Q & A

What is the first habit suggested in the script to improve your morning routine?

The first habit suggested is to never wake up with a loud alarm. Instead, use a quiet alarm that gradually increases in volume to mimic the natural wake-up cycle, as waking up to a loud alarm can increase stress hormones and blood pressure.

Why is it recommended to change your ringtone to something softer and set your alarm to Crescendo mode?

This is recommended because studies indicate that a gradual increase in alarm volume more naturally mimics the natural wake-up cycle, reducing the stress and blood pressure associated with sudden loud noises.

What is the issue with using acne cream only on the pimple itself according to the script?

Using acne cream only on the pimple might reduce its size but will not eliminate the underlying bacteria, which can lead to another pimple in the same area. It is suggested to apply the cream on the entire surrounding area to address the root cause.

Why should you not brush your teeth immediately after eating in the morning?

Brushing your teeth immediately after eating introduces acidity to your mouth, and brushing at this time can damage your teeth and gums, which are more sensitive. It is recommended to wait about 30 minutes after eating before brushing.

What is the alternative to brushing teeth immediately after eating suggested in the script?

The alternative suggested is to swish a small glass of water in your mouth for about 30 seconds and then spit it out before brushing your teeth. This helps to neutralize acidity and prevent damage to teeth and gums.

Why is it advised not to wash your face with a bar of soap while showering?

Regular bar soap is too harsh for the face, stripping natural oils and leading to dry skin and acne. It is recommended to use a face wash designed for the face to maintain skin health.

What are the common mistakes made when washing the face according to the script?

Common mistakes include using a bar of soap, overwashing the face, using standard facial moisturizers from local supermarkets, using hot water, and buying into the hype of expensive products. These can lead to skin damage and other issues.

Why is it suggested not to drink caffeine as soon as you wake up?

Drinking caffeine immediately after waking up can lead to a crash later in the day. Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors, and when it wears off, the accumulated adenosine can cause feelings of fatigue. Delaying caffeine intake for the first 90 minutes can help avoid this.

What is the recommended approach to determine the right amount of sleep based on age according to the script?

The script suggests that the amount of sleep needed varies by age: 9 to 12 hours for 14-year-olds, 7 to 9 hours for 18 to 25-year-olds, and 6 to 8 hours for 26 to 64-year-olds. It is advised not to sleep more than 10 hours.

What are the three things the script advises not to worry about to improve happiness and well-being?

The script advises not to worry about the past, the future, and seeking validation from others. These worries are often unfounded and can detract from present happiness and self-fulfillment.

Lastly, it challenges the common practice of brushing teeth immediately after eating, explaining that it can damage sensitive teeth and gums due to increased mouth acidity post-meal. The advice is to wait 30 minutes or rinse with water before brushing.

Transcripts

your habits will either make you

attractive or unattractive and most of

you you already know what habits you

should be doing you're just doing them

wrong so today please never start these

seven habits start with number One never

wake up with an alarm see everyone

believes you need to wake up with a loud

alarm so you can hear it but if you want

to wake up feeling your best you need to

wake up with a quiet alarm you see a

recent study from virginity University

found how waking up to an alarm impacted

both blood pressure and stress level

they hooked two groups up with machines

one one woke up to a loud alarm while

the other group woke up naturally the

results show the group who woke up

naturally had normal Baseline levels of

both blood pressure and stress meanwhile

the group that woke up to an alarm had a

74% increase in stress hormones and

blood pressure this is why you have PTSD

every time that alarm sounds in the

morning so if you want to start waking

up early and wake up feeling great I

want you to adopt my method and wake up

with a quiet alarm first you're going to

go to your iPhone settings and change

your ringtone to something that's softer

and more relaxing next you will set your

alarm to Crescendo mode the music will

start quietly when it goes off in the

morning and gradually increase in volume

studies indicate that this more

naturally mimics your natural wakeup

cycle all right so now you know the one

thing that all of us are doing every day

that's just ruining your day raising

your stress hormones raising your blood

pressure but by just making that simple

change you've already improved your life

now just imagine how many more habits

you're probably doing wrong that are

impacting this exactly takes me to

number two never use acne cream on your

pimple when you get a pimple you'll do

one of two things you lier do nothing

and try to ignore it or you'll run to

the store buy some pimple cream and

apply it to the acne well both

approaches they're completely wrong and

here's what you should do instead First

grab your acne cream and apply it to

your index finger instead of dabbing a

small amount on the pimple I want you to

apply it on the pimple in the entire

surrounding area you see according to

the American Academy of Dermatology

placing a small amount just on the

pimple might reduce its size but it's

not going to eliminate underlying

bacteria this means you'll likely get

another pimple around the same spot

again so for example if you have a

pimple on your forehead apply the acne

cream on your entire forehead if you

have a pimple on your chin cover the

entire chin and if it's on the cheek

cover the entire cheek three never brush

your teeth in the morning you see the

typical morning routine for all men is

you have breakfast you brush your teeth

and then you head out the door but this

is what's causing your bad breath and

all you have to do is a simp switch

first you need to stop brushing your

teeth right after you eat when you eat

you introduce acidity to your mouth and

it takes a while for it to go away you

brush your teeth right after eating when

your teeth and your gums are more

sensitive it will damage them causing

them to bleed and ultimately give you

back breath so according to research you

should wait about 30 minutes after

eating before you start brushing your

teeth again but if you don't want to

wait that long and you're in a rush and

you want to bypass the acidity I want

you to take a small glass of water I

want you to swish it in your mouth for

about 30 seconds seconds spit it out and

then start brushing your teeth do this

and notice how you'll have fresh breath

always number four never wash your face

both in the morning and at night you see

washing your face it's crucial for

perfect looking skin only if you do it

right because when you do it wrong this

is when you end up with worse skin even

though you think you're doing all the

right steps so I'm going to give you

five common face washing mistakes every

guy makes I want you to avoid first

never wash your face with a bar of soap

while you're in the shower sure you

think it's official

but regular bar soap it is too harsh for

your skin they strip your natural oils

which leads you to having dry skin and

ultimately give you acne instead you

need to buy a face wash that's designed

for your face the one that I use is from

geology I've been using it for 3 years

I'm not changing it because it not only

cleans my skin it doesn't overly strip

it leaving my skin feeling clean while

also still being hydrated second never

overwash your face as it's going to

strip natural oils and dry it even if

you're using a good face wash like the

one that I use from geology if you

overuse it you're going to damage your

skin as well see a lot of people try to

wash your face twice a day and some even

more than that but dermatologists are

now updating their views on this and

they're stating that once a day is more

than enough the only time you watch

twice a day is if you play sports or you

go to the gym and you sweat a lot third

don't use the standard facial

moisturizers you find in your local

supermarket these are almost always

produced overseas with lower quality

ingredients these ingredients can lead

to increased estrogen levels and men

making you fatter more emotional and

causing acne breakout instead go for a

high quality moisturizer that again is

designed for your faith if you wanted to

keep it simple I always recommend

geology and the reason I do is cuz for

us men I don't want you to have to go to

the store and try to figure out which

one's the right one for you bro keep it

straightforward keep it easy with

geology you get great products that are

awardwinning by multiple Publications

deliver right to your door don't even

think about it this is why either the

brand that I've been using for the last

3 years in my own routine cuz I don't

want to have to worry about which is the

right brand for me on top of that the

daily moisturizer I use already has a

built-in sunscreen protection which is

exactly what you should look for cuz you

not only are trying to hydrate your skin

you're trying to protect it from the Sun

fourth never use hot water yes it's

going to open your pores but it's also

going to cause skin damage instead you

want lukewarm water that's around 98 to

105° F or 36 to 40° Celsius now the

easiest way to do this is that when you

open the water I want you to take the

temperature of that water and then Mark

it with a marker every time you use your

sink you know exactly where you need to

open the water so you end up on the

right temperature and number five don't

buy into the hype of crazy expensive

products look a lot of them can be good

but for most of you you just need the

basics which are the inexpensive ones

and if you want to keep it

straightforward I recommend geology it's

also the most affordable as a matter of

fact if you click the link down below

right now you can take an online skin

quiz they'll tell you exactly what you

need for your skin problems whether

that's dryness irritation or acne and

then with my code you get 70% off on

your first month that is an absolute

steal and now you can see what great

products feel like that don't break the

bank if you guys want to check out

geology it'll be linked down below

number five never drink caffeine as soon

as you wake up caffeine just make you

feel like you're not tired everyone's

experienced this before right you you

take the caffeine and automatically you

experience a crash afterward there's

actually a trick to avoid the daytime uh

the afternoon crash it's not a trick

it's biology but caffeine is an

adenosine antagonist basally thing if

you don't know how to actually consume

caffeine that's why you feel that way as

the longer you're awake Aden adenosine

builds up in your bloodstream it's what

makes you feel fatigued caffeine

essentially blocks the adenosine

receptor but then when caffeine wears

off the adenosine that's still around

binds to that receptor and you crash you

feel really sleepy that's what I'm

telling you like when you don't

understand what's actually happening

inside you don't realize that it's

what's causing you to feel drowsy one

thing that you can do is when you wake

up in the

morning don't ingest caffeine for the

first 90 minutes or so that easy just

don't take coffee in the morning wait 90

minutes that's all you have to do the

first time I realized this I wanted to

test it on myself and as a matter of

fact I want you to run the same test

that I all I want you to do is on Monday

Wednesday and Friday don't take any

coffee the first 90 minutes of the day

day and then drink coffee then on

Tuesday Thursday and Saturday drink

coffee as soon as you wake up like you

normally do but I want you to document

what happens around 2:00 to 3:00 in the

afternoon notice that on the days that

you delay drinking coffee you're going

to feel just fine whereas on the other

days when you drink coffee early you're

going to feel drowsy and crash once you

run this personal study yourself you'll

understand why you'll never drink coffee

again in the morning number six don't

sleep for 8 hours everyone always tells

you you need 8 hours of sleep but this

doesn't work because not everyone is the

same what I'm going to do is show you

how many hours you actually need based

on your age and no it's not just my

opinion this is all back by sign if you

are 14 years old you need an average of

9 to 12 hours of sleep you do this

you're going to increase HGH and grow as

big as possible if you're 18 to 25 years

old you only need between 7 to 9 hours

of sleep but you can go as low as 6

hours now if you're 26 to 64 years old

you only need between 6 and 8 hours of

sleep in you should never sleep more

than 10 now by this point you're already

starting to use a soft alarm to wake up

better you're applying acne cream

properly to get rid of acne brushing

your teeth correctly to have fresh

breath washing your face correctly to

have clear skin not drinking coffee in

the morning and not sleeping a total of

8 hours and all of a sudden you're going

to start feeling better and looking

better but there is still one more habit

I never want you to start in your life

number seven never worry about these

three things see according to

psychologist about 85% of the things

that you worry about will never actually

happen which means you're wasting a ton

of energy so to truly be happy as a man

you need to stop worrying about these

three things first stop regretting the

past whether it was the time you

embarrassed yourself in front of a girl

or said something weird in front of your

friends no one cares you can learn from

it sure but ultimately you can't change

it so stop worrying about it second stop

worrying about the future so many people

including myself when I was younger used

to think oh I'm going to be happy when I

make all the money but when I get the

girl but once you have all that you end

up thinking about what's the next thing

you want this doesn't mean you shouldn't

have goals but you should stop putting

your happiness until you've reached some

sort of mythical standard in the future

and third stop seeking validations from

others whether it's on social media or

in person the world doesn't care about

what you're doing whether you do this or

that so just do what you want I promise

you if you stop doing this and the other

six things I showed you in this video

you're going to be happier and look way

better
