Mission
Mission - WHY
Mission
"Until death, all defeat is psychological"
Hi, I'm Alex and I want to give you the fastest transformation in the history of humanity.
This mission might kill me this year.
What’s that 1 skill you want to learn? That will make you happy or successful? That you don't have time?
I have time. And we will do it in 1 week, together.
With intense focused project learning. Science proven. And with 10-20 hours of practice you will be ahead of 90% of the population.
Now combine that 52 times! Top 1%. Neohuman.
Because we might be the last generation to learn skills the hard way. Before God AI does the thinking for us. Before we forget what struggle and connection feels like.
To become better humans.
This is my 2026 mission. 52 weeks. 53 skills. Every week we become someone new, better.
Every week I prove what's possible when an average man stops making excuses and starts using every tool available.
AI will serve us.
For a better human future. Will you join?

What is this?
A public experiment. One skill per week. 20-30 hours of intense practice. AI-accelerated learning. Documented in real-time.
Why 53 skills? Not 52?
52 skills for 52 weeks. The 53rd will be revealed at the end. If I'm still alive.
Is this free?
Yes. Join the newsletter & community. Watch the journey. Learn what works, what fails, what almost breaks me.
What skills exactly?
Making money. Getting punched in the face. Talking to strangers. Coding. Cooking. Surviving. Meditating. Dancing. Everything a complete human should know.
Why are you doing this?
Because I'm tired of reading theory. Because AGI is coming and I want to be the last generation that actually thinks and struggles to learn.
What if you quit?
Then you watch a man fail publicly. Blame me for being a normal flawed human.
