8 PM. Pen and paper. Three minutes.

They write down their wins from the day. Big ones. Small ones. The ones they have to dig for when the day went sideways.

Then they dump every priority floating around their head onto paper. Get them out. Stop the mental loops. Move from sympathetic to parasympathetic.

Finally, gratitude. Not just what they're grateful for. They think about when someone was grateful for what they did. Try it. You'll end with a smile you didn't expect.

That's the Victory Lap. Ending the day on your terms.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁.

Large glass of water waiting from the night before. Quality salt. Fresh lemon. Your body's been without water for 7-8 hours. This isn't optional.

Same journal. Coffee brewing. You review last night's notes.

The priorities you dumped? Now you sort them. The gratitude notes? The smile returns. You're already winning in the mindset department.

You review your Alpha 5 standards. Set your eating intentions. Protein-centric. Real food. Maybe you decide each meal right now. Either way, you're not winging it.

Training time gets blocked. Sacred. No calls. No clients. No negotiations.

Four fills of your 25-ounce Argent Alpha bottle. 100 ounces minimum. You know the number. You own the number.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿.

What doesn't need to be there? Delete it.

The outside world doesn't get a seat at your table until you decide to open the door.

You own your calendar. Your calendar doesn't own you.

We call it bookending. Victory Lap at night. Pre-game planning in the morning.

Two simple processes that put you back in control.

Most men let their days happen to them. The men in Argent Alpha? They happen to their days.

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲:

Tonight at 8 PM, grab a notebook. Take your first Victory Lap.

Tomorrow morning, run your pre-game.

Own your calendar. Run your life with intention.

Blank Canvas, How I Reinvented My Life After Prison

This book isn't just a memoir; it's a roadmap for anyone who has ever felt lost inside their own life, a guide back to authenticity, and a call to action to embrace your true self, flaws and all. 

James Altucher, best-selling author of Skip the Line, Choose Yourself and Reinvent Yourself, has this to say about "Blank Canvas":

"Craig has lived a story NOBODY would ever want to live. I was riveted to each page because I kept asking myself, "How would I handle this?" and I didn't know the answers. Craig takes us into hell, and then we ride with him on the journey back. Great story, great writing, great human being."

With a deeply personal story of overcoming federal prison and hitting rock bottom, Craig delivers powerful keynotes that resonate with anyone seeking to unleash their potential, discover purpose, and live authentically. 

Here's what meeting planners say about my talks, 

"His session was far and away the most well-received session we had." 

"He has a unique ability to connect with audiences and inspire them to take action."

Book Author

Connect with yourself, unleash your full potential, and discover deeper meaning and purpose beyond professional, financial, and material success. Keynote & TEDx Speaker | Author | Reinvention Architect

In 2012, I made a devastating choice that cost me everything—my career, my reputation, and my freedom.

Sitting alone in my prison cube, stripped of everything I thought defined me, I was planning how I'd take my own life.

It was rock bottom.

But rock bottom wasn't the end—it became my turning point.

Prison became the unexpected catalyst for my reinvention. 

I stopped chasing external success and started creating what truly matters: authenticity, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment.

Rebuilding my life wasn't about returning to who I was but discovering who I could become.

That journey taught me a powerful truth: reinvention isn't just possible—it's transformative.

Today, I share the hard-won lessons from my story to help individuals, teams, and organizations unlock their full potential.

Here's what I believe:

When people show up authentically and are driven by purpose and meaning, they don't just work—they thrive.

 And when individuals thrive, organizations flourish.

As a keynote speaker, I don't just inspire audiences.

I equip them with actionable tools to embrace reinvention, turn setbacks into opportunities, and step into their most impactful, authentic selves.

Key Themes I Focus On:

✔️ Purpose: Discovering the "why" that fuels your life, work, and impact.

✔️ Authenticity: Showing up as who you truly are, free from masks or pretense.

✔️ Potential: Unlocking the limitless potential within yourself and your team to achieve more than you ever thought possible.

✔️ Resilience: Rising stronger from setbacks, adapting with clarity, and moving forward with confidence.

✔️ Fulfillment: Building a life where success isn't just about what you achieve but how you feel—thriving in career, relationships, health, and personal growth.

Because professional success and personal fulfillment can coexist—and together, they create extraordinary impact.

Reinvention transformed my life. Now, it's my mission to help others transform theirs.

If your organization is ready to unleash its team's authentic potential and redefine success, let's connect.

When your people thrive, everything changes.

Ready to deliver an unforgettable experience that will inspire your audience and transform your organization?
