[00:00:00]Get ready. It's time to spark you.

[00:00:03][music] >> [music] >> Uh there are men who at times may have not had a great relationship with their mom, but over time recognize they have to do the work and say, "You know what?

[00:00:29]This may have happened in my home life.

[00:00:31]I'm not going to repeat history. I'm going to make sure that I when I meet a woman, I'm going to do right by her."

[00:00:37]When men don't follow their core philosophy, sometimes what happens is they become very me-centered.

[00:00:46]They become disrespectful, renegades, and they tend to follow men who have a loud bullhorn, not necessarily because that guy is right.

[00:01:00]He's the one that has put himself out there as a beacon of hope. And when a man does not have a core philosophy, he will follow a guy who might not have the best character, but is saying something that resonates with him.

[00:01:17]When a man doesn't have a core philosophy, he will take a woman out to dinner. He will order for himself, never taking time to ask her what she would like to have. And then when the bill comes, he's like, "Let's go Dutch."

[00:01:31]Really? Are you kidding me? Because there's no core. And then I'm not saying now, and I know we live in a world where a woman can take a man out to dinner and pay the bill, but it's a respect thing that says, "When I understand who I am at the core, my character shows up."

[00:01:52]>> [music] >> Mhm.
