Scott Kaveny-Thursday, April 18, 2024 – Finished Lessons from Prison book by Justin Paperny
I finished up the book Lessons From Prison. It was very insightful as to how people become criminals through the fraud triangle: opportunity, rationalization, and pressure. The emotions that come from that are lust, greed, and ambition. The emotions associated aren’t bad or good, but when it’s related to a fraud triangle example, that can […]
Scott Kaveny-Wednesday, April 17, 2024 – Found Hope With White Collar Advice and Justin Paperny
I am going to start journaling again after a long hiatus. There has been journaling in the past, but it was mostly audio. I had a really conflicted day. I spent over 6+ hours listening to White Collar Advice (WCA) and have been obsessed with their advice. Why? Because I want relief and understanding of […]
Scott Kaveny-Sunday, February 11, 2024 – Losing Hope, Feeling Stuck
I can’t sleep well. I woke up at 12:30 am when I started sleeping at around 9 pm. I’m not sure why I’m getting up at this particular time at night. I took a look at my life and have been doing that a lot recently. I have not been happy with a lot of […]

Introduction When Anthony first reached out to me, the one thing that struck me was his resilience. He didn’t want sympathy for the challenges he faced. Nor did the adversity of his life weigh him down. Instead, he sought guidance and a way to carve a better future. Anthony wanted to overcome the crisis that […]

One thing I won’t miss from prison is all of the slow walking. Some people walk so slow and you get stuck behind them when you are going somewhere. I know it sounds hard to believe, but I have a long list of items on my list of things to do each day (Reading, writing […]

Tracking My Progress Every Sunday night I map out concrete targets for the week: I record the list in my journal and keep it open on my desk. Each night I check off what’s done, note any gaps, and adjust the next day’s plan if I’m behind. At week’s end I email the completed scorecard […]
Krishna P.-05/04/2025-Why I’m Really Here—and Why I Won’t Come Back
I grew up an only child in Murrieta, Atlanta, with parents who did everything right—encouraged ambition, backed every plan. They even let me finish high school online so I could chase internet‑marketing money at thirteen. That early success convinced me rules were optional if results looked good. Fast‑forward: supplements, skincare, F9 Advertising in Puerto Rico, tax incentives, rapid […]

While going through decades in prison, we learn to expect obstruction from the system. It’s our responsibility to continue growing through obstruction, to always be learning. I found opportunities to learn from reading. Books helped me understand how leaders in the world beyond prison walls think. Now that I’m free, instead of reading books, I […]
Krishna P.-05/03/2025-Building Resilience & Adaptability
Today I laid out a one‑month framework to hard‑wire resilience—physical first, then mental. Morning RoutineI’ll start every day with a 30‑minute run at dawn. Non‑negotiable. The goal for the first month is to cover 75 total miles; that averages out to 2.5 miles per day, leaving a small buffer for any travel or rest days. A […]
Celeste Monette Blair-05/03/2025-The Magic of Spoke Overlap
In 2023 I read an article in The National Liberator, an Aleph production, here is the excerpt: ” Voters banned slavery from state constitutions, redefining prison labor. More than 150 years after slavery was abolished, four states- Alabama, Oregon, Tennessee, and Vermont- voted to eliminate language in their constitutions that allows slavery as punishment for […]
