I decided yesterday (February 6) that I would not use any social media platforms for two months. My reasons were pretty straight forward: 1. I want to be more creative, and that doesn’t come when you are consuming all the time. In recent...
Who are You?# Cowboy. Astronaut. Billionaire. These are just titles. When you introduce yourself to someone, what is the first question that is asked? “What do you do?” It is pervasive in our culture. Most people will answer with...
I write this article tongue in cheek. The things that I am saying were common knowledge to our ancestors, yet we seem to have forgotten the way. To be “rebellious” is to go against the grain. It is to be disenfranchised with what you...
Upon reading an article I don’t know how I stumbled upon by Drew Devault You’ve been there before. That article that you loved was removed, and you have no way of seeing it again. Or that Youtube video you referenced that helped you...
If you want to change how you look at time, break it down. A lifetime is inconcievable for a human being, a year seems like a long time, and a week (especially when we’re waiting for something) can feel as long as that year. We don’t get...
I’m Dying. There, I said it. Now you know. Now you are in on the big secret. Here’s the thing: you are too. “But Josh, I’m not dying!!” Maybe not tomorrow, or in a month, or a year, or even 10 years. But, one fact remains: each and every...
So many people today are building sandcastles that will be swept away the minute that another person decides that they aren’t beautiful. What I mean by this is perfectly demonstrated by building a following on social media platforms (or...
“You may never walk again.” I remember those words like they were yesterday. Your life can change in an instant, and I am the poster child for that. As a 20 year old kid, life in a wheelchair is something that never crosses your mind....
How to Start Your Own Podcast# There is pretty much nothing that I have done in my life that has helped my own personal growth and relationships as much as starting a podcast. Not only is it a creative outlet, it’s a way to meet awesome...
A shorter post today, but the concept is not to be taken lightly. I am presenting you with the key in making amazing gains, all by getting only a slight bit better each day at whatever it is you are pursuing. I’ve made a post about...

The Way we Are# The alarm goes off in the morning, we turn to it, hit snooze, and fall back asleep. It’s far easier to eat that doughnut on the way to work than to get up 15 minutes earlier to make a healthy breakfast. You’ll go to the...
You can be your own Hero We wait for salvation. We wait for that person to come and save us from the plight that we have gotten ourselves into. Time and time again, we hope for miracles. Looking outside ourselves for the answers to all...
It is apparent to me that truth almost always falls somewhere between the extremes. When there is emotional arguments from either side, the reality is that of the centrist. The rational observer, the thinker and the doer. When we are...
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act but a habit.— Will Durant A quote often wrongly attributed to Aristotle, this quote is exemplary of this article’s focus. In Ray Dalio’s Principles (which I recommend you read...
