Time Is Our Most Valuable Resource

The sooner we realize that time is finite, the sooner we can begin to live a life of true fulfillment. This past weekend, I attended the funeral of a 12-year-old boy who lost his battle with cancer. It was an incredibly difficult service, especially since I’ve known the family my entire life. As I sat there, my heart went out to them, and I couldn’t help but reflect on the unimaginable grief they must be feeling. As I left the funeral home, I couldn’t shake the thought that the only thing that truly matters in life is the time we have left with the people we love. Time is our most precious resource, and if you speak to anyone older than you, they’ll often express the same regret: a wish to have more time, to turn back the clock, to relive moments they can never get back.

The idea is that when you consume certain nutrients—particularly protein and carbohydrates—can have a significant impact on your performance, muscle growth, fat loss, and overall health.

Interview with Brian Mazza

Founder of HPLT

After spending many years in the hospitality industry, I found myself feeling unfulfilled. I longed to reconnect with the energy and passion of my D1 soccer days, so I decided to merge my love for events, personal connections, and fitness. My goal was to create a space that combined all of these elements to foster a sustainable community. The vision for HPLT has always been to begin with summits, then expand into investments, a performance club, and a marketing company.
