Tyler Williams just won the Cat 1 Men's 19-29 category at the Fox US Open of Mountain Biking at Deer Valley β€” and I had the privilege of sitting down with him right after his win. 🚡
Tyler is 19-29. He competed at one of the most demanding downhill courses in North America. He showed up completely prepared β€” mentally, physically, and emotionally β€” and he delivered a winning run.
What he shared about his training, his mindset at the starting gate, and what this sport demands of a competitor is a masterclass in the four pillars of living young β€” from someone who is just getting started.
The mental pillar. The physical pillar. The emotional discipline. The purposeful commitment. All four β€” on two wheels β€” at Deer Valley.
Share this with a young person in your life who needs to see what serious commitment looks like. πŸ”₯

Josh Crawford just won the 55+ Men's category at the Fox US Open of Mountain Biking at Deer Valley β€” one of the most prestigious downhill mountain biking events in North America. πŸ’ͺ
I sat down with Josh on the mountain after his win β€” and what he shared about competing at 55+, about what keeps him riding, and about what this sport has given him is exactly why I had to be at this event.
The Art of Living Young is not a concept. It is Josh Crawford on Bald Eagle Mountain at the Fox US Open. It is the physical pillar, the mental pillar, and the spiritual pillar refusing to bow to a number on a birth certificate.
Isaiah 40:31 β€” those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will run and not grow weary.
Josh ran. And he won.

Aletha Ostgaard arrived at Deer Valley as the 2026 Pro Women's Overall Season Champion of the Monster Energy Pro Downhill Series β€” the culmination of an entire season of competition across five stops that proved her to be the most dominant force in professional women's downhill racing in 2026. πŸ™
She also led all Pro Women's seeding runs at the Fox US Open with the fastest qualifying time in the field.
I had the privilege of sitting down with Aletha on the mountain for a conversation about what winning not just a race but an entire season actually requires, the months of physical preparation, the mental discipline that stays consistent across every stop, the emotional resilience that separates champions from competitors, and the spiritual sense of purpose that keeps a world-class athlete showing up at the highest level of her sport all season long.
This is what all four pillars look like at the absolute top. Not for one run. Not for one event. For an entire season.
That is a champion.
Share this with every woman in your life who needs to see what sustained excellence at the elite level looks like up close. πŸ”₯

Right behind me β€” Bald Eagle Mountain at Deer Valley Resort. And what you are about to see coming down this mountain is some of the most extraordinary athletic performance on the planet. 🚡

I am here at the Fox US Open of Mountain Biking β€” September 11 through 13, 2026 β€” the final round of the Pro Downhill Series and the Official US National Mountain Bike Championship. And I want to tell you why I had to be here.

Because everything that happens on this mountain this weekend is a masterclass in what the four pillars of living young actually look like when they are pushed to their absolute limit.

The Physical Pillar β€” years of deliberate physical commitment at 60 miles an hour.
The Mental Pillar β€” complete focus and presence in conditions that would paralyze most people.
The Emotional Pillar β€” fear, courage, and what every rider feels at that starting gate.
The Spiritual Pillar β€” what it looks like when a human being finds the thing they were made for.

Youth athletes discovering what they are capable of. Adaptive athletes refusing to let any barrier define what is possible. Pros competing for the US National Championship title. Amateurs who decided showing up mattered more than winning.

That is The Art of Living Young. That is Live Ready Young.

Isaiah 40:31 β€” those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. That promise has two wheels and no brakes at Deer Valley this weekend. πŸ”₯

Share this with someone who needs to see what fully alive looks like. πŸ™

πŸ’¬ Which of the four pillars resonates most with you watching these athletes compete?

Have you ever had a knowing that arrived before you could explain it logically? You just knew something. And the ones who ignored it often wished they had listened. πŸ™

Week 12 of Live Ready Young is live on YouTube now β†’ [YOUR YOUTUBE LINK]

The Brain. The Sixth Sense. Sound Health.

Napoleon Hill called the sixth sense the apex of his entire philosophy β€” the connecting link between the finite mind and Infinite Intelligence. Every person of faith already has a name for it. It is the Holy Spirit.

In today's full video I cover how the brain receives impressions beyond its own conscious knowledge, how sound health creates the conditions for spiritual intuition, why fear is the primary enemy of the sixth sense, and how the Sixth Sense Journal β€” seven mornings of structured stillness β€” will change how you start every day.

1 Kings 19:12 β€” after the earthquake and after the fire β€” a still small voice.

God has been speaking. The question is whether you are still enough to hear it.

Right now β€” wherever you are sitting β€” check your shoulders. Are they creeping up toward your ears? πŸ’ͺ

We treat sitting like it's neutral. Like it's just resting. But your body doesn't experience it that way. Every hour you spend hunched over a screen is an hour your hip flexors tighten, your upper back rounds forward, and your lungs get less room to breathe.

Here is the thing β€” you don't need a gym membership to fix this. You need movement, in small doses, all day long.

Set a timer for every 45 minutes. When it goes off β€” stand up. Roll your shoulders back. Take five real breaths. That's it.

Your body isn't asking for perfection. It is asking to not be frozen in one position for eight hours straight.

Move a little consistently today. That is the whole assignment.

Share this with someone who sits at a desk all day. This might be exactly what they need to hear. πŸ™

πŸ’¬ Are your shoulders up right now? Be honest! πŸ˜„

Everything from Owl β€” and all of it Made in the USA. Filmed this right as we hit the road for some scenic Utah driving. Check it out!

Napoleon Hill described the brain as a broadcasting and receiving station for thought β€” capable of picking up impressions and ideas from beyond its own conscious experience. And most people have never learned to tune the receiver. 🧠

Proverbs 3:5-6 β€” trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.

That is not a prayer of passivity. That is a mental discipline of active surrender β€” training your mind to receive direction rather than always generating it on its own.

Your mental practice this week: before you engage your phone in the morning β€” sit for five minutes in complete stillness. No input. No output. Just receive. Write down whatever surfaces. That is sixth sense training.

Share this with someone whose mind needs to learn how to receive β€” not just produce. πŸ™

Have you ever watched someone do something so obviously wrong β€” so clearly avoidable β€” and thought to yourself: how does that person function in daily life? πŸ˜…

I'm Ed Bailey β€” and today on The Art of Living Young we are talking about common sense. Basic, practical, everyday judgment. The ability to look at a situation and make a reasonable decision without needing someone to hold your hand through it.

People with no common sense do these10 things without even realizing:

1️⃣ Ask questions before trying to find the answer themselves
2️⃣ Make the same mistakes over and over without reflection
3️⃣ Overshare in every situation without reading the room
4️⃣ Show up late consistently and expect it to be fine
5️⃣ Overspend without awareness of the consequences
6️⃣ Spend too much time online and call it relaxation
7️⃣ Ignore advice they personally asked for
8️⃣ Be obnoxious in public without noticing
9️⃣ Expect special treatment and constant attention
πŸ”Ÿ Ignore social norms that everyone else respects
1️⃣1️⃣ Blame other people for every problem they face

And here is the truth β€” common sense is not inherited. It is a skill. And like any skill it can be developed through experience, self-reflection, empathy, and faith.

Proverbs 3:21 β€” preserve sound judgment and discernment. Do not let them out of your sight.

Before this week ends β€” one honest question. What have you been planting? πŸ™

Your dominant thoughts are not just passing through. They are planting. Right now. In the soil of your subconscious mind.

Philippians 4:8 β€” think on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. Proverbs 23:7 β€” as a man thinks in his heart, so is he.

Complete the Thought Mastery Audit this weekend. Observe your dominant thoughts for 24 hours. Identify your three most recurring patterns. Write one replacement thought for each that is true, faith-filled, and in the present tense. Then speak them every morning for seven days before the world gets access to your mind.

I posted the Full Week 11 Live Ready Young video on Wednesday.

Come back Monday for Week 12 β€” The Brain and the Sixth Sense. How to tap into the Infinite Intelligence available to every person of faith. πŸ”₯

Share this with someone who needs to hear that their thoughts are not just passing β€” they are planting. πŸ™

πŸ’¬ What replacement thought are you planting this week?
