Stop Drinking Alcohol
Without Using Willpower

In The

   TAKE CONTROL PROGRAM

        Eliminate Your Desire For Alcohol & Take Back Control

Are you struggling to stop drinking alcohol
because your willpower always runs out?

What if you never felt another urge or craving to drink again?

What if you could finally say goodbye to hangovers PERMANENTLY?

What if you had 100% control of your drinking 100% of the time, and it was way easier than you ever thought possible?

The Take Control Program is a scientifically proven way to eliminate your desire so you can quit drinking alcohol without feeling miserable or deprived.

Eliminating your desire and cravings will leave you feeling completely confident and in control all of the time, and quitting will be the easiest thing you’ve ever done.

Let Me Know If This Sounds Familiar

You worry about how much or how often you drink.

The problem is every time you try to quit your willpower runs out.

No matter how often you try or how determined you are, your nagging urges won’t leave you alone.


So, you give in a little at first and have just one.

But eventually, you’re right back where you don’t want to be - hungover, confused, and maybe even ashamed too.


If you’ve ever felt this way, I want you to know that you’re
not alone, and it’s not your fault.

Conventional methods of quitting drinking rely on an ineffective behavior modification strategy that will never lead to permanent control.

Here’s How Most People Try To Stop Drinking

  1.   You wake up hungover & swear this is the last time.
  2.   You’re in control of almost every other area of your life, so you believe you can figure this out too.
  3.   The only thing you need to do is stop consuming alcohol. Simple, right?
  4.   You do okay at first & use willpower to muscle through the tough spots.
  5.   But your nagging urges won't go away, & you grow tired of fighting them off.
  6.   You entertain the idea of making an exception. Just once.
  7.   You give in. Maybe just a little at first. But each time, a little becomes more & more.
  8.   You wake up hungover again & swear this is the last time.

It's Not Your Fault

 

I’ll let you in on a little secret.

Using willpower only increases the intensity & frequency of your urges & cravings.

It will never eliminate them.


Unfortunately, most people get stuck in the no-win willpower cycle & never make it out. 

And the most popular and traditional methods of stopping drinking use this same flawed approach. 

It doesn't matter how hard you try to control your drinking using willpower.

You’re just digging a deeper & deeper hole.

What If There Was A Better, Easier Way That Actually Worked?

 

What if all you need to do is change your approach?

What if the solution is as simple as attacking the problem from the other direction?

What if instead of trying to avoid or resist your desire to drink, you eliminate your desire for alcohol?

How easy is it to take a break from something you don’t want?

It’s simple, right? 

You don’t want it, so you don’t feel any temptation for it. 

Not having it doesn’t matter, does it? 

Taking a break from something you don’t desire is a no-brainer.

Your desire to drink is made up of the thoughts and beliefs you choose.

Challenging and changing these thoughts and beliefs is the key to eliminating your desire and taking control of drinking permanently.

Just as you choose beliefs that create your desire to drink, you can choose new thoughts that lead to the permanent control you want.

What Makes This Program Different Than The Rest?

 

Most methods to help you take control of your drinking focus solely on your behavior & ignore the elephant in the room - the thoughts & feelings that create your desire to drink in the first place.

Eliminate what creates the need for your behavior, & you'll eliminate the reason you're drinking.

Addressing & removing the cause is the critical piece that will bring the long-lasting change & control you really want.


That's the key difference between this program & other stop-drinking programs.

The Take Control Program addresses both THE SYMPTOMS AND THE CAUSE.

Think of it like this. 

 

You wouldn't treat the pain you feel from having a broken arm with just an aspirin, would you?

Of course not. 

Taking aspirin only provides temporary relief from the symptoms of the pain you feel.

It doesn’t address the cause of the problem - the broken arm.

If you want to eliminate your pain completely, you need to set your broken arm in a cast so it heals permanently & stops creating the pain.

You need to treat the cause to eliminate the symptoms.


Taking an aspirin for a broken arm is the same as using willpower to control your drinking.

It only provides temporary “relief” from your symptoms. 

It doesn’t address the cause of the problem.


You need to change the thoughts you choose that create your urges & cravings to eliminate your drinking behavior permanently.


Your thoughts & desire are like a weed that keeps growing back. 

You need to pull them out, roots & all, to eliminate them.


The thoughts you're choosing that create the desire, urges, & cravings you feel are often overlooked & rarely addressed.

Permanent success comes from changing your thoughts & eliminating your desire, & it's easier than you may think.


Once your cravings & desire are gone, quitting drinking is simple.

Who Am I?

 

My name is Joe Vilardo, and I help people eliminate their desire for alcohol so they can stop drinking. 

I struggled to take control of my drinking for over 30 years. I tried everything from AA, rehab, self-help books, and seeing psychologists, psychiatrists, and therapists.

Nothing brought the lasting relief and control I wanted. 

But once I learned how to eliminate my desire for alcohol, I quit drinking alcohol permanently.

It was the easiest, most worthwhile thing I’ve ever done.

I’ve taken everything I’ve learned over the years from my degree in Psychology, my personal experience, and my life-coaching training, certification, and coaching experience, and I’ve put together the easiest, most effective, step-by-step program for eliminating your desire and taking complete control of your drinking. 

My mission is to help you take complete control of your drinking too.

My Goal For You...

 

The #1 problem I see that keeps you stuck where you are is believing the best & only path to taking control of your drinking is forcing sobriety on yourself with willpower.

This prevents you from ever being able to make any permanent progress, which, in turn, makes you feel more defeated & creates one more thing to try to escape by drinking.

I’ll help you break free from this endless cycle by showing you why you’re getting the results you’re getting & how to create what you want instead.

That’s the first step to empowering lasting change.

Once you have a clear understanding of what’s happening & why, it’s time to uncover all your thoughts & false beliefs that create your desire to drink.

You'll take each thought & analyze it so you can challenge & change it.

Then, you'll move from where you are to where you want to be, one believable thought step at a time.

Each step you take eliminates more of your desire for alcohol and makes your journey to sobriety easier and more enjoyable.

See How People Who Struggled For Years
Are Taking Control Of Their Drinking & Their Lives...

"I found Joe on Instagram. At the time, I was on the lookout for help to get me out of a spiral of regular drinking. I needed to turn a corner for myself and for others. And I was intrigued by his methodology. Joe turned out to be compassionate, tough, and logical. And very effective. We worked through all my issues and excuses - and he made me see that I have all the solutions at my own disposal. I stopped drinking immediately and found myself in a much better place within days. But more importantly, he has given me the tools to ensure this is a permanent shift. And the independence to know that I can hold myself accountable. The methods may be logical, but Joe is a great teacher and listener. And he can back it up with his own experience. This is a powerful combination. I really recommend his help. It’s transformative.
Thank you 🙏

“Joe is a great coach and teacher, and he really helped me to question so many of the beliefs I had about alcohol that I thought were just true. Changing the way I think has changed everything for me. Quitting completely finally feels possible. The results I've had while working with Joe have changed my life. I would recommend him to anyone."

Tim R. - Rockville, MD

"Coaching with Joe has been a great experience for me. I’ve been able to understand why I was stuck in my head and how to create a life I want to wake up to every day. Joe is smart, kind, funny, and easy to talk to. I know I can hand him any situation, and he’ll help me get through it. His belief in my results and amazing insight have helped me change my life."

You Have The Ability To

Take Complete Control Of Your Drinking

 

Don’t waste years of your life spinning in the never-ending cycle of urges, willpower, regret, and hangovers,

only to end up right back where you started.

 

There’s a better way!

I don't Care If...

You don’t think you can do it or that it won't work for you.

You tried to take control of your drinking in the past and failed.

You think you’re too old to change and should have tried sooner.

You think you’re too young to have an issue and need help.

You think you’re too busy & don't have enough time for the program.

Eliminating Your Desire Works. Period.

 

Simply put, the only way to change your behavior is to change the thoughts and feelings that create it.

That’s just how our brains are wired to work.

All you need is someone to guide you and help you uncover, challenge, and change the thoughts that create your desire and poof. It’s gone. 

Once your desire for alcohol is gone, quitting completely is a no-brainer. 

I can tell you with absolute certainty how you created your desire is precisely how you’ll eliminate it - one thought at a time - no matter what your situation is.

Any fears or worries you have that might be holding you back right now will melt away as you start to see the results.

Enroll in the Take Control Program right now, and let’s get started!

In Less Than Six Weeks…

You’ll have a 100% effective strategy to stop drinking alcohol permanently.

You’ll feel confident, relaxed, proud of yourself, and free.

You’ll say goodbye forever to urges, hangovers, and failed promises to quit.

Or You Can Keep Doing What You've Been Doing
And Getting What You've Been Getting


The consequence of not making a change right now could be that things get worse.
The people & things you enjoy could begin to disappear one by one until you're left with nothing but regret, self-loathing, & shame, all because you decided to keep doing the same thing that has never worked.

 

It's Time To Do Something Different

If You’re Like Me…

One of the biggest things that kept me from trying something different was that I didn’t believe in myself.

I didn’t think I could change, & I didn’t think this would work for me.

I had tried & failed at so many different things I doubted I’d ever be able to take control.

So I completely understand if you doubt your ability to do this. 

I’m going to eliminate any risk you may feel because you doubt yourself & take that burden on for you by giving you a guarantee.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

You have exactly one year from the day you enroll in the Take Control Program to use everything you learn and achieve your desired result. That’s 365 days.

If you decide you aren't satisfied at any point during that time, simply email me at joe@choosenewthoughts.com to get your complete and full refund. I can do this because I believe in the Take Control Program that much.

All I ask is that you show me you’ve done the work. Why do I ask this? You won’t get results without taking action and using what you learn. I don’t want to waste any of my time with someone purchasing my program and not using what they learn. And you’re not one of those people. So you don’t have anything to worry about. 

Be open and honest with yourself and me, do the work, and you will get results. It’s that simple.
