Your greatest test will always be how your handle those that disrespect you.


Today’s Mantra

I AM an Instrument of peace & love..
Love and peace flows through me.
Love and peace through me and into the world.
The energy I send out into the collective matters
and makes a monumental difference.


Discipline is the art of choosing between what you want now and what you want most.

The Corner of 8th & Insanity

Empty your mind.. Silence and stillness will unlock the boundless potential within your mind and your spirit. The stillness will help you access the limitless realms of concisousness, gain inner peace, and uncover the hidden wisdom within yourself. I know exactly what you’re thinking and why you are smiling right now. Slow down, meditate, breathe. There is no rush. It took a while to get to the root of it. But you got it now.


10 habits of highly effective Fathers.

1) Spend some time alone every day. Use this to fill your own cup, whatever works for you. Give time to yourself. Ideally, wake up before the sunrise. Walk, breathe & Sit.

2) Exorcise min 4-5x a week. Balance between mobility, flexible and strength. Heavy weights, HIIT and mobility/flexibility work. Set the example of what a healthy man looks like.

3) No phones at dinner table, no exceptions. Bonus points for going full no phones when you're around your kids at all (hard to be perfect on this, we shoot for about 90%) Ultimate goal is to leave the cell phone at the desk and minimal time with it in the evenings.

4) Eat and chew food slowly. Chewing food slowly is way in practicing gratitude.

5) Make your wife & kids laugh, every single day. Laughter is the best medicine.

6) Praise your kids in front of others. "Secondhand praise" is one of the most powerful builders of their self-image. Make sure they hear you do it.

7) Compliment your wife in front of others. Bonus points if she hears the compliment.

8) Read to your kids every single night. No exceptions.

9) Speak words of affirmation to your kids every single day. No exceptions. People claim you can "overdo" this, I don't buy it. Say you believe in them. Say you're proud of them, and mean it.

10) Verbalize your gratitude every single day. Don't just write it down in a trendy "gratitude journal". Your subconscious needs to hear the words coming out of your mouth. Say it in front of your wife and kids. "I'm so glad I get to be here with you. I'm so grateful." Simple.

Breathe in.
Say it with me,
Just one more time..
I need only to worry about that which I can control.

Live Fearless. Not Reckless. LFG.
