  • So, I recently took one of those personality tests — you know, the ones that tell you why you’re awesome and exhausting at the same time.

    Turns out, I’m an ENTJ-A — aka The Commander.

    That’s right. Natural-born leader. Big-picture thinker. Driver of progress. Maker of lists. Keeper of the flame. Chaos organizer. Motivational speaker… at the breakfast table.

    And, apparently… occasional emotional bulldozer.

    (Oops.)

    ⚔️ Who Is This Guy at Home?

    You’d think this “Commander” personality only shows up at work or in business, right?

    Oh no, my friend.

    At home, it means:

    ✅ I’m the one with the vision — thinking where we’re going, how we’re growing, and why the family budget spreadsheet is color-coded.

    ✅ I’m fiercely loyal — if you’re in my circle, I will fight for you, lift you up, and sometimes drive you absolutely nuts because I believe in you.

    ✅ I push for improvement — not because I’m dissatisfied, but because I see the potential, and baby, I want it to shine.

    But let’s be real:

    ⚡ I can be impatient — like, “Why are we still talking about this? We made a plan 12 seconds ago!”

    ⚡ I prioritize tasks over connection (“I love you! Now help me fix the Wi-Fi router.”)

    ⚡ I wrestle with softness — vulnerability isn’t my native language, but I’m learning to say “I’m here” without following it up with “and here’s a 5-step fix.”

    🌿 The Commander’s Family Creeds

    Here’s the code I’m trying to live by — call it my Homefront Survival Manual.

    1️⃣ Loyalty Above All

    If you’re mine, you’re protected. You’re seen. You’re loved — even when I’m pacing the house muttering about the thermostat settings.

    2️⃣ Honesty with Heart

    I’ll tell you the truth, but I’ll work on wrapping it in kindness… and maybe fewer dad jokes.

    3️⃣ Growth Together

    We rise as a team. We stumble forward. We learn. And sometimes we cry-laugh at how ridiculous we all are.

    4️⃣ Love in Action

    I show love not just through plans and solutions — but through time, presence, and occasionally letting someone else hold the damn remote.

    🚀 How I Move Us Forward

    Set goals as a family. (No, “survive the weekend” doesn’t count — okay, sometimes it does.) Hold us accountable with love. (Gentle push… okay, sometimes a slightly aggressive motivational speech.) Solve what’s solvable. (And learn to hold space for what’s not.) Model resilience. (Because life’s gonna hit — and I’m here to show how to get back up, sweaty but smiling.) Celebrate independence. (I don’t need clones — I want you to be your own badass self.)

    💬 A Message to My People

    Hey fam, if you’re reading this — here’s your inside scoop.

    I know I can be intense. I know I can overdo, overthink, and over-plan.

    But under all that?

    It’s just love. Fire. Loyalty. And a deep, unstoppable desire to see you thrive.

    So thanks for riding this rollercoaster with me.

    Call me out when I need it. Laugh with me. Walk with me.

    Remind me sometimes the best way forward is to just be here together, right now.

    Commander out aka Saint Dirty Face. ❤️🔥🤘 😎

    🎸 Final Anthem

    “Lead with fire.

    Love with action.

    Laugh at yourself often.

    And remember — your family is your greatest legacy.”
