Speak No Evil - Fierce Gentlemans Stories

‘Speak no evil’

The following is a guest post by Everest Eastman (a very Fierce name).

Thank you, Everest, for contributing to the Fierce Gentlemans Movement with this Fierce Father & Husband story.

My challenge as a husband and a father was being a Loving man. All my actions prior to understanding the principle of Love led me to an unproductive life.  I took shortcuts to success in relationship and work.  I spat Hate when things didn’t go as I imagined, and Suffering ruled my life.

FUBAR!

I made a Stand to face the truth about my shitty ways.  I decided to never talk bad about people and work no matter what.  It didn’t take long for me to experience Love from Within.

Rebirth!

Here are the results from acting with my best self: 

  1. Because I stopped bringing home negative experiences (real or imagined), my wife is glad I’m home sharing love and deepening our relationship.
  2. Because I choose to be centered and at peace, my children are at ease being themselves.
  3. Because I choose to operate out of sense of gratitude and purpose, my business is stabilizing and given a chance for growth.

Choosing to ‘Speak No Evil’ has given me the power of personal responsibility.
