Ep. 222 - Ryan Holiday: The Essential Question: How To Live A Good Life

Ep. 222 - Ryan Holiday: The Essential Question: How To Live A Good Life

I tried to ruin Ryan Holiday's life. Fortunately, I failed. I told him to start an agency, build it up, sell it for 10 million dollars and THEN start writing books. "It's a good thing you didn't listen to me," I said. But I was wrong. It turned out he took my advice. "It made me super unhappy and it cost me a bunch of friendships," he said. "But it's not your fault. I know there are a lot of things that could make me money, but what I really like is writing. That's what I want my life to be." "So what if you don't know what you want your life to be?" I asked. "What should you do?" "That's the essential question," he said... A) SELF-WORTH IS NOT NET-WORTH Most writers die penniless. I can't think of a profession where I can name as many suicides as writing. I'm jealous of the people who don't write actually. Making business deals and going to work is so much more profitable than trying to tear your soul apart and put words on a piece of paper most people won't read. There's only one writer in history to become a billionaire. (J.K. Rowling, if you're reading... come on my podcast!) So why does anyone do it? I don't know. I do it because it's what I would do if I had nothing again. It's what I would do with everything. It's the one thing that makes me feel like I am going places without moving. B) VICTIM OR HERO Everyone wants to be the hero of their own story. I do. But I chose victim for years. I lost everything and I wanted the world to pick me back up. I'm not mad at the world for leaving me on the floor. I'm grateful. Because it let me pick myself up. It let me choose myself. "Stoicism is a practical philosophy and it works," Ryan said. "Define 'works'." "At its core, it says you don't control the world around you. You control how you respond to the world around you." He told me about the two most prominent practitioners of Stoicism. One was Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor. He had all the power in the world. His favorite Stoic was a slave, Epictetus, who was banished from Rome by a past emperor. "You have extreme wealth and power using the philosophy, and it's helping them," Ryan said. "And then you have extreme adversity, difficulty and powerlessness using the philosophy and it's helping them. To me, that's working." C) LOOK FORWARD TO THE BAD THINGS People are losing their jobs. And they're afraid. I asked Ryan if the Stoics have a practice for fear. He said, "The Stoics call that amor fati, which in Latin means 'a love of fate...' You look forward to the bad things because they were made just for you." D) MAKE YOUR JOB IRRELEVANT This is the key to all advancement in life. Make your job irrelevant. Burn the bridges behind you. "You should be trying to make your job or your role irrelevant because what you're actually proving is that you know how to do things, you know when something is working, and you're able to come up with the next thing," Ryan said. "When an employee comes to you and says, 'I know my job was to run this marketing department, but over the last 6 months I've automated X and Y. I've hired someone who's incredibly talented, sales are up X percent and I don't have that much to do.' Your boss doesn't go to their boss and say, 'Well how do we get rid of James?" They go, "James is f**king killing it.'" "That's how you work through or up an organization," he said. "No one says, 'Your book was so amazing Ryan, we don't need anymore books from you.' They go, 'What are you writing next?'" E) DON'T BE AN ADDICT I was listing the pillars of Stoicism. I wanted to know if I understood. So I said, - Integrity, (universal integrity, for example: never lie to get what you want) - Fairness (Help the people around you. Even if it hurts you. If it helps someone more than it hurts you, it's just.) Then Ryan jumped in. "Temperance," he said, which means don't be an addict to some other force. Don't be an addict to anything. F)...

Three Traders Walk into a Chat Room... | WallStreetBets Founder Jaime Rogozinski

Jaime Rogozinski founded the WallStreetBets sub-Reddit in 2012 during the height of the #OccupyWallStreet movement as a response to how banks use the stock market like a casino. The community provides low-capital investors opportunities and information on how to leverage huge returns in opposition to 'traditional' investing which takes years to generate wealth via compound interest. During the pandemic, the forum exploded in notoriety when the group invested heavily in GameStop, AMC, and other 'meme stocks'. Today, Jaime dives into the history of the group he founded and divulges information on the new 'gamified investing' platform he's looking to launch in 2023!Additional topics include:The difference between WallStreetBets members and "traditional" Investors (00:04:13)The history and ethos of WallStreetBets (00:19:49)"Three traders walk into a chat room..."

Is There Anyone You Wouldn't Interview? | Andrew Gold

Is There Anyone You Wouldn't Interview? | Andrew Gold

"If there are three ways to win status: one is dominance, one is success, and one is virtue." Fan favorite guest Andrew Gold returns to the show for a 2-part, 2-hour meta-interview focusing on the thornier aspects of interviewing polarizing guests and how the public reacts.In recent years, Andrew Gold has hosted psychopaths, gang members, accused murderers, and cult members. James has taken an apolitical - or possibly anti-political - approach to the guests on his show. While Andrew has been relatively unscathed, James continues to receive backlash from both sides of the political spectrum when interviewing polarizing figures.Enjoy the show's first episode recorded in person at James' house in Georgia!Also make sure to check out his podcast with the link below:https://podfollow.com/on-the-edge-with-andrew-gold------------Visit Notepd.com to read our idea lists & sign up to create your own!My new book Skip the Line is out!
