Mike, an early innovator in the cryptocurrency realm, embarked on his Bitcoin journey in 2011, during the nascent stages of digital currency when decentralized money was still a novel idea. With the price of Bitcoin at a mere seventy cents, Mike’s foresight and determination led him to mine the cryptocurrency, leveraging the computational power of GPUs in an era where mining pools were the crux of Bitcoin acquisition. His story is not just about the triumphs but also the tribulations, including the infamous Mt. Gox hacks and the eventual shutdown of the Silk Road, which shaped his perspective on the volatility and the potential of this digital asset.

 

Mike’s expertise extended beyond mere acquisition; he became a proponent of self-custody and robust security principles, advocating for a mix of hot and mainly cold hardware wallet storage to safeguard digital assets against the backdrop of a tumultuous market.

 

The common misconception that early Bitcoin miners like Mike must have amassed fortunes is challenged by the reality of the market’s early instability. Despite mining Bitcoin when it was worth fractions of a dollar, Mike focused on the sustainable growth of his operation, ensuring that his endeavors could support his living expenses while fueling his passion for coding and optimization. The longing for a time machine is a sentiment shared by many early adopters, yet the lessons learned and experiences truly define Mike’s journey.

 

Mike is a Serial IT Entrepreneur with a Master of Science in Commercial Enterprise in Space from Florida Tech, a Bachelor of Business Administration in Entrepreneurship & Marketing from Kent State University, and a CompTIA Security+ CE Professional.

This book was a great pleasure to read. At the beginning it seemed as if it would only be a self help book but with every short story I could feel my growth transcending to a higher height. I was emotional while reading this book, and felt this book was and it’s very useful for my life. This is a book that is great for reference on the shelf! I think you’ll really enjoy it and invite you to keep turning those pages! Great set of stories from a great author.

I think we can all relate to not feeling like we are where we should be in one aspect or another, and this book is all about that. One of the things that I loved about it, is how the author tells us right up front that there is nothing new in this book, this is just his telling of advice and tips that have been told countless times over the years.
I really enjoyed reading this, and found it helping me to feel less anxious about how my life is turning out. I hope others read this, and find some peace knowing that it’s ok that they “haven’t arrived” yet.
I’ll definitely be looking up more by this author, his wit and insight into every day life puts a refreshing spin on old advice.

Michael shares in part his journey in life through many avenues such as quotes, poetry, musings, hopes, dreams, reflections, tips and so much more. He offers it all up so that others may resonate, pursue and find their own journey.
It is a guide for you to embrace your own personal reflection and growth in life if you so choose. Only you know where you are in your life, where you want to be and if you have arrived and Michael is offering some tools to help you there.
“You are exactly where you are supposed to be” is the mantra I would tell my friend every day when she would get mad sitting in peak hour traffic and surprisingly, she adapted that to her whole life.
It is a personal journey that is never a straightforward road and what works for one may be different for another but there is definitely something for everyone within these pages.

3 – 3.5 Stars

 

You Are Not Here: Stories and Inspirations For those Who Have Not Yet Arrived by Michael Albanese is a motivational book made up of many short stories, poetry, musings, anecdotes, reflections, observations, and messages to encourage the reader. The human condition means that we are always striving to find where we belong, striving for more, and to ‘be’ more- and when we don’t achieve ‘more’ we look at it as some sort of failure. Here, Mr. Albanese help to give us a different perspective. To perhaps see things from a different angle, and to affirm that you/me/we are not alone in this.
A very though-provoking read.

Thank you, Michael Albanese!

I really enjoyed this book more than I first thought I would! Super easy read (even for a slow reader like me). Michael did a really good job writing this. It was inspirational and had some humor throughout as well. This book shows that even though we might not feel like it, we are exactly where we are supposed to be. Each obstacle and challenge in life happens for a reason and shapes us into the person we’re supposed to be.

The End Of Try Try Again by Kristen Carter, MS – Review by Rita White

If you are like me, you have tried countless diets and paid a pretty penny. I don’t know what I thought I would gain by reading this book, but boy, am I glad I did! The main thing is to change 1 habit at a time and consistency. I learned a lot of the science behind weight gain and weight loss in words that I could understand. If you are tired of the yoyo diets and really want to change your lifestyle, give this book a read.

This was a rather interesting take, and one that I can get behind, on how to approach weight loss and exercise struggles. For most of my life, I’ve had a struggle with weight and I viewed it from the standpoint that it was all just in the food I was eating. This author takes a look at, and encourages the reader to also take a look from the inside out. How does motivation influence our choices? There is also a focus on baby steps and not just jumping in with both feet and expecting to thrive. Overall, a good book with some pointers that I plan on implementing myself.

The End Of Try Try Again by Kristen Carter, MS. As someone who has struggled their entire 54 years with weight I jumped at the chance to read this self help book. I have tried every fad diet known to man from grapefruit diet to cabbage soup diet. I’ve been on a diet where I went to meetings and I’ve bought food that didn’t work and just like all fads they stop working when you stop working. I’ve spent countless dollars and cried numerous tears so I was excited to get to read this book. Its from a Dr that has been in the industry for over 30 years she is delving into the Psychological aspect of weight loss. We all want that miracle pill or that quick fix but in reality it is hard work, determination and setting your motivation in the right way. This book is full of tips and ideas that really hit with me and I am truly going to try it. I’m now diabetic and am told its going to be really hard for you to lose the weight at your age but I’ve got to not let that get in my head. The step by step process in this book is doable and I plan on trying it. It helps us see why we choose what foods we choose and why we work out or don’t. I’ve got a grandbaby coming in September so I’ve got to be healthy for him so I’m going to give these steps a try! Great motivating self help book!

This was a very insightful read about approaching weight loss. I have tried several different diets and exercise regimens over the past decade and a half with little to no results. Anytime I did see changes, none of them were solid and didn’t last long. From the very beginning of this book, I knew I had done myself a favor by picking it up. Instead of just throwing random diet fads and intensive exercises in your face, this author digs into the psychological factors. The narrative is changed by focusing on the why, the how, and how you treat yourself. I truly appreciate the simplicity and the sheer ingenuity of this book. If you are looking for a new perspective on health and weight loss, this should be the next book you pick up! I highly recommend giving this a read.

The End of Try Try Again: Overcome Your Weight Loss and Exercise Struggles for Good is a self-help book designed to help you overcome your battle of the bulge once and for all. The author has been working in the fitness and nutrition industry for over 30 years and has taken the time to write about what tools it takes to help us lead healthier lives. With so many fitness fads and diets out there it can become overwhelming to anyone who is struggling to lose weight or find something that will work for their own personal needs. Personally, I know it’s been an ongoing struggle for me as far back as I can remember to find something that works to keep the weight off. The convenience of processed foods and fast foods combined with a busy lifestyle has made it increasingly more difficult to get healthy and has added to more weight gain. As I got older, the weight became harder to lose, and I feel more defeated. I know that when I want to lose weight, I expect the pounds to come off overnight, which obviously is obviously unrealistic. There is no magic pill that will help the pounds instantly melt off. This book helped me to understand that the combination of numerous factors around me impact my thinking. It is about more than just exercising, more than choosing the correct foods to eat, and about more than sheer willpower. This book gives the tools to explain why it is so much more than that and offers a step-by-step process which enables you to take the steps necessary to improve your over all well being. This was a very insightful read with a lot of tips and pointers that really got me thinking about a new way to approach my health and wellness journey.

I’ve read several books on weight loss so I figured I would give this short book a try as well. The title makes it sound like it has the answer. I know you can’t expect fast results or a miracle cure, but I found this book to just say the basics that we always hear. I did like the fact that it gives you questions to ask yourself and things to think about. I also like the idea of making small choices each day or week. I was hoping for some kind of more detailed plan though. I would not be able to make informed choices on what changes to introduce into my normal daily routine based on this book alone.

At this stage of my life I almost like I could be considered a professional dieter. I have been told I was overweight since I was 12, looking back I wasn’t but I didn’t fit the normal body type.

I have tried almost every option available. Paid programs, medications, fasting, etc. but nothing has stuck. This book gave me some things to think about and wish I had found it sooner.

I have been on my most recent journey down the weight loss path since January 2021, while I have successed in not losing focus I haven’t tried much to change my habits. This book has given me some great ideas on how to make decisions and form better habits.

If you’re thinking about losing weight or keep it off, even if it’s a different habit you’re wanting to change I would suggest giving this a try.

This was a really refreshing read for me. As someone who works in the health and fitness industry it was really refreshing to read a book about diet and exercise that wasn’t offering quick fixes and diet plans that are unsustainable and in some cases leads people to develop a unhealthy relationship with food.
This book was really well written. It was very informative but also written in a way that anyone can understand. As well as giving the reader a better understanding into why we can stick to diets and the mindset changes that need to take place for you to be successful it also offers practical examples for you to try and start your fitness journey on stronger more solid foundations.
You can tell from reading this that the author knows what they are talking about. And it was interesting how there was information about the negative effects of being overweight as well as practical ways you can combat that and maybe stop or reverse those illnesses.
The main thing I like was the focus on mindset and forming habits rather than just eating less carbs or cutting something out. It encourages people to get started on their journeys as it only takes the smallest step to start building better, healthier habits.

I found this self help book interesting and informative whilst being easy to read and understand. The book aims to help you overcome your weight loss and exercise struggles for good. The author is obviously a professional and very knowledgeable, she promotes choosing an ‘acceptable lifestyle that balances desire with health’. The book helped me to feel more in control of my choices and allowed me to discover solutions that actually fitted into my life. I liked the fact that the book starts with an explanation of how our brains and bodies work, in order to work with them not against them. I was fascinated to learn how it can be our attitudes and beliefs that prevent us achieving something and the book gave me a new way of thinking about diet and exercise. The book uses extensive research to explain why making big changes can be complicated, but by using the ‘science of motivation’ we can achieve our diet and exercise goals. The book aims to give readers a clear and inspirational formula that can lead to life-changing results. I would definitely recommend this self help book as it has definitely helped me personally.

Many books out there have suggestions but none have been this helpful. The author of this book really knows her stuff. You can tell she has done her research, which I admire in an author. I hope this book helps you with your weight loss as well as your struggles to get healthy.

The End Of Try Try Again by Kristen Carter, MS – Review by Nakyshia Leger

The End of Try Try Again: Overcome Your Weight Loss and Exercise Struggles for GoodThe End of Try Try Again: Overcome Your Weight Loss and Exercise Struggles for Good by Kristen Carter
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Manageable, helpful, achievable! Gone are the days of trying diet after diet, trend after trend. To have long term results you have to make life changes. This book starts with basic knowledge and understanding of WHY our bodies work the way they do and then gives strategies to make changes necessary for long term results. It is far more than “Eat this, not that…” and “Do this, not that..”. It makes goals feel achievable and possible without any shame or negativity involved! I am so glad I found this book!
