You have abdicated. You have spent years letting your children run over you. You have spent years letting your wife run over you.

You have defaulted to the default. No vision. No drive. Just a hunk of flesh who earns a paycheck then lies on the couch watching TV. You never stand up to your wife. You let your kids disrespect you. The house is a mess.

But you are ready to change.

Because you are a husband and a father. You have been invested with real authority, and you don’t want to squander it anymore.

You want to lead. Like you are supposed to.

So what do you do? How do you get out of this spiral?
