00:00:08.820 First thing is I focused on the future.
00:00:10.900 My wife was pregnant and I just didn't wanna be that dad.
00:00:13.480 I grew up with it, my mom was an alcoholic 0.99
00:00:15.200 and I just thought this is not the future I wanna create.
00:00:18.040 The other aspect is my fitness.
00:00:19.560 Always being hungover and it was affecting my weight.
00:00:22.100 I would put on like 25 pounds
00:00:23.460 and I just didn't like the way
00:00:24.780 that I was walking around the world.
00:00:26.000 The other thing that had to change is the friend group.
00:00:28.260 Because I was the fun guy,
00:00:29.480 the moment i quit now all of a sudden people are like oh dan's not as fun anymore i made the

00:00:39.320 whether that's true or not it doesn't matter i believe it so allowed me to stay sober and number
00:00:44.260 four is focusing on being the one i decided i wanted to be an example of success i wanted to

00:00:57.960 Thank you.
