Member-only story
One year ago, I decided to attempt 12 30-day experiments over the course of 12 months from drinking more water to taking cold showers and counting calories. Each of them tapped into a different area of self-development that I was curious about what I hadn’t anticipated. When I started was just how difficult that process would be and how much it would teach me about building habits.
What I can say that I’ve learned is, that breathwork is really hard. There are some days when I’m just not in the mood. My brain will come up with all these excuses for why I shouldn’t. So I want to make it as easy as possible and do the most painful thing. For a switch at the moment for me is cardio.
I want to get more tactical and give you actionable advice on how to get your personal habits to stick in a couple of months. I first got interested in self-development back in my junior year of college but really started as me just trying to get better at talking to girls. Led me to change literally every aspect of my life. I started going to the gym daily gaining over 20 pounds of muscle in under a year. I learned everything I could about personal finance. Eventually paying off six figures of student debt. And while I never really did figure out how to talk with women.
So, while it might be easy to look at my life now and think that I’ve always had my shit together. I truly haven’t. If you met me years ago, you’d have met a scrawny kid who was bad at talking with girls. Who was terrible with money? But I did have one thing…
