Man needs to be Bold and Something Worthwhile Doing

I recently learnt that as a man, we ought to be bold in the things we do.
Not to be rash or irrational, however, sometimes its a thin line that we may cross over which may hurt others around us. Nevertheless, I realized the drive in which men have or is designed with, requires a certain level of boldness to activate it.

I have a friend who naturally has a soft personality. Everything he does is done gently and slowly. And there seems to be a problem. He's trying to lose weight, but he simply can't lose anymore even though he exercised or changed his diet. My conclusion, there is not enough drive in his life to burn the excess 'fats' or food in his body.

Therefore, if you are a man, and you would like to lose weight, you ought to learn to be bolder in the things you do, in the decisions you make.

p.s. I am making an assumption here. No theories what-so-ever. But in my life and some other people's lives, I do see ourselves eat much more than our 'diet-brothers', and yet, we maintain a more stable weight/size ratio than them.

Since I have not written for a while, I thought sharing 2 lessons will be appropriate...

I went out to hang-out late night on a Friday evening. I Stay in the western part of the island while most of my friends stay either in the north, north-east and eastern part of the land. Considering the cost of the hang-out, I felt that it wasn't at all appealing. even my way back using taxi costs more than my drinks and food combined!

As I Was going home on a taxi, I couldn't stop thinking about what made me do what I did and whether it was worthwhile.

My conclusion, simple: It was worth every while of it because I am not doing it for myself, but for the benefit of the unity in the group of friends. Plus, it was once in a long while hang-out which, it may be a good opportunity to bond and grow closer in our relationship with one another.

p.s. I drank Pina Colada last night. Interesting drink, and I slept very well after that!

Definition:

A tropically flavored alcoholic beverage made with coconut cream, pineapple juice, and rum. The coconut-pineapple flavor has also become popular ...

The earliest reference to a drink called a piƱa colada containing rum, coconut cream and pineapple juice, occurred in the April 16, 1950, edition of the New York Times:

Drinks in the West Indies range from Martinique's famous rum punch to Cuba's pina colada (rum, pineapple chunks and coconut milk). Key West has a variety of lime swizzles and punches, and Granadians use nutmeg in their rum drinks.
