Zero To Alpha goes to Thailand: 9 days out.

By Alex | Motivation | No Comments

Did you know that I’m going to Thailand in 9 days?! You might be pretty bored by this statement but hear me out before you leave. I quit my job and booked a one-way ticket, I’ll be gone for at least 74 days but I might stay a little longer. Things suddenly got a lot more interesting didn’t they?! I mean this isn’t your “I’m going on a trip and come back in a week” this is the “I’m taking faith into my own hands and want to make something happen”. People call me crazy but I’m ok with that. I’ve been plotting and planning this move for a little more than 2 years. You could kind of say that I expected this to happen.

Online dating: waste of time or worth a dime?

By Alex | Motivation | 2 Comments

Today we’re going to cover online dating. The reason why is pretty damn simple, most people feel lonely during the holidays because everybody is taken according to them and they’ll never find love (boohoohoo). They repeat this kind of behavior once valentine’s day arrives. How can you even be lonely? You’re in some really bad company if you’re lonely all the time! Maybe it’s time for some introspection? You’ll do some introspection anyways if you reach the end of this blog because I let the Alpha out of his cage and he’s about to rage. Will I offend people? Probably. Do I care? Probably not, it’s all about mastering the art of not giving a fuck.

In the past, I’ve used multiple dating apps (Tinder, Bumble, Twoo, Happen). I think that’s about it. Most got deleted almost instantly again. But I used Tinder a couple of times over the years. Read More

Have you ever faced a loss in life? You probably did, didn't you?! But have you ever opened up about it? That's a whole different story, isn't it?! So this weekend I entered a BJJ tournament here in Belgium. I was really looking forward to it and I enjoyed the fact that I was finally going to compete again.

There are tons of corny quotes about the fact that you should have low or zero expectations in life. It's like a dumb hype train that somehow got momentum.

=The beauty of high expectations.

By Alex | Motivation | No Comments

There are tons of corny quotes about the fact that you should have low or zero expectations in life. It’s like a dumb hype train that somehow got momentum and now it’s taken over the world. At first, I didn’t get it but now I do. Recently somebody contacted me and showed me a print screen of a PowerPoint of a university course. It was about setting low expectations. I couldn’t believe it when I read it. I couldn’t read this kind of nonsense although the intention was right.

Man, I was so glad that I dropped out of college, they taught us stuff like that as well. Setting low expectations might not hurt you in the short run, I mean how could it, you expect nothing but it’ll hurt you big time in the long run. This is a classic example of short-term gratification that leads to long-term frustration. You avoid the pain in the short-run (this is what you believe) but you’ll face the pain twice as hard in the long run. So we’re going to challenge your beliefs here! Something that you might have avoided for a long time now. Read More
