Chapter 1: Breaking the Cycle of Failed Resolutions
For every ten men, only six will set a New Year’s resolution. Of those six, one will quit by the end of the first week. Two more will give up by the end of January, and throughout the year, two more will drop out. This leaves just one man out of ten who sticks to his resolution.
Why?
That one man likely understands the common mistakes causing others to quit and knows how to avoid them. This book is here to ensure you become that man. Together, we’ll cover five essential resolutions every man should pursue and explore how to succeed where most fail. If you follow these steps, 2025 could be the most transformative year of your life.
Resolution 1: A Body Built for Confidence
For years, you’ve probably made the same promise: “This year, I’ll get ripped.” Yet, year after year, it doesn’t happen. This cycle is called False Hope Syndrome—a mindset where beginners focus on dreams of results without understanding the process required. When results don’t appear overnight, burnout sets in. You can break free from this cycle using the Kaizen Method, a philosophy of making small, daily improvements that compound into big changes.
Here’s how you’ll finally get shredded in your next years
Start small with workouts:Don’t commit to six days a week immediately. Begin with one workout per week in January. Add one additional day each month until you’re working out five days a week by May.
Build your step count gradually: Instead of aiming for 10,000 steps daily from the start, begin with 1,000 steps per day in January and increase by 1,000 steps each month until you hit the goal.
Focus on major muscle groups: Skip targeting small muscles like biceps or triceps initially. Instead, prioritize large groups such as the chest, back, and legs. Rotate through these muscle groups as you increase workout frequency. By replacing False Hope Syndrome with achievable habits, you’ll finally reach your goal of a lean, shredded physique. But looking great is only part of the equation—let’s move on to the next resolution.
Resolution 2: Glow Up with Clear Skin
Waking up to acne and blemishes can be disheartening. Imagine starting every morning in 2025 with clear, radiant skin. Achieving this requires only three essential products: a cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF sunblock.However, most men fail because they don’t pay attention to ingredients. Here’s what you need to know:
Choose the right cleanser: Opt for one containing salicylic acid, a compound that penetrates deep into pores to remove oil and dirt without over-drying the skin. Products like Geologie’s cleanser, which I’ve personally used for five years, are excellent choices.
Moisturize effectively: Use a moisturizer with hyaluronic acid to help your skin retain hydration without clogging pores. Look for dual-purpose products with SPF to protect against UV damage.
Simplify your routine: Stick to these three products and focus on their effectiveness. Brands like Geologie provide award-winning solutions, but you can also find alternatives if you follow the ingredient guidelines provided.With just these steps, you’ll achieve the skin you’ve always wanted and start every day feeling confident.
Resolution 3: Find a Partner
One of the most common resolutions is finding a girlfriend. Yet, many men overthink the process and never take action. To succeed, you need to shift from theoretical learning to kinesthetic learning—learning by doing.Start by immersing yourself in environments where you’re likely to meet women. Here are ten hobbies with high concentrations of women, ranked from lowest to highest:
Photography clubs
Swimming groups
Gardening groups
Riding clubs
Painting classes
Woodworking classes
Cooking classes
Instrument lessons
Language classes
Book clubs (98.6% women!)
Pick one or more of these activities and get involved. By being proactive, you’ll drastically increase your chances of meeting a partner.
Resolution 4: Quit Your Worst Vices
Whether it’s smoking, vaping, junk food, or excessive screen time, bad habits hold many men back. The key to breaking free is understanding that willpower is like a muscle—it strengthens with the right approach and weakens without it.
Here’s a simple exercise to illustrate this:
Fill a glass of water to the brim. Hold it out in front of you. At first, it feels light, but as time passes, your muscles begin to fatigue.
This represents your willpower. Early in the day, it’s easier to resist temptation, but as you fatigue, those vices feel heavier and harder to ignore.
Steps to overcome vices:
Remove temptations from your environment (e.g., delete bookmarks, clear out your fridge).
Replace harmful habits with healthier alternatives (e.g., swap soda for water or alcohol for non-alcoholic options).
Build your willpower over time with small, consistent victories.
Resolution 5: Make More Money
Many men dream of becoming wealthy, but most fail because they chase high-stimulation opportunities without staying committed through the boring preparation phase. To succeed financially, you need focus and a clear direction.
Use the PPP Framework to guide you:
Passion: List activities you genuinely enjoy.
Profit: Identify which of these can generate income.
Purpose: Choose pursuits that combine profit with meaningful impact.
For example, if you love fitness, becoming a personal trainer allows you to turn passion into profit while helping others improve their lives.
Epilogue: A New Chapter Begins
This isn’t about one year. It’s about a mindset shift that can shape the rest of your life. By transforming your body, refining your habits, building meaningful relationships, and aligning your work with your passions, you’re creating a foundation for lasting success.
