I’m having such an incredible time here in Madeira.
I’ve been working out every day, eating lots of delicious meat, fish and vegetables and doing 100 pushups a day to $100K.
I have rarely travelled to Bitcoin/Nostr events but that’s about to change.
It’s so great to be surrounded by Bitcoiners. I’m actually coming back from this trip in better shape mentally and physically. I’ve lost 3 lbs of fat while I’ve been here for 8 days and I’ve been waking up at 5-6 am.
I’ve gotten so many positive messages from people I met for the first time at the conference and side events, surprisingly many even listen to my podcast 😅
I’m going to record an episode for the first time in 5 months tomorrow with PABLOF7z (npub1l2v…ajft) who really surprised me when he said he was a fan of my pod and encouraged me to record again 😀
Some exciting belly to belly things happening here with FREE Madeira, Sovereign Engineering, lots of bitcoin folks have moved here, and it’s no wonder why.
Plus what a great location it was for the Bitcoin Film Festival & the Startup Pitch Fest which I got to participate in!
I’m lucky to be in a position to have such a close proximity to people like Excellion (npub1exc…n72a) and NVK (npub1az9…m8y8) who I consider close friends and advisors as well as co-investors in great bitcoin companies.
Also got some great 1 on 1 time with people I look up to a lot like preston (npub1s5y…6q7z) who gave me a great framework of thinking about how to be a good leader and focus on delegation and taking responsibility.
A great cliff side sunset walk with ROCKSTAR (npub1j8y…vrvg) which I’ll never forget, and a protein packed Damus BBQ with jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) and his family & friends discussing webs of trust and nostr redaction.
I got a great sauna session in with miljan (npub16c0…6nvr) and his son Marko discussing overcoming fears and limiting beliefs, health and the future.
I have missed many opportunities and offers in the past couple of years because I had a “ceiling of complexity” … but because of my new daily health & mental level-up routine, i am choosing Jeff Booth (npub1s05…eyhe)'s PICNUF framework to focus on the positive.
I also hired a coach, Dan Martell, and I’m fired up! I was talking to Aleks Svetski and he said he could feel my shifted energy 😀
I’m going to build a team and build my citadel (figuratively for now) and be more proactive about expanding my impact to help lift up my community, my family and as many startup founders and bitcoin culture contributors that I can.
I went through a thought exercise in January- if BTC was at $1 million tomorrow, would I be able to build an actual citadel? The answer was no. So I’ve been making big changes in my life to make sure I am the person who can building a citadel one day.
Who can? Brad Mills Can 😀
I also got a chance to briefly shake hands with (but not yet spend any time with) saylor (npub15dq…lm5m) and jack (npub1sg6…f63m) who have inspired me greatly over the last few years.
Saylor’s “cheerful and constructive” message has been in the back of my mind as a self correcting mechanism for how I interact with bitcoin critics and shitcoiners.
Jacks commitment to right the karmic scales and be a net positive for freedom and free speech has inspired me to invest in many educational and bitcoin tech companies in Africa and Latin America - which surprisingly, Jack followed on to 2 or 3 of them in later rounds, showing I am on to something with my investing strategy.
I shook hands with and/or hugged and spent time with or broke bread with many many awesome people, and a bunch I wish I got to spend more time with.
I have a massive list of selfies with beautiful people and notes on the exciting things they are doing.
I’m going to start going to more of these events so I can develop closer relationships with all of you who are my tribe!
Excited to also be spending time with my wife and daughter while I’m here, because my wife is Portuguese and I’d love for us to get passports!
Thought I would share my positive thoughts as I’m driving to the west side of the island to see 15 foot waves 🌊
