0:00.0 | All right, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Facebook Live Q&A as Cindy is over there discussing somewhat with herself about her musical habits. |
0:09.2 | But we appreciate being invited into that conversation. And to Cindy's aunt, we are making a promise that we are going to get |
0:16.0 | a theme song recorded for Cindy and hopefully sung live while perched on your chair. So big ups to your aunt. |
0:23.7 | And we're going to make it happen. All right, everybody. So we're super excited to have you guys here today. Yesterday was an amazing day for everybody here at Impact 3. Unfortunately, we can't give very many details, but just know that it was a red letter day. |
0:36.6 | I was certainly in an amazing mood. It was incredible. You're never going to hear me say the words put things out into the universe, but I will say tell things to people because you will be shocked what you can make happen when you start telling people what you're trying to accomplish. |
0:51.6 | And then as long as you're willing to back it up with a massive, massive crushing bias towards action, you'll be surprised what you can pull off. So yesterday, we moved to ball forward. That is very, very exciting. And hopefully it will come to fruition. One day, you never know lines in the water as Michael Strayhand says, but yesterday we put some serious lines in the water with some pretty exciting bait. So we'll see what comes of it. But yeah, red letter day. |
1:20.8 | Super exciting. Yes. All right. So hopefully we've got some questions to kick us off. Let's get deep. Let's go fast. So we have a few leftover from last session. This one's from IG from risk capy. What's the most generous thing someone has ever done for you? |
1:39.0 | My mom and my dad raised me and I think anybody that had a reasonable upbringing, if that isn't your answer, then you're probably just not thinking through the problem. And that's funny because I've actually never thought through that before. I've never had somebody ask me that question, but that is the immediate answer. |
1:55.1 | The fact that they give so much of themselves to ensure that you make it into adulthood. And honestly, I am not sure how children survive childhood. I think that kids take an absurd amount of risk. |
2:08.0 | And do just really, really dumb stuff routinely. They don't have a prefrontal cortex that fully developed. So the fact that parents have to constantly chase you, watch you feed you, close you, buy things for you. Make sure you get educated, point you in the right direction, all that good stuff. |
2:22.8 | Incredibly, incredibly generous. I don't think anything even comes close to that. I don't think so either. Like it's crazy. Yeah. |
2:31.0 | And then this one comes from Sean Z also from Instagram on an episode of IQ Tony you and Tony were able to discuss the benefits of aligning your happiness to consistent measurable progress. |
2:44.9 | So in short, happiness equals progress. Have you been able to find a lot of success with that in your life? |
2:52.1 | Yeah, that was a real breakthrough for me coming from Tony Robbins's notion that one of the most fundamental building blocks of human happiness is progress. And that's when I really began to think about mastery and gaining mastery and how the pursuit of mastery really is so fundamental to human happiness. |
3:09.6 | And I think it was Ed DC who we had on Inside Quest who talked a lot about how humans are an active species. And that became something that I thought a lot about. |
3:19.6 | And when people really put their finger on something that is fundamental and really foundational to the human experience. And that's what I'm really responding to in the power of myth. I'm rereading it now. |
3:30.6 | You know, something like 17 or 18 years after I read it for the first time. And it really is looking at it through the framework of finding those fundamental foundational things. |
3:43.3 | And that really was Joseph Campbell's life work is what are the elemental is what he calls it. What are the elemental beliefs that we have that really span cultures that just seem truly fundamental to the human experience in a way that we're wired. |
3:55.0 | And being an active species going in assessing an area and then trying to gain mastery or hold dominion over it. I think is something really fundamental will help people really understand something about themselves about why we have drive in general. |
4:10.1 | Like why we want to go in and get good why we want to master things and that because it's so fundamental when you tap into that acknowledge that an act in accordance with it. I think you really can find lasting fulfillment. It isn't momentary happiness because a lot of times gaining master is very painful. It's it's grit. Right. It's holding interest in something over the long period of time pushing through when it gets boring. |
4:30.4 | And you know having enough interest in that that you just keep going keep going. But that that framework happiness of becoming something I think is the only thing that really is lasting and equals fulfillment. |
4:44.0 | Makes sense. Yeah. |
