Gentleman Warrior - There is no simple definition for a modern-day Gentleman Warrior, however, it should encompass a mindset of what the modern man aspires to be. Striving to be a Gentleman Warrior is a constant journey of self-improvement in finding the delicate balance between the two.

Any man can be a Gentleman, but It is no small undertaking. It is a constant journey of self-improvement rather than a destination.

Characteristics of a Gentleman:

Integrity – complete honesty with themselves and others
High Standards for them self’s and others they associate with
Recognition of their imperfection
Interesting and informed
Good Manners – courteous, polite, respectful
Actions match their words
Well Dressed
Confident without arrogance

Being a Warrior is a different calculous and I would suggest that not all men are capable of harnessing the warrior spirit within them although a true gentleman would recognize the grave importance to do so. Warriors exist to protect the lives and wellbeing of others; to protect nations and borders and to confront evil when others will not. A warrior is completely focused, disciplined, and aggressive not out of selfishness, but on behalf of others.

Characteristics of a Warrior:

Physically fit, capable, and ready
Highly values loyalty
Courageous
Fights for justice
Determined
High morals and strong ethics
Protective of those they love
Embraces uncertainty
Earthy and Grounded
Ability to control aggression
Does not seek attention
Naturally gets along with other warriors
Strong self-discipline
Compassionate

A good place to start in explaining the mindset of the Gentleman Warrior is with Lieutenant Colonel David Grossman’s book On Combat, published in 2004.

In the book Grossman explains that there are three types of people in the world – Wolves, Sheep and Sheepdogs.

“If you have no capacity for violence then you are a healthy productive citizen: a sheep. If you have a capacity for violence and no empathy for your fellow citizens, then you have defined an aggressive sociopath—a wolf. But what if you have a capacity for violence, and a deep love for your fellow citizens? Then you are a sheepdog, a warrior, someone who is walking the hero’s path.”

The modern-day Gentleman Warrior must have the Sheepdog mentality and be willing and capable to confront the Wolf in whatever manner or form they appear. This ability and mindset are what sets apart the Gentleman from the Gentleman Warrior – The Sheep from the Sheepdog.

Inspire yourself and others and carry yourself as a

Gentleman Warrior

“Man is never so manly as when he feels deeply, acts boldly and expresses himself with frankness and with fervor.” –Benjamin Disraeli
