Dream Vitality Is Nearly Here, Are You Ready?

Dream Vitality Is Nearly Here, Are You Ready?

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 01. Aug, 2010 in Exercise, Lifestyle Design, Nutrition

Compliments of Dj Fuji

To my pleasant surprise there has been a lot of interest in the Dream Vitality CYL program. Considering the massive comment history on TDL with regards to exercise and nutrition posts, I suppose this shouldn’t be a surprise, but no biggie. I always welcome comments and suggestions, and indeed there has been a ton.

Which is pretty exciting. I really had no idea how you guys would respond to me offering a 12 week phone and e-mail coaching program, but here we are, only days away from it beginning.

So what does Dream Vitality come down to exactly?

It boils down to this – I have spent an enormous amount of time and effort researching exercise, nutrition, and healthy living over the past few years.

While my research pales in comparsion to people like Doug McGuff, Mark Sisson, Kurt Harris, Drew Baye, and so on, I feel that I have learned an immense amount, and really dug through a lot of outright nonsense in industries neck…

A Young Floridian’s Declaration of Independence

A Young Floridian’s Declaration of Independence

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 12. Jul, 2010 in Independent Thinking, Lifestyle Design, Wealth

On the fourth of July 2010 I spent my night writing a post for this blog.

Why did I not spend my time consuming alcohol, watching fireworks explode, and wishing “America” a “happy birthday” along with many of my peers?

The answer to this question is complex, so complex in fact, that I have chosen to weave the core of that night’s blog post into an answer for this question.

The title of that post being “I Carry a Gun: Here’s How and Why”.

The core?

Well at first it was only a technical post about carrying a firearm (concealed), and self defense. As my writing efforts carried on, the research to support my ideas rapidly expanded – coincidentally parallel with the increasing amount of fireworks blasting off outside as the night wore on.

Long story short, I finished the majority of the post that night, but not all of it.

Why?

I had a deep sense that there was a lot more to this post than “guns” and self defense, and I knew better than to…

The Dream Tour & Updates from Europe + T21C News

The Dream Tour & Updates from Europe + T21C News

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 27. May, 2010 in Convention, Lifestyle Design, Meeting Cool People

So I’m sitting here at a Jazz cafe in Gothenburg Sweden, sucking down coffee and heavy cream (high quality I might add) like a vampire – and it’s 11 at night.

Why the late coffee?

Well, that opens up a whole nest of ideas and things to talk about – which is fine, more than fine actually.

Why?

Because sitting here in this Jazz cafe trying to relax from a long, long days work, makes me want to write, and reminds me that I have an audience on TDL that has taken a lot of time out of their lives to follow what I do and ramble about from time to time =).

In that sense, I hereby declare this post to be non work related, and only fun related. ‘Fun’ because if I did consider it ‘work’ – even work I truly love – I’d probably rip the hair out of my head right now. Sometimes we have to restrain ourselves even from the things we love and are truly dedicated…

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Bijal

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Bijal

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 23. May, 2010 in Convention, Interviews, Lifestyle Design

You’ve seen the speakers interviewed in The Community Tapes, and you’ve heard what they have to say about The 21 Convention, but what about hearing from an attendee?

Our question exactly, and Bijal fits the bill perfectly in this regard. Bijal is a three year attendee of The 21 Convention, and has seen it grow and evolve over the years like few have – as well as me personally throughout our friendship that spawned from The 21 Convention.

Get behind the scenes of The 21 Convention in this episode of The Community Tapes and be sure to register for the 2010 Orlando convention before June 9th for a $50 discount off the door price. (Ticket prices also rise June 9th for the Central Florida Exercise & Nutrition Seminar).

Video Presentation: How I Began My Personal Journey & How You Can Begin Yours

Video Presentation: How I Began My Personal Journey & How You Can Begin Yours

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 21. May, 2010 in Convention, Independent Thinking, Lifestyle Design

This is a free talk I did in Stockholm for a little over 20 people on Wednesday right after my friend and fellow convention speaker Dejan. I talk about my history with women, how I began my “personal journey”, some realizations I have had along the way thus far, and how you can begin yours.

All in all an informal talk I think most will enjoy, despite a fair bit of profanity (you’ve been warned!), and a side of myself many TDL readers are probably not so familar with – until now =).

Cheers guys.

-Anthony

ps- there’s about a minute of footage missing in the middle where I talk about losing my butt financially with the 2008 convention and then my best friend dieing immediately after that. Unfortunately I simply don’t have the footage, but another person does, so I may swap the videos out in the near future if I can get a hold of a copy.

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Tim the “Right Hand Man”

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Tim the “Right Hand Man”

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 09. May, 2010 in Convention, Independent Thinking, Interviews, Lifestyle Design

Tim the “Right Hand Man”: in his own words a “father, son, brother, former husband, and sometimes a lover”. We should probably add to that: mentor, leader, and one of the wisest men interviewed to date for The Community Tapes. Tim aka “Right Hand Man” brings an entirely new twist  to this documentary series with his age, ideas, and experiences that other dating and relationship coaches, simply haven’t had.

Tim was interviewed on the infamous “Wall Street” of downtown Orlando Florida in the Spring of 2010. Find out more about him at his blog, RightHandManifesto.blogspot.com, and see his speech at T21C 2009 here. Tim will also be speaking for his third year at The 21 Convention during our Orlando event this July 22nd-25th.

My comments: Tim just totally crushes it in this interview. By far and large, I believe this one of the most professional interviews out of the entire first volume, and will catch a lot of people by surprise Dj Fuji 2009 style, simply because Tim has an awesome message to send,…

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Steve “El Topo” Mayeda

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Steve “El Topo” Mayeda

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 02. May, 2010 in Convention, Independent Thinking, Interviews, Lifestyle Design

Steve “El Topo” Mayeda: the most down to Earth, honest, genuine, no BS lifestyle and dating coach, on the planet – period. Known for his revolutionary “Red Stack” coaching program and unparalleled personal attention, Steve was interviewed for The Community Tapes during the late Fall of 2009 in downtown Orlando Florida.

See Steve’s presentation at The 21 Convention 2009 here. Find out more about him at his website TheRedMole.com, and view further discussion of Episode 2 of The Community Tapes [Volume 1] here.

My Comments: Steve is a real bad ass, and this documentary style interview proves it beyond the shadow of a doubt. While a little long winded at first, I believe this is by far the most raw and powerful interview of the entire series. Really, Steve says things that just knock your socks off – especially about me – and for that, I thank him. He’s actually helped me realize a lot in my life, and I think you see that reflected recently on TDL, and will continue to see such reflection.

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Dj Fuji

The Community Tapes [Volume 1]: Dj Fuji

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 25. Apr, 2010 in Convention, Independent Thinking, Interviews, Lifestyle Design

Dj Fuji … life coach, ex-marine, rising star of The 21 Convention, and former chief instructor for Mehow Inc. – was interviewed for The Community Tapes during the Fall of 2009 in Orlando Florida. Move past the fame and inside the mind of one of the greatest dating and lifestyle coaches of our time, Dj Fuji, with the ground breaking new lens that is Episode 1, Volume 1 of The Community Tapes.

See Dj Fuji’s outrageously popular speech at T21C 2009 by clicking here.

Visit his blog at TaoofDjFuji.com and see him this July at T21C 2010 (USA).

My comments: Dj Fuji is an awesome guy – seriously. I got a great first impression when I met him in July of 2009 at T21C, and my respect only grew after he gave his ~2 hour presentation (that inevitably blew up online). All that was further compounded (and amplified) during this interview, that really helped me get to know the man behind the name. I believe it will help others in the same regard. Enjoy guys, and stay tuned next Sunday afternoon for Episode 2 of…

The Dream Book Collection

by Anthony 'Dream' Johnson on 01. Apr, 2010 in Lifestyle Design, Miscellaneous, Reviews

Someone tweeted at me the other day stating interest in what was on my bookshelf (reader Ben of this blog I believe). I thought about it and decided it would make for an interesting post.

What you see above is my personal and current book collection* . I’ve owned and read many more in my life time of course, but I frequently sell books that I won’t read twice, and would be better off in the hands of someone else (hence you don’t see The Primal Blueprint hard cover in here, for one example).

*With a shameless self promotional piece in the back ground of master copy event DVD’s to be delivered this week to the production/distribution company I have chosen. Check out one of the full DVD covers here (it’s pretty slick).

Below I’ll briefly discuss each book, and provide a link to purchase it. Most will be to Amazon, in which case I get a small commission (usually…
