Think + Destroy

Michael de Vena is the co-founder of Think and Destroy, a platform for designing greater self-development to raise the consciousness of others through storytelling, evidence, theory, and first-person experience through the art of unlearning and destroy what no longer serves you. 

With every article and resource within Think and Destroy, the mission is to collectively go through the process of personal development as it occurs through systems of change rewired by action and accountability – period.

“Personal development occurs through systems of change rewired through action and accountability

About

Michael de Vena

My four decade journey led me to bear witness to an exhausting amount of options that offered services in the form of regurgitated self-development wisdom, philosophical banter, and positive psychology.

A long history involving trauma rooted in severe child abuse, addiction, and broken phases of development were in need of the missing links that required growth with brutal honesty through realization that my identity and moral code were not there.

I had no code because my code was broken.

We all have phases of development whether we realize it or not that require lifelong maintenance. We all get stuck in patterns that do not serve us and complicate our lives further.

Think and Destroy began as a place to continue sharing real-time process in walking with accountability in the most vulnerable way possible. To offer a platform with content based in first-person experience, research, theory, and evidence from both ends of the development spectrum and the grey areas in between.

Think and Destroy exists so methods of growth and healing that I know have worked for me may in turn do the same for someone else or inspire them to design a path of their own process. The language and modalities by which Think and Destroy offers these resources is non conventional, in that the intent is direct, fiercly accountability focused, and without tradional thoughts on all components.

Uncomfortability requires us to be focused on logic and reasoning so we may understand the traumas for what they are and rewire the brain in regards to them. This will challenge how we look at everything and make discoveries through neuroscientific methods that require that logic and reasoning.

It is possible for the light and shadow sides of trauma and healing to all live together in one mind and still acquire happiness without having all the answers.

I encourage you to do whatever it takes to learn to think and destroy all that no longer serves you.

I am grateful for you taking some of life’s valuable time to seek a little of that here.

Think + Action = Evolve
