Part I — You

Name *

Email *

Mobile — used only for accepted-participant logistics

Location / time zone *

Relationship and family context — spouse/partner, children and ages (optional)

Part II — Where you are

1. What brought you to this page — and why now? *

Not the polished version. What actually happened, or keeps happening?

2. Two kinds of dark. *

Some men lost everything and know exactly why it's dark. Others got everything they aimed at — and it's still dark, which is more confusing. Which one is closer to you? Say more if you can.

3. What have you already tried?

Books, protocols, therapy, retreats, medicine, philosophy — all of it counts, none of it disqualifies you. I tried everything on your list and then some.

4. Finish the sentence honestly: “…and then my real life will begin.” *

What's in your blank? A number, an exit, a title, an age? What is it supposed to buy you?

5. Where does God actually sit in your life right now? *

There is no wrong answer at this door — filed away for later, argued with, absent, close, complicated. Just tell the truth about today.

6. Who, if anyone, currently knows the unpolished version of your life? *

Part III — The commitment

The room — your preference, not your decision

Tell me which room you think fits. After I read your application, I'll tell you which room I see — they may not be the same, and I'll say so plainly.

The Threshold — forty days, ten men, weekly cohort sessions plus three private touchpoints. Private, one chair — the same standards and formation, walked privately. Not easier. Limited seats. Not sure — you tell me.

7. The hard edges, so you know exactly what you're applying for: *

~30 minutes of daily practice, more in the first two weeks · alcohol out for all forty days · honest inventories on paper · one night, alone, you will burn a page in a real fire · one relationship repaired before day 40 · a room where the truth gets told — ten men, or one chair.

Is there anything on that list you already know you will refuse — or will try to negotiate around? (Honesty here saves us both forty days.)

8. The only requirement. *

First: I believe this is the most complete performance methodology a man can walk into — every tool in it vetted against the best neuroscience and performance research there is, and proven on hard cases (mine first).

Second: its power comes from where it puts God — at the center, named honestly. Those aren't two separate claims. They're one: the tools finally work at full strength when they're in the right order. Nobody will rush you and nobody will ask you to perform a belief you don't hold.

The requirement is willingness: do the work, tell the truth, and stay genuinely open to considering that God is real — and that His desire for a relationship with you is real. Are you willing — and is any part of you saying so just to get in?

9. Anything I should know that I didn't ask? (optional)

What happens next: I read this myself, and you'll hear from me within three business days. If the Threshold is your room, you'll get the details, the investment, and your cohort's start date. If private work fits better — and I'll tell you if I think it does — the next step is one conversation with me before either of us commits. If neither is right, I'll say so plainly and point you somewhere better. Either way, you get a straight answer. Ten seats per cohort.

Your answers are read by me and no one else, used only to make this decision, and never fed to analytics or marketing tools. If you're not accepted, what you wrote stays between us.
