Let’s Prepare for 2026.
So originally, I wanted to use this site as a personal blog and as an outlet for the random things I think about. Silly me thought I’d be better at actually posting updates! I have learned I am in fact bad about writing.
I’m looking to rebuild that part of myself and set a more public goal to keep myself more accountable. Honestly, even writing this post is part of that process. Going forward, I’m aiming to post at least once a month with a “welcome to my life” update. Expect random food, places I visit, things I find interesting, and whatever else catches my attention (which is a lot). Some posts will dive into behind-the-scenes thoughts or processes from building and running Mantle. I might even stream some games here and there. Over the last year or so, I’ve taken health a lot more seriously. I originally weighed around 380 pounds and now I am currently around 225 pounds. I have a lot of work to do still and by forcing myself to be more publicly accountable, I’ll finish my goals strong.
Overall, I want to share more of my thoughts and experiences, and by putting my intentions out there, I’m keeping myself more accountable, even if almost no one ever reads this.
Here’s to 2026.
