Skip the New Year’s resolutions. I’m sharing my 4-month playbook to close 2025 strong, using AI tools, wearables, and discipline. No BS. Real systems, focused goals, zero fluff.

Why now? I’ve quietly been refining this “Great Lock-In” approach since January, before it went viral on TikTok. It’s 122 days (Sept–Dec) for serious transformation—no extremes, just personalized improvement in health, business, or creativity.

What’s different? This isn’t a challenge for challenge’s sake. I treat transformation like a business launch: strategy, ROI, accountability, and public milestones.

My 4 Lock-In Goals:

  • Grow First AI Movers to 4,000+ subscribers: Uniting my scattered audience into a genuine community—less reliant on algorithms, more direct value.

  • Be more public with video: No more behind-the-scenes. I’ll share practical AI transformation advice, speak at events, and build a global thought-leader brand.

  • Guide 3 companies to true AI-first: As a consultant & fractional CxO, I’ll lead 3 orgs through AI readiness, hands-on projects, and real capability-building—cutting through the hype.

  • Share my AI-powered health blueprint: Using wearables (Whoop, Garmin, Polar) and CGMs, I’ve cut my biological age by six years in months. The approach: discipline, data, and the right tools—no fads.

Why public? Accountability drives results—share your Lock-In with others and you’re more likely to win. For founders, Q4 is prime time for growth while others stall. Daily systems and small goals stack up to big change—start now and outpace those waiting for January.

Your Move: Pick 1–3 goals, craft daily systems, make your progress visible, and celebrate each win. This isn’t perfection—it’s evidence you’re actually evolving. 109 days left. The movement’s real. Are you ready?
