What’s Mine Is Mine

Following my recent post regarding attempting to “tear others down” to make yourself feel better.

How we treat others is a direct reflection of who we are on the inside in the moment.

I’ve witnessed this over and over again and have had to audit who I was and how I was treating others over the years due to my own negativity I was fostering within myself.

A great thing to focus on is “what’s mine is mine and what’s theirs is theirs” meaning, if you are causing no harm and someone’s sharing negativity back, that’s their bullshit. Not yours.

Being confident enough in our own actions and walking our truth is key to not letting others affect how we feel. Because, when we have an emotional state it leads us to taking action one way or another.

If we are in a negative emotional state, guess what, we’re probably not going to take the action we’re proud of.

You can see with that how others may treat us, or try to, treat us poorly and how it’s on them, not us.

We’re not responsible for how others want to lead their life or their emotional states. We’re only responsible for our emotions and actions.

Own your shit and step into your power.

Gratitude= Key To Abundance

Comment “yes” if you agree.

No matter what your belief is in which gave you life, how can you expect more if you’re not grateful for the life you have now and all that’s in it?

It’s not about being happy about the “bad” or having to be perfect. It’s not about ignoring that things happen that we don’t always want.

It’s about perspective and fostering a perspective of gratitude to be a living human being with an opportunity to manifest the life you envision for yourself.

It’s about being grateful to feel emotions of all kinds and to have the ability to breath.

No matter what you’re going through, 2 things:

1) someone has it worse.

2) shit could always be worse.

If you’re reading this right now, YOU won and have the ability to make your tomorrow better.

Shoot, you have the ability to make your immediate presence better NOW.

Rather than waiting for “this or that” to make you “happy”, choose to be happy now because YOU literally have all the control to do so. Nothing and no one else.

Once you take accountability for your life, accept your power and CHOOSE to own your life, you’ll see massive shifts occur.

It’s all a choice. Choice the life you want. Don’t let life happy to you.

Allow life to happen FOR you.

2.5 Months Off The Bike

It’s weird how much I do and don’t miss this right now.

I’m on a whole other trajectory with my life and businesses that’s got me so fulfilled, excited, motivated and happy.

I have nothing but love and gratitude for BMX but it’s interesting to think about how dependent on it I was for my identity, emotional control, creative outlet and so on.

The hard choice to step away 100% has brought so many amazing people, experiences and opportunities to my life, literally has 5x’ed my income, and has allowed me to crest opportunity for my fitness and family to manifest the life they desire as well.

Testing Out Mom’s New Grill

Great weekend with my mom and @jciake testing out mom’s new grill.

My moms battled colon cancer in her past and who’s given me tons of strength and belief I could create the life I envisioned for myself and worked for.

She’s been drinking the @justpruvit exogenous ketones and feeling better and better. Drinking ketones are such a great way to introduce someone to the ketogenic lifestyle as they build awareness around their choices in all areas of life, especially what they consume.

As one benefits from drinking ketones, they can slowly incorporate pieces of the ketogenic diet to maximize their efforts and the benefits that come with the ketogenic diet and lifestyle. Final picture shows the feast we had consisting of chicken legs, a Brussel salad signature from Jackie, and some cauliflower rice washed down with some @justpruvit ketones.

I had “Life’s A Peach”, mom had “Lime Time”, and Jackie had water and stole some of mine.

Thanks for all you do and contribute to our table and health @justpruvit.

Dr. Ryan Lowery

Over a year ago I sent a DM to @ryanplowery with little to no expectation to get a response.

Less than 24 hours later I received a video message response full of love and positivity.

Fast forward a year and now we’re homies traveling the world speaking together and collaborating to share the keto conversation.

Ryan, just as all of my friends, feel as if we’re family that didn’t know it.

I consider Ryan a brother of mine and am honored to be in each other’s life and excited for all the change we bring to the world along with all the adventure and fun we have along the way.

Also, stay tuned for more content regarding our SPECT imaging with @doc_amen and @justpruvit exogenous ketones, among with content from @theaspi and all the fitness testing were gonna run me through.

Lance Armstrong

True or true?

Still have an email saved from 2010 post brian surgery that I wrote to @lancearmstrong and will share what that email container in person one day. I just know it!

Until then, I’ll just continue to share my gratitude and perspective I’ve gained from Lance over the years.

When I was originally diagnosed with the first brain tumor in 2010, I was on top of the world living out my dream as a pro BMX athlete beyond what I ever fathomed being possible.

When the diagnosis hit, I was a fresh 21 year old sitting in the doctors office ALONE waiting to get a report from a concussion I had received a few days prior. Never did I imagine I would be diagnosed with a massive brain tumor on accident.

I’m thankful it all happened and has worked out the way it has and Lance is one of many I have to thank for the mindset that was instilled in me on top of what my family, BMX, and my own journey instilled in me at a young age.

After a 6-hr surgery, 75 staples, and 16 stitches later, I was back riding in 5 weeks!

The fact that I’m still alive and able to love my life better than before is why I work so hard and share all I share.

It’s called GRATITUDE and PERSPECTIVE.

My Role In The Keto Conversation

Honored to play my role in the keto conversation.

The keto conversation is amazing and allows for anyone who’s passionate about a well formulated ketogenic diet AND exogenous ketones by @justpruvit which happen to be the FIRST and ONLY therapeutic ketones out.

What I have found helpful to others in regards to my efforts is walking and talking my truth and sharing my perspectives.

If you’re on purpose and just sharing your truth, you’ll inspire many and attract the right people, experiences, and energy into your life.

Honored to be apart of such a loving, persistent, and welcoming tribe of brain health warriors.

Brain Health Is Wealth

Wealth starts in the brain.

Wealth consists of what we feed our brains: food, beverage, sleep, content consumption (social media, news, entertainment, etc.), desires, thoughts, beliefs, self-talk, exercise, mindfulness, perspectives, and so on.

Literally, every choice we make affects our brain.

If we want success, health, wealth, love and abundance within all of these areas, we have to begin by loving ourselves and that means loving our brains!

What do you do daily to love your brain?

Luck

Do you believe in luck?

I don’t. I believe in doing the work to be prepared for the endless opportunities we’re surrounded by to create the life we envision. “Luck” is just when all those things align and you take action.

There’s not one thing I’d consider “lucky” about my life.

The difference in why I’m living the life I want and how I want to is because I was willing to grind through physical and mental pain, never give up, never lose sight of my purpose, and always have been really clear on what I will accept or decline in my life.

If we say others are lucky or “it must be nice” then I believe we are discrediting our own potential to foster success under our terms for our lives. We’re lacking accountability for our reality and we’re subconsciously programming our mind to not accept the fact we can have the life we desire.

Our thoughts, words, and actions are all powerful.

All I’ve been doing to become “lucky” is audit the 3 of them and preserve through obstacles to live life on my terms.

Coaching Jaka Remec

So proud of my Slovenia bro JAKA REMEC for taking 1st place at Fise Worlds and Pannonian Challenge back to back weekends recently!

We’ve been working together over a year now and to see the level of progression from Jaka on and off the bike is incredible.

He’s only 14 but rides and talks much older and is a pleasure to coach and hang out with.

His father is an example of how to support your children with their dreams just as my parents did for me.

For me to be able to mentor Jaka and share my experiences, perspectives, and knowledge with Jaka and his family is beyond a dream come true.

There’s no blueprint for BMX and the schools don’t yet credit or support BMX athletes. To be able to fill that void with my career experience and mindset/nutritional education means the world to me to be able to pass down to Jaka.

Can’t wait to see Jaka soon and train together again! Looking forward to what the futures holds for this talented athlete.
