Wow. I’m blown away by this review. “The Alchemist” is my favorite book of all time.

[Craig Stanland @CraigStanland]

Even though I was thriving in my professional ambition, I was living half a life.

In reality, I wasn’t thriving; I was merely surviving.

So I explored this subject in my latest article for the @GoodMenProject

It’s been just over 4 years since my last drink.

And what amazes me most is that I don’t miss it at all.

I explore the path I took to sobriety in my latest article for the @GoodMenProject

We’re conditioned to live in a transaction:

Do the work (Y), get the result (X), and feel fulfilled (Z).

But the transaction is flawed.

I explore the transaction (and what I do now instead) in my latest article for the @GoodMenProject

@JamesAshcroft @EricJorgenson @jaltucher It’s so good. I’m a big fan of Kamal’s other books as well. Live Your Truth and Rebirth.

[Craig Stanland @CraigStanland]

Everyone says confidence is the first step.

But that’s not how it worked for me.

I didn’t publish my book, step on the TEDx stage, or start speaking for a living because I was confident.

I wrote about it here in @GoodMenProject

I’m blown away that Blank Canvas made this list alongside some of my all-time favorites—and a few I’m now adding to my reading list.

Huge thanks to @EricJorgenson and @jaltucher for the shoutout, I'm grateful and honored.

That guy @jaltucher reads a lot.

Some of the most impactful books ever written have been indie or self-published.

Here is his list.

Scribe published "Blank Canvas," and I've had the honor of interviewing the author, @CraigStanland.

"I want to be happy.”

Ask someone what they want, and that’s the answer ninety-nine times out of one hundred."

My latest article for the @GoodMenProject dives deep into the topic of happiness.

I had an NDE, this episode is fascinating. I look forward to reading your new book @sebastianjunger @jaltucher

[Craig Stanland @CraigStanland]

When someone tells you can't achieve your goals, it's usually not a judgement against you, it's their self-judgement projected at you.

Big difference.

[Craig Stanland @CraigStanland]

Living authentically.

My latest article for the @GoodMenProject is now live.

Here's an excerpt:

"I was living entirely out of alignment with my true nature, and no external would or could ever solve for that."
