My name is Carlos, I'm a grad student studying publishing and an aspiring author, almost 100k into my first draft. I also weightlift and practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Thought the first two I listed are my top priorities, I thoroughly enjoy the latter two and would like to see how far I can push myself in them. I started listening to the podcast in mid 2018, when I was on a competitive swim team, and came back to it last year. Though I didn't listen for years, the episodes that always stuck with me came from the "Mindsets of the Weak" series. I remember quoting one of the lines in an end of the season speech that everyone loved, and though I didn't lead by example, I still remember that eating ice instead of a seal is not an option. Glad to be a part of the group!
