Michael Malice | Self Discipline Brett Veinotte 2018-05-15 | Michael Malice is an accomplished author, celebrity ghostwriter, Twitter provocateur, podcaster and cable news commentator. He joins me for what begins as a conversation about "health" and fitness practices, but then it evolves into a fascinating exploration of habit and self-discipline.I approached this personal development topic through the lens of fitness because Michael has expressed that the pursuit continues to be a challenge for him. I thought it would be more interesting to discuss a subject where Michael is trying to put the puzzle pieces together, versus one of his areas of expertise (anarchist philosophy, objectivism, North Korea and the New Right).For me, fitness has proven to be the foundation of a better life, and great teacher for any personal development pursuit. Michael and I are extremely different people, despite coming from similar philosophical backgrounds, but I have identified with him the most when listening to him talk about his fitness, eating and body issues.Subscribe to the channel: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=SchoolSucksPodcastLink to full length podcast: http://schoolsucksproject.com/michael-malice-self-discipline-podcast-559School Sucks: schoolsucksproject.comRSS Feed to all School Sucks Podcasts: http://schoolsucks.podomatic.com/rss2.xmlLink to Michael Malice website: michaelmalice.comWatch another video here: youtube.com/watch?v=u5W1NU6Zwwc?sub_confirmation=1Follow School Sucks on Social Media:twitter.com/SchoolSucksShowinstagram.com/schoolsucksprojectfacebook.com/School-Sucks-Podcast-The-END-of-Public-Education-144639747999plus.google.com/108353041291135362930

The Principles of Learning Anything - Part 5 - Embrace Your Incompetence Brett Veinotte 2016-02-29 | For the month of February I will be joined by Steve Patterson, a home-educated and self-taught philosopher, to explore five key principles of learning that are translatable to just about any pursuit. Principle #5: Embrace Your IncompetenceEgo is perhaps the biggest obstacle in the way of learning. People get wrapped up in the appearance of competence or the appearance of knowledge, and they rarely allow themselves to admit being wrong. You might think of ego as a huge methodological error. In reality, failure is your best friend. Failure is immediate feedback that “something is wrong.” And it’s a necessary part of the process for everyone. You literally cannot get from beginner to expert without failing and being wrong.Check out more at: http://www.steve-patterson.com or youtube.com/user/stevethoughtSupport Steve through Patreon:patreon.com/stevepattersonSupport Steve with Bitcoin: 1A3oPBkXU156c3NKqWpNdGfTizc8JAgwKZSchool Sucks Project is a podcast, You Tube and online community promoting learner-driven education and deconstructing indoctrination.Download MP3: http://schoolsucksproject.com Support Us: http://schoolsucksproject.com/avBitcoin: 1KhwY836cfSGCK5aaGFv8Q7PHMgghFJn1U

[PODCAST] #408: A Better World Starts With A Clean Bedroom Brett Veinotte 2016-01-29 | Jake Desyllas from The Voluntary Life is back to discuss the process of upgrading and maintaining positive habits.Covered:- habits may seem trivial, but the are the most important part of a productivity system- two approaches to change: slow and steady vs. New Year's resolution- triggers for activating habits vs. friction against habits- How do we do it? morning routine, 7 Weeks (Android app), Jake uses Way of Life (iOS)- no matter what else is going on, do the simple things; even though these seemingly minor habits are the first thing that fall by the wayside when we're really busy- Jake: "Habits dramatically reduce the amount of willpower and brainpower required to get things done. Once you have implemented a habit and can do it on autopilot, you conserve willpower and brainpower, helping you get more done."- Willpower is a scarce resource; it degrades decision to decision- identifying resources beyond willpower- Jake: "Habits are easiest to adopt when they are simple to understand, when you minimize any friction at the start of the action, when there are clear environmental triggers that tell your unconscious to start the habit, and when you have feedback (rewards) for completion."School Sucks Project is a podcast, You Tube and online community promoting learner-driven education and deconstructing indoctrination.Download MP3: http://schoolsucksproject.com/podcast-408Support Us: http://schoolsucksproject.com/avBitcoin: 1KhwY836cfSGCK5aaGFv8Q7PHMgghFJn1U
