Richard Nixon's brutal truth on happiness that hits harder in 2026:
"The unhappiest people in the world are those in the watering places—south coast of France, Newport, Palm Springs, Palm Beach—parties every night, golf every afternoon, bridge, too much drinking, too much talking, too little thinking. Retired, no purpose."
He saw it decades ago: Endless leisure without struggle isn't paradise—it's a slow death of meaning.
"What makes life mean something is purpose, a goal, the battle, the struggle—even if you don't win it."
In an age of quiet quitting, early retirement dreams, and infinite scrolling... Nixon reminds us: The fight is what keeps the soul alive.
What keeps you in the "battle" right now—even when it's exhausting?
She was born into money.
He was a broke young Army lieutenant.
Her father warned her plainly: marry him, and the family fortune will not support you.
Mamie Doud married Dwight Eisenhower anyway.
Denver, Colorado. July 1, 1916.
Mamie was nineteen years old, raised in comfort as the daughter of a successful businessman. She had grown up with servants, security, and every expectation of an easy life.
Dwight had none of that.
He was twenty-five, a West Point graduate living on a modest Army salary, with ambition, discipline, and little else.
They had met only months earlier at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio.
Mamie noticed him across the lawn at a gathering.
Dwight noticed her too.
He pursued her with determined patience. When she went out with other young men, he sometimes waited on her parents’ porch until she returned.
Eventually, she chose him.
On Valentine’s Day 1916, Dwight gave her what he could afford: a miniature version of his West Point class ring.
It was not expensive.
Mamie treasured it anyway.
When Dwight asked her father for permission to marry her, Mr. Doud did not hide his concerns.
Army life would mean small quarters.
Constant moves.
Limited money.
No servants.
No guarantee that Dwight’s career would ever become anything remarkable.
And Mamie would have to live on whatever her husband earned.
She understood.
She said yes.
Their wedding was simple.
No enormous ballroom.
No extravagant display.
After a short honeymoon, Mamie left the world she had known and moved into military housing with her new husband.
The difference was immediate.
The rooms were smaller.
The budget mattered.
Everything had to be managed carefully.
Mamie adapted.
Wherever the Army sent them, she created a home.
She learned to cook, stretch money, pack entire households, make new friends quickly, and start over again every time orders changed.
They jokingly called their home “Club Eisenhower.”
It became known for warmth rather than wealth.
Then came heartbreak.
Their first son, Doud Dwight, called Icky, died of scarlet fever at three years old.
The loss never completely left them.
They raised their second son, John, while Dwight’s military career slowly advanced.
Years passed.
Posts changed.
Wars came.
Dwight rose from an obscure officer to Supreme Allied Commander during World War II.
Mamie remained beside him through the long separations, uncertainty, and demands of military life.
Then, in 1953, thirty-seven years after their modest wedding, Dwight D. Eisenhower became President of the United States.
Mamie became First Lady.
The young woman once warned that marrying an Army lieutenant meant giving up luxury now lived in the White House.
But the story was never really about arriving there.
It was about everything before it.
The tiny quarters.
The moving boxes.
The tight budgets.
The grief.
The waiting.
The faith that the person beside you matters more than the comforts surrounding you.
Mamie and Dwight remained married for fifty-two years, until his death in 1969.
She never treated her youthful decision as a sacrifice.
She had chosen the life she wanted.
Not because she knew Dwight would someday become president.
She could not have known.
She chose him when all he offered was character, ambition, and partnership.
Mamie Eisenhower could have chosen security.
Instead, she chose belief.
And together, they built something no inheritance could ever guarantee.
A life.
Adulting is realizing;
1. You will die, and most people won’t care after a while.
2. People use you until you’re no longer useful.
3. Most people secretly want you to fail.
4. One day you’ll wish you started today.
5. Most people fake happiness while dying inside.
6. No one is coming to save you.
7. You’ll be judged no matter what you do.
8. Your health is your greatest wealth.
9. Happiness is temporary—discipline is permanent.
10. Success takes longer than you think.
11. No one respects weakness, even if they sympathize.
12. Complaining changes nothing.
13. Not everyone you love will love you back.
14. Money won’t solve all your problems—but it solves most.
15. Social media lies to you every day.
16. You’re replaceable at your job.
17. Life is unfair—get used to it.
18. One day, you’ll run out of days.
19. Regret hurts more than failure.
20. Nobody cares about your excuses. Work harder
The earlier you understand this, the better and easier your life gets.
WHAT THE F*CK ARE YOU AFRAID OF
- Death : We’re all gonna die.
- Bankruptcy : You can make it all back.
- Shame : Everyone will forget in a week.
- Rejection : It happens to everyone.
- Failure : It’s part of the path.
- Judgment : They’ll judge anyway.
- Losing people : Not all are meant to stay.
- Making mistakes : You’ll survive them.
- Taking risks : Regret hurts more.
Live every day like it's your last day.
Discipline is boring.
Hard work is boring.
Studying is boring.
Doing the same thing every day is boring.
Bro, if you want to go far in life, learn to be bored, silent, and alone.
A special note to my beautiful wife, her birthday is tomorrow. This year she has shown me not only what it means to be an amazing mother and a wonderful wife but also a loving caregiver for her mother. She has done more than anyone to take care of her mother as we navigate becoming first time parents, moving, and me traveling for work for the first time since 2019. I couldn’t be prouder or more deeply in love 💙

Avila tells me that he will be entering the transfer portal, and will be looking to join a program that is looking to “win now”.
Significant development.
I've been divorced twice, fired 3 times, released 3 times, traded once and gotten 2 DUIs.
Not exactly a highlight reel.
But here's what I've learned: You've prepared for your future through your past if you paid attention to it.
Since 1998, I've been sober.
Since 1999, happily married.
The lows make you appreciate the highs. I appreciate happy because I've been sad.
Every setback can lead to a comeback if you're willing to learn from it.
