disappear and come back unrecognizable in 30 days (full guide)
By Daniel Barada
Summary
## Key takeaways - **Thoughts Follow Evidence**: You don't always change your life by thinking differently first. Sometimes you can change your life by behaving differently long enough for your brain to update its internal assumptions about who you are. [00:49], [01:01] - **30 Days Disrupts Identity**: 30 days is such a powerful window. It's long enough to disrupt your old identity loops, but short enough that your mind doesn't panic and self-sabotage. [01:48], [01:50] - **ABTH Goal Framework**: ABTH stands for Actual, Becoming, Timeline, Habits. It gives your brain certainty, direction, and pressure by mapping current reality, defining your next identity, setting a fixed timeline, and installing bridging habits. [09:25], [10:50] - **Physical Cues Anchor Identity**: Physical cues shape your identity faster than thoughts do because physiological changes create internal evidence that you're becoming someone different. Every rep, every step, every clean meal sends a message to your brain that you're operating at a different level. [19:40], [19:49] - **Environment as Path of Least Resistance**: Your surroundings shape your behavior far more than your intentions do. Design your life so the path of least resistance leads towards your goals, not away from them. [31:26], [31:33]

All right, hello and welcome to this training. If you're seeing this, then
training. If you're seeing this, then it's most likely December 1st and there's about 30 days until the end of the month, which means there's exactly 30 days in which you can use to
basically put yourself on a trajectory to completely change your life in 2026.
So, with that said, as you can see from the title, what we're going to be covering today is how to become unrecognizable in 30 days. And as you can see from the overview, what we're going to be talking about more specifically is the behavioral reset
goals, the 30-day overhaul, environmental lockdown, and input starvation, the review, and then your action items for the day or the next few days. So, with that said, let's get
days. So, with that said, let's get started and talk about the behavioral reset. So, there is a single principle
reset. So, there is a single principle that people misunderstand their entire lives. You don't always change your life
lives. You don't always change your life by thinking differently first. Sometimes
you can change your life by behaving differently long enough for your brain to basically update its internal assumptions about who you are. Now,
thoughts follow evidence. Identity
follows action. Confidence follows
proof. The person you believe yourself to be today is nothing more than a pattern of repeated behaviors that your brain got used to. So, when the behavior shift, the identity starts dissolving
and a new one starts to take its place.
Now the nervous system changes when it gets repeated signals that the old version of you is no longer in charge.
When your actions stop matching your previous patterns, the brain stops reinforcing them because they no longer serve a function. So physical actions send data to the brain, not just the
other way around. Which is why acting difference differently can actually force an internal recalibration. Over
time, all these physical cues build a new emotional baseline, which then builds a new mental narrative or a new self-image or a new self-concept, whatever you want to call it, which
eventually becomes how you see yourself.
And this is why 30 days is a such a powerful window. It's long enough to
powerful window. It's long enough to basically disrupt your old identity and your old identity loops, but short enough that your mind doesn't panic and self- sabotage. So the old identity it's
self- sabotage. So the old identity it's oxygen supply because you stop feeding it with familiar behaviors and what replaces that oxygen is simple repetition which slowly anchors a new
identity into the nervous system. So
once you understand this the next step is really to understand how to cut out the behaviors that basically keep your old self alive so that there's room for a new one to form. So before you build anything you clear the debris, right?
Reinvention always has to begin with some form of subtraction. It removes the hidden anchors that quietly pull you backward. You're not adding discipline
backward. You're not adding discipline yet. You're not adding any new habits.
yet. You're not adding any new habits.
You're simply removing what drains you, distracts you, or destabilizes you so that you can build from a clean clean slate. Essentially, you can't expect
slate. Essentially, you can't expect momentum if your daily rituals and everything you do on a on a daily basis completely contradicts your goals for the next 30 days. So, the first move is
removing everything that keeps you tied to the identity that you're trying to outgrow. So you start by eliminating the
outgrow. So you start by eliminating the habits that directly erode your capacity to execute. And these are the obvious
to execute. And these are the obvious culprits, but also they are usually the ones that you defend out of habit. So
you need to completely cut out things such as alcohol, junk food, weird sleep patterns, late night dopamine binges, and repetitive scrolling. These are just the basics, and all of them drain your
cognitive bandwidth more than you actually realize. So cutting it just
actually realize. So cutting it just doesn't work unless you swap the void with something neutral. Otherwise,
you'll just slip back into doing those things. So, for example, you can replace
things. So, for example, you can replace uh snacks with water or uh over stimulation and scrolling on your phone with just a little bit of silence or reading books for example. So, removing
the destructive triggers will in general reduce the emotional roller coasters that and brings your nervous system basically back to a calm baseline. And
you also need to clear any physical reminders of the old identity like any clutter, messy spaces, digital chaos.
You can even throw out or give to charity some clothes and items in general. Just get rid of as much as
general. Just get rid of as much as possible uh in those 30 days. When your
physical world is clean, your brain spends less energy trying to orient itself. So a simple environment will
itself. So a simple environment will just reduce the friction so that taking positive action becomes easier and more automatic than not. So once the destructive habits are gone, you just
need to look at the habits that aren't necessarily harmful but still slow your momentum down. So first you should
momentum down. So first you should shrink the behaviors that aren't hurting you directly but keep you scattered and unfocused. So entertainment that numbs
unfocused. So entertainment that numbs you for example or conversations that dilute your ambition certain people in your life. And if you want to learn more
your life. And if you want to learn more about this you can see the previous video I made. And any activities that feel productive but aren't actually really moving you closer to anything meaningful. All of them need strict
meaningful. All of them need strict boundaries. So decide when and how much
boundaries. So decide when and how much you consume. And you can set specific
you consume. And you can set specific windows for consumption rather than allowing it to bleed into your productive hours. And try to make sure
productive hours. And try to make sure that you track how much time you actually spend on these things so that you can see where the real leaks are.
And make sure your allocation serves your goals first before allowing space for low value activities. Now, by
reducing, you'll be able to stop accidental self-sabotage through overstimulation. Also try to reduce the
overstimulation. Also try to reduce the number of micro decisions you make daily so that the brain doesn't burn out on nonsense. So for example, you can batch
nonsense. So for example, you can batch tasks or prepare routines in advance and cut any unnecessary choices. A
streamlined day in general will free up mental energy for the habits you're about to build. Now after removing and reducing, you finally created the space to introduce small shifts that actually
support your goals. Now you can fill the gaps with upward pulling behaviors.
These don't obviously they don't need to be like intense or something like that.
You shouldn't be throwing yourself into the deep end immediately. They simply
need to tilt you into the right direction. So replace any reactive
direction. So replace any reactive mornings with more structured ones, for example. Replace nighttime dopamine
example. Replace nighttime dopamine binges with rituals that are actually calming. These replacements will just
calming. These replacements will just give your brain a clear signal of what the new identity actually values. And
after a while, the new behaviors will start feeling more natural than the old ones. Now every low value action needs
ones. Now every low value action needs to get swapped for something that reinforces discipline even in small ways. So you can trade endless scrolling
ways. So you can trade endless scrolling for reading like I said earlier or trade reality shows for silence or classical music etc or for an actual for example
instead of watching a reality show you can just go a step backwards and just watch a documentary. So these upgrades just will stack quietly and quickly because they don't really require a lot
of willpower, just awareness of what you're actually doing. Now behavior is one of the most important aspects as to how identity is built. So your brain believes what you repeatedly demonstrate
and do. So when you stop acting like the
and do. So when you stop acting like the old you, your mind stops identifying with the old you. It's that simple. So
identity becomes a trailing effect, not necessarily a starting point. Most
people try to change who they are first and then behave accordingly, which obviously that can work. We do a lot of that with our uh private clients. But in
these 30 days, you're basically trying to flip the whole thing. You're trying
to do all of that work in a shorter amount of time. So in these 30 days, you need to flip that order. You behave
differently while still feeling like your old self, and eventually the gap closes. So every action you take sends a
closes. So every action you take sends a signal to your brain about who you're becoming. When your actions contradict
becoming. When your actions contradict your old habits for long enough, the identity built on these habits collapses. And so once the identity
collapses. And so once the identity begins shifting and changing, decision-making becomes a bit easier because you feel internally aligned. And
as your identity adjusts, you'll feel uncomfortable basically doing the old uh the things the old way because they no longer really match who you are becoming or who you are in those 30 days. And
you'll notice friction where there used to be comfort and eventually the new behaviors will just feel natural. and
the old behaviors will feel more foreign. Now once that identity starts
foreign. Now once that identity starts shifting, the only thing that really locks it in is repetition and consistency. So the nervous system
consistency. So the nervous system updates through frequency. You don't
need some crazy monklike discipline. You
just need reliable follow through. And
when you perform the same behaviors repeatedly across consistent conditions, your brain basically rewires. So over
time, you become someone who acts automatically in alignment with the identity you're actually building. So
daily repetition will build familiarity and familiarity will build stability and the more you repeat a behavior the less resistance your mind will generate and what once felt like effort eventually
becomes your baseline and starts to feel way more natural and every day you stick to your behaviors you vote for your future self. So completing the behaviors
future self. So completing the behaviors builds trust in your own reliability and that trust will lead to belief and that belief will lead to internal certainty.
Now, consistency eventually shifts from something you're doing into something you just are. The behaviors stop requiring motivation and the habits lock into your identity and basically operate in the background. Like I, for example,
don't have to think about sitting here and writing every day because it's just something that happens regardless of whether I feel like it or not. So, with
a core reset in motion, the next move is giving all of this direction. So you're
not just behaving differently, but actually aiming all that energy towards something that's meaningful and structured. So let's talk about ABTH
structured. So let's talk about ABTH goals. You need to lock in absolute
goals. You need to lock in absolute clarity before you try to change anything because your brain cannot follow a direction it cannot see. So you
need to sit down and extract the actual truth of where your life stands right now without softening it or decorating it. Vague starting points always produce
it. Vague starting points always produce vague outcomes. So you should treat this
vague outcomes. So you should treat this like a diagnostic of your life. When you
write the truth down without any filters, you basically immediately create leverage and you create pressure because now you know where you are and you kind of know where you want to go.
And that leverage will push you in ways that motivation never could. So this
clarity becomes the anchor that guides every decision you make over the next 30 days. And the clearer it is, the faster
days. And the clearer it is, the faster you will move. So the ABTH framework is something that I talked about in a different video, but it's a clarity engine that basically gives you a fixed
starting point, a defined target, a compressed timeline, and the exact habits that bridge the gap. So you
should treat it like the blueprint that basically removes any confusion, removes any emotional guesswork, and forces you into structure that you can actually follow. And when you use ABTH properly,
follow. And when you use ABTH properly, you'll know exactly where you stand, exactly who you're becoming, exactly how fast you need to move, and exactly what you'll be doing every day to make that
identity shift real. So the framework gives your brain certainty, direction, and pressure, which is why it sits at the center of this entire process. So
what ABT stands for is actual becoming timeline and habits. Now actual refers to your current reality across your habits, your routines, your patterns, your numbers and your behaviors in the
four four pillars of health, wealth, love and self. This is your real starting point. Now B stands for
starting point. Now B stands for becoming and this is the desired reality you're growing into. Here you basically define the goal and what your habits and actions must align with. T stands for
timeline. This is the fixed timeline in
timeline. This is the fixed timeline in which you intend to accomplish the goal.
And the timeline creates pressure and urgency and basically forces faster adaptation by giving your brain a clear deadline and no room for negotiation. So
in this case, it's the 30-day container that we're talking about. And H stands for habits. Habits are the behaviors you
for habits. Habits are the behaviors you install so that the transformation doesn't stay theoretical, but becomes visible and measurable. And these are the daily actions you will need to do to
basically transform your actual into your becoming. Now starting with actual,
your becoming. Now starting with actual, you need to document your real numbers, your real patterns and your real tendencies. Your system needs hard data
tendencies. Your system needs hard data to operate with. So write down your habits and numbers as they currently are even if you dislike the truth. This is
really important. You should stop lying to yourself about where you are. And
then you can for example list your weight, your meals, uh your sleep, your income, your work hours, your content consumption, your social habits. These
reveal the real architecture of your life. And then pinpoint what drains you,
life. And then pinpoint what drains you, what distracts you, what wastes time and what keeps you looping in the same place basically and keeps you running in circles. These patterns must be
circles. These patterns must be disrupted. And then capture your default
disrupted. And then capture your default emotional responses, your default impulses and your default excuses. The
old identity hides inside these details.
And then finally, you should tell the truth without sugarcoating it. This
process will basically shatter the illusion that you have less to fix than you actually do. Radical honesty here will give you a baseline that removes any denial and forces responsibility.
Once you see the truth clearly, you have no other choice but to basically change it. You will see the gap between your
it. You will see the gap between your desired life and your actual actions and the realization will hit you in a way that you cannot ignore. And if you accept that this is starting point is
simply information and you don't shame yourself then you can use it for fuel.
You can use it as fuel for change. So
keep the language simple and blunt so your brain cannot twist your reality into something softer. So once the truth is on the table and the real you is no longer hiding an abstraction, you'll
feel an immediate need to define who you must become to basically escape the version of yourself that you just exposed. And this is why it's so
exposed. And this is why it's so important to be completely honest here.
The next step is becoming. Here you will define a version of yourself that you must embody for the next 30 days. And
this is about identifying the immediate upgrade that will pull you out of your current current patterns with urgency.
So you need to create a 30-day version of yourself that is believable, practical, and powerful enough to pull your habits upward. And this will act as a blueprint and give shape to your
actions. Write a clear description of
actions. Write a clear description of how this 30-day version of you behaves, eats, trains, works, thinks in response to pressure. And obviously, you can keep
to pressure. And obviously, you can keep that version of you after those 30 days.
So try to avoid any vague trades and write concrete behaviors. Describe how
they wake up, how they initiate their day, how they end their nights, what they tolerate, and what they refuse to negotiate. And identify their posture,
negotiate. And identify their posture, their tone, their presence, their energy, and their internal language. and
try to make very clear how this version of you handles temptation, stress, and inconsistency. These are the exact
inconsistency. These are the exact moments that used to derail you. Then
write down specific numbers for every goal you have for these 30 days. Numbers
remove any ambiguity and create measurable targets that your brain can actually track. So every goal must have
actually track. So every goal must have a number attached to it. whether it's
weight, body fat percentage, income, work hours, or daily steps, whatever it is. Numbers give you clear feedback on
is. Numbers give you clear feedback on whether you're actually moving forward or staying stuck. So try to record these numbers daily so you can see progress in real time and adjust when needed. So for
example, if your goal is to save money, then first off, how much money do you need to save? And secondly, how much do you spend every day? All these things can be turned into numbers, guys. Now
you should raise the standards of your daily actions so that they match the becoming identity rather than your old one. So clarify what becomes
one. So clarify what becomes non-negotiable for the next 30 days from training to sleep to work to focus everything. And make sure that the
everything. And make sure that the standards push you past comfort but remain achievable enough so that you can actually repeat them daily without collapsing and possibly repeat them after you're done with those 30 days.
and then keep this identity simple and repeatable so that your brain can actually execute it easily and so that it doesn't create more friction than it than it needs. So once the upgraded version is designed, you'll need
something that forces your system to move quickly and consistently instead of drifting like it usually does. So you'll
build this transformation inside a 30-day container. This is the timeline
30-day container. This is the timeline part of this whole framework, the T part of the whole framework. And for the sake of this video, we've chosen a timeline
of 30 days. So the human mind responds to urgency by increasing attention, tightening focus, and reducing procrastination. So timebound
procrastination. So timebound constraints create intensity, and intensity creates consistency. So use
the 30-day window like a psychological clamp that basically forces immediate action and movement. And try to choose a specific end date and treat it like an immovable checkpoint. This creates
immovable checkpoint. This creates psychological pressure your brain cannot avoid. So pick the exact completion date
avoid. So pick the exact completion date and write it everywhere so it becomes part of your daily awareness and tell yourself that every action from now forward basically answers to this date
and make this date the reference point for every decision so that you don't drift. You need to shrink the window of
drift. You need to shrink the window of execution so that your system doesn't have room to negotiate. So decide
quickly, act quickly, adjust quickly and just keep moving. Use this pressure to eliminate any hesitation you might have.
Hesitation is the gateway back to the old identity. Now, the next step is
old identity. Now, the next step is basically translating everything into actions and habits that repeat automatically. So, you must design
automatically. So, you must design habits that bridge your actual state to your becoming state within the timeline you've set. Habits are the machinery of
you've set. Habits are the machinery of transformation. They will move you
transformation. They will move you forward whether your mood cooperates or not. So you need habits that are small
not. So you need habits that are small enough to be executed daily but strong enough to shift your reality and simple enough that you don't need to really think about them. So build three habits
per pillar. For the health pillar, you
per pillar. For the health pillar, you can pick habits like fixed meals, set sleep times, workout days and times, hydration minimums, morning movements, daily steps, etc. When your body starts
feeling better, the rest of your habits will become way easier to maintain. Now
for the wealth pillar, you can choose habits like daily deep work blocks, revenue generating actions, outreach numbers, and performance tracking.
Anything that relates to your wealth goals. So give yourself no choice but to
goals. So give yourself no choice but to produce. And when you see your numbers
produce. And when you see your numbers improve, your identity will begin shifting automatically. For the love and
shifting automatically. For the love and relationships pillar, you can select habits that reinforce presence, communication, and emotional grounding.
So these behaviors will regulate your nervous system and stabilize your mood and better emotional discipline here basically translates into better decisions everywhere else. Now for the
self aspect you can build habits like journaling prayer reading learning reflection, recovery etc. These keep you internally anchored no matter how
demanding the next 30 days will become and you will regain authority over your internal world instead of letting impulses run the show and being reactive to everything that happens. Finally, put
these habits somewhere visible so that you cannot escape them. Use a
whiteboard, a notes app, a notion dashboard or a Google sheet to track them daily and check them off every single day. Now, with these habits
single day. Now, with these habits locked into place, your behavior will begin shifting automatically. And that
shift will carry straight into the next layer of this process where your body becomes the fastest lever for becoming unrecognizable in the next 30 days. So,
let's talk about the 30-day overhaul.
So, you need to treat your physical transformation as the primary driver of this entire 30-day overhaul. Once your
body starts changing, your brain will follow and your emotions will stabilize and your discipline will rise naturally without you even forcing it. So, you
should commit to a fully structured non-negotiable physical protocol that removes any randomness, removes negotiation, and removes every excuse you used to rely on. When your body
begins operating at a higher standard, every part of your life will shift upwards. A regulated body always
upwards. A regulated body always supports a regulated mind. So physical
cues shape your identity faster than thoughts do because physiological changes create internal evidence that you're becoming someone different. Every
rep, every step, every clean meal, every morning will send a message to your brain that you're operating at a different level. Now, the brain updates
different level. Now, the brain updates its beliefs based on what it repeatedly sees you do, which makes visible physical improvement a powerful identity anchor. Once your body starts improving,
anchor. Once your body starts improving, you're going to feel a noticeable shift in energy, clarity, and emotional stability, and you should use your physical routine as leverage. When your
body feels strong and stable, your discipline becomes easier to maintain.
So, a strong body pushes you towards better decisions and willpower increases when your physiology is optimized. So
your entire life will just elevate when your physical health becomes organized, intentional and structured. Now you must build your physical transformation around four pillars. These pillars will
determine whether your body can sustain peak performance or not. The pillars are movement nutrition hydration and sleep or recovery. And you need all four working together because each one
supports the others. When one collapses, the others start failing as well. So the
first part here is movement. You should
move every day. Your body adapts through repetition, not occasional bursts of intensity. So, try to aim for 8 to
intensity. So, try to aim for 8 to 12,000 steps each day. Just walking and having that steady movement will improve your mood, reduce your cravings, and stabilize your nervous system in
general. And break the steps down into
general. And break the steps down into small chunks so it feels easy to hit your daily target. And you can pair walking with activities like sales calls or podcasts or reflection to reinforce
the habit. Now, you need two to five
the habit. Now, you need two to five strength training sessions weekly. So,
follow simple routines like push pull legs or a full body routine so you can always know what to do and you don't have to really think about it once you get into the gym. And increase weights gradually over time. Also, try to insert
small physical resets throughout the day to basically stay loose, energized, and sharp. You can use one minute posture
sharp. You can use one minute posture checks or shoulder rolls during long periods of sitting, but just anything to keep you moving throughout the day. Use
a few deep breaths every hour as well to just re-energize your brain. Now, when
it comes to nutrition, you need clean, structured meals. Your food choices
structured meals. Your food choices directly influence your energy, mood, focus, and consistency. So, always opt for nutrient-dense single ingredient whole foods if possible, and completely
eliminate anything that's heavily processed. And repeat the same meals
processed. And repeat the same meals often so that your energy stays stable and your decision fatigue disappears. To
do that, you can use meal templates so that your mind stays clear. You can
easily create basically a oneweek meal plan with your favorite meals and just keep repeating it every single week. And
believe me, you won't get tired of it because seven meals over seven days, you're basically cycling through them every every week. I don't think you would necessarily get bored. And if you do, then create a twoeek meal plan and
cycle that. And make sure you eat enough
cycle that. And make sure you eat enough protein because protein stabilizes blood sugar, which keeps your mood sharp and steady. So, make sure to increase your
steady. So, make sure to increase your protein intake to support muscle recovery and reduce cravings as well.
And again, try to eat clean foods.
Processed garbage food only slows you down. It lowers your mood and keeps you
down. It lowers your mood and keeps you trapped and addictive eating cycles. And
there's a lot more to this, but we're not going to go too deep into it today.
But try to go for nutrient-dense, clean, whole foods and prioritize whole foods that keep you energized. Remove any
foods that pull you into cycles of fatigue, impulsivity and just addiction in short. So the next step is hydration
in short. So the next step is hydration here. So hydration controls your energy
here. So hydration controls your energy levels. It controls your appetite and it
levels. It controls your appetite and it can control cognitive performance and discipline. So try to drink two to three
discipline. So try to drink two to three liters of water daily so your body can function at its peak. And also it's better to sip throughout the day instead of drinking a lot in random bursts.
Another tip here is to add electrolytes during training or long demanding days or just in general. Now, when it comes to sleep, you need obviously consistent sleep. Recovery is the key to sustaining
sleep. Recovery is the key to sustaining high performance. So, so try to keep a
high performance. So, so try to keep a stable sleep schedule. Wake up and go to bed at the same time every day if possible, or at least as close as possible to the same time every day. And
sleep in a cold, dark room with weighted blankets if you can. And before going to bed, use a simple windown routine to help your body transition into rest. dim
your lights or at the very least turn off any overhead lighting and any screens at least like an hour before bed and use stretching, deep breathing or some kind of meditation before bed to
release any tension from from the day.
Journaling here will also help you to remove any of those ruminating thoughts that you might have as you're going to bed. Now, once these pillars are set,
bed. Now, once these pillars are set, you need daily rituals that keep your body locked into a high performance rhythm. So the best way to do this is to
rhythm. So the best way to do this is to install morning, midday, and evening protocols for yourself. Now what they do is they basically turn your physical habits into automatic patterns that don't rely on motivation and you can
write them down somewhere and just basically follow them every single day.
So in the morning, I would recommend to start with some kind of physical activation ritual. Your mornings will
activation ritual. Your mornings will determine how the rest of your day unfolds. So drink water immediately to
unfolds. So drink water immediately to wake your system up and then use a five minute movement sequence to fully wake your body up. This could be, you know, stretching. It could be a bunch of
stretching. It could be a bunch of push-ups. It could be just a quick uh
push-ups. It could be just a quick uh run. It could be walking outside.
run. It could be walking outside.
Movement increases blood flow and pushes you out of groggginess. So, even just a quick stretch or a walk can improve your day dramatically. In the morning, you
day dramatically. In the morning, you can also review your targets so that your day begins with direction. And this
will keep your priorities top of mind.
It will also allow you to start the day with agency instead of reactivity. Now,
in the afternoons, that's where most people lose discipline. So, it's the perfect moment to reset and just maintain your momentum. So, take a short walk to refresh your brain and energy.
Walking clears any mental fog you might have. It increases blood flow and it
have. It increases blood flow and it helps you regain focus. It also allows you to obviously hit those daily step targets. So, even just 5 to 10 minutes
targets. So, even just 5 to 10 minutes of intentional movement, will lift your mood, reset your nervous system, and give you the clarity you need to maintain momentum through the second half of your day. Make sure you eat a
clean protein heavy meal if you eat lunch. Keep your meals predictable and
lunch. Keep your meals predictable and structured like we talked about so that you can avoid decision fatigue and prioritize whole single ingredient foods that sustain your focus and stabilize your blood sugar throughout the rest of
your day. Finally, use a one minute
your day. Finally, use a one minute breathing break to basically regulate your nervous system and bring yourself back to center. Deep breathing resets stress by activating your parasympathetic nervous system which
calms your body and mind. Now in the evening when evening comes around, this is your chance to really prioritize recovery and make sure your body gets what it needs to perform again tomorrow
by using evening rituals intentionally.
So how well you rest will directly determine how strong, how focused and how disciplined you feel when you wake up the next morning. So try to create space for your body to basically slow
down by reducing any lights and noise so that your mind can start letting go. And
then you can use some stretching, a warm shower, or gentle breath work to basically release any physical tension and signal to your nervous system that the day is complete, that you're safe, and you can relax. Then look at your
physical targets for the day and check off what you completed. You could also do this first, and then you could create that space that we talked about. This
simple act of reviewing and marking tasks as done will build selfrust by proving to yourself that you actually follow through on your commitments. And
it reinforces your identity through action completion, which is obviously very important for the next 30 days. And
it also reminds your brain that you're becoming the disciplined person you're aiming to be. Then set up your physical environment so that tomorrow can start smoothly by laying out your gym clothes where you'll see them first thing in the morning, for example, or prepping your
meals or at least organizing your ingredients. So eating clean requires
ingredients. So eating clean requires zero thought and effort or and you can actually reduce the friction as much as possible. and set up your hydration
possible. and set up your hydration station with a filled water bottle ready to go so you can actually hit the ground running in the morning without any friction or decision fatigue so that you don't reach for the white monster in the
fridge before you reach for water.
Basically, once your daily rituals are defined, you need measurable targets that show progress quickly. So, these
targets will give you proof that the physical transformation is actually happening. So, make sure to hit your
happening. So, make sure to hit your minimum daily step goal is the easiest way to burn calories and keep your mood steady. Just check your phone or or your
steady. Just check your phone or or your watch throughout the day to see where you're at and you can sneak in extra steps whenever you feel like during calls or at lunch or when you need a quick break. That way you'll hit your
quick break. That way you'll hit your number without even feeling it and without even feeling like you're adding another workout to your day when in reality you actually are. And stick to a consistent strength training schedule.
Muscle growth changes how you look and also how you see yourself. So, so use the same workout split each week so that you're not wasting energy figuring out what to do every time and try to lift a
little heavier or do a couple more repetitions than last time. That it's
that simple. That steady progress will give you real proof that your body is actually changing under the surface, even if it doesn't look like it in the mirror yet. Now, when it comes to your
mirror yet. Now, when it comes to your diet, keep it simple and focused and just make sure you're hitting your daily protein target because that's what keeps hunger under control. It's also
preventing you from reaching for garbage food when you feel when you get any cravings. So use meal templates as we
cravings. So use meal templates as we discussed to stay consistent. Basically
eating the same solid meals on repeat so that you're not wasting any mental energy trying to decide what to eat every single day. And make sure you actually track your recovery so that you don't burn out halfway through. So
protect your sleep window every single night. And you can only do that if you
night. And you can only do that if you actually track. That's when your body
actually track. That's when your body actually rebuilds. It's during sleep. So
actually rebuilds. It's during sleep. So
try to sprinkle in some quick rest moments throughout the day as well. Even
just a minute or two of just deep breathing or stretching will actually activate your parasympathetic nervous system and it will keep your nervous system from staying locked in overdrive.
Now finally, your environment needs to work for you, not against you. So the
space around you shapes your choices way more than you actually think. And when
your surroundings support what you're trying to do, everything gets easier.
There's less friction, fewer temptations, and constant reminders of basically who you're becoming. So, set
things up so that the healthy choice is always the easiest choice to do. For
example, you can put your workout clothes or water bottle and supplements somewhere where you can easily see them in the morning. And make the good stuff basically easier to grab than the junk.
And make sure you use little reminders around your space to basically keep you on track. This can be sticking notes or
on track. This can be sticking notes or cues in places you pass by a lot or scattering small visual hints around your home to basically help your habits uh stick. So, for example, another
uh stick. So, for example, another example here is if you're trying to read more books, then scatter books around the house. Now, once your physical
the house. Now, once your physical routine is solid, it's time to basically lock down your environment and what you're letting in because if you don't, you'll keep pulling back into your old habits. So, let's talk about
habits. So, let's talk about environmental lockdown and input starvation. So you need to take full
starvation. So you need to take full control of your environment. Your
surroundings shape your behavior far more than your intentions do. And the
places you spend time in, the people you interact with, the content you consume, and the stimuli in general that you allow into your system all decide how disciplined you actually become. So you
should treat your environment as a force multiplier rather than a background detail. If your environment supports
detail. If your environment supports your goals, you will move faster and with far less resistance. When your
environment is messy, distracting, noisy, or cluttered, your mind drifts back into the patterns that you're trying to actually escape. So, you must engineer your space with the same seriousness you apply to your habits
because the right environment will make discipline feel natural. Now, the goal here is to basically make it so that the right choices are just easier to make than the wrong ones. You're basically
designing your life so that the path of least resistance leads you towards your goals, not away from them. And your
brain will always take the path of least resistance. So when you set things up
resistance. So when you set things up this way, discipline doesn't have to be a constant battle. It actually just becomes the path of least resistance.
You're just following the easiest route, and that route happens to be the one that's good for you. So make it as frictionless as possible to do the things that actually move you forward.
For example, if you want to work out in the morning, then lay your gym clothes out the night before. If you want to eat clean, then prep your meals ahead of time. just remove any barriers between
time. just remove any barriers between you and the habits you're trying to build so that they feel natural instead of difficult. At the same time, you want
of difficult. At the same time, you want to add more friction to the things that actually pull you off track. So, if junk food is the problem, for example, don't keep it in the house. If scrolling
social media kills your productivity, then either delete the apps, log out of them, or put them in a folder that you have to click in click on three times to basically get to. Make the bad habits
annoying enough that you don't reach for them automatically is what I'm trying to say. So, your environment should
say. So, your environment should constantly remind you of who you're trying to become. Every time you walk into a room, open your phone, or sit down at your desk, you should basically see cues that point you towards the
person you're building. It's about
creating a physical space that basically makes the new version of you feel inevitable. Now, after that, you really
inevitable. Now, after that, you really need to take a close look at the places where you're spending most of your time.
The physical space around you has a huge impact on your mental state, as we've discussed in other videos on this channel, and on your behavior. So, think
about it. When you walk into a cluttered, messy room, your thoughts tend to scatter and you can't really focus. When you're in a clean, organized
focus. When you're in a clean, organized space, your mind feels clearer and more focused by default. You don't even have to work to get focus. Basically, your
home, your workspace, and even your digital screens should all reflect the discipline you're trying to build.
They're actively shaping how you think and how you act every single day. So,
start by setting up your home in a way that makes discipline feel easier and more natural. Go through your rooms and
more natural. Go through your rooms and basically remove any clutter that's been piling up and simplify your spaces and create some open breathing room that lowers the mental noise you experience every time you walk through the door.
And when there's less stuff competing for your attention, you basically notice that your mind feels calmer almost immediately without you even having to do anything. You're literally removing
do anything. You're literally removing stuff. So even something as simple as
stuff. So even something as simple as clearing off a countertop or a table can make a real difference. Every time you basically see a clean surface, it actually sends a little signal to your brain that things are under control. And
that subtle feeling of order helps keep you centered. It also sends a little
you centered. It also sends a little dopamine hit to your brain as well whenever you see a clean surface. So the
beauty of keeping things simple is that a minimalist environment is actually way easier to maintain if you think about it. When you don't have a bunch of
it. When you don't have a bunch of random stuff everywhere, staying clean doesn't feel like a big chore. It just
becomes a natural part of your routine.
And another important thing here is to pay attention to the atmosphere in your home too. Things like lighting like
home too. Things like lighting like scents and even sound levels of of TV or radios etc. and or of the outside world can actually have a surprisingly strong
influence on how you feel throughout the day. Now during the daytime try to keep
day. Now during the daytime try to keep your space bright and if possible keep it as quiet as you can. Natural or
bright artificial light can actually energize you, sharpen your focus, and help you feel more alert and basically ready to tackle whatever is in front of you. Then in the evening, try to switch
you. Then in the evening, try to switch to warmer, softer lighting. This will
help signal to your body that it's time to start winding down. And it makes it easier for your nervous system to relax and basically prepare for quality sleep.
The next step here is your workspace.
Your workspace deserves the same level of attention because this is where deep focus either happens or basically doesn't. So you want to structure it in
doesn't. So you want to structure it in a way that makes concentration feel like a natural default, not something that you have to fight for every time. So
keep your desk as clean and as minimal as possible, so that your attention naturally stays on the work right in front of you instead of wandering through random objects that are scattered around your space or room. And
arrange your essentials in a logical way that makes sense for your workflow. When
everything has its place and you can find what you need without really thinking about it, you'll stop wasting precious mental energy trying to search for stuff. You'll be able to just find
for stuff. You'll be able to just find it. It will also not be in the back of
it. It will also not be in the back of your mind. And try to cut down on any
your mind. And try to cut down on any visual clutter as much as you can. The
fewer things there are that are basically competing for your eyes attention, the less your mind will drift away from what you're actually trying to accomplish. And beyond just keeping
accomplish. And beyond just keeping things minimal, make sure your workspace is physically comfortable so that you can actually sustain focus for long periods of time without your body starting to basically ache or feel
fatigued. So try to dial in your posture
fatigued. So try to dial in your posture setup, your chair height, your monitor position, your desk arrangement.
Everything can be optimized so that you can work for extended stretches without your back, neck or shoulders hurting, which obviously will impede your focus.
and create a space that you can genuinely feel good about entering every single day because at at the end of the day, you're going to be spending 8 10 12 hours in this space working. So, you
might as well make it pretty nice. When
your workspace feels inviting and supportive, you'll naturally want to show up and do the work because it's just nice to be there. So, the next step here is your digital environment. your
devices like your phone, your computer, your TV, your tablet, they're often the biggest gateways to distractions in your entire life. So go through and remove
entire life. So go through and remove the icons, the apps, the notifications that constantly hijack your attention and pull you away from what matters. Be
ruthless about this. At the end of the day, you don't want to spend your life basically checking your phone every time there's a notification or every time a new real pops up. So turn off or silence
all the non-essential notifications so that your brain can stop getting hit with constant dopamine triggers every few minutes. And if there are apps that
few minutes. And if there are apps that you know trigger impulsive timewasting habits, just delete them entirely during these 30 days. You can always basically reinstall them later on if you want, but
for now just remove the temptation completely. And then restructure your
completely. And then restructure your phone and your computer's home screen to actively support your goals instead of undermine them. Put all of your
undermine them. Put all of your productive tools like the apps and that you and the programs that actually help you work, learn, and grow right in front of you where they're easy to access and use. And then take all the distracting
use. And then take all the distracting stuff and basically bury it deep inside folders that are several uh clicks away and just make it annoying enough to access so that you won't reach for it
automatically just out of habit anytime you feel bored. Now once your physical and digital spaces are locked down, the next layer is really controlling what enters your mind. Let's talk about your inputs. So, this is where you really
inputs. So, this is where you really need to starve out all that mental noise that's basically been keeping you over stimulated, scattered, and unable to focus on what actually matters. So, the
truth is what you feed your mind over these 30 days is going to have a massive impact on how you think, how you feel, and how you act. So, you've got to be ruthless about cutting out the
lowquality stimulation that's been clouding your judgment and stealing your clarity and focus so far. Now, when you clean up what's going into your brain, everything else starts to fall into
place. So, first, start by cutting your
place. So, first, start by cutting your content consumption down to only what's truly essential. Most of what we consume
truly essential. Most of what we consume every day is just noise that doesn't really move us forward at all. So, set
some real firm boundaries around those short form platforms that constantly fragment your attention and keep you jumping from one thing to the next without ever going deep on anything meaningful. And seriously consider
meaningful. And seriously consider removing the apps completely or at least logging out for the full 30 days so that you're not really tempted to mindlessly scroll whenever you have a spare moment.
And instead of filling your time with those quick dopamine hits, try to replace them with long- form content that actually teaches you something valuable like for example this channel or even better just embrace some silence
and let your mind breathe. And try to curate the content you consume. Pick
just one highquality content source that's directly aligned with where you're trying to go and stick with it exclusively during this period. Just try
to master everything that that person is saying. This could be one mentor you
saying. This could be one mentor you really respect, one podcast that con consistently delivers value or one book series or just one book in general that's a bit bigger that's teaching you
the skills and the mindsets you need right now. When you commit to following
right now. When you commit to following just one voice instead of bouncing around between dozens of different opinions, you drastically reduce the mental noise and the confusion you have
and you start to build real clarity and focus around that subject. So, next is noise. You absolutely need to build in
noise. You absolutely need to build in some real moments of silence throughout your day so that your nervous system can actually have a chance to calm down and regulate itself properly. So start by
lowering or eliminating all that idle background noise that's constantly agitating your brain without you even realizing it. And what that means is
realizing it. And what that means is turn off that random TV that's always on in the background and or that radio and skip the chaotic playlist and just let yourself exist in a quieter environment
for once. Give your mind permission to
for once. Give your mind permission to just be. You also don't necessarily need
just be. You also don't necessarily need music to focus or to work. Just be in silence. Give your mind permission to
silence. Give your mind permission to just be like to just be there without needing constant stimulation to fill every second of silence and make it a point to intentionally build in some
silent moments during your walks while you're eating your meals or during your breaks between tasks. I see a lot of people only taking walks while listening to a podcast or only eating while
watching YouTube or TV. Like give your brain a moment to just enjoy what it's doing at the moment. You don't have to be distracting it all the time. Silence
isn't empty or boring. It actually gives your brain the space it needs to process everything that's been happening, to integrate what you've learned, to reset itself. Once you start incorporating
itself. Once you start incorporating more silence into your day, you'll notice pretty quickly that you feel mentally lighter. You're more grounded,
mentally lighter. You're more grounded, and you're way more centered than you felt in a long time. Now, when it comes to people, you really need to be intentional and selective about who gets access to your time, energy, and
emotional bandwidth during this transformational period. So pay close
transformational period. So pay close attention to how different people in your life actually impact your mood, your energy levels, and the choices you make dayto-day. So if someone
make dayto-day. So if someone consistently brings tension, drama, confusion, or negativity into your life, it's okay to create some space and distance from them for now. Keep your
circle intentionally tight during this 30-day period while you're building the new version of yourself because you can't afford to have people pulling you back into your old patterns during those
30 days if you're planning on making a strong entry into 2026. Instead, try to spend your time with the people who genuinely reinforce discipline and support the changes you're actually
making. Actively seek out relationships
making. Actively seek out relationships with people who challenge you and raise your standards, who hold you accountable, and who inspire you to keep pushing forward. Choose to surround
pushing forward. Choose to surround yourself with people who celebrate your growth, who encourage your evolution, who genuinely want to see you become the best version of yourself. Next, make
sure to set up some solid boundaries that actually protect your attention.
Without them, you're just basically going to keep leaking discipline through all of that constant stimulation that's coming at you from every direction. So
when you put these boundaries in place properly, your days will naturally start to feel so much cleaner, calmer, and way easier to control without having to fight yourself constantly. So the first thing you need to do is silence
absolutely everything that has the potential to disrupt your focus and pull you out of whatever you're doing. So
make a commitment to keep your phone completely quiet during all your working hours so you're not constantly being interrupted by every little notification that comes through. and set things up so
that only your truly essential contacts have the ability to actually reach you during your focus time and let everything else wait until you're ready to deal with it. Now, you also need to actively reduce all that information
overload that's been bombarding you non-stop. So, put some real restrictions
non-stop. So, put some real restrictions on how often you allow yourself to check the news, scroll through feeds, or respond to messages throughout the day so that you're not constantly feeding your brain more stuff to process. And
whenever you catch yourself about to consume more content, make a conscious choice to take action instead. At the
end of the day, that's what will actually move you forward during these 30 days rather than just filling your head with more information. And during
these specific hours when you know you're most vulnerable to getting distracted and falling into old patterns, you should actively block access to those platforms that basically tend to pull you in. So don't just rely
on willpower alone here. actually use
app blockers, focus modes, or whatever tools you need to basically create some friction between you and those apps and and to support your discipline when it's hardest to maintain. So, make it a habit
to physically keep your phone completely out of reach when you're working on something important on or when you're training so that you're not even tempted to grab it reflexively. So once you've got these restrictions locked in and
working for you, the last critical layer you need to tighten up is really your social environment. Because the reality
social environment. Because the reality is that the people around you are quietly but powerfully reinforcing who you're becoming every single day, whether you realize it or not. And if
you want to learn more about this, then again, check my previous video on the subject. But your social life is an
subject. But your social life is an ecosystem that's actively influencing your identity and shaping your behavior patterns every single day. So during
these 30 days especially, you absolutely must protect your energy fiercely and deliberately and avoid putting yourself in environments or situations that encourage your old habits and pull you
backwards. So the first step here is to
backwards. So the first step here is to be willing to take some real space from the people who consistently drain your discipline and make it harder for you to stick to your standards. Start paying
attention to which specific people in your life tend to trigger those old patterns and behaviors that you're actively trying to leave behind and make the tough but necessary decision to reduce your contact with those people
until your new identity has had enough time to stabilize and basically become your default way of being. So instead of spreading yourself thin, intentionally surround yourself with the people who
genuinely align with your standards and who naturally reinforce the person you're trying to become. And actively
lean into the conversations and the relationships that consistently lift your mindset and challenge you to think bigger and act better. And focus your energy on building and deepening connections with people who actively
support your discipline and who celebrate your growth rather than questioning it or trying to pull you back down like a crap. So, now that you've got your physical environment dialed in, your inputs carefully
controlled, and your social circle fully aligned with the person you're actively becoming, you're finally ready to basically close the loop to this entire transformation and bring all of these different pieces together for the next
30 days by basically taking action. With
that being said, let's go over the review and your action items for the day or the next few days. So, we talked about the behavioral reset. We talked
about ABTH goals. We talked about the 30-day overhaul, environmental lockdown, and input starvation. We're at the review right now. And finally, your action items for the day or the next few
days. First, write out your full ABTH
days. First, write out your full ABTH map for all four pillars. And keep it somewhere you'll see constantly so you begin the next 30 days with direction.
Clean your environment, purge your inputs, and set up your physical protocols so your behaviors become easier to follow. And finally, follow your habits for the next 24 hours without any negotiation so you can
actually build immediate evidence that you're already beginning the transformation. With that being said, I
