    I’ve just taken up a new hobby:  spelunking.  It’s me and four tourists wandering through the caves, when suddenly, we realize we’re lost.  The creepiness builds up; we’re seeing pale, wormy, multi-legged things, eyeless fishes eeling through pools of water, and every now and then, a pair of glowing eyes that vanish when we try…

    While others hit the snooze button, weaponize your mind and body.  The concept of the warrior-monk need not be relegated to some romantic asceticism; it can be done in every second of every day.   And it starts by waking up while the world’s asleep.

    I’m a velociraptor motha duckas!  I’m running around the Cretaceous plains with me and my velociraptor buddies, jacking protoceratopses.  Every now and then if we want a challenge, we’ll go after a brontosaur.  I’ve even made a little deinonychus buddy named Bitefighter.  We’re all sleeping off a meal, sunbathing on the rocks, when suddenly we hear:  “Ca-CAW!”…

    I actually used to be pretty lazy.  Then I found out that if you don’t put in the work, the universe will PUT YOU to work.   I’m still lazy at heart.  From my lazy man’s point of view, it has simply become more pleasurable and convenient to put forth my best effort.  Ironic?  Yes.  True?…

    I’m riding a giant were-jackal over the high plains of Leng.  Life is good; on a daily basis I kill an evil wizard, three apyodons, and usually acquire a magic amulet or two.  I’m chilling by my campfire with my were-jackal—Bitefighter—grilling up some leoptrix steaks.  Suddenly, I see a sinister quartet of cloaked wanderers crest a…

    Pursue the next great adventure, even as the traps spring on you and the scar tissue accumulates.  If you’re forced off the path, consult the map of your experience and find a new way.  Keep going and you’ll find treasure.  Because really, what’s the alternative?  Being stuck in time, always afraid of the next obstacle?  We…

    Sweet!  New company gym!  Slinging steel is a perfect cure for TPS reports.  Weeks pass and I fall more and more in love with the gym; aside from the few nerds using the ellipticals, it’s pretty much all mine.  Strangely though, I’m garnering more and more resentful looks.  One day the hate culminates; I’m in…

    At the beginning of endeavors, evolution is paired with pleasure.  Then we get to that familiar crossroads—where we must choose between evolution or wallowing in comfort.  The choice that’s made at those moments determines whether or not we build character.  I’ve made a lot of bad choices during those moments, but the cool part is I’m faced with…
