Why should I give thanks?
What is there to be grateful for?
I know how this can feel…
But if this is how you are looking at everything…
Then you are missing the true treasure that exists around us.

Because you absolutely fail to do what Marketing is supposed to create.
So, when people input into an AI to use this approach…
AI will do it as asked…
And it will create a bunch of junk and send it out faster than you can imagine…
To create an even faster path to failure.
November 27, 2025 at 9:00 PM
Now, this is where AI comes in to make things worse…
AI is only as good as the person behind it…
And in the vast majority of marketing…
The people “doing” it are honestly useless in terms of what makes Marketing powerful…
Uniqueness.
Category Defining.
Different.

Here’s the issue, though…
99.9% of the marketing that I receive every single day…
Either goes to junk (if by email) or is ignored (if by messages).
Why?
It is all the same…
Sometimes “exactly” the same.

When you only focus on the “end” of a Stress Chain…
Usually, the problems do not go away…
And often, more problems develop.
This is why when someone develops “one” Chronic Disease…
It is highly likely they will develop “more” Chronic Diseases.

When I help most people with resolving their stressors…
It becomes easy to see how people struggle so much.
Most people go wrong in the same way.
What is that way?
The problem is that they believe that the loudest stressors are the most important stressors to solve first.
November 26, 2025 at 6:00 PM
We all have stressors in our lives…
And over the years, I have helped many people overcome the many stressors in their lives.
But if you look at the overall trends happening in today’s world…
We are finding that people’s stressors have gotten out of control.

Both Weeds and Trees thrive in different contexts…
Though their methods are extremely different…
They both find ways to thrive.
We are no different in this context.

Most people will try to give a definitive answer to this…
Saying something like…
“Speed is the name of the game”…
Or…
“Deep roots allow you to weather any storm”…
But which path is the right path?

What we often call “weeds” are plants that spread quickly…
But have little depth to them.
Then there is a different spectrum where there is incredible depth, but slow timing…
Such as what we see with trees.
What method is right?

So many people try to push through…
Do more… Go faster…
No need to ever rest.
The result?
Burnout… Chronic Disease… Worse.
Will not be me.

It has been a busy weekend.
Have there been sacrifices?
Yes.
Have there been rewards?
Absolutely.

But today’s message will be brief.
Why?

I kept going harder and harder…
And I crossed that finish line…
Official Finish: 2 Hours, 51 Minutes, 22 Seconds.
Previous Record: 3 Hours, 15 Minutes, 19 Seconds.
But it was even better than that still…
I not only finished…
I finished Number 3 in my Age Division… A Podium Finish.
November 23, 2025 at 9:00 PM
I ended up in the dirt with a DNF…
Did Not Finish.
Something that I have “never” had happen before.
Ever…
In my entire life.

I was competing in Martial Arts before I could remember.
I was competing in Cross Country at the State Level in High School.
I was competing in Lacrosse NCAA D3 Level at University.
And in 2019, I began to compete in Spartan Obstacle Course Races.
I have loved doing these races over the years.

We are meaningful…
We are valuable…
We deserve health…
We deserve safety…
We deserve Truth…
And we will no longer be denied these in our lives.

“You will learn the Truth, and the Truth will make you free.”
Suffering can be overcome by learning the Truth.
There are many individuals who live in and by lies and deceit.
“You will be able to tell them by their fruits.”

I find more solutions to so much suffering…
And continually I find there are small pockets of corruption…
That are at the center of so much sickness.
Like cancer, except that instead of malignant cells we find malignant people and groups…
With influence that spreads like a virus and causes pain.

What are the things that you are carrying?
Are they truly serving you?
Or should you consider…
Is there a better Way to live out our lives?

Eventually, the first child perished from their infections…
Suffering and in pain.
The second child went on, saddened, but working toward a better life…
And using what they learned to try to help as many others as they could.

Just as these two children carried rusty spoons…
Often, there are things that we carry in our own lives.
Identities.
Beliefs.
Traditions.
Expectations.
More.

As long as one of the two forms of internal bondage has you…
You will struggle to attain your dreams.
If you make it while still bound by “one”…
It will likely pull you back before you truly enjoy the dream.
It only takes one to ruin everything…
And that is a large part of why most people struggle.
November 20, 2025 at 9:00 PM
But for a growing majority…
It is not the external factors that prevent people from attaining their dreams…
But rather it is two types of internal bondage that keep people in chains…
Preventing most from attaining their dreams…
And pulling more back into the abyss after having a taste of success.
November 20, 2025 at 6:00 PM
98% of people die and never attain their dreams.
But what is discussed less often…
Is that within that 2%…
There are many more people who attain their dreams…
Then lose them all…
Before dying.
