check in. #fatherhood

You don't wake up early just to build muscle; you do it to regulate your emotions. If you don't burn off your stress in the gym, you will likely dump it on your wife and kids later. Sweat it out so you don't lash it out.
