That was me back in 2016 on the left. I spent most of my free time watching sports, drinking beer or playing video games. I was overweight, in a miserable marriage and basically settling into an unhappy and unfulfilling life.
The pic on the right was just a couple years later. I’m competing as an elite in an obstacle course in Chattanooga. In just one year I had lost 25 pounds. I’ve authored multiple books and started my own online business.
In that short time, I’ve made a lot of signficant changes to my life and this has led to many accomplishments!

I struggled with my own quarter life crisis when I graduated from the University of Illinois and found myself moving to a small town. I had traded in my apartment and roommates for a nicer apartment living alone. I traded in the exciting college town that always had something to do for a quaint midwestern town.
My first week there, I walked into a small bar and I asked the bartender to turn on the hockey game, but she was clueless to which game I was referring. It was the Stanley Cup. It was at that moment that I knew I was in for an adjustment. After the initial novelty of getting a steady paycheck wore off, I found myself in a bit of a quarter life crisis. Life had gone from 60 to 0.
I began to buy into the lie that college is the best time of your life. Most of my days revolved around working long hours, hitting the gym and then watching a movie with a cocktail. Occasionally I’d go to the bars with my coworkers but these sleepy towny bars were a far cry from the college bars full of hot young women. The intelligent and motivated drunks were replaced with depressed and older drunks. In both situations the energy was infectious.
Despite having an amazing college experience, some of the best years in my life were yet to come. It just took some growing pains and readjustments to my daily routine for me to realize this. Unfortunately, many men never figure this out.
My girlfriend was still in college and I would go visit her about once a month. She was more interested in pursuing a career and subconsciously I knew it wouldn’t last. I found myself spending more time hanging with my friends when I went back to Champaign to visit her. In hindsight this was probably for the best as she is no longer in my life yet those friends are.
When you’re young and naïve, you look at the world romantically, so you expect these relationships you forge to last forever. The truth is, due to geography and personal growth, most of these relationships have deadlines. No one really warns you about this. You’ll outgrow many of your friends, or they may outgrow you. Eventually they’ll get families and move across the country. It becomes impossible to keep them all in your life.
