How I Lost 85lbs and Started 4 Businesses
Summary
- I lost 85 lbs by developing skills that later helped me establish businesses like Gym Launch, Prestige Labs, and Allen Acquisition.
- Earlier in life, I tended to act on emotions, engaging in immediate stress-relief activities without considering the long-term consequences.
- I've learned to overcome the short-term mindset and to think about the potential long-term effects of my actions.
- A key lesson was realizing that I am not invincible and that my decisions have lasting impacts.

How To Take Action
A good way of doing things is to focus on small steps that make a big difference. For example, if you're trying to lose weight or grow your business, instead of going all out at once, pick one skill you want to improve. Practice that every day until it becomes a habit.
I would suggest learning how to manage emotions in a healthy way. Instead of doing something to feel better right away, like eating junk food or spending money without thinking, take a deep breath and think about what will really help in the long run. Maybe go for a walk or talk to a friend instead.
To overcome the short-term mindset, try to think about how your choices today might affect your life later. Before making a decision, ask yourself, "Will this help me reach my goals next year or in five years?" This could help you avoid choices that feel good now but aren't great for your future.
Remember that no one is invincible. Every choice has a result. It's important to stop and think about the possible outcomes before deciding. So next time you have to make a choice, consider if it's going to help or hurt your future plans.
By doing these things, you'll develop skills that are good for lots of parts of life. Whether it's weight loss, business, or personal growth, these strategies don't cost much but can lead to big changes. Try one out and see how it goes!
