Throw out your tv. Your TV is stealing your dreams, maybe even your millions. The average American spends three hours per day watching TV. That's 45.6 days per year gone. That's fucking insane. The data says more tv lower educational achievement, higher risk of unemployment. TV habits don't just waste time. They quietly sabotage your future earning power every hour. Watching somebody else's story is one not building your own story. If you're scared to toss the tv, replace TV time with something that builds roi. Read, walk, call, and talk to a friend. Don't just like into the couch to escape reality. Every dollar I've made, every business investment deal was built on a foundation of boring, repeatable daily habits. And every single one I'm showing you is backed by real data. Steal these habits, stack them daily. Let's get into it.
