Aw, shucks. Life sucks sometimes, doesn’t it?

Let the record show: I get where you’re coming from.

One time, a very long time ago, I remember wishing that the 18-wheeler coming down the road would just hit me already—because that way, I’d have an excuse not to go back to the office.

It’s a shitty way to feel.

You know you’re smart.
You know you’re driven.
You’ve done some pretty cool stuff.
But none of it is making your heart race.

And you want that.

The whole reason why I started TMFproject, back in 2009, was to connect with like-minded people who felt the same way. The ones who wanted more. And who wanted to have some fun with their lives, too.

Since then, we’ve grown into a community full of big thinkers, and soon, we’ll be hosting a bunch of useful support groups & discussions for people just like you. The ones who want something more, but aren’t sure what that something is. Yet, anyway.

I’ll email you some of my thoughts soon, but in the meantime, I wrote you a few things that might help. ♥

Storm Down the Door of Life With a Hatchet & Some Gumption

Where’s Your God Damn Pineapple?

Calling Bullshit: “The More You Fear Something, The More You Should Do It.” Who Came Up With This Garbage?

Are They Telling You You’re Crazy?

Are You Going to Be Someone Who Does? Or…Someone Who Doesn’t?

Also? I would love to meet you.

As a part of this community, it’s really important to us that we get to know the individuals who hang out here—and not just see them as a “number.”  So take a second to raise your hand and tell us who you are, will you? We often like to send out reader surprises in the (actual) mail, and have a little fun from time to time, but we need to know a little bit more about you to pull off some of those stunts properly.
