Thank you

[@loveliberationpod]

21:42 You just changed my life, truly, i’ve been on a self development journey for more than 6 years now. Ironing out stuff. These discussions about decision-making finally made me understand the real law of attraction. How to move through this world most efficiently. Every decision is an opportunity to not let fear win. The quicker you make decisions out of love that need to be made. The quicker you reach your full potential.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

“No work is wasted because I am the output of the work, not the outcome”. That was so good.

“I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over”. Such a powerful message

[@gaylosbernandez579]

Can someone explain in dumb?

[@YoungKrieger]

@@gaylosbernandez579 When you do the work, the things you learn and the person you become stay with you, regardless if you reach the success criteria of that task. So it's not a wasted work, you are now better because of that work, even the if it was a fail by some external criteria.

A man who thinks before he answers. A novelty. There’s hope. Great interview.

[@GomerBarnFloyd]

It bothers me to no end how some people would rather use filler words that make you sound less articulate than actually deal with silence to think out a response.

[@ItsMistaTee]

Was this statement at a particular time stamp?

[@Anonymous-mx8sh]

@@ItsMistaTeejust throughout the video, he gathers himself before he answers each question

[@xtabell5776]

I definitely agree it is a bad habit to respond immediately if one does not have his answer but if you get good at formulating yourself quickly on the spot is a good skill to have, you won't always have the time to think through a question. Though being uncomfortable with silence and scrambling for words is not a good habit(I do this more than I would like to admit) and having anxiety over what sounds best and what to say isn't that much better. I think for most people don't worry too much about what is the right approach when communicating but rather just practice, reflect and try different things out, once you get good at something it just happens if you think about what you are doing you will fuck up. If you have ever wondered why someone can play a guitar and sing at the same time or how Micheal Jackson can flow across the floor, there is literally no secret, at least nothing that can be put into words that will magically make you an expert. So just get out of your head and do stuff, and watch the universe unfold. One of the most complex things we do is walking and that just happens, despite all the tiny motions involved and the varying surfaces we roam across. Sorry for going on a tangent, just hope I can reach a younger me, goddamn we waste so much time.... Like shia Labeouf says: " JUST DO IT!" Lol

[@KeithRobinson-su5qg]

I noticed the exact same thing. Thoughtful answers are my favorite.

[@UldisBiz]

I'm 48 and I keep reminding myself how lucky we are to have such easy and comfortable access completely free to absolutely phenomenal wisdom. I remember times when I had to sift through books in the library just to find something useful. One episode like this can be life-changing for the person who takes it seriously and starts applying at least something out of this. Thank you Chris and Alex so much. You both are such great contributors to society. I've been on a 'subscribing' diet lately trying to be extremely picky about subs but this 3-hour marathon of value-bombs definitely got me on board.

[@alexanderavanth]

Alex just feels unreal. He’s wealthy, humble, compassionate, philosophical, attentive, generous and funny. He’s like a swole Buddha that decided to become a CEO and wear crocs. You just can’t make this up.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:00 ⏳ Focus on living life for yourself, as in three generations, everyone who knew you will be forgotten. 01:37 🤔 Learn to think from first principles and not be bound by societal norms or others' expectations. 04:15 🔥 Avoid following the crowd; most people's decisions lead to unfulfilling lives. 06:23 ⏳ The more you act on your decisions, the quicker you can make significant changes in your life. 08:17 🗣️ Unmade decisions are often the source of stress; confronting difficult conversations can lead to growth. 12:02 🚗 Making decisions earlier can save you time and prevent you from staying in a state of complacency. 16:51 💡 Unmade decisions feel heavy due to fear, but naming the fear and the person involved can empower you to take action. 18:43 ⏳ Anxiety cost: Unmade decisions waste valuable time and attention, emphasizing the importance of taking action promptly. 19:25 🕐 Procrastination and anxiety can be reduced by taking immediate action on tasks or decisions. 20:33 ⏳ Speed of decision-making can significantly impact how quickly you achieve your goals and overcome anxiety. 22:54 💡 Fear of failure, insecurity, and the fear of being "not enough" often drive high achievers to succeed. 25:03 🤷‍♂️ Cynicism can be a defense mechanism to avoid facing the pain of failure and the judgment of others. 26:16 🃏 Everyone has advantages and disadvantages; it's essential to play the hand you've been dealt. 29:44 🤝 Understanding others' experiences and hardships can lead to forgiveness and empathy. 30:54 🙏 Regrets are an inevitable part of life, but choosing which regrets you can live with can guide decision-making. 35:10 🧀 In decision-making, consider running away from what you fear (regret) rather than chasing what you desire. 38:38 🌟 Building confidence is not about shouting affirmations but about proving your worth through undeniable evidence. 39:09 📘 Measure your success by your efforts and the work you put in, not just the outcomes. 40:19 🗣️ Prioritize and dedicate substantial effort to tasks to ensure you've done everything in your control to succeed. 42:25 🌟 The more you commit to a single pursuit, the more you realize your capabilities and unlock mastery. 44:43 💪 Turn pro in your chosen endeavor, applying dedication and a pro athlete's mindset to achieve excellence. 45:11 💡 The difference between nervousness and excitement is your level of preparation. 49:13 💡 Your ability to say "no" becomes crucial as you become more successful; focus on the one thing that matters most. 52:31 🚀 As you gain more success, your opportunities increase, making it even more important to prioritize and say "no" to most. 56:17 🔥 Use insufficiency, resentment, or difficult experiences as potent fuel to drive your actions and success. 57:25 🪓 Twisting the knife: Be specific about your pain and understand what truly hurts you, as it's often what contains elements of truth that bother you. 58:38 🌟 Success is the only revenge: Focus on your goals and achievements to overshadow doubters and naysayers, rather than trying to prove them wrong individually. 59:22 💪 Use challenges as opportunities: Transform negative experiences into strengths. Overcoming adversity can lead to unique skills and resilience. 01:01:54 🚀 Embrace the journey: Find joy in the pursuit of your goals rather than solely focusing on achieving them. The process of striving can be more fulfilling than reaching the destination. 01:05:08 🎖️ Be grateful for your challenges: Reflect on past difficulties as opportunities for growth and character development, as they contribute to who you are today. 01:06:23 🛣️ Define your own game: Don't just try to win at someone else's game; determine what game you want to play and set your own rules and goals. 01:09:40 🤔 Happiness in the pursuit: Realize that happiness often comes from actively working toward your goals, not just achieving them. Enjoy the journey as much as the destination. 01:15:53 🌄 Create your character through challenges: Imagine the person you want to become and embrace the hardships and struggles that will shape your character along the way. 01:16:50 🙏 Gratitude for the mundane: Cultivate gratitude by imagining how your future self would cherish the simple joys and health you currently have. 01:17:32 🌟 Finding gratitude and presence in everyday moments is a powerful way to combat feeling stuck in routines. 01:18:00 🧘 Presence and gratitude can be intertwined, with small daily moments opening you up to awareness. 01:18:56 🥋 Conor McGregor emphasized the importance of being present in his fights, allowing him to excel. 01:19:48 🌼 Mindfulness can be as simple as savoring a sip of coffee or a view out of the window, stringing together these moments. 01:21:12 🌄 Moments where you perceive your peripheral vision can naturally lead you to the present. 01:26:29 🚀 Success often brings haters because you remind them of the dreams they gave up on. 01:29:43 🌟 Haters and criticism can be indicators that you're on the right path to success. 01:35:21 💪 Every worthwhile goal has a cost, and it's the difficulty that makes it worth pursuing. 01:36:48 🙅 Self-love can involve rejecting the notion of self-acceptance and striving for the person you want to become. 01:37:28 🧠 Self-love means believing in yourself more than anyone else does and holding yourself to a higher standard. 01:39:09 🤔 Reject the idea of self-acceptance as settling for who you are; instead, accept your current state but strive for improvement. 01:40:09 💪 Embrace the discrepancy between your current self and the person you want to be, and focus on taking steps to bridge that gap. 01:45:41 🧭 Feeling lost or going through hard times often indicates you're on the right path to success, not the wrong one. 01:50:47 🧘‍♂️ To overcome negative emotions like sadness or impatience, operationalize them by identifying the root causes and working on solutions. 01:55:26 📝 A mediocre plan consistently followed is more effective than a perfect plan never executed; the key is sticking to the plan. 01:56:22 🌟 Alex emphasizes the importance of consistency and setting a new, higher bar for oneself after achieving success. 01:56:47 🧬 Alex acknowledges that everyone faces unique challenges, but he encourages individuals to focus on what they want to achieve rather than seeking sympathy for their difficulties. 01:57:30 🤔 Alex challenges the "must be nice" mindset, suggesting that success isn't about circumstances but about one's determination and actions. 01:59:10 💪 Alex emphasizes the importance of persevering even when you don't feel good about it and how hard work pays off in the long run. 02:00:55 🌱 Alex highlights that the work itself changes and molds you, and it's not just about the outcomes. 02:03:27 🏆 Alex shares his realization that work is never wasted because you become the output of the work, not just the outcome. 02:05:36 🤯 Alex suggests that judging yourself based on your actions, not just your thoughts, can lead to self-improvement. 02:06:58 🕰️ Alex discusses the value of patience and how it can be developed through consistent action, even when you don't feel patient. 02:10:36 🙌 Alex and the host emphasize the importance of sharing honest, unromanticized stories of personal growth and challenges to help others navigate their journeys. 02:15:43 🚀 Having a "must be easy" mindset is a sign of a victim mindset; it removes agency and power from your life. 02:17:07 ⏳ Life is like a protracted training montage; the lack of certainty makes it worthwhile. 02:18:48 🤔 Pursuing a goal with uncertainty is what makes it meaningful; guaranteed success would be unfulfilling. 02:19:04 💪 To be more successful than most, be willing to do what most people aren't willing to do. 02:20:26 🔄 Consistency is a powerful virtue; being consistent is often the key to success. 02:23:46 🕰️ The moment you begin working is when your productivity increases; starting is the perfect condition. 02:28:57 💪 There are no shortcuts; hard work is the path to success. 02:30:13 🌟 Don't compromise on your standards; even if others praise your work, you'll know if you could have done better. 02:33:22 📅 Aim for your average Tuesday to reflect how you want most of your life to be, focusing on meaningful work, exercise, and spending time with loved ones. 02:35:12 🚫 Don't waste time justifying your actions to people who have a life you don't want. Live your life the way you want. 02:36:14 🙅‍♂️ Don't let others' inability to make a logical argument affect you. Accept their rejection and move on. 02:39:42 🎭 "Punking the game" means refusing to play by others' rules in a game you didn't agree to, which can be both destructive and constructive. 02:41:20 💰 The cynics may seem right in the short term, but the optimists often achieve long-term success. Embrace the tension between paranoia in the present and faith in the future. 02:45:06🚀 Don't be swayed by people who consistently underestimate your potential. They're often wrong, except for the one time it truly matters. 02:49:30 📚 Learning is about changing behavior in response to new conditions. Intelligence is the rate of learning, not an inherent attribute. 02:51:50 📖 Check out Alex Hormozi's books "100 Million Dollar Offers" and "100 Million Dollar Leads" for practical business insights.

[@VentureBackCollections]

I listed to this podcast almost every day for a month while working through the plans and gusto to further live and change my life paradigm almost a year ago when you first posted it, starting my own company reselling products … it’s been tough, but absolutely worth it! I listened to it again this afternoon while getting errands done and it helped me walk in the door, and literally do the next one after putting my keys down; frankly face the “fear” I’ve been holding onto for 7 years and launch my first piece of creative work. Thank you for taking all that time to pull this list together and for having Alex on to discuss. You’ve helped change the trajectory of my next 50 years - your time was well spent. ❤

The heaviest things are unmade decisions. This was very true for me both in my divorce and leaving a religion.

[@nawakaida7499]

I feel so extremely lucky to have recognized that it didn’t matter what other people thought about me at such a young age. I was about 10 or 11 years old when I started to live how i wanted to live. My school, hobbies, friends, how I dressed, what I said, or my relationship with family was all based on what I wanted snd what I liked and never based on other peoples opinion. I didn’t need outside validation or approval. I didn’t need everyone to like me either. This outlook has allowed me to truly live the life that I wanted to be who I truly was.. I consider myself successful and at peace snd it had nothing to do with money or illusions. ..something that sadly most people will never experience. The side effect of this mentality however is that I’m not close with family and I don’t have many friends because people do not like it when you don’t conform to their expectations and make decisions based on what you want and not what they want you to want for them. No regrets. I’ve lived a great life.

[@MBA-KM]

Excellent conversation. Chris just nails these interviews. Loved the section about choosing your regrets. I am pretty pumped after watching this whole thing. I just started my business on 11th August. The motivator for me was that in July I was regretting not starting it 3 years ago and I realised I would rather try and fail than regret not starting it again 3 years from now.

[@mvrius2924]

How's your progress so far man?

[@markdevries5616]

About having kids… I just have to tie two parts of this video together, it helped my own understanding and maybe it’ll help others as well. You said “choose your regrets” and I like that. It’s one of the “parts that stood out to me the most” for me. You also said “don’t let kids hold you back” and I like that as well. Here’s the thing though… for anyone that has kids that aren’t in full time school yet… we will always choose to regret missing out on a business (or any other) opportunity rather than missing out on our kids in those few precious years. “You gave up on your dreams because of me?” Damn right I did because you became my new dream. At least a big pause on them anyway.

I absolutely love the pause that Alex takes before he replies to gather his thoughts. I’ve never seen that before but it is so brilliant. Most people want to seem like they have the answers and start talking immediately filled with “uh’s and um’s”. Such a master at getting his point across. 👏🏽

[@sandroschneider2123]

Listening to Hormozi is like becoming enlightened without putting in multiple lives of hard karma work.

[@lau-guerreiro]

He is so far from enlightened! He can't even accept himself - that's kindergarten level!

[@sandroschneider2123]

@@lau-guerreiro If you were as far at him at Kindergarten, then much respect for you.

[@DamianSzajnowski]

Karmic work supposedly transfers through incarnations... so maybe you're prepared with some work already.

[@zaydevans2077]

@@lau-guerreirowhat gives you the impression he can’t accept himself? I wouldn’t say he’s enlightened and he wouldn’t either he’s just learning and sharing as he does

[@lau-guerreiro]

@@zaydevans2077 he had a whole section on how he thought self-acceptance was wrong. Did you listen to it? He's still stuck in having to be better. He can't just be as he is.

There will never be a better podcast than this. This conversation is just incredible valuable and you can't lose after you relentlessly study their words. STUDY THEM AND YOU WILL SUCCEED

[@glenndeason]

Chris telling Alex "shut up" at 2:26:53 is my absolute favorite. How to be a great Podcaster? Tell your guest to shut up! 😂😂❤ love it!

[@smilloww2095]

Never heard of this guy before. Listened to it on spotify and got immense inspiration that I dont often get from podcasts. This guy is great.

[@miguelmontano4740]

I love this one. I feel this interview/conversation will be a good one to last for decades and decades improving the lives of humans again and again. Love you guys and thanks for sharing your wisdom

[@daveSoupy]

Time for the full sermon

[@PetDKK]

Those 3 hours has literally been game changing for me. I have never thought like this. Thank you so much!

[@danielburton4406]

I don’t think any podcast has connected with me more. Thank you both for mentioning how sad and lonely it can be on the way to the top. Not enough influencers mention just how hard the hardships of self improvement are, and you two both did an amazing job putting my feelings into words. Keep up the good work!

[@goodsongclub]

I love Chris's passion at 1:51:00 about us never being more blessed than we are now. I could feel him boiling up over this concept. His conviction is so huge.

[@jeedax]

Chris, thanks to your line of questioning that is relatable and empathetic. I felt deeply that you respected my time. Hope this brings a smile to your face. You deserve more love and subscribers! ❤

2:24:11 - “The harder you try, the easier it gets. And so, if you can just learn to love what ‘trying hard’ feels like, then all of a sudden, it becomes unreasonable that you can’t win.”

[@loveliberationpod]

21:42 You just changed my life, truly, i’ve been on a self development journey for more than 6 years now. Ironing out stuff. These discussions about decision-making finally made me understand the real law of attraction. How to move through this world most efficiently. Every decision is an opportunity to not let fear win. The quicker you make decisions out of love that need to be made. The quicker you reach your full potential.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jonathan_mcguinness]

@ChrisWillx & @Hormozi this is the best podcast that I have ever watched. So many 'breathe easy' moments from the clarity of your examples, scenarios and ideas. And I am so much older than both of you guys! The high paced banter between both of you is exciting like a high paced tennis match or maybe ping pong! Thank you for having this conversation and sharing it. It is now on my 'Reference Playlist' as I'll come back to it! A few exercise are coming for me, writing a list of pains and how to use them! Take care and lots of success to both of you!

[@_johnnyamerica]

I was having a really bad day. People got in my head about my goals and staying in my path and this really fired me up. So thank you

[@JakeWoken]

I think you two should do one of these every 3 months or so. I think we all could go on for days too watching you and Alex. So great and still feels like a lot was left behind due to time. Alex, Chris, you're two of a unique kind and it shows. Thanks for this.

[@ApoorvParijat]

[@NOVELTY098]

This is my favorite podcast for wisdom. I love your personality and the chemistry between you and Alex is fantastic. Much peace and love, brother.

[@JaydonRose]

The 'CRAZY' amount of wisdom nuggets in this video is insane! I've heard many hours of Alex Hormozi, and certainly like alot of what I've heard,... but Chris with his interview style, made this one of THE BEST INTERVIEW OF ALL TIME! 😊❤. I'M going to be listening to this episode many times over! I LOVE YOU GUYS! THANK YOU for pouring into me! God bless you for your contributions to the world. And remember to invest in your relationship with God, or this life will have meant NOTHING! 🙏

Always a classic when these two talk. Only 10 mins in and pure gems are being dropped

As a young man I must say this is the kind of content our generation needs. Thank you Chris and Alex, this has been insanely helpful. Makes me feel I’m not alone in my journey to success. God bless you all.

How old are you ?

[@popstarbootycamp4304]

When Alex says no one will remember him 6 months after he’s gone. I WILL. I love this guy, and I’ll miss his wisdom and I’ll miss all the learnings I won’t be getting anymore. There’s only one Alex Hormozi. ❤❤

[@publiclearner]

Never has a podcast improved my life so quickly. Alex inspired me to have a difficult conversation with my girlfriend and now things are much better between us. It's also inspiring to think about making decisions sooner rather than later.

[@IAlessandro]

I think the concept of having to choose one's regrets and the fact that shame only exists in the shadows are two truths that really got me thinking! Incredible episode!

[@harryruns1]

I've been listening to this podcast for while but this has to be the most takeaways I've taken from a single episode. Hormozi is the man, love this 💪

[@rueroos]

This video is just what I needed .This resonates with everything I'm experiencing as a new mom, new business owner, and new content creator. This conversation has been incredibly inspiring in many ways. Thank you! It's just the extra push I needed☺.

This video should be mandatory viewing for all boys aged 13 n older. Every year for the rest of their lives

[@kurtyaz]

This pod helped give me the courage to leave my businesses and partnerships that weren't performing, to decide to do just 1 thing and I am so grateful I made that decision.

[@kurtyaz]

Still making progress and have no re-watched this twice because there's so much savage wisdom in this.

[@markroden9968]

The same people judging you for working too hard or being unbalanced are the same ones looking for a handout when you become successful. And they're also the same ones that say you became successful because you had it easy or had an unfair advantage when really you outworked and out sacrificed and out gambled everyone else.

[@ciobalina7445]

This is actually irrelevant. It means nothing. Carring too much about others' opinion is a bad idea, unless it's about something to do with laws or common sense things. It feels to me that it's still unhealthy even when that carring means spending tons of energy trying to prove why it doesn't matters. I think the point his is that there is no point to having such people (like those you described) in your life consistently. They're clearly not your friends. Giving you advice or pointing out something is not healthy is not a bad thing. It shows genuine interest if this comes from actual interest. But asking for handouts or devaluing your work once you become succesful are not actions that are signs of this. I've made some mistakes in my life and trusted people I shouldn't have. I paid for that so now I'm trying to pay more attention to who I trust.

[@tilk4248]

This whole podcast was absolutely filled with wisdom and it has such a comforting effect... of not feeling so alone

[@syedintekhabmahdirizvi439]

[@520cuban]

I'm in my 50' and I find the conversation between these two young men so refreshing. The transparent honesty, and the drive for success they conveyed was a really good conversation.

[@bluetears2]

“Fame doesn’t change you, it change everyone around you”, but I’ve always felt the sentiment that fame and power reveals you was more true, perhaps fame also reveals those around you. It’s less that people change, but that as your circumstances change, people reveal more of who they are.

[@kondipress]

This was an excellent conversation between friends who have really great insight and information. It is nice to see Alex in more of a realistic relaxed state of being. His conversation and Dave Ramsey with him have been my favorites recently. Chris I am new to your channel and I look forward to listening to more your content.

[@MoMan9]

This podcast is like wisdom trove! Its like a seminar that could cost $10,000 to attend. Also, Chris's ability to ask deep questions and share his insights about what he is asking from the guest is just unparalleled. I yet have to hear someone who conducts interview like him. Due to this I have stopped listening to ALL the podcasts and listen to his podcast every 2-3 weeks because its so dense! Keep up the good work! You were the best club promoter in the UK and now you are on your way to become the best most deep and insightful podcaster in the world! For me you are already that!

[@Cope_M]

Chris when I listen to Modern Wisdom I feel less alone - I am literally mainlining Alex's teachings at the moment as I really want to grow and I am glad I have found you as a result - really powerful man. And the piece about being in your room from 6-16 in deep learnings - really resonate. Major appreciation.

[@MakingImagery]

This was absolutely awesome!! I like the fact it dropped after his presentation this Sunday because I stayed up to watch it (2am here in Sydney, Australia) and he obviously crushed it - and watching back at his prep and discussing the mindset after the fact is pretty special! You talked of being present, and honestly I felt so present just watching this, so incredibly engaged, so thank you for making it happen. I did take a pause to go and search for Modern Wisdom's 1st episode, and can confirm progress has been made brother haha killin it! Love Alex and his open teaching and appreciate your ability to ask sound questions, as well as adding your own reflections to the guests input. There was SO much to take on from this episode. Fuckin epic! Cheers!!
