Master of One
This is the Master of One Podcast. This is my journey to master myself through different endeavors and books. Each episode I read a book and go through all the major lessons I learned from the book. The second half of the podcast I go through the lessons and interesting observances I learned since the last podcast. I love writing lessons down! By the next podcast/book I have so many lessons I've learned and want to share, enjoy!

Master of None #035 - East Atlanta Chess Championship 2
Whats up guys? In this episode I break down the East Atlanta Chess Championship 2. It was a great tournament, a lot of things to work on, but definitely a lot of growth and success from the last one. After that I break down what's happening in the other major areas of my life. I recently finished reading the book Grit:The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth. I 1000% recommend it!
