Life Updates
GREAT QUESTION. First of all, my bad for not writing a post for like 8 months. Whoops. I like being an open book on the internet. It’s freeing to dump your brain where anybody can see it, criticize it, or applaud it. Also, I actually do read some of my old stuff every now and then. Fun to see which ideas stick, and which come and go. * I’m always operating on what I think is best based on my…
This post will consist of my coping as to why I’m not a billionaire… Kidding, let’s see what it turns into. My Situation I’m about to leave Costa Rica for October (peak rainy season) to do some adventuring. Here’s what I own - 2 boardshorts 1 pair of sweats, 1 pair of sweatshorts 1 pair of underwear Yoga Mat 1 pair of jeans Computer 5.5 T-shirts Vans with holes 2 snapped boards A baseball bat,…
I’ve been on a Billionaires yacht for the past 11 days. Tweet Version: Think LONG TERM in everything. What does your life look like at 85? People are your business. Know who you are and how other people can compliment your abilities Solve problems 20 years in the future. Failure is learning. You’ll eventually run out of ways to fail! Let’s explore my thoughts. I’m going to write for at least 10…
The tradeoff Rich and anonymous - possibly boring. Rich and famous-probably annoying. A Quote living rent-free in my head - “Avoidance of boredom is the only worthy mode of action. Life otherwise is not worth living” - Taleb - Favorite author- yet blocked by him on Twitter Notice, being rich is definitely a goal. Perhaps money reveals who you truly are. I wouldn’t know yet. And if you say you…
“Perhaps all the luck will make another baby soon” — Last Article You ever wonder if you hit rock bottom? The answer has to be no if you’re still wondering right? Definitely found rocks on this bottom… I was pretty damn broke after my drive to Costa Rica. I was making maybe $200 dollars a month, maxed my credit card, surviving off eggs and rice, and living out of a tent. Fine, I wasn’t completely…
My Journey Driving from San Diego to Costa Rica Without much family approval, I embarked on a life-changing mission. A mission with no return plans and no end date, but the mission was clear; Get as much baseball gear into the hands of the Nicaraguan people ( details ). Why? I had an itch to scratch. Ideas annoy me until they are realized. I had stoke to spread and waves to see. The trip was…
(Don’t do it) Here’s why the last 2 girls I’ve loved don’t have a ring on their finger. Love, lust, fling, fun, whatever you want to call it, my last two connections taught me one main lesson. Terms aside, I liked these girls a lot. I went on two grand adventures to chase them, both ended with heartbreak. Grand Adventure #1 My buddy Brock and I bicycled from Oregon to Tijuana . After 23 days of…
On the verge of my 28th birthday, I’ve decided to write down 10 pieces of advice that live rent-free in my brain. Enjoy, engage, and please add your own. 1. Thou shalt entertain thyself. Ever run the thought experiment of what you’d do with unlimited cash flow? What would you actually do? I’m on a forever quest to rack up as many experiences as I can in my short time on this planet, and I ask…
DIY Ironman Girls Make Me Do Crazy Things… Years ago, my crush ran a half marathon. I got pissed and ran one on the sand the next day. A couple years ago, I read (listened to) a book about some guy who biked from Oregon to South America. This book must’ve planted a seed, a jealousy seed, somewhere deep inside my brain. If that guy can do that, so could I… right? Idk better go find out. The seed…
I’ve been screwing with my diet lately. I’m no health, workout, or spiritual guru. Not in the least. I’m a normal, curious man on a mission to discover my highest self. This journey can’t even start unless you’re in health. Unfortunately, my wealth of knowledge is vast, aka just scratching the surface of many topics when it comes to wellness. I say unfortunately because sometimes I wish I knew…
7 Lessons from riding 1,300 miles in 22 days Tweet Version : — “Zoom Out and your path looks straighter. Resistance strengthens. People love a story, ask for help. Frustration is useless. Love. Be mindful in the dull. Stay hungry.” Day 17 Bliss An Uber driver dropped wisdom on me the week prior to embarking on a journey from Eugene, OR to Tijuana via bicycle. I explained to him the “plan” or lack…
The Plan (ish) The Plan(ish) What We’re Doing One of my best friends and I just decided that we are going to go on a bike ride from Oregon about two weeks ago. We are about 4 days out from departing on the journey. We have zero bike-packing or road biking experience and have not ridden a bike for more than 20 miles. Why We’re Doing It I’m hitting the trail because I said, “hell yeah!” when we…
