“Don’t explain your philosophy. Embody it.”
Epictetus

Hello there Reader,
How have you been my friend?
Things look a little bit different around here now that I…
- got clear on my vision
- built something very cool
- learned some things about branding
and still, much more growth and progress to come.
At the end of the day, that is what this life is about.
Growth and Progress.

“Progressive improvement beats delayed perfection.”
Mark Twain
|
Without a focus on improvement, you get caught in complacency or perfectionism.
Neither one equals you making progress, or feeling any better about yourself… or your life.
Both ultimately hold you back from doing the thing you actually wanted to do in the first place.
Make Progress & Grow as a Person.
Get better, feel better, and overall enjoy the hell outta your incredible life’s journey unfolding.
However, it isn’t about “success” or filling some void.
I don’t think my life (or yours) is meant to be a constant grind.
I also don’t think I am meant to renounce everything like a monk.
It’s meant to be holistic. “Encompassing the whole of a thing, and not just the part”
Why? Because life has many layers, as do you as a human being.
Mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, relational, etc.
I want to improve across the board, and have a full life.
Be a person that is happy, free, capable, confident. “a bad ass”.
A life with meaning, freedom, and a constant sense of “this kicks ass”.
Do you?
I’m not alone in this…
Arnold Schwarzenegger shared the powerful philosophy I am going to share with you today:

“For me life is continuously being hungry. The meaning of life is not simply to exist, to survive, but to move ahead, to go up, to achieve, to conquer.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

THE Philosophy
The philosophy I speak of was coined by the Japanese originally.
Here is the best definition I have found.
Originally a business philosophy, now a philosophy, and core value of mine and many others.
|
|
|
“Practice the philosophy of continuous improvement. Get a little bit better every single day.”
Brian Tracy
|
This philosophy allowed me to:
- overcome many odds in my life: death of family, addictions, trauma, etc
- achieve some pretty awesome things: earn $1m dollars, get jacked, help others, etc
Pretty cool, huh?
With that out of the way, I am proud to announce a few very special things:
Announcements!
The Kaizen Life Community
“A community of Growth-Focused, Heart-Centered, and Free-Thinking Self-Improvers.”
To many people are being “lone wolves” in their lives.
The thing about the lone wolf?
It starves, and dies alone.
Humans need each other, and Men & Women nowadays are suffering in silence…
That doesn’t have to be you.
Meet your tribe, become the best version of yourself, and together, let’s build our dream lives.
My current mission is growing this community to 100+ Men AND Women.
Through this I can:
- bring together like minded people.
- provide personalized support.
- host community exclusive events.
- create a bank of resources like courses, and tools for our people.
If you want to surround yourself with people committed to getting better, transforming their lives, and being genuinely bad ass good people… let’s connect, and I’ll get you a seat at the table.
The vision is to have a thriving, connected, and supportive tribe.
A big family all growing, helping others, kicking ass, and taking names together in the world.

My Newsletter (s)
To bring as much value as possible, and to make room for my creativity:
I am creating two weekly newsletters!
The goal?
Keep each a uniquely valuable experience for my readers, and be an easy 8-10 minutes or less read time.
On Saturday:
Welcome to Kaizen Culture, your weekly newsletter where I deliver valuable tips, tools, and guidance to help you create freedom, abundance, and positive change in your life.
Join us every Saturday morning for holistic cheat codes that will accelerate your improvement both personally and professionally.
On Thursday:
Tune into Raw Thoughts w/ Riley – where I’ll share unfiltered personal reflections, and insights on my journey to self and life mastery.
Join us every Thursday as we explore bold ideas, lessons, and perspectives designed to spark your curiosity, confidence, and creativity.
TBD:
Considering doing a monthly newsletter called “Living in Abundance”.
This would be more of a lifestyle guide. Sharing monthly challenges, adventurous experiences, and practical resources for living a life of abundance. If this is something you’d like to see, let me know!
My New Direction
I wanted to share behind the scenes as I learn how to build an online business and personal brand.
Part of my passion for anything I do, is the opportunity to pay it forwards to others to short cut their progress.
I have learned a lot recently.
Because of that have gotten clear on my direction for my online business and brand, at least for now.
The three “pillars” of my online business and brand:
Income Freedom – sharing my knowledge on how to create income freedom.
Breaking limitations on how, or where we earn, save, and invest our money to create financial freedom.
Do something you love for a living, double your earning potential, and choose when you work.
Lifestyle Design – sharing my knowledge on designing an authentic, purposeful, fun, and healthy lifestyle.
Building a life that makes you say “hell yeah” everyday.
Live a life being someone you admire, doing what you want, how you want, with who you want.
Self Mastery – sharing my knowledge on holistic self mastery.
Mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual mastery.
Becoming the best version of ourselves in a well rounded, and balanced fashion.
This allows me to share my expertise in the areas I am most passionate about.
All while giving my audience (you) something more tangible to grab onto.
I chose these 3 Pillars because they allow for exploration of many sub-topics… and allow for a focused, and purposeful approach to each.
What this is all about:
Free yourself financially, live a life of your dreams, become the best version of yourself. Live the philosophy of KAIZEN… Continuous Improvement.
Also geeky side note, check out my new brand colors.
Current projects I am working on:
- Creating new content.
- Finishing my new website.
- Planning in person & online events.
- Implementing systems for my businesses.
- Building resources, and courses for my community.
More updates to come.
