  • Detach (Need Nothing, Need No One)

    I’ve always done things alone.

    Study alone, work alone, hit the gym alone, travel alone.

    So being on this path of solitude is nothing new to me.

    It actually is my true nature, when I thrive and when I rejuvenate my energy.

    In fact, being alone is one of my superpowers.

    It allows me to enter my own world, live my fantasies, learn, read, explore and whatever I want.

    For me, freedom is one of my highest values.

    And when I learned about detachment from Buddhism it really resonated with me since at my core I am a free spirit, solo adventurer and love being in solitude.

    I need nothing and need no one.

    This feeling may seem horrible for some, but if you are anything like me, this feeling is liberating.

    When in solitude, you are free to explore your wildest imaginations, read anything you like, do anything you like and truly be free to anything your heart desires.

    Don’t get me wrong, I love being with good company, I love spending time with family and friends as well.

    However, I deeply love my time with myself.

    May you learn to detach and thrive in solitude.

    You are enough.

    You are all you need.

    Need nothing and need no one.

  • What If Writing Is My Ticket To Financial Freedom, Fulfillment and Immortality

    I’ve always been fascinated with the written word ever since I can remember.

    Something about putting words together to move someone just always captivated me.

    I would write long essays as a kid.

    I would write just to write when I was bored, needed to get my thoughts and emotions out.

    If I wasn’t writing I was reading. And you know what they say, “to become a better writer, read a lot.”

    Now as an adult I earn $80,000+ per year.

    However, at 37 I have not hit the financial number I desire.

    Of course, my excuse has been, being an entrepreneur is harder to make money than it is to just have a job.

    But, I’ve been writing online for 11 years and still believe and have this feeling, writing on my blog, building up my subscribers, sending out my newsletter can be be my ticket to financial freedom, fulfillment and immortality.

    This little writing habit and passion I’ve had since I was a kid can actually end up being the most lucrative business I have ever done.

    I mean just look at successful writers such as J.K. Rowling, Tim Ferriss and guys who have sold their newsletters such as Sam Parr for $30 Million, Morning Brew for $70 Million, Shaan Puri for $25 Million and more.

    That said, I have several tickets that will help me achieve my financial goals, fulfillment and immortality and writing is definitely one of them, because writing is my foundation. Everything I do stems from my writing.

    What is your ticket to financial freedom, fulfillment and immortality?
