Inner War: How the Driven Conquer Themselves Before They Conquer the World

What if the biggest battles you face aren't in the boardroom, on the battlefield, or in your inbox-but in your own mind?

The Inner War is a raw, riveting, and remarkably relatable story for the high-achiever who's done all the "right" things-and still feels like something's missing. This modern parable follows Rex "Rocky" Rhodes, a hyper-driven entrepreneur whose relentless pursuit of success has brought him accolades, income, and influence-but not peace.

When Rex stumbles into a strange little quiz from a friend, he doesn't expect much. But what he discovers is a mirror: a hauntingly accurate profile of what it means to be "Driven." Not broken. Just wired differently. And maybe... misunderstood.

What begins as reluctant curiosity turns into a reckoning with stillness, identity, shame, and sovereignty. Through fits and false starts, sarcastic inner monologues, and painfully honest revelations, Rex embarks on an unconventional journey into Eyes Wide Open meditation-a method designed for people who hate meditation.

He doesn't float off into bliss. He doesn't become a monk. He doesn't even sit still very well. But what happens along the way is nothing short of transformation.

This book is for you if:

• You move fast, think big, and feel like your brain never shuts off

• Traditional meditation makes you anxious, frustrated, or bored

• You're high-functioning but secretly exhausted

• You've built a life that looks great on the outside but feels unsustainable inside

• You're seeking clarity without checking out-or fire without burnout

You won't find preachy advice or fluffy metaphors here. You'll find a gritty and honest narrative that mirrors the experience of living in a brain that won't sit still... until it learns how to stay.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, creative, executive, athlete, or anyone who thrives under pressure but longs for peace, The Inner War is your permission slip to stop running-and start listening.

Because stillness isn't weakness.

It's your strongest move yet.
