THE 808 MAN
If You're Leading Your House, What's Leading You?
I had to ask myself that question.
I can love my family and still react from something I haven't dealt with.
I can want connection and still do something that creates distance.
I can know better and still find myself doing what I already know doesn't work.
That's where the 808 Man conversation begins.
Are you an 808 Man?
What Is 808?
You may have seen me wearing 808.
There's meaning behind it.
I AM · THAT · I AM
8 — I AM — Awareness
0 — THAT — Identity
8 — I AM — Experience
It's a reminder of the Law:
Awareness leads. Identity follows. Experience reflects.
When something happens, the question becomes:
What's leading me right now?
Sometimes I see it while it's happening. Sometimes I see it afterward.
Either way, once I see it, I have another opportunity to choose alignment.
That's what 808 reminds me of.
Who Is an 808 Man?
An 808 Man is a student.
He's willing to look at himself, his relationships, his reactions, and his experiences and ask:
What is this showing me?
His wife can teach him something.
His children can teach him something.
Life can teach him something.
ASK MORE. TELL LESS.
Then:
He doesn't have to know everything.
He has to be willing to see.
