In this solo episode of the ProActivators Podcast, Gabriel "The ProActivator" delivers a passionate wake-up call about the most valuable resource we often neglect: time.

He shares a raw, personal realization from this year — that despite feeling productive, much of his time was misaligned with his goals. And like most people, he was caught in distractions disguised as meaningful activity.

But once Gabriel became intentional with how he spent every hour — tracking, budgeting, and guarding his time — everything changed.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why social media and news are engineered to steal your time
• The mindset shift that helps you say no to distractions
• Why time management is spiritual, mental, and strategic
• How to build a high-frequency lifestyle, brick by brick
• Why greatness isn’t loud — it’s consistent

You’ll also hear how Gabriel uses daily time audits, avoids the endless scroll, and posts with purpose — all while building a mindset that elevates him far above the noise.

💡 “When you own your time, you own your life.”

This episode is for anyone feeling stuck, distracted, or behind — and ready to take full ownership of their future.

Hey, this is Gabriel, the ProActivator, welcoming you to the ProActivators Podcast! I was thrilled to interview Charles Allen, co-founder of CrossFit MIA in Miami. Despite some video glitches (audio’s still solid—sorry about that!), this episode dives into Charles’s journey as an athlete turned entrepreneur. I wrote this description to share my excitement about his ProActivator mindset with you all.

Key Highlights:

• Athletic Beginnings: Charles played sports from a kid through college football, earning Freshman of the Year. I loved how a high school coach calling him out for skipping weights sparked his lifelong habit.
• CrossFit MIA Journey: I learned how Charles and Zach turned a 1200-square-foot space and $9,000 into a thriving gym since 2012, growing from 12 members to a competitive community.
• Business Challenges: Charles shared how the first years were a hobby with $12,000 revenue, but a mindset shift seven years ago, with a business coach’s help, fueled growth. Starting today takes $50,000+!
• Habits for Success: I was inspired by his discipline over motivation, applying athletic work ethic to business. Delegating tasks like social media has been key for him.
• Personal Growth: With a family and a focus on financial freedom, Charles uses a “4K Weeks” calendar to track life’s brevity—I loved his plan to hike Angel’s Landing with his son. He’s also into Bitcoin!
• Advice for Entrepreneurs: Charles told me to invest in myself, take risks when young, and learn from successful people—pure ProActivator wisdom.
