I wish @AIMPCoach would turn his blogs into articles here on @X In his recent blog, he’s been saying things I’ve seen for almost a decade immersing myself in all aspects of endurance - from racing to building a business. Most don’t understand mental toughness and suffering. They confuse these words. They think Goggins and Honold are immortal due to their ability; but these guys are just humans and as Chris eloquently writes: “Critically, a bigger engine also builds what I call earned mental fitness — not the grind-it-out mentality, but the learned ability to push, pace, and stay cognitively and emotionally present under sustained discomfort” Learning how to stay present under sustained discomfort should be the goal for everyone, not just the adventure ready athlete. open.substack.com/pub/aimpcoachi…

@Michaelfiore @UrbanhomesteadX That’s a good price. I was getting the best compost I could find, 15 yards with delivery for around $1,100. Sifted top soil for $20/yard and $500 with delivery for 12/yards

Does anyone have any good data on whether restaurant rewards actually drive higher sales? I know most restaurants claim visits are higher with rewards members, but I question whether that is correlation or causation. @jonathanmaze or @McFranchisee ?

This little restaurant in Santa Monica sells Fruit Omakase for $60. They have reservations going back weeks now. They make it a point to source the best ingredients, hand done technique all from Japan. I’ve become obsessed with these businesses that are high margin experiences that happen to serve food as a core part of the experience. (Elly Amai in Santa Monica)

Train Dreams might not have won any awards last night. But this film is like an antidote to our dopamine-addicted world. Slow down your scroll for a moment and just sit with this for a moment. Here’s to the slow work of beauty in transforming the human heart.

Proud owner of the most AI-proof business to appear on @tbpn
TBPN@tbpn

Epic Gardening founder @KevinEspiritu explains how selling raised garden beds kicked off the process that took his media business from $250K to $7.1M in under 3 years: “The beauty of having content is that you kind of get a pre-validation engine for what you might want to put out there. There was this raised bed I had — a metal garden bed that had been sent to me — and I was like, this is the thing I get asked the most about, so I’ll figure out how to sell it." "I didn’t even know who gave it to me initially, so I tracked down the manufacturer. It was an Australian company, and I just kept emailing them every quarter. I was like, can I sell this? Can I sell this? They said no, no, no, no, no. They eventually said yes. I think I had $70K in the business bank account. I spent $40K on a shipping container." "I made an Instagram Story, and said, hey, all these beds you guys keep asking about are here now. I have 550 of them. They sold out in two days. I used that cash to buy another container. Sold that out in two days. So by the end of the year, I think we did a quarter mil just on that. So the business doubled." "And then, of course, setting that up before the global pandemic was insane. So we went from $500K to like $2.8M to $7.1M the next year, and then raised a Series A." "But yeah, I mean, immediately I was like, oh, this is obviously the actual revenue driver behind this business."

@LukeBarnett Clint is a dear friend and being there was the moment for him. Him and the team made a beautiful masterpiece and that’s what he can control, everything else is a nice dividend

My only real Oscars critique: there was basically no mention of TRAIN DREAMS. My favorite film of the year, nominated for Best Picture. Felt like the movie didn't even exist. Anyway, if you haven't seen it, I can't say enough...

@AllyTaft Yep. Zero authenticity, everyone is trying to throw their dick around copying someone else. I’m all about the originality
