2024 was a kick in the nuts for me. Wife left back to Australia, we did long distance for almost a year until we decided to finally get divorced just a few weeks ago. My business had to take a backseat as a side gig because I was in deep financial trouble and I had to juggle 2 part time jobs working mostly nights, and also driving Uber on occasions. I was basically in limbo because I was in between making it work with my wife and possibly moving to Australia, or carrying on with my life and choosing myself. Still managed to maintain my sanity by being around my friends and exercising at least 2-3x a week. At 33, I'm still looking good, I've got the scars to prove I've been through stuff and it didnt kill me, and I got more wisdom out of the experiences. 2025 is going to be another challenge but I'm ready for it.
Aaron is that bro in the group that, no matter what mood or situation you're in, will give you the best pep talk that will make you rethink your life for the better. Your efforts are much appreciated. (P.S. Tiege Hanley rocks!)
This video is PRECISELY why I will always support you. I hope 2025 will be the year I finally get to meet you and thank you in person. Or at least get a selfie!!! 😉 Thank you for all the wonderful content, effort and inspiration, never stop. Onwards and upwards fratello. Un abbraccio forte! T. P.s. You are looking strong and healthy btw, you still got that magic spark of optimism, just seeing that makes me feel better.
Dear Aaron! I've been a viewer since high school and I want to thank you for all the good things you've taught me. It really refreshing to have a presence like you online. I made huge changes last year and I will be kicked into full gear in 2025. Thank you for being someone I can look up too! Balázs
I've always really liked your channel but this "reboot" that shows your vulnerable side is even better. It makes you appear more genuine and trustworthy. All the best to you in 2025!
5 -6 Years ago in my early 20s I saw his videos, it helped me a lot personally. Now coming back and seeing this as my first youtube video on 2025 means a lot. Keep hustling happy 2025 all.....
This was a good video to end the year on, so I just wanted to say thanks. I hope you and everyone here watching the video has a happy, healthy, and successful 2025.
I went through a lot of pain from the mostakes i made this year. It was all my fault. I'm just glad the year os over and I've learnt a lot from my mistakes.. Greater 2025 ahead 💪🏽
Wishing all my brothers out there a happy new year and remember, focus on yourself, work hard, train relentlessly and when she comes back, you’ll live in her dreams ❤
All solid advice. Nothing I have never heard before but sometimes I need that concise set of points, “boom, boom, boom” to get the confidence to make adjustments
New year, trying to be a new me. Although i know that doesnt change because of the date. Its been a process, but im working on it. Im turning 30 in a few months which has me panicked for some reason even though its not logical. I have been working my "dream" job for about 7 years but have realized i am not progressing. There is nowhere to go and it has become a chore. I have been working from home which has helped me a lot over the last few years but I have been depressed for a while and im trying to work on myself to better my life. I would like to start a business but i dont know how itll go. I guess nobody knows until you take the jump but I know i need to do something big if i want to make more money for myself and my family. I can feel im meant for more than this. I am stuck in a corner and am really trying to get out. Thank you for always inspiring me to do and be better alpha
This alpha I've learned the most from. He's so sincere as well like unless he's fooling us he really cares about us . Thanks alpha glad God put u in our lives
Thank you Aaron....been watching you for years and you have been such a positive influence in almost every area of my life. Congrats on the success and kick butt in 2025.
Something I wanna say about getting in shape, I've learned this the hard way. Don't do it because of social media, or because of how other people look at you, screw those people, do it because you want to be around for the people in your life who love you, because at the end of the day those are the only people who matter.
As a wise friend told me, and I hold her close to my heart, she always says that in order to succeed, you must fail. Anyone who tells you that they always succeed and never fail is lying to you.
Top notch video, really helps to put things in perspective. Cliche or not a reminder like this is always helpful to hear and keep reiterating to oneself!
I have been following you since I was a 14-15 and now I am 25 I have learned a lot of important things from you man. These days TBH I rarely watch you videos but I do get back on here from time to time and keep Doing what you are doing man it’s the best btw Loved this video mate. cheers take care 🥂
Thank you Alpha. New years is always hard for me. And I do my absolute best to be better each year and accomplish and hit goals. Watching your video made me tear up a little. Thank you. And happy new year.
Love You too Man. 2024 was a Year where I took My foot off the brakes and just did things because it felt right. Scary as hell but ended up being the most fulfilling Year so far because I found out for the first Time in My Life what I was capable of. And here's the REALLY cool thing - I got to take People WITH ME on that Journey. A BIG part of why 2024 became what it did was People like You Aaron that poured into Me and slapped Me up side the head every once in a while and made Me think about things from a different perspective. I might not like all the curse words (lol) but what I Believe is God uses People to reach out to Us and to say things to Us that He sees that We need. THANK YOU DUDE. Will never forget how this past Year changed Me. It's because of the People, Aaron, and the things We ALL face. Things go a LOT better when We face things TOGETHER. In My eyes, You're just like the cologne I bought off Your site - a LEGEND (wifey says I need MORE - She LOVES that stuff!) ...thank You!
Damn alpha you saved my life, You are the only person on TH-cam who i can really look upto, i recently failed at my restaurant business which led me to a huge loss and that thing really pulled me off from the life and made me really depressed i wasnt even doing anything from past 3 months even if i had the opportunity i didnt learned those things and i failed miserably in learning new things too all i ever did was giving excuses in these 3 months that i will learn another business strategy in a different field but instead of learning about it i simply gave up and never learnt about it, The way you explained really matters, all i did in my life was giving excuses about everything, Now i regret my decissions but i have 365 days to make it right, I am counting on myself and my life, Because if i dont change it there is no one in this freaking world who can change it for me, Thankyou Alpha, You are my hope, And please remember this you will always be my mentor who i can look upto, And alpha i have a sincere request that please never stop posting videos like this because ill always be watching all of your videos for my own success, Very few youtubers like you which exists to make men more masculine about their choices, And im Glad god showed me this video and introduced me to you, i never really share my life to anyone including my own parents, i hide 99.7% of my life, and never even try hiring any therapist, Guess what you are my own therapist now ❤.
love from India, i feel blessed that i got to see this video at that point of time in life when i needed to hear or see or needed someone to remind me of that i can still achieve all the dreams i ever dreamed of, and to leave the past behind.
Being in a relationship that might be bad for you! Not that person isn’t an amazing person but not amazing for you is a hard one to figure out when you love the person so much ❤
Aaron, I love you and appreciate all the wisdom you pour into your channel. Been following you for awhile, even had the pleasure of meeting you in Chicago (Zach's tall friend) and still respect the hell out of you. Always grateful for you and all that you do. Happy New Year brother and to new opportunities!

Why wouldn’t you look good at 33? Do you have extreme ageing condition?
I feel that i too had the unsavory experience of the divorce
Keep going!
IT'S VERY HONEST OF YOU TO SELF REFLECT IN THIS WAY . CONGRATS!
Pain Is EVERYWHERE but Adapting to it Is The ART of it 😔
Number one thing that the military taught me and has always stuck around with me…resilience. It’s the best skill a man can ever have.

Pain is in perception.
Makes or breaks you,ex military my self l@@sk8girldecks11
Thank you so much for so the moving and essential advices. Best wishes to you.
Whoever first said 'comparison is the thief of joy' was one very wise person.
Wish I was that wise.

Spot on. Never give up, keep on going, do it better. Everyone have a fantastic 2025.
I know ads pay the bills, but these last few ad-free one on one videos are the ones I miss. Keep it up Alpha! Happy New Year everybody!
Alpha M. keeping it real and helping so many guys for the past 15 years. I'll drink with you if I ever see you.
I've always really liked your channel but this "reboot" that shows your vulnerable side is even better. It makes you appear more genuine and trustworthy. All the best to you in 2025!

Always coming back to Alpha for some mental health guideline, wishing a good 2025
A video without a sponsor and lots of good advice. Cliche perhaps, but always relevant. Happy New Year!
Everyone fails, faces disappointment, rejection at some point - even the most successful people. It’s how we get up off the floor that counts.
Something I wanna say about getting in shape, I've learned this the hard way. Don't do it because of social media, or because of how other people look at you, screw those people, do it because you want to be around for the people in your life who love you, because at the end of the day those are the only people who matter.
As a wise friend told me, and I hold her close to my heart, she always says that in order to succeed, you must fail. Anyone who tells you that they always succeed and never fail is lying to you.
Thanks for all the good years and the recent re-focus. You're the best!
alpha is def back!
Top notch video, really helps to put things in perspective. Cliche or not a reminder like this is always helpful to hear and keep reiterating to oneself!

I read years ago most entrepreneurs fail 5 times or more before creating a business that is successful.
You’re fucking awesome and have a happy new year.
Being in a relationship that might be bad for you!
Not that person isn’t an amazing person but not amazing for you is a hard one to figure out when you love the person so much ❤
thank you Aaron!
