Passion and delusion aren't two terms we often think of working in harmony but my good friend and guest today, Bert Sorin, makes the case that some of the most successful people in the world are not only the most passionate but often believe (with no valid reason to) that they have what it takes to succeed. Today, we talk about the ebbs and flows of life and improving the average between the two points, creating intentionality behind our actions, why EQ is oftentimes more important than IQ, holding back in life when we shouldn't, and so much more. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS The ebbs and flows of life and improving the average between the two points Creating intentionality behind our actions Why EQ is often more important than IQ Holding back in life when we shouldn't Thinking in advance Rather than thinking "what can this give me today", think "what can it give when I'm gone".

Life is full of hard-learned lessons. We all know that. But it's been said that, "A smart man learns from his mistakes, a wise man learns from the mistakes of others." That's why this podcast is so powerful – because we get to hear from incredible men doing incredible things who can teach us things that would be painful, delayed, and expensive to find out ourselves. And, I can think of few men as qualified to do so as former NASA Astronaut, Mike Massimino. Today, Mike and I talk about some of his best lessons learned in the NASA program and in space including, "no one leaves the pool until everyone passes the test," learning to adjust to life and your goals along the way, what was different about NASA astronaut candidates that made them successful, knowing when to pivot and break a few rules, and how to achieve the seemingly impossible. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Mike Massimino's books Moonshot and Spaceman What it takes to be an astronaut Space isn't always glamorous Passion and dedication Military culture If you really understand something, you should be able to communicate it to anybody.

We all know there is a formula for success in any venture. We've all heard things like, "success leaves clues," and seen certain people replicate success over and over and over again. And, yet, so many men struggle to create and maintain success on the professional and personal front of their lives. That's why it's so important we learn what protocols are required to achieve the results we desire. Today, I'm joined by philosopher and CEO, Brian Johnson to talk about his theory of Arete and why success on any level is so simple yet so elusive. We talk about what confidence in others actually is and how to develop it, how talent won't get you all the way to your goals, why intrinsic motivation must be your pursuit, and the Stockdale Paradox and how to use it to your advantage. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: Brian's upcoming book Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential Maintaining trust and integrity gaps What were you doing when you were at your best? Creating micromoments Being grateful for the little things The meaning behind the word "hero" Ancient wisdom, modern science, and practical tools Training heroes Order of Man Merchandise.
