The Way of the Superior Man

I just finished reading a book by David Dieda called The Way of the Superior Man. This is an amazing book for masculine men that are in relationships. In my opinion, it's an amazing book for life too. The basic premise is as follows: Find a major life purpose, and make that your priority. And, learn to love your woman and feminine energy from your core. That's it.

I have some issues though with the book. Sometimes I feel like I'm a masculine male, while at other times, I feel like I'm more feminine. With my ex, I think about her a lot, and I want love from her while she is the one that didn't want a relationship as much, or knows that she can find another fairly fast. I think overall that I'm a masculine male because I get turned on by the feminine, but at the same time, I'm a little bit effeminate. I'm not sure if I should dive more into the masculine side though. I do know that Dieda is right when he says that I will feel more attune with focusing on my greater life purpose. While he says that your woman is secondary to that, I feel like my girl should mean everything to me. The book basically does say that she should be everything to you but with your love, but understand that your life purpose is more important than her and that she will respect you for that.

Women have been a priority in my life for a long time. It's hard to see myself have less of a want for a relationship, but I'm starting to see that it is less of a desire when I'm focused on my life purpose, and for me, that's business and my business goals, like starting my own company, or being a corporate executive.

Is there anyone that didn't like the book? and why? If you enjoyed the book, how has it helped you?
