Summary
Talking points: mindset, new year new you
Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a big fan of New Year's Resolutions. So instead of adding another thing to do, be, or try to your list, why not take something away? These ten things come from my own experience as well as helping high-performing men in multiple fields. Listen in.
(00:00:00) - Stop self-deprecating, and start taking “clean accountability”
(00:04:16) - Stop blaming women for all your problems
(00:07:40) - Stop consuming mindless content. Switch it for content that supports your mission
(00:09:35) - If you are ignoring your finances, stooooop. Educate yourself
(00:13:36) - Stop outsourcing your validation, and stop overworking
(00:19:10) - Stop living without structure, and value rest
(00:24:27) - Let go of resentment, and stop rejecting support

| 0:00.0 | All right, men, welcome back to the Man Talk show. Today, I'm going to be talking about the 10 |
| 0:07.6 | things that you need to stop doing in 2025. Now, this is a list of things that have dramatically |
| 0:17.2 | changed my own life and have changed the lives of the men that I have worked with. |
| 0:22.0 | I'm very fortunate in the sense that the clients that I get to work with are men that run hedge |
| 0:27.7 | funds that are Wall Street traders. They're some of the best in their industry, athletes, |
| 0:32.8 | professional athletes from the NFL and NHL, rappers, musicians, heavy metal guitarists and drummers, guys that are |
| 0:41.5 | real estate moguls and entrepreneurs in the tech world. I really get to work with some of the |
| 0:46.8 | elite top performing men. And what I've noticed is that all of these men at some point have to |
| 0:53.0 | stop doing these behaviors that are in this list. |
| 0:57.0 | And rather than doing some new years, new UBS resolution that never works, that nobody |
| 1:03.4 | ever follows through on, that I personally just legitimately dislike, I think it's garbage, |
| 1:08.2 | these are the things that you can start to call out and cut out of your life that are going to make a dramatic, dramatic difference. So number one, let's just dive straight into it. And if you enjoy this, please don't forget to man it forward. Share this with somebody in your life that you know and enjoy it. It goes a long way to growing the channel. But it also just goes a long way to supporting the men |
| 1:27.9 | that are in your life. So don't forget to man it forward, subscribe to the channel, and let's dive in. |
| 1:33.2 | So number one, I can't say this any other way. Stop shitting on yourself. Stop shitting on yourself. |
| 1:39.1 | Stop brutally, just like destroying yourself verbally in your head, punishing yourself every single |
| 1:45.9 | time that you get something wrong, shaming yourself anytime that you don't live up to |
| 1:49.9 | the unrealistic expectations that you have set for yourself. Stop self-flageulating and self-punishing |
| 1:57.6 | every single time something goes wrong. Start taking what I call clean accountability. |
| 2:04.1 | This means no shaming yourself. No shaming yourself when things go wrong, when you have made |
| 2:10.1 | messed up, when you have made a bad decision. I say this because I've noticed a trend in a lot of |
| 2:16.9 | men that I've worked with over the last decade and in |
| 2:19.3 | myself. I used to beat the crap out of myself verbally in my head whenever I did anything wrong. |
