The heavier you lift, the more muscle you build.
The more muscle you build, the more calories you burn at rest.
The more calories you burn at rest, the more you can eat without storing fat.
The more you can eat without storing fat, the more energy you have every day.
The more energy you have every day, the heavier you can lift.
The heavier you lift, the more muscle you build.
Remember this loop.

All your problems will disappear if you have more energy.
Everything is possible.
Nothing is impossible.
That means having an infinite amount of energy = effortless results.
To increase your energy, you must fully focus on your inner being. Don’t worry about your outer self - it will reflect how you feel within.
Anything you do must always benefit you in one way or another. That also applies to helping other creatures, because doing something good for others makes your heart purer, which allows you to radiate life force.
¡Rompan el puto ciclo! Si no tuvieron buenos amigos, sean uno. Si no han tenido buenas parejas, sean una. Si no han tenido buenos padres, buenos hermanos, sean uno. Este mundo está hecho un asco. Rompan el ciclo. Sean su propia revolución.
you have no f*cking idea how powerful you actually are.
and i don’t mean that in some cheesy “believe in yourself” way.
i mean most people have absolutely no idea what they’re capable of because they’ve never pushed themselves far enough to find out.
you might think you’re bad at math. bad at speaking. bad at learning. bad at business. maybe you’ve failed at something so many times that you’ve started believing you’re just not made for it.
but what if you’re wrong?
what if you’re not actually incapable? what if you’ve just never given yourself enough time, enough practice, or enough belief to find out what you can really do?
i’ve seen people who genuinely believed they were terrible at studys walk into a classroom convinced they couldn’t understand anything, and eventually walk out with an A.
how does that happen?
because something changes when you stop telling yourself “i can’t do this” and start asking “how do i learn this?”
you start paying attention differently.
you try again instead of quitting.
you look for another way when the first one doesn’t work.
you stop treating failure as proof that you’re stupid and start treating it as information.
and confidence matters here more than people realize.
not because confidence magically makes you intelligent, but because believing you can learn makes you much more willing to actually learn.
think about it.
if you walk into a class thinking “i’m terrible at thus,” every difficult problem becomes evidence that you’re right.
but if you walk in thinking “i don’t understand this yet, but i can learn it,” the exact same problem becomes something you can work through.
same brain.
just different belief.
you probably have abilities sitting inside you right now that you’ve never discovered simply because you decided too early that you weren’t capable of something.
maybe you’re smarter than you think.
maybe you’re more disciplined than you think.
maybe you can learn things you currently believe are completely beyond you.
you won’t know until you try.
so stop being so quick to define yourself by your past.
you failed at something?
fine.
that tells you what happened.
it doesn’t tell you what happens next.
there’s a version of you that is much more capable than the person you currently believe yourself to be.
you just haven’t met that version yet.
and maybe the only thing standing between you and that person is actually believing you can become them.
Churro Cheesecake Bars
Servings: 12 bars
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30–35 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes (plus chilling)
Ingredients
For the Crust:
2 cans (8 oz each) refrigerated crescent roll dough
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp ground cinnamon
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
Make the bottom crust. Unroll one can of crescent dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared pan, sealing the seams. Brush with half the melted butter.
Make the filling. Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Add the egg and beat just until combined — don't overmix.
Assemble. Spread cheesecake filling evenly over the bottom crust. Unroll the second can of crescent dough and place on top of the filling, gently stretching to cover and sealing the seams. Brush with remaining melted butter.
Add cinnamon sugar. Mix sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle evenly over the top crust. Some will soak into the butter and some will stay on top for that classic churro crunch.
Bake for 30–35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center is just set with a slight jiggle. It will firm up as it cools.
Cool and chill. Let cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) for cleanest slicing.
Serve. Lift out using parchment overhang. Cut into 12 squares. Dust with extra cinnamon sugar if desired.
Tips
Seal crescent seams well — any gaps and the filling leaks through during baking.
Don't overbake — the center should still have a slight wobble when you pull it out; it sets firm in the fridge.
Cold cheesecake slices cleaner — warm bars will squish and lose their layers.
Variations
Add a layer of dulce de leche or caramel sauce under the cheesecake filling.
Mix mini chocolate chips into the cheesecake batter.
Drizzle with melted chocolate or a simple glaze for extra indulgence.
Recess exists because two writers lost a fight over how mean Angelica Pickles should be.
Paul Germain co-created Rugrats. His son inspired Tommy. Angelica came from a real bully in his childhood, and he wanted to write her that way. His team started penning darker episodes exploring why a three-year-old torments the babies.
Co-creator Arlene Klasky hated it. She thought Angelica was too cruel and the storylines too mature. Critics praised those exact episodes. The rift over one cartoon character split the creative team behind the biggest kids' show on TV.
So Germain walked. He took Joe Ansolabehere, story editor of the first 65 Rugrats episodes, straight to Disney.
Their new show kept the same core trick, kids running a hidden society adults never see, and aged it up to fourth grade. Germain named the school after Third Street, the real elementary school his own kids attended. The playground ran like a prison yard out of The Great Escape, complete with a king and a warden.
It premiered on ABC 29 years ago this week and became the network's biggest Saturday morning hit of the late 90s. The 2001 movie pulled $44.5M.
Two of the defining cartoons of the 90s, and the wall between them is an argument about a cartoon toddler.
If you write down positive thoughts and healing words, and speak them over yourself consistently, your life begins to move in the direction of those words.
I can’t explain it, but there’s power in the words we speak over our lives.
