Are you ready for a sneak peek of the best of Project Life Mastery in 2018?
As 2018 comes to a close, I've taken some time to sit back and reflect upon what has unfolded this past year.
I'm so grateful for the amazing people I met, the lessons I learned, the goals that I achieved, and all of the unforgettable memories that I will never forget.
I invite you to connect with the power of every moment of every day. Find the extraordinary in the ordinary, and share those experiences with people that you love and admire.
In the words of Dan Millman, “Life is a series of moments. The quality of attention and action that we bring to each moment determines the quality of our lives.”

Project Life Mastery had a lot of magic moments in 2018.
Before I close the chapter on another year I always take some time to engage in a process of self-introspection. I'm immensely proud of what my team and I have achieved this past year. It's so important to reflect upon your milestones. Doing so allows you to understand where you've been, where you currently are, and where you're going.
I encourage you to make it a priority to celebrate your wins, no matter how small they are. The act of celebrating changes your physiology and strengthens your psychology, thereby reinforcing your success. If you don't acknowledge your progress, it's easy to let another year pass without much thought.
Those of you who follow me know that I'm always striving to master every area of my life. Every aspect of your life is interconnected and influences one another. If you are struggling in one area, it will affect the other areas as well. For example, if you aren't doing work that fulfills you, your relationship may suffer. Similarly, if you aren't physically strong, your mental health may suffer.
Every year I strive to grow and improve myself in different ways. I want to share with you a sneak peek of some of my 2018 highlights that made this a year to remember.
Body
When I was diagnosed with heavy metal toxicity in 2017, I was shocked. However, I took this news as a challenge to heal my body and master my health in 2018. When bad things happen in life, don't put your head in the sand. Rather, find ways to transform hardships into opportunities for growth.
This year I made it a priority to biohack my health so that I could continue operating at a peak level of performance. In early April, Tatiana and I went to Venice, California where we had the opportunity to meet Garry and Anela Lineham, who are the co-founders of Human Garage. This power couple has pioneered a holistic approach to bodywork that heals the body and brain from the inside out.
While we were there, we got to experience their treatment first hand. They developed a personalized protocol for me that consisted of a full body alignment session, movement rehab, and nutrition optimization. The results of their tests have empowered me to continue hacking my health habits so that I can maximize my well-being.
Social/Fun
At the beginning of June, Tatiana and I sold all of our things in Canada and moved to Panama to start a new chapter in our lives. Both of us have always wanted to live in a foreign country so we decided to take the plunge. We will make Panama our home base for the next few years until we find our dream home and move to the U.S.
Shortly after we got settled in our new home, my friends at Bitcoin.com graciously invited me on a cruise throughout the Mediterranean. As part of the Bitcoin conference, Tatiana and I had the opportunity to learn from 100+ Bitcoin speakers while enjoying some epic ocean views. While I was on the cruise, I got to interview Roger Ver, who is the CEO of Bitcoin.com.
After the cruise, Tatiana and I spent 3 months traveling throughout Spain, Italy, Greece, and Singapore. This is one of the many upsides of having an online business and living the laptop lifestyle. You have the freedom to live where you want while doing work that you love.
Relationships
Proposing to Tatiana in Santorini, Greece was, by far, the highlight of 2018. This was one of the best decisions I've ever made. It was a fairytale proposal, set in one of the most romantic places in the world. I spent weeks preparing and planning for the big day.
From the moment that I laid eyes on Tatiana I knew that she was the woman who I wanted to spend my life with. However, before I could find her, I had to do the work to be the man that she was looking for. When we met we were both very clear about what our core values were. Luckily, Tatiana and I had a similar vision for the life that we wanted to create, ensuring that we were moving together in the same direction.
This year Tatiana and I collaborated on a lot of great content together, which allowed us to grow as a couple and take our businesses to the next level. There's no better feeling than being able to grow, travel, and work, side by side with the love of your life. I'm a lucky man to have such a beautiful woman in my life. We are both super excited about our future together and all of the amazing things that we plan on creating in 2019.
Business
I'm always looking for ways to connect with other like-minded people in my industry. This is why I jumped at the chance to attend the SellerCon event in Florida. At the event, I networked with thousands of other Amazon Sellers. Even better, I got the opportunity to interview almost every speaker, some of whom included Rob Burns, Cherie Yvette, and Jeff Cohen. Their Amazon success stories were so inspiring, proving that financial freedom is possible if you are willing to believe in yourself and put in the hard work.
I was also able to collaborate with a lot of people whose work and philosophy of life I admire. Some of these people have been mentors of mine since I was in my early 20's. This year I got the opportunity to interview successful online influencers, like Dan Lok, Gary Ryan Blair, Mike Rashid, Anik Singal, and Eben Pagan.
I always make it a priority to connect with content creators that align with my vision and values. By sharing one another's work, we have been able to inspire and support one another's personal and professional growth. More importantly, some of these partnerships have transformed into long-lasting friendships.
It's been really exciting to see the Project Life Mastery YouTube channel grow so quickly. What started out as a hobby has transformed into my life's greatest work. Knowing that my content has impacted so many peoples' lives is beyond humbling. I hope that my videos continue to inspire and motivate you to become the best version of yourself. I'm looking forward to creating more motivational content in 2019 that inspires you to take action and create life, on your terms.
Thank you for being a part of the best of Project Life Mastery in 2018.
Now, take a moment and reflect upon your year. In what ways did you grow? What lessons did you learn? If you don't feel like you've been living your life to the fullest, now is the time to change that. You are the only one that is responsible for your life. The moment that you embody this truth is the moment at which you become fully free to create the life of your dreams.
You have two choices in life. You can either be an example of what is possible or you can be a warning of who not to be. At the end of the day, success is a mindset. Once you learn, study and master the principles of success, anything is possible. If you can push yourself past the limits of your life, there will be no end to what you can achieve.
As someone once said, “Life isn't about waiting for the storms to pass. It's learning to dance in the rain. I believe in you. The Universe believes in you. Now it's time to believe in yourself.
What do you want to accomplish in the New Year? Make 2019 your year to shine.
