I lived in survival mode for years. Controlling what I could. Bracing for what might go wrong. On the outside people thought I was strong, but on the inside I was broken. Something had to change. It wasn’t easy, it took time, a mindset shift, resilience, courage, but I managed to switch everything round. Giving up alcohol was the enabler for this switch. If this resonates, give this message a like or send me a DM.

@jonbrosio Whenever i recruit, 70% is about the persons character. Qualifications show that they might have a level of intelligence, but it doesn’t mean they will be any good.

It's crazy how many people collect degrees and certifications like they're building armor Hoping that enough credentials will protect them from having to take real risks Education is valuable But it's not a substitute for courage

You're a leader and you are drinking more than 5 nights a week, which is likely to be more than 50 units a week At some point you realise: No one is coming to fix this. That’s when you start the process.

Nothing more grounded than someone who’s rebuilt from scratch.

@edgaralandough And be comfortable with the personality which you have. Make it your superpower💪

A major cheat code in life: Your personality will get you 10x richer than your intelligence. Be easy to work with. Kind when others aren’t. Calm when things fall apart. Intelligence alone is overrated.

@FITNESS__WINS Well done on 10 days🙌 Getting to double figures is a great milestone. Keep the focus and keep building those days💪

Had a tough 2026 so far. Kept reaching for the booze to solve life stress. 10 days sober today. Feeling great 😀💪

@pmitu More of an ultra 😉

Startup is not a sprint, it's a marathon.

@wisdomXplorer I am quite happy with who I am. I know my strengths and I manage my weaknesses.

What’s your biggest struggle as an introvert?

@DavidDack It depends what you are trying to get from your running. Both options have their place. Strength and conditioning along with building a good cardio base.

Is it better to run longer and slower or shorter and faster?

Alcohol doesn’t help you relax it delays your recovery. - You feel calmer tonight. - You pay for it tomorrow morning. That’s the trade. Decide if it’s still worth it.

@KayTheRunna I love a morning run. It sets the day up for success.

Morning miles are the best kind of deposits. 🏃🏾‍♂️💨 5km in the books to set the tone for the day. Consistency over everything.

@ChamberofFit There is nothing to be gained by doom scrolling for hours on end.

The obesity rate would plummet if the average person walked for the equivalent of even 25% of their daily screen time.

@readswithravi Never underestimate your self-discipline. It’s your biggest super power.

Discipline is the highest form of self-love.

@HappySoberCo Well done Scott. Some days are really tough, but these are the days when you build your strength. Keep the focus and keep building the days.

11 months sober. That didn’t come from luck, it came from showing up every day when I didn’t feel like it. No excuses. No shortcuts. Just one decision at a time.

@JuliaEMcCoy It’s recognising that you never stop learning, so what are you actually waiting for? Never let perfection get in the way of making progress.

The people who will thrive aren’t the smartest. They’re the ones who started before they were ready, adapted faster than everyone around them, and never stopped building.

@russellbrunson As long there is value is what you do, its learning how to make people say “yes”

Most people quit after the first few no’s. Entrepreneurs keep knocking

@patrickbetdavid People are driven by their mindset, and that it is easier to resent others rather than look for friendship, no matter how well you carry yourself.

Carry yourself in such a way where people seek your friendship and would never risk becoming your enemy.

A conversation can be uncomfortable and empowering at the same time. That’s what happens when feedback is rooted in belief, and not blame.

@ValaAfshar The writing element is the bit many seem to struggle with, or are reluctant to give the required time.

Read to improve your writing. Write to improve your thinking.

@mindandglory And that’s how you grow and develop in life. Lording over the wins for too long leads to complacency.

An intelligent man studies his failures harder than he celebrates his wins.

@IAmSteveHarvey Helping other people grow through self development. Everyone becomes a winner.

What is something you could do all day and never get tired of?
