State of Grind

Former emperor of France and military leader Napoleon Bonaparte is known in history for conquering most of France until his eventual capture.

In this episode I talk about how that reputation helped him out of a tricky situation and how he cemented himself in our history books. It's not a throwaway, you'll also see how this can be used in your life. Check it out. 

We talk about American politics in this episode...yeah sounds boring right? That's how I've always thought when it comes to politics. However, once you understand how the system works you begin to see the nuances and why government bodies make the decisions they do. 

Over the years I had trouble making certain decisions. Now whether or not those decisions were big or small for the ones I have been indecisive about I created a simple method for deciding an outcome. (somebody else definitely invented this before myself but hey I can take credit for it on the internet just because.) :)

There will always be a knowledge barrier to anything worth discovering. We didn't know what germs were until someone decided to place 2 and 2 together to find out that unwashed hands had a higher chance of killing people. We didn't know smoking killed until we decided to take a look at lung cancer rates specifically with this who smoke. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this quirky little episode. :)

Hello hello hello, i know i've been gone for a longggg while but I'm finally back! I temporarily left to put all my time and effort into my career and right when the ball was rolling the COVID 19 pandemic hit and everyone suddenly ended up with a ton of spare time and for many, lost their jobs. 

Right now we're all in the same boat. We have TOO MUCH TIME!

Never thought you'd have that problem right? well here we have it and a lot of people are losing their damn minds.

Check out this episode as i talk about a few solutions to the problem of having a little bit too much time on our hands and how you can come out of this with a stronger mentality and some skills. Cheers!

Ever wonder what to look for when buying a car?  I got the highlights for you. If you would rather read em, here they are below but I go in depth in the episode to really give you the low down on the most important things to look for when financing a vehicle in terms of affordability and financial stability.

Back when the internet was in its early stages, the internet was a luxury. It wasn't something people spent hours on daily.

The Net was primarily a tool that you really only used to do something important with, like typing up a paper or doing business.

We all wash our hands after toilet time...at least I hope that we do. But what do we do after we use our devices after a whole day? I just released a new episode on my podcast that explores this in a fun way with storytelling and if you're into podcasts or just listening to dope content I highly recommend checking it out, you can not go wrong with it.

“Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.”

Control what you can in frontof you, let go of what’s behind and done.

At one point in my life I was going through life and took things as they came. Some were good, some were bad, but something was missing and I knew deep down there needed to be a change.

It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change. - Charles Darwin

Here's a small abstract of the episode which will seem weird at first, however it all meshes together. 

"We collectively as a species eliminated a major threat to our survival through sheer will and work ethic.

As time goes on more and more diseases have that word inserted in them eliminating that threat from our lives."

I want to touch on one word in particular that is used almost every day, multiple times a day. It’s actually something we particularly use when talking to others.

The word is BUT.

I’ll use it in a sentence.

I really want to go to the park but it’s a far walk.

It seems simple right?

That word is one of the most dangerous words in the English language.

The meaning of but in the dictionary is this;

used to introduce a phrase or clause contrasting with what has already been mentioned.

The word is described as a means to contrast what has been said before it.
