Unless you are average. During your schooling you … [Read more...]
Is your stuffy job worth it? Working 50 hours a week with people you hate just so you can make someone else rich? Are your two cars and the two car payments and the two insurance premiums worth it? Is your 30 year mortgage worth it? Are your yearly property taxes worth it? Is your 50 inch flat screen tv with 500 channels of indoctrination worth … [Read more...]

Train like an animal because if you don't you are just wasting your time. You are the Lion of the gym. Act like it. The Sheep and Cows can sit on a machine and watch TV but you're there for a purpose. You're there to strengthen your body and mind. The only way to do that is to push yourself past any limits you think might exist. The other weaklings in the … [Read more...]
