Think you're the smartest and the strongest in the world? Team USA will be doing a Tryout Tour in 2026. Interested in getting involved as a fighter, club, or sponsor? Reach out, champ!

The coach of the U.S. chess boxing team dropped out of law school to go all-in on the sport. Matt Thomas built the American team, which includes a lawyer, a Cornell math major, and a military veteran. In 2018, Thomas became the first American to win a world chess boxing title. cbsn.ws/3JNYqRT

@MovingWithMat I really want to see a variant of this with 32 boxers organized by weight class in a boxing ring with a chess board floor. Light weights = Pawns Heavy weight = Kings and Queens 2 GMs direct the moves of the fighters in the ring and the fight determines which piece gets lost.

I don't set goals like most others. I pick challenges that scare me, ones I'm likely to fail. Then, I use that fear of failure to fuel the discipline, drive, and progress to become the version of myself that has a better chance at that challenge. I did it for myself selling out venues, landing spots on emmy-award winning casts, and becoming a chessboxing world champion. Now, I coach others using the same goals system, Kaizen and Misogi, which I broke down for free in my latest newsletter. Check the first comment to give it a shot!

@Faux_Freedom Hot take: 6/6/26 will be the end of leagues and they’ll open it up for one day in Fally to massacre each other with OP leagues gear before it ends

And today, nearly 9 months after its release, Rebel Queen hits #1 on the Cold War History best-sellers list in audiobook! 🤷‍♀️🙏 As intended, it was written for everyone, and not just chess players! That was why it took me nearly 3 years to complete it, and it was much harder to write than any of my other (over a dozen) big selling chess books! amazon.com/Rebel-Queen-Mi… #RebelQueen

So proud to announce that I was able to accomplish both goals for my BoxBox Bootcamp Charity Challenge and raise $15,000+ for the @AlveusSanctuary and the Daniel Naroditsky Memorial Fund by reaching my all time high of Diamond and making top 10! Thank you so so much to @FlyQuest for starting this and to @PhenomPokerApp and @joinstacked for being willing to support such a worthy cause.

Take it from the greats State change management is the key You choose the door - I'll help you unlock it
Camus@newstart_2024

Novak Djokovic shut down the “mental toughness is a gift” myth in 90 seconds of pure gold. Interviewer: “Your mental strength is your greatest gift.” Djokovic: “I have to correct you. It’s not a gift. It’s work. Every single day.” He trains his mind like his serve: - Conscious breathing under maximum pressure - Feels the full storm of doubt & fear EVERY match - Rejects the fake “just think positive” nonsense “I acknowledge it. I might scream. Then I reset — fast.” The difference between 24 Slams and everyone else? How quickly you leave the darkness. This isn’t motivation porn. This is the actual operating system of the greatest ever. Watch with sound — it will rewire how you think about pressure.
