 Hi there, this is James Swannick and you're listening to the Alcohol Free Lifestyle podcast where you learn how to take back control over alcohol and live a life of health, wealth, love and happiness. Do not quit alcohol! If you want to get better looking, make more money, get the body of your dreams, have more clarity, focus, energy, seriously, do not quit alcohol, keep drinking. My name's James Swannick. I am from the Alcohol Freedom Formula. I've helped about 20,000 people quit drinking now and there's some free resources for you in the captions or in the about section down below. What happens when you quit alcohol? Well, I'll tell you, I quit in 2010 and overnight, well not overnight, but in 30 days I lost 13 pounds, my skin got clearer, I had more energy clarity, focus, I slept better and I landed my dream job hosting Sports Center on ESPN. Later on I became an entrepreneur and business owner and my relationships improved. All these amazing things happened when I removed the poison and the toxin of alcohol. But here's why you should not quit drinking. You should not quit drinking if you would like to continue to be foggy. If you would like to continue having your sleep be kind of just average. If you would like to continue to be irritable, put on some pounds, feel like you're operating at a 6 out of 10. Alcohol is a poison. It's a toxin. And it takes your body 7 to 10 days for those toxins to be removed from your body. So do not quit alcohol if you want to keep bleeding your finances. Now a lot of times people think, well I'm not spending that much on alcohol. It's not really the outgoing, it's the money that you're not making because you're drinking alcohol. Imagine if you were clear, had strategy, you were focused, energised. Imagine how much better you would be in your business or in your job. Your chances of getting a promotion would increase which might mean an extra $20,000, $30,000 a year for you. If you have a business it might mean an additional $100,000 in revenue. It might mean a business that you start that you've always been dreaming of. If you know that you are capable of so much more and you are not achieving it because of your drinking, and by the way you don't need to be an alcoholic, but if that is you and you'd like to continue not achieving your dreams then please keep on drinking. Now it only takes two or three seemingly innocent glasses of wine at the end of the night, a couple of beers, a couple of drinks with friends midweek to send you down a spiral of mediocrity. That means you wake up in the morning, you don't feel that great, you're operating at about a five or six out of ten, you're a little bit late for work, you don't make that additional phone call, you snap at your wife or your husband, you're not a great role model for your kids. That's all it takes, two or three seemingly innocent drinks, and before you know it your whole life is just a life of mediocrity, of broken dreams, of things that you could have done but you didn't do. So do not quit alcohol if you want to be tired and lethargic and foggy and looking back on your life going I should have done that. Do not quit alcohol. Keep drinking. Keep drinking. Keep having your friends say go on just have one. Keep going out to dinner on a Friday night and ordering a bottle of wine with your wife or husband. Keep drinking that poison and waking up the next morning going oh I just don't feel that great. Keep doing that if you want to live your life at a six out of ten, but if you want to live your life at a nine out of ten and achieve what you want to achieve with clarity, focus, energy and feel amazing all the time that I invite you to quit alcohol.
