Hello you legends. Watch the full episode with Alex Hormozi here - ruclips.net/video/M4PzOjM5BJQ/видео.htmlsi=1zBozSjmmbN-z6yN
Can you bring on Muslim Guests? Since you’ve brought on Sam Harris, could you bring on Sheikh Hamza Yusuf ? An intellectual Genius who I think deserves a platform to talk about Islam? When Sam Harris said “Jihadist” Part of me knew he had no idea what he was talking about. Or the likes of Omar Sulieman, or Mohammad Hijab. Would be an interesting dialogue I think. ❤
By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you ll become happy. If you get a bad one, you ll be a philosopher.
-Socrates
If you're with/chose a bad woman, one will be very particular whom is invited to your life.
This quote is severely misunderstood as Socrates deprecating something, tongue in cheek. But do you think Socrates himself, given the option, would have exchanged the philosopher that he had grown into, for a more agreeable wife and increased ignorant bliss? Socrates is basically telling you "You should be so lucky as to be blessed with some adversity." It's a precursor to Seneca's "A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials."
@mothmoniker687 I'll take a word salad, dressing on the side, please.
@@armara70I think the gist was that we should seek to challenge ourselves, rather than others. Nowadays (I would argue since always) people focus on changing the world (meaning other people), but this is folly as people are complex and our ideas too simplistic; we end up foundering in ineffectual and disingenuous acts that further nothing but our egos.
i think it was Tim Ferriss who said: imagine yourself laying on your deathbed and ask yourself how much you would pay to get to be in this very moment right now. Another very powerfull way to be acutly aware of the present
And when the answer is 0 ; then you know that you are at peace😊😊😊
I too feel great when I'm in the middle of working towards something. Having said that, I think both of these men becoming fathers would enhance their perspective further. I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but when I laid my eyes on my first born, my life, my purpose, my meaning became absolutely clear. The joy is indescribable. I question if I actually knew joy prior.
Absolutely. I was thinking this when I watched the last snippet of this interview. Having kids is utterly life changing. Especially these aware guys who are gonna wanna raise kids differently to most.
That's the hormones flooding the brain. Whoever studies those hormones and can replicate it on demand will be quite wealthy indeed.
For every person who recommends children, I've encountered someone who regrets it. You know nothing about them or their past for not wanting to have kids. They chose not to because of deep awareness of themselves. I don't understand people who push kids on others so hard. You don't have to have a child to leave a deep lasting positive impact on a younger person. And the only reason your purpose became clear is because of biology.
@@panama1942 ok
@@panama1942I understand your perspective and I don’t think kids should ever be pushed on people but anyone who hasn’t had kids can never understand the impact it has on your life or how it can change your perspective. The part about “only because of biology” is bullshit though because you have no idea why that happens. Nobody does. For all we know, it could be from God himself
I had a lofty goal/dream to become a professional downhill mountain biker and I never made it. I raced at the highest level but never got picked up by a team. Best thing that I ever did. Took me years to realize it though! I found work easy and not much of a challenge for years, then I went to Counciling and got some answers and tools to figure things out. It’s a cliche but the journey is where the fun is, being present is key to gratification and happiness (for me any way).
Love the channel by the way.
Pleasure is external
Happiness is internal
1:13 lol! Alex trying to avoid saying “Beating the meat” 😂
When I get my air-fryer I will be happy, I was right, bacon, bacon, bacon. 🤣
The air-fryer is the best kitchen appliance invented since the microwave. I would look into a smokeless grill.
@@fauge7 And a matching Instant pot for rice and beans without soaking them.

"What would your 85 yo think? " love that !
Enneagram 8 here… y’all are way ahead of the curve, and thank you for continuing to share with the world what you learn.
As an almost 42yr old, I’m still learning what motivates me after starting this journey in 2019. I’m exponentially further now, but so much left to learn 🥂
I mention the enneagram bc it’s a BIG factor in the motivator… and when we bucket each other as anything but our personality type, it’s going to continue to be a frustrating journey.
My 4yo daughter for example, is definitely in the “heart triad”… I don’t know if she’s a 2, 3 or 4, but she’s almost unmistakably shown signs of that base since birth.
Why does that matter?
I can’t apply what works for me 100% for her… it’ll never work, or at a minimum, will hold her back from her full potential.
We’re all different… the more we embrace it and understand how to function and successfully accept those around us for who they are in the present. It will be exponentially be easier to be happy.
It’s mind blowing for me to think some people honestly don’t want to get further than where they are now… but I can almost guarantee they’re not an 8
Anyway… big ramble. Thank you for all that you do! It’s changing lives and helping us who do want to grow make huge strides 🥂
Thank you 🙏
Enneagram 5 here!! Totally agree with all you say. What motivates you will definitely not work for your daughter, how lucky is she to have a Dad who understands this.

If you like personality traits and analysis then check out “spiral dynamics”. It’s such an amazing book. You’ll love their model of categorizing not only people but groups and countries
@@samricher check out Integral Theory
Pursuit is an infinite game is it not... It's important for the brain to naturally stimulated by all the key neurotransmitters... Oxytocin (love), Dopamine (pursuit),Norepinephrine (adrenaline)....
Stringing those mindful moments together is like individual drops that turn into a constant stream. And super wise monks like Ajahn Chah use that image to explain the path of wisdom. So yeah, your idea is probably spot on, Chris.
So right! Hell is not becoming the person that you could be! It is pretty darn simple! Mic drop! Happiness is simply the converse of that!
Being in the present is a skill you can master, Chris explained it perfectly.
Whenever I achieve a goal that I thought would make me happy it always makes me exactly as happy as I thought it would. I think who get no enjoyment from goal completion just suck at picking goals. Or maybe everyone is different.
I think they mean more long lasting happiness. Most people think for example when they make a certain amount of money annually they can relax or be happy or be content, and when they hit the goal they can be happy for a long time, maybe months, but is not a permanent state and if we don’t live our lives right we can return to dissatisfaction.
Its the dopamine hit you get while struggling. Hubberman talks about this.
And yes, goal that exceed your life time?
Rining any bells.
Keep going.
Truly enjoy you both and know you both read voraciously. I would suggest Soren Kiergerkaard, aka the pessimists favourite philosopher. But you are talking around his Therom that life must be suffering and mundanity to understand joy and beauty.
Please don't tell me Ws are wins
W is 3 syllables and win is 1 syllable
@@kris3451 I'm not cool
Am I an optimizer or pedantic?
It's culture
Enjoying the process. It’s what Gary V says.
Great perspective & great podcast!
needed this in order to realize I needed to slow down. Thanks
Some people are only happy in war. Not because they are violent but because they were built to overcome struggle.
balance and flow
His beard makes him happy.
That’s all he needs.🙂
Is this episode about Chris or Alex as Chris seems like he is being interviewed? Great perspectives from both but am curious as to who is being interviewed or more of a conversation?
You create who you want to believe is being interviewed.
This podcast, for me, is more valuable than 100M Anything.
@ChrisWillx did you get round to asking Sam Harris that extra question? I'd be super curious of his answer...as your take on it was the conclusion I came to as well whilst listening to your podcast.

I find sprinting is good for being present. You cannot sprint properly while thinking of something else.
Eckhart Tolle The Power of NOW
This is the very reason that God already set us a destination which is Heaven and I realized a few months ago that it was a very intelligent and geneous idea that God gave us a destination which we can't achieve in this world or else we would've been miserable if we had achieved paradise on earth. I have experienced this personally; the joy that comes when you realize that your whole life is just a journey and the destination comes after it is just amazing, you're always in peace.
Loved your input Alex.
Never thought I’d hear Chris say “Japanese Anime” lmao
love your content.
3.50 what book he was talking about
Oof, who else needed to hear this?
Men have always sought power over their circumstances, and likely always will, to avoid the reality of the unknown.
As an ant will work it’s entire existence to build and build without the capacity to realize the entire colony will be gone in a season.

Banal conversations. Nice guys. Banal conversations. Pursuit of the next little (or big) pleasurable encounter. Bullet proof? Build muscle? Character traits? Gratitude? Why not just BE a person of conviction? Greed, lust, setting ourselves as gods…why not just serve others? Feed the poor, visit the sick, comfort the downtrodden, counsel the broken…the list is endless. Talk is cheap.
I began my investment journey at the age of 33, primarily through hard work and dedication. I am to share that my passive income exceeded $100k in a single month for the first time. This success reinforces the importance of the advice mentioned earlier. It is not about achieving quick wealth, but rather ensuring long-term financial prosperity.
Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or trusted advisor in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields.
This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?
Through closely monitoring the performance of my portfolio, I have witnessed a remarkable growth of $500k in just the past two quarters. This experience has shed light on why experienced traders are able to generate substantial returns even in lesser-known markets. It is safe to say that this bold decision has been one of the most impactful choices I have made recently.
wow that’s stirring! Do you mind connecting me to your advisor please. I desperately need one to diversified my portfolio.
My advisor is *Nolan Velden Brent* , a renowned figure in his line of work. I recommend researching his credentials further. He has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
He didn’t want to beat his meat?

This world is not made for us to be happy in. It's made so we can make a choice, to accept the saving grace of Christ or to reject Him. You'll never be truly happy without Christ.
@@mothmoniker687seems like you're projecting quite a lot. You need to talk about it?
Jesus is important and he started the Catholic church. That is why Im Catholic! You can be ambitious and a Christian! Catholics are Christians!
@@johnyang1420 as long as you understand that Christ is the one who forgives and the whole confessing to a priest in a box is kinda made up and not found in the Bible.
Ah yes. 5.4 billion people will never be happy.
@@thelucasweavershow that's not what I said. I said this life wasn't made for us to be happy in.
Also, you seem very unhappy. Have you ever tried honestly seeking God?
God go touch grass
God touches whatever he wants.
These two speak a lot , too many words , calm down.
