Life
is art
Thank You for being here.
I’m Jordan Paris.
A little about me
I am:My entire life has been a case in deciphering signal from noise.One of my first phrases was “‘sat noise?” for “what’s that noise?”When I was four, I was in occupational therapy because I was overwhelmed by sensory input.My parents, the best in the world, were trying to help a four-year-old for whom the volume was just turned all the way up.That sensitivity made life difficult. It's also a most sensational gift for experiencing Life:Feeling.And isn’t feeling what Life is about?I’ve spent the 25 years since then learning to sit with myself.Listening.Feeling It out.Identifying my unique signal, scanning for what resonates, figuring what God wills me to do - what I call my golden thread Tuning my chords to that.And ultimately,Turning the noise into music.In 2021, I burned out from the traditional platforms and retreated into a quiet era of building. Emerging from that era with the urge to share again, I have been searching for the right space for my expression, though I haven't found the space that feels right for what I want to share and how I want to share it.So I decided on creating my own space.This is that space.This website is me playing the instrument that is me, pulling on my golden thread. I'm both enjoying pulling on It, and enjoying watching It unspool.The form this site takes is simple. I’ve organized my writings over the past decade into chapters of my life, called collections. Each collection begins with a description. Under that appears its thread: writings pieced together in chronological order from start to finish of that chapter.In the conversations tab is the podcast I started back in 2018.I'll add more as I feel it.I'm doing this for me, because it's what I want to do, because this is my unique expression, the singing of my song.Getting it all downFeverishlyGetting it all outBecause my entire purpose is to share the music within me in the hope that the world - consciousness - is better for it. I believe it is.At the heart of all this is my worldview that (your) Life is art.And so here I am, feeling It.And I hope you feel It too What else to do?
- an entrepreneur
I've been an entrepreneur since I was 19-years-old. My company (https://www.zeusos.co/) builds project management systems for marketing agencies and I do advisory work for a select few founders.
- a real estate investor
I own some rentals and have done some renovation projects that have been channels to express the colors of my soul.See here - https://www.instagram.com/p/DaVZrlhkQib/?img_index=1Here - https://www.instagram.com/p/C-dzlIEvsNa/?img_index=1And some sprinkles here - https://www.instagram.com/p/DRAcAhqjo9s/?img_index=1It has also been the source of some of the greatest, most complex challenges I have ever faced.
- a counselor
I counsel/advise a select few founders whom I only believe in with every fiber of my being. My north star is gently guiding them towards their north star.If they come in overwhelmed, I listen, listen, and then ask them some simple questions to help them zoom out and see the view for themselves. In these sessions, it's hearing their breathing change by the end that tells me I did my job well.In more ordinary sessions, we conversate, going this way and that, often following a winding road that seems to be going nowhere, until eventually we hit on something and they leave knowing exactly what needs to be done. In these sessions, it's hearing what I call "the strength of clarity" in their voice by the end that does it.And then the backbone of our sessions are our 3-year, 1-year, and quarterly goals AKA 'rocks'. We follow the EOS system wherein the quarterly goals roll up into the annual goals, and the annual goals roll up into the 3-year picture.Simply: I listen and ask simple questions to help them see things for themselves, draw their own conclusions, and ultimately build a business - and life - that they want and are consciously designing.This is immensely rewarding work. It's a great honor, pleasure, and privilege to be a part of their journeys, as well as a great responsibility - and not one I take lightly.
- a creator / curator / chef (of Life)
I am not defined by the entrepreneur box, nor the real estate box, nor the counselor box.Ultimately, I am a Creator, as You Are.If one could ever (and we can't) ascribe one word to what We All Are,That would be It:Creator.And I often think, that creation is curation.Like maybe there is one big creator up there somewhere in the sky (https://open.spotify.com/track/2TjdnqlpwOjhijHCwHCP2d?si=c42d4f32f4024a8c) and we are all curators down here curating the various elements of creation into various forms.So yeah, I'm down here cheffing it up, putting together what I like!

- Growth Mindset UniversityI can't say what compelled me to do this, but in March of 2018, I decided to write a book. I spent all day, every day, holed up in the windowless den of my apartment... writing. Just writing. I wrote the entire book in 29 days. On April 22, 2018, at 20-years-old, I published a 184-page, 40,000-word book titled Growth Mindset University, available in paperback on Amazon.5 days earlier, on April 17, 2018, I published 3 minutes of audio titled "Welcome to the University of Life" on a podcast by the same name, Growth Mindset University.The book was interesting. Where did it come from? I'm not
- My Hello World Moment: JordanParisHealth.comThe first expansionMy sort of coming out. I spent that first semester at FGCU in fall of '16 as an "aspiring entrepreneur" - which I had included in my Instagram bio along with "Don't make a living; design a life" - which are words that today I can only ascribe to heavenly guidance, and destiny. My vision started coming to life in the summer of 2016, as I transitioned from high school to college. I spent a good part of the summer in sunny Westwood, Los Angeles, learning the ins and outs of the personal training business under the tutelage of celebrity trainer Steve Jordan. Steve has trained the likes of Tobey
- Taking NotesIn my senior year of high school, I read Tony Robbins' Awaken the Giant Within. I still remember looking up from page 4, laying on the bed in my room, my brain turning on - in a way - for the first time.Light switch.
