Hey, I'm Alejandro.

In 1994, my mother left Cuba with nothing.

No money. No language. No connections. No safety net. Just me.

My parents had separated. She made the decision alone — a single mother with a young son.

We landed in Germany — a country where she couldn't read a street sign, order a coffee, or understand the forms she had to fill out.

She cleaned toilets. She cared for the elderly. She took the jobs nobody else wanted.

Not because she had to. Because she wanted something better for me than what Cuba could offer.

She learned German word by word. Built a life brick by brick.

I grew up watching that.

Watching what happens when you have a vision so clear that the obstacles become irrelevant. When the timeline is long enough that setbacks are just part of the journey. When you measure progress in years, not days.

It wasn't easy. There were years of struggle. Years of feeling like outsiders. Years of working twice as hard for half the recognition.

But she kept going. And eventually, the compound effect kicked in.

Now I'm 38. I studied tax law. Built a business. Invested in real estate. Made every mistake in the book — and learned from most of them.

And I'm working toward my next chapter: marrying my childhood sweetheart and moving to the US by 2028.

Full circle. Another country. Another language. Another leap.

But this time, I have something my mother didn't have:

A system for thinking in decades.

Life has been good to me.

Not because I'm special. But because I learned early that direction beats speed. That decades beat days. That the view from above changes everything.

When I look back at that 1994 version of my mother — standing in a foreign country with no language, no money, and a child to raise — I realize she had something most people never find:

A vision so clear that the obstacles became irrelevant.

She didn't have a productivity app. She didn't track habits or optimize her mornings. She just knew where she was going — and she kept walking.

That's what I'm building. Not another tracker. Not another habit app. A system that helps you find that clarity. That connects your daily actions to a vision that matters.

Because I believe the world needs more people who think in decades.

If that's you — welcome. I'm glad you're here.

— Alejandro
