Most of us men are addicted to performance. It's the only way we've ever felt loved. Until someone shows you how to feel love without performing, you’ll keep grinding for more, and call it "success." Is it really "success" if you don't feel whole? Centered? At peace? Proud of the man you are when no one is watching? Brandon helped me see that the real work is unlearning the lie that you need to earn your worth. Make the shift. Stoked to see you all this week at Bitcoin Vegas

Men in the fiat world hustle to feel valuable. Men in the Bitcoin world burn through their bullshit until they remember they already are.

My older P.E. brothers are hyped about some capital allocator pulling 19% returns - Brookfield Capital or something Complex models. Downside hedging. Deep macro insights. Cool story bro. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Bitcoiners have quietly been compounding at 60%+ for a decade. 25x. 50x. 200x. Not by being clever, but by being clear. They saw what others didn’t: The fiat system is broken. The money printer isn’t a glitch, it’s the business model. And these aren’t a few mythical OGs from 2011. There are thousands. Probably tens of thousands. But sure, let’s keep glorifying 19% a year. Let’s keep pretending complexity = brilliance. Their big diss on bitcoin is volatility. Well, the market’s trying to price a perfectly scarce, 24/7 global asset… In a money that’s infinite, manipulated, and dying. No wonder it looks volatile. Maybe the real alpha isn’t in spreadsheets. Maybe it’s in guts. In clarity. In being right before it’s obvious.

With Bitcoin back at $107K, it’s a good time to remember: Bitcoin won’t save you. Not at $300K. Not at $500K. Not even at $1 million a coin. But it will expose you. Your fears. Your addictions. The parts of you still waiting to be seen. It doesn’t fix your inner world. It reveals it. #ProofOfHeart

Most men don’t need more success. They need more honesty, with themselves.

The grind won’t heal you. You can’t outrun your inner world. Eventually, it catches up.

Learning this from my mentor, Brandon Hawk, was a game changer for me.

Sovereignty / Phase One: Build success. Sovereignty / Phase Two: Learn how to feel it.

Take the armor off in small moments. That’s how you build a life that’s actually yours.
