  • Patrick Bet-David is an entrepreneur, founder of Valuetainment, podcaster and author.
    Given that the world is in chaos, we would usually turn to our institutions and news organisations to make sense of what's happening. But trust in these institutions is as an all time low, so what can we do about it?
    Expect to learn why it’s actually important to have enemies, Patrick's thoughts on Ben Shapiro's new Snow White movie, what he thinks about Dana White's life philosophy, what it takes to actually impress people, why immigrants have such a strong work ethic, who actually runs the world, whether Tucker Carlson is going to break the internet and much more...

      The man was a quote machine and reading his letters to his mum when he was at Boarding School tells a lot about how his attitude was formed, yet his adherence to action and the resilience he appeared to have empowered the citizens with during his years in office are the definition of integrity - even if another one of his great quotes is “I’ve gotten more out of Alcohol than it’s taken from me” ❤

    What a fantastic interview. Thank you! I had the epiphany while working on the MTV Cribs Team. Traveling the country helping to produce shows in mansions while living in a studio apt in NYC at that time was getting to me at first. I went thru the feelings of feeling jealous, envious, what about me thoughts, and then I started to realize that I was rich/wealthy because I had friends and family that truly loved me and had "my back". Meanwhile I was meeting celebrities or very wealthy people who were not even sure who their real friends were. I started to see some dysfunction. I started to see the disconnection and some people putting an act for the cameras and then looking depressed once the cameras were off. Definitely an eye opening experience. Grateful

      1. ‘‘Demand from yourself what you demand from others‘‘ (i.e. nobody will respect you if you don't respect yourself ;)
      2. Set standards and expectations for your family. (the most powerful and successful families have their own standards and they stay true to them, no matter what others think)
      3. Take into consideration how much selfishness/selflessness the people around you have.
      Does it align with your standards? (for example, as a business owner you might want to work with people who are 50/50 selfish/selfless. A Leader might want to be at about 70/30)

    Selfless vs selfish reminds me of one of my grandmothers. I learned from her that in order to take care of others I need to be able to support myself first and do so consistently; then I can more freely give to others and support them. Otherwise you can get caught in a vicious cycle of helping others and then need to be bailed out when things go rough for you.

    I had been wondering for the last several years - since maybe 2016-17ish - why I had such a lack of energy, motivation, interest, ambition, etc. I mean, I thought I was basically at the end of at least my own personal development if not even the end of my life to some extent - like the same minimal routine for the next X years or decades and then die - like I was just going to go to work, come home, watch RUclips and maybe play video games for a few hours, sleep and repeat - no hobbies, no friends, no adventure, no changes or growth, no extra effort beyond absolute minimum, etc. And I haven't always been like that - I was raised to be almost militantly against laziness and I always loved having hobbies and learning things, going on adventures, hanging out with people, etc.
    But I had a span of my life where I was an alcoholic and multi-drug addict - but when I finally managed to quit, that's when my energy, motivation, interest in literally anything, etc. all vanished and I probably slept around 20 hours a day for over a year. I had gotten to the point where I could stay awake most of the day and do most of what I needed to do but I would still start falling asleep if I wasn't moving - like driving or doing relatively stationary work. I had a sleep study scheduled all the way back in 2019 but something happened and I never went and then I just kind of forgot that was even a consideration.
    Well, a few weeks ago, I finally had a sleep study and found out I have sleep apnea - I'm a big dude but not huge and this only started right after quitting drugs, because I was always the most energetic person I knew and the last one asleep so I'm thinking the drugs and booze and quitting them was the cause - but I've been totally miserable for all of these years and my wife (who was the one who helped me quit drugs) even left me back in June for several reasons related to my low energy and motivation - all of this, and I could have fixed the problem and started participating in life again and probably would still have my wife and be in a much happier marriage now - I could have gotten better years ago..
    So all of that to say, I've felt like a worthless, lazy bastard this entire time - especially when reading/watching anything related to bettering your life - business, fitness, adventure/recreation, etc. - and maybe I'll finally be getting back to normal. They're doing one last sleep study in a few days to calibrate/test/setup the CPAP on me. Every last person I've talked to who has gone through this has said the CPAP basically changed their lives... I've prepared myself though - I think the apnea is probably only part of it.. Being stuck in this mode all these years, I'm probably going to have to work on some habits/behaviors I developed in this time that are just in my head/mental that are controlled by my level of determination..

    @chriswillx PAT is absolutely point on about “nobody can keep someone watching for hours and hours. You’re one of the very few that is very easy to listen to for hours (it’s hard to find something beside great movies that we can listen & be aspired ) and the topics that you speak off, and also regarding capitalist is pat is right on DOT, regarding not looking for compliments, but rather results. What a reassurance! I thank you for that, many goodman would appreciate to hear the great things from people such as pat, that they’re right on their journey.

    You have to have a line for your kids to follow. When I was growing up my day was get up
    At 5am and I was tutored on passing whatever national
    Exam I had to do. Then at 7 took a shower then breakfast, by 8 I was at school. After school my driver picks me up at 3pm I have another 1-2 hours of tutoring and homework. By the time I get home it’s 5pm. I can’t just toss my bag down and my uniform. I had to polish my shoes, shower and eat dinner. After dinner I had to wash the dishes even though I had a maid that could do it. No games on week days. If your grades fell / I messed up bad no games, tv or phone grounded can’t go out. In fact I had no tv for abt two years I watched local news for entertainment and at the time I hated it but I have discipline and that’s what a lot of youth lack.

    Chris is a great thinker. Good point on sharing facts rather opinions on important matters.
    PBD loves to talk about his wealth and when making reference to a successful person he has to mention the annual income. It is probably because he is a business man.
    Some of the questions were not answered.

      ​@@BropillerHappiness is just a temporary dopamine spikes. Fulfillment is what most people want but fail to identify it as a value.
      The way we choose to live determines the quality of our life.
      Every decision or indecision and behavior we engage in creates the grand painting of our life. Those who recognize this can excel beyond their wildest expectations.
      Those who let external influences dictate their thoughts and behaviors lead unfulfilled experiences.
      The happiness mantra is just a trap. To lead a great live have to begin from within.
