This guy is a freak of nature. Runs 200 mile races in the desert, with injuries. Self declared ‘baddest motherfucker’. What an inspiring guy!

  1. You have been preoccupied by bullshit for way too long and letting things fester. Switch your focus to things that will slingshot you forward.
  2. Record yourself speaking unfiltered truth or bully/abuse/negativity - and relisten to it. Screenshot/record negative comments, use it as fuel/motivation
  3. Ego is an amazing force, makes it more tempting to coast. Praise has a downside + soothes the inner savage.
  4. Life is built on seconds you must win, repeatedly, e.g. Alarm clock, food choice, beer or water, book or TV. You need to be ready to win those seconds.
  5. I don’t give a fuck what you did yesterday. Respect is earned every day, embracing the suck like you have nothing and have never done a damn thing in your life.
