The Guy in the Glass: Six questions to see the man you were meant to be

A man walks into a bar… What’s your name? What do you do? Come here often? Are you single? What’s your number? How are you getting home? Questions every man asks and answers a thousand times before midlife hits. And you have all the lines—smooth, practiced, ready for any moment. Or do you? Because somewhere by what Dante called the dark woods of midlife, those old answers start to crack. You grow tired of the rote responses. You stop wanting to play the same empty game. You’ve lived too much, lost too much, and you’re hungry for more: more meaning, more purpose in the precious time you’ve got left. The slings of misfortune, the arrows of betrayal— they change a man. The masks from the first half no longer fit. The identities you once clung to become suffocating. In this book—part parable, part guidebook, part memoir—Baruch HaLevi, logotherapist, men’s coach, Enneagram teacher, and rabbi, reimagines each of these old barroom questions. Through the honest lens of midlife, they become something far deeper than pick-up lines. They become mirrors of the soul—signposts pointing us toward the men we were meant to become. Not perfect, but present. Not performing, but participating. Not reacting, but responding. Step into these pages and take a seat in a bar unlike any other. Meet the patrons whose stories offer hard-won wisdom for the second half of life, and rediscover what Dr. Viktor Frankl called “the defiant power of the human spirit.”
