For years I avoided reading Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson. I wanted to wait for the series to finish before diving in. With book 5 coming this December, I picked up book 1 a few months ago. As of today I'm caught up. I simply couldn't stop reading once I started. YEARS of hype did nothing to prepare me for how good it is. Hands down the best fantasy series I've ever read, but even saying that doesn't do it justice. It's so much more than just another fantasy series. Can't wait for the conclusion to this story. In fact, I'm going to reread all the books closer to December. ๐Ÿ˜‚

#Bitcoin isn't going to magically pump to $1M overnight via an omega candle. It's going to be a painful, multi-year journey with no guaranteed chance at success. It's a reflection of humanity itself. Prepare yourself accordingly.

I'm sorry that so many of you never experienced America before the US government stole so much freedom from us after 9/11.

Some mornings I really don't feel like hitting the gym. I'm not at 100%, and no one would blame a guy for skipping today to rest. Yet every time I choose to workout on these days I feel incredible afterwards. Maybe it wasn't my best workout ever, but I gave it my all. I pushed through. These are the most important days. Today is one of them. โœŒ๏ธ๐ŸŒž

The best part about getting zapped is knowing @OpenSats is on the receiving end.

My biggest goal in life is simple: Spend quality time with my great grandchildren before I die. There's no guaranteed success. I'm not even a grandfather yet! But I will work towards that goal every day. I want to be a part of their lives when I'm reaching the end of my journey.๐Ÿงก

I don't think any speech has resonated with me more than "This is Water" from David Foster Wallace. I listen to it many times per year.

Don't ask what it takes to change if you don't want the truth. There's nothing glamorous about being consistent day after day, year after year. No tricks or magic to it. You want change? Push through & grow, but stop asking "How do you do it?" if you don't really want to know.

Still don't understand the point in deleting Twitter. Obviously an individual choice, but I still have Reddit & Bitcointalk, even if I rarely use either. Doubt I'd ever delete Twitter.
