Simple formulas for a good life (simple, but not easy).

Getting rich

• Spend less than you earn. Wealth is built by saving more than you spend and investing the difference.

• Invest early & consistently. Small, regular investments compound into massive wealth over time.

• Avoid bad debt. High-interest debt works against you—pay it off fast and focus on assets.

Being Healthy

• Burn more than you eat. Weight loss comes down to a simple calorie deficit.

• Exercise + good food = longevity. You need both for long-term health—one alone isn’t enough.

• Prioritize sleep. 7–8 hours a night improves mood, focus, and physical health.

Relationships

• Trust + honesty = strong bonds. Without them, relationships crumble.

• Listen more than you speak. Understanding comes from truly hearing others.

• Quality > quantity. A few deep relationships bring more happiness than many shallow ones.

Personal Growth

• Effort > talent. Hard work beats raw talent when talent doesn’t work hard.

• 1% better daily = massive growth. Small, consistent improvements lead to big results.

• Discomfort = growth. Growth happens outside your comfort zone—lean into challenges.

• Self-discipline = freedom. Control your habits, and you’ll control your life.

Productivity

• Focus on the vital few. The 80/20 rule: most results come from a few key efforts.

• Do one thing at a time. Multitasking reduces quality—focus wins.

• Plan your work, work your plan. A clear plan saves time and effort.

• Tackle the hardest task first. “Go ugly early” to gain momentum.

These are all simple, but not easy. Deploying these formulas in your own life will require effort and perseverance.

I’ve always been able to use my new iPhone almost immediately while it syncs in the background.

I used to lowkey be kind of an alcoholic.

I didn’t drink everyday, but when I did drink (usually once a week) I would binge drink (12-20 drinks).

The thing that got me to stop was realizing that drinking was effecting my brain and emotional health during the periods where I wasn’t drinking.

I went completely sober for about a year and went through a period of depression and anxiety for several months as my brain reset.

I kept getting these waves of repressed emotion. Things I had been burying for 20 years and I’d find myself like randomly crying in the milk aisle at the grocery store lmao 😂

It was only then that I realized why I had been drinking so hard in the first place.

It was me coping with difficult and painful emotions and experiences from childhood.

When I realized that I thought to myself “how fucking weak and pathetic” it was.

I told myself be tough and look your problems in the face.

So I did.

And life got better.
