    Ultra-athlete Rich Roll turned the pain of his alcohol addiction and health problems into an age-defying endurance career. His practical process for reaching spiritual, mental, and physical clarity is what empowered him to transform himself on every level. The author of Finding Ultra breaks down the steps to find out what you really want in life on this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.
    SHOW NOTES:
    Rich touches on his relationship with pain and leveraging it for success. [3:04]
    Rich details working to change his life amongst addiction and weight problems. [8:05]
    Rich recalls struggling in life after releasing his book. [16:40]

    Rich reveals the impact he wants to have on the world. [34:45]
    QUOTES:
    “Pain is truly the only thing that's ever gotten me to change. So, it's been my growth accelerator as well as my reminder of when I've gone astray.” [3:38]
    "If we can develop that, the wherewithal to have the awareness around the circumstances surrounding whatever event it is, that you can leverage that crack in the door, that door cracking open, or that line in the sand to make some significant changes.” [12:40]
    “I can tell you that I'm happiest and most alive when I'm butting up against the outer edges of my pain threshold” [14:40]
    “I think that most people set the wrong goals for themselves, and it's because they're disconnected from who they are. They are living someone else's life, or they're living a life that's so disconnected from who they are that ... And they're living a life that they didn't consciously choose for themselves, and because they don't have a healthy relationship with themselves, with their interior life, it becomes very difficult to set the right goals.” [24:01]
    “It's easy to say, I'm an outlier. But, I'm not. I really am not anything special. I had the courage and the audacity to pursue these things. And, in so doing, I have realized that human potential is malleable. We're all sitting atop massive reservoirs of untapped potential and ability.” [35:35]

      I am learning, to welcome into my whole being the FEAR of discipline ..... without stopping the task.....It seems the source of our power is not a muscular, physical, effortful thing ~~. but a letting go and viewing ourselves as a vessel for that greater magnificence to pour through. It's a strange practice of standing outside ourselves, as though on a high hill, and watching the
      intensity of purpose in a way, use us for great good...

    I think excuses are a sort of coping mechanism that our brains create so that we can tell ourselves why exactly it's okay to be not doing what it is that we should be doing. We all have dreams, big dreams! But most of us come up with excuses as to why their dreams aren't acquirable. That's because making your dream come to life takes work, a lot of hard work, effort, determination, dedication, discipline, etc. It's hard, but making excuses, that's easy. We come up with our own excuses just to give ourselves reasons as to why we aren't chasing our dreams. It gives us a sort of mental satisfaction. So, please! Don't make excuses! Your dreams are out there just waiting for you to grab them! You can do it! I believe in you!

      The psychological term is Cognitive Dissonance. It's where you believe in one thing (e.g: your goals or dreams) but you do something counterproductive (e.g: procrastination). That's uncomfortable for your brain to deal with because your mind is all you have to deal with the outside world and if something's not right, we can't really function. In order to restore order, you either change what you think or change what you do. In most circumstances it's more convenient to change what you belief/think in order accommodate the actions you've made instead of recognizing and changing your acitons, which is why we make excuses. That, and feeling depressed about it later are two almost separate process although they influence each other.

      Hi Doug,
      I’ve considered going vegetarian/vegan... I’ve been concerned about not getting enough protein or feeling bad... I would love to hear your experience and if you really feel better (physically) going vegan? Thank you for your input!

    • @MrFuzzyDoggie
      @MrFuzzyDoggie 4 года назад +2

      Tracy Dawn first things first. Most vegetables have proteins and/or the necessary amino acids that make up proteins. 100 calories of broccoli has more protein than 100 calories of sirloin steak Amazing! Insufficient protein consumption is pretty much unheard of as far as a medical condition in any first world countries. The consumption of animal fats and proteins is actually one of the leading causes of heart disease, kidney failure, etc...Having said that I always have a little pea protein milk in my oatmeal or granola, a fruit smoothie with protein powder or make delicious tofu scramble tacos for breakfast. I usually have beans in at least one meal a day and proteins in lots of other veggies. Yeah I feel great and I lost weight. People often think I am younger than I actually am. Good luck.

      @@nGAhGENVH0Ul No it's not. That's the whole point. Is that pain is a "governor" (as Goggins describes it) on our mind/body potential. It does signal that something is wrong, but pushing past that point allows you to unlock a mindset and access a part of your mind/body connection that you could not tap into before. Going past your pain threshold effectively puts YOU in control of your mind, instead of the norm - which is your MIND being in control of you. If you want to succeed, you need to go to war with yourself. Never give up, and push past the pain to something greater. Your pain receptors are just there to say "it's getting testy, this is NOT recommended", but just like anything else 'non-recommended' it doesn't mean it is FORBIDDEN! You can go past that point, you can do MORE, you can be BETTER - but only if you're willing to be the one in control of your mind and not the other way around. If you give in at the pain threshold, your mind knows it has the control and will stop you at 40% every time with everything you do. But if you start showing it that it's not in control and it's simply along for the ride and it better buckle up - then you've unlocked the ability to achieve nearly ANYTHING. Stay hard people. Let's go!!!

    I love that he talks about how hard it is to even know what goals to set based in being clear on your values, etc. I would say this does not just come from introspection but also bumping up against the world and maintaining awareness of how you feel/think about things. Everyone talks about goals, but not enough I think about the work involved in knowing yourself

    Although this interview was very insightful found it disappointing that Tom didn't invite Rich to Health Theory.
    Rich is a real proof that someone can be not only healthy while being vegan but athletic beyond the expectations almost people and at his age.
    Nutrition is totally important for health and athletic performance so, not learning from this guy would be a shame.

    Great interview and perspectives. I felt so much resonance because I have recently re-organized my life in a massive way towards my TRUE personal muse which is original songwriting, and my physical and mental health to support it.
    When Rich said, to find your true self, ask: Who do you resent? What keeps you up at night? What are you afraid of? I could honestly answer, a year ago I resented successful musicians, what kept me up at night was my anxiety about not making music, and what I was afraid of was losing myself in distractions and dying with the songs still in me.
    In the past 6-12 months everything has changed because I've completely refocused my daily activities and habits around my health and my music. I've written 15 new songs in the past 3 months, with more on the way - that's more songs than I wrote in the previous 30 years combined.
    I still have other aspects of my "former life" to keep up with, but now they have the PURPOSE and CONTEXT of supporting the muse at the core of my heart, and everything is so much clearer, happier, less anxious, and more productive.
    There's a long way to go, but I'm not afraid or anxious anymore :)

    Great interview. I am always pushing myself through the pain barrier (extreme sports, cold water swimming etc =ultimate high) but I do always question the fine line between pain and punishment. Those who have suffered in life can become addicted to pain and seek it in another form which seems healthy, as it is sport based. No criticism of Rich Roll as I don't know his story, but just something that has crossed my mind when doing extreme sports. Would be interested to hear other people's point of view on this?

    The best interview you've done by far in terms of core value but you could have gone further. Your energy didn't at all match Rich's, so I guess that's why. What a shame you didn't ask him about being animal compassion and a plant diet; you seem very closed minded on that subject, Tom. It's a beautiful way to live and a huge part of why Rich is so chill and insightful. To truly understand a guest, you can't avoid a huge part of what made them the person they are because of personal bias. (Plant based needs more of a look of you ask me. Can't wait for the 'Game Changers' athlete film to come out this year, going to be incredible, you might find it interesting, Tom)

    He is lucky that he did not get sidetracked by prescription drugs during those 100 days that he was in Rehab. That was in the '80's. If it was 10-20 years later Big Pharma probably would have convinced him to take prescription drugs. This interview inspires me to get out of my comfort zone.

    I may have already commented some time ago about this interview, but truly, both Rich and Tom are two of my favorite influencers. I follow both of you and gain valuable insights from each. When I made the conscious effort to change my eating from the SAD (standard American Diet) to a whole food plant based eating protocol, Rich Roll gave me some great info to follow. In addition, at 35 years sober, I loved hearing your story about recovery. And with Tom, my sister and I both enjoyed hearing any of your experts on The Impact Theory show while during a time of healing from surgery. Powerful stuff and I still gain so much. Wisdom on steroids is the best way to describe what I get from both of you.

My husband and I started a compnay at the begining of the year and we've been pursuing and growing and grinding since then. I was pushed out of my full time job. My husband and I decided what a perfect opportunity to really dive in and get shit done to grow our business! I have to admit it's been about a month we're one salary down and we are struggling hard financially. Bills are late, Christmas is coming. But Rich your story has shown me this is just part of the journey and if I continute to grind and put in the work it will pay off! As you say Tom the struggle is guaranteed the success is not. I refuse to back down! If I loose tangable comforts o well my dreams and ambitions are bigger than my stuggle. My spirit is in tact. My intentions and code of ethics are true to who I am and how i'm living! I just have to keep going! Thank you so much for all you do! I'll meet you at the top one day! 🙌🙌

I loved the fact that you called out Rich and made sure everyone knew even though Rich is doing awesome now, that is not where he came from. The amount of humility is still mind boggling to me. Again, this was amazing. Thank you Tom for all the time you take to find and interview these giants.
