Last week, I had the chance to sit down with University of Missouri head football coach Eliah Drinkwitz on a visit to their incredible facilities in Columbia, Missouri.

Coach Drinkwitz has led the program since 2020, making him one of the longest tenured coaches in the top conference in college football. He inherited a team that went 6-6 the year before his arrival and has turned the program into a perennial competitor, winning 10 and 11 games the last two years, respectively.

During our conversation, Coach Drinkwitz mentioned a personal turning point in his journey had been when he watched a single scene from the television series Yellowstone...

There was once a village surrounded by a tall wooden fence that had been there as long as anyone could remember. One day, a traveler convinced the villagers to tear it down—only for wolves to enter that night and ravage their livestock.

As it turned out, the fence was there for a reason...

There is a concept in cognitive science called the Illusory Truth Effect:

It's the tendency to believe false information after consistent, repeated exposures. In other words, if you're told something over and over again, it takes root in your mind as a truth.

This is how suggestions slowly, silently start to feel like rules...

You're going to see your parents 15 more times before they die.

In 2021, that simple statement, which later became the opening line of my book, changed my life.

My wife and I were living in California at the time, 3,000 miles away from our parents. I had been there for 12 years––a college baseball scholarship had brought me out West, and then a lucrative job opportunity had kept me there.

In a lot of ways, that felt fine...

Imagine yourself as a lion. Every single day, you have a choice.

You can:

There’s an old Danish fairy tale about an emperor who loved fine clothes.

Two swindlers promised him a suit so magnificent that it would be invisible to anyone unfit for their position or hopelessly foolish. They dress him in the invisible garments, and the emperor steps out into the city streets for a grand parade—completely naked. 

The townspeople, afraid to appear unfit or foolish, cheer for the outfit that isn't there. Only a small child told the truth: “But he’s completely naked!”

It’s a children’s story, but it beautifully captures one of the most dangerous dynamics in human nature: The Abilene Paradox...

I spent most of my life trying to control the uncontrollable. Running from the uncertainty that life inevitably brings.

But in running from the uncontrollable, the only thing we truly escape is our own peace.

This is the quiet truth of Amor Fati:

Embrace what lies beyond your control—and act on that which is within it...

In Homer’s epic poem The Odyssey, Odysseus and his men faced a long, arduous journey home to Ithaca after the Trojan War.

Early in the voyage, a series of fierce storms blow them off course and land them on a mysterious, sunlit island. It seemed peaceful, with gentle winds, calm seas, and fertile land. The inhabitants were friendly and welcoming. They offered Odysseus and his men food, specifically the fruit of the lotus plant.

But this was no ordinary fruit. The moment the men tasted it, something strange happened...
