Can't believe you got Seth Godin, that in itself deserves applaud. You are hands down becoming one of the best interviewers ever, period. Knowing when to be quiet, and knowing when to prime the pump gets the best out of your guests. You have mastered this. I can listen to the same guest on Lewis Howes, Seth Rogan, Chase Jarvis and I get the most when they are on Impact Theory. I think it's because you are asking and probing what your community wants. What I'm building you have personally had a major impact on. Thank You and Thank You for getting Seth!!
TV Smack Talk, Tom totally killed it today with his restraint. I fell in love with him all over again just by watching him listen.
And the look of Joy on Tom's face as he was doing the intro!! I felt the excitement. This is just good stuff!!
Who is Seth Rogan?
@@ariking26 He means Joe Rogan
Is it silly if I feel motivated to do amazing things because I want to deserve getting interviewed on this show?
Seth Godin brings so much value at every appearance 💫
Agreed!
"Get hooked on 'this might not work, this might work, we'll find out'" Absolute mindshift. Amazing.
That's true SedaleM because it's all testing until something actually works. Many people view the testing process as failure instead of testing a hypothesis. It is a mindset shift to discover that we can test ideas and see if they work and that's okay.
Impact theory is my morning ritual! Thank you for making this wisdom accessible & breaking it down. Such a blessing
You Are Gorgeous...And I am proud to praise your beautiful eyes
This guy is my favorite interviewer because he actually shuts up and lets his guest talk
He's the first person to have a real answer to your question about what impact he wants to have on the world...and it's the most gangster answer ever. God damn this was a good episode.
I’m shocked at how Tom summarized the interview so well. It’s not scripted... he’s just fcking focused and knows how to connect everything lol
Seth Godin is one of the most transformative characters in my life. I encountered his work more than 10 years ago, and without his ideas, I would not have been able to build the business I have today.
He has greatly influenced me, miles away here in the Philippines. He is a hero. And he is truly making the impact he intends to make.
Thanks Seth! And thank you Tom from having him as a guest. Such power in his ideas.
Totally agree! Seth is amazing!
This Is better than school ! 🙏
Agreed!
The best kind of learning is intentional learning. I love Seth's teaching style.
Honestly! Because Godin is a Real teacher!
Right in some sense. But, may be no school after 10th grade or so and no, if you wanna do engineering or science in any field.
"I'm not trying to teach for my own sake. I'm trying to teach so that other people can help the culture around them level up, 'cause that's all we got." Wow. Solid guy.
"In a crowded marketplace, fitting in is a failure. In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible." - Seth Godin
Yes, Seth talks about becoming a lynchpin and making yourself unique and irreplaceable if you want to survive the wave of the future.
Teresa Cole , Seth actually goes further than that to say “You” already are unique and would easily stand out in “the marketplace” and that its of value to develop on the many levels that have not been attended to (read developed) that support beyond the lower potential of merely “Fitting in” This whole notion grows from the “lynchpin” idea of learning and growing through knowing what we don’t know........... of ourselves!
It has been a full year now that I'm watching Impact theory, so I can say it - Tom, you are the greatest interviewer of our time. You are our Larry King. And in this episode you've been superb, a joy to watch. Seth's ideas and the way he conveys them is nothing short of amazing. This is probably my favorite episode. Thank you for everything you are doing. Because, same as Seth, you ARE making this world a better place.
“You cannot be curious and angry at the same time” Seth Godin Thank you 🙏🏼✨
"If you think there's a shortcut,your'e wrong".COOLSOME SETH.
Tom, having Seth is such an incredible accomplishment. Congrats. Seth represents what humanity truly needs to be. He is my "Hero" as he prefers in terms! I listen to him, morning, noon and night. Keep the movement going. !!!
Model success to replicate success. Absolutely love it.
Yes, Dan, it's a great way to get better at a craft.
Wow ♥♥♥ This man is something special ♥♥♥ the world needs more souls like this ♥♥♥
One of my most favorite episodes & guest. Love Seth and ALL the amazing gems revealed. Great energy between Tom & Seth
nice to see a calm, nuanced talk with seth godin! completely different to the talk he did with gary vee 😁seriously though, how can you not love seth? he always brings so much value and his advice has helped me tremendously in my endeavours!
Tom killin’ it with the best questions ever!
I HATE when I have to hit the rewind button every 5 seconds. Unmercifully valuable interview. Tom and Seth never disappoint... thank you both for all you are doing.
yeah me too.
I'm an online art student. I am not good yet, but I'm determined to become a master through sheer discipline and hard work. These interviews are such an inspiration when I feel discouraged. Can't wait to be good enough that I can teach others and share the growth mindset. The world needs it!
He started with the story ive been obsessed with and moves on to hit me over and over FOR 52 MINUTES!!! Another interview I was writing notes furiously. Tom, you are such an amazing interviewer! I got so much value from this, THANK YOU!!!!
Tom you are a brilliant interviewer, who truly makes his guest feel valued and appreciated with the spectacular manner in which you introduce them. Moreover, it is not only the brilliant intros that make your podcast stellar in nature but also the manner in which you truly ask insightful and well though out questions that provide great value to the audience. Additionally, as an interviewer you have managed to strike the perfect balance between being present and leading the interview, while also allowing the interviewee to take their time answering the questions posed, a trait that is hard to find in many podcasts and interviews. I truly recommend all viewers to see the manner in which Gary Vaynerchuck interviewed Seth Godin and contrast that with the manner in which Tom conducted his interview as there is a world of the difference with regards to the dynamic shared between the interviewer and interviewee.
Seth Godin brings so much value at every appearance
Tom Bilyeu, thank you! Your work has changed my life. Thank you for an invaluable interview with Seth! Love love love!
I'll be honest, I've never heard of this guy before this talk, I'm definitely going to check out more of his work. Amazing episode !
Divineshot 314 his quite famous ... His podcasts are the best
So much of this is inligne with the 7 habits!!! Great!
seth said quitter never win ,winner never quit try to read his book the dip it will change alot of you thought about difficult situation
Israel Aguilar Lua as as
Yeees! Seth! Tom, appreciate every thing you do. 🙏
Five minutes in and I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorites! I don’t even watch TV or use my Hulu account anymore! I literally enjoy my no ad RUclips educational channels more than any other form of entertainment and it’s really all I wanna do in my free time. In one month I’ve changed my entire life and a lot of it is from the inspiration motivation and change of thought pattern I have gotten from these videos. I wake up early in the morning meditate take a long walk to the gym while listening to educational videos. By 1 o’clock all of my tasks are completed and I have to find more positive things to do so I usually just watch more of your videos. Thank you thank you thank you!!! 🙏🏽
oh my god, i can't find words to explain how great it felt. Tom I got introduced to Seth via your book list and i can't thank you enough for that. This guys is from another dimension and finally seeing him in the show is the best thing that happened to me today. thank you so much
It's just gets better with every episode.... Priceless...
After watching some 20 episodes , I loved this the most ... Truly informative and believe me I actually put headphones /// full volume and closed the windows of my room /// did almost everything just to give my 100% attention and rewinded several times to get this in my head ... Thanks a ton TOM .
So much humble with all those accomplishments. I am learning from Seth Godin and I want to learn from him
How do you not love a real gentlemen, people that opens doors and keep their promises and listen and they hear without you speeking.....addicted for life, gratitude to you😍❤ Seth
Tom this is out of this world literally. ❤❤❤❤❤❤👍
The Legend stops by!
Wow, what an exceptional episode. Well done.
What an interview!! And Tom what a great interviewer you are. The intro and outro of show was 🔥 What a way to honour Godin the legend
So glad you liked it! I loved having him on the show!
Yes Tina, Tom really does do a great job at the intro and outro of the interviews. I have watched other interviews where the interviewer totally loses control of the interview. Tom does a great job of guiding the interview and making sure that the audience can get some core wisdom that they can apply to their lives and get some positive results.
28:00 .... he actually introduced a very powerful and practical approach to deal with those thoughts and habits that won't go away !!
Its even part of meditation techniques .... Nice Talk!
I'll have to go back and listen to that 28: 00-minute spot Mayank. Thanks for pointing it out.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS CHANNEL
I got chills like a dozen times, especially near the end. Wow
Tom Bilyeu I discovered you only a month or so ago... and I am so happy I did. Thank you so much for all of the work you are doing. A really awesomefully inspiring contribution !! THANK YOU !!!
Can’t tell you how many of your episodes I’ve watched or what order I’m watching them in... so far, this one has been my favorite! Even paused to grab Linchpin from audible and finally listen to seth’s wisdom. You’re doing great work and inspiring my company at every step in mere months. Thank you both.
Haven't heard from Seth in a long while! Always a pleasure hearing his thoughts. Practicality and modularity.
Not a day goes by without me watching one of Tom's interviews. Thank you!
What a combination of two of my favourite content creators. Been a fan of Seth for years now and Tom within the last 2 years or so. Smashing the like button before I listen, it is impossible for this not to be EPIC!!
Tom, you're great with interviews and moving the conversation forward. I think these are one of my favorite interviews on the tube.
Tom, that was a truly beautiful wrap-up! So real I felt the emotion.
About to dive into Seth's world! Thanks man.
This was brilliant! Simply brilliant! Definitely one of the best interviews and of all the videos in general or any events live or online that I've ever been fortunate enough to encounter.
Massive respect for this guy. He's A True Inspiration.
And thank you, Tom! You've no idea how much I appreciate you bringing stuff like this to us. To say this made me better would be an understatement, cause it did so much more. Thank you!
I have so much love and admiration for this conversation! Thank you.
One of the best interviews that I have watched after David gogins interview
Yes, the interview on David Gogins was amazing. He talked about turning pain into gain and having the mental toughness to get through anything. This interview with Seth is great in that way too.
Your video interviews have helped me move along in my path so much. I am happy to pass on the good news that I hear every time I login and listen to your content. Thank you.
wow! Definitely one of my favourite interviews so far!
One of the best interview. It's incredibly enriching. Thanks Tom for spreading the treasure of wisdom which can shape the person like me and others and impacting the world to make it a better place.
Unbelievable! I have been watching your videos for over a year now and this has been by far the most impactful episode for me yet! Keep up the good work!
Love that! I think Seth is amazing!
31:15 profoundly illustrated! So much value in this episode! Thank you Tom👍
Thank you so much, Mr. Bilyeu.💝
"engage with people so you don't even need a lawyer", "living your life with no fine print"... wow, that is magic! I would like to be able to work in partnerships like this.
The best talk and insight I've actually ever heard.
very humble human being, Seth Godin
That was an amazing episode! Definitely gonna get a re watch with my note pad. So many examples of just looking at things differently and self awareness
This was soo good! Buying Linchpin now. Thank you!!!
All the interviews on Impact Theory are very good, this one is EXCELLENT! I need to watch this one again to absorb this stuff. Thank you Tom...
thank you for this interview Tom, you did it again
Great interview! I liked the way Seth emphasized the fact that we are living in a period where connections are important, and if you are lucky to meet/find somebody who inspires you, you can achieve great things. A key moment for me was when I found this channel. I am convinced that after a year while I watched the interviews each week, I have a different mindset. I am able and have the courage to do things that before I couldn't do, because I was afraid. But, as Seth said, fear is good to realize what you can do when you actually do. :) Thank you Tom for the interviews and I appreciate all you effort with Impact Theory. You rock!
Damn Tom, one of the best videos you've had on this channel. Congratulations, it seems like it was a little dificult for you and your team to bring Seth to your studio, but if definely worth it. Thank you for doing that, for all of us. I also admire and respect all the time you spend studying the person you're going to interview before the presentation, it is one of the most genuine things that you do on your channel. Lets be legendary my friend. Regards
Jorge López you read my mind
Tom really did deliver on this one Jorge! I'm so glad he brought Seth to the stage. Just like you, I learned so much!
I have rarely seen a person as well prepared for an interview as this. Great questions, great interview, congratulations, you nailed it.
Thank you for bringing Seth Godin on. Great interview! Am going to watch again.
One of the best interviews I've come across. Makes me introspect on a lot of things.
Love this! Life changing
YES!!! Thanku for this Amazing interview!! Listening to Seth Speak inspires me on so many levels & makes me happy!!
Fantastic interview and an incredible, heart-felt outro.
Seth's interviews are always amazing to listen to. But, Tom I have to applaud your questions and the level of presence you bring to every interview. How much attention you give to every word coming from the person in the other chair, is always something that stands out to me. I loved how to started to go into 'Impact Quote mode' at the end of the interview. Great interview man!
A powerful inspiration to find your passion and be brave enough to stand alone. It’s going to take work
One of your best interviews! Amazing!
These two are peas in a pod. I love this. Seth, Tom, thank you both for agreeing to (and actually) making this happen. "What did that process look like?" Priceless. This is filled with 'obvious' principles articulated in a no-nonsense format. Much appreciated for your sage wisdom and expert communication.
Gold. Pure Gold!! Thank you Tom.
Phenomenal! As always! Thank you both Tom & Seth for being the best versions of yourselves!!
I shared this video on my Facebook page like this, "If you want to escape the matrix.. if you want to be an entrepreneur, NOT work a typical job but add a crushing amount of value to the world, I am giving you an opportunity to listen to this interview. If you let it, it will begin to change your mindset, just how it has done with mine. Welcome to how the world really is, YOU AS THE CREATOR."
Looooooove that!!!!
love seth, loved the interview - gratitude
His talk is really inspiring and the fact that he’s a real person who I can get that notion through a phone screen a year after this has been put on RUclips is amazing alone I’m ready change this world for the soul purpose of telling a story that will give others the chance to have there voice heard while growing themselves in all aspects of life
I have watched a lot of Seth's interviews lately and this has to be my favorite by far. Great questions. I have never heard of Tom Bilyeu but I will try and find his list of books referred to. Thanks Tom for a masterful interview.
Didn't know Seth Godin. All I can say is ...... WOW!!!
You get better if you care enough to be bad in the first place. All we gotta do is to accept there’s no shortcut And put in the work. Showing up everyday. I love how Seth answered how he’d like to impact the world. His genuine interest in levelling up the culture can be sensed through my phone screen. Amazing interview Tom. Thanks.
I love this interview. I just want to shoutout Tim for this in depth RUclips description it literally has everything
I am committed to self-development & thriving.
Keep changing the world Tom! Pure Gold. wow. Salute sir.
Top 5 guest and interviews for sure.
Love Seth Godin.
Great work guys! Much appreciated!
I found Impact theory because of a friend and your time with Seth was only my third time here but Tom, I already know I'm all in. How you research and interact with your guests to pull every scrap of awesomeness out of them is intoxicating and though I'm in my mid sixties and was feeling tired... after just three days here I'm feeling like starting over but being much better this time. Thank you... and I'll see you tomorrow!
Loved this! What a genuine, authentic human being. I love the intro where is acknowledging the flaws of the system, whilst being on top of it himself. Fantastic, going to be buy myself a Seth Godin book! Love the impact he wants to have on the world, totally agree with that, service to others is so much more beneficial to all of us. Humanity is ascending, slowly but steadily.
Unbelievable interview. I had a huge grin on my face throughout the whole thing.
Very Powerful Interview! Thank you!
As always masterpiece interviews, thanks Tom!
What a terrific show. This should be on every single week. He's THAT good. Thank you Tom for getting him on, and thank you Seth for sharing your wisdom with us!
This guy is so sage! Great episode!
Seth is one of my inspirational heroes, I love his work and of course I love him, thanks for this great interview
I really love the idea of 'generous hustle'. I have done damage to my body mind and spirit by pushing through, grinding, hustling, at times in my life. I don't regret any of it. I strive now to live a playful life of joy, and inspire and help others remember how to learn who they can be through play. I am also building a 'toolbox' that helps me and will help others to navigate the unknown, the now...
Gabrielle Angel Lilly Yes!! I can really relate- I just overcame the dark side of an entrepreneurial and ambitious mindset. I suffered from a deep productivity anxiety before, and it's so amazing just to say that I've have gotten past that because I am so much happier and empowered. It's so clear now what I want to do and how I want to craft my life! I'm happy for you!!
One of the greatest episodes of Impact theory... Seth Godin is a master of marketing and leadership... Thank you Tom Bilyeu. Highly Educational
It has taken me three days to watch this because I didn’t want to miss anything. I’m literally in tears. Seth has changed my perspective on a lot of things. I just want to study him. He’s so much of what I want to see myself evolve to. Though we do not share all of the same experiences, we certainly share the same heart and perhaps the same DNA. Thank you for bringing him to me. You asked all the right questions. Much love. ❤️
This is so amazing! Crazy to think that this is free content. Thank you very much Tom!
