Many years ago, back in what I call “the good old days,” I was in a nightclub, as I often was. I spotted this older guy on the dance floor, maybe 60 or 70 years old, surrounded by a crowd of people no older than 25. He was dancing, pulling moves, flirting, and having a great time. My mate turned to me, screamed over the music, and said, “That’ll be you at 60.” I nodded.

I thought, Yeah, of course it will. Why wouldn’t I still be out here dancing? But I had no idea how wrong I was.

I’m Michael Dawson, the author of Quit Your Diet: Think to Shrink, and if you’re sick of calorie counters, yo-yo diets, then you’re in the right place. I’ve built a simple 14-day roadmap to help you stop dieting, for good.

In this video, I want to talk about something deeper. It’s about who we can become. About how we all grow into someone our younger selves could never imagine, and why that’s a good thing. Change is inevitable.

What isn’t inevitable is the direction that change takes. And that’s where things get interesting. It helps to start thinking and acting as your future self, now.

In this episode, I’ll help you take the first steps toward that future with practical insight, a clear roadmap, and a question that just might change your life.
