I'm looking to empty the tank before my time here is done. Leave nothing to chance, keep faith in God, and keep pushing the boundaries.

20 years… blood, sweat, and tears poured into this sport. From fighting in civic centers and gymnasiums, to packed arenas… to coaching multiple world champions, earning awards, and mentoring the next generation of coaches. But truthfully I was just following my purpose. The accolades mean a lot, and I’m grateful for every one of them… but that was never the reason. I did this for the love of the game. To push the limits. To work. To build. To maximize the talent God gave me. This journey shaped me in ways words can’t fully express. To be inducted into the Florida MMA Hall of Fame is an incredible honor and a humbling one. Thank you to everyone who’s supported me along the way. This chapter closes… and a new one begins. God bless ✝️

St. Thomas Aquinas reminds us that “we most imitate God when we help others.” In this season of Lent, let us practice true love to will the good of others through concrete acts of charity, sacrifice, and service. By loving rightly, we are drawn closer to the First Cause, conforming our will to His and allowing grace to shape our lives. May our fasting, prayer, and almsgiving not be performative, but transformative. ✝️

Thank you to my brother @darustrong for getting me on the Rucking game! 💪🏽 Rucking—walking with a weighted vest—is a simple, low-impact exercise that offers a combination of cardiovascular and strength-training benefits. Rucking elevates your heart and breathing rates more than regular walking, strengthening your heart and lungs and boosting aerobic fitness. It’s an excellent form of Zone 2 training, which is ideal for maximizing fat oxidation. Carrying a load engages multiple muscle groups, including your legs (quads, hamstrings, glutes, calves), core, back, and shoulders. This builds muscular endurance and functional strength applicable to everyday tasks like carrying groceries or hiking with gear. As a weight-bearing exercise, rucking can help maintain and even increase bone density over time, which is important for preventing conditions like osteoporosis. #Rucking #Fitness #Muscles #SamTejada #Liquivida

Have focused intent followed by directed action. Foundational identity precedes acquired skills. With skills you create opportunities, once the opportunity arises prove yourself with the result.

Leaders must first read the temperature of the room before acting on a desired outcome. Without proper context and understanding, the wisest choice is to pause and make a clear, simple judgment. Reaction clouds discernment. Organization of thought creates precision. From precision comes the right action. If you want a slightly more philosophical / doctrine-style version: A leader does not rush to act. He first measures the environment. Context informs judgment. Judgment precedes action. Discipline in thought produces clarity in outcome. Or a more modern, executive tone for LinkedIn or a keynote slide: Read the room before you move the room. Context before action. Clarity before force.
