The Standard of a Man: What You Do When Nobody Is Watching

What makes a man?Not money. Not muscles. Not a title. Not what he says when everyone is watching.A man is measured by the standard he keeps when nobody is watching.The Standard of a Man is a direct, practical guide to character, accountability, discipline, responsibility, and the kind of leadership that begins with the man in the mirror.Through short, easy-to-read lessons, real-life situations, reflection questions, and powerful illustrations, Felipe Rodriguez challenges men to stop chasing perfection and start building a stronger personal standard.Inside, you'll discover 12 standards: - Keep Your Word - Take Responsibility - Show Up - Control Yourself - Do the Hard Thing - Admit When You're Wrong - Take Care of Your People - Treat People With Respect - Learn to Lose - Ask for Help - Leave Something Behind - Become the ExampleThis is not a book about pretending to have everything figured out.It is about becoming the kind of man who can look in the mirror and respect the person looking back.A man who owns his mistakes.A man who keeps his promises.A man who shows up for his family.A man who knows when to lead, when to listen, when to apologize, and when to get back up.Whether you are a father, husband, leader, young man finding your way, or simply someone determined to become better than you were yesterday, The Standard of a Man will challenge you to ask one important question: If the people I love followed my example, would I be proud of the people they became?You do not have to be perfect.But you do have to take responsibility for the man you are becoming.Raise your standard. Live it daily. Become the example.
