Today is the last Friday of 2024.

This year, I was focused on “building”. I’ve built my skills and experienced a lot of growth in my career, personal life, Jiu-Jitsu skills, and much more.

Over the last 12 months, I:

• Competed 7 times in 3 different countries
• Competed in ADCC — the biggest tournament of my life
• Moved in with my beautiful girlfriend
• Visited Croatia, Spain, Morocco, and France with my beautiful girlfriend
• Published 161 articles on Substack (the last 2 come out on Monday and Tuesday)
• Published more than 250 written posts on Instagram
• Gone thousands of dollars into credit card debt
• Paid it all off
• Injured my back multiple times
• Became a Twitter ghostwriter
• Quit Twitter ghostwriting
• Became a book ghostwriter
• Released my best instructional ever
• Finished writing and preparing to release my first book

And much more.
