The concept of "Addition by Subtraction."
Most people are the same as they were last year. They are only older, but fundamentally the same handbrakes are holding them back from the dream. Sadly for most people years pass and the dreams fade, the guy lives the same groundhog day until it's over.
Here is how to combat that and make a significat shift.
For example, going from hardcore anxious attachment to being 100% detached and happy, finding your center, and completely getting over the attachment and the need. Or in finances, going from $5k a month to $50k and more.
This shift happens in a very small percentage of guys, and it happens by removing the blocks. Stopping your worst mindset habit THAT ARE HOLDING YOU HOSTAGE will change your life much faster than starting new good habits. Adding more will not save you from what you refuse to stop. Fix the leak before filling the bucket.
Most common bad habits you have to find in yourself and remove:
Obsessing over women – Believing "I need a hot woman" or "I need a woman next to me so I feel good, so I feel complete."
Having negative beliefs about self or life – "I cannot make changes. This is it. This is my life. I am stuck in one location/profession/relationship/financial bracket; I can never do better than what I have done in the past."
It is possible to move forward. With a few shifts over the next six months, you will be living a life you cannot even imagine. Mindset determines everything while most people's mindset is rock hard. Identify the internal handbrakes holding you back.
Write down your list of "Glass Ceiling" beliefs:
Financial: Why am I not cashing out $1M a year or more? What belief keeps me maxed at my current income?
Fulfillment: Why is my life satisfaction not at 100%? What am I settling for that drains my joy?
Women: Why am I not at 100%? What am I settling for that drains my joy?
Identity: What stories do I tell myself about why I can’t change? (e.g., "I’m stuck here," "I’m an anxious person," or "I've already hit my peak.")
The Leak: What is the one worst habit or obsession I refuse to stop that is currently sabotaging my progress?
