I cover another “hasty advance”. This time in Kabul at a bazar grand opening where I walked in solo and had issues with some local PSD (private security detail).

While on a site security advance in South America, I describe how I snatched an Argentine debutante from her security detail undetected.

We all like to present our best side to the world. The true version of ourselves is the one that reveals itself when it is confronted with life or death.

I discuss the key elements that attracted me to Japan and how it has been one of the best places in the world to unplug and zen out.

Do you use past traumas as a crutch to get sympathy or make excuses for your failures in life, or do you use those negative experiences as a spear to combat anything or anyone who dares to stand in your way. It’s never too late to turn your life around. Stop using the crutch and living the life of the victim. Arm yourself with that spear and adopt a warrior mindset where each battle makes you stronger, not weaker.

In this first episode I give a summarized version of what led me in the direction I chose in life. This isn’t a spoon feeding of what I believe is right or wrong, just a different perspective on life where you can learn from what’s useful and toss out what’s not.
