About Your Chief Leaper

Leaping isn’t easy. It is dirty. Risky. Fraught with mistakes. Leap anyway. I did. I do. You should too.

I believe in God.

I believe in bravery.

I believe in guts.

I believe in risks.

I believe in love.

I believe in freedom, and with that, freedom of speech.

I believe in being humble, because, sometimes, that’s the bravest, boldest, gutsiest, riskiest, strongest, most faith-driven action there is. Just being is leaping.

I speak freely and sometimes that requires bravery, but I have faith in God, so sometimes, I must be braver than I’d prefer. I love winning and sometimes, that takes guts. I might not always win, and sometimes I might lose, but that’s the risk.

Failure happens and so does victory. Sometimes, neither is in our control, but we must try anyway.


Who Am I?

​I’m Anthony Trendl, a writer out of Atlanta. I write speeches for clients who take risks and want to say something well. Beyond that, I also write silly short stories and drink lots of coffee (here’s a coffee pic).

I created this site out of my own leaping, after reading a Samuel Tombs quote regarding Brexit. I’ve no opinion in that matter. I thought “leap into the unknown,” grooved with me as a concept.
