Luxuries we forget that are luxuries:
1. Your mom still around
2. Hot water
3. Feeling healthy
4. Peace of mind & heart
5. Perfect weather days
6. Good food
7. Bills paid
8. Reliable transportation
Become a ghost for 6 months.
Make everything your fault.
Find the beast within you.
Throw yourself into pain.
Cut out all the excuses.
Go all in on yourself.
Train like a warrior.
Work like a robot.
Eat like a king.
Reject vices.
Transform.
Upgrade.
Create.
Thrive.
Win.
My dad retired at 59
I will not
He had a pension. I have a 401k I can barely fund.
He bought his house at 28.
I can't touch a down payment at 30.
He paid $90 a month for health insurance. I pay $430.
At dinner he told me I need to be smarter with money.
I nodded.
Didn't tell him his entire life was built on an economy that no longer exists.
Didn't tell him my generation is paying for his Social Security while ours gets gutted.
Didn't tell him the ladder he climbed got pulled up right after him.
Just passed the potatoes.
Make it make sense
Indiana won the National Championship.
Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl.
Knicks are in the NBA Finals.
Apply for your dream job.
Buy your mom a house.
Hit up your crush.
2026 is the year to just go for it all.
Bro, all we need is 1 year:
1. Body of an ATHLETE.
2. Mind of a STRATEGIST.
3. Discipline of a SOLDIER.
4. Vision of a KING.
5. Patience of a FARMER.
6. Heart of a POET.
7. Focus of a MONK.
BEFORE YOU DIE AS A MAN, DO THIS:
- See your 6-pack once.
- Deadlift 2x your bodyweight.
- Do 10 pull-ups straight.
- Travel solo.
- Quit something that's killing you. Job. Habit. Relationship.
- Build something of your own. Business. Project.
Doesn't matter. Just yours.
- Be the fittest in your group at 40.
- Wake up at 45 with no medications.
- Look in the mirror feeling proud and inspired.
