In Search of Mastery With Dr. Michael Gervais | Rich Roll Podcast

[@processoperator1]

How did I let this go beyond my radar for two years? Lol. There are so many great guests on your podcast lately Rich. First Goggins, then Dr Zach, then Shane Parrish...I'm blown away with the talent you have introduced into my life. (Still trying to find a hard copy of Shane's Module 1)...and now Michael Gervais! This guy talks about the subtleties that lay in the deep corners of my mind that I know and recognize, but are just on the fringes enough that I've never looked them directly in the eye. Fundamentals are key, and Michael is full of em. Rich...Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@ttenger6182]

I just had the exact same thought.

[@hrpowertools]

Holy shit! You did it again. The teacher(s) appear when the student (mind, space, feeling...) is ready. Much appreciation.

[@chrisosborne6710]

literally an "un"coincidence for me as well.

[@kellyplumb3561]

Challenges, I am rewiring my brain to be able to operate from the positive, I was very successful in my career but I was motivated through fear, and needing acceptance and approval. I was surviving, now I am working to reverse the conditioning to be able to be successful through my own self esteem, confidence and self approval.

[@ttenger6182]

Same. Deep grooves but achievable for sure

[@grimmortal]

I'm only 20 minutes in, and at this time of writing, I cannot believe this video has under 20k views and less than 400 thumbs up. Rich, you've been a breath of fresh air in the podcast game for me. You truly deserve much more and I hope you reach the heights of rogan, ferriss and gang someday soon. You're a rare breed of been there, done that who genuinely wants to discuss honest ideas without an ulterior agenda. Keep up the conversations and I wish you the best from India. Cheers!

Hate to lose vs love to win: My answer is that I just want to be in the battle, in the mix of things and involved in the contest at all. I’m running my first 50k ultra in 8 weeks and I just am excited to be a part of it. “Losing” would be not running because I chose not to/didn’t train/quit.

[@hglatGAIA]

Awesome, thank you both!

[@DJSTOEK]

Thank you

[@nickpinkerton615]

GOLD! GOLD! GOLD! What an awesome podcast! The content here is just so rich. Thanks to both Rich (for his vulnerability) and Michael (for pulling back the curtain on the process of figuring some really tough stuff out).

[@fabfabi70]

I'm thankful for Rich and the information he provides for us!

[@HarbingerBK]

Fabulous conversation! Our family philosophy is "have fun and don't be a jerk." To word it more effusively would be something like: live consciously -- engage in the moment through movement, time in nature, and meaningful relationships, but take care not to impede others' self-fulfillment or journey while having your fun. But yeah, I could definitely spit out "HAVE FUN AND DON'T BE A JERK!" in a dark alley while under duress :)

[@qwerty123456789048]

This conversation is straight up EPIC!! So many gems you can take away and apply in your own life no matter what your field is! The mind is so interesting!! Great job to both of you!!!

[@jonascampos1895]

Amazing episode Rich! Such an well done podcast, and awesome conversation. Doctor Gervais is truly special.

[@joanaukali4498]

Awesome! Action inspiring! Many thanks!

[@raminsafizadeh]

Best podcast I have heard. Authentic, real and informed. Thank you to both.

[@drewa1999]

Another awesome session Rich(and Mike too!) You'd be proud, I am listening while steaming an artichoke and sautéing some mushrooms, Dino kale and rainbow chard. Fuel for tonight and tomorrow's swim! Thank You!!

[@JustKeepLivin-underthesun]

WOW. Great convo. Micheal couldn't have said it better..Rich, you are consistently putting yourself out there (and revealing your own "flaws") to help us feel better about our own imperfections. And that (as Micheal puts it) "free space" where we feel less guilty about those short comings. Allows us the oppertunity to feel capable of greatness, despite our internal feelings of doubt and insignificance. Amazing stuff as always. Please keep doing what you do__Can't wait to put the Philosophy assignment to work!!

[@cpq2d4zr]

So enjoyed your podcasts. I benefit with your insight and the input of others. Your guests have been the greatest. I have benefited from all I have listened to.

[@juliaalemao4425]

YES TO MICHAEL'S IDEA🌟🌟👏👏 love you both❤

[@Vineeth..v]

One great conversation.

[@vromolo]

Iv just meet you, Rich, from the doc What a Hell and im very excited to keep following your content because your philosophy really fits on what iv been looking for every day. That kind of daily search of self awareness that you said. Cheers from Brazil, my new friend.

[@zeyism3981]

Most enjoyable interview I have ever listened to, great great one, so much take from both of you, together you are powerhouse 💪thank you guys,it was so much fun in intense way if that possible to say.

[@DP-sh3nk]

Two great guys, very authentic. Loved it!

[@aloneboarder]

Rich, that's a great podcast! Thank you! Can we expect you interviewing Frank Medrano? I'd love to see this!

[@DamonBowe]

The filming is freaking great, Rich! Loving it!

[@mattsheather8065]

Hey Rich, Great work again. This is the next level stuff I have been waiting for. I'm privileged to have been on an incredible journey navigated in part by you and those you have on your podcast for the past 17 months. Can you help me bring to the surface my philosophy, which I know is growing inside me, and start me down this richer path. I look forward to the fruition of the things talked about in this podcast. My family wouldn't be in the positive space we are in with out you and Julie. Thank you

[@joelwitherspoon8161]

Thank you Rich for your honesty, and willingness to be vulnerable with truths about yourself....great episode

[@jessejamesjohnston]

Thanks for going deep and vulnerable Rich✌ Great show today. Love the philosophy idea!! Mark Divine has a nice outline on how to create a philosophy in his book The Way of the Seal.

[@miguelmontano4740]

Great conversation guys, I appreciate your transparency, thanks for doing what you do

[@daniellelevy6556]

Resonated deeply. Thank you. As always.

[@alanhill6852]

Great job guys - thoroughly enjoyed this. Really liked the more in-depth back and forth conversation. You both are doing amazing work and I'm thankful a get to participate from afar. Michael - love to win or hate to loose. What does it tell you about the 5% that answer love to win. Curious - this was my choice although Rich had the perfect answer as usual. Thanks again and please keep them coming - you're making a bigger difference that you'll both ever imagine.

[@danilomartinsrezende2920]

Always great!!! I wonder how would be add guru Singh in this convo. ✌🏽+🌱

[@processoperator1]

We need a Guru Singh cast soon.

[@Marvellouseffortthat]

Such a great episode

[@zoorrken]

Isn't "I should have done X" honesty? I know I should have done something but I didn't do it. It could highlight a lack of self-discipline, maybe the issue is not letting it go, not trusting yourself that you'll get it done. When I lose the discipline then I get pulled in every direction, every little impression affects me. I get lost in things that don't really matter and I lose structure. I still have goals I'm working on but not a meaningful day-day life in the sense of something that gets my absolute attention. How do you find something to focus on that you really find meaningful, that gets you up in the morning?

[@KARONROWE]

OMG! I would LOVE to get a session with this man!

[@allycoubert9461]

I wonder if I can relate to what drives Olympic gold medalist. Even thou this is relatable and I can use a ton, I have dillemas and attitudes to work they overcame long time ago. Just different part of the journey. Which buggies me if I can find a way to change the basics, which often in personal development are assumed.

[@moonbeaches]

Equanimity (Latin: æquanimitas, having an even mind; aequus even; animus mind/soul) is a state of psychological stability and composure which is undisturbed by experience of or exposure to emotions, pain, or other phenomena that may cause others to lose the balance of their mind. The virtue and value of equanimity is extolled and advocated by a number of major religions and ancient philosophies. Look up equanimity in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

[@andreafuzzi9484]

shame is excess of awareness,to find friends,better pour out stuff and enjoy comrads again

[@salouaterguy9197]

why does he sound like scott from the kardashians lol

[@Dingdongwitchisdead]

I used to be an avid Michael Gervais Finding Mastery podcast listener. I am so disappointed that Michael continues to push the SJW agenda on his podcast. If your ashamed to be a white, heterosexual, man who feels a deep need to apologize wherever you can, this podcast is for you. I'll look elsewhere for my daily podcast.
