I overcame deep depression, binge eating, porn addiction & extreme anxiety all at once.
Want to know the secret?
It wasn't hard & all it took was 3 simple practices...
What if you don’t lack discipline but instead lack real problems in your life?
Real problems that involve risk give you no choice but to be disciplined.
Was there ever a scene in James Bond where he got distracted & watched porn for a few minutes?
Never.
Because it’s weak behaviour & you know it.
Yet you continue to do it yourself?
How can you possibly respect yourself when you betray your ideals?
Nature is a natural anti-depressant.
Don’t seek man-made chemicals until the basics are in order.
Daily exercise, nature, sun, animals, gut friendly diet, meaningful goals & of course people who care for you.
Check these boxes first.
Your ancestors killed a live buffalo & brought it home to feed his family.
You order Taco Bell & spend the evening with your pixelated girlfriend.
It’s no wonder you are ashamed.
15 years of faithful relations + 1 moment of lust = marriage ruined.
20 years of honest business dealings + 1 lie = company stock tanked.
25 years of sobriety + 1 drink = relapse & downward spiral.
The past is gone, it’s what you do today that counts.
New thoughts require new energy sources.
When you feel uninspired or stuck, move your body
Get outside, run, lift weights & sweat.
You'll come back with a totally fresh mind.
Lift weights in the sun. Run on the beach. Buy organic foods. Prepare your own meals. Build healthy relationships. Keep your circle small. Set decade long goals. Get lost in deep work daily. Go to bed excited to wake up the next morning.
This is the ideal life.
