My Dad lost both his legs in the second world war. He was fighting in Italy, near Messina, when him and two friends stood on an anti-personnel mine. My Dad had one leg off at the knee, and the other one above the knee, about mid-thigh. He had shrapnel embedded in his hands and arms for his whole life.

A couple of days later, in hospital, my Dad realised that he had a decision to make: he either had to decide to make the best of what life had given him, or he could decide to feel sorry for himself and the unfairness of life and become a miserable person. He decided to make the best of his life.

The term Metrosexual first originated in 1994 and was used to describe a single man living in the city, because that’s where all the shops are, with a high disposable income. But there is so much more to being a man with good taste.

Metro male - A sense of self style
Men like David Beckham, Jude Law and Ryan Seacrest are all great examples of Metrosexual men. They have a sense of style, and although all are still very manly in their ways, they do it with more sophistication.

The picture you carry of yourself is what you will see happen in your life. That is the reason some people never move any higher than 10 or 12 dollars an hour. They would love to get an increase, but inside, they see themselves as a 12 dollar an hour earner. Where do you see yourself?

When young people discuss their jobs one of the first questions is usually, “How much an hour does it pay?” I know for a number of years that is what I looked at in finding a new job; how much an hour would I earn?

Keeping marriage is the real challenge of a family life. At first, it is all about the bliss of having someone you see beside you when you wake up, having someone who can take care of you and whom you can take care with, and having someone to fulfill dreams and goals together.

These elements are part of a marriage, but if a couple does not know how to handle them, it is easy to fail the relationship and eventually end it up to divorce.

Last week my friend Anthony was in the middle of his leave from the Marines before he went back for his third tour in Iraq. One night he was out partying with some friends in a major American city, sucking-up as much freedom as he could before he’d have to face the daily fear, gunshots and the constant possibility of death. It was about midnight as he was walking back to his car, when out of the darkness; three young men appeared and stuck guns in his face, demanding money.
