Join me for this power-packed episode of Impact Theory with revolutionary entrepreneur Alex Hormozi. Today’s episode is for the person who’s looking for the ultimate traits for success and how to harness them for your benefit.
Alex has proven that he embodies the 3 traits of the ultra-successful: a superiority complex, crippling insecurity, and impulse control. As he points out, it’s not enough to just have these traits to be successful. We delve into these paradoxical attributes and discuss how they can fuel your ambitions.
Alex shares why his mantra - "What amount of action would it be unreasonable for me not to be successful?" has led to $100 million success. He challenges the notion of being "too busy" and offers actionable advice on overcoming this obstacle. If you're just starting out or aiming for six or seven figures, this conversation is a goldmine of insights.
With Alex's Rule of 100, we'll guide you on how to reward and punish yourself to start achieving goals big and small. We also explore how to filter large data sets for higher business results - a skill Alex mastered while building his multimillion-dollar empire.
Get ready to question your core beliefs, stop wasting time, and build a winning identity. Subscribe now and let's embark on this journey together. Let's not just aim for bigger; let's strive for better.

Money Making Quotes from Alex Hormozi:
“If you can wait a year, you can make a ton of money, [..] if you can wait a decade, you’re going to be above the 1%, [...] and if you can wait a lifetime and you don’t even need to see the result of your doing this even while you are alive, [...] then I believe you can change the world.”

I love this guy!! I love how he explains why salespeople come off kringy.. which he definitely doesn't do. I'm currently reading $100M Leads and finding it very easy to understand and implement.

Here are 7 Highly Traits Of Successful People : 1-) Ability To Think 10X Bigger Than Most 2-) Having A Curious Mind 3-) Delayed Gratification 4-) Emotional Resilience 5-) Obsession and Focus 6-) Ability To Take Risks 7-) Unreal Tolerance For Stress I 100 % agree with Alex , it ain't about cold showers, waking up at 5 : 30 am , exercising each day , having the best diet , meditating or not meditating.. It is all about these 7 traits that make the difference ..

[@Marcusbreum]

Although these other habits you mention are sometimes prerequisites for building the foundation of these highly succesful traits e.g. exercising for emotional resilience and stress tolerance

[@mustafabaris9681]

Good point Marcus .. I think that the biggest key to success lies in how strong of an emotional resilience you can build .. Perhaps emotional resilience is the foundation where the other traits that I mentioned stand on .. @@Marcusbreum

[@w1948d]

Without diet and exercise.....I would be already dead. Yes....I have all 7 traits and enjoy so called success

My takeaways: The Virtuous Success Cycle ○ Core idea #1: Action > Result ○ If you want to achieve a certain outcome, you need to take the right actions to move towards that outcome ○ No action > no results / wrong action > no results / directionally correct action > directional progress towards result ○ Takeaway A: So the first step has to be knowing your outcome, vision, purpose with absolute clarity ○ Takeaway B: The second step is to create a plan with a set of actions that move you towards your outcome ○ Core idea #2: Emotion > Action ○ Without emotion, we would not act ○ Emotions generate the energy / desire required to act. We act to receive pleasure or avoid pain. ○ But emotions can also prevent action. Fear and doubt prevent us from acting. ○ The more painful the action is the more energy is required to act. ○ The action becomes inherently less painful the better you get at it because it increases the likelihood and quality of a positive outcome. The more you do it, the better you get. Just start. ○ Takeaway C: Learn how to create empowering emotions. ○ Takeaway D: Learn to overcome fear and doubt and turn them into certainty and trust. ○ Takeaway E: Make actions more enjoyable and less painful (rewards, environment) ○ Takeaway F: Do the reps to increase your rate of learning ○ Core idea #3: Story > Emotion ○ Our emotions are a conditioned response to external stimuli based on the meaning we attribute to the stimuli ○ We can chose a different meaning / story to help create a more empowering emotion ○ We can also create external stimuli by creating cues as a reminder to tell ourselves a better story or ask an empowering question to create a desired emotion ○ Takeaway G: Create cues to trigger a better story > emotion > action response ○ Takeaway H: Take control of your inner dialogue / mindset by crafting more empowering stories / beliefs ○ Core idea #4: Results > Learning ○ When you act you create a result (see core idea #1). ○ The result holds a valuable learning opportunity: Did my action create the desired outcome? If not, what can I change to get a better outcome next time? If yes, how can I do it better or more in the future? ○ This happens at a micro and a macro level. The more repetitions you get, the more you learn. ○ Takeaway I: Take time to reflect and distill the learnings on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual basis ○ Takeaway J: Update your plan as required ○ Core idea # 5: Learning > Skills / Leverage / Growth ○ The more you learn, the better you become. Learnings turn into improved skills and leverage. ○ Improved skills includes telling yourself better stories, improving your strategies, and building unconcious competence ○ Takeaway K: Invest time in learning to improve your leverage and ultimately achieve your outcomes faster ○ This creates a virtuous cycle that happens at a micro-level (hourly / daily) and a macro level (weekly / monthly / etc.) ○ Story > Emotion > Action > Results > Learning > Growth > Story …

You should totally blog this, man! 🎉

[@SusheeNzeutem]

it looks like a 6-months old interview of Hormozi

[@matthewragudo]

Yea. I’m pretty sure this is old. But, it’s still valuable. I recently realized that I should stick with an episode until I get the change in my behaviors before I watch another.

[@musashimedia]

Here are the 3 traits of ultra successful people summarized in bullet points: - They have a superiority complex and believe they deserve more than others. - They have crippling insecurity and fear they will never be good enough. - They have impulse control and can focus on a single thing for an extended period of time. Alex says that these 3 traits are not about whether you have them or not, but rather to what degree. He also says that the ability to delay gratification is one of the most important factors in success. People who can wait longer for results are more likely to achieve great things. Alex also talks about the importance of branding and how it can be used to direct people's behavior. He says that a strong brand can help you make more money and achieve your goals. I hope this summary is helpful!

[@pebblepod30]

thanks

[@ozairraja5782]

Tom's energy matched with Alex's insights made this a very good watch. Great work man!

This whole economic chaos was powered by optimism that the FED is done with hiking interest rates. But now that rate crash is the situation and times are uncertain, how would you advise I safely allocate $250k?

[@Alejandracamacho357]

there are sure a few ways to hedge against inflation. Avoid rumors or hearsay, with that amount you can afford a certified financial planner strategize ways to do that.

[@PhilipMurray251]

Agreed, After taking charge of my portfolio in early 2017, i stumbled into losses. Upon realizing that a change was necessary, I consulted a fiduciary advisor in 2020 and since then my $1.2m portfolio has gained 28% annually through restructuring and diversification using dividend equities, ETFs, mutual funds, and REITs.

[@kurttSchuster]

great gains there! mind sharing details of your advisor pleas? i've started gaining more cash flow with my employment and looking at putting money into stocks and alternative assets that can help build wealth over time

[@PhilipMurray251]

NATALIE ANN BRINKMAN is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment

[@kurttSchuster]

I searched her up online and checked out her credentials since I was so intrigued. Top-notch! I emailed her to inquire about accepting new clients.

[@LunaCox-fu8fi]

Well explained. Thank you for bringing up this video. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject ..... Thanks to Mylah Evander the lady you recommended.....

Going through the process is the hardest part of life but when you push through it and get to your goal it’s the best feeling ever. We fail when we want instant results or instant satisfaction

[@delicious6811]

This was one of the best podcasts I have ever watched. Thank you guys so much

[@transformwithlev]

I absolutely love Alex’s business advice and content so I’m not commenting as a hater. With that being said trauma is a major impediment to success for severely traumatized people. It’s because you’re trapped in fight or flight when you have PTSD. In that situation processing, releasing, and ultimately healing your trauma is critical for success and frankly just not suffering and being miserable.

[@rubiepatrick973]

I was thinking the same thing. I wouldn't be as quick to dismiss the benefits of therapy although I do agree that "too much time" is being spent hyperfocusing on talking about the feelings themselves. Both speakers do mention quite often how there's a lot of confusion arising from lack of (self) awareness of what one's actually feeling and/or why, not knowing what one's purpose is...these are all issues that can be resolved in therapy. How I'll put it is, they tend to go hand-in-hand. You can't dismiss committing to learning the Alphabets of a language simply because the books you want to read and conversation you wish to have are comprised of words and not individual alphabets. There's a connection and these things tend to build on themselves.

[@mathiastrojahn8691]

Hormozi x Bilyeu? I don’t even need to watch this before liking it - this already SCREAMS “valueable”. Thank you!

[@mustafaomer3276]

I was waiting for this for along time and it’s the first video on KZbin that i liked before watching… ♥️🤝

[@DomenicT]

I’ve followed Alex and Tom for a few years now and these two coming together is one of the best teams I’ve ever seen regarding how to change your behavior. They tackle the issue of making change from different angles and even perspectives at times, but they land in the exact same place ultimately. 1. You have to do it, period. No one can do this for you. 2. There’s no magic beans(easy ways) but you can make it easier on yourself through knowledge and perspective (framing.) 3. We have to accept our fundamental nature along with the situation we find ourselves in first (acceptance.) 4. You solve problems with some deliberation but a LOT more action. 5. If you can’t delay gratification you’re not going to get anywhere. 6. There is no specific formula for everyone. Just experiences we can share and draw from, but we all have to figure out what works for ourselves in the end as THAT’S the real journey here. Thank you both for so much authenticity and love over the years. I wish you both as much success as you can possibly imagine 🎉

[@alf3071]

I have the crippling insecurities but without the success

[@laurieclarkson9180]

I know what you mean. I think it's a combination of having moments where insecurity is crippling and getting so sick of yourself and so haunted by the ways your insecurity has ruined your life, that you start using your insecurities as fuel. To use it as motivation instead of an excuse. I heard recently that we should get a piece of paper and write down everything that has been said to you in your life that really hurt you deeply. Maybe a teacher called you stupid, a parent called you a loser, an ex lover said you're the worst person they've ever been with, your boss said you're lazy...look at all of it and examine how it all made you feel. Why did these people say these things about you? Were they right? Why did it hurt? Why does it haunt you? Do you see any patterns? Have you ever given them and yourself PROOF that you're not those things? You have to prove it. Use insecurity to drive you to prove those people wrong.

[@MarvishaN]

What an interview, watched to the very end. Really need your help Tom, I’m 52 and disabled since 2009 with $600K net worth. Already have shares in Real estate (properties for rent) Stocks (dividends) Bonds (interest) etc But I'd still love to spread my investments across the fin- markets ahead of retirement. Can you help me?

[@debwes1]

Just buy BITCOIN and hold. Or find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. But advisably, just seek counsel from a market strategist.

[@josephbush]

Agreed, I’ve been investing in the fin market for 11 years now, last 4 years with the help of a financial planner apparently due to the covid-19 pandemic crash. Throughout these years of guidance alone, I've been fortunate enough to 10x my return as a DIY investor, summing up nearly $1m roi as of today

[@aureliobjm]

@josephbush Mind leaving info of your advisor here please?

[@josephbush]

She's known as a 'HEATHER LEE LARIONI'. So easy and compassionate Lady. You should take a look at her work.

"You see problems are not hard to solve. The problem is that people do not want their problems solved. What people seek is a resolution which will give them their preferred outcome and relieve them of the discomfort which they are feeling. Here there is plotting and scheming. Here outcomes are considered to be more important than the truth until the truth becomes more important than the outcomes." _Wisdom from the Greater Community, Book One - Chapter 26: Stillness_

[@maxalto]

It’s a replay

[@paulaCvenecia]

15:15 Another frame, as to why some people give us the creeps, is we've seen up close very manipulative people (critical years 7-14), claiming to be doing something for our own good but either with a "I won over you attitude" or a more problematic one: this is not really good for you. That is why many people get scammed and some of us are like: the guy/gal had a neon sign all over their face with helicopters around, how you did not see that?!?!" kind of situation. I'm not saying that everyone that manipulates is out to get you but I'm saying if you saw that while growing up, you'll likely at the very least, have problems with authority.... if you're not right out distrustful.

[@TheOGDesigner]

[@YungKingz__]

Frame control is everything

[@nasiridris6871]

Harmozi is someone you 🎉 trust your kid with him ❤❤❤😊

[@TTAG01]

51:03 the missing component is being able to assess objectively, the energy being emitted from a person, amidst whatever perceived emotions they may want to feed you. If you are connected with reading or picking up on a persons energy, you won’t be bamboozled by them if you detect something as being off despite how they claim to be or feel emotionally. Then you can get down to extracting honesty.

[@rubiepatrick973]

Great analysis, especially applicable to Passive-Aggressive behaviour. Although, it would pay to temper the expectation of "extracting honesting" with knowledge of the fact that it is not possible to control other people's behaviour. For example, regardless of how expert you get at picking up on people's energies, correctly reading between the lines or judging a person's character, if they simply refuse to admit to something when you call them out...then that's that. Also, you'd want to be mindful of not indirectly reinforcing "dishonest" behaviour by overwhelming them with forced confrontation/conflict resolution, which is what they were trying to avoid with whatever indirect tactics they chose to adopt in the first place. It's a really delicate thing, navigating (difficult) conversations.

[@TTAG01]

@RubiePatrick. Thank you Rubie, I do hear you but for me past a point I wouldn’t keep tip toeing around a person whose energy I felt to I be off, me telling them what I feel, is me giving them an opportunity to be open and honest, if they don’t take that and I still feel the same way, I will just remove myself from the situation and them.

[@GorzaanFan]

A common theme between most ultra successful people is that they have built a mental model of a few beliefs that they use to make choices, act and form habits which move them towards their goals. I’m curious. what are some of the core beliefs that they have that is optimized for success?

[@tonykato449]

Not giving a shoot about what people think

[@GorzaanFan]

@@tonykato449 That’s not a core belief that drives success, although can be very useful. Homeless people don’t care what anyone thinks either

[@adversaryproductions5298]

I just listened today, such valuable information! What have you changed in your life since listening?

[@laurieclarkson9180]

I love everything about this, but I particularly like definitions of emotions. I suck at emotional intelligence. I feel very overwhelmed and often sabotaged in life by emotions. I like his approach to them, which seems easier said than done. I'd like to learn more about emotions because I do feel many people struggle with feeling them, controlling them, and not letting them stand in your way. Big self sabotager.

[@TTAG01]

44:28 very good points being made on both sides here but I do think if you can offer healthy alternatives that make a person feel that they are not having to compromise on taste or on how something typically bad might make them feel but is actually good for them, then you’re definitely on to something.

[@stefashaler8340]

As someone who believes the only success worth devoting myself to is being kind; giving whole-hearted, full tilt kindness to life, I'm happy to hear most people aren't willing to become fall into brutal, self-interested iron-clad focus on competition. The paltry goal of amassing money is a breeze compared to deeply feeling and expressing kindness in all circumstances.

[@sebone]

Reupload? Still good to revisit. 👍🏽

[@grantwalkersound]

What Alex doesn't seem to realize is that his concepts surrounding narratives, emotion, and identity... are nothing more than a narrative and identity he constructed for himself, likely as a coping mechanisms for the emotions he clearly shows discomfort in confronting. That being said, a lot of his advice and perspective is brilliant.

[@rubiepatrick973]

Lol. I noticed too, but was glad to hear him own, quite often, how unique his experiences are to him. For example, when they were talking about "Your life is a total reflection of your choices" and mentioning tornadoes as unfortunate circumstances outside of your control but that you can still choose to respond differently to, but that doesn't apply in every situation in my opinion. The current realities of the citizens of Gaza are definitely not a 100% reflection of their choices in life, if anything, it's the consequences of choices of OTHER people. And that's something I would've loved to hear speak more on, or at least acknowledge .

[@johnwright6403]

Alex! Please writ the book on. Brand!

[@coders7845]

Amazing

[@rubiepatrick973]

"Your life is a total reflection of your choices." I'll like to have you guys share your different opinions on this. Here's mine: This isn't always true and even the times that it is, is isn't all the time. Tom mentions the example of tornadoes as an unfortunate event outside of your control but that you can still choose to respond differently to, but that doesn't apply in every situation, in my opinion. The current REALITIES, (not just a one-off event they can "choose to respond differently to") of the citizens of Gaza are definitely not a 100% reflection of their own choices in life, if anything, it's the consequences of the choices of OTHER people. And that's something I would've loved to hear them speak more on, or at least acknowledge .

You need resources to make continuous efforts to succeed over time, that's not a luxury everyone has

[@rubiepatrick973]

I'm going to quote something Sam Altman (CEO Open AI) said in his blog post of "How to Be Successful" that just perfectly validates what you just said: "One of the biggest reasons I'm excited about basic income is the amount of human potential it will unleash by freeing more people to take risks. Until then, if you aren't born lucky, you have to claw your way up for awhile before you can take big swings. If you are born in extreme poverty, then this is super difficult :( It is obviously an incredible shame and waste that opportunity is so unevenly distributed. But I've witnessed enough people be born with the deck stacked badly against them and go on to incredible success to know it's possible. I am deeply aware of the fact that I personally would not be where I am if I weren't born incredibly lucky."

Hey Tom, was/is your wife the engine in your life? Or do you need to be your own engine? Maybe a kind soul can answer my question if they heard him already answering this question in a previous video/interview? Thanks ❤

[@authenticblackandgrey]

This is literally one of my favorite episodes 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@jasha9sandhu]

Came here to say this. "Work hard. Work harder." Howd you get started? "Oh my dads friend gave me this job at merril lynch" All us non rich/connected people 🙄🙄🙄🙄

amazing

[@francobola9920]

You should look at your face with your interview with Alex furmosi, and then your face with the psychology of money book. To vastly different interviews, push yourself to do some selling, so you don't have to call it luck all the time. We both know on both accounts it's just being prepared. Smile next time you see alex

The beautiful thing is most people fail because it is hard

[@rineleff2009]

Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them.

Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or trusted advisor in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields

[@user-fb2hk7vu3q]

This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite difficult to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?

[@gilbertbrien2280]

Absolutely! A good number of people discredit the effectiveness of financial advisors, but over the past 2 years I've had an advisor who consistently restructure and diversity my portfolio and I've made over $4million in gains. I find myself secured financially right now.

[@maxwelltroy2375]

I've actually been looking into advisors lately, the news I've been seeing in the market hasn't been so encouraging. who's the person guiding you?

[@gilbertbrien2280]

She goes by 'Wendy Birkett' . I choose to delegate my excesses to her because of her great expertise. I suggest you look her up. To be honest, almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finances, but so glad I did!!!
