Why your rewards are sabotaging your results. Many successful men use "earned" exceptions to justify poor nutrition after a big win or a closed deal.
In this episode, Marwan Killu breaks down the "Internal Negotiation" trap, explains why transactional thinking destroys physical standards, and shows you how to celebrate success without unraveling your progress.

"I deserve this." Four words that undo everything.
You've done the work. Hit the milestone. Closed the deal. And then it starts—the internal negotiation that sounds reasonable but opens a trapdoor you didn't see coming.
The Incremental Drift
This episode breaks down why "deserve" is the lie that unravels high-performing men. It doesn't happen catastrophically; it happens incrementally, one justified exception at a time. When celebration and self-sabotage look identical, the man without a standard loses every time.
In this episode, we discuss:
Alignment over Achievement
This isn't about denying rest or refusing celebration. It's about understanding the difference between what you deserve and what's aligned with who you're becoming. If you've ever found yourself back at square one after a big win, this is why.
Iron Suits — Where Strength Wears the Crown.
🛑 Stop "rewarding" your hard work with physical decline. You’ve told yourself that after a 12-hour day or a high-stakes negotiation, you "deserve" that high-calorie meal or that extra drink.
But look at the ROI: you are rewarding your professional success by sabotaging your health, your energy, and your confidence. If your reward system is built on habits that make you weaker, you aren't celebrating—you’re retreating.
I recorded a private 15-minute training that reveals how high-level men rewire their reward systems to fuel performance instead of fat storage. Learn the exact framework to enjoy your success without the "success-gut" that usually comes with it.
