This is one of my favorite videos I’ve ever made.
It started as a long voice memo on a walk. No plan, no script. Just something that felt real.
I came home and built the video around that core idea.
And I’m glad I did.
Let me say something that sounds wrong at first:
Most people don’t fail because they’re bad at what they’re doing.
They fail because they don’t fail enough.
Not catastrophic failure.
Not blow-your-life-up failure.
Small.
Contained.
Low-stakes failure.
The kind that builds skill without destroying you.
That’s the reason my success now looks “fast” — even though it took years.
I didn’t wait for the perfect idea.
I didn’t wait for the perfect timing.
I didn’t wait until I felt ready.
I tried things early.
I tried them cheaply.
I tried them imperfectly.
Most of them didn’t work.
But every single one built something that stayed.
Marketing.
Execution.
Decision-making under uncertainty.
Emotional resilience.
Pattern recognition.
You don’t see the failed apps.
The businesses that never launched.
The money lost.
The awkward content.
The years of no profit.
But you’re seeing the compound effect now.
Success isn’t about finding the right thing.
It’s about becoming the person who can make things work.
And that only happens through reps.
If you feel capable but stuck…
If you’re hesitating more than you’re acting…
If you know you could be doing more…
This video is for you.
Not motivation.
A system.
What’s the small experiment you’ve been avoiding?
Run it.

If you care about performance, in the gym, at work, in your relationships, your diet matters more than you think.
Not in a trendy way.
In a foundational way.
I don’t follow anything extreme. No weird elimination protocols (they have their place, but not in this conversation). No obsessive tracking. But I am very intentional about the ingredients I eat because I’ve learned this firsthand:
When your energy is unstable, everything feels harder.
Focus feels harder.
Training feels harder.
Patience feels harder.
And most of the time, it’s not discipline.
It’s fuel quality.
So here’s a simple frame:
Build your meals around real food.
Protein.
Vegetables.
A quality carb if you need it.
Healthy fats that come naturally with the food.
That’s it.
For me, that looks like:
Breakfast:
3–4 eggs cooked in olive oil, sautéed spinach, some berries on the side. Salt. Simple. Tastes great.
Lunch:
Grass-fed ground beef or grilled chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, big plate of roasted zucchini and peppers. Add avocado. Done.
Dinner:
Wild caught salmon, rice or potatoes, a big salad with olive oil and lemon. Add a cheese that I'm feeling that evening.
Nothing fancy. Just real ingredients.
When you eat like this consistently, things shift.
Your energy smooths out.
Your cravings drop.
Your brain feels clearer.
Your workouts feel stronger.
And here’s the key, these meals actually taste good.
A well-salted steak with roasted carrots and crispy potatoes? That’s not punishment.
A bowl of Greek yogurt with berries, honey, and walnuts? That’s not restrictive.
Whole food doesn’t mean bland. It means intentional.
Most people are under-eating protein, over-eating hyper-processed convenience foods, and wondering why their focus is terrible by 3pm.
Your brain runs on your metabolic stability.
If your blood sugar is spiking and crashing all day, your cognition will follow.
This isn’t about perfection.
It’s about alignment.
If you want to think clearly, train hard, and show up well… your inputs have to match that goal.
Try this for 14 days:
Every meal = protein + vegetable.
Minimize ultra-processed food.
Cook more than you order.
Walk daily.
Lift a few times per week.
Nothing extreme.
Just whole ingredients. Repeated.
Performance nutrition isn’t sexy.
It’s stable.
And stability wins.
Look at your last few days of eating.
Are you building capability…
Or just chasing convenience?

Just a quick update: There won't be a video posted this week. It has been filmed and sent to the editor but there was an emergency they had to deal with so it will be delayed about a week. In the mean time, expect more insightful posts here. Turn on notifications so you don't miss anything and be sure to join in the convo!

I just want to pause for a second and say this.
One of my videos officially crossed 1 million views. This is my first time ever hitting that mark, and I’m honestly still trying to wrap my head around it.
But what matters more to me than the number is who that number represents.
That’s a million people who care about improving their lives.
A million people who want to think more clearly, live with more intention, and get stronger, mentally, physically, and emotionally.
I don't take that lightly
I’m incredibly grateful for every one of you who watched, shared, commented, or just quietly took something from that video and applied it to your life. Knowing this content is actually helping people slow down, focus, and feel more capable means everything to me.
I’m proud of this community. Truly.
And I’m excited for where we’re going next.
Thank you for being here. 💙

469 hours blocked.
Not as a flex.
As a constraint.
I don’t rely on willpower to beat distraction anymore.
I remove the decision altogether.
Brick’s been locking the same distracting apps for weeks now, and the interesting part isn’t just “productivity”, it’s how quickly your nervous system stops reaching for stimulation when it knows it’s not there.
Focus gets quieter.
Work gets simpler.
Your brain settles.
Happiness improves exponentially.
This is literally coming from someone who creates content as a job.
If you’re trying to rebuild attention, sometimes the most effective move is making distraction inaccessible.

I’m always transparent. This link is an affiliate link. I only recommend products I use and benefit from myself. There is also a non affiliate link on a recent video of mine if you prefer that.
Enjoy.

Doctor Reacts is back.
Short-form health content is a mess right now.
Some of it is genuinely helpful.
A lot of it is confidently wrong.
In today’s video, I react to viral health clips and break down:
• What’s actually useful
• What’s exaggerated
• And what could quietly be hurting your energy, focus, or metabolism
We talk sugar timing, morning carbs, lemon water myths, “cheap vs healthy” food, gratitude, and why nuance matters way more than hot takes.
This isn’t a takedown video.
It’s a clarity video.
If you’ve ever felt confused by health advice online, or tired of extremes, this one will land.
👉 Watch it here: https://youtu.be/sUbNSnbNMl4
Curious…
Which viral health claim do you want me to react to next?

Trying something new.
For the next little while, I’m opening up a number where you can text me one thing you’re stuck on related to focus, energy, consistency, or health.
I can’t do ongoing coaching or medical care over text, but I’ll do my best to give you some clear direction or framework that might help.
This is completely optional and opt-in.
By texting, you’re okay with me replying and occasionally pointing you to resources I’ve created if they’re relevant.
Text “Hi” to:
3477734317
I’ll read every message. No guarantees on response time.
Disclaimer:
This is for general educational guidance only, not medical advice. By texting, you agree that you understand and agree to that.

If you had to simplify your life by 20% starting tomorrow… what would you cut first?
I’m not talking about “doing nothing” or quitting your job.
I mean: what’s the one thing that’s adding noise, friction, or low-grade stress… that you’ve just gotten used to?
Could be:
• an app you check out of reflex
• a “routine” that’s secretly a productivity performance
• a commitment you say yes to out of guilt
• a mental loop you replay every day that drains your energy
Here’s the rule: cut what costs you more than it gives you.
Even if it looks responsible. Even if it looks impressive.
Drop yours below, and if you want, add why it’s hard to cut.

I don’t want to waste your time, and I don't plan on harping on this much, so I’ll be concise. I just know that many of you are very interested in this.
I’m opening a very small number of spots in my private community and offering 50% off, the cheapest it’s ever been... for a very short window.
This isn’t content.
It’s implementation, structure, accountability, and direct access to me, for one on one, customized guidance.
If you’re serious about improving your focus, energy, health, performance, and direction this year, the upside here is massive.
Once the spots are filled, this closes.
No extensions.
Use the code NEWYEAR2026 for 50% off and get in now:

If you’ve been waiting for the right moment, this is it.
