Synchronicity – Love and Miracles
What if the people you meet, and even the dreams that visit you, aren’t coincidences at all? In this episode of Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick, The Dragon takes you inside a true story from his upcoming book Makes Sense, where fate, love, and the mysterious “Omen Frequency” converge in a moment that defies logic.

After seven years alone, JC meets the woman who will change everything, and discovers that the daughter he’s been dreaming of for years already exists in her life. Through this unbelievable encounter, he explores how life’s hidden patterns reveal themselves when we finally tune into the frequency beneath the noise.

This episode is a meditation on faith, timing, and the awareness that turns randomness into revelation. Because love and miracles aren’t found, they’re noticed.

Welcome to the uprising of the sleepwalking masses, where confusion dies and progress thrives.

Somewhere along the way, humanity traded its hunger for comfort—and in doing so, tamed the tiger within. In this episode, Dr. JC Doornick (The Dragon) takes you on a journey from the streets of post-earthquake Haiti to the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, exploring how society, culture, and convenience have softened our edge, silenced our will to power, and lulled us into complacency.

Through stories, philosophy, and reflection, you’ll rediscover Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch—the human who dares to rise above conformity, reclaim meaning, and say yes to life even in the storm. This is not about judgment. It’s about remembering who we are, what we’re capable of, and what it takes to awaken the untamed creator within.

Because the world doesn’t need more comfort, it requires more courage. The tiger’s still there—waiting for you to let it out of its cage.

It's called a GAME STATE REALITY. Many brilliant people believe we are living in a simulation. More specifically, some sort of video game. What's interesting is that we can't prove we are not, so the Dragon is all over that!!! Let's examine our game state reality.

You 3.0 – Breaking Free from the Illusion of Comfort - Spotting and Capturing Windows of Opportunity

There are moments in life when the atmosphere shifts—when a diagnosis, a breakup, a failure, or even a quiet reflection stares you down with a choice: stay the same or step into something radically new. I call these moments windows of opportunity—temporary portals that invite you to rise into a version of yourself you’ve never met before.

In this episode, I share what I’ve learned about spotting these windows, what it takes to move through them before they close, and why You 3.0 is not just an upgrade—it’s a rebirth. Drawing on my own health journey and the wisdom of mentors like Dr. Pat Gentempo, I unpack the three phases of seizing a window:

The Spark of Opportunity – when motivation feels high and the timing seems perfect (but won’t last).

The Crux of Commitment – the struggle point where most quit, but where transformation truly begins.

Integration – the moment extraordinary habits fuse into identity, and the new you becomes non-negotiable.

Along the way, we’ll expose the “Little Liar” that whispers excuses, explore why comfort is the most seductive trap, and reflect on what it really takes to push past survival mode (You 1.0) and even beyond the illusion of “good enough” (You 2.0).

Because You 3.0 isn’t a goal. It’s a place you’ve never been—a new identity forged in decision, follow-through, and the courage to step through the window before it shuts.

Dragon Thoughts: Windows of opportunity aren’t random. They’re tests. They don’t ask if you want change—they demand to know if you’re ready to become it.
