Half dead, feet bleeding. Last meters. March on. Family and friends cheering. I am a Commando now…
My life split in two:Before: Drifting without directionAfter: Purpose laser-burned into my DNA Before: Had friendsAfter: Found my Tribe An instant upgrade. One day off.Next day on. But here’s what they don’t tell you that day: It’s not a career. It’s your identity. It’s for life. Yes, you get the brotherhood.Yes, you get the pride.Yes,…

25 years ago, as a Commando candidate, I had it all wrong.I thought being elite meant running the fastest or lifting the heaviest.
Just like many think Success is just about the biggest bank account. Man….., was I wrong. Some of the real qualities that make exceptional operators?– Razor-sharp situational awareness– Flawless team integration– Fast adaptation Here’s what I learned later on in Special Operation Forces: Elite performers aren’t satisfied with mastering just one thing. They’re constantly asking:…

What’s the one thing every man regrets on their deathbed?It’s not what you think. 👇
Everyone dies. But not everyone truly lives. Even worse? Not everyone lives the way they dreamed they would. I discovered this in “The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying” by Bronnie Ware.This book hit me hard. Bronnie was an Australian nurse. She spent eight years with people in their final months. Just listening. Just being…

In Special Forces, we never operated alone. Ever. Why not? 👇
Because even elite operators need backup. Every mission had an entire support structure behind it: • Quick Reaction Force and Air Support standing by• Intelligence teams feeding us real-time information• Medical evacuation ready to launch Fast forward 20 years. As I coach high-performing entrepreneurs and executives, I see a concerning pattern: They’re trying to fight…

Becoming a Special Operations Officer ✅ Building 7- and 8-figure businesses ✅ What do they have in common? 👇
Both require Extreme Focus. 8 seconds. That’s your attention span right now. A goldfish can focus for 9. Time is your most valuable asset. It is finite. Most of us are bleeding time out, one notification at a time: • 147 minutes on social media daily• Up to 96 phone checks per day• 3.1 hours…

As a Special Forces officer, every mission followed the same format. Now, I apply these same principles to succeed in life… 👇
– Intell– Planning– Execution– After Action Review Yet I watch high performers do the exact opposite in life:• Racing from deal to deal, charging toward burnout• Sprinting through relationships• No plan. No pause. No situational awareness. In Special Forces, this approach gets people killed.In business and life, it slowly kills everything that truly matters to…

I’m 100% replaceable at work, but 100% irreplaceable at home.I came across a hard-hitting quote:
“20 years from now, the only people who will remember that you worked late are your kids.” Ouch. That stings because it’s true. My ego loves to whisper how crucial I am to my businesses. Reality tells a different story. Through 15 years of extended family travel, I’ve watched my companies not just survive, but…

3 Years ago I made a hugely expensive mistake.
I invested a fortune without collateral in a niche I knew nothing about. My friends warned me. I didn’t listen. Because I live by the philosophy: “I just want to do cool stuff with cool people.” When a trusted, good friend offered me to co-invest in several businesses in his field of expertise, I jumped…

“Psssst, you’re on watch” Those dreaded words.I wake up and think: “Can´t be…….no way.” 😃
My sleeping bag is nice and warm.Outside, the desert is freezing cold.Pitch-black. No moon tonight. No light pollution. Nothing but a gazillion stars and vague contours of our vehicles. I sleep with my clothes and boots on. Always Ready for Action. All my gear is cold.I put it on by touch and feel the cold…
