Recap by Tammy AI
@TomBilyeu which book of Churchill did you read ? there are so many
why your videos huge amounts of ad,its exhusting
Absolutely love your work @tombilyeu! Amazing interview.
It all comes down to 'Focus on what you can control'
I can't listen to him with his nose like that
you definitely need time stamps, posting a 3 hr video without them is a crime! Do you not care about us? You have over 3 mill subs, good heavens!
The best podcast I've ever seen, I'll put some shorts about it in my channel.
who else liked for Hormozi and not tom??
Those are called Karen's, not Tiffany!😂
By the way, quest bars are incredible
what the fuck is this thing on the guy's nose?
Alex's outward persona without knowing anything about him pushes many away but if you listen closer you will hear that he speaks many truths.
I'm becoming a fan.
I'm trying to find my passion, my purpose, I'm trying to find my thing. I don't think you find it I think you make it. Holy shit that's a 💎
While I agree that you can have bad habits and prevail, getting use to dopamine surges from those activities is going to destroy your motivation and cause nihilism. Interestingly, accomplishing goals has always been very easy for me, but not getting bored is my struggle in the meantime.
So what I do to counter this is dopamine detox. The desire to do things is good, including drinking coffee. But after you do them the desire goes away. The issue with pornography is in biology, reproduction is the climax of experience, and if you can skip being desirable to achieve that, you've destroyed your hormones. When someone lacks motivation, it's most likely because of a porn addiction, or some extreme dopamine causing activity, drugs or alcohol. Exercise is one of the greatest ways to dopamine detox because serotonin release.
Why does he have a nose patch?
Never punish yourself. Project love Over hate.
What is on his nose?
So I’ve been watching Alex for the past month what’s up with the nose strip
the grey scale hack is crazy. I've been using it for a few months and i no longer have the urge to reach for my phone.
There's a book called "30 Days to Stop Giving a Shit" by Corin Devaso that aligns with this perspective.
I’m finally coming back to myself after years old spending too early. Lately I been sleeping and taking care of myself more. Be true to yourself everyone. Everything will be okay.
I see many elements of Anthony Robbins in this dialogue….which makes me aware that reframing from different perspectives is absolutely necessary because some ppl become anchored by familiar authorities.
As much as I like both of these guys, I would not want to work for either of them. Hell no. Tom just sounds like he would break your soul as a boss. No thank you. Slightly passive aggressive too. Nope. I think, that’s the hardest part about building someone else’s dream. They’ll never be happy with your output, it’ll never be fast enough for them. It’s their dream after all and you’re just paid labour. Be the Boss guys. Be the Boss. If you can.
Thanks so much. Great information and discussion.
Great content. Thank you.
You may wanna plan your week around this one if you've never heard Alex talk. You'll need some time afterward to process
He through me off about the drugs and routine may work for him but it won’t work for most
Awesome intrview! I loved this talk. Here's what resonated with me:
1. The number one problem is that no one takes action.
2. Building an identity around hard work is something to strive for, instead of building an identity around beauty or intelligence.
3. Being able to delay gratification.
4. Map out what you want to do.
5. Consistency is key, and you need evidence of your consistency.
6. What can I do to make this day worse?
7. If you act positive and think negative, you can still succeed, but if you think positive and act negative, you won't move forward.
8. Tom has rules in his life; for example, you don't drink two times a week.
9. Alex doesn't have rules; he's only interested in what works. He says that since morning routines are so different for every person, this means that they don't really have that much of an impact. If you do the things that are important for your business, you can also drink, watch adult content, eat sweets, and so on. You need to focus on the formula that will move your business forward and decide how you'd like to live your life. But the way you live your life is not that important to your business. The only thing important to your business is whether you work or not.
10. If you don't have patience, you need to figure out what to do in the meantime.
11. Sadness is the perceived lack of options, which is an ignorance problem and can be fixed with more knowledge.
12. Anxiety is having too many options and not knowing which one to choose, which means that you need priorities and need to make decisions.
13. Are you going to play the victim, or are you going to play the game?
14. Alex thinks that values are skills that can be trained. Tom does not share the same opinion; he thinks that emotions are an echo of a person's beliefs and values.
15. How Alex knows when the work is done: He asks a person to edit a 30-second clip for 30 minutes, after that asks the person what they would do if they had 2 hours, after that 2 weeks, and once there isn't anything more that can be done, then the work is finished.
16. The rate at which you decide what the next most meaningful step for your business or life is a sign of intelligence.
17. Being predictable in a good way and delivering when you promised that you're going to deliver will be liked by everyone.
What's wrong with his nose ? lol
