Unbothered

I’ve never been super crazy about New Year’s resolutions, because I feel like it puts too much pressure and strictness to adhere to a certain timeline. Instead, I have always been in favor of choosing a simple word or phrase and specifying certain goals for the year, some exceptionally doable and others a bit more […]

The world owes you nothing, it is up to every single individual to go out there and chase it. It’s a hard pill to swallow to come to the realization that we are where we are in life because of the choices we make and the actions that we take. Sure, some people may do […]

You can lead a horse to water, but you can not make it drink. There has been an awful amount of time lately where I have been feeling like the world’s crappiest cowboy, shepherding a multitude of horses to the trough, only for them to whinny and thrash about because they are thirsty, yet refusing […]

New Year’s is a time of self reflection, goal-setting, lofty aspirations, deep thought, and contemplation. For me, it’s also a celebration of the best 3 years of my life; my anniversary. Sometimes, it feels like just yesterday when we met by getting (reluctantly on my part) paired up at a Royce Gracie seminar. Other times, […]

Big Dick Energy. It’s a whole mood right now. Charging through life splaying my testicular prowess across unsuspecting observers. Y’all trying to hate on my persona for working hard and getting after it? You can catch this mushroom stamp straight across your forehead. I’m done apologizing for being strong.

Welp, it’s officially 2019 team and we made it through another year. If you’re reading this expecting me to come out swinging with some “new year, new me” bs, let me stop you right now. Unfortunately for all of you, I plan on coming into 2019 the same old tenacious little midget with high aspirations […]

If you’ve trained Jiu Jiitsu for a significant amount of time and can say with the utmost confidence that you have never felt undeserving of your rank, I’m calling shenanigans right now. Some days you go on the mats kicking butt as the hammer, and other days you get pounded as the nail (I’m also […]
