This is probably the best piece I've ever written. If you have an addictive personality, this is how you stop fighting your nature and use it to your advantage, step by step. Block out 10-15 minutes, sit with it, and read it slowly.

We are giving back more than any other project and will continue to see those contributing to solana:EJAxERvKU4kEVXn3NarjvRtgaMaJyP9ZuMeKA7JJpump positively. Let’s keep it going … in this market it’s even more important. WE SEE YOU ❤️

A full year. It wasnt pure leaf, rather the concentrated synthetic variant. About the same for opioids, although i didnt use them every day like i did the kratom shots, more like 3-4 days per week. Kratom went from a half a shot, to one, to one and a half, then at 2 ... when that didn't suffice ... i thought to myself wtf. I had tried to quit 2 times before and was unsuccessful. The insomnia was the worst for me, ended up having some at night, just to sleep. I had some important business happening that i need to be sharp for. Whats crazy ... is even after being sober for 45 days now, I still feel a pull towards using it, almost daily. I love and miss it, truly, but...I know i can never have it again...it was much too hard to come off. People can hate all they want. I am not trying to boycott kratom, and I am not throwing shade for those who have / are using it successfully. It seems as though most aren't being honest with themselves and are justifying its use (like i was). This experience is mine alone, and I am only sharing to reach those who are like i was, and needing someone to give them hope ... that quitting can be done. Thanks for having a respectful conversation.

My nootropics tier list after years of testing on myself.

Lots and lots of fear… …when it’s hardest to buy, when you’re stomach is in knots, and when it seemingly looks like it’ll go down forever… …is usually when the best buying opportunities present themselves.

It's mind-blowing that Soviet doctors injected Chernobyl clean-up crews with a peptide from calf thymus. Somehow, the protocol ended up in a US patent owned by a company just outside Seattle. The peptide is called thymalin. Basically, it's a mixture of thymic peptides. There's an immune organ behind your sternum called the thymus, and its job is to train and activate T-cells. Thymalin therapy started in 1986, within the first few weeks after the Chernobyl accident. In all, 348 residents and workers were examined (320 men and 28 women). Many of them came in with weakness, a scratchy throat, a cough, acute eye pain and a metallic taste in the mouth. The wildest part is the roof. Thymalin was given to a small group of workers who participated in sealing the roof of reactor 3. 20 volunteers got it, starting one day before the work. 20 other volunteers were given glucose tablets, as a control. In 1995, a licence for thymogen, another Soviet thymus peptide, was sold to the US. It was one of only five original Soviet and Russian drugs ever licensed abroad, and three of the five were peptides. The Chernobyl protocols now sit in US Patent 6,777,195, owned by Cytran, Inc. of Kirkland, Washington. Of course, all of this is the inventors' own data, and I couldn't find anyone who repeated it. Still, it seems that if you only searched Western medical journals, you’d miss a surprising amount of the Soviet work on peptides.

The market is testing us. It can't break me. And it can't break ChooChoo. I've lost everything twice. Started from nothing. And I've learned to be grateful for every test life throws at me, because every single time, I come out stronger. Better. With more abundance than before. Few make it to the other side. It's been that way since the beginning of time. Success is reserved for the strongest. An exclusive group who won't accept defeat, who are willing to put it all on the line for what they believe in. I believe in $CHOO. And I believe in us.

Excited to share my 60-day FLGR results this week. 2 weeks ago I said I didn't know if the extra weight was fat, muscle, or a combination of the two. Just got my third DEXA back. Let's just say I'm a lot happier than after the first one. Full breakdown coming soon.

I'm 44 days sober from kratom. I've come off OxyContin and coke before. This was harder. And kratom is the mild version. What gas stations sell now is 7-OH, and it's a different animal. You can't get cocaine at 7-Eleven. You can get kratom drinks there, with turmeric on the label, so I told myself it's not the same thing (it still kind of is). At one point I was ready to pay $20,000 for a retreat. I ended up doing it at home, filling every free hour with training, reading and journaling. In the leaf, 7-OH makes up less than two percent of the alkaloids. But it can be made from mitragynine in a one-step chemical reaction, and the gas station stuff is way more concentrated. According to the FDA, it's an opioid that can be more potent than morphine. Basically, it binds to the same receptors in the brain as morphine and over-activates your reward circuit. So your brain turns the volume down, the way you would on a radio that's too loud. Over time you feel flat and lifeless without it, and you need the drug just to feel normal. That's when quitting gets ugly. The DEA has found 7-OH in 85 overdose cases since 2019, often mixed with other drugs. 55 people didn't make it. If the plant knocked me on my a**, stay far away from the concentrate.

I've started my yearly birthday tests. This year I'm taking: - Mold and toxicity - Stool test (gut health) - Epigenetics - Microplastics - DNA - DUTCH (hormones) AMA.

Drugs compress meaning, challenge, ritual and relief into a single repeatable act. Ordinary life can't match that. So you need a pursuit that can absorb the full voltage and escalate for years. For me it was the gym, then building companies. Boredom is the relapse trigger.

At one point, I was ready to pay $20,000 for a retreat just to get sober from kratom. Look at this. Kratom calls to US poison centers barely moved for 6 years. Then in 2025 they more than doubled, to 3,434. You can't get cocaine at a gas station, but you can get this. I'm over 40 days sober from kratom, and it's literally one of the worst withdrawal experiences I've had (and I used to snort cocaine). Just stay away from this drug.

Where’s CHOO ??

I did over $100M in a decade. I can't remember the day the exit money hit the account. They took down my YouTube. Fourteen years of work, gone in an afternoon. Within hours I felt relief. That scared me more than losing it did. Nobody warns you that hitting the number feels like nothing. So you pick a bigger number and call it ambition. You can't out-produce the feeling that you're only worth what you make. I tried for thirty years. I built the body, the brands, the following. I still couldn't sleep. Happiness is created on the way to the goal. Not at the goal. I had to lose a lot of money to learn a sentence that short.

Most disciplined men aren't disciplined. They're scared. Discipline is just fear with better branding. The discipline everyone admired was fear in a costume. The kind of costume the world claps for. If your routine falls apart and you feel panic instead of disappointment, that's not a routine. That's a cage with good lighting.
