How it all started
My interests in psychology and self-development began somewhere around 7th grade in school. My experience there was not that great. I wasn’t very outgoing or popular, even though I always dreamed of being so. I was also socially anxious and had low self-esteem. I wanted to fix all of that and become a “giant”, capable of doing everything I set my mind to. I wanted to be the main character in my life that does whatever the f**k he wants. Without worrying what somewhat might think.
From this early age, I got determined to understand why some of the kids were so good in social settings, while others, like me, acted awkward and experienced anxiety. What were the hidden forces behind social dynamics. Why some of the people I met were breezing though life, succeeding at everything they do, while others’ every day seemed like a hopeless struggle.
Thanks to my burning desire to figure everything out and be one of the strong, successful guys and thanks to some hidden force that steered me in the right direction, I discovered the power of books. This, combined with a lot of action and obstacles that life threw in my way, made me find solutions to a lot of the problems I had. But it also developed an appetite in me. The appetite for helping others and not letting them go through the same suffering I had to go through.
