The Granddad Chronicles

August 18, 2026

Lots of life changes are coming over here with the Absolute Intent project, but the most exciting one is The Granddad Chronicles.

In just a couple of weeks, I’ll be a first-time granddad!

Most dudes my age have been grandfathers for a solid few years now, but I’ll be a rookie in a very short time. At the end of last year, becoming a granddad wasn’t anywhere on my 2026 bingo card. Then my son stopped by with his beautiful partner to deliver the news to me and my better half.

To say I’m stoked is an understatement.

I can’t wait to have a little sidekick for life’s adventures.

So, what exactly is The Granddad Chronicles?

Basically, it’ll be a segment of the Absolute Intent project where I write about my experiences as a grandfather—the adventures, the lessons, the things I get completely wrong, and everything else that comes with figuring out this new role.

I’ll try to make it amusing enough that I don’t bore everyone with sappy stories or constantly proud granddad moments.

But rest assured, there will be plenty of those moments to rattle on about too.

Stick around if you’d like to follow along. And you’re absolutely welcome to poke fun at the rookie granddad in the comments.

DISCLAIMER: I’m not an expert in anything. These musings are simply a case study to hold myself accountable to living intentionally. I want to be the best version of myself.

It is my belief that if I focus on the five pillars I developed for myself, finding a balanced life should become easier. My musings are based on my own life experiences and my desire to live with intention.

I welcome thoughtful comments.
