26 Austin Dunham lives by what he calls the COP theory. For him, every day is about consistency, obsession, and progression. “It helps when you’re passionate about something,” he said. “When you eat, sleep, and breathe it, then it becomes easy to live it day in, day out. If you’re not passionate about whatever goal you’re setting, you’re not going to stick to it and follow through.” Dunham is not like most undergrads. The AV student does not binge watch Netflix. He spends his free time reading books on business. He does not go out to eat unless it is on the weekends with friends. His diet does not include late- night frozen pizzas or other junk foods that are staples for many his age. He only drinks water and sticks to lean proteins and healthy carbs.
