Case study: Spinal Cord Injury: #cancer removal surgery: G. is a fine young man with a pretty smile and a family. He's a decent man. Accountant. Marathon (like true 42.2) #runner In 2020 he felt his back. Then, G. received the news nobody wishes to: he was diagnosed with spinal cancer and was operated.

The stock market is merely one of the tools to invest and secure our future. What "becomes" of us, when we enter the game - is up to us. We're the ones who define the game and make the game a game. Same is true when it comes to Fitness and taking stock of our health. "Competitions", or for a better term - Events, are merely a tool for investing in our health, keeping us motivated, and scaling our own progress. Yet, as with the stock market - we're the ones who give meaning and define, or to be exact - make the game. In this episode, I invite you to redefine the game! It's about time we, hop off the bullshit express and swap self-deception for self-expression. Enjoy! See you in the next episode. P.s.

What will you tell to a teenager, almost 18 years old, almost out of his parent's nest? What will you tell a teenager that rightfully brings up the unfairness OF, and IN life? What will tell him, not to make him revolt against, but to be a part of and work with? How will you guide him through the Matrix of Life, that's objectively unfair? What will you tell YOUR kids when they come to you with the exact same question? This is WHAT I told him. This IS what I tell my son. This is my answer. This is the true conversation we held on Jan 10th, 2023, between sets. Listen, Think. Practice. You may give the same answer when the time is due... Enjoy, and I see you in the next chapter.
