@nathanazareth 2025: -shut down a $3m/yr info business and found real purpose in my work -Developed a real relationship with myself & my inner world (probably the biggest W this whole year) -Got into the best shape of my life (strength, cardio, physique, & athleticism) -strengthened my relationships with family, friends, and girlfriend -Travelled for 75+ nights (continued to see the world) & set some goals so big it kinda scares me. Now.. if you’re asking yourself why you’re even reading this because it sounds like I’m just bragging, I get you. Let me share something else: It’s difficult to explain in words but my quality of life at the beginning of this year was worse than when I had $-2000 to my name & hadn’t achieved anything meaningful yet. I was out of focus, misaligned, teeming with anxiety and overwhelm, and felt a deep regret for the way I had spent years of my life. I wish I could share with you the magic trick I used to turn things around, but the truth is there is none. I just did the work that we all know we have to do, but wakeup and choose to run from every day. Instead of focusing on the outer-world, 2025 was the year I turned inward and discovered who I am, what I value most, how to control my emotions and thoughts, and how to live freely. That sounds like some motivational word porn I know, so let me just cut to the biggest lesson that helped me this yr: Being free, and having freedom are two different things. I spent years chasing “freedom” and by every metric I achieved it. Location freedom, time freedom, even full financial freedom. yet I felt more trapped than when I had none of that. This took me embarrassingly long to figure out, but I finally learned that being free has nothing to do with what you have, and has everything to do with who you are. If you are searching for freedom in the outer world, you’re in the wrong place. You already have the answers inside, you just have to know where to look. Keep going, I believe in you. Thanks to 2025 for being the greatest teacher yet, here’s to 2026🥂❤️
