After each of "The Fight for Manhood" series we collect an anonymous survey from all the graduates. From the first to the most recent this past Spring - the following are the actual results gathered.  It is truly amazing. What more proof do you need?

Has your involvement with this had a positive impact on your life?
Yes = 100%  No = 0%
(Ok, this might not seem like a big deal.  But remember, these guys have been getting up at 5am for four straight months and dealt with some serious issues.  If THAT can have a positive impact its got to be pretty big.)

Would you recommend going through this to other men you know?
Yes = 100%  No = 0%
(Seriously, does another man recommend many things to the guys he knows unless its something really good?  You don't want to be going around recommending something and then the guy comes back and says "Thanks for that recommendation on that golf course, I wasted a hundred bucks and 6 hours at that dump."  Or something to that affect.  Men don't recommend things unless they absolutely know for sure that its worth it and something they believe they can "vouch for".)

Do you think that this is something that should be done on a semiannual basis - once in the fall and once in the spring - open to whoever wants to come
Yes = 100%  No = 0%
(Originally, this was held just in the Fall, but after we got 100% yes after the first Fall, we moved to two sessions per year.  This continually gets answered 100% yes.  The men think it is so powerful that waiting another 6 months between is too long.  It's needed now)

This next question is pretty revealing.  Once the men graduate from the program they have been involved for 12-16 weeks.  Out of 52 weeks in a year, that's not a whole lot.  This question asks where there has been a positive impact in their life already.  that mean's before they even finished the progam it has already started to impact their lives.  That is important because this isn't something that you hope will work once you get through it.  This is something that starts impacting your life AS YOU GO THROUGH IT.
