The title of this video is not clickbait. I guarantee if you can make it even halfway through this video, you're probably going to stop drinking. I can almost guarantee it because this is how I did it and nothing before this ever worked. Look, I'm going to be a bit vulnerable and serious in this video. I'm not going to joke around like always because this is important. I think drinking, particularly what I'm going to focus on is weekend warrior drinking, where you get drunk every Thursday, Frida
y, Saturday. I think it's probably the biggest thing that's going to kill your success and keep you in a low level state of anything. If you can just get rid of this, you're going to go to a completely other, different level of life I have. And I'm going to share with you what made it very, very easy for me to not just quit drinking, but not even want to really drink. It grosses me out to a certain extent at this point, and it happened almost like this, just by what I'm going to show you in this
video. A lot of drinking videos are very long winded, so I'm going to be super quick here. This is going to take about 15 minutes. And if you can't make it 15 minutes to this video, you are going to lose years of your life and tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions of success off your total income. Your health is going to be worse. Your appearance is going to be worse. You're going to look back at one point, just go, man, what was I doing? What was I doing? And I can fix that right now, s
o please listen to me. So look, this video is focused on Weekend Warriors. If you're a person that needs to drink at home by yourself every single night, or you have a physical addiction to it, I'm not going to be able to help you with that. That's something totally different. But if you are waking up every Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and you're feeling sick till Tuesday, Wednesday, you're not fully there. Your brain's foggy, you're constantly seeing lower gains in a gym. Your appearance looks wor
se, you're aging quickly, and you're doing all these things because you want to go and get drunk with your friends or drink every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, maybe get to the level of drink. Maybe drink two or three drinks every single night, something like that. Socially, if you keep accommodating these things because you feel like alcohol is giving you some big benefit in life, it's allowing you to have fun. And so it's worth these sacrifices, but you really hate the sacrifices. This video is
going to knock it out. You are not going to have a problem. And what's going to happen by this video is you will probably keep drinking for a period of time, but every single time you do, you're going to think it's more and more ridiculous to the point where you just go, what is even the point of this? What am I doing? This is silly. No, I'm okay, I'm fine. I'm going to get you there. So let me show you how it works. So look, the reason why you've probably failed to stop drinking is you're doing
what I like to call the huberman method, okay? And so I'm not here to dump on huberman, but if you go and look at any video on how to stop drinking or anything, it's always about looking at the positives of stopping drinking and the negatives of drinking. And so that doesn't work because no one ever really stops drinking. You can sit down and watch Hooverman's video that talks 2 hours about how you're destroying your body and lowering your output and you're still probably going to want to drink
. And the reason why people can't stop drinking is they think there's a massive benefit to it. They think it's the key to their personality, socially, energy, having fun, relaxing. They like it, they enjoy it. And so they think, oh man, these things are all so great that the cons suck, but what am I going to do about it? It's the same thing with coffee, it's the same thing with cake. It's the same thing everything. But alcohol is the most lethal drug of them all. Because what it does is it kidna
ps your social life, it kidnaps your personality, it kidnaps what you think is your ability to have fun and holds it hostage and says, no, you can't have these things until you put me in your body. It's all a facade, it's all a trick, but it's very, very convincing unless you really, really look at it. And so the way for you to actually stop drinking is to realize there's absolutely no benefit. You have to see through your jailer, your abuser. You have to look at them and go, wait, you're not ad
ding to my life. You're taking away from my life and then giving me what was already mine back to me if I poisoned myself when I could just stop poisoning myself. And I can have all those things. It's all an illusion. It's all a slippery, slippery slope. And you're going to see a lot of this is kind of borrowed from the book, an easy way to control alcohol. But I wanted to make this video because there's nothing on YouTube that primarily targets the Weekend warrior, the fun social drinker who dr
inks a few times throughout the week and kind of binge drinks with friends and whatnot. This is still just as damaging and it's going to keep you at such a lower level of life and hold you back big time. My life has gone since I stopped doing that. However, there's nothing really tailored for that. It's always just, man, drinking is bad for you. Here's all the bad reasons. Here are all the benefits. It's never about eliminating your actual desire to drink at all by revealing what's actually goin
g on. And that's what I want to do in this video, by the way, on my Twitter at CSS becker. There's tons of written guides in this. I'm actually making like a five post mini book on it that you can just come back to and use at any time. You're aware of all the negative side effects. And I'm going to tell you all the positives that you see all over YouTube and all the videos else that you've watched, they're true. You're going to go like this in life, we have to address the main cause. It's that y
ou think there's some massive benefit to drinking. So look, here's the key. The reason why people can't stop drinking is because they think it's like this. They think there's pros and there's cons pros, social life, fun, excitement, connection with people. And then they think negatives, hangovers, hangovers, feeling bad, bad health, getting fat. And what they try and do is I think these are so beneficial that they're going to try and find some balance or negotiation with alcohol. They're going t
o go to alcohol and find some way to fit it in their life and so they can maximize these and minimize these. And it never, ever works like that, even though it seems like you can. And so you see people that go their entire life just trying to find this balancing act with it, and they maybe go six weeks without drinking, but then they feel pain. They're super tempted and unhappy the entire time. And it's impossible to quit alcohol when you're like that. If you quit alcohol and it's hard for you t
o quit alcohol and you're like, I really wish I could drink with friends, or you think you're missing out on these things, it's never going to work out because you'll be like, oh well, my social life is gone and I can't have fun anymore. And life is so boring. This is why society is so addicted to it. When the truth is what alcohol does is there's no pros to it ever. All right? If you look back at when you were a kid or something like that, you could be social, you could have fun, you could rela
x. You had all these things. And even at this point right now, you can still do that. I'm going to prove it to you. You can have all these things without alcohol. Actually, it could be delirious levels of it. And so what alcohol does is it takes these very valuable things from you, your social life, your fun, and it gets into your life usually at like 1618. And what it does is it kidnaps these things. It doesn't give them to you. It doesn't give you what you didn't have. What it does is it kidna
ps them. And so what it does is it says if you want to socialize, you want to have fun, you want to relax. You want to have a blast. You want to enjoy your Friday night with your wife. Well, you're going to have to go through me, and you're going to have to take some me, and you're going to have to poison yourself. You're going to have to put yourself in the in order for me to let you out of this jail cell pain that you're in, you're going to need to cut yourself a few times. You're going to nee
d to damage yourself for me. You're going to need to make yourself a little bit fat, ruin your skin, throw away some of your success and goals in the gym. For me, you're going to need to do that if you want these things. And then I'll let you have the jail cell. And so what then happens is a person goes, well, you know, I don't want to be hungover. I don't want to do worse than the gym, but I want those things. And so they start hurting themselves. And for the rest of you, I'm going to talk abou
t just burning yourself with a cigarette. So you start burning themselves with cigarettes, and what the alcohol is going to do is eventually people think they can have some balance with it. They think, okay, I'm only going to drink one or two drinks. But then what the alcohol does is, yeah, you burn yourself with the cigarettes and alcohol goes, okay, that's enough. I'll let you go to the jail cell for 30 minutes, then you start getting sober again. It jams you back in there. No, you got to burn
yourself some more. And what it does is the more you do it, of course, you need to drink more to get drunker. So it keeps jamming the door tighter like no two was last week. Now you got to do five. You all got to throw some sugar on it because I taste terrible. And so what it does as I'll walk you through this here quickly, is it doesn't go and give these things to you. It puts you in a jail cell until you poison yourself enough for it to let you out just for a brief period of time, and it puts
you back in. It's not the freer, it's the jailer. So actually, let's look at these things right here. Let's look at all the reasons why people drink. I have them right here. So let's look at these six reasons why people drink. They think it's because it helps them make friends. It makes them fun. It makes things fun. It makes them live life a little. They're having good experiences. If they don't drink, they're going to be missing out on experiences. It helps them relax. And, oh, the taste is l
et's look at all these things right here. And again, this is kind of borrowed from the easy way to control alcohol, which I suggest you read, but this is shortened into a way that's very targeted for a young male who's a weekend warrior like myself. So let's look at socializing and making friends. This is the big one. So you probably have a social group of friends, and every weekend you go around, you sit around a table or do the same thing, and you drink and you all talk to each other. And if y
ou stop drinking, what happens is you can't hang out with this group of friends, and you think, well, how am I going to socialize? How am I going to have fun? This is an entire facade. And if you feel this way, don't worry, I've been there too. But let's really look at this. So, one, why do we feel like we're being cut out from our social group? Because everybody here is poisoning themselves. And so that's your shared interest. If you were to back up and actually look into the real world outside
of drinking, you would realize there's tons of social groups built around all sorts of things. For example, new friends that I've met through jujitsu. These are people that I can talk to and have interest with, and there doesn't need to be any alcohol involved. If I go to an entrepreneurial event, I make a lot of friends, and I don't need to drink to talk to them because we enjoy business and we have similar interests. And so what's really happened to you is you've ingrained yourself so much fr
om a young age, probably 1618, into social groups that are 100% based around drinking. And that's why you feel like you're going to be left out. That's the first thing. It's a facade that you needed to maintain your social life and friends. No, there are so many social groups out there, so many. And you've just deeply embedded yourself in the demographic that number one way of connecting is drinking. Okay, so first off, if you're worried about losing friends, no, you go and join other social gro
ups with people that you don't need to drink to be around and have other interest in. Okay, now, what you probably think, too, is, well, these people are my friends. Go to your social group right now and don't drink around them. Do it. That's probably the reason why you keep drinking, because you feel terribly alone, because you're around people you have nothing in common with, when the thing is, the only thing you have in common is drinking. This is why so many people are friends in college and
not friends later on in life. Why? Because some of them stopped drinking or the only interest between them was drinking. And you feel that you've built these friendships through camaraderie or connection or interest, when really you just have a bunch of strangers. And what's happening when you drink? You're not connecting with somebody. You're not making friends. You're lowering your IQ 70 points and giving yourself brain damage. You're taking yourself to the level of a retarded person. I don't
like using that word, but it's such a good descriptor right here. You're destroying your brain so much that a boring experience or a person that you don't have anything in common with and wouldn't normally like becomes extremely entertaining with you. And what's happening right here in this group of friends is there isn't actually any friendship going on. What's happening is everyone's poisoning each other to the point that anything that could become interesting, even people they don't like or
would find boring, become fun. And this makes it very, very easy for you to find friends. It makes it effortless. In fact, you can find anybody, and as long as they want to drink, you can be friends with them and have fun. This is why these type of groups start to pop up. And this is why you think, oh, I need this to make friends. What alcohol has really done has robbed you of your ability to make true friends. If you didn't have alcohol, you would never fall into this group right here, and you
would have to seek out people, actually get off your butt and go find people that you truly connect with and don't need to drink to be around. And if you had been doing that the last ten, five years, you'd have a social group of friends that you are very close to and well connected with and can talk to about anything and have a lot of interest. So, for example, I have other friends that were friends through self growth and business. I can text and talk to them whenever I want. I can go over to t
heir house, hang out with them for a few hours, no problem. And since I stopped drinking, I have to actively go and find people who I really enjoy being around when I'm sober. And that's kind of hard to do. It's a challenge. If I'm going to date a girl, I'm going to hang out with friends. I have to really enjoy them as people and I have to actually go and build my social group. That's hard. So what alcohol has really done is it's robbed you of your ability to have a social group, that it's going
to stick with you for a long time and actually makes your life better and makes you happy. All it's done is brought you together in a demograph of people that must be drunk to interact because they have nothing else in common. If you put these six people around a table, they have incredibly boring lives and they're not fun people because there's nothing going on except drinking. There's no connection to unite everybody in the group because everybody's doing different things. They just like to g
et drunk together. And so really, what alcohol has done, instead of giving you a social life, it's robbed you of your social life and gives you this facade, this fake one, and a group of people to do drugs with to give you that connection that you so need, you can have it without it. It's quite simple. It's quite simple. Go and start joining groups of people that share your true interest. And if you don't know what your true interests are, that ties into the next thing. That ties into something
we're going to get to here in a second, but again, let's look at the next one. It makes me fun. It brings out my personality. Oh, boy. All right. So when you go and drink with people, you are not actually fun. Go and sit with someone dead sober. You get drunk and what is happening to you is your personality and your ability to joy things isn't coming out. What is happening is you're turning yourself into a brain damaged, retarded person. And so what happens is you think you're more talkative, bu
t really all you're doing is you're just this stupid thing spewing words, but you think it makes you more attractive and more interesting to other people, and other people are going to like you more. Well, they're also probably drunk too, and you feel a little bit more comfortable talking to them. But are you really more likable? Are you really cooler? Let's look at what it does to you. Let's say you walk up to a girl and you want to express your personality. What does it make you? Stupid, gross
, unintelligent. All right. And so first off, the real you that's coming out here, this is just some stupid sweaty version of you that's coming out, but you think you need it. You think you need it. But really the reason why you can't talk to people is because from the age of 16 to 18 years old, every social interaction or every social event involves alcohol. And so what happened is you're basically a social idiot. You've never spent the real moment learning how to be comfortable and conversate
with people. I guarantee you, if from the age of 18 to 30 you spent your time walking up to women you found attractive or entering groups of people that you found that you actually enjoy being around and talk to them, you'd feel extremely comfortable speaking and talking with them. What alcohol did is it caught you at a young age. He goes, AHA, before this guy figures out that he can socialize without alcohol, before he figures out that he can be attractive to women and conversate with women, wh
ich is a little bit of practice, I'm going to make him think there's nothing worthy about him unless he gets crap face drunk. Okay? But a lot of guys feel like this. And if you really think about it, let's say if you want to be talking to hot women, what is the girl going to find more attractive? The guy that's in his zone, confident, looks really good because he has good health, he's not sweaty, he's intelligent, he's in control. Also, he's very successful and in shape, that's the guy that the
girl is going to go for, who is the guy that all the guys are going to respect, the guy that makes a lot of money, has health, seems intelligent at all times, is put together cool. That's who the guys want to be. And the thing is, you think you need this to talk to people when, one, you're probably in a social group that you don't really like, and two, you've lost all your social skills because what alcohol was able to do is separate you from them. Slap you in a jail cell and be like, look, I'm
going to give you your confidence back, but you got to burn yourself a little bit. You got to hurt yourself, got to give up your goals, got to give up the gym, got to give up your success for me, then I'll let you have a little bit of that confidence for a minute. If you go out for a year straight and you're just sober all the time, I have a friend named Tim, for example. We used to go get drunk all the time and then a little bit before me just said, I'm done drinking. He lives in Miami and he's
going to all the clubs, going all the things, talking to all the girls. He looks great. He's making a lot of money. He has all these social groups going on. And the reason why is because he just realized he can do all that without alcohol. There's absolutely nothing separating him from that. And when you actually got him drunk beforehand, he would have a lot of fun, but he was gross. His eyes would be droopy, be saying stupid things. He came off like needy and weird when he'd drink. Most people
do. And the reason why you get success when you're talking to other people when they're drunk, because they're drunk too, it's all a facade. It's all a facade. You're not gaining any social powers by drinking. You're lowering yourself and making yourself disgusting. You're hurting your appearance, you're hurting your success and everything that's going to make you attractive to women. And what you've actually done is you already had all these social abilities. You went to birthday parties, did
all sorts of stuff before you started drinking. You just started drinking and thought, oh, this is the only way we can do it, because it's easy. It's easy. But the easy way isn't usually the most fun way or the most attractive way. Now, next you think you need it to have fun, oh, how am I going to go to a Cowboys game? How am I going to go to a sporting event? How am I going to go enjoy this thing without drinking? Well, here's the big problem you're actually getting into again, what alcohol did
is it just threw you in a jail cell and is not going to let you have any fun until you have a little bit of drink. This is again always a facade as well. The bars in the jail cell aren't actually there. What alcohol has done is it's whispered and yered and convinced you it's there. This applies the fun ten times over. So if you're drinking, what do most people consider fun? If they have a drinking lifestyle? Going to the same bar every single weekend and having the same conversations, doing the
same things over and over again. Maybe sporting events, nice dinners and drinking, doing the same thing over and over again. Seriously. Look at most people's lives. They do the same thing over and over and over again and they never pick up anything new. Why? Because the shortcut to fun is just get wasted. Don't talking to somebody you don't enjoy. Get wasted doing a thing you've done a thousand times and you'd find boring. Get drunk. Doing something that doesn't entertain you or turn you on, ge
t drunk. Everything will be better. Okay, so that's cool. So let's look at what real fun is and how alcohol actually stops us from having it. It's the same way with the friends. If you were not able to just go at any time and get yourself wasted and just dump happy fun chemicals all over your brain, what would you do? Do you think you would just not have fun? Do you remember when you were 1615 years old you found ways to have fun? Humans have been having fun for thousands of years. It's in our b
odies, we can do it. What you'd have to do to have fun is go outside your comfort zone that is so large and so hard to escape because alcohol has crammed you in there and think this is where you're happy. Don't come out here. There's nothing else worth living in life except in this comfort zone. This Friday, Saturday, this is where your fun is. You take me out of it, you're never going to have fun again. It's a lie. It's the bars on the cell, it's the bars on the cells. You've convinced yourself
there. Because really think about it. What is true fun? If you were to look back in your life and go wow, I had a fun life, would it be sitting around the same table with the same people and doing the same things for 40 years of your life? And then maybe going on vacations every now and then drinking there too? No, that's probably not your definition of an awesome life. But it's just what you have right now and nothing's fun without it. What is real fun? It's experiencing new things. It's hitti
ng new achievements, it's learning new things. So for example, when I would drink, I always wanted to do a lot of things. Go travel the world, see new things, whatever. But I had such a good outlet because I could just go and turn off my brain and get drunk whenever I want. I could go and hang out with people and think, oh, I'm being social. I'm getting a connection. Look at us, we're having a blast. When really all that was going on in any of those situations is, I was turning myself into a ret
arded person. But what's happening in those situations is you're making a boring situation fun via making yourself stupid. You're making something you could never find bearable or fun by any means, fun by lowering your IQ so much until you find entertaining. It's like you walked up in the street and there's a turd with a top hat on, and you have to sit there until the turd becomes fun. It will never become fun, but you take 15 shots, you're going to be like, yeah, that's cool turd. That's what's
going on. And so, because you have such a good outlet, you're not going to go and actually challenge yourself to have fun and do new experiences. You are actually robbing yourself of new experiences. Nah, I'm not going to go on that vacation to swim with sharks because I'm going to go drink with my friends on the weekend. And also, you're not going to be able to do all these new fun experiences because you're going to be broke and unsuccessful all the time, and you're also going to look like cr
ap all the time. So you're not going to be dating attractive women either. So again, you're robbing yourself of more fun experiences, actual fun, dating hot chicks, going on expensive adventures if you want to, but more so when I stopped drinking, when I was like, okay, great. I have to find a way to have fun. You know how I started having fun? I started taking up combat classes. I do Brazilian jiu jitsu every single day. Me and my girlfriend go and travel and go on really interesting vacations
to see, like, brand new things we've never seen before. And we have energy to do it. I have energy. What I'm doing right now, just for fun is like LARPing John Wick. I go and take all these shooting classes. I'm training in knife combat. I have tons of fun biohacking and upgrading my body. And then also on the weekends, I have the energy to go see my family. I have so much time to go do new things and learn new things. I can take classes. For example, me and my girlfriend going to take salsa cla
sses. I have to go and actively find all these new things to do, like art exhibits or fun social groups to have fun. So I have to put in the effort. But I'm having all these new experiences and learning all these things and upgrading as a person left and right, and it feels amazing. That is fun. That is fun. When I look back, if I keep doing this for ten years, I'm going to look back and go, wow, look at all the crazy, interesting things I did. I swam. With sharks. I got my black bell and jiu ji
tsu. Me and my girlfriend are competing in salsa tournaments. Tons of time to see my parents. I mean, all these interesting social groups that are a lot of fun, and they give me tons of energy. That is fun. That is fun. What you're getting from alcohol is it's actually poisoned you and put you in this little bubble where you can't have fun without it. It makes you think you can't. It's robbed you of your knowledge of how to actually have fun by giving you this nice, easy, cope decade of your lif
e, which ties into living life a little. Whenever you stop drinking, everyone's like, live a little. This ties into the fun thing, but I think you're kind of seeing where alcohol is going and how it manipulates you is living a life where you do the same exact thing and feel sick two, four days after. Is that living life? But seriously, if you go and drink, I'll get into actually the cons of drinking, which we haven't even gotten into yet. Okay, but when you drink, it takes about four days for yo
u to get your full mental impact back. If you're doing Friday, Saturday, good luck, man. It's going to take you till Friday to even get all your juju back. In fact, it takes about two weeks to finally be at, like, full power. You tell me this even if even if, hangovers on average are three days, because that's what they are. If you go and get really drunk, you're going to be sick one day and then brain fog at least two to three days after, you're not going to be good. You're giving up 30% of you
r life feeling like crap. I mean, from the age of 20 to 50, you're going to give up ten years. Ten years. Ten years. And most of that time, the time when you're not feeling like crap, you're going to be spent doing things that are garbage. Oh, sitting around the same people doing the same thing every weekend, going to restaurants and just eating food and drinking and spending time with people you don't even relate to. That is not living life. Living life is having a ton of energy, being jacked,
going on a plane and swimming with sharks and then getting up, taking your private plane back home, winning a jujitsu tournament, and then being on the COVID of Forbes for your billion dollar business. That's living life. That's not living life. Alcohol just think makes you think it is, because society is dumb and everyone's addicted to it. What you're going to see as we keep going is all these little stories that I'm fixing right now or lies society tells itself to justify the one thing that's
actually going on. Addiction. Addiction. What it does, how alcohol works, the way the drug works is it throws you in a jail cell, an imaginary one, and makes you think you're locked in there, and the only way you can come out for a little bit, go out in the yard, is if you punish yourself enough. That's how alcohol works. And what people do is it's actually fueled by addiction. It's a bodily addiction that they need. And so they tell themselves these stories and create all that. They create the
jail cell themselves, and they rely on alcohol to let themselves out of a jail cell they've already made for themselves. When you can really just leave the jail cell and get all the things you actually wanted times ten. And it's not like when people actually quit alcohol, they think, oh, I'm missing something, I'm missing something. No, you're losing ten times more if you are drinking alcohol. All the reasons why you drink it is to solve problems it created in the first place. All the reasons an
d benefits you think you're getting. You're getting one fraction of that, of what you could do if you weren't drinking and hungover all the time. You're not even getting benefits when you are drinking it. Finally, let's look at the last two relaxing. How can I relax? There's nothing like sitting down, having a nice beer or a relaxing cocktail at the end of a week. No, it's not. If you go and just look at the results of what alcohol does, it increases your stress. As soon as you're off of it, it
lowers your ability to handle stress. And so what happens is when you're not drunk or you're not drinking like you used to, your stress levels go up. Okay, why? Because of addiction. You're addicted to it. And so what's going on right here is your stress levels skyrocket when you're not drunk. And think about when you come off of the drunk, but think of like, let's say we have a good, solid Friday, saturday weekend. Sunday, you feel like crap. You're not prepared for Monday when it hits. Tuesday
, you're still feeling slow. By Wednesday, you're like and you're finally getting up to speed. You're feeling tons of stress because you're behind in life. You felt like crap the past few days. You're not able to compete with your colleagues. And now, oh, crap. Your skin, your body, your weight, you look like crap. So now you got to burn all that off. And I remember I'd have to fast to get the fat off from the weekends, and I'd have to do all this stuff to make my skin feel better. I'm having to
do all this stuff, stressing myself off to the moon just to keep up with life. Alcohol doesn't help you destress. It is the source of your stress. It's the source of your stress. Those cocktails, those beers you're having to relax with friends, they're the reason you're so stressed out when the week starts, because you're not prepared for it. You can't handle any of it. And also, we're just talking about a chemical basis it makes your brain stupid. It releases all it throws off all your hormone
s, your sleep. And so you're still ten times more stressed than you normally would be if you just didn't drink. No, it's not making you relaxed. It's not making you relaxed. That's another thing. It's a jail cell you created to keep yourself in there and keep you justifying your addiction. Finally, the taste. Well, maybe I just like the taste of cocktails. You see the same thing with coffee, too. I mean, coffee is very similar to alcohol, except the damage that you get from coffee isn't nearly a
s much as if you have a drinking habit. You can drink two, three cups of coffee a day, still be exceptional in life. You really can't do it if you're drinking a whole lot. And so that's why I'm talking about drinking first. So the taste finally go pour. You remember the first time you drank liquor you thought was disgusting? Go sit in a room by yourself right now, pour yourself some liquor and drink it. It's gross. Okay? You're not going to enjoy it? No, you don't enjoy the taste. All right. It
took you five years of grinning if you sat around and Turds got you high. Imagine a bunch of people all get together and instead of drinking on the weekend, they sit around eat Turds, because Turds give them the same high that drinking does. They would do it and then they'd be like, oh, yes, well, this piece of tastes better. It's refined, it's quality. Look, it's aged. What? That's what people are doing with alcohol. People, I guarantee you, would sit around and eat their own crap if it gave th
em the same high and they would justify with the taste. No, you've just been eating crap for so long that you developed a way to bear it. Regardless. What do people do with it? They cover it in sugar with cocktails or whatnot? And so they go sit down for dinner and have an espresso martini. It's like 250 calorie drink. Oh, it tastes good. It's refreshing. No, what's happening is you're mixing another drug, sugar, with this drug right here, alcohol. And you're comboing up together. And sometimes
caffeine is involved in it as well. And you're comboing all these drugs together that release tons and tons of happy chemicals on your brain. That's not the taste. You're literally short circuiting your system to give yourself pleasure that has nothing to do with the taste of it. And you're sitting around covering something and all this fruity sugary crap that destroys your body because of the taste. Good, sir. Note you are using it to cover it up so you can go and fuel your addiction to it. For
all the reasons that we talked about above, there are many ways you can get good taste without any of these things. And also, having any taste or any relief from stuff that's based around sugar is just a shortcut drug to make yourself feel satiated, okay? Anything that's full of sugar or salt, that's just hacking your brain in another way. And so, no, the taste is not there. And if you want to taste good things, you don't need alcohol to do it. Finally, lastly on fun, is alcohol actually fun? G
o in a room right now by yourself and get drunk. Do you have fun? No. Alcohol isn't fun unless you're one of those if you're a person that's really addicted, yeah, maybe, sure. But no. If I go and sit and get drunk in a room by myself, it's hell. It's terrible. What alcohol allows you to do is get so stupid that boring experiences with boring people seem fun. You're not having fun. So let's pull it all back before we move the next part. You're not getting any benefits from drinking. Every proble
m you think you're solving is actually a problem that was created by alcohol. Every benefit you're getting is a facade. And the benefit you're seeking. For example, fun you would find in such higher levels without alcohol. What it's done is it made you limit yourself to a cheap facade like chemical, much lower lower level form of it. For example, fun that you were using now to cope. Because it's easy to get. And because it's easy to get, you're actually robbing yourself of all the true fun in li
fe. I guarantee you getting your blue belt or black belt and jiu jitsu like I'm trying to go for right now. I guarantee you building a really successful company. I guarantee you joining social groups of people that you actually share interest with. You're going to get more fun doing that. But you don't do it because you're addicted to alcohol and it won't let you have fun without it. Fun is everywhere in the world, but alcohol holds you back. Goes. No. This guy. You'll never have fun. You'll nev
er have a social life without me. Don't you have to burn yourself? Then you can go do it. Go make yourself drunk. Make yourself fat for me. Throw away your goals and success. Go, go. And then the second you go out there, you make yourself look like an idiot. And then you get a few hours of fun. You get a few hours outside the cage. And then alcohol grabs you, reels you back in, throws you back in, and makes you suffer for a few days and laughs at you. That's what you're doing. Every single time
you drink. You've confused yourself into thinking that your jailer is your freer, your savior. When it's not, it is your jailer. And you see the pain that it causes in your life. I don't even have to talk about the negatives. The negatives are what got you here. I'll point out a few in this video, but you can go watch any other video on all the horrible things it does to people's lives. Like alcohol is the most destructive substance there is that is so regularly used. And if you don't understand
this, what you're going to do your entire life is try to make barters with it. I tried it all the time, okay? I only have two drinks, okay? Only stick to the Keyla. Soda. Oh, only do this thing or only drink on these dates or only have eight drinks. The barter system with alcohol doesn't work because alcohol's job is to trick you. What it's going to do whenever you try the barter with it? It's just going to make it more painful. What it will do is you take two months off. You're miserable the e
ntire time. You come back, you take two drinks. Alcohol gives you that little high, lets you out of the jail cell where you've been suffering for two months. And then you go out, you have one good night. You're like, wow, that was fun. You wake up feeling like crap. You feel like junk. And the next weekend, you have to drink more to get higher. You have to drink more to get higher. And then you're so happy to have all these things that you were suffering from losing that you thought you were los
ing back in your life. And so you keep drinking more and more, and then you're back to the same point. And then you go in this whole I'm done with alcohol thing again, and it resets. It's a tricky, nasty little creature because what it does is it takes all the things you care about and all the things you can be and all the fun you can have and locks it away. It locks it away. It makes you think that it's not inside you. It makes you think that the alcohol makes it think that the only way you can
get those things is through alcohol because you don't know anything else. And so you think, all these things are so important to me. I care about having a social life. I care about having fun. I want to be able to connect with people and whatnot and you think, well, the only way I can do that is through alcohol. The only way I can do that is through alcohol. And it gives you that little brief false exchange. The way you can connect with people is found someone that you actually share a lot of i
nterest with and a lot of beliefs and views with, or maybe you don't. Maybe you find someone you really like to debate with and gives you energy. That's connection, the connection you've had with people while you're drinking, it really isn't connection. Try to interact with them when you're not drunk. It's probably a no go. You're not making a connection. You're just dumping happy chemicals and the chemicals that make you feel connection when you're drinking on your brain. So now that you unders
tand there's no benefit to it, there's no reason for you to drink in the first place. But let me really hammer this home to you. This is where I'm going to we've done 90% of the work. Now it's time for the knockout punch. This is going to stop you right away. So all I want you to do is just don't drink for two weeks. Two weeks, because that's about how long it takes to get it out of your system. And what I want you to do is I want you to journal how you feel on the last day. Maybe it's a Friday.
Go take a picture of yourself. Look at how good you look. Take a picture of your shirt off. Look how good your body looks at that time compared in the past. Feel how much energy you have. Look if you can track your sleep. Look how good your sleep was. And also go and journal for a second how motivated you feel, how optimistic and positive you feel about life in the last week. Remember, it's two weeks, so it's a second week. How productive were you? How much energy did you have? How are you doin
g in the gym? Document all these things. Document all of them. Okay? And again, take a picture of yourself. Take a picture of yourself. Then go get drunk. Go get drunk on a Friday night, Saturday night. Go with your boys. Do whatever you're going to do. Go do it. Wake up, all right, on Sunday, of course, journal how you're feeling. Then you're going to feel like crap. Whatever this, the hangover is expected. But here's where it gets nasty. What I want you to do is I want you to document how you
feel on Wednesday. Go take a picture of yourself. Take a picture with your shirt off. Go in the gym. Document how you feel in the gym. Also document how motivated you are, how positive you feel. How motivated are you to do more fun stuff. How excited are you about life? You're probably not. You probably feel like crap. All these things. You don't feel on top of anything. You don't feel in charge. You're not doing any of the things. You've lost everything permanently. You've reset everything you
had on that Friday when you felt good. Heck, take it into the next Friday and then record how you feel. As soon as you start to get a little bit of clarity back on that next Friday after drinking, you're going to start looking and going, man, I need another drink. And you're going to list all these reasons why, well, I need to feel social. I need to have energy, blah, blah, blah. You're going back in the same weekend warrior cycle where people get drunk on Friday, Saturday, recover all the way t
o Thursday. As soon as they get a little glimpse of happiness, they start feeling good. Time to drink, because that's what alcohol does. It sets a little timer. It punishes you. And as soon as you get any of the happiness, you start getting free of it. It goes, Time to drink, time to drink. Look at it. On Fridays, people's energy levels go up, and what's really happening is they're fully recovered from the last week and they're thinking, wow, everything's great. I'm so excited. I want to go see
my friends. I want to be happy. I want to feel even higher. I want to fill euphoria. Well, the only way they think they can do that is through alcohol. When the secret is just don't drink and fill your weekend with new experiences and fun stuff. And I mean, that'll do it for you. That's what did it for me. One of the last times I drank, I did it. I said, okay, I'm going to have four drinks. Okay, I haven't been drunk in a while. I went into that. Here's a picture of me the night before I went ou
t. Next day, I'm trying to shoot videos. I look terrible. I have no motivation. My sleep is terrible, my skin is terrible, my brain is foggy. And I'm like, Why am I doing this now? From this video? I'm not like some Alcoholics Anonymous. I'll probably have drinks again in my life. One or two. I don't know. It's not something I'm really looking forward to or really care about. I really enjoy the life I have right now. And I'm having fun. I'm getting all the things I thought I needed alcohol to ha
ve. And so this video isn't here to say never drink again. The video is here to make you think, why would I drink again? It's like, why would I eat poo off the ground? The poo is not giving me any fun. It's not giving me any energy. It's going to take away all the things I care about. So when I made this picture right here, I had to watch all the things I cared about, all the achievements I'd done the past few weeks. I did bad in the gym. I wasn't motivated at work. I couldn't make videos becaus
e I looked repulsive. It took me till about Tuesday to really have my sleep levels back on track and really be making progress. I did jiu jitsu. I was a little bit slower. My gains in the gym were slower because I wasn't recovering, because sleep was bad. Everything I cared about, everything that made my life fun and happy was taken from me. And you'll notice if you document in the two week period system that I just laid out, you'll notice the same exact thing. Everything you care about gets tak
en from you and replaced with fake, false experiences triggered primarily through chemical interactions. And the big thing that's going to destroy your life, young man, if you're watching this video, is going to be the fact that you're in a state of perma recovery. In order to do well in the gym and build business and stuff, you have to consistently show up what 90% of people do is they're weekend warriors. They go Thursday, Friday, Saturday. They get drunk and eat bad food and stuff, and then t
hey have to spend an entire week trying to work it off and recover until Thursday. They're at a point where they're good enough again and they start the whole process over again. And so you're permanently in a state of sickness. You can't get anything done. You can't be your best self doing that. You're never going to be jacked, successful and as powerful as you can be. There's some people that can fight through it, yes, but you're going to be 60% of yourself, tops. And eventually what's going t
o happen when you turn about 27, 28 is the damage you do every weekend is too much for you to fight off during the week. And so what's going to happen is you're just going to get fatter and fatter and fatter and dumber and dumber and dumber over time. In fact, if you're in your early 20s, you're probably just too stupid to realize it. But I was repulsive looking in my 20s because I was always doing this crap. I was always doing this crap and eating bad food and drinking and stuff like that. I wa
s repulsive. I had doubled chin and whatnot. If you're 20 years old, look at yourself right now. You're probably disgusting for no reason. And when you live like this, you're going to lock yourself the same level. From about 25 to 30, I drank a whole lot. It was focused kind of on partying and whatnot and my income and everything kind of just stagnated the entire time. I didn't really start giving up stuff until about 32. And in that time frame, I made hundreds of millions of dollars. And now I
don't drink at all. And I'm in the best health, shape and attractiveness and money place I've ever been in my entire life. And I do so much fun stuff every single day. Every day of my life is fun because it's chock full of fun stuff that moves me forward. And so that's why I made this video. Wake up. There is no barter you can make here. There is no benefit you were getting. You are just giving up everything that is important to you. That's all you're truly doing. When you're entertaining this h
abit of drinking heavily on the weekends and building a social life and everything else around it, you're just locking yourself in a cage of your own design. And all that's going to happen is you're going to wake up. For example, I wake up at 35 right now, and I've had a lot of success in my life, but I would probably be worth 500, a billion dollars right now. I'm only worth and I use only. I know you're going to roll your eyes, but hundreds of millions of dollars right now. And that's not where
I want to be. I should be way ahead of where I am now. But I gave up so much time and so many chunks of my life being hung over for so long, and I thought that was the reason why I did it. I knew it was bad, but I thought it was my key to fun and social life. And all the things we talked about in this video when it was not. It was actually taking all those things away. And yes, my life is pretty good right now because I was able to overcome a lot of that. But there's so many things I missed out
on having really good health at that age, meeting and building up friendships that would actually help me. I'm very limited in terms of friendships right now because almost all my friendships were based around drinking. I was never really my best self. And so there's really high level quality people out there I probably missed interacting with. And there's so many things that I really wish I'd start early in life. Like Jujitsu. I really wish I'd start when I was like 25, but I could have never
done it because I was just hungover all the time. And my businesses I could have started so many bigger business businesses so much sooner. No joke. Would probably be worth 500 to a billion dollars right now. But again, I was slow all the time. And that's because instead of thriving at all times, I was having to just barely keep up, hold on for dear life because I was tired and hungover all the time. I really regret that decade of my life being like that for a large majority of the time. And if
you're watching this video, you will too. So that's all there is. I don't see any reason why anybody watching this video could justify drinking. Every benefit isn't there and the negatives are so brutally apparent and huge, especially if you document them, that it's just it's such a silly thing that's never worth it. And at this point in my life right here, it's not that I'm like, I'm never going to drink again. Maybe I'll have a cocktail or something like that, I don't know. But I'm not sitting
around thinking, when am I going to drink next? Because it just seems preposterous. It's like, when am I going to eat another dog turd? And when I look at the drink, I'm like, why would I give up all the things I love? Why would I give up doing well in Jiujitsu tomorrow or working out or growing my businesses and become a billionaire? Why would I give that up right now? It has nothing to do with those things. Why would I go and drink this thing to interact with people I don't even really relate
to? Why do I think people I need to be drunk for people to like me? I don't. It's just preposterous all around. It's a silly, silly, bad joke that Sully worked its way into most Americans and most people's lives. So, in conclusion, realize there's no benefits. Look at the negatives and then document it yourself. Look at it. Go and document yourself when you're two weeks sober and look at everything you give up. Go two weeks and then pick up some new things that you've never done before. Go pick
up a challenge. Go do some social things with people not drunk. And then look at how you're if you're going to be able to do it again and keep up that pace. If you keep drinking, you're not. So that's it. If you want this, actually in written guides, written format, it's all on my Twitter at Cssbecker. That's all I have for you right now. That's it.
