If there's one thing I can imagine hating more than being 53, which I am now, it's probably being 54.

I say that not because my health is poor or my body aches. Neither is true. I feel great and robust, and I've never been happier. (Thank you, Jenna!)

What I hate about being 53 is the constant reminder of my mortality, and how little time I have to do all the things that interest me.

Now for my morbid question: how many more January firsts do you likely have?

Even if you're a young person, you probably have about another 60 or so.

Sixty! And that's the young people! 

If we had a million years remaining to us then sure, I could understand treating them haphazardly and without a plan, and just drifting through them.

But we've likely got no more than a few score left to go, at the absolute most. What reason could there be for not treating each one with the utmost seriousness, and bending that thing to our will rather than passively letting it happen to us?

I may not know how many January firsts I have left, but I now do something I should have done all along: I make each one of them count.

And at the end of the year, instead of 365 more days of same old, same old, having gone by, I've become a better provider, I'm in better health, my relationships are stronger, and I'm frankly a more interesting person.

We all think to ourselves, "Someday I'd like to learn to do X." And then many, many January firsts come and go, and we never do X.

I can't know what your ambitions are.

Maybe you'd like better relationships with your children or your spouse.

Or not having to dread bills coming in the mail.

Or you'd like to start a new business.

Or straighten out that messy house that you just can't relax in

Or leave a soul-crushing job.

Or lose that extra 50 pounds that just won't seem to come off.

We aren't going to accomplish great things by sleepwalking through every day and letting events happen to us.

I'm going to show you how to be the martinet of your own fiefdom.

I'm also setting an example for my children, both the adult ones and the two minor children I have. They see that despite being borderline over the hill, I'm still doing new and exciting things all the time. Our kids should see that spirit in us.

Now don't misunderstand me: I'm not urging you to make New Year's resolutions, which generally don't work (although I respect people who make them more than I do the people who make fun of them for it).

I'm inviting you to do something much more effective. I've developed a system for making each year your best one yet, and unlike New Year's resolutions, it flat-out works.

A lot of people wake up every day, drive to a job that brings them little to no fulfillment or joy, come home exhausted, and wonder to themselves, "Is this all there is?"

Or maybe they're happy enough, but if they're being honest with themselves, at the end of each year they're a year older but not much else has changed.

I'm going to challenge you to accomplish things that right now you're not sure you can do. And then I'm going to give you the tools to do them.

Two reasons this is an easy decision:

(1) For Black Friday weekend I'm giving you a 50 percent discount. When I offer it at the beginning of January, it'll cost twice as much. I'll still make a ton of sales as usual, because the program is so good, and is a bargain even at the normal price.

(2) And here's how much I want you to succeed: finish the program by January 31 (not difficult to do) and I'll give you back every dime you spent on the program. You can have all your money back just for completing it.

We kick things off on January 1, but the 50% discount is right now, so here's the link:
