Trapped by the rat race of life with no end in sight means that this episode is for you.By the end of our conversation, I really want you to know how to beat the odds and secure your financial future. I have the privilege of hosting Morgan Housel, renowned author and financial behaviorist, best known for his insightful perspectives on personal finance, wealth creation, and his bestselling book, The Psychology of Money.He joins me for a rich conversation about his distilled insights into a simple yet powerful formula for wealth building that could reset your financial insecurity.Our conversation isn’t just about wealth creation, it’s about understanding your desires, abilities, and risk tolerance - the core elements of Housel’s wealth creation formula. He makes navigating the non-intuitive world of compounding interest possible with easy to digest principles.The greatest irony? We all crave autonomy, yet we seek explicit directions to achieve it. The journey to wealth is straightforward yet polluted with cultural expectations and envy - two formidable obstacles that most find impossible to overcome.There is light at the end of the tunnel, and it begins with understanding and applying these principles. Let's embark on this journey together!Check out Morgan’s latest book, Same As Ever, A Guide to What Never Changes: amazon.com/Same-Ever-Guide-Never-Changes/dp/0593332709 Chapter Markers:[00:00] Don’t Die Broke[00:27] The Warren Buffett Secret[10:29] Exposing Expectations & Envy[24:27] Incentivized Ruin Or Riches[39:52] Scared Rich Or Tortured[44:28] Emotions Don’t Build Wealth[57:33] Duplicating Success Stops Here[1:12:54] Change Is Possible, But Trauma…[1:29:21] First Time Home Buyer Cliff[1:38:24] Your Game Play for a Recession[1:48:54] Psychology of “Enough”[2:02:10] A Fragile Chaotic World[2:17:03] 2 Things To Navigate The ChaosMorgan Housel Quotes:“One of the most dangerous things you can do is take your cues and get your advice from people who are playing a different game than you are.”“Average returns sustained for an above average amount of time will lead to magic, [...] If you can just be average for 20 or 30 years you’re going to end up in the top 2% of investors.”“The reason there is opportunity in investment markets is because most people are doing it wrong.”“Every dollar of saving that you have is a piece of your future that you own, [...] and you can flip that around and say that every dollar of debt that you have is a piece of your future that somebody else owns.”“For a lot of people their income has doubled but their expectations have tripled and they feel worse off.”“If your expectations grow with your prosperity, you’ll never be happy.”“Bad financial behavior has always existed, and I think it will always exist because of the natural human emotions of envy and wanting to one up your neighbor and rising expectations.“They wake up every morning and they're terrified. They have this big goal that they need to meet. They have this audacious thing they're trying to accomplish and they're not there yet, [...] every day they wake up, tortured.”Follow Morgan HouselWebsite: morganhousel.com Twitter: twitter.com/morganhousel Instagram:instagram.com/morganhousel Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-morgan-housel-podcast/id1675310669 Follow Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com Twitter: twitter.com/TomBilyeu Instagram: instagram.com/tombilyeu

Middle Class Is Wiped Out! - Arthur Hayes’ Warning On Money, Bitcoin, War, China & Economic Collapse Tom Bilyeu 2024-03-26 | Thank you to our sponsors: ZBiotics: 15% off ZBiotics: Link: bit.ly/ZImpactLumen: Get $50 off your Lumen: Link: go.lumen.me/impactFrom the gradual process of de-dollarization and the potential revaluation of gold, to strategies for preserving wealth and navigating the volatile seas of the cryptocurrency world, this conversation is a goldmine for anyone interested in safeguarding their financial sovereignty.Arthur Hayes is the unflinching co-founder of BitMEX and a pivotal figure in the crypto world, known for his controversial yet insightful perspectives. Through his studies and observations, Arthur Hayes has evolved into a thoughtful commentator on the dynamics of power in a world teetering on the brink of repeating the mistakes of its predecessors. In today’s episode, Arthur Hayes and I go deep into Bitcoin, war, and the impending economic collapse. We touch on: - Bitcoin and financial sovereignty- Risks associated with centralized financial systems- Government fiscal strategies and investor mindsets- Decentralization and asset utilization- Anticipating and accepting the role of volatility- The significance of understanding market mechanisms and narratives- The inflation and taxation vulnerabilities of conventional assets- The role of gold and digital currencies in the future economic landscape- Strategies for trading and investing in cryptocurrenciesGet ready as we unpack the profound connections between bitcoin and the financial equivalent of the second amendment, and why controlling your own money is more crucial than ever in the face of centralized system risks.Chapter Markers:[0:00] Essence of cryptocurrency[18:51] Doubts about the financial future[40:04] Crypto brings relief [1:09:15] Microstrategy, ETF, and institutional buyers[1:26:04] Fiat liquidity dynamics & money printing[1:59:56] Bitcoin and ETH volatility[2:25:36] Where to invest & tradePowerful Insights From Arthur Hayes:"For those who just want to close their eyes and buy something that's crypto safe, not saying that there's no risk here, I would say bitcoin and ethereum are where you should start your journey.""That is why if the government and the elites want to stay in sort of this financial position, the ETF is the best thing that they can do because people believe that they've achieved financial freedom when they actually have just handed over fees to the same people who have been fucking them for the past 80 years anyways.""So if you looked at the regional bank stock index, or KBW index, which is all US banks, they're getting crushed going into late October of last year. And so what happened? The US treasury and Janet Yellen, she said, okay, I'm going to save this market. I'm going to issue a bunch of short term debt and take money out of the reverse repo program at the Fed, which is just this $2 trillion facility of cash just sitting there that's outside of the financial system. And she offered a higher rate on short term treasury bills to entice this money out, which reflates the system, gives more credit money into the system.""People shouldn't be dying the way they're dying based on the shitty food that we eat and the over prescribed medicines. And that's why people need, oh, I need to have this health care because everybody gets sick. Why does everyone get sick? Because we eat fucking processed food and all this dog shit that's put out to us as healthy is a reason why everybody spends the majority of their money in the last two years of their life dying of horrible cancers and heart disease and all this kind of shit, right? We're poisoning ourselves every single day with these fucked up food chains."Follow Arthur Hayes:Substack: cryptohayes.substack.com X: twitter.com/CryptoHayes Instagram: instagram.com/arthur__hayes Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

Life Is A Simulation Prison! - Death, Parallel Universes, Spacetime & Consciousness | Donald Hoffman Tom Bilyeu 2024-03-22 | Thank you to today’s sponsor:Aura: Two Free Weeks Link: bit.ly/3KJd7mC.Unlock your potential and transform your life: bit.ly/42VcWfMEver wondered if we're living in a simulation? Or questioned the true potential of AI and its consciousness? In today’s episode of Impact Theory, Donald Hoffman, a cognitive scientist and consciousness expert, is here to challenge your understanding of reality and consciousness. Hoffman’s proposed theory of consciousness flips your everyday assumptions about what reality is on their head, arguing that our perceptions of what we experience in the physical world aren’t as real as you’d like to think.Do you think it’s possible life is a simulation and we’re in some version of a virtual reality headset?The metaphor of the virtual headset explains why our experiences are limited and there are things like freewill that we never truly experience. And if that’s not heavy enough for you, Hoffman brings mathematical equations into the picture to explain that all consciousness is mathematically structured.Some of the topics we touch on include: - Is cause and effect real?- The God hypothesis and consciousness- Why your reality isn’t real- The truth behind consciousness- How evolution hides the matrix - Testing reality & spacetime- Can you actually escape the matrix?Whether you're keen on technology, interested in the mysteries of consciousness, or just love a good intellectual challenge, this episode is a complete crash course into the world of Donald Hoffman and the illusion of space, time and reality.Hoffman's insights can help you see the world from a radically different perspective, inspiring you to question your assumptions, and rethink your understanding of “reality”.Chapter Markers:[0:00] You are an avatar[34:39] Space & time isn’t real? [1:16:22] How you live in the matrix[2:02:37] How evolution hides the truth[2:36:50] Why you’re not self-aware [3:22:51] Consciousness & the beyondPowerful Insights From Donald Hoffman:“Behind spacetime there is an incredibly complicated realm to explore.”“Consciousness is the ability to have experiences like the taste of chocolate.”“What we are, are avatars of the one effectively and the one awareness is exploring all of its possibilities through different avatars.”“No system can completely know itself.” "You may be smarter than Einstein, but if you don't actually put yourself using the tools of mathematics and so forth, that genius will never actually flower in the sense of reaching all the potential implications of what it means. And so that's why we do science the way we do it, with mathematical precision, because for two reasons. If our ideas are good, we probably don't understand all their implications, and so the math will come back and it'll be our teacher. And second, certainly our ideas have their limits, and it's hard for us to understand what the limits are.""What we believe does not really affect fundamentally what we see."Follow Donald Hoffman:X: twitter.com/donalddhoffmanLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/donalddhoffman Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

Get ready to rethink traditional approaches to living as we dive deep into topics like:- Why Ozempic is an algorithm - Treatments for penis health- “Don’t Die” philosophy a new religion?- The impact of algorithms on our future- AI alignment and extending life through cellular reprogramming- Superintelligence, society, and ethics- How AI can change our reality and perception- The challenge of aligning human behavior with the greater good- The catastrophic consequences of getting AI engineering wrong- The role of religion and tradition in problem-solving versus practical actions- Concerns about the loss of autonomy and authoritarianism due to AI- The future possibilities with AI, consciousness, and technological integration- Technology's influence on expanding conscious statesThis is a pivotal moment in history that people will look back on in the year 2500 – the question is, will we fuck it up? Chapter Markers:[0:00] Let the algorithms control you [30:25] Control over AI, climate, and disasters[55:20] Unimaginable & unexpected solutions[1:05:44] A revolution is coming[1:24:21] Trade-offs of AI decision making[1:45:30] First principles vs. zeroeth thinking[2:11:19] Digital time perception and hacking to slow time[2:40:24] Quantifying penis healthPowerful Quotes From Bryan Johnson:"I would much rather have an algorithm take care of my health than wellness than I would myself.""We don't understand that death can be conquered. It is a reasonable thing to say that's possible. And if you do that, then the idea of becoming some kind of expansive, omnipotent kind of intelligence, we don't know what the limitation is.""Right now, it's about the future of the species and it's about this contemplation of we're probably NOT going to make it through this moment if we can't figure out how to not to annihilate ourselves.""No one thought that in early New York, when horses were the primary mode of transport and manure was the biggest problem in New York, polluting the Hudson and making everyone sick, no one thought the model T would be the solution to horse manure.

What part of it do I control? What part of it do I have no control over, [...] I have to figure out how to increase my market value or else I’m going to get crushed.”“If you’re going to spend more time on Netflix more time watching all these shows, [...] if you’re going to spend more time on that than building value for yourself, learning new skill sets, yes the market’s not going to favor you the next 18 to 36 months.”“If you have fear, respect, and love, that boy has the highest likelihood of doing something big with his life.”“If you want to be the guy of the guys, of other guys, you can’t go by the standard as everybody else does.”“Choose your enemies wisely – it’s business planning for the audacious few, not the timid majority.”“If you’re going to do something big, you’re automatically going to have some enemies.”Follow Patrick Bet-DavidWebsite: patrickbetdavid.comInstagram: instagram.com/patrickbetdavidTwitter: twitter.com/patrickbetdavid Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

The Smart, Simple Way To Stay Safe Online.Unlock your potential and transform your life: bit.ly/42VcWfMWe can agree we are in a time of transition, so what is the next best move? In today’s episode of Impact Theory, we’ve got a hot debate between economists and investing experts Raoul Pal and Peter Schiff as we discuss Bitcoin and the future of the economy. Raoul Pal has become a legend in global economics as one of the most successful former hedge fund managers (retired at 36), and his insights into the current recession, global economy, and volatile markets are well respected.Peter Schiff is a seasoned Wall Street prognosticator known for his spot on predictions of the stock market performance, including gold, commodities, and the mighty dollar.In this debate, we’re touching on: - Value vs. price - Potential currency collapse and its effects- Bitcoin's allure and the comparison with gold standard- Market impact predictions of the 2024 election- AI's potential to alleviate economic problems- Differing ways to prepare for hyperinflation or financial repression- Asset value in a volatile market- The growing national debt and potential hyperinflation- Historical patterns of financial repression- Blockchain technology and digital asset utilization- The future of Social Security This episode is a must watch for anyone who wants to look deep into the debates between gold and digital assets, investment strategies amid economic uncertainty, and the possibility of a great depression.Chapter Markers:[0:00] Let’s Agree on the Problem[32:58] Digital vs. Physical Assets[1:04:02] Eroding Value of Bitcoin [1:56:55] What About the National Debt? [2:07:19] Impact of AI and Robots on Economy[2:37:17] Ideas Causing the Underlying Problem Powerful Insights From the Debate:“Instead of taking your money by taxing you openly and directly or even indirectly through a sales tax, [the government] surreptitiously robs you of your purchasing power by just creating money out of thin air, usually with a complicit central bank."— Peter Schiff"I've always liked gold, but gold has not done particularly well in recent years. Against debasement on a globalized basis, it still works beautifully well as a global currency, and against global debasement over time. It works. But the really strong debasement we've been having in recent years, it just hasn't done well enough"— Raoul Pal"So I think people who are getting out of the dollar or the euro and buying bitcoin have jumped out of the frying pan into the fire."— Peter Schiff "What's harder is to say, what the hell does an economy mean after 2030, when you've got endless AI and robots and AGI? What what value do you provide in that world?"— Raoul Pal "Because the free market is trying to lower prices by increasing productivity, the government is raising them by creating inflation. And so it's a dance. But to the extent that we can have a huge surge in productivity that's driven by AI or robotics or a combination of the two, that's actually a good thing."— Peter Schiff “And I just urge all of us to just make sure that we don't get obsessed by our own mental models, because they will change, and the world changes. And sometimes we can be dead wrong, and sometimes we can be dead right."— Raoul Pal"Our ability to stimulate with QE, with inflation is predicated on the false belief that the fed could shrink the balance sheet, withdraw the liquidity, normalize interest rates, we can pay off the debt. When the markets come to the unfortunate realization that that's not true, then the bottom drops out and we can't kick the can down the road anymore because there's no more road."— Peter SchiffFollow Raoul Pal:Website: realvision.comTwitter: twitter.com/RaoulGMILinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/raoul-pal-real-visionYouTube: youtube.com/@RealVisionFinance/featured Follow Peter Schiff: Website: schiffsovereign.comPodcast: schiffradio.com X: twitter.com/PeterSchiffYouTube: youtube.com/@peterschiff/featuredFollow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

Konstantin Kisin is a comedian, social commentator and podcast host of the show TRIGGERnometry, and tackles the harder conversations around woke culture, war, and highly sensitive politics most people avoid. We’re challenging the status quo, breaking down complex ideas, and striving to understand how we can all play by a better set of rules for success.Topics we discuss include: - Western culture values that should be preserved- the danger of a toxic culture that would rather complain about injustices that work on finding real solutions- woke culture & victimhood incentivized in young people- how America is on the brink of becoming the next collapsing Roman Empire- the masculinity debate- revolutionary tactics versus incremental improvement- the dynamics of free speech in society- influence of women on men's success- the historical pattern of societal stability and disruption- the role of resilience in overcoming adversityBuckle up as we uncover why we might need a new set of rules – not just to survive, but to seize opportunities and safely navigate the dangers of our rapidly evolving world.Chapter Markers:[0:00] Masculinity Scale & Alpha vs. Beta [47:37] Triangle of Evil[1:18:40] How Civilizations Collapse[2:09:22] That Ruins Every Society[2:41:15] More Pain And War Is Coming[3:10:16] The Path To Fulfillment Powerful Insights From Konstantin Kisin:“Do not be a useful idiot. Do not violate your own moral standards and your own moral rules for the sake of the greater good. There is no greater good than your own moral standards. There is no greater good than that.” “As someone who has experienced racism, I don’t think it should be illegal to be racist or to say racist things. It should be illegal to discriminate against people because of their race, [...] but people should be allowed to have and express pretty much any opinion in my view.”“In many ways I would argue that free speech is unnatural and that’s why it has to be fought for repeatedly.”“We’re a moral paralysis in the west, ...at a level of society we’re incapable of understanding that reality.”“The biggest problem with blank slate-ism is the attempt to pretend that human nature doesn’t exist.”Follow Konstantin Kisin:Website: http://konstantinkisin.com Podcast: triggerpod.co.ukX: twitter.com/KonstantinKisinFollow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

Dr. K is known as “the healthy gamer”. When he was in college he realized he was addicted to video games. He moved to India to become a monk and ultimately went to medical school and became a psychiatrist. Today, he combines Eastern therapies (like yoga, meditation and Ayurveda) with classic psychotherapy to help people deal with technology addictions like video games, porn, etc. We are going deep into topics like: - How & why technology is so addicting - Understanding WHERE desire comes from- How attachment & baggage are holding you back- What porn does to your brain - Men’s responsibility to respond to domestication, women’s expectations, and suffering- Why frame of reference, reality, and focusing on yourself are the way out - The 1 key to getting over addiction - Tips to overcome technology’s addictive nature - The power of detachment and transcending achievement- Righteous fury, comparisons, and the ego conditioning your mind - The power of meditation and empathy Technology addiction is real, and it won’t be easy to overcome, but this episode gives you the keys to what you can do to combat the brain-numbing, addictive nature of social media, video games, and even dating apps.Chapter Markers:[0:00] Conflict Behind Willpower[24:59] Let Go & Get Authentic [41:32] Technology Addiction & Porn[1:18:45] Biology Affects Behavior[1:46:23] Seeing Beyond Our Frame[2:12:16] Help with Your Skills & Hard Work[2:45:02] Investment, Attachments & Meditation Powerful Insights From Dr. K:"It's not willpower, it's awareness of a conflict that we subjectively experience as willpower, which is kind of hard to understand.""So we see this where there's like, basically you need a stronger and stronger stimulus to chase that old dopaminergic rush...""And I think at some point someone is going to combine all of this stuff into a girlfriend that throws temper tantrums, that is there for you, maybe even kind of pretend cheats on you, and then has all this psychologically activating stuff along with physical feedback, flashlights, virtual reality, it'll all get integrated, and then the human race is fucked.""The basic reason I think mental health is moving in the wrong direction, is that the institutional powers that understand human behavior, our understanding of human behavior on the scientific or population level, has grown so sophisticated, but our understanding of ourselves within us has come to an all-time low.""I know this sounds crazy, but the moment that human beings start to say, I don't need to be heard, it's okay for me to not get my needs met, and I'm willing to still support someone else, that's the moment things will turn around." "Because what happens is in puberty, you have a fundamental change of your biology, of your hormones, of your tissues, of your brain, that allows you to have an experience that you could literally would be impossible for you to have before. So in meditation, the process of doing esoteric Sadhana's spiritual practice, when you do this, you go through something like puberty, but in the non material plane, in the spiritual realm, you go through a transformation that allows you to experience things that were literally unfathomable before."Follow Dr. Alok Kanojia:Website: healthygamer.ggTwitch: twitch.tv/HealthyGamer_GGYouTube: youtube.com/healthygamer_gg Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeuIf you want to dive deeper into my content, search through every episode, find specific topics I've covered, and ask me questions.

All of our deep desires are complex. All of our solutions are complicated, and we're throwing complicated solutions at complex problems and we're not getting happier.”“The first one is that there is meaning. You need to find it and live up to it.”“The essence of consciousness is one that gives you incredible transcendental information, but at the same time, it programs in a whole lot of misery.”“People who have the earliest success, the mind blowing success, they're the most likely to be unsatisfied with their lives at the end of their lives.”“The ultimate entrepreneurial experience is to give away your heart and to take a chance, [...] Fall in love. That's entrepreneurship.”“Humans are not intended to decline. Decline is hugely painful because happiness comes from progress. Unhappiness comes from regress.” “The falling tide of your life looks like you're losing everything, get your line in the water, because that's the most fertile period of your life.” “Happiness and unhappiness are not opposites. They're not. They're different experiences.” “If you're denied the flow state that uniquely comes to you through creativity, you're gonna you're gonna be practically suicidal.”“Love is the opposite of fear, love will actually neutralize inappropriate fear or excessive fear.” “You can be in permanent disagreement, but in love equilibrium, we just have to be people that can do that.” “You got to figure out which one you are and you must surround yourself with what you're not” Follow Arthur Brooks:Website: arthurbrooks.com X: twitter.com/arthurbrooks Instagram: instagram.com/arthurcbrooksFollow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeuInstagram: instagram.com/tombilyeu

Who's to say what's right or wrong?""It's no wonder that we believe in the union of diversity when we believe that a man can be a woman. If we believe those things, there's nothing we won't swallow, no camel too big to go down our throats, no totalitarian lie we won't rush to embody."“There's a vertical axis of orientation upward towards God, mediated by tradition, and there's a horizontal axis that's part of the ongoing conversation and consensus of the moment.""And so the world of images is going to have the same networked structure as the world of words that the LLMs have modeled. Soon the LLms will be able to model the world of images and soon they'll be able to lay them on top of one another.""...everything you give away, you'll get back if you give it away in the right spirit.""You give more than you're called upon to give, even to your enemies.

A Generation Poorer Than Their Parents! - Why Men Are Lost, Lazy, Broke & Single | Scott Galloway Tom Bilyeu 2024-01-30 | Disclosure: This episode was sponsored by Aura. This post may contain affiliate links or links to the sponsor’s website. If you purchase an item using this affiliate link, Impact Theory may receive commission. You can try Aura for free for two weeks at bit.ly/3KJd7mC. The Smart, Simple Way To Stay Safe Online.This is a must-watch if you're wondering why it seems like men today just can't catch a break. In the next hour you’re going to get a break down of exactly how a generation of men are now poorer than their parents, feeling lost, broke, and still single.To help me tackle this topic today is Professor Scott Galloway, the brilliant mind behind "No Mercy No Malice," who has the uncanny ability to dissect the troubling trends facing modern men: less dating, no sex, being poor and not having meaningful relationships. His take on the shifts in our modern culture and their impact on young men's financial and emotional states is eye-opening. And while he’s not saying it’s time for male affirmative action, he is saying its seriously past time for real, actionable solutions.Societal structures, from education to technology, are stacked against stacked men, and we exist in a society that shames men for their ambition, labels them toxic, avoids the uncomfortable questions and passively supports their financial and social frustrations.We're peeling back the layers to unveil why guys feel lost, hopeless, and lonely.But here's the thing—we're not about wallowing in the problem; we're chasing down solutions. From social media regulation and revamping AI governance, to hands-on vocational programs, we're advocating steps to elevate men and, by extension, society.Remember, your north star should be fulfilling and embrace the challenges. Without hard things to conquer, life just feels crappy. Prepare to get metaphorically taller and rediscover your purpose. Chapter Markers:[00:27] Introduction[00:27] Lonely Broke Young Men [26:18] Pornographic Tech & Idolizing AU[49:27] Making Men Productive AgainQUOTES:“While boys are physically stronger, girls are emotionally and mentally much stronger. So, you have some societal factors producing emotionally weak men.”“I think we’ve done a great job lifting women up, focusing and trying to address some of the injustices and biases that women have had to endure for a long time. I wouldn’t say that we’ve overcorrected, but I think that people don’t have a sympathetic ear to young men.”“Empathy is not a zero sum game.” “When you have a whole cohort of young men who are not going to college, not having the same economic opportunities and have no or little prospects for romantic relationships, you generate the most dangerous person in the world, and that is a lonely broke young man.”“I’m a technology optimist, but I’m also worried that we’re so fascinated by technology and we suffer in the United States what I call an idolatry of innovators.”“The cake has never been bigger, we’re just slicing it differently.”“As parents we use so many sanitary wipes on our child’s lives that they don’t develop their own immunities.”Follow Scott Galloway: Website: profgalloway.com YouTube: youtube.com/@TheProfGShow Instagram: instagram.com/profgalloway Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com X: twitter.com/TomBilyeu Instagram: instagram.com/tombilyeu

Transform Your Life in 90 Days: Take The Impact 90 Challenge bit.ly/47kCfrZI had a super compelling conversation with the legendary biologist Robert Sapolsky to challenge the concept of free will and pull together what can be done with these ideas when you feel lazy and lack purpose or direction.We dive into the unsettling reality that everything we perceive may just be a simulation, and how evolution has optimized us for survival, not accuracy. But don't despair! Even without god or free will, we discuss how you can still massively improve your life. We explore the societal implications of free will being an illusion and why acting as if it exists could be beneficial for your mental health. Don't miss this riveting conversation that will challenge your perspective and empower you to leverage your biology for self-improvement.Renowned biologist Robert Sapolsky, presents a compelling argument that free will is an illusion that is deeply rooted in our biology. His ground-breaking insights, as detailed in his book "Determined," challenge conventional wisdom and reshape our understanding of human behavior, asserting that we are in fact products of our biology, not the autonomous agents of free will you believe yourself to be.If you’re on the edge of your seat wanting more, check out Robert Sapolsky’s latest book, Determined, A Life Without Free Will: amazon.com/Determined-Science-Life-without-Free/dp/0525560971 Chapter Markers:[00:00] Introductions to No Free Will[00:30] Misconception of Change[17:47] Know Your Machine-ness[26:42] Leveraging Biology & Self-Esteem[40:17] Don’t Get Trapped By Illusion[52:00] Unprovoked Violence[1:02:50] The Biology of Monogamy[1:11:57] Trapped By Your Biology[1:32:33] Too Many Dopamine Highs[1:46:00] Societal Isolation Thought-Provoking Insights From Robert Sapolsky:“Where people get into trouble is where change has occurred they conclude thus, I chose to change.”“Look at a disease of people who are not able to do self-deception and who are not able to rationalize away reality, and what that is, is clinical depression. These are people who are pathologically prone to seeing the world the way it is.”“People will work harder if they have good self-esteem. People will be able to put their shortcomings into proper perspective and realize that something bad is bad, but it’s not their entire world.”“The issue isn’t that testosterone makes aggression more likely and that that’s the problem. The problem is that we hand out status for aggression so readily.”“If you’ve got a system that resets that easily, by definition, whatever was an amazing wonderful surprise yesterday is going to feel like something you’re entitled to today, and it's going to feel insufficient tomorrow, and that’s the price of perpetual hunger…”Follow Robert Sapolsky:Website: http://www.robertsapolskyrocks.com Instagram: instagram.com/robert.sapolsky Follow Me, Tom Bilyeu: Website: impacttheoryuniversity.com Twitter: twitter.com/TomBilyeu Instagram: instagram.com/tombilyeu

The buffet of misinformation which my guest today calls “corrosive” information is highly triggering one-sided social media arguments taken as truth based on number of likes and shares, and biased news outlets that exist to turn profits pushing watered down information in the new era of headline consumption.Mis-information overload is quite literally rotting the brains of people around the world at alarming rates.By the end of this two part episode, - Avoid irrational traps we are calling the funnel of misbelief,- Understand how to escape corrosive-information and seek objective truth- Choose a northstar with flexibility that allows you to prioritize fulfillmentThis episode is about no longer allowing your emotions to be hijacked without your knowledge, and understanding exactly how they’ve been leveraged against you to form beliefs that need to be questioned. Dan Ariely, not only challenges the status quo with his groundbreaking research into human irrationality at Duke University, he also confronts the mass psychosis and misinformation epidemic, using his profound understanding of behavioral economics and personal experiences to shed light on our predictably irrational patterns of thought.Check out Dan’s latest book, Misbelief, What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational Things: amazon.com/Misbelief-Rational-People-Believe-Irrational/dp/0063280426 Chapter Markers:[00:30] The Problem With Corrosive Information[14:28] The Nature of Emotional Decision Making[34:00] Stress In The Funnel of Misbelief[44:37] Your Psychology Is Under Attack[56:20] Establishing Objective Truths[1:12:53] Individual Solutions to Societal Issues[1:27:14] The Cost of Free Speech[1:38:17] No One Escapes Misbeliefs[1:55:46] Solving For Misbelief[2:08:39] Know That You Don’t Know[2:24:07] The Replication CrisisDan Ariely Quotes:“The breeding ground for misbelief is stress.”“When you think about corrosive, you say people are different on the other side of this and there's really no no going back”“Every element of our psychology is attacked to get us down to this finalist misbelief.”“Cognitive dissonance is about, if we act in a certain way our beliefs follow.”“Emotions in general are basically rules of thumbs. They are not accurate, they are not designed to be accurate. They are designed to dictate a particular behavior that is almost instinctual.”“We’ve created a society very much built on temptation and emotions everywhere, and not just in social media, [...] it’s an easier trigger to press than to go through the cognitive route.” “There's the cognitive part, you choose which information to pay attention to or not, and there's the personality part that some people are more susceptible to…”“It's really about the ability to hold multiple hypotheses in mind and not being convinced too quickly. I also think it's about reducing the gap between confidence and knowledge…”“It's not that anybody's lying, it's that they looked at the same thing and they walked away with wildly different conclusions. “ Tom Bilyeu“If you have a growth mindset, you are not prone to going down the funnel of disbelief because your identity is not tied up in a belief or something.” Tom Bilyeu“I don't want to be 100% sure of anything that is going to color my worldview, or at least I'm going to be very, very cautious before I get there.”“Everything is a trade off, and I think that for most things we don't understand them sufficiently and deeply, and we are just at the beginning of the journey and we need to understand it, and we need to keep on being willing to change it later on.”“Social science changes all the time because the things that tap our irrationality keep on changing and the type of mistakes we make keep on changing. So we need to change with it.”“Creating a goal of fulfilling ourselves by improving other people's lives is a wonderful abstract goal. As long as you don't say "I know what is the exact way to do it.”Follow Dan Ariely:Website: danariely.com Twitter: twitter.com/danariely Instagram: instagram.com/danariely

So that is the first part of that answer. It's basically it's the most important question because it's the one where we have the least of an answer.”“In biological evolution, it always includes suffering because it means that you will have an organism that is not able to emerge as the existing stuff.”“If we get consciousness and self-organization, how do we ensure that they want to organize in a way that is in concert with us and not in opposition to us or indifference in a way that obliterates us in the way that we would obliterate plants, trees, bugs, etc.?” “I think that is ultimately not about maximizing intelligence. It's about maximizing agency..”Follow Joscha Bach:Website: http://bach.ai Twitter: http://twitter.com/plinz

Hearing that 'money can't buy happiness' often leads to the false narrative that money is evil, worthless, or unworthy of pursuit." “I don't acquire money because I want Lamborghinis and fancy things. I do it because I think it is a way to freedom, because it is a tool for power.”“Most people that are blue collar workers, at least in my experience that I've worked with, they think about personal development a bit like therapy.”"Strive for excellence to an extent that you become impossible to ignore." “I had to re-navigate and negotiate my language. That was the only way I could change my relationship with money. So it started with being okay with things like personal development, which is totally normal.”“Do you think you have been investing in small businesses for so long? Small has affected your thinking?”“I actually think that money might be contagious and that if you are around people who have it, the exact opposite of everything we think happens, [...] especially when you're young, and especially if you're hungry.”“I don't really know how to learn except I get around other people who have more than I do and I just see how they think. And then it opens up this whole aperture”“I don't know when in today's world we decided that having difficulties in front of you meant that you were meant for less. That is such a false narrative, so I just don't ascribe to it.”Follow Codie Sanchez:Website: codiesanchez.com YouTube: youtube.com/@CodieSanchezCT Twitter: twitter.com/codie_sanchez Instagram: instagram.com/codiesanchez

Today, we feature the brilliantly unconventional evolutionary behavioral scientist, Gad Saad, a renowned author, YouTuber, and award-winning professor who asserts that happiness is not a destination, but a byproduct of specific behaviors.In this thought-provoking episode, Gad reveals the dangerous yet rewarding pursuit of truth and authenticity, which has resulted even in death threats. He delves into why being anti-fragile, and pursuing truth and authenticity are key to the Saad truth about happiness. We also dig into the importance of intellectual variety, and expose why a non-fragmented personality can better handle opposing views and challenging ideas.“The only road to individual dignity and sustained existential happiness is to adopt an ethos of personal agency. You are the ultimate architect of your own happiness, so get to work.” -Gad SaadAfter watching this episode, you'll be equipped with a fresh perspective, understand the true nature of happiness, and will hopefully be inspired to foster an anti-fragile mindset. Discover why your ability to solve novel problems is more than critical, why apologies can sometimes be an attack on your identity, and so much more. Don't miss out on this riveting conversation with the ever-authentic and truthfully controversial Gad Saad!Check out Gad’s latest book, The Saad Truth About Happiness, 8 Secrets for Leading the Good Life: amazon.com/Saad-Truth-about-Happiness-Secrets/dp/1684512603 Saad Truths:“It's very very difficult for me to not be authentic if I need to defend some truth claim, [...] so the death threats come from the fact that I have to decide, am I going to be a fanatic and walk away from a defense of truth, or am I going to be authentic not only to myself, but to truth by stepping on some toes? And regrettably, at times I step on the wrong toes, which yields some death threats.”“Don't worry about taking a statin to lower your LDL scores. Make sure that you have two, three, four friends that you really trust and love and you can engage in reciprocal rituals with.”“I don't think you can solve some of the most important novel problems if they're not at the cusp of interdisciplinary.”“Having a conciliate mindset, being a generalist, in my view, are probably the best ways to crack novel problems.”“Groups that are religious out survive groups that are not religious through the mechanisms of greater cooperation communality cohesion. So they are very earthly biological reasons for why religiosity confers greater survival rates to the religious than the non-religious.”“The justification for why you should have a punitive progressive tax is that as you make more money, you pay more and more inexorably very aware of it. Exactly. So that argument stems from exactly of the things that I talk about in the parasitic mind, which is the confusing of equality of opportunities with equality of outcomes.”“I think that if you can crack those two things in whatever profession you choose, creativity, impulse, temporal freedom, you're well on your way to being happy.” Follow Gad Saad:Website: gadsaad.com Twitter: twitter.com/GadSaad YouTube: youtube.com/@GadSaad Instagram: instagram.com/doctorgadsaad

The World Lied To You About Success, Money & Power! - Escape Misery & Suffering | Arthur Brooks Tom Bilyeu 2023-09-12 | Get Out of Your Head. Take Action Now! bit.ly/3M28lkARestart Your Life in 7 Days: bit.ly/3RgzVhi“Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness…”You’ve heard this many times before, and yet have you ever wondered why life and liberty are automatically given and assumed while happiness isn’t . Why are millions of people around the world chasing happiness and very few ever “catch” it?Arthur Brooks is a social scientist, Harvard professor, and bestselling author committed to helping people find success, happiness and deep meaning. He's such a profound thought-leader in the space that he just released a book with Oprah called Build the Life You Want, The Art and Science of Getting Happier.We explore a deeply thought-provoking conversation about the pursuit of happiness through progress, learning, and understanding. As simple as the idea of happiness seems on the surface, understanding the complexities of what it means to pursue it, relish tt, and define the meaning of it without attachment and dogmatic viewpoints escapes many people.Some key areas we dive hard and deep on that I think you will find so interesting are:1) The role of progress in human flourishing2) The danger of being attached and dogmatic with your beliefs3) The importance not allowing your views to define youWhat I enjoyed most about our conversation was how far we explored and unpacked in areas that are potentially controversial topics like religious beliefs, political differences, and family schisms. Get ready to challenge your base assumptions and view existential threats from new angles.ARTHUR BROOKS QUOTES:“The idea that you can be blissful and happy all the time is not just unrealistic, it's unhealthy. It would be terrible if you were happy all the time.”“If you don't defend your positions, if you admit to the possibility that you're not right, that you learn and you update when people say things that you think are crazy, you say, tell me more that you're actually going to get better.”“Any time you use your values as a weapon, you've denigrated their moral content. You've eviscerated the effectiveness of your approach. But if you use your values as a gift it might not always be taken in a charitable way.”“Each of us is an entrepreneur in the startup of our lives. That's what really matters. And what we need is to always have a clear intention…”“The best thing that you can possibly do is to think about the emotions that you're feeling, what they mean and how best to use them.” “All the things we really want in life. All of our deep desires are complex. All of our solutions are complicated, and we're throwing complicated solutions at complex problems and we're not getting happier.”“They're not entrepreneurial in the part of life that matters the most, which is their heart.”““The first one is that there is meaning. You need to find it and live up to it.”Follow Arthur Brooks:Website: arthurbrooks.com Twitter: twitter.com/arthurbrooks YouTube: youtube.com/@arthurbrooks123 Instagram: instagram.com/arthurcbrooks

People are afraid of other people’s judgment about their failure.”“You can drink and do drugs and watch porn, if you still do the sh*t, that’s all that matters.”“I try to have as few rules as possible to give myself as much latitude to live my life.”“Use emotions to fuel the behaviors that you want.”“There’s a stimulus and there’s a response. What happens in the box inside your head does not matter. If you respond, you have learned, and if you continue to see the same stimulus and you don’t respond the way you want to, you have not learned.” “Experts are not more disciplined than you, they’ve just found more ways to win.”“Values are skills because you can train them.”“Just because it's harder to measure doesn’t make it less important.”“I don’t think any business I’ve had has had a business plan, it’s just what are we going to sell and how are we going to get customers.”“The big fallacy is that the first is going to be the forever business, which it won’t. Many entrepreneurs have many businesses over the course of their career, and in each business you learn elements that help you build a bigger and better business next time.”“Most people have to keep getting slapped until they realize that nothing is going to be easy and they have to keep going through the period of not knowing what they are doing, that is in essence what entrepreneurship feels like.”“The opportunity is in the uncertainty.”Follow Alex Hormozi:Website: acquisition.com Twitter: twitter.com/AlexHormozi YouTube: youtube.com/c/AlexHormozi Instagram: instagram.com/hormozi

Living through the financial collapse of 2008 was one of the biggest economical swings this current generation has seen, until now?It’s hard to see what’s actually happening when you’re in the middle of it, and that’s exactly why I bring experts with a wide range of experiences and insights to the show. A lot of you are in the crossroads and feeling the pain of how much higher your grocery bill is for the same amount of food. If you were on track with a decent savings account a couple of years ago (especially if you took advantage of the stimulus money that got us where we are now… we’ll talk about that today) you noticed your savings are virtually non-existent now. Working 2 to 3 jobs was once reserved for the hustler on a mission trying to work towards something major, and now it’s the standard for many people just to make ends meet!My guest today not only accurately predicted the 2008 financial collapse, he’s a seasoned Wall Street prognosticator known for his spot on predictions of the stock market performance, including gold, commodities, and the might dollar.Peter Schiff is breaking down for us the mind-games government uses with data to ease the pain we all know to be a rapidly declining standard of living and exposing how the Fed’s inflation strategies are destroying the American economy.- Expose the fallacy of inflation being needed to stimulate the economy and spending- Capitalism's role in creating freedom and opportunities- Why anti-discrimination laws create more prejudiceIs a depression greater than the Great Depression we all ready about in US history on the horizon for the US? If record numbers of credit card debt and student loan debts serve as any kind of indication of what’s looming around the corner, you’ll want to take notes and really think through this for yourself and your family.This is Impact Theory and this episode is about thinking through not just how to survive the next economic crisis, but how to get ahead of most and actually thrive.PETER SCHIFF QUOTES:“When the government prints their way out of a short term problem they print their way into a an even larger long term problem.”“The fact that we have an economy that is based in spending, that is the problem. That’s part of the bubble, we have a bubble economy. A legitimate economy would not be based on spending, it would be based on savings and production.”“Money is supposed to have real value. It’s not supposed to be conjured into existence out of thin air by a central bank.”“A lot of people believe that capitalism is evil, but capitalism is the least evil economic system that exist.”“Capitalism created the American middle class. Without capitalism there wouldn’t have been a middle class. There would have just been a bunch of poor people and some rich bureaucrats at the top that were sucking the life blood out of everybody else.”“You don’t get rich by hoarding your money because if your money is hoarded it doesn’t grow. The way people get rich is by investing their money, by creating economic growth, by producing more products, by providing more employment.”“The inherent flaw isn’t capitalism, it’s democracy.”Follow Peter Schiff:Website: schiffradio.com YouTube: youtube.com/@peterschiff Twitter: twitter.com/PeterSchiff Instagram: instagram.com/peterschiff

Today we're diving into the complex world of relationships and social dynamics with the insightful psychologist, Sadia Khan. In this eye-opening, hard to hear discussion, we examine how the allure of beauty on social media has transformed the landscape of modern relationships, often leading women to prioritize their appearance while men lose sight of relationship values that are important to selecting well. Hear me when I say, there is NOTHING that has brought me more joy and wellbeing in my life than my 21 year marriage with Lisa. From material wealth to millions of followers, downloads, awards and sales, nothing has mattered more to me.If you want to master life, you have to master pair bonding.Sadia is a psychologist and relationship expert known for seemingly controversial viewpoints when it comes to modern dating and the roles men and women are taking. We unpack the negative implications of:- Over-glorifying a single trait,- The importance of core values such as honesty, integrity, respect, and care for your partner's well-being, and- How manipulation can shape relationships for better or worse.This conversation challenges societal norms and expectations. We talk about the value of monogamy, the misunderstood perceptions of feminism, and if the independent woman is creating her own roadblocks for true connection. Wait till you hear Sadia’s view on women submitting to their men in relationships. Is it necessary? Is it a natural inclination for women? Why are women struggling so much with the idea of submitting to their male partners?This episode isn't just about love and relationships; we’re going to expose the misconceptions often spread by 'red pill' content that’s targeting the weak and vulnerable men in need of healthier perspectives when it comes to women, love, and relationship power dynamics.Your journey to a better understanding of human behavior and relationships starts here. SADIA KHAN QUOTES:“What social media has done is allowed women a platform to kind of showcase their body, their preferences, basically put themselves in the marketplace.”“We have to start learning to reject rather than glorifying the one ingredient we like.” “If I dilute my experience with you by also talking to Tom, Dick and Harry, what will happen is I'm wasting energy not realizing that you might be really bad for me, [...] it creates internal chaos, whereas internal consistency will allow us to know what's good and bad for us.”“Feminism has taught women that catering and appreciating and showing love for your man is babying him and he should be a grown up and he should do it himself.”“A secure, healthy woman is not attracted to men who treat her mean, she's attracted to a man who has a willingness to leave if she misbehaves too much.”“Just because it doesn't hurt doesn't mean it's not a deal breaker.” “When I talk about narcissistic women it is because we've tilted it where women are automatic victims and sometimes they are the narcissist in the relationship.”“I always say to men that competition is not other men. It's her childhood. If it's totally chaotic, no matter how much stability you provide her, she'll find it very, very difficult to settle into that stable relationship.” “When you meet a man who is such a safe bet and so secure, submission is a natural consequence, [...] You'd be missing out on a great connection simply because you want to maintain your independence. But independence is overrated.”“I don't recommend ever being with a man that you can control. You become a woman that you don't like.”“I don't necessarily know that the woman needs to submit, but the guy needs to lead.” Tom Bilyeu “Good women are not attracted to money. They're attracted to the process of a disciplined, self-controlled man. But vacuous women are attracted to the outcome, not the process.”“If you couldn't access her without money, then chances are any man with money can access her.”Follow Sadia Khan:Website: sadiapsychology.com YouTube: youtube.com/@sadiapsychology TikTok: tiktok.com/@sadiapsychology Instagram: instagram.com/sadiapsychology
