Building the life I want by @ericlim17

Friend of the Week Episode Three is with Aashish Balani (@aashishbbalani).

Aashish grew up playing soccer and never lost the need for competition and team energy. He started posting gym edits just for fun while his friends gave him a hard time about it, and kept going anyway.

Now he is building Forge Endurance (@forgendurance), an app that connects endurance athletes to train together in the city.

The people who build things are the ones who started before anyone took them seriously.

The build. by @ericlim17

The discipline you build in the gym solves problems far beyond physical fitness. You teach yourself to execute when you have every reason to quit.

Building a career from scratch demands the exact same mental engine. The work requires quiet repetitions without immediate applause.

Physical strain proves that discomfort passes while standards remain. When you hold the line during early training sessions, you carry that focus into your business.

Apply your physical standard to every professional decision.

Confidence requires an undeniable record of kept promises. You build self trust through daily execution.

Every finished workout and early morning creates physical proof of your discipline. Your mind tracks every standard you uphold.

Rely on your completed work instead of emotional motivation.

Stack the evidence daily.

Overdress for Every Occasion.

You never know who you will run into the second you step outside in New York City.

Dressing well is a big part of feeling good right alongside working out. Taking care of how you look physically sets the tone for everything else.

Carry yourself with intention.

Making friends in New York City is easy when you put yourself out there.

Friend of the Week Episode Two is with Andre Santos (@andre______0).

We connected on TikTok seven months ago while he was still in university. When he moved to the city, we hit Central Park for a long run during his first week.

Now he is out here running Thrillsoul, clearing his head on morning runs, and building his own opportunities through social media.

One video can change your trajectory overnight.

Pick up the camera and start posting.

Confidence is not a personality trait you are born with. It is a skill you build through daily proof.

I am starting a new series called How to Be Confident.

Most people struggle with confidence right now because of isolation and constant comparison online.

True confidence comes down to three pillars: self-talk, dressing well, and working out.

When you control your internal dialogue, take pride in your appearance, and build physical capacity, external validation stops mattering.

Build your foundation from the inside out.

You do not need an expensive wardrobe to look sharp in the city. Full fit is head to toe @uniqlousa. by @ericlim17

Making friends in your late 20s feels impossible for most people. Posting online is the biggest cheat code nobody talks about.

I am starting a new series called Friend of the Week. I am going on runs with people I met on social media to show how simple it is to build a real community when you are not afraid to put yourself out there.

First up is Joe Petro (@joepetroo / @joepetro__). We met in my TikTok comments a year ago, bonded over running, and he ended up introducing me to the new job I started this week.

Stop overthinking your content and just start posting. The internet is a lot smaller than you think. by @ericlim17

This was a difficult decision for me. I felt like I worked my entire life to get my “dream job.”

I followed the steps that were put in front of me. Get good grades to get into a top college. Study finance to get a job on Wall Street.

I got the job, did the thing, and I felt there is more to life than just that.

I’m still figuring out exactly what life has for me and what path I want to go on but I know it will work out. by @ericlim17
