Unchained Discipline. Why Freedom Demands Structure with Multiple Sclerosis.
Everybody talks about freedom like it’s some magic pill. Do whatever you want. Sleep when you feel like it. Eat what you crave. Skip the grind. Sounds nice in theory.

It’s a beautiful fantasy—the belief that we are masters of our fate, untouchable Continue reading

Nietzsche in the Gym. Becoming the Man Who Refuses to Stay Down. Nietzsche didn’t care about comfort. He didn’t write for men chasing soft lives or waiting for easy days.

Fight Rounds. Training Like Every Set Is a Battle.
Life doesn’t hit you once and walk away. It comes in waves. It comes in rounds. Short bursts of chaos followed by brief moments to breathe before the next hit comes swinging. Some rounds you dominate. Some rounds you barely survive. But the bell always rings again. Always. Boxing taught me this first. Three minutes Continue reading
