There’s a lot of distractions in life, there’s a lot of stressors, a lot of reasons not to, these days. The Forge and WayMaker Community is a tool that pushes you and enables you to get after your goals. It is for the person who wants to be more in all pillars of life. It’s not just some accountability workout checklist, it is a mindset and outlet of productivity to be better, even if is just 1% better for that day. It’s the consistency needed to grow and live a life you’re proud of with a group of people who are are all on the same glide path and also feel life’s struggles and obstacles put in the way to success.
I am here because I want/need to be a man worth the love, dedication and commitment of my wife and all that she brings to my family and the man my kids deserve to raise them and be the example of how to win at life; I can be the living proof that when you set your mind to something, create a plan to achieve those objectives and then most importantly execute that plan, that all that life can bring is within reach if you stay dedicated to the grind and endure through all. Knowing that the pain of the grind today only weighs ounces yet the pain of regret weighs tons. Set goals and go get them its that easy. The mentality of why not me is built from hard work, and the Forge is a tool that helps develop that mindset and is a resource to tap into with an enormous band of background and knowledge to reach the summit of whatever mountain you’re climbing.
I'm not a warrior by trade, but the warrior spirit roars within me. Before The Forge, it was rare to share that energy with someone who truly understood. Being uncommon is, by its nature, uncommon. In this sense, standing out is a powerful sign that you've stepped over the corpses of those who lacked the will to press on. The higher you climb, the lonelier it becomes. But with The Forge, I've exchanged the solitude of climbing alone for the strength and inspiration of climbing with my brothers. I don't admire many people, but I admire the men in The Forge.
Excommunication. I must pay to play. No entitlement. No exceptions. No excuses. Contribute daily or get out. It’s a simple yet beautiful ethos. I love that my Forge is so hardened that excommunication is seen as an opportunity for growth. It means someone is about to embark on the journey to earn their way back in, if they choose to. I love seeing the raw emotion and deep reflection that reveals itself in the discomfort of physical challenge. I also love being the one fighting to re-earn his seat at the table. Individuals can vote HELL NO if they sense entitlement or a half-hearted effort, and that’s fantastic. Nothing is guaranteed, not even with great effort. We've witnessed some extraordinary re-entries.
Why would I choose to step away from daily interactions with my mentors? There's simply too much wisdom and rocket fuel here to leave behind. My hope is that I can offer value to others in return. It's a cycle of shared elevation.
They say you shouldn’t be the best person in the room—you should surround yourself with people who push you to grow. That’s exactly what I’ve found here. This community is packed with high-performing individuals who constantly challenge me to level up. I’ve learned a ton from the people here, and I hope I can offer something valuable in return.
Daily contribution—no exceptions, no excuses, or you face the consequences. The accountability here is unmatched, and there’s a kind of purposeful suffering when you fall short. I respect that. It keeps me sharp and reminds me of the importance of consistency and discipline.
This community is a constant reminder to pursue my own betterment. I see my commitment here as a way to not only push myself but to set an example for others. If I can influence even one person to take their commitment to improvement seriously, then it’s worth it.
Honestly? I’m a bit of a glutton for punishment. But in all seriousness, I’ve been part of a lot of communities since leaving the military. Most of them served their purpose for a season, and then I moved on. This one is different. It’s not just relevant for where I’m at now—it’s applicable to the rest of my life. This community holds me accountable and keeps me from slacking, and for that, I’m grateful.
This community is full of those who have chosen to answer the call to live an intentional and meaningful life. Those who refusing to accept living in mediocrity and stumbling through life asleep. I’ve gained insights and strength from this group, and my goal is to continue to answer the call and grow alongside these powerful men who cant accept life any other way.
The Forge demands fuel. It’s not just a place to talk about how to improve it’s a place to prove your improving. Self accountability is required as no one will hold your hand, yet if support is needed everyone here is willing to show up. It's also a source of strength to watch others going through difficult time still decide to show up for themselves.
The Forge isn't just a group to me. As someone who is overweight, in debt, alone, and in a career I don't get meaning from, I get to aspire towards making my life have value. I get to see amazing men who are leagues beyond my current capabilities fight for their own purposes. It gives me strength to continue when it would be so easy to just give in. It forces me to look into the mirror and evaluate if im moving in the right direction or if I am just coasting. Admittingly some days I don't have much growth, but I know I didn't take a step back or give up and that's huge for someone who is new on a journey like this and is fighting to become somebody else and refuses go back to how they used to live.
