10 years later: why I'm back (and why everything has changed)

JB Rives··5 min read

Hey, it's JB.

It's been 10 years. A full decade. If you were around back then, you might remember my articles on organization, the Pomodoro method, or how to generate passive income. That was a different era.

The "Passive Income" Illusion

I spent years chasing the dream of living off passive income — not having to work, just letting the money flow in. And you know what? I actually got there. But I discovered a brutal truth: doing nothing doesn't make you happy. Humans are built to create, to solve problems.

The Health Pivot

At the same time, I was fighting a personal battle with my own body. I explored intermittent fasting, metabolic nutrition, and I realized that productivity means nothing without physical energy. Mental clarity starts in the gut.

2025: The Technology Revolution

Today, I'm back with a new obsession: Automation through Technology. What used to take me 1 hour now takes 1 minute. I run my business from my phone, via WhatsApp, delegating to AI agents I coded myself. This blog is no longer here to sell you dreams. It's here to show you the future. I'll be sharing my tools, my scripts, and my philosophy for a life that's "active but effortless." Welcome to version 2.0.
