A lot of people write me and tell me they're miserable. They hate their job. They're not healthy and they're tired all the time They don't feel like they're doing anything that matters. But...when it comes to making a change...they hesitate. When I bring up Cold Shower Therapy, they pause. They have excuses, reasons they're an exception or send me hate mail. (Seriously, I've gotten more hate mail from people on that one piece than ...
2,000 Dollars & 48 Hours
How much time would it take for you to drastically change your life? There's usually 2 schools of thought here – little by little or all at once. Both work, but if you're wanting to change a bunch of things at once, I think changing your location is the way to go. Which leads to an interesting thought experiment: How much would that actually cost? How long would that really take? Could you actually do it? Now most people dismiss this out of ...
4 Killer Workouts from Living with a Seal That Will Push Your Limits
I finished reading Living with a Seal in about 3 hours this week. It's a good read and you can read my main takeaways here. The quick rundown is Jesse Itzler has done quite a few things (former rapper, sold a private jet company, ZICO, Hawks owner, and married Sara Blakely of Spanx to name a few), but he got a little too comfortable. So he hired a former Navy SEAL to come live and train him for a month. He doesn't mention who SEAL is by name in the ...

Cold Shower Therapy App Updates + Android Is HERE!
It’s been a while since I’ve done an update on our app business, but today I’ve got good news. The little app building gremlins have been hard at work behind the scenes - rebuilding our database, updating stats and adding new features to our suite of apps, but today I’m talking about CST - Cold Shower Therapy. I’ve been using the app this year to get out side of my head and kicked off this year with 100 straight cold showers + had one of the most ...
Practical Resources To Get Out of Your Head and Back In The Game
Stuck? Find yourself asking questions, playing out worst-case scenarios and trying to opt out of making decisions or an impact? Happens all the time. Delay the decisions and pick your vice to kill some time and delay the responsibility - food, weed, booze, TV, drugs, Facebook, gambling. All great ways to forget about problems. Not really great ways to solve them. Despite the travel over the last couple months, I found myself sinking into some ...
How To Know When To Quit Or Keep Going
When do you quit and when do you keep going? How do you know when you're doing something impossible, if you need to keep going or if you need to quit and try something else. A lot of times people say they feel like they're banging their head against a wall. Everyone asks this & most people don't like the answer. Here's my answer: most people just give up too soon. There are a lot of things you can do just by wanting it more than anyone else ...
Inside StrikeThru – The Analog System Tripling My Productivity
For the past few weeks, I've been more creative than ever. I've written more blog posts, more emails and made forward progress on more things in the last 6 weeks than I have in the last 6 months. Part of that has been due to the lack of legal fiascos I've had to deal with (more on that later), as well as some traveling I've been doing, but most of it is due to a new habit I've picked up for helping me control my thought processes and get stuff ...
Why I’m Launching Impossible.org
Today, I'm excited to introduce you to Impossible.org - a new site for all of the philanthropic initiatives at Impossible. Since I've started Impossible, I've had an eye towards giving back - specifically on a global scale. This is mostly because when you realize how fortunate you are (and if you're reading this blog, that includes you - no matter how bad you think your current situation is - you have the freedom to read this and the leisure time to ...
Wear Impossible Gear – Win $250 (Here’s How)
One of my focuses going into this year is upgrading our Impossible Gear line with more functional and awesome gear (starting with the resilient shirt - one of my favorites and a helpful reminder this year). However, in addition to the gear itself, a big part of it will be revamping the site and I want YOU to be on it. Yeah - that's right - you. Here's the deal. I can do all the impossible poses I want (and don't worry, I definitely will), but I ...
