Why I Wasted My 20s Chasing This

How to stay consistent when motivation disappears, focus with ADHD, and achieve long-term goals without burnout. This video breaks down why having a clear north star matters more than willpower, discipline, or short-term motivation — whether your goal is weight loss, health, business, or YouTube growth. After hitting 27 stone at 40, I had to stop sprinting at life and start building something sustainable. This isn’t about New Year’s resolutions or crash goals — it’s about choosing a direction and taking consistent steps, even on bad days. In this video, I share: - Why north star goals outperform motivation and resolutions - How ADHD brains struggle with focus — and how to work with that, not against it - The mindset shift that helped me lose six stone in 12 months - Why consistency beats intensity for weight loss, business, and personal growth - The danger of sprinting too hard and burning out - How to handle bad days without quitting the journey - A simple way to define your goal so it actually sticks - Why progress still counts even when the day feels like a failure This is about health, family, future, and building something that survives bad weeks — not perfection.
