At 31 my net worth was 100k.
I traded TIME for money working a job I didn't like.

At 41 my net worth is 2.2 million.
I'm financially free.

•I'm not a genius.
•I don't play the lottery.
•I didn't inherit any wealth.

Here’s the steps I took (AND YOU CAN REPLICATE) to create wealth & freedom: 1) MARRY the right spouse.

I suppose you could just marry someone worth 50 million, but I don’t mean that :)

My wife had around the same net worth when we met.

I had made 20x more than her as a poker pro tho.

She’s frugal.
She sees longterm.

She helped me a ton in this area.

Six years ago my family cancelled:

•Hulu
•Netflix
•HBO GO
•Cable TV
•Deleted all “news” apps

We unplugged from what SOCIETY told us was important & focused ONLY on what we knew was important.

•Faith
•Family
•Fitness
•Finances
•Friendships

Here’s the results: 1) Our family saved $130/month by canceling these services.

Six years ago we got paid TWO ways each month:

•My salary
•Wife’s salary

Last month we got paid 13 different ways!!!

With the extra time & endless resources available to us (Twitter, YouTube, mentors) we learned!!

I agree with most of what Lila says.

I respect her a lot.

I could not DISAGREE with this take anymore though.

(Notice adults can disagree & still show respect).

I believe the enemy loves SEXLESS marriages just as much as SEX OUTSIDE of marriages.

She's WRONG (Trump voice) & here's why:
🧵 👇 It's become very popular amongst non-Christian circles to DEMONIZE MASCULINITY.

It seems this has crept into Christian circles too.

By telling a healthy married TESTOSTERONE FILLED man JUST ACCEPT NOT HAVING SEX you are 100% setting him up for failure.

I'm just going to say ask ANY HEALTHY MAN if he desires frequent,
fun, energetic sex with his wife over ANYTHING ELSE in the relationship & he's LYING if he says no.

Married women show him this tweet & ask him!!

You'll see!

I was 11 & my father sat me down & told me a story that changed my life.

He said when he was 14 he was small in stature, but was friends with everyone.

Freshman year he saw a couple seniors picking on a defenseless kid.

He told them to stop.

They laughed at him.

And Then.... He walked up to one in the gym locker room tapped one on the shoulder & as he turned around punched him square in the face.

They fought a few minutes & my dad admitted he got the worst of it.

But as they were getting pulled away the senior says,

"YOU ARE A PSYCHO!"

My dad says,

"Yes I am!!! And understand if I ever see you picking on anyone again, I'll do this everyday so be prepared & decide if it's worth a fight!"

When my wife whispers,

"Hurry reading the kids books & meet me in bed, I'll be waiting in my birthday suit!"

I feel 10 feet tall :)

If a guy routinely advances on his wife & she:
•treats it like a chore.
•NEVER seems interested.
•Is always too tired or busy.

He WILL get discouraged, look elsewhere, & the marriage is in BIG trouble.

If you're married & NOT HAVING SEX you don't need to wonder if there's a problem...... there is.

*BOOKMARK this thread & let's fix that! MOST men won't cheat physically, but they will mentally with porn & the marriage is still in trouble.

Most wives don't understand how the male brain works.

I see so many guys BLAMING THEIR WIVES for lack of sex.

Fellas, that is what a BOY would do.

Take ownership & do this!

There's nothing worse as a married man than ROUTINELY hearing:

•I'm too tired.
•I'm not in the mood.
•I just want to watch my show.
•There's way too much on my mind.

It's defeating.
It's soul crushing.

It's far too common.

The enemy loves sexless marriages as much as sex before marriage.

Heres how to REKINDLE that flame again & get her initiating as much as you!! I've coached men that tell me a GREAT MONTH is ONE time of intimacy & their wife NEVER initiates.

I've coached hundreds that've said it's been YEARS since they had sex.

If you are married & NOT HAVING FREQUENT SEX you don't need to wonder if there's a problem......

There is.

At 30 my net worth was 100k.
I had ONE stream of income my 9-5.
We were in debt & paid banks monthly.

At 41 my net worth is 2.2 million.
We have a dozen + income streams.
We have zero debt including our home & pay ourselves monthly.

Here’s the steps school won't teach to create wealth & freedom. 1) MARRY the right spouse.

I suppose you could just marry someone worth 50 million, but I don’t mean that :)

My wife had around the same net worth when we met.

Nearly six years ago my family cancelled:

•Family

At 34 I was embarrassed to take my shirt off when swimming with my family.

At 41 I hate ever wearing shirts.

I’ve coached hundreds of clients to lose weight & get healthier.

Here’s 3 things that hold most people back & how you can defeat those things & win! 1) Blame & lack of ownership.

If only my wife wasn’t so nagging…
If only my boss wasn’t so rigid….
If I only had more time….

Look I get it.

Life’s busy.

There will ALWAYS be an excuse.

Your brain will protect your delicate ego by reminding you of them daily.

"Every man lives TWO LIVES & the second starts when he realizes he has just ONE."

I'll never forget this picture as long as I live.

The night before I was SOBBING tears of shame & then rage.

I was failing myself & my family.

Here's a story to inspire someone feeling stuck. I had wasted the entire Sunday on the couch eating pizza & chips.

My wife invited me outside to play with her & my daughter a few times but I was DETERMINED TO BE MISERABLE & play the VICTIM.

"I worked 6 days this week at a job I don't even like.....

I deserve ONE to lay around....."

I snapped at her wanting to make EVERYONE AROUND ME MISERABLE TOO.

I don’t understand a lot of single Christian men.

They SAY they want a great Godly wife, but their actions don't align with ATTRACTING one.

Here’s what single Christian men should do to ATTRACT a Godly wife:

1) STOP following fake "alphas" that aren't married & sleep around. 2) Build yourself daily.

•Body
-Lift -Run -Walk -Stay active & fit

•Mind
-Read -Journal -Meditate -Study

•Soul
-Pray -Bible study - Devotions -Fast

Nothing is MORE attractive than a human FLOURISHING, ON FIRE & GROWING.

Let her see you killing life & she can add to it & you add value to hers.

A while ago I got my dad on BLK SEED OIL.

He was taking 12-13 supplements a day + a lot of allergy med type stuff.

Within DAYS he told me his sinuses & respiratory problems were clearing up!

After a month he swears by it & starts every morning with it like I do! I was looking for something to help with inflammation & stumbled upon BLK SEED OIL 9 months ago.

At 41, I'm careful what I put into my body so I did a ton of research!

After 35-40 days my inflammation had reduced by 95%!

I haven't had a cold or the sniffles in months!!

At 29 I sat on the rooftop of my condo overlooking Chicago thinking if I wasn’t such a pansy I would just jump off & end it.

I was recently cheated on & divorced.

I was drinking 6 days a week & popping pills like they were skittles.

I was around drinking buddies often, but ALWAYS FELT ALONE.

I couldn’t get off the couch for days during some periods.

I felt my best days were behind me & couldn’t see a way out.

It was the lowest depression I’ve ever experienced.

And then……… A couple miracles happened in the form of TWO PEOPLE GOD sent into my life.

One night around midnight at a bar I was introduced to a guy named Kolby.

He was there with a couple mutual friends & we were taking sports.

This guys energy lit up the room.
He was chiseled like a Greek god.

As we spoke, I asked him how he was in such good shape?

"What was the cheat code bro?!"

I'll be 42 soon.

At 34 I was the guy on the left.

Dad bod.
Always tired, a complainer, & low energy.

At 41 I'm in the best shape of my life physically, mentally & spiritually.

It's not GENETICS.
It's LIFESTYLE CHOICES.

Here's the cheat codes: 1) Limit alcohol.

Look I get it booze can be fun.

I don't NOT DRINK EVER.

I DO acknowledge it's a poison tho.
It's awful for my body so I set RULES.

•Put a water between each drink.
•Pre set a limit on number of drinks.
•6-10 times a year I'll have 3-5 drinks.

Works for me, find what works for you!

In the last 8 months I've seen my inflammation go from bothering me a lot to being nonexistent!

I've even noticed my sinuses & respiratory system feeling more open & healthier.

The difference:

I started taking Organic BLK seed oil 9 months ago. I was researching natural ways to cure inflammation & came across it.

It was cheap so after reading a bunch on it I purchased it.

Within 35-40 days the inflammation that was waking me up at night had reduced by 95%!!

That was the tip of the iceberg tho.

I recall asking my parents what they would do if I got into a fight & killed someone on accident.

My MOM spoke up first,

We would love you, help you, pray with you, & fight with you. We love you always Ty.

My DAD looked me in the eye & I'll never forget what he said next. ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES SON.

I would drive you to the police station myself.

I would never stop loving you, but you would face the consequences.

I remember being like c'mon dad what if this or what if that.....

He held firm.

Every choice you make in life has consequences.

The SECOND most attractive girl I dated (behind my wife) was 23 & a cheerleader at a big PAC 12 school.

She turned heads for sure.

I was 29 & we went on 3 dates.

The first two were fun & we vibed well.

The third I picked her up & she told me she just got a $1,200 haircut (mine are $15 & I think that's outrageous:). 🚩

She was then very rude to our waitress & complained a few times about the service. 🚩

I pictured my future of "EXPENSIVE & COMPLAINING" & told her after dinner as politely as I could I wasn't interested & there wouldn't be a date 4.

I have never seen anything like it!!!

I think most 9's & up NEVER get rejected & take for granted every guy will pursue them.

She messaged me for weeks.

I got engaged a year later, hadn't thought of her since, & she wrote me this long letter on SM.

I took a couple things away from it I think all men can learn from: 1) NEVER CHASE.

Build yourself, know you are the prize & legit feel sorry for girls that reject you based on status.

If you're in an entry level job but building, DO NOT APOLOGIZE for it or act like you have all this money.

If she likes you, she'll see the long term vision & build with you!

If not, HER LOSS, keep building!

-18: college/partying lost God.

-20: poker, dropped out of college. Focused only on money/stuff.

-24: married.

-27: internet poker banned, went from 250k/year to zero overnight.

-27: divorced, depressed alcohol & pills.

-28 going broke, spent 200k partying. Felt dead inside. -28: Low point. Rock bottom.

Blaming everyone but myself.

Wish I WAS NOT ALIVE most days.

Break down crying in a Doctors office.

She tells me she’s overcome divorce.

Shows me a picture of her children & husband now.

Better days are ahead she reassures me.

Hope is restored.

I made a 4 year old (not my own kid) CRY at church last night......

Here's a controversial parenting move I felt I needed to use.

I walk in (30 kids & 3 volunteers) & (my son) is crying.

I ask what happened & he said this boy ripped up his picture & hit him. My son is 4 & honestly we've had A LOT of talks about HIM not hitting.

He's a beast.
Super aggressive.

So I said, well think of that when you do it to your brother!

Tyson then said he told a teacher but the kid kept hitting several times.

Then, as we're walking out together..

I’m not a minimalist, but I’ve seen the POWER of DECLUTTERING my life.

LESS is often MORE.

Or as Brad Pitt famously said in Fight Club,

“The stuff you own ends up OWNING YOU."

Here’s SIX areas you should DECLUTTER, simplify & better your life for more PEACE.

*BOOKMARK THIS! 1) RELATIONSHIP CLUTTER:

It’s hard but some people YOU ALLOW around you drain you each time you see them.

I call them energy vampires.

Distance yourself from these people.

If they cost you your peace,
Don’t allow it!

•Block off quiet, alone time weekly.

Does your WIFE often feel like your biggest CRITIC?

You deal with PROBLEMS all day at work & then come home & deal with her?

I used to be like this.

I used to blame her for everything.

Then, a few mindset shifts CHANGED our entire marriage!

*BOOKMARK THIS! 1) Take OWNERSHIP of everything

But Ty my wife doesn’t understand as a guy my need to feel respected & built up.

She doesn’t get my need to see friends & have some guy time.

I get it BUT…..

IT IS YOUR FAULT YOU HAVN’T communicated to her how critical these things are to you.
