Most people think being “good” is about having good intentions. It’s not. It’s about discipline, action, and making choices that actually matter. It's about being extraordinary.

This isn’t a feel-good seminar, self-improvement fad, . **The Goodly Group** is a no-BS, high-level gathering for those who want to master themselves and live with purpose. We cut through the noise, challenge common myths, and focus on real strategies for becoming extraordinary.

**What You’ll Get:**

* **The Four Core Pillars of a Good Life** – The foundation for real, lasting success and continued excellence.
* **Why Radical Honesty is the Only Path to Fulfillment** – No lies, no excuses, no illusions.
* **How to Build an Identity That Endures** – Strength over validation.
* **The Difference Between Being Nice and Being Good** – And why most get it wrong.
* **Daily Tactics to Apply Virtue in Real Life** – No fluff, just results.

**Who This Is For:**

* People who want real, lasting change—not just motivation.
* Leaders (or future leaders) who want to be **respected, not just liked**.
* Anyone ready to stop making excuses and start taking action.

This isn’t a passive discussion. Expect to be challenged. Expect to grow. If you do not participate, you will be removed from the group.
We meet **three times a week**. **Sunday at 9 AM, Tuesday at 8:30 PM, Friday at Noon. All times ET.**

Bring a journal; you’ll need it.

The Goodly Group Sunday Meeting

Online event

These meetings are a space for **deep self-reflection, open discussion, and shared accountability.** Participants engage in conversations about journaling, challenge their assumptions, and support one another in the pursuit of radical honesty and personal mastery. Each session follows a structured format:

* **Grounding Reflection** – A brief meditation or centering exercise to sharpen focus.
* **Journaling Insights** – Participants share breakthroughs, struggles, and reflections from their week.
* **Focused Exploration** – A deep dive into a key theme from *The Honesty Experiment*.
* **Commitment to Action** – Setting real, measurable goals to apply insights in daily life.

**This isn’t passive. It’s a space for accountability, challenge, and real change.** Bring your journal—and expect to leave with a sharper mind and clearer purpose.

THE Reflection Session: Honest Growth & Accountability

**Parents, i**f something happened to you tomorrow…
**Who would raise your kids?**
If you don’t have a will, the court decides.

On **May 10th**, the day before Mother’s Day, come to **Main Street Grill** and get a **free will** that names who you trust to care for your kids. It takes **15 minutes** and all you need are **two names, ideally primary and backup guardian and conservators**:

* Guardian is who you’d want to **raise them**; and
* Conservator is who you’d want to **manage money for them**.

**Don’t have both names yet? That’s okay.**
We’ll help you figure it out. Showing up is the important part.

**WHEN:** Saturday, May 10th; 10:00 am
**WHERE:** Main Street Grill & Tavern, Milford
**COST:** Totally free
**Bonus**: Free mimosas!!

### **About The Goodly Group**


**Journaling isn’t just writing; it’s a tool for transformation.** The Goodly Group is a community for those who want to break through obstacles, gain clarity, and take control of their lives through structured, no-BS journaling.

Founded by **Eric Ruth, author of *Ruthless* and co-creator of *The Goodly Dozen***, this group is built on **honesty, accountability, and real growth**. It's none of the fluff or toxic positivity you'll find at your grandmother's church group. Whether you're new to journaling or deep into the process, you'll find **real conversations, real support, and real results.**

Join us for **weekly support space to connect with others who are serious about personal change.** No excuses. No pretense. Just writing that works.
