Dubai, UAE.
Out of the 1,600 men in The War Room, an elite global network founded by my friends Andrew and Tristan Tate, only 33 have been chosen to be mentors, the leaders among leaders. I’m now honored to be one of them, commemorated with the gift of a rare, golden coin.
On one side of this coin is a horse, rising beneath the kanji for fate (運) and inspired by the Japanese Mori clan’s mastery of the seas. The inscription reads: “By the pride of Mori, I am the true one” This is the mark of legacy, luck, and elite identity.
On the other side of the coin, set over the Oda crest, is the kanji for verified (認証). The inscription reads: “In the name of Oda, I am the true one” This is a seal of authority, lineage, and unmatched status.
This past week, our brothers from 27 countries descended on Dubai for The War Room’s end-of-year events. What struck me most was Andrew Tate’s words during his keynote speech:
“It’s like we’re sitting around the campfire, laughing, joking, and telling stories. That campfire could be in jail; that campfire could be at the best restaurant in the world; that campfire could be on a trip to Marbella, but it all comes back to being with your boys – we’re living the best days of our lives right now – and we need to remember that.”
Later, I visited with Tristan Tate at his $40 million penthouse atop the Pagani towers. He asked me how many kids I had.
“Just one beautiful daughter, for now,” I said.
Tristan grinned. “You need to step up those numbers, brother.”
I felt that! Competition isn’t just about business — it’s about legacy. He’s winning, and it made me want to win more. That’s what brotherhood does.
I’ve circled the globe twice in the last month. I’m exhausted. But being in a room where Palestinians and Jews shake hands, where Russians and Ukrainians embrace as brothers, makes it all worthwhile. We transcend national and religious boundaries. We’re not restrictive to religion or race. The War Room is about men committed to honor, integrity, and edification. The War Room is about men taking care of our families, our communities, and each other. Our brotherhood holds us to the highest standards, making us competitive in the best possible way.
Guys, we need constructive competition now more than ever..
The era ahead is going to be hard. AI is coming for everyone. The EU is crumbling. The UK is falling apart. Even in the USA, I see economic struggle on the horizon. If you’re just a cog in someone else’s machine, if you can’t differentiate yourself in the marketplace, you’re done. You don’t have to be an entrepreneur, but you do have to be irreplaceable. Everything you want, someone else wants too:
- The woman
- The house
- The job
- The life
Life is competition. If you’re not evolving, you’re being left behind. This golden coin is a further reminder of that. While it was fate (God, Allah, etc.) that brought me here, my verification came through action. Action is achieved through simplicity of discipline.
Two years ago, I manifested the desire to one day be friends with the Tate brothers. Today, they know me by my first name. After a few drinks at his penthouse, Tristan joked that “Tomislav” would make a legendary name for one of his sons. We both laughed, but here’s the thing — I didn’t get to that conversation through pure luck. I showed up every day to be the best. I succeeded. Success isn’t complicated. It’s simple. But simple isn’t easy. It takes hard work and a brotherhood that holds you to the highest standards.

This is not a sponsorship. I am not getting a dime to recommend these groups to you, and I wouldn’t accept it if I was. I genuinely want to offer you the opportunity.
New Projects & Industry Disruption — Nomad Energy & Aspire Dubai Expansion
I dropped off cases of Nomad Energy at Tristan’s penthouse this week. His response was immediate:
“Tomislav, use any videos of me drinking these for your marketing. I just want to help a brother out.”
That’s our brotherhood in action.
Meanwhile, Aspire Rejuvenation continues expanding, with a new location in Ebensburg PA, and our Dubai operations are still accelerating. The conversations I’ve been having here in the UAE are about changing how we as human beings approach health, hormones, and longevity. I’m building relationships with officials, ministers, and industry leaders who see this mission and want to support it.
Next, this is your insider’s look at the latest in health and wellness!

Bryan Johnson Appears on Jubilee to Debate Extreme Longevity Protocols
RFK Jr. Considers Scaling Back FDA Chief Marty Makary’s Role
Biohacker Bryan Johnson appeared on Jubilee to debate whether extreme longevity protocols are the future of health or just performance art masquerading as science. Critics questioned the accessibility and psychological pressure of his Blueprint routine, while Johnson defended his data-driven approach.
Bryan Johnson is an extreme case study, so he’s not the perfect example to follow. But here’s what people miss: he’s conducting a real experiment on himself, and his data shows he’s reversing cellular aging. Does that mean he’ll live to 170? We don’t know. But what if he’s right?
The pushback he gets is, in my opinion, mostly due to wealth resentment: “Of course he can do this — he’s rich!” Okay, so get rich. I know plenty of idiots who are wealthy. It’s not some mystical barrier — granted, it takes hard work. But you don’t need to be rich to be healthy. You don’t need millions to move to a Blue Zone, eat clean food, and live longer than 90% of people in Western society.
People don’t want to do the hard work. Bryan Johnson’s approach may be obsessive, but at least he’s taking control. Most people aren’t even trying. They’re eating seed oils, sitting at desks all day, sleeping five hours a night, and wondering why they feel like garbage.
Want to live longer and feel better? Start simple: delete the junk food, lift weights, sleep eight hours, manage your stress. That’s it. The recipe is simple. The execution is hard. And that’s exactly how it should be.
Podcast Insights: That’s How I Turn Men Into Superhumans with Dr. Rafael
This week’s episode features Dr. Rafael, a men’s health physician and hormone specialist who breaks down what’s destroying men’s energy, testosterone, and longevity. We covered visceral fat, seed oils, plastics, sleep deprivation, and the Western lifestyle that rewards convenience over health.
One of our key insights: “If you have your diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management on point, everything else is easy. Being healthy is so simple — most people just don’t want to do the work.”
He’s exactly right. Success is simple. Getting in shape is simple. Being healthy is simple. The difficulty is what makes it valuable. If everyone had abs, nobody would care. If everyone was a millionaire, a Bugatti would be worthless. The rarity comes from the difficulty.
I’m 40 years old with visible abs (when I’m not bloated from eating pizza), I’m wealthy, I’m building an empire. This isn’t a flex but a challenge to you. I am also challenged by those better than me. Cristiano Ronaldo is also 40 years old, with a six-pack, and he’s faster and more agile than men half his age. He’s faster than me, he’s richer, but he didn’t wake up like that. He built himself through years of elegant discipline.

Tomo Challenge of the Week: Make the Hard Simple
Here’s your challenge this week, and I want you to actually do this.
Find three things you consider to be hard. Maybe this is:
- getting in shape
- Making more money
- Landing that dream relationship
- Building a business, etc.
Write them down.
Now, next to each one, write the simple executable steps to achieve it. What you’re going to see is that everything you perceive as difficult is simple. Losing weight? Eat less, move more. Making money? Provide value, solve problems, stay consistent. Building muscle? Lift heavy, eat protein, sleep eight hours.
The simplicity is going to infuriate you because you’ll realize you’ve been making excuses for things that have straightforward solutions. If you want, email me your three hard things and the simple steps you did to solve them. Maybe I’ll pull you onto Instagram Live or bring you on the podcast to discuss the simplicity of your “complex” problems. Do this exercise for a year, and I guarantee you’ll succeed.
The Japanese understood this with their warrior philosophy: fate brings you opportunities, but verification comes through action. The gold coin I’m holding is proof of that.
Thank you.
