Last time I asked for some replies from my readers, I got some interesting questions.

Let's go through a big one:


How have you been living life after you quit porn 5years ago and what other bad habits was you struggling with then and do you still struggle with those bad habits? And how's your relationship/sex life too?….


Great question, dear reader.

Firstly, I was dealing with a whole host of other bad habits back then too.

Most prominent on that list were smoking weed, playing too many video games, watching far too much TV and YouTube, some nicotine use, sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise, and surely a few others that I'm missing.

Which leads into how I've been living life since I quit porn 5 years ago.

The past 5 years have been a journey.

After quitting porn and healing my brain, I began writing online and started the business that you're familiar with today. At first, it was about general self improvement, but it quickly transformed towards breaking bad habits with cheap dopamine, and ultimately I began helping other guys quit porn and become better men - a pretty natural transition, given my generally open disposition and willingness to talk about the "uncomfortable" or "taboo," and the massive positive changes I experienced as a result of quitting which made me want to share that wisdom.

Changes like massively increased focus, motivation, energy, and drive that I poured into my other goals as much as possible.

And the combination of those benefits and the business I started...

As well as a good friend from the online business space named Dan Koe asking me if I wanted to go on a trip to Mexico for a few months...

Led to me moving to Mexico, where I've lived for about 4.5 years.

But it wasn't a straight shot to success.

I still had to deal with those other bad habits that I mentioned.

Some of them I dealt with quickly - like playing video games, smoking weed, and being totally sedentary... all of which I stopped around the same time as quitting porn.

Other ones followed me for a while longer.

There were some times I still spent way too much time on the internet, Nicotine came back to bite me a few times, and I was a bit into partying a few years ago when I first got to Mexico too.

But ultimately, I've broken all those bad habits.

For one, I've totally transformed my body by lifting heavy & eating well these last few years.

And I'm not overconsuming anything at all these days.

Not social media. Don't even watch YouTube. Haven't seen TV in almost 3 years. No drugs, no partying. No video games. And not feeling deprived, either.

It's not even that I'm avoiding these things...

I'm just choosing to do other, better things with my time instead.

Like build my business, go to the gym, explore this amazing part of the world I live in, and enjoy the relationship I'm in with a gorgeous Argentinian woman who absolutely adores me.

... and yes, while it's pretty personal, I'll say it:

My sex life is absolutely awesome.

Deep, connected, passionate love is made basically daily.

It's been my reality for years, and yet it still feels a little surreal to be experiencing first hand what happens when you quit porn, stop all masturbation, and reserve that energy for your goals and the pursuit and enjoyment of real intimacy instead.

Still in Mexico.

Still working on fixing problems.

Although that's just because the goal-posts always move, and problems always pop up.

C'est la vie.

The good news?

These days I'm truly without any of the old problems that used to plague me.

And it's my pleasure to spend a big portion of my time, energy, and life helping other men make the same sort of transformations every day. Though my priorities are shifting, and I'll be announcing a pretty special promo soon before I become a lot less available to help people 1-on-1.

That said, there's no need to wait.
