I learnt yesterday, that you're Chris from love Island and it's MADENNING to me that I've been listening to your podcasts for so long and HAD NO IDEA that you're the same Chris I had a crush on as a teenager 🥂🤍 pleasure to have grown up with you, at different stages. Felt like a nice dose of serendipity 😅🤣🦋
Oh no! Chris your drink has Sucralose! That's really bad and probably causes cancer! Your website is flashy and intentionally hides ingredients instead showing your "research". Your fans see through this, and want actual, natural ingredients.
Modern Wisdom has been one of the most influential podcasts for building a new, creative and constructive mindset to date. Chris, you absolute legend! Thanks for keeping us listening.
Monk mode, never heard it broke down like that, agree 100%. I feel like you are a genius at distilling the good parts in Influential people and distributing them, that's amazing, good work.
I’ve recorded 82 episodes of my new show since April. You’ve been a huge inspiration and your geometric growth keeps me level and motivated as I work towards ep 100 and year 1 done 💪
Another piece of high quality content, thanks Chris :) here are my takes, helped me organize my thoughts on the video 1- : "If you can’t be happy with your coffee, you won’t be happy with a yacht." 2- : Think for yourself. 3- : To be straightforward and honest… or to utilize social techniques to make them feel wanted? 4- : If you're going 15mph at 2nd gear, don't listen to the guy going 60mph telling you to shift into 4th. 5- : There is no destination, it's a journey. Ripen or rotten. 6- - Today, did you go after what you want the most or what you wanted at the moment? 7-- "You're so in your head you can't enjoy where you are" 8- - social media 9- - Chris' dad send him articles about it. (for me, the abgs start posting it on their stories) 10- - To sabotage their competition. 11- - "I’ve come so far, but there is so much further to go." 12- - You're a monk. You meet interesting people during the process of becoming the best version of yourself. 13- - Mental diet. Theres no nutrition labels, just you're own assessment. 14- ?- If no one ever knew, would you still want it? 15- - Don’t people please, don’t desire universal adoption. You want to be loved like a person, not a dog. 16- - Never wish for what somebody else has got, unless you want to wish for what they did to get it and what they do to keep it.
I received my Neutonic order from Amazon today. Nice design and the flavor was very good; much better than I thought it would be. Sweet enough but not overly, nice solid citrus taste, not weak, not too carbonated. Thumbs up from me. Congrats on your efforts to produce a great product!
😂 I thought I was the only one left saying bomb diggity in 2024, what a pleasant surprise. I also agree with the rest of the comment, very valuable content.
I’ve never heard the monk mode expression before. Curious that I’be been on it for 15 years. Awesome as always, Chris. Thank you for your work. I appreciate your podcast so much.
Spot on, Chris! A fundamental life hack I learnt years ago is that happiness resides in closing the gap between your circumstances and your expectations .
Chris, I had never heard of the term "monk mode" before this episode. Although when I heard you speaking on the topic I immediately knew what is was. Some years ago I wrote this poem about reentering the world after "monk mode" and the associated difficulties. I hope you get to read this and I hope that you'll appreciate it. Safe in the Steep Cliffs The wild man comes down from the steep cliffs Running across the plain No shoes No clothes He has been hiding for a long time Holding all his energy within Waiting for the moment to release it Breathing in deeply, the cold air Filling his lungs he strives to go faster Stumbling across rocks and through rivers His soul has spoken Stomach, heart, and mind, all in accordance He listens to the wind as words of encouragement Leaving everything behind The truth lay all around him Smoldering from his nostrils as his heart is filled with excitement Where is he going Running so quickly Galloping like a steed with eyes covered He knows and he knows not And finally, the black lake He approaches and allows his eyes to take their pleasure The lake is deep and unmoving There are no trees around Here the wild man falls to his knees Breathes deeply And folds his hands Waiting for the moment for which he has come to bear witness A moment in time He may choose to let it define him To allow a story to be yet untold He closes his eyes Opening his senses back up He remembers the black lake The wilderness led him here Within his gut he is sure He stares into the darkness held within the lake And yearns for the moment to come near Still he must wait, all through the night Stars pass and fall The moon shines through Giving him life and illusions Sounds piercing his concentration Bringing him back to the lake He will wait no longer First out of the lake comes the old devil Spilling bile with every step he takes The wild man feels fear within his being Then out steps a goddess Beautiful and pure Full of passion Yet, grounded to this sacred Earth Last, out steps a boy Whose words are spoken slowly Never daunting and always patient His eyes shine bright as the morning sun gives the horizon a rest Each one believes in the wild man Each one has a burden to bear All of them embrace the wild man And ask him to stay Enter the black lake Give your life to us they say The wild man looks back At the safe steep cliffs Remembering the moments his heart spoke to him How his soul yearned How his gut screamed And when his mind attempted to do it all He remembers how they were all laid to rest Allowing balance fill the gap between them all Holding out both hands He accepts their invitation And is helped to his feet Re-entering the world A wild man from the steep cliffs -Zazzo
I really enjoyed this episode. Has anyone noticed how Chris loves to coin a term and deliver it as if it is a known phenomena defined in academia? Sitting firmly in the scientific/creative intersection.
I felt lost for a while, but this kind of conversation was what I needed to get back on the right track. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with us 🙏🏻.
Thank you for making this brother. As you said, you wished you had something like this when you were at that point of life. I am at that point now and thankfully have this and many other lessons. I don't know what's coming my way, but I know I'm finally ready to suffer without hiding. I will find my way, and even though I know nothing, that is okay.
Yes, I can tell you that having a strong belief in predestination has helped me many times in my life. Many times that someone else would worry, I simply don't. "This is my fate, bite down on the bit. We made it before, we will make it again." And that works. The only time I worry is when I get too scared to think. Then I forget that this was all figured out long before I existed. My ego returns. "What if I fail? Am I going to die? How about the people I love? Are they okay?" Then I worry. But it still doesn't change the outcome. Worry never helps. I would love to dispense with it entirely. I am not that enlightened yet. But I digress... You sir, know what I need. Thanks for all the advice. You have previously and continue to make my life better. Thanks.
Bravo, Chris🎉❤😂 Thank you for posting all your amazing podcasts. You demonstrate great curiosity, consideration and clarity🎉❤😊 I look forward to listening to you and your amazing guests in the future 🎉😂❤
Very high value density. And I’m only 15 minutes in. It’s hard to pay attention because every 4th or 5th sentence causes an introspection that sends you down a side track. Will have to re-listen several times with note pad near to get it all. Thanks
This is literally the best problem that I have with modern wisdom episodes. The biggest. time I felt this was with his most recent conversation with Alex Hormozi - I sent it to my friends, and they were just literally overwhelmed. I described it as being. bathed in a tsunami of. wisdom and knowledge that you're trying to grasp but just get washed over by and so the way to digest the information is to just splash your face with the cool water of the quotes. that they share.
The body positivity theory reminds me of Will Storr's new book "The Status Game"... essentially, all we do has the goal to improve our status. And one way is to surround yourself with people of lower status, since it's all relative to the circumstances you're in. So when women tell other women to stay fat (which is the essence of body positivity) it's exactly that goal. So I do agree with the theory, Chris.
This was the first solo episode I’ve listened to and absolutely loved it. Chis keep doing what you’re doing your authenticity and curiosity are unmatched. You have inspired myself and so many others to pursue real meaning, and challenge ourselves to show up as our best. Thanks for all that you do
Congrats on 700 and a great ep once again mate 👏 I love your solo podcasts. I've been a fan since around ep 150. Humble brag - I'm in 2022 I was in your top 1% of listeners apparently! What a journey it's been. You've transcended my life. Unfortunately I just had to sell my ticket to your live tour as I've just become a dad! Hope to catch the next one - please consider Bournemouth as a location 🙏 Peace ✌️
I think the theory of women's support for body positivity is completely accurate and something is have thought about myself. In fact, all of what has been said here is gold. Thank you. I've only just discovered your channel, on my wanderings with Andrew Huberman, another wonderful man who's getting things figured out.
regarding the critique of flat hierarchies at 5:20, that's a major point of UBI, that people would still work because they want to compete with their neighbors. UBI isn't about making a flat hierarchy, it's about putting a floor under the hierarchy that prevents some of the 'spiraling' behaviour that comes from being at the bottom.
I would’ve ordered the orange Neutonic if it wasn’t sold out, but I ordered the citrus anyway and it tastes WAY better than expected (maybe partly because other drinks taste so horrible). I felt great and don’t get that weird energy drink “buzz.” I’ve never ordered an energy drink twice but this is finally the one! Well done sir
Between this and Huberman's podcasts, there is such a wealth of information to better my own life. There has never been a better time in history with so much attainable knowledge with such ease, such a luxury, and the unlimited potential. More than just knowledge, the underlying hope to it all, and you should know you have helped me and will continue to, and I will extend it to my own family and people I know. To think of how lucky I am to discover these things, and at such a young age. Thanks Chris
"A person who thinks for himself and doesn't adhere to a cookie cutter ideologi will be unpopular because he is an unreliable ally". Thank you for putting that into words for me!
healthy masculinity needs to be re-found and empowering for men. not holding onto anger, resentment, etc. but dealing with it in a healthy way, with positive male role models and friends.
The point on "body positivity" is so spot on now that I think about it. I recall listening to some people talk about their experiences from massive weight-loss and how their friend-groups resented them or even attempted to sabotage their progress. Whereas my experience going from 387-lbs to now floating in the 190s was met with nothing but support from people. I thought I was just insanely fortunate in that reguard, but maybe this explains a lot of it-that intrasexual competition.
I don’t think that sort of behaviour is unique to women though. I’ve been sober for three years, well almost, but no matter how many times I explain the negative effects that alcohol had on my life or how many positive effects sobriety has had on my personal relationships, I still have those friends that ask me when I’m going to start drinking again. I just think that misery loves company and some people just don’t want to do the work that’s required to make themselves happy, so they prefer to drag others down to their level to make themselves feel better about their shitty decisions.
@@Browny84maybe you are right, but with alcohol its slightly different because people enjoy getting drunk with other people. So maybe they just miss being able to get drunk with you, and it doesn't go beyond that.
@@MJHarris93 well yeah, they openly tell me that they miss the absolute menace I was when I was on the piss, but it doesn’t change the fact that they’ve heard how drinking inevitably leads me to deep depression and self loathing, and if you’ve heard that, why would you wish someone would engage in the behaviour that leads them to such darkness?
This negative view towards masculinity has been going on at least for 30 years. In 1990 when I graduated from high school, I saw this with the PC movement in the colleges. Back then women were saying that men only want women to use as a "masturbatory tool." I had to leave the US to find a traditional woman that wanted to be a wife and mother. Feminism has been destroying relationships for a long time.
41:40 - women support body positivity instead of refusing to take accountability for being overweight. yass queen! your point on them competing is so true.
Been following your channel for just a few months but damn this is such valuable content given to people for free. I'm definitely going to have to go find all the other ones!
I've been returning to this session over and over listening to one section on different days. Thank you Chris, I'd love if you did more content like this.. without guests
Hey Chris this is urgent. On your website, the 3 UGC videos that play are all the first video (same one every time) - I'm assuming you didn't intend for this and may be a desktop-specific thing but I figured I'd let you know regardless. As always, banger episode. Got very excited when I saw that you dropped this, was almost too good to be true to think that you would distill all of this juicy knowledge into an hour long video.
Really appreciate the perspective on balancing happiness, excepting that UBI isn't about happiness, but about actually meeting basic needs. (It's what the B stands for). Yes, hierarchies will be instantiated, but it'd be great if those weren't around actually being able to just be alive. We could move up Mazlow's hierarchy as a species. Those of us that lean right would do wisely to adhere to the very next point Chris points about: singerar [write-offs] to arbitrary phenomena is a show of ignorance. Not everything the left or Woke posit is about happiness. Sometimes it is as simple as basic utilities that still aren't met by current or candidate systems
Chris, I am a big fan but you seem to be contradicting yourself. You say super successful people often give advice which reflects their improved position and forgets the earlier struggle, but then you also choose the Aubrey Marcus quote, which says he regrets being scared that he would be a failure (paraphrasing) while he was on his way up. 26:01 Isn’t this the change of perspective a super successful person you spoke about earlier? Fear of failure could’ve been a necessary motivator for Marcus, no?
Congratulations on 700 episodes Chris! I've been following your journey since approx Ep 100 and highly anticipate what the future holds for you and your team. Modern Wisdom is an immensely important podcast to millions! Keep up the great work brother!
Great recap. Also love the shameless Neutonic plugs every 10 mins, made me laugh lol. You worked hard on the product, so you deserve to put it out there 👏🏾👏🏾

Does Chris ever interview members of his audience
Oh no! Chris your drink has Sucralose! That's really bad and probably causes cancer!
Your website is flashy and intentionally hides ingredients instead showing your "research".
Your fans see through this, and want actual, natural ingredients.
Chris can you please remind me which JRE episode it was that you said may be the best podcast interview ever?
I appreciate your work!
Modern Wisdom has been one of the most influential podcasts for building a new, creative and constructive mindset to date. Chris, you absolute legend! Thanks for keeping us listening.
“Delayed gratification in the extreme, results in no gratification.” 🙌

Chris has a very good perspective on life, it's always educational listening to him
Congratulations on your great achievement. 700 episodes! You are doing great work Chris.
I received my Neutonic order from Amazon today. Nice design and the flavor was very good; much better than I thought it would be. Sweet enough but not overly, nice solid citrus taste, not weak, not too carbonated. Thumbs up from me. Congrats on your efforts to produce a great product!
Chris, these recaps are bomb diggity! Another excellent reason for why I follow your channel…an extremely valuable resource.
“Bomb diggity”? Really? Get a thesaurus bruh 😅
@@TommyTumma Thanks Tommy!
😂 I thought I was the only one left saying bomb diggity in 2024, what a pleasant surprise. I also agree with the rest of the comment, very valuable content.
Solo episodes are the best, please do one every week!
Thank you, Chris. You often help me to more clearly articulate my thoughts (as well as helping me to become more self-aware and make new connections).
instantly powerful and great ep. we're not judging the world, we're judging ourselves. as within, so without
This guy is rocking life. Thanks for the lessons. ❤
Louis CK’s bit about the WiFi on the plane gets to the heart of this too
I’ve never heard the monk mode expression before. Curious that I’be been on it for 15 years.
Awesome as always, Chris. Thank you for your work. I appreciate your podcast so much.
Most successful podcasters are people that should be interviewed themselves. I could listen to you all day
Spot on, Chris! A fundamental life hack I learnt years ago is that happiness resides in closing the gap between your circumstances and your expectations .
Chris, it is a pleasure to listen to you uninterrupted for almost 1 hour.
Chris, I had never heard of the term "monk mode" before this episode. Although when I heard you speaking on the topic I immediately knew what is was. Some years ago I wrote this poem about reentering the world after "monk mode" and the associated difficulties. I hope you get to read this and I hope that you'll appreciate it.
Safe in the Steep Cliffs
The wild man comes down from the steep cliffs
Running across the plain
No shoes
No clothes
He has been hiding for a long time
Holding all his energy within
Waiting for the moment to release it
Breathing in deeply, the cold air
Filling his lungs he strives to go faster
Stumbling across rocks and through rivers
His soul has spoken
Stomach, heart, and mind, all in accordance
He listens to the wind as words of encouragement
Leaving everything behind
The truth lay all around him
Smoldering from his nostrils as his heart is filled with excitement
Where is he going
Running so quickly
Galloping like a steed with eyes covered
He knows and he knows not
And finally, the black lake
He approaches and allows his eyes to take their pleasure
The lake is deep and unmoving
There are no trees around
Here the wild man falls to his knees
Breathes deeply
And folds his hands
Waiting for the moment for which he has come to bear witness
A moment in time
He may choose to let it define him
To allow a story to be yet untold
He closes his eyes
Opening his senses back up
He remembers the black lake
The wilderness led him here
Within his gut he is sure
He stares into the darkness held within the lake
And yearns for the moment to come near
Still he must wait, all through the night
Stars pass and fall
The moon shines through
Giving him life and illusions
Sounds piercing his concentration
Bringing him back to the lake
He will wait no longer
First out of the lake comes the old devil
Spilling bile with every step he takes
The wild man feels fear within his being
Then out steps a goddess
Beautiful and pure
Full of passion
Yet, grounded to this sacred Earth
Last, out steps a boy
Whose words are spoken slowly
Never daunting and always patient
His eyes shine bright as the morning sun gives the horizon a rest
Each one believes in the wild man
Each one has a burden to bear
All of them embrace the wild man
And ask him to stay
Enter the black lake
Give your life to us they say
The wild man looks back
At the safe steep cliffs
Remembering the moments his heart spoke to him
How his soul yearned
How his gut screamed
And when his mind attempted to do it all
He remembers how they were all laid to rest
Allowing balance fill the gap between them all
Holding out both hands
He accepts their invitation
And is helped to his feet
Re-entering the world
A wild man from the steep cliffs
-Zazzo
Thank you for all the amazing content Chris!
I really enjoyed this episode.
Has anyone noticed how Chris loves to coin a term and deliver it as if it is a known phenomena defined in academia? Sitting firmly in the scientific/creative intersection.
I love this man and his podcasts. amazing dude.
Much respect to Chris for all that he is doing to help
I enjoy this Podcast so much, thank you all, thank you Chris.

This might be the single most influential video on the platform. Thank you Chris
Yes, I can tell you that having a strong belief in predestination has helped me many times in my life.
Many times that someone else would worry, I simply don't.
"This is my fate, bite down on the bit. We made it before, we will make it again."

Thsnk you Chris, this episode brought some personal touch that i really liked. Hope I'll see you one day! All the best.

The body positivity theory reminds me of Will Storr's new book "The Status Game"... essentially, all we do has the goal to improve our status. And one way is to surround yourself with people of lower status, since it's all relative to the circumstances you're in. So when women tell other women to stay fat (which is the essence of body positivity) it's exactly that goal. So I do agree with the theory, Chris.
Chris this pure gold! Thank you 🙏
cherishing honesty
Thank you Chris and all your guests for the amazing and uplifting episodes so far
All the best from brum 🇬🇧
UBI is about providing a safety net and financial freedom, not about feeling good about comparing one's own lifestyle to others.
fundamentally flawed and will never work as intended
This was the first solo episode I’ve listened to and absolutely loved it. Chis keep doing what you’re doing your authenticity and curiosity are unmatched. You have inspired myself and so many others to pursue real meaning, and challenge ourselves to show up as our best. Thanks for all that you do
The way you articulate your thoughts is so profound…makes me feel more happy and curious to learn more about human nature!
Congrats on 700 and a great ep once again mate 👏 I love your solo podcasts.
I've been a fan since around ep 150. Humble brag - I'm in 2022 I was in your top 1% of listeners apparently! What a journey it's been. You've transcended my life.
Unfortunately I just had to sell my ticket to your live tour as I've just become a dad! Hope to catch the next one - please consider Bournemouth as a location 🙏
Peace ✌️
just never stop listening to chris and hormozi and youll be good
Look into F3- we are working on fixing masculinity with a healthy community.
Great video. Absolutely love your podcasts!
Pretty good, thanks Chris
I think the theory of women's support for body positivity is completely accurate and something is have thought about myself. In fact, all of what has been said here is gold. Thank you. I've only just discovered your channel, on my wanderings with Andrew Huberman, another wonderful man who's getting things figured out.
Appreciate the bro philosophy. Keep going!
Congrats Chris! Fully deserved. Great content.
"the courage to be disliked" - this only matters if you matter, if you don't matter then you better be likable or you will have nothing
The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding 📍
regarding the critique of flat hierarchies at 5:20, that's a major point of UBI, that people would still work because they want to compete with their neighbors. UBI isn't about making a flat hierarchy, it's about putting a floor under the hierarchy that prevents some of the 'spiraling' behaviour that comes from being at the bottom.

I felt great and don’t get that weird energy drink “buzz.” I’ve never ordered an energy drink twice but this is finally the one! Well done sir
This is some dense, yet incredibly useful and summarised content from a lot of the ones before! Good work!
I love and respect you Chris you are really conscious raising thank you
incredibly helpful , great channel thankyou chris
I feel so called out by this.
This was great. That bit on productivity dysmorphia really hit home for me, and the long term effects of monk mode.
Between this and Huberman's podcasts, there is such a wealth of information to better my own life. There has never been a better time in history with so much attainable knowledge with such ease, such a luxury, and the unlimited potential. More than just knowledge, the underlying hope to it all, and you should know you have helped me and will continue to, and I will extend it to my own family and people I know. To think of how lucky I am to discover these things, and at such a young age. Thanks Chris
Did anyone count how many times he took a sip from his new energy drink? He must have been awake for days after recording this 🤪
Product placement to the max 😂.
"A person who thinks for himself and doesn't adhere to a cookie cutter ideologi will be unpopular because he is an unreliable ally". Thank you for putting that into words for me!
This video was GREATLY needed 💯
"release the tiller" is another way of saying "go with the flow"
Monk mode includes “being social/ or doing adventure activities “
Incredible, thank you 🙏
Hi, I've noticed you've only talked about the pros of Neutonic. Can you talk about the cons? Thanks
Dude you are so impressive and great to listen to. Keep up the great work!
healthy masculinity needs to be re-found and empowering for men. not holding onto anger, resentment, etc. but dealing with it in a healthy way, with positive male role models and friends.
Monk mode! Interesting I like that
Radio silence for 3 days this weekend, away in the middle of no where, no WiFi no phones
Congrats on your new milestone Chris.
You had me on the drink until the caffeine. 🤷🏻♀️
The point on "body positivity" is so spot on now that I think about it. I recall listening to some people talk about their experiences from massive weight-loss and how their friend-groups resented them or even attempted to sabotage their progress. Whereas my experience going from 387-lbs to now floating in the 190s was met with nothing but support from people. I thought I was just insanely fortunate in that reguard, but maybe this explains a lot of it-that intrasexual competition.
I don’t think that sort of behaviour is unique to women though. I’ve been sober for three years, well almost, but no matter how many times I explain the negative effects that alcohol had on my life or how many positive effects sobriety has had on my personal relationships, I still have those friends that ask me when I’m going to start drinking again. I just think that misery loves company and some people just don’t want to do the work that’s required to make themselves happy, so they prefer to drag others down to their level to make themselves feel better about their shitty decisions.
@@Browny84maybe you are right, but with alcohol its slightly different because people enjoy getting drunk with other people. So maybe they just miss being able to get drunk with you, and it doesn't go beyond that.
@@MJHarris93 Or they think of you as the guy who turns into the "fun drunk."
@@MJHarris93 well yeah, they openly tell me that they miss the absolute menace I was when I was on the piss, but it doesn’t change the fact that they’ve heard how drinking inevitably leads me to deep depression and self loathing, and if you’ve heard that, why would you wish someone would engage in the behaviour that leads them to such darkness?
@@Browny84because they don’t extend their empathy that far. but it has nothing to do with with your sexual relationships.
YES! We always need to remember or it will be lost.
Also, we want Neutonic in Canada :(
@chriswillx, thanks men for your work. keep up the good work, you are a inspiring dude. best regards from germany
This negative view towards masculinity has been going on at least for 30 years. In 1990 when I graduated from high school, I saw this with the PC movement in the colleges. Back then women were saying that men only want women to use as a "masturbatory tool." I had to leave the US to find a traditional woman that wanted to be a wife and mother. Feminism has been destroying relationships for a long time.
Great recap :)
41:40 - women support body positivity instead of refusing to take accountability for being overweight. yass queen! your point on them competing is so true.
This is great stuff Chris, thanks.
Been following your channel for just a few months but damn this is such valuable content given to people for free. I'm definitely going to have to go find all the other ones!
I've been returning to this session over and over listening to one section on different days. Thank you Chris, I'd love if you did more content like this.. without guests
Hey Chris this is urgent. On your website, the 3 UGC videos that play are all the first video (same one every time) - I'm assuming you didn't intend for this and may be a desktop-specific thing but I figured I'd let you know regardless.
As always, banger episode. Got very excited when I saw that you dropped this, was almost too good to be true to think that you would distill all of this juicy knowledge into an hour long video.
5:00 Basic Income is NOT everybody earn the same amount of money. You will still be able to work and earn a lot of money and compete just as today.
Congratulations on all your success.
Would you consider having Robert Edward Grant on your Podcast!?
Really appreciate the perspective on balancing happiness, excepting that UBI isn't about happiness, but about actually meeting basic needs. (It's what the B stands for). Yes, hierarchies will be instantiated, but it'd be great if those weren't around actually being able to just be alive. We could move up Mazlow's hierarchy as a species.
Those of us that lean right would do wisely to adhere to the very next point Chris points about: singerar [write-offs] to arbitrary phenomena is a show of ignorance. Not everything the left or Woke posit is about happiness. Sometimes it is as simple as basic utilities that still aren't met by current or candidate systems
23:25 yes, yes, yes!
An even number of lessons this time?! Crazy
Chris, you persuasive son of a gun, you've got me hooked on neutonic. Just made the purchase! 😜
Chris, I am a big fan but you seem to be contradicting yourself. You say super successful people often give advice which reflects their improved position and forgets the earlier struggle, but then you also choose the Aubrey Marcus quote, which says he regrets being scared that he would be a failure (paraphrasing) while he was on his way up. 26:01
Isn’t this the change of perspective a super successful person you spoke about earlier?
Fear of failure could’ve been a necessary motivator for Marcus, no?
Thanks
Thank you!
Congratulations on 700 episodes Chris! I've been following your journey since approx Ep 100 and highly anticipate what the future holds for you and your team. Modern Wisdom is an immensely important podcast to millions! Keep up the great work brother!
Great recap. Also love the shameless Neutonic plugs every 10 mins, made me laugh lol. You worked hard on the product, so you deserve to put it out there 👏🏾👏🏾
You should create a playlist with all lessons videos
