Gentlemen, welcome to the ultimate guide for crushing it as a young man. This isn’t just a blog post—it’s a battle cry for those ready to seize control, live authentically, and build a legacy that echoes through time. I’m 37, I’ve lived in mansions and on the streets, and I’ve learned one truth: You are the architect of your destiny. Let’s dive into the mindset, habits, and strategies that will make you unstoppable.
Gratitude: Fuel for the Soul
Sleeping In: Waking up recharged, ready to conquer the day.
Morning Strolls: Grounding myself in the rhythm of nature.
The Sun: A daily reminder to shine bright and radiate energy.
Gratitude isn’t soft—it’s strategic. It rewires your brain to focus on what’s working, giving you the clarity to attack your goals.
Proud Moments: Celebrate the Wins
Crushed it by prioritizing rest and listening to my body.
Took action on a lingering dental issue—because men don’t procrastinate.
Moved into a new apartment that’s a fortress for healing and growth.
Every win, no matter how small, is a brick in the empire you’re building. Stack them daily.
Emotions: The Pulse of Greatness
Creative: My mind’s on fire, ready to craft something extraordinary.
Curious: Hungry to learn, evolve, and dominate new challenges.
Focused: Laser-locked on what moves the needle forward.
Emotions aren’t weaknesses—they’re signals. Harness them to drive your mission.
Intention: The North Star
Focus. No distractions, no excuses. Every day, I’m taking deliberate steps toward my vision. You should too.
Connections: Build Your Tribe
Reconnected with three legends from my past, including Jesse Itzler and my mom. Surrounding myself with people who fuel my fire and believe in my vision. Your network is your net worth. Choose allies who push you to level up.
Lessons: Wisdom from the Grind
A fresh nail trim is a small act of self-respect that sparks confidence. The gut-brain connection is real—clean up your diet, and your mind will follow. Procrastination is the enemy of progress. If it’s lingering, kill it. Knowledge without action is useless. Apply what you learn, and watch your life transform.
Exercise: Forge a Warrior’s Body Morning Walk: Clears the mind and primes the body. Push-Ups: Builds strength and discipline, no gym required. Your body is your temple. Train it daily, and it’ll carry you to greatness.
The Mission: Live Authentically, No Apologies
Life is a high-stakes adventure, and I’m all in. Two years of homelessness—mansions, beaches, streets—taught me to choose myself over money, love, or society’s expectations. The world may scream one thing, but I’m deaf to it. My vision is clear: authenticity, impact, and unrelenting growth.
Health: The Foundation of Power
At 37, I’m in some of the best shape of my life because I treat my body like a machine. My new apartment is a sanctuary—better sleep, less stress. I’m tackling potential mold issues in my old place with ruthless action: walls repainted, inspections scheduled. No sneezing, no excuses—my health is non-negotiable.
Diet? Clean as hell. Sugar’s gone, gluten’s on its way out. I’m planning a 24-hour fast to reset and a parasite cleanse to optimize my gut. Why? Because your gut and brain are wired together. Inflammation’s down, but I’m not stopping. A 30-day sugar cleanse might be next. The sauna’s my secret weapon—sweating out toxins, sharpening my edge.
Tomorrow’s doctor’s visit is a progress report. In 2.5 weeks, I’ve transformed my diet, sleep, and mindset. That’s not luck—that’s discipline.
Creativity: Your Superpower
Writing is my weapon, my therapy, my legacy. I don’t care if one person or a million read this—it’s who I am. Every word I write is a step toward inspiring humanity. You have a gift too—whether it’s writing, building, or leading. Use it. Two hours of focused creation daily will build the life you dream of.
We can move mountains or stay stuck. The choice is yours. I’m choosing to create, to love, to be a beacon of light in a world full of noise.
The Big Questions
What’s your purpose? How do you travel the world on a dime? How do you chase dreams that scare you? How do you love fiercely, create relentlessly, and defy the status quo? These are the questions that define us. Here’s how to answer them:
Find Meaning: Your purpose is where your passion meets the world’s needs. Travel Smart: Live lean, prioritize experiences, and hustle for opportunities. Chase Dreams: Set weekly goals, break them into daily actions, and execute. Defy the Norm: Say no to what doesn’t serve you. Be unapologetically you. Love Deeply: Build real connections, forgive the past, and lead with heart. Create a Legacy: Every day is a chance to leave a mark. Act like it.
The Playbook: How to Be a Top 1% Man
You’re ambitious, and ready to dominate. Here’s the blueprint: Own Your Health: Eat clean (no sugar, minimal gluten), exercise daily, and prioritize sleep. Try a 24-hour fast or sauna session to level up. Master Your Mind: Gratitude and focus are your anchors. Journal daily to stay sharp. Take Action: Procrastination is death. If it’s on your mind, tackle it today. Build Your Tribe: Surround yourself with high-vibe people who challenge and inspire you. Create Every Day: Two hours of focused work—writing, building, hustling—will change your life. Stay Authentic: The world will try to box you in. Break the mold and live your truth. Embrace the Grind: Small steps daily lead to massive results. Consistency is king.
The Final Word
We’re in 2025, and the clock’s ticking. I’ve been homeless, I’ve been broken, but I’m still here, building an empire of authenticity and impact. You can play it safe and get the same results as everyone else—or you can go all in on yourself. Be bold. Be different. Be relentless. This is the adventure. Write your story. Create your legacy. To infinity and beyond. Boom, baby, boom.
