Mission
My goal each week is to help you access the good life.

If you spend enough time with my writing, you’ll:
Take more action
Find your obsession
Stop being told what to do
See opportunities where everyone else sees problems
Quit perfectionism, overthinking, and the need to be an expert
Sign up now so you can transition to this way of life sooner.
(By the way, my Substack is now a bestseller & read by over 100,000 people each week.)
About Me (no Oscar speech, I promise)
In short
For 10 years I’ve written on the internet every day. I’ve had 1B+ views on my content to date across my Medium, LinkedIn, Wordpress website, Substack, and Twitter/X.
Through writing I’ve been able to build a 7-figure academy. My greatest achievement in life is my 1 year old daughter.
Details
I quit my banking career forever to write this Substack. It’s the main thing I do so you can be guaranteed I don’t do it half-assed. This is my life, my obsession.
Let me tell you about my life by starting with failures. Weird, I know, but it’s where the best lessons are learned.
From early childhood I suffered from undiagnosed mental illness. The thoughts in my head felt like torture.
At 18 I became a DJ … and an alcoholic.
At 26 I walked away from my successful startup with 100+ employees. This is when I got diagnosed with severe mental illness.
In 2011 I went on a journey of recovery. It was f*cking hard. In 2013 I accidentally came across a tall giant with big teeth named Tony Robbins.
His books, videos and live events changed how I thought. I went from being a victim of society to owning my life and all the problems I created. My psychology shifted and I started writing about the transformation. That led me to write on a friend’s blog, then LinkedIn, then Medium, and now Substack.
In 2016 I became single for the first time in a long time. I returned to heavy drinking while trying to find love.
In 2019 I got fired from my job by a tyrant boss who worked me into the ground and used his special leadership formula known as “mortgage motivation.” Translation: If you didn't do your job, you would be homeless.
I then spent 6 months unemployed and was the joke of LinkedIn with 300,000 followers at the time and no job, giving career advice to strangers.
From 2011 to 2021 I worked in finance and built my writing career and online business on the side. In May 2021 I quit banking forever and became free.
That’s when I accessed what I now call the good life. It’s a life I want more people to experience by reading my Unfiltered publication on Substack.
My crazy promise to you
In this Substack I promise to do the following:
I will give you every part of me.
I will tell you the tough stories that have brought me to tears.
I will tell you things that make me look stupid or weak.
I will inspire you and give you hope, rather than be negative like clickbait mainstream media.
I will respond to every single comment with in-depth replies.
Promise me this in return….
I don’t want you to agree or disagree with my opinion. I simply want to make you think. When you think deeply your entire life changes.
That mental shift is what creates personal freedom, helps you join the new rich, and lets you become part of the Digital Renaissance.
We’re about to have some fun and learn a sh*t ton along the way. Yay.
*Happy dances*
(Warning: There will be swear words occasionally.)

Great post Tim. Recently came across your work and I can relate to your entrepreneurial journey. Like you I've been up at the heights building businesses and then watched them crash and burn and had to start all over again (the only difference is I had the family first)! But I wouldn't change it, it's all learning and adds to the flavor of life and the direction we go.
Best newsletter out there!
Also I’m stealing the idea of creating a Hero Post for my substack. Brilliant idea. Thanks Tim. Been a big fan of your writing for years
