Mindset Persistence | Firas Zahabi meets Tom Bilyeu on a Warrior Philosophy mode @MindsetPersistence | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
Tom Bilyeu interviews Firas Zahabi on 20 Jan 2016, in his previous project, Inside Quest.
There’s something incredible about the idea of a warrior monk. That’s exactly what legendary MMA coach Firas Zahabi reminds me of. You’d be doing the sport of Mixed Martial Arts a disservice if you think it’s just a bunch of muscle-bound dudes ready to pound the hell out of each other. There’s an insane mental game that goes into the preparation of each fighter and Firas is the go-to guy when it comes to mental Jiu-Jitsu. His schooling as a philosophy major has taught him to approach every situation with an awareness and calmness you wouldn’t expect from a Muy Thai champion – making him perfect IQ material.
Firas has turned a once down-and-out gym into the pinnacle of MMA training grounds with TriStar Gym, coaching such greats as Georges St-Pierre, Rory McDonald and former IQ guest Kenny Florian. However, it’s not the fighter that built the foundations of Firas’ success, it’s the philosopher. More Plato than Bruce Lee, Firas exudes a calmness and insane knowledge of centuries-old lessons that are still applicable today that I can’t help but admit that I’m intent on diving into the world of Marcus Aurelius at 3x.
Tape up those fists, clear your mind of doubts and absorb as much insight as I did from one of my dream guests.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
1. The importance of pushing your boundaries.
2. Why It’s necessary to see the good in catastrophes.
3. True power comes from your decisions.
4. The computer in your mind is the same as Leonardo da Vinci’s.
5. Why you need to embrace enthusiasm.
6. How to treat willpower as a commodity.
7. The importance of building a strong foundation of principles.
