There are two supreme predators on the planet with the most complex brains in nature: humans and orcas. In the 20th century alone, one of these animals killed 200 million members of its own species, the other killed none. Jeffrey Masson’s fascinating new book begins here: There is something different about us. In Beasts he demonstrates that the violence we perceive in the "wild" is mostly a matter of projection. We link the basest human behavior to animals, to "beasts" ("he behaved no better than a beast"), and claim the high ground for our species.

Alone again and working another meaningless job, Johnny Bailey gets an invitation to his son’s wedding. The last time he talked to his son was to see if he could borrow money from him again.

The antidote for that bad luck was usually drinking or some kind of drug, legal or otherwise. But he’s been clean for almost a year. He goes to the meetings. Yet he is clearly losing his mind. Because in his apartment is a man … or not really a man … not just a man.

Most experts would say that anyone can be successful at anything they want if they just put their mind into it. This is easier said than done. Success comes at a cost. And most of the highly successful people reached their success because they were willing to pay the price. They were willing to step out of the box, drop habits that bring them down and develop new ones that improve their life, make necessary changes to their lifestyle, and invest all the effort, right attitude, and morale to keep things going.

This book is a call to fix your eyes and your hope on the Man up on the cross and to find in His selfless sacrifice the perfect example for manliness in our self-indulgent, self-centered society.

"Enoughness" typically refers to a sense of satisfaction or having an adequate amount of something, whether it's material possessions, accomplishments, or personal fulfillment. We all want to be the best we can be. However, our negative inner critic is the disrupter. The average person will have 60,000 to 90,000 thoughts a day. Of those thoughts, 70-85% of our daily thoughts are negative. So who is this negative inner critic spewing false information in our head and driving our behavior all day and night? Well, my friend, it is you.
