When in doubt, illuminate your face with sunlight over blue light.

Been taking a little break from posting content recently but want to send out all of my positive energy to you.

Continue to pour into your health & goals on a daily basis and keep returning to smooth, slow, and deep breaths when you need some calmness & peace.

PV 🌴

Be okay with walking away from people who show you disrespect. People who mistake your kindness for weakness.

You don’t owe anybody anything.

Protect your peace.

True love is completely detached and not attached in any sort of way.

Detached love is completely unconditional. What you should be asking the other person is: Are you following your deepest truth? If yes, then I will be satisfied because I want you to live your best life, whether I'm involved or not. Detached love is infinite and pure.

Attached "love" to me is based in fear. I'll love you only if you follow my rules. I'll love you depending on these conditions that I'm setting for you. It's coming from an insecurity within and a need to control.

Consider asking yourself: Why do I need to control something or someone I love? If I really love them, wouldn't I want them to be as happy as possible?

Success to me is very simple.

It has nothing to do with what you’ve achieved on the outside, but simply looking in the mirror and being proud of who you see and the life you get to live on a daily basis.

After a period of expansion in your life, you will likely experience a period of contraction.

Simply enjoy where you’re at with a smile on your face and flow with the seasons of life as they come.

How people treat you when they can no longer gain anything from you is the truest reflection of how they feel about you.

Listen to your intuition.

Hanging with my new friend Mama Mia

A powerful person seeks to empower others to their fullest potential.

Someone who seeks to disempower others is not powerful.

Don’t underestimate the power of verbal gratitude and appreciation for your loved ones.

A genuine thank you, I love you, and I see the work you’re putting in can go a long way in making their day better.

I used to love studying, playing, and thinking about poker. It was the perfect combination of math & psychology for me in my 20’s. After years of keeping a beginner mindset and learning everyday, eventually people started to say I was the best player in the casino. Whereas the people who got into the game for the money or fame (the end result) were consistently breaking even, losing, and more importantly unhappy and stressed.

After taking a step back, I’ve realized it’s a common theme I see across all industries: The result you want is more likely to come when you release the attachment to it and instead just genuinely enjoy each step it takes to get there with a smile on your face.

And once you make it to your result, you may realize the fun part isn’t the destination at all. It was simply the journey you took to get there. Because you were just having fun doing what you loved.

I believe if you spend your time doing what you truly love, you’re rich in more ways than money will ever buy.

In my opinion, this is how you will you know you’ve “made it.” You realize there isn’t a destination to get to. You are fully present doing what you love. You have an internal state of peace.

To me, this is true success.

As a poker player, I would express myself primarily through my betting, and almost never through my voice.

After quitting three years ago, I would get nervous when speaking in front of a group of 4+ and had trouble clearly articulating myself with confidence. I knew it was something I wanted to improve.

Three years later, somebody today told me I’m a natural after taking my upbeat vinyasa class. I smiled and said thanks knowing deep down it’s not true.

It’s obvious to me that you can make your weaknesses your strengths if you are willing to work little by little everyday.

Small progress compounds massively.

Extended breaks from technology to unwind, relax, and reevaluate is so healthy for you.

Disconnect to reconnect.

The best days in your life are still ahead of you.

Stay patient, grateful, and optimistic.

And remember to smile & enjoy each moment. PV.

Really enjoying guiding others through a somatic yin practice.

So powerful to take intentional time to slow down, breathe, & disconnect.

Always learning, growing, & improving 🫶

This is a really cool project to support and get a beautiful piece of art to go with it that you can smile at every time you walk.

This region of the world is really special. The people are so kind, the upcoming generation of musicians are extremely talented, the culture is rich, and seeing them thrive and prosper through

is amazing. I’m loving the work

and the team are doing.

Check out the music of the El Diviso Community at this YouTube channel:

It is much easier to cultivate true joy in your life when you know deep down you are living to your fullest potential.

Don’t hold back. Make the most of every day you have.

1. Sit in silence for 20 minutes per day with your eyes closed. Begin your session with 10 deep inhales through your nose, exhaling out of your mouth on the aggressive side, then doing the remainder of practice with a normal & relaxed breath through and out your nose.

2. Spend 3-6 hours in nature by yourself at least once a week with no technology.

3. Go to a health and wellness retreat in a different city than you currently live.

4. Try a yin yoga class 2x per week where the teacher goes very slow and offers props like bolsters and blocks.

5. Get in the best physical shape of your life.

6. If you do all this for ~3 months and still don’t know what to do, the last resort is to ask exactly one person who has accomplished everything you want in life. Choose this person carefully. Don’t ask a second person.

If you’ve been stuck between two options for weeks and genuinely do not know which to pick, choose the option that will liberate you more.

When something outside of yourself triggers you, it means you are triggerable.

See this as an opportunity to dive deep into it.

Why are you allowing something external to shift your internal state towards anger, frustration, etc?

You always have the power to control your reaction to everything. Do your best to remain calm & centered no matter what is happening “out there.”

It is from this centered place you are able to make clean & clear decisions that improve the life of yourself and those you interact with.

If you’re an intelligent & logical bitcoiner, you need to be dumb-maxxing more. Spending too much time overthinking and overanalyzing things online isn’t healthy for you.

Play recreational sports, try a dance class, do some breathwork, go to a health retreat, do yoga or qi-gong in a park, smile & nod what’s up to everyone you see.

Life is genuinely better when you feel more, think less, and begin to tap into a flow state.

Connecting to your breath during times of stress & anxiety will always be one of the most important things you can do.

Place your left hand on your heart and your right hand on your belly. Close your eyes & breathe slow, deep, intentional breaths for a few minutes. Allow your exhales to get slightly longer with each breath.

Use your breath as the doorway back to your center. Express gratitude for what you have. Make decisions from this calm & centered place. Much love.

Clarity doesn’t come from overthinking. It comes from creation.

Take action. You’ll discover what you like and what you don’t like.

Build momentum in what you like. This momentum will turn into confidence, and the newfound confidence you gain will change your life.

If anyone ever asks you to help them heal, you must first ask them if they are willing to give up the things that are making them sick.

Living in a perpetual state of fear and worry is a terrible way to live.

Put yourself outside of your comfort zone, try new things, continuously push the boundary of what’s possible for you and your life.

Fortune favors the brave.

The fastest way to ignite the spark within others is to ignite the spark within yourself.

People won’t listen to your words, they’ll watch what you do. Become the living embodiment of the values you wish to spread in the world.

One example: If you want people to be kind, don’t tell them. Just be a kind person.

All change first begins with the daily actions you take in your life.

Incorporate some sort of movement every hour in your day, even if it’s small.

Movement is medicine.

I want you to think of one habit you currently do in your life that you want to curb completely deep down. Identify it clearly. Write it down.

Think of what you want to replace it with. Write it down.

Catch yourself in your day when the habit you currently do pops up. With ease, replace it to the new thing. Get at least 1% better each day.

Check your progress in 40 days.

You don’t attract what you want.

You attract who you are, or what you deserve.

Upgrading yourself is the first step to upgrading your whole life.

Traveling is one of the best ways to expand your sense of what’s possible.

In conflict, how quickly can you return to a loving state?

Take the time to understand what’s going on from this place.

The energy you live in can shift the conflict in a positive way quickly.

Choose to not complain about anything out loud and instead channel everything you feel into your health, purpose, and relationships.

I’ve noticed a small trend of xrp guys popping up every month or two around here (like one every couple months). Not preachers. but just guys who have a quiet interest. Guys who think xrp is currently being used in international trade as it offers fast transactions, bitcoin is just digital gold hence why it’s so expensive, etc. Just the classic talking points of someone like this. They are guys who seem normal on the surface, but you may notice they are typically less grounded and every so slightly more stressed.

If it somehow gets brought up, which is very rare, I’ll stay quiet or maybe ask a question or two like how long they’ve been holding xrp to see where they’re at. Simple stuff. Yesterday it got brought up with another guy who just moved here and I made the mistake of going a little deeper with the guy who had a bit of an ego and I soon discovered what a mistake that was. If this is any of your guys line of work, to discuss these matters with people, I commend you because I found it to be exhausting within minutes.

For me, I’ve always found shilling bitcoin to be very unfulfilling and largely a negative freeroll, since if they buy and it goes down, they will be upset, versus if they buy and it goes up, it’s like it was to be expected. Also throughout my life, I’ve noticed that the money you acquire will just amplify the internal state in which you live. When I was a poker player, I felt feelings of emptiness, numbness, and depression. I didn’t know exactly why at the time but it was because of the extractive nature of the work, the constant suppressing of my emotions, and the environment I was in being in a casino where everyone is against each other. So anytime I had a good month, the money I made equated to me receiving more energy, which temporarily was a positive boost, but ultimately just amplified the feelings of depression and emptiness within me.

This is largely why on nostr I discuss discovering a contributive purpose, spending your time getting healthy, developing a connection to your breath, and cultivating peace and gratitude within yourself because these are the things that absolutely changed my life the most as it took me from a depressed poker player to being more joyous and loving as a human.

Last nights conversation with the xrp guy was another reminder of this. I’ve reached a point where I don’t feel called to convince anyone of anything. If someone comes to me for advice then great, I know I can help them out in their journey, but wasting time discussing topics with people who fundamentally aren’t using logic will drain you. My intention is to preserve my energy, pour everything into my purpose and retreats, and help the people who are actively searching for it. Ultimately, I believe everyone is going at the perfect speed for their own journey in life as thinking otherwise will only lead to mental suffering within yourself. I hope you had a great 4th of July and may you keep living your best life. Pura Vida.

No flower blossoms all year so if you’re having a difficult season in your life, be easy on yourself.

Keep doing your best & trust that everything is happening at the right speed for you to make progress.

Damn I’m feeling so grateful for another day here on this planet.

Today marks the start of the 2nd half of 2026 so may you make the absolute most of it. PV.

The more you energetically need something or someone, the more you repel it.

Let go, stay in your power, and trust that what’s meant for you will not miss you.

People who overthink and overanalyze everything are stuck living in their heads, which leads to stress and frustration.

An easy way to mitigate this is by taking daily consistent action towards a goal.

If you get 1% better each day, that’s 37 times better at the end of one year.

Stop thinking and start doing.

Stop sitting on the fence & state your opinion more.

Take a stand for something that you believe in.

Playing small is a slow death.

If you allow things outside of your control to dictate your mood, you are literally just disempowering yourself and will likely never make it.

Take back control over your own life by pouring into your health, purpose, and relationships.

Empower yourself and those around you.

I couldn’t disagree more. If you’re attaching the quality of your life to the price of something, you’re doing it wrong.

Pour into your health and purpose daily. Build something cool. Make the world a better place.

Everyday life is getting better and better.

The issues I see in the world is that people are living with nervous systems that are hijacked by modern technology (overstressed), people don’t have a community they feel deeply connected to (feel alone), and people suppress their emotions which leads them to living more seriously instead of tapping into their lighter side which produces more laughter and fun (too stiff).

My retreat is designed to address all three of these issues. In one week you will completely feel rejuvenated, restored, make new friends, and tap into the lighter side of yourself that will help you feel better and become more magnetic to others.

Never forget how badly you once wanted the things you have now.

Perspective is so important.

Thankful for all of the fathers out there who are making this world a better place!

The world could use all the healthy, strong, discliplined, purposeful, and loving men we can get. PV.

You’ll never want anything you already have.

Using the power of your mind, how would you feel and behave if you already had that thing you currently want?

Embody that new state of being today. And notice how the desire for the thing fades away.

Waking up everyday with a clear purpose is one of the best feelings of all time.

On the other hand, being unclear leads to distracting yourself with pleasure and other things that work against your best interest.

Connect to your purpose.

Stacking sats is nice but it’s a passive vehicle to build wealth. It’s more important to have an active vehicle.

Invest in your personal development journey: Retreats, experiences, travel, a gym, courses, 1:1 mentorships.

The quality of your life will ultimately come down not to how many sats you stack, but to the quality of your health, relationships, and the impact you have on others.

Care less what others think.

Care more about following your own intuition relentlessly.

It's much easier to be rewarded when you are courageous, bold, and decisive versus shy, timid, and afraid.

I love those YouTube videos where the 80 year olds talk about their life and they all say they wish they took more risk and stopped being afraid.

Give yourself that experience you’ve always wanted to take. Look back later and smile. Growth happens when you go just beyond your edge.

The

is one of the most special places in the world I’ve ever been to. From being a poker pro living in California feeling stuck in a mental prison lacking true purpose and real community, but always having a passion for bitcoin and knew there was something more meaningful in the world out there somewhere, coming here for the first time three years ago changed my life forever.

Now three years later, my life is much different than spending time in a casino everyday, and I’m so excited to offer my first group retreat in January 2027. I’m going to pour everything I have into this week being an incredible experience for everyone who comes. The intention is for you to connect deeper to community, nature, health, and purpose. We will also experience bitcoin in person here at the local markets and have discussions around nostr & freedom tech. Walk away feeling completely rejuvenated, restored, with new friends, and ready to make 2027 your best year yet.

If you want to be apart of this experience, check out the website and book a call with me to apply. Spots are very limited. Pura Vida.

I have a challenge for you: Stop complaining & stop gossiping.

Don’t let anything negative come out of your mouth regarding anything external.

See what happens.

Heard this guy on a podcast say you have two options these days:

1. Study AI really hard and figure it all out
2. Go buy a ranch somewhere, raise a family, and be integrated with the local community

I’m definitely a #2 kind of guy.

I hung out with somebody for the first time 1-on-1 recently. We agreed twice to meet at 3pm. There are some events where showing up late makes sense, but this wasn’t one of them.

He rolls up at 3:35pm. I ask what happened to our agreement. He said people have been flaking and showing up late on him recently so he felt called to do it too.

It sort of blew my mind that a man would supposedly change his values based on the way other people are acting. I got bad vibes immediately.

My opinion: Instead of looking at how other people act, be the example of the change you wish to see. Don’t perpetuate the same behavior cycle you don’t like. Be impeccable with your word. You never get a second chance to make a first impression.

The key is to stay deeply connected to your life’s purpose while simultaneously becoming immune to the opinions of others who haven’t achieved what you want.

It’s pretty wild that I’m sitting here in Costa Rica looking at an iguana while typing this message and people in at least 5 continents around the world will read this.

And it’s impossible for the message to be taken down.

Sometimes it’s nice to zoom out and marvel at the amazing technological advancements we’ve made as a species. Pura Vida.

Don’t put extra pressure on yourself to perform well.

Instead relax, breathe, disconnect, and take it easy. Allow your mind to settle.

Watch your performance increase.

“May we trust in the process of life to let go and let grow.”

Bear markets are for building.

Build your body, mind, discipline, and concentration. Investing in yourself will always pay off.

Become the person you know you are capable of becoming.

If you truly want to be free, the only person you should ever try to impress is yourself.

Make yourself proud.

Been thinking about this for the last day. Network effects are real and most people don’t care about the fundamentals of nostr as all of the legacy social media currently works fine.

At least there is a strong userbase who does care, and the apps are getting better by the day. Who knows what will happen in the future, but at least nostr will always be here.

I will continue to post and show support. Pura Vida.

Success doesn’t happen in a straight line.

Embrace the volatility. Learn from your failures. Keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Become resilient to anything and you’ll become unstoppable.

Community is an underrated part of being successful today.

It’s tough to have a bad life when you have thriving relationships and are surrounded by incredible people.

If you’re feeling unfulfilled, empty, or hollow, you can always change the trajectory of your life. Much love.

Undoubtedly the thing that has changed my life the most is going to retreats centered around nature, music, getting healthy, reducing stress, laughing, and being around great people with amazing vibes.

In a world that is increasingly getting digital and based around AI slop, having a network of like-minded people that you’re close with who you can build real communities and projects with is what will be valuable.

Real & authentic is the way.

Feeling grateful for everything.

One of the biggest realizations in my life is nothing outside of you can bring you peace & lasting joy. It literally has to come from within yourself.

If you seek external things like trophies, money, or romantic relationships to bring you joy, you are placing an impossible demand on them that will never satisfy you.

Choose relationships & activities from a place of already being joyous in your life, not for you to all of the sudden become joyous because of it.

Happy Sunday to everyone striving to be the best version of themselves.

Small progress compounds. You can be a completely different person in 6 months.
