  • What would you talk organizational psychologist and author of Give and Take, Adam Grant, about? Everything! This was one of those conversations that went in so many directions…and I learned so much. This is … A Bit of Optimism.

    How nice to hear two people who love to hear themselves speak almost as much as the people who follow them do.

    I’m glad to see a conversation like this happen in real time. It was a combination of both of your talks and books that got me to start a Masters in I/O Psych and now be pursuing my PhD.
    Almost every paper I have written or incremental growth in research I’ve worked on has been couched in your combined works.

    Yay! This was a blast! Simon, thank you for starting the second season this year. Gentlemen, thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas with us today and for providing the names of the authors to studies, books, and lectures you reference who have help build on the concept and ideas shared in todays podcast. I would absolutely love to attend a conference where you both speak on your own topics and then come together to discuss and build off each others ideas and interact with ideas brought to you by the audience participants. .

    Really enjoyed this conversation. Huge fan of both of you. And as you say! Me being a fan of your work (which for the record I discovered before Adam’s), does not take away or lessen my admiration and appreciation of his.

    One of the most fascinating and informative podcast this year that I listened to by far. Two brilliant minds this sincerely making me so joyous inside. I know sounds pretentious and slightly annoying. Nevertheless, that is how I feel after listening to this episode. Love it! Thanks, Simon. 🥰✌️

    Wow. I can’t even begin to describe how much I’ve enjoyed listening to this episode! I can already see myself listening to it over and over again! So much insight and food for thought packed in those 52 minutes! And for that hour, I completely forgot to be depressed by this pandemic! Thank you! ❤️

    Simon and Adam, what a great episode! What a great and inspiring conversation! I love Adam's work and I relate myself and my way to be more like Simon. And it's great to see people so different getting along with respect and admiration. I do believe in what you said, that I can put out the work and let people judge for themselves. Thank you guys

    Most of the shadows in our lives are caused by us blocking our Sunshine. We stand in our own shadows and wonder why it is so dark. Do not be afraid to show your light. If it is too bright for people, tell them to wear sunglasses 🖖

    • @maoribaca2655
      @maoribaca2655 Před 3 lety

      Until you understand the value of the shadow. Sometimes the searchlight is to bright to find the things that are always right with us, truth, love, peace come when we give up our pursuit of the light and realize you already have it.

    I am only here after searching for days because of the nemesis story. I first heard it from Tom Bilyeu's interview, then from shorts a person commenting his name is Adam Grant now I'm fans to both of them.👋🏿👋🏿👋🏿

    Two of my mentors (they just don't know it) inspire as always. I'm perplexed by Simon's sign off on every episode a quote from Jerry Springer. I can't think of two different people.

    Simon speaks more from his heart and his wisdom and Adam is more like a researcher and fact checker, if he reflects on everything he research and analyze himself he can know himself better and would be able to define himself and connect to his inner voice more fluently. I think so.

    Simon, there's a section on the bookstore dedicated to help others: it's the gospel, by Jesus. Also, "The Gospel according to spiritism" by Allan Kardec

    Criticism is the best thing you can do to others and yourself, as long as it is done respectfully, not with an agenda to promote yourself and with seeing the other.
    I think criticizing had been distorted to be a practice of antagonizing and self adornment. Which is exactly the opposite of what criticism means.

    Simon makes the same mistake all males and now all humans do, confusing competition with opposition. Competition is not the same thing as opposition. Opposition is unnatural. Nothing in nature wars with anything, including its own species.
    Complements complete each other. They come together and become something more than either can ever be alone.
    Opposites oppose each other. They battle each other. War against each other.
    Opposition always makes both sides less. It always has a winner and a looser. Opposites come together and destroy each other. Or one side destroys the other and that isn’t winning.
    You can imagine that it does. You can imagine that winning some game makes you have some higher value for gold and attention but that doesn’t change the reality that you are not. All you are doing is destroying yourself in reality. Gold and attention. Doing it for the love of riches, or fame, or power feels good yes, feels like what it is, love.
    But not all love is the same and the Dark Loves of Destruction as the seven you proud fools have created a world of games to attain destroy. That is not my opinion, not my theory, faith or law. Not my copy of someone else’s answer.
    There is only one love that matters. Only one love that opens the Hearts door named Soul. Only one kind of love that is True.
    And the others destroy. Calling them Fame or politic or celebrity doesn’t change that it is still just Greed, Envy, Lust and of course Pride’s love. Should have done your own work instead of copying everything.
