    It's so interesting listening to hyper-successful people. There are traits that are thrown around like 1)Grit, being relentless and never giving up 2)Talent 3)Luck, but 4th thing that I wish someone would focus on is how many lie, nonstop to get where they are. Jessie lied, a lot, making up his credentials, even his identity to get meetings with people and get high power people to trust him. Now of course it doesn't matter and it's a funny story b/c he "made it" but I basically think almost anyone who reaches this level of wealth or success did so by being pretty dishonest on many levels.

      Thanks for noticing. I thought I was the only one who noticed the lack of integrity. And notice how they are friends now. Bird of a feather flock together.

      I believe that when the main driver is self satisfaction, any means go.
      That's why we should all be weary of what we wish for. And chose wisely when that time comes.

    While mastering discipline and doing hard things has tremendous growth opportunities, soon enough it will become ones gage. It seems then the most hard thing to do would be to let go and be easy with yourself. I’ve seen this in my own life as I mastered discipline and then became addicted to it. From there you can amp it up but with enough awareness you will find you are running/hiding from yourself. To truly be present with yourself in the moment and what will give you the most growth/healing in that moment is the true discipline. If our behavior is not rooted in love and joy- what is the point? ☯️

    I haven't listened to this particular episode yet but I'm actually commenting on your back pain that you mentioned in the last episode. I don't know whether you read these comments or not but my recommendation is look into the work of Dr John Sarno. It's pretty fascinating and I would also argue that his work is based in science. He has since passed away but I think you would find people like him Dr Dan Ratner and numerous other people who Now understand the connection between the mind and body and chronic and severe symptoms including severe pain. Anyway I hope you feel better and love the podcast!

    As honest and vulnerable as he is, top 1%ers still don't get how "exclusive" and "elitist" , how"first world" having the freedom to talk about this and totally having sherpas like Goggins sounds. But it still has an audience, and that fuels indemnity from the global family. Us, not them

  • @tishcrawford-jones3781

    I really like this podcast (love all of them to be honest) the only thing that struck me is the potential difference of a man’s view that he has that much control of his own time. That he has the power to divide his time in such a way. He shares ‘his’ time with his wife & children. As a working mum, with a working husband, I do find the same can’t be translated to my situation. That divide is still a shame.
    I have that drive and I have that fearlessness too… i just don’t have the control over my time.
    I hope some guys listening to this give their partners the chance to control theirs 🤞🏼

    Man, I'd love for Goggins to be my roommate for a month or were my personal mentor. I'm going to try doing more challenging goals. My whole life is mostly filled with shortcuts that has stunted my growth severely. It wasn't until I was 30 (I'm 38 now) that I realized I needed to stop seeking a life of extreme comfort and to start getting more comfortable with being uncomfortable. In my 20s, I was an idling slacker who thought creating a life of super low stress and easiness was the key to a happy life. I thought it was senseless how people sought to do challenging things like run marathons or even apply to prestigious colleges. I thought it was merely to feed the ego and have bragging rights, and I was too enlightened to suffer through challenges. But I now totally understand the benefits of challenges now. I wasted my 20s doing almost literally nothing. But what's done is done, and I will continue my journey of challenges!

    Something about Jesse's story is deeply disturbing to me. Loved the Goggins part, but the origin story for Jessie sounds like peak capitalism....make money without taking into account the externalities. Be dishonest to get your foot in the door. Worship at the altar of personality cults. Ignore the tragedy of the public commons. Do we need coconut water? No. What is the carbon foot print of private jets? Huge. Sad.

    • @jtcash44
      @jtcash44 Před 2 měsíci

      actually, the carbon footprint of jets is not large at all. if you want to tear people down because they were successful with something we don't need...you're going to exhaust yourself bringing down so many people. A fool's errand. Do you realize how many things in our lives we don't need?

    So basically a key to this guy’s success is just deceiving and manipulating people. “Hahaha funny story man!” What a joke.

    • @marcusmcg9083
      @marcusmcg9083 Před rokem

      Have to do it to get to the top.
      Unless you’re ridiculously lucky.
      Born into upper middle class
      Or extremely talented - anomaly level talented which only really equates in sport and maybe music
      To get to the top you need to have very lose morals , because say 70 percent of people don’t try very hard and are happy to settle for just turning up to work.
      Then 30 percent have huge drive, work very hard and have massive ambition. Intelligence will give 5 percent of them and advantage but the other 25 percent are all competing for the same pool of jobs and business space and there just isn’t enough. However deception, seduction and manipulation are traits only a few have narcissists , people high in psychopathy and Machiavellianism will use these advantages/ personality flaws to wins.
