I began this journey with one goal in mind: to look like a Greek god by summer.
Everything lined up perfectly.
The real reward lies in the mental clarity and discipline that come from fully committing to the process.
But I can tell you this: I feel incredible.
Thankfully, Ive spent enough time in this space to let that negativity roll off me.
Thats what keeps me going.
Mental Clarity
By far, the greatest benefit of 75 Hard has been the mental clarity.
Waking up every single day without the weight of hangxiety or lingering self-doubt has been life-changing.
That doesnt mean Ive cured mental health, as some sarcastic Twitter replies would suggest.
What it does mean is that Im better equipped to process and control my emotions.
When you start recognizing and appreciating these small joys, each day gets a little brighter.
Of course, life can throw curveballs, and one phone call could change everything.
But for now, this shift in perspective has made a world of difference.
as if sobriety meant locking myself away and wallowing in misery.
They couldnt have been more wrong.
Over the past two weekends, Ive gone out completely sober and had the time of my life.
My confidence doesnt come from alcoholits been within me all along.
I dont need booze to let the beast out of the cage.
This experience has already taught me so much, and Im still just getting started.
Focus on the positives, embrace the growth, and know that youre capable of more than you think.
