A Personal Introduction
Dear Helen,
This is a business proposal—and something more.
A gesture of good faith and genuine interest.
I know this is unconventional. I respect that your time is valuable.
I hope you'll give me a few minutes to explain why I went this far.
Why I Chose This Approach
Before anything else, I want to acknowledge: this is unconventional.
A stranger reaching out with a full proposal, a custom app, and a personal letter isn't the normal way people introduce themselves. I'm completely aware of that.
But I believe in courtship in the old-fashioned sense—demonstrating intent through action, not just words. When I see alignment worth exploring, I'd rather show up with something real than send a forgettable message that disappears in your inbox.
A Promise of Good Faith
Whether this leads to a conversation or not, I want you to know: this comes from a place of respect.
The business proposal stands on its own merit. The app is yours regardless—no strings attached. This personal section is simply my way of being honest about my intentions, because I believe you deserve transparency from the start.
I'm asking you to read this with an open mind. Not because I've earned it—we've never met. But because what I have to share might resonate with you in ways you don't expect.
Who I Am
Let me introduce myself properly:
- Queens, New York. Born and raised. Immigrant neighborhoods where everyone was grinding.
- Polish immigrant family. First-generation American. Parents who sacrificed everything.
- Divorced parents. Learning early that families aren't perfect, that love takes work, that you build your own stability.
- Real poverty. The kind that shapes you permanently. The kind that makes you hungry in ways comfortable people never understand.
Why I Mention This
I grew up in a small apartment with almost no natural light. Like a cage. Four walls and fluorescent lights. That kind of environment shapes you in ways that are hard to explain to people who grew up with backyards and windows.
Now that I have more life experience, I see how strongly that shaped my entire trajectory. There are levels to poverty. Levels to lived experience. Most people I come across in life—even successful ones—can't truly understand that particular weight.
I mention this because I believe shared context creates understanding. If your background is similar—and from what I can tell, it might be—then you already know what I mean without me having to explain it. You lived it too.
Everything I'm building now? Part of it is making up for that past life. Creating the light I never had.
The Path I Walked
The Evolution
- Blue collar beginnings — Warehouse jobs. Moving commercial gym equipment. I've felt hard work in my back and my hands.
- The first business attempts — A t-shirt company with my best friend. It didn't go far, but it taught us how to start.
- The Instacart grind — Survival mode during COVID. 6 AM alarms every day. There was something meditative about the hustle.
- The skill stack — While hustling, I was building skills. SEO. Google Ads. Meta Ads. Branding. Design. Every spare moment went into learning.
- The clients started coming — One referral led to another. The reputation grew. I went from survival mode to actually building something.
- The AI pivot — When AI arrived, I went all in. It amplified every skill I'd built before it.
- Now — Multiple ventures. Multiple partnerships. Everything converging.
When I look back at those early days and compare them to now, the contrast is real. But I never forget where I came from. That hunger is still in me. That foundation stays with me.
How I Approach Things
I lead with intellect and curiosity rather than ego.
My YouTube is full of business content—Alex Hormozi, Shark Tank episodes, Jim Rohn seminars. I listen to podcasts like Diary of a CEO while I work. That's what I find stimulating. That's my version of entertainment.
I spend more time on LinkedIn than any other social platform—not networking for jobs, but because that's where interesting conversations happen about building and scaling.
What I Nerd Out About
SEO. Advertising. Data. AI. Systems. Automation. These aren't just skills I picked up—they're genuine interests. I find fulfillment in making things more efficient. There's an elegance to a well-optimized system.
Most people find this boring. I find it fascinating.
On Humility
I have no ego.
Jiu-Jitsu beat it out of me. When you spend years getting submitted by people smaller than you, humility isn't a choice—it's a requirement. You learn that you don't know what you don't know. That there's always someone better. That skill beats size, and preparation beats talent.
But the humility goes deeper than the mats.
The Poverty Factor
Add to that the poverty background. The self-made journey. The years of struggle and uncertainty. Growing up without much has a way of keeping you grounded—you never forget what it felt like to have nothing.
All of it compounds into fundamental humility. The Jiu-Jitsu. The poverty. The climb from the bottom. When you've been humbled by life from multiple angles, ego becomes impossible to sustain.
How I Try to Show Up
I ask questions instead of making declarations. I'm genuinely curious about how things work, how people think, how problems can be solved.
That's the energy I'd bring to any interaction with you—someone interested in understanding your perspective, not someone trying to impress. Someone who leads with intellect, not ego.
The People Around Me
The people closest to me are entrepreneurs and builders.
I trained Jiu-Jitsu for years. My closest friends to this day came from the mats—black belts, competitors. But here's the thing: every single one of them is also a professional or business owner.
An Example
One of my close friends is 10 years older than me—we met through training. Today he owns multiple beauty supply businesses in Manhattan and has been in the industry for 30 years. He was one of the early people who discovered NYX Cosmetics before it became a global brand.
That's the caliber of relationship the mats brought into my life—connections built through sweat and mutual respect before we ever talked business.
My best friend is also my Jiu-Jitsu coach. We started our first business together. Another close mentor became my business coach and introduced me to opportunities I never would have found otherwise.
What Training Taught Me
On the mats, everyone starts equal. No posturing, no status games. You're judged by your mind, your energy, your character—not your background or your bank account.
That environment shaped how I evaluate people and build relationships. I look for substance over surface.
What I'm Building
I want to share what I'm working on—not to impress, but because I think you might find some of these genuinely interesting.
Current Ventures
Glamorous Beauty Supply
Working with my friend who has 30 years in the beauty industry. We're building out his brand with modern e-commerce and AI-powered customer experiences.
DEEPdormir
A healthcare technology venture focused on sleep apnea. Working with experienced partners on this one. The technology has potential applications beyond the initial focus.
Pizzeria AI System
An AI system that handles phone orders for restaurants—takes orders naturally, processes payment, sends to the kitchen. Watching a business streamline through something I built is deeply satisfying.
iNeedABrace
E-commerce in orthopedic supplies. Different industry, same principles—understanding customers, optimizing experiences, building systems that scale.
Why I'm Sharing This
These are active projects with real partners and real momentum. I share them because they represent how I think and what I spend my time on.
If any of this interests you—whether for collaboration, consulting, or just conversation—I'd genuinely enjoy exploring that. But there's no expectation. Just openness.
What Shaped My Thinking
I'm a student of people who've thought deeply about growth, meaning, and action:
The Rohn Influence
There was a season where I listened to Jim Rohn almost religiously. Every morning while working—incense burning, making my tiny apartment feel almost sacred. His voice became the soundtrack of a formative period in my life.
His words are ingrained in how I think now.
Why I'm Going Out of My Way
I want to be direct with you.
I respect your time. I'm selective about where I invest my energy. I don't typically put myself out there like this unless I genuinely believe there's meaningful potential.
So why am I going so far out of my way to reach out?
Because from what I can observe—your background, your work ethic, your values—I sense we might be meaningfully aligned. Not in a casual way, but in the deeper ways that matter for building something real.
What Drew My Attention
- Self-made. Built through effort, not inheritance.
- Growth-oriented. Continuously evolving.
- Substance over surface. Depth in how you present yourself.
- Immigrant roots. Understanding what it means to come from less.
I could be wrong. We've never spoken. But I believe alignment like this is rare enough to be worth the effort of reaching out properly.
The Shared Understanding
I'm Polish. You're Eastern European. There's a generational understanding that comes with that.
The weight of parents who sacrificed everything. The mixture of gratitude and pressure. The unspoken expectations. You don't have to explain this to someone who lived it—they just know.
Why Shared Context Matters
Most people I meet—even successful ones—come from different contexts. They worked hard, absolutely. But shared background creates a shorthand. A mutual understanding that doesn't need to be explained.
I believe that foundation matters for any meaningful connection. And I suspect we might have it.
What Drew Me Here
I came across your content and something stood out—the way you think, the way you've built your business, the substance beneath the surface.
It resonated with me in a way that doesn't happen often.
Genuine Appreciation
I appreciate people who build things through their own effort. Who carry weight gracefully. Who combine ambition with authenticity.
From what I can observe, you embody those qualities. That's not flattery—it's what drew my attention in the first place.
Instead of sending a forgettable message that would disappear in your inbox, I wanted to demonstrate interest through effort. That's the kind of person I am—I'd rather build something than just say something.
Courtship, Not Performance
I believe in courtship—the intentional process of getting to know someone with clear purpose and mutual respect. This proposal is my way of signaling serious intent.
Not to pressure you. Just to show you the caliber of effort I bring to things that matter to me.
How This Started
I came across your dating profile—and almost scrolled past. First impressions based on photos can be misleading.
Then I read your bio. The depth. The self-awareness. The realness beneath the polished exterior.
And then I saw it: you were looking for the Alex to your Leila.
That stopped me.
Why That Reference Mattered
You weren't listing superficial demands. You weren't looking for someone to take care of you. You were looking for a partner. Someone to build with. Someone who matched your ambition and understood the game.
That told me immediately we might be on the same wavelength.
The Hormozi Connection
Alex Hormozi's business philosophy has been influential to me. But honestly? I follow Leila more closely.
Her perspective on partnership, on building together, on what it actually takes to sustain ambition alongside intimacy—that's what resonates most with me.
What I Actually Aspire To
Not just business partnership. The actual relationship. The way they show up for each other. The mutual respect. The integration of ambition and intimacy.
Seeing that you referenced the same model made me think: maybe we're looking for the same thing.
Becoming Deserving First
But I didn't just reach out immediately. I couldn't.
When I found your profile, I realized something important: if someone like you existed—looking for exactly what I wanted to become—then I needed to be deserving of that attention first. I needed to earn the right to even ask for your time.
I Put the Dating Apps Down
I stopped swiping. Stopped looking. Stopped entertaining other options.
You set a standard. Suddenly, everyone else felt like a distraction from what actually mattered. Why would I settle for less when I'd seen what real alignment could look like?
So instead of chasing matches, I focused on becoming worthy of the standard you represented.
I spent months developing myself. Building skills. Strengthening my foundation. Getting my life aligned. Working toward the kind of person who could show up and genuinely offer value—not just ask for attention.
I hope this effort demonstrates that I've become someone worth your time. That's not false modesty—it's the honest motivation behind everything you're reading right now.
A Note on My Instagram
If you look at my Instagram (@xproscris), it hasn't been updated recently. But you'll see glimpses of who I am—the Polish background, the apartment life, the realness.
I've been so focused on building behind the scenes that I've neglected broadcasting. That's something I'm working on changing—strengthening my own beacon now that I'm ready.
Why I Believe This Is Worth Pursuing
Real resonance is rare. The kind where you don't have to translate yourself. Where the other person just gets it because they share enough context.
Most conversations stay surface-level because they have to. No shared background. No common language around building, sacrifice, or delayed gratification.
The Math of Finding Alignment
Think about the filtering that has to happen:
- Entrepreneurial mindset — already a small percentage
- Actual execution, not just dreams — smaller still
- Shared immigrant background — even smaller
- Growth-oriented and emotionally grounded — rare
Dating apps can't filter for this. There's no checkbox for "understands the weight of building alone."
What Becomes Possible
When two people at this level find each other—when the ambition aligns, when the discipline matches, when the vision resonates—something valuable becomes possible.
Two people who can strategize together. Who push each other higher instead of pulling each other down. Who speak the same language about building and growth.
That's what I'm curious to explore. Whether that potential exists between us.
The Entrepreneurial Path
Building something is often a solitary experience.
The long days. The decisions made alone. The moments when you wonder if anyone around you really understands what you're doing or why.
Very few people understand that weight. I believe I do, because I carry it too.
What I Recognize
From what I can observe, you've built something real through your own effort. You took your circumstances and turned them into fuel rather than excuses.
I don't know your full story—we haven't spoken. But I recognize the markers of someone who has done the work.
I don't know exactly where you are in your journey right now. Maybe you're scaling. Maybe you're pivoting. Maybe you're looking for what's next.
Wherever you are, I want you to know: I'd be genuinely excited to share what I've learned and built. My frameworks, my AI knowledge, my connections—all of it would be on the table.
What I'd Bring
Not to take from you—to contribute. To potentially mentor, learn from, or grow alongside you. The prospect of that kind of exchange is genuinely exciting to me.
And honestly? How rare it would be to find someone who actually understands the weight because they carry it too. Just to have that conversation would be worth something.
What I'm Looking For
If you know Alex and Leila Hormozi, you know the model I'm referencing.
They built an empire together. Not because one carried the other, but because they were true partners—each with their own strengths, their own vision, their own work ethic. Two forces that amplified each other.
You wrote that you're looking for the Alex to your Leila.
I'm looking for the same kind of partnership.
Not someone to complete me—I'm whole on my own. Not someone to save—you clearly don't need saving. Someone to build with. To grow alongside. To share both the challenges and the victories.
To Be Clear
The business alignment is interesting. The potential for collaboration is real. But the personal connection is what actually brought me here.
I'm drawn to what I've observed about how you think and how you carry yourself. The partnership vision is exciting, but the desire to actually know you as a person—that's the real motivation.
What I'm Actually Hoping For
I've talked about credentials. About philosophy. About alignment.
But let me be honest about what I actually want:
To know the real person.
Your mind. Your perspective. Your actual day-to-day. The person behind what I've observed from a distance.
I've seen what you project to the world, but I'm self-aware enough to know that's only part of the picture. Social media is curated. First impressions are incomplete.
I don't presume to know you. I'm curious to.
The business value I can offer is real. It stands on its own. But it's also the foundation for what I actually want: a genuine connection.
People Who Build
I write about people who burn with conviction—people who recognize each other because they're operating on a similar frequency. Builders. Creators. People who refuse to accept limitation.
From what I've observed, you seem to be one of those people.
"If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary."
— Jim Rohn
This approach is unusual. Most people wouldn't do this.
But I'm not interested in ordinary. And I suspect you aren't either.
The Moment We're In
We're living through an extraordinary period of technological change. AI is advancing faster than most people realize, and the gap between those who leverage these tools and those who don't is widening every day.
This is my area of deep expertise. And it's something I'd genuinely enjoy sharing with you.
What AI Actually Enables
AI allows people to do more with less. Tasks that took hours take minutes. Ideas become reality faster. Operations that required teams can be streamlined dramatically.
But here's what most people miss: the real gift isn't just productivity. It's time reclaimed.
Reclaiming What Matters
When your business runs more efficiently—when AI handles the repetitive, the tedious, the time-consuming—something shifts. You get hours back. Days back. Mental space back.
And that freed time can go toward the things that actually matter: life, relationships, growth, family, the pursuits that make the grind worthwhile in the first place.
The Real Value
I don't just want to help you scale your business. I want to help you reclaim the freedom to pursue what matters most—whatever that looks like for you.
More time to think. More space to breathe. More capacity for the things that can't be optimized—like connection, like meaning, like building a life beyond the work.
Self-Actualization: The Ultimate Possibility
This is where it gets deeper.
What Becomes Possible
Achieving your full potential is the greatest gift you can give yourself.
Self-actualization—becoming everything you're capable of becoming—isn't just personal success. It's the highest form of existence. It's what all the struggle is ultimately for. The summit that makes the climb worthwhile.
AI, used properly, becomes a tool for exactly this. It removes the friction. It amplifies your capabilities. It frees you to operate at your highest level—to shine your light as bright as possible, unconstrained by operational burden.
I want that for you. I want you to reach that profound level of success and fulfillment. To look at your life and know you expressed every ounce of potential you had.
The Kingmaker Philosophy
This is where Jim Rohn comes back in—and where my deepest values live.
"The greatest gift you can give somebody is your own personal development. I used to say, 'If you will take care of me, I will take care of you.' Now I say, 'I will take care of me for you, if you will take care of you for me.'"
— Jim RohnI believe in the Kingmaker principle—the idea that the highest achievement isn't your own success alone. It's enabling others to achieve beyond what they thought possible.
What I Want to Give
I want to be a Kingmaker in your life. To pour what I've built—frameworks, AI knowledge, connections, resources—into helping you reach heights you haven't even imagined yet.
I want you to prosper beyond your own imagination. That's the literal meaning of Proscris—helping the deserving achieve more than they thought possible.
A Quiet Confession
I'll be honest about something:
Part of my motivation is simple. If I help you achieve more with less—if AI amplifies your capabilities, if your business runs more efficiently—you'll have more time.
And I hope some of that reclaimed time might find its way to us getting to know each other.
Time for What Matters
Not rushed conversations between meetings. Not exhausted exchanges at the end of 12-hour days. But real time—to talk, to explore, to see what's possible between two people who might actually understand each other.
That's the quiet hope underneath all of this. To help you build the life and freedom that allows space for everything that matters—including, perhaps, seeing where this could go.
So yes, I want to teach you AI. Yes, I want to help you scale and optimize. Yes, I want to share everything I've built.
But underneath all of that? I just want us to have the time and space to discover what we could be.
Where I Am Right Now
I'm at a point in my life where I know who I am and what I want. The years of building, learning, and becoming have led to clarity.
I'm not looking for casual connections. I'm looking for something with real potential.
Clear Intentions
I believe in being direct about intentions rather than playing games. So here's mine: I'm looking for a genuine partner. Someone to build with over the long term.
If that's not what you're looking for, no hard feelings. But if it is—I'd like to explore whether we might be that for each other.
What You Can Expect From Me
I want to be clear about what I'm offering and who I am:
I Follow Through
This proposal itself is proof of how I operate. I don't send empty messages—I build things. I don't make vague promises—I deliver tangible value upfront.
The app works. The business proposal is real. This letter took serious time and thought. That's who I am in everything I do.
My Commitment to You
- No games. Direct communication. Clear intentions. I say what I mean.
- No pressure. One conversation is all I'm asking for. After that, you decide.
- No strings attached. The business proposal and app are yours regardless of your answer.
- Full respect. Your time, your boundaries, your pace—all honored completely.
What a Conversation With Me Looks Like
I'll show up prepared, present, and genuinely curious about you. Not trying to impress—trying to understand. Not performing—being real.
If there's chemistry, we explore it. If there isn't, we part respectfully and you still walk away with real business value. Either way, you win.
I believe in courtship—demonstrating intent through consistent action over time. This proposal is the first demonstration. If there's mutual interest, there would be more: the same intentionality, the same effort, the same follow-through.
That's my word. And I stand behind it completely.
What I'm Asking For
I'm not asking for commitment. I'm asking for consideration.
A Conversation
Coffee. A call. A walk.
One chance to see if what I sense holds up in person.
I'm Happy to Come to You
I'm in Lindenhurst. You're in Brooklyn. I'm willing to make the trip—whatever works best for you.
Because from where I stand, this is worth exploring.
Self-Aware to the End
I know that real connection has to be built in person, over time. I know that what I've observed from a distance is incomplete.
That's exactly why I'm not asking for more than a conversation. Just a chance to see if there's something worth continuing.
Let It Unfold Naturally
There's more I'd like to share and learn. But some things should be discovered through conversation, not declared in advance.
If you give me a chance, I'll show up fully. Honest. Curious. Open to wherever it leads.
No pressure. No expectations beyond that first meeting.
Whenever you're ready—or if you're ready—I'm here.
With respect, genuine interest, and hope for what could be,
Robert
Founder, Proscris
Lindenhurst, New York
P.S. — The business proposal is at proscris.com/proposals/topfoxx. The app I built is live at proscris.com/apps/topfoxx. Both are real. Both are yours regardless of how you respond to this personal letter.
P.P.S. — Thank you for reading this far. Whatever you decide, I appreciate that you gave me your time. That alone means something.
Written with intention. Sent with respect. Open to whatever comes next.
