Thinking a lot about setting up a Bitcoin Citadel (a bitcoiner family office) and wondering about guiding values of Freedom vs Sovereignty vs Autonomy.
Going through The Sovereign Individual and man, did they ever get close but so far away from Bitcoin.
Also, they were defending Osama Bin Laden as a sovereign individual, and they thought Y2K was a massive problem.
I’m only 10% in.
Is this book actually good? Should I bother finishing it?

I have not checked the price of Bitcoin since it crashed down to $50k and I bought some.

This is the new me. Lots of rice. Lots of lean meat. Lots of veggies.
I finished my fat loss phase in April of this year, down from 21% bodyfat in 2023 to 12% bodyfat mid 2024.
In April I hired a fitness coach to help me, and he did something I didn’t expect. At 41 he put me on a whole food diet and told me to cut out salt, protein powders and supplements all together.
I’ve been in the gym 5X a week since April, and my body craves natural foods now and my metabolism is RAMPED.
I’m eating nearly double what I was when I was trying to lose fat, and I’m not gaining fat I’m staying lean.
3300 calories a day and he wants me to get to 4000.
I started adding 1 protein shake a day while I’m in Cape Breton.
Proof of Work.
Don’t let people tell you that you need TRT to get fit at 40. The last pic is Feb 2024 AFTER 1 year of fat loss (this is when I committed to building a Citadel Body) to 2024.
This is my new lifestyle, the discipline and consistency is building to all areas of my life.
By 2025 I’ll be ready to harness the inevitability of Bitcoin and be strong enough to help more people and create the things I want to see in the world.
I hope everyone can find their citadel self. https://image.nostr.build/54584474591a6b8db098a0ac34c4a16181c3221137933ac36fb809ce76b0056e.jpg https://image.nostr.build/879dc7d8b3ce00136ee36b655c595d9b60262c02c285d3329b94ac29ba73c548.jpg https://image.nostr.build/bfdee57e9b7684593dd413e5dad2442c9ce3c9bc1376082fe080a5cd8a38e2e2.jpg

It’s rare to be low body fat, only 1-3% of adults maintain a low body fat %.

6.15 BTC
6.15 pack abs
You are a UNICORN if you achieve this.
Only 0.05% of the population has both a 6 pack and a million dollar net worth.

My superpower is I can see the future.
It’s made me a millionaire multiple times through entrepreneurship (I bootstrapped a game business when Facebook opened up the API back in ~2007/2008), and then later through investing in Bitcoin early.
My superpower also helped me raise 9 figures for nearly 100 businesses over the traders and saved my friends from losing tens of millions of dollars (maybe hundreds?).
I JUST realized today that I haven’t been in control of my powers for my whole life.
Seeing the future can also be a bane.
I was trying to CHANGE the negative future outcomes that I saw coming - but my superpower is SEEING the future not CHANGING the future.
I was constantly trying to correct behaviors & thought patterns, thinking that I could change things to avoid negative future outcomes.
While I have definitely come in at the right time for people in my life and have 100% changed their future, this takes a major toll on me.
Something simple like my daughter going over her screen time by an hour could put me into an anxiety state where I am envisioning the negative consequences of her continued overuse of screens years in the future … causing me to try to prevent a negative future from happening in the present, which usually leads to arguments because normal people don’t think like this.
Worrying is my cryptonite.
I am now going to focus on finding the tools to help me deal with changing the future in a way that doesn’t send me into worry and anxiety over negative future outcomes that don’t exist yet.
Does anyone else have this super power, and have you discovered a way to interface with normies in a way that allows you to have an impact on the future without harming the present?

I just realized that in 2011 I was guided to Bitcoin. It was not a coincidence.
I was in a coachable mode of seeking solution, and I was receptive to it immediately.
I had no doubts or concerns about whether it was legit or whether it would work or if the government would stop it, etc.
I was in the mindset of receiving wealth.
I had previously gone through foundational mindset books like “As A Man Thinketh” and “Think & Grow Rich.”
I was a big fan of “The Secret” and generally enjoyed the law of attraction exercises like figuring out what you want and attracting it to you with vision boards etc.
In 2011 I was going through somewhat of a challenging phase of my financial life where revenue was declining for a year straight and the post GFC world felt like a ponzi scam…I didn’t want to put my meager profits into stocks and real estate so I started learning about the history of money and gold.
I was watching a video about how to import gold and silver ingots into Canada when the guy mentioned that if you like gold & silver you should be looking at digital gold, bitcoin.
Immediate buy in. It was a life changing moment for me, though I didn’t know it then.
I did not deliberate, I plugged the source code straight into my brain.
What I’m saying is - are you closed off to new opportunities, or are you in a receiving state?
For periods of time after I found Bitcoin, I went through periods of being closed off, of having a scarcity mindset, forgetting the foundational lessons of goal setting and focusing on achieving and receiving.
It seems I got a lot of value from being in a receiving state in the past.
There’s a balance point between being in a state of attraction AND the filter of experience and lessons learned where I’m now sitting, perfectly balanced.
What will I be able to accomplish and achieve now that I’ve found the balance point?
I’m excited to find out, and I hope the same for you.

2024 has been a mission to build a Citadel Mind & Citadel Body.
Re: the mind, I’ve been going through the journey within to discover the source of unhappiness and feeling unfulfilled in my life.
Once you discover the source of happiness, just like the source of time and the source of money, is yourself, things can change quickly.
For those who’ve gone through this process, what’s the next step once you make it through the initial momentum of discovery & implementation of routines and changes in your life?
I’ve noticed remarkable differences in my mindset, my outlook & my relationships.
Re-wiring how your brain works after 40 years of habits and patterns is a difficult process.
Consistency is key for me. When I’m not consistent with my routines, I fall back into old ways of thinking and being which lead to noticeable mindset changes.
I wonder how (or if) it’s possible to get back the exciting & energetic feeling of when I first became aware ~3 months ago.

2024-05-29 12:50:25

I can see the future.
Problem is, nobody believes me at the time when I predict it and once my vision comes true, nobody remembers I called it 😂
I guess that’s what trading is for … if you have convictions in your predictions, you can financially benefit from them.
The problem arises when you are principled 😅

Every time I go back to Twitter (once every 2 days or so) I have to mute someone.

I'm hiring an Executive Assistant and paying a competitive salary.
This will be an important role in supporting my Bitcoin, entrepreneurial & personal adventures with dozens of projects across various industries from venture capital to video games to non-profit work.
I’m not an organized person by nature, I’m a “move fast break things” type of person. I’ve been very successful as part of a bootstrapped team and also as a lone wolf, relying on both my instincts and my long term convictions to create success. I’m a connector and my super power is seeing the future.
I need to find my very own Alfred who loves to create order from chaos & doesn’t mind giving me advice when I need it. Someone who loves meticulously architecting, priority sorting, crafting & maintaining to do list while interfacing with many people to keep projects moving forward.
I have a lot of passion projects on the go, including:
Fitness: I started a challenge to get abs and learn calisthenics! My goal is 165 lbs, 10% bodyfat & to eventually learn to be a calisthenics master. I’ve hired multiple coaches to help me get to this goal, and I’ve been exercising every single day, and eating clean. I hired a full time meal prep person and have been building a solid team of exercise friends. I’m committed to a new lifestyle of fitness.
Family: I want to spend as much time as I can doing relationship strengthening & fun activities with my wife & daughter like travelling, sports & hobbies. I also want to influence and encourage my extended family towards healthy habits & financial literacy.
Learning: I have conviction in my beliefs but I spend as much time as I can learning new skills, I’m a life long learner. I’m open-minded, coachable and flexible. Currently focused on learning about my own limiting beliefs & developing a new way of thinking to live a happier, healthier life. I’ve also invested in multiple business & mindset coaches to make me a better leader & life a more frictionless life.
Film: I was recently the executive producer of my sister’s award winning environmental documentary (which we finished with Bitcoin) & I'm producing/helping with multiple Bitcoin documentaries. I'm starting a film production company where we will be developing more educational documentaries as well as comedy films.
Podcast, Speaking, Events & Coaching: I run a Bitcoin education podcast & coach dozens of people on Bitcoin. I want to level up the events I do. I’m also a speaker at Bitcoin conferences & I am ramping up my media production team to create more educational content for social media that I'm passionate about.
Writing/Book: I’ve written a lot on financial markets, banking & money. I’ve got a first draft of a non-fiction book on financial literacy education and Bitcoin over the last few years, as well as working on a fiction book recently.
Advising: I’ve joined the advisory board / board of directors of a handful of companies and political groups including founding the Bitcoin Coalition of Canada, a non-profit aimed at educating policymakers and journalists in Canada about Bitcoin..
Investing: I’m a seed investor in dozens of Bitcoin startups, investing alongside prolific investors like @npub1sg6…f63m & others, with a focus on investing in entrepreneurs globally in Africa & Latin America. I plan to start a fund & raise money to support early stage bitcoin entrepreneurs building bitcoin & bitcoin adjacent companies on bitcoin layers globally.
Charity & Philanthropy: As I mentioned, I started a non-profit in Canada to help increase financial literacy. I’m raising for the non-profit while also supporting multiple financial education non-profits internationally as well as donate to dozens of global groups supporting human rights & fighting financial oppression globally. I also donate to local initiatives & desire to show up more in the local communities where I spend time.
Real Estate: I own an AirBnB that my mom runs, we plan to continue doing AirBnB projects, which require some attention now and then.
Travel & Lifestyle: Since my wife is Portuguese, we're interested in getting citizenship, buying property & starting a business in Portugal. We want to start taking more trips to other interesting countries, including family trips to places like Iceland, Jamaica, Japan & El Salvador. I want to mix my fitness & bitcoin education goals with this trips to make sure I’m also maximizing the opportunity to educate, speak & do podcasts in other countries when I visit.
Fun: I love to play video games, D&D, watch movies in the theatre, listen to comedy & play sports. I love to ski, surf & try new things. I desire to integrate more fun activities into my life in a healthy way to make sure it also fits in with my family & life goals.
With all of these projects plus more continually being evaluated, you can image my inbox & calendar is in need of someone to help wrangle everything and unlock hidden value that I have not had the time to even read.
This role is not just about administrative tasks; it's about becoming a key partner in achieving strategic business and personal growth goals. Our journey will be one of continuous growth and organizational structuring. I’m looking for an EA who will be pivotal in helping me level up in all areas of life.
If you know someone that sounds qualified, please send them to bradmills.ca/careers and have them apply.
Please share this post with anyone who you think might be qualified to join me.

I’m on day 14 of the 16 day cleanse I started.
It’s about 900-1200 calories a day, mostly raw vegetables and black coffee 😂
No salt, seasonings or sauces. Lots of dry salad, lots of grapefruit and 4-5 eggs a day.
I went through the full emotional rollercoaster doing this, I woke up depressed one morning about 6 days in.
“Why the hell am I doing this!?”
I am working out 7 days a week as well, lifting weights and doing HIIT and yoga. I almost passed out multiple times at the gym in the first week, but my body has adapted and I’m even making rep gains on the cleanse.
This was more of a mental challenge than a health challenge.
2 days left and I’m starting to see abs which is kind of mind blowing to me … I never thought I would have defined abs.
I thought I had too much stomach fat.
In 2010 I started exercising for the first time in my life and did P90X 3 times in a row and lost 40-50 lbs, that was my peak fitness level around 160 lbs.
Over the last decade I yo-yo’d up and down between 190-165, mostly sitting around 175-180 … gaining weight then losing it to make sure I never got back to my peak fatness.
I’m about to surpass my peak fitness level now at 41, and it feels surreal.
The next 3 mths is a muscle building phase.
My goal body is within reach.
Proof of work 💪

Stay humble. Stack Sats. Such a great mantra.
When it comes to wealth preservation and Bitcoin in general, your ego can be a major hindrance - my goal is:
1) to understand what is the best way to preserve and grow my personal net worth so I can have a life of abundance, success and love that I don’t have to ‘retire’ from.
2) to understand bitcoin and why it is the key to the above.
3) to acquire as much bitcoin as I possibly can while staying in consensus with my desires to help others.
4) to live a life of expanding authentic creation, using bitcoin as an abundance amplifier, inspiring others around me to do the same.
If you discover this path, your ego has no place.
There’s no need to get even, get invited, get offended, get noticed, get praised, get pissed, or any other “get” based things the ego is so good at.
When you understand bitcoin, and understand what your unique superpower/ability is … the thing that gives you purpose, and doesn’t feel like work … the ego is not required at all.
You must tame the ego, because it will try to take control.
Stay Humble. Stack Sats.

After a long sauna session I realized I was only living at about 3-4 out of 10 of my potential for the last ~4 years.
I’m improving every day but I’m not even at 6.15 out of10 yet.
It’s exciting to think about what it will be like when I’m living to my full capacity as my 10.0 self, empowered by Bitcoin.
I’m going to have so much more fun, create so much more and help so many more people.

I’m on day 55 of #100to100K
It was just what I needed after a very rough end of 2023 and a holiday binge month derailed me from my otherwise great progress in 2023.
As you can see from this graph I started doing 100 pushups a day at the local peak of my bodyfat % back in Feb.
Yesterday I just hit my lowest bodyfat % that I’ve been what feels like in 10 years.

I’m in proof of work mode. Currently down from 18% last year to 15.1% body fat.
My 2024 goal is 170 lbs, 12% bf and I’m dropping 0.05% bodyfat every day.
To get there I am eating 1800 cals/175g protein a day, with 45 min exercise every day, no scheduled days off.
Rest days are yoga & walks.

In 2011, I was inspired by Ron Paul, Peter Schiff & Robert Kiyosaki to save in sound money.
I took my entrepreneurial savings & bought gold & silver. Then I discovered magic internet money & started buying & mining Bitcoin at $10.
I recently posted about how I was operating from fear and how that was going to change.
After some reflection, I realize I wouldn’t be protected with a Bitcoin shield today without fear.
Fear is a powerful motivator.
Don’t ignore your fear, but, don’t let it control you.
Harness it and let it be a super power.
Is your fear real? If yes - then Cheerfully & Constructively do something about it. My doing something about it was productively protesting a corrupt system by saving in sound money.
Of course like all early pioneers, I didn’t make it to the promised land completely unscathed. Selling too much Bitcoin early, trusting insiders & exchanges, not having a risk management system, etc.
I’ll probably have a very hard time to ever make it back to my high watermark in BTC terms.
However, I just bought more BTC as we flipped Silver because I studied and learned lessons.
The first half of my life was about acquiring knowledge, mental toughening & learning lessons through experiences and gathering resources.
I was moving forward with naive hope and dreams, attracting success, but energy was leaking everywhere, high entropy.
Now I'm focusing my mind and body. I’m assembling a team. I’m moving into Citadel building mode.
Step 1 to building your bitcoin citadel is to have a clear vision and define the object objectives.
Clearly articulate the mission, goals, and values of your Bitcoin Citadel.
Outline how you envision the Citadel supporting your community, the Bitcoin ecosystem, your investments, and cultural projects you’re passionate about.
Your citadel must be big enough with fertile soil to allow for others to plant their dreams and grow within the protection of your walls.

I’m having such an incredible time here in Madeira.
I’ve been working out every day, eating lots of delicious meat, fish and vegetables and doing 100 pushups a day to $100K.
I have rarely travelled to Bitcoin/Nostr events but that’s about to change.
It’s so great to be surrounded by Bitcoiners. I’m actually coming back from this trip in better shape mentally and physically. I’ve lost 3 lbs of fat while I’ve been here for 8 days and I’ve been waking up at 5-6 am.
I’ve gotten so many positive messages from people I met for the first time at the conference and side events, surprisingly many even listen to my podcast 😅
I’m going to record an episode for the first time in 5 months tomorrow with @npub1l2v…ajft who really surprised me when he said he was a fan of my pod and encouraged me to record again 😀
Some exciting belly to belly things happening here with FREE Madeira, Sovereign Engineering, lots of bitcoin folks have moved here, and it’s no wonder why.
Plus what a great location it was for the Bitcoin Film Festival & the Startup Pitch Fest which I got to participate in!
I’m lucky to be in a position to have such a close proximity to people like @npub1exc…n72a and @npub1az9…m8y8 who I consider close friends and advisors as well as co-investors in great bitcoin companies.
Also got some great 1 on 1 time with people I look up to a lot like @npub1s5y…6q7z who gave me a great framework of thinking about how to be a good leader and focus on delegation and taking responsibility.
A great cliff side sunset walk with @npub1j8y…vrvg which I’ll never forget, and a protein packed Damus BBQ with @npub1xts…kk5s and his family & friends discussing webs of trust and nostr redaction.
I got a great sauna session in with @npub16c0…6nvr and his son Marko discussing overcoming fears and limiting beliefs, health and the future.
I have missed many opportunities and offers in the past couple of years because I had a “ceiling of complexity” … but because of my new daily health & mental level-up routine, i am choosing @npub1s05…eyhe's PICNUF framework to focus on the positive.
I also hired a coach, Dan Martell, and I’m fired up! I was talking to Aleks Svetski and he said he could feel my shifted energy 😀
I’m going to build a team and build my citadel (figuratively for now) and be more proactive about expanding my impact to help lift up my community, my family and as many startup founders and bitcoin culture contributors that I can.
I went through a thought exercise in January- if BTC was at $1 million tomorrow, would I be able to build an actual citadel? The answer was no. So I’ve been making big changes in my life to make sure I am the person who can building a citadel one day.
Who can? Brad Mills Can 😀
I also got a chance to briefly shake hands with (but not yet spend any time with) @npub15dq…lm5m and @npub1sg6…f63m who have inspired me greatly over the last few years.
Saylor’s “cheerful and constructive” message has been in the back of my mind as a self correcting mechanism for how I interact with bitcoin critics and shitcoiners.
Jacks commitment to right the karmic scales and be a net positive for freedom and free speech has inspired me to invest in many educational and bitcoin tech companies in Africa and Latin America - which surprisingly, Jack followed on to 2 or 3 of them in later rounds, showing I am on to something with my investing strategy.
I shook hands with and/or hugged and spent time with or broke bread with many many awesome people, and a bunch I wish I got to spend more time with.
I have a massive list of selfies with beautiful people and notes on the exciting things they are doing.
I’m going to start going to more of these events so I can develop closer relationships with all of you who are my tribe!
Excited to also be spending time with my wife and daughter while I’m here, because my wife is Portuguese and I’d love for us to get passports!
Thought I would share my positive thoughts as I’m driving to the west side of the island to see 15 foot waves 🌊

100 Pushups A Day Til $100K has evolved into me being committed to making not only financial all time highs with the inevitability of Bitcoin, but also committing to get into the best physical shape of my life.
Coming back from Bitcoin Atlantis after a 12 day workation, I’m going to be in the best shape of my life.
I’m making cycle lows in bodyweight and bodyfat %.
When BTC is at $150K I will to have added 5-8 lbs muscle mass.

I was operating from FEAR.
Fear of missing out.
Fear of the government.
Fear of wasting sats.
Fear of failing as a father.
Fear of leading.
I have strong hands that were forged in the fires of financial tectonics.
I’ve been slumbering, telling myself I’ve been practicing stoicism & delayed gratification, conserving energy.
The time for sitting on my hands is coming to an end, we are entering the 5th epoch of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin will awaken giants, but who among us will actually build a citadel?
Are you ready to build your citadel?
Building your citadel is about being a leader, a provider, a positive force for your friends, family & community.
Holding and sitting on your hands is not building the skills required to build a citadel and operate it to help the maximum amount of people around you.
I’m ready to level up, I’m preparing my body and mind.
100 Pushups a day to $100K was a great simple nudge to show me I had work to do.
Now I’m setting goals and gaining momentum.
I’m not sure where my ceiling is but I’m excited to find out. https://image.nostr.build/30c60f6519751ef3d6aaa6e0c9923f3f83941a6938e8c595147e8d9e1c0cf55a.jpg

I’m really struggling with lifestyle FOMO right now.
I have been a good HODLer for the last many years.
I sold some BTC in 2017/2018, after taxes I used the money to invest in companies, diversify into real estate and take some trips / make some films etc general lifestyle improvements.
I wanted to buy a Tesla X and build a dream home.
After some thought, I chose to frig the Tesla (even easier decision to stick with when Elon started shilling DOGE) and take the same money I’d have spent on 1 dream house to instead use it to upgrade my family’s living arrangements.
For myself, I did some minor renovations and landscaping on my existing house and we purchased and renovated an older home in Cape Breton and a Class C RV to drive back and forth with for summer visits.
That felt like the right decision, a modest lifestyle upgrade for myself while elevating the standard of living for my family and investing in Bitcoin entrepreneurs building bitcoin startups.
I even managed to buy back some BTC with the leftovers, albeit at higher prices.
I’ve been practicing delayed gratification for many years…however over the last 2 mths I’ve been experiencing a very big desire to upgrade to a more comfortable home.
We found an estate locally that is incredible, my wife fell in love with it, and I’m really struggling with the decision.
I know this is the absolute wrong time to sell BTC.
The real estate market in Ontario Canada is likely to see big drops over the next few years, and BTC is likely to see big gains over the next 2 years.
I’ve regretted selling too much bitcoin in the past, yet here I am wanting to do it again.
I really don’t think it’s a good idea to take on a large mortgage right now either since rates are so high … I’d hate to be a forced seller of BTC at lower prices in case we don’t see a raging bull market.
Is anyone else struggling with this?
Is this a top signal 😅
