I used to run a bigger website. One of its main features was a collection of resource links — a personal roadmap to the internet filled with videos, articles, websites, books, and courses I found helpful.

It wasn’t just about writing. It covered all kinds of interests: from writing to graphic design, video editing, fitness training, philosophy, and more.

People found it useful. So now, I’m thinking about rebuilding it here on my current site. It’ll be a work in progress, expanding over time. Whenever I come across something valuable, I’ll add it.

What will be part of it?

• Writing
  Author blogs, helpful tools, books, and YouTube channels about writing better books — and marketing them.
• Graphic Design
  I used to make most of my income as a graphic designer. These days, I’m transitioning to teaching design tools on YouTube. I’ll share links to my own courses and other great resources for anyone wanting to learn design for personal projects or to start freelancing.
• Video Editing
  One of my mid-term goals is to start vlogging. I already have a good handle on Premiere Pro and CapCut. After Effects is a different beast — still working on that one.
• AI
  I use AI tools for editing and creative work. I’m familiar with Midjourney, and the long-term goal is to create AI-generated comics and films.
• Social Media
  I’ve learned quite a bit about YouTube over the years. Twitter/X and Instagram still confuse me, but maybe that’ll change. I’ll document the biggest lessons I learn as I figure out how to grow on each platform.
• Fitness
  I used to work as a personal trainer, so I know what I’m talking about. My health isn’t what it used to be, but I still train regularly to stay in shape. I believe everyone should. I’ll share the tools and routines for it.
• Religion / Philosophy / Politics
  The older I get, the more I realize these three are deeply connected. My current perspective falls somewhere between Ayn Rand’s Objectivism, libertarianism, and Christianity.
• Advice to My Son
  My father was a hardworking man, but apart from instilling a strong work ethic, he didn’t teach me much. I don’t want to repeat that mistake. This section will collect the most valuable life lessons I’d want to pass on to my son(s).
• Making Money
  Everyone wants to make money — especially those who say they don’t. I’ve worked many jobs. I failed at many, succeeded at enough to live a good life. Here I’ll share what I’ve learned from making a living online, investing, and the corporate life.
• Entertainment
  All a man needs is danger and play, Nietzsche said. Life without play and entertainment is dull. I love James Bond, Reacher, Star Trek, (non-Disney) Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Kill Tony, Anthony Jeselnik’s comedy, and more. I’m a casual gamer and still enjoy watching the NBA Playoffs, NFL, Formula 1, and football. I’ll share my favorite books, movies, shows, comics, anime, YouTube channels — all the things that entertain me.
• International Living
  I was born in Germany, but I don’t want to die here. One of my mid-term goals is to leave this overtaxed, bureaucratic mess for a better life elsewhere. Once I start this chapter, I’ll share everything I learn: living abroad, multiple passports, driver’s licenses, foreign bank accounts, and more.
• Other Hobbies
  I’m currently learning Spanish for fun. In the short term, I want to get into motorcycle riding. I’d like to try canoeing. One of my bolder dreams is to become a pilot and build a homestead on my own farm. I don’t know which of these goals will become reality, but once they do, I’ll share what I learn.

As I said, this will be a lifelong project — constantly changing, always expanding. I plan to blog for the rest of my life. So this resources page will grow along with me. Let’s see what it becomes.
