Your Mindset Is Your Reality

A Memoir of Addiction, Transformation, and the Magic of Mushrooms

What if the rock bottom you’ve been avoiding… was actually your breakthrough?

At twenty-nine, John Borden had everything on paper—career, relationship, social life—but inside he was crumbling. Years of numbing with alcohol, cocaine and medication left him disconnected from purpose, emotion, and self. When a moment of clarity forced him to face the truth, he made a decision that would change everything: to confront his mind head-on.

Your Mindset Is Your Reality is John’s firsthand account of transformation—from addiction and anxiety to discipline, presence, and power. Through psilocybin-assisted self-reflection, relentless physical training, and raw honesty, he begins rebuilding the connection between body, mind, and spirit. What starts as a desperate search for healing becomes a radical re-engineering of identity.

The story closes at the moment that transformation takes root—the point where a broken man begins to believe he can do hard things again. What follows (beyond these pages) are the kinds of challenges most people would never dare attempt… but this is the book about how he became the man who could.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between who you are and who you know you could be, this book will help you bridge that gap—and remind you that your mindset truly shapes your reality.

This book is a masterpiece that combines the world of psychedelics with pushing the limits of what we believe the human body is capable of, John Borden is an absolutely incredible person, and this book gives such an insight into his life, and how he utilized psychedelics to change his life, and create life worth living, and earn a remarkable list of accomplishments. Before reading this book, I was going through a bit of a rough patch, and lacked the motivation and drive to really get out there and accomplish anything outside of my day to day. As I read through it, I felt as if I was right there with John and felt as if I was a part of his journey.

I am also diving into the world of psychedelics, and it is very new to me… I am extremely fascinated by it, and how it can change an individual’s life for the better. After finishing the book, I felt motivated and inspired to change my life, and start attacking the day, every day. The title of this book “Your Mindset is Your Reality” is beyond perfect. After reading this book, you will understand how accurate that is. Your life can be exactly what you want it to be, you just have to be willing to do what you need to get there. It starts with your mindset, and when you have that in check, your life will change. The mindset you have in your life, creates your reality. Sometimes you have to be a little Pyscho, get out of your comfort zone, and don’t be scared to push your limits. Never give up, and never settle…your mindset is your reality. Now, it’s up to you to take the first step. Listen to this book, change your mindset, and change your life. Thank you John for writing this book, and helping to change my life, and change the lives of many others. Keep crushing it. You are a true inspiration.

Truly an Incredible Read

I love the fact that John narrated and read his own book for the audio version. I have a deep respect for authors that do this.

This story spoke to me in a way that I was not prepared for. I have been researching psilocybin since my father used it five or six years ago to break free from his alcohol addiction and to wean himself off of all of his anxiety and depression medications. My father became a completely different person after being an addict for 40 years And I truly believe that mushrooms played a huge part in his transformation.

I had the pleasure of meeting John Borden last year and when I found out that he had written a book about his journey through drug and alcohol addiction and his experiences with psilocybin, I couldn't wait to read it. And let me tell you! it is quite a compelling story. John opens his heart and tells you the raw, unfiltered truth about himself. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

I found so many relatable parallels between John's life and my own, as I'm sure that most people who have had any type of bout with substance abuse or addiction would. John has a way of making you feel like you're not alone in your struggle and that he is someone that understands

This book is certainly worth the read!

Raw, unfiltered, vulnerability....

Hey Audible!

I wrote this book with the intent of bringing deep, intimate details of my life to others. My hope was that by sharing, you may be able to benefit — may be able to gain some strength and insight for your own journey.

The response I’ve received, primarily selling my book in person, has been incredible. So many readers have shared that my writing has touched them, helped them reach a new understanding of themselves and their potential in life.

I hope that you are the next one to feel this, and the chain of growth and met potential continues to grow!

(If Audible is gonna make me buy my own audiobook, you bet your ass I’m gonna leave a review for myself 🤣)

I poured my heart into this
