Story

I currently live in a converted mail truck on the island of Kauai. I have everything I need and nothing I don't.

I feel like a warrior-monk every day as I do my morning practice (meditation, breathwork, mantra, reading while absorbing sunlight by the beach).

I feel like a 'starving artist' as I budget for healthy meals and fast at least 12 hours a day. I feel very healthy though, it's odd. I used to think I need a lot more food but really I just need high quality food.

I feel like an engineer/architect as I reverse engineer my vision of the future into very clear blueprints and schematics.

All together, I operate like a general leading an army of early adopters and gaining the support of smarter and experienced allies who have done the things I want to do in life.

I have been rejected from YC twice, once in 2017 when I was 17 and last May but I see why and it has not discouraged me. Not one bit. It only motivated me to learn more and love myself more for not giving up, being open to trying new approaches.

I'd love to hear your 'origin stories' that looked crazy to everyone else and how they ultimately shaped you into who are you today.

MAHALO :)
