The Army was supposed to test my discipline, but I was constantly fighting my own brain, struggling with basic tasks and following orders.
After leaving, I launched project after project, only for them to collapse. Anytime real results were close, I’d freeze from panic and anxiety.
The Low Point
My personal life was in shambles. I destroyed every meaningful relationship because I didn’t know how to listen, express myself, or make real progress. I was completely repressing my emotions.
The "Aha" Moment
Everything shifted when I met my fiancée. She helped me realize how much I was holding back.
I read Atomic Habits and started researching my ADHD. That’s when it hit me: I needed to stop forcing my brain into a neurotypical mold and build a system that works with it.
The Result
Once I built a system around my wiring, the self-sabotage stopped:
- Rebuilt my mindset and relationships.
- Took my band from zero to playing in Europe within months.
- Now I travel back and forth to Europe living a totally new life.
Stop fighting your own brain, start building systems for it.
