The stock market is down over 10% over the last few weeks, and many high growth stocks are down 30, 40, or even 50% over that time. When we go through difficult periods in the market, I like to take some time to revisit the stocks that I own, and question my conviction levels in each one. I typically don’t sell much during these times, but I will often shift money from companies that I don’t believe in as much into ones that I do. Especially if those companies that I love are the ones that have experienced the largest

As I sit here writing this, it’s like the release valve has been opened for my internal spirit. I can feel the pressure being discharged. I can feel the swirling anxiety, fear, and doubt shift into optimism, hope, and excitement. I spent the last few days feeling stuck, lost, and disconnected. I ate like crap, didn’t work out consistently, spent too much time scrolling on my phone, and didn’t sleep well. But here I am feeling totally renewed after 15 minutes of writing. It’s always amazing to me how quickly a little bit of writing, working out, or action

Even with all the medical advances we have made in the last century, living to 100 is extremely rare. Studies show that centenarians make up a tiny fraction of the global population—about 0.02% in developed nations. The number of people that are truly thriving at that age is even smaller. My vision of longevity is a person who is self-sufficient, vibrant, and “kicking ass” well past 100. Someone who can live independently, walk miles daily, cook, clean, and tackle household tasks with ease. Maybe even hit the slopes, mountain bike, surf, play pickleball, or go out for a jog. While

One of the most underrated parts of investing is the level of CONVICTION you have in a given investment. I bought Palantir at $10 last year, but didn’t have enough conviction in the company to place a big enough bet on it to matter in the end. I even sold on the way up, still doubting my already small position. Palantir is up more than 7X since then, so even though I was partially right, I largely missed out. Luckily, I had more conviction in companies like Tesla, Sofi, Hims, Hood, and Nvidia, which made up for missing out in

And the future is here now… I’ve spent the last 12 years owning and running a functional fitness gym and coaching thousands of people to look and perform their best. When I was early in my career, I thought that anything that worked for me would work well for others. If I could just refine and communicate the plan that worked for me, then anybody else in the world could use that plan to get the same amazing results. (CrossFit + Paleo anybody?) As I got further into my career, I realized that there were a lot of variations in

When I’m sleeping well, life often flows relatively easily and effortlessly. I make better food choices, I’m more productive at work, and I’m more present with my family. The low-level, persistent angst goes away. The feeling of not being enough is gone. The desire to attain something outside of myself dissipates. Desires for unhealthy food, processed snacks, social media, social validation, and needing to be busy are forgotten or can be easily shooed away like a fly on the arm. Willpower is simultaneously stronger and almost unnecessary. Clarity reigns. We live in a culture where lack of sleep is often
