It's difficult for people these days to find contentment. Being content has become a treat we rarely experience. My mother in law was the poster person for contentment. She had her house, which she built, her cigarettes, her lemonade, coffee and television. That 's all she needed as far as the material world is concerned. She was the opposite side of the spectrum.

Very authentic man, I love how he's calling himself out on behaviour that's not cool. At 1:02:00 - > it's not an emotional problem, it's a problem of self-image, what he says in the beginning of the interview wit Tom Bilyeu, it's what you believe yourself to be and that person runs the show. Neville Goddard calls this a State. The State creates....

[@michaeljoelraps]

54:59 lol I think he was talking about the Lewis Howes podcast where he asked Mark, "do you think we can end all suffering!?" and Mark just said "No" and laughed lol

[@TheWilliamHoganExperience]

The letdown after achievement is related to dopamine and how it mediates motivation. Achieving a big goal = you stop striving for that goal. Andrew Huberman at Stanford did an in depth podcast about this topic. All achievements come with a letdown. The bigger the achievement, the bigger the letdown. The key according to Huberman is to realize that the process of pursuing a goal IS the reward. It's where motivation meets effort. All animals are designed to strive for survival and reproduction. Stop striving, and you literally die. Dissatisfaction is the key to survival in that sense.

[@vincentpaulalimbuyuguen7551]

I often thought of picking up his book. Now i will. You've done it again Rich...your guests are always interesting and i've gotten my eyes opened to so many new individuals. This thing you do is the thing you guys were talking about in the interview...keeping mental and spiritual tasks at hand. Videos like yours are what I look forward to the way i used to look forward to Must See TV on Thursdays back in the 90s for Friends, Seinfeld, and ER haha. Keep on keepin on man !

[@valeriekosick9144]

Loved this interview!

[@jmcneill1961]

Rich's background as a WFPB vegan makes him an expert in understanding the dark side of marketing. He knows that Big Food (meat, dairy and processed plants) only cares about the bottom line financial result. He knew exactly where Mark was going with his book and writing. That made this interview fascinating. Mark would do well to understand more about Roll's history and modify his own diet to avoid health issues in the future.

[@lisar.2549]

Oh, is it the Big Food system the only one that cares about the bottom line?

[@davidplyler8173]

Nothing special about vegan. The secret is not eating crap foods. Vegan to carnivore and everything in between can be healthy. Stay away from junk food snacks, sugar drinks, cigarettes, alcohol, stay active and socialize with good people.

[@jmcneill1961]

@@davidplyler8173 I agree. Vegans can eat plenty of junk food and be unhealthy. Rich is a whole food plant-based advocate who happens to be vegan. Modest amounts of meat/ fish in a diet are not necessarily unhealthy.

That’s like the trucker convoy years ago in Canada, people were so fed up of all the strict Covid rules up there, and they really resonated with the truckers and their reasons for the convoy & fucking Trudeau wrote it off as a fringe minority. Meanwhile, the whole country practically was up in arms. Yay Canada! KUDOS to you Rich for your interesting content. Peace.

[@hunter_69_69]

Mark Manson is great. He seems to send the same message as David Goggins, but with less emotion/rhetoric/drama and more objectively/logically.

[@olgakolarik9081]

Will Smith probably doesn't like social media any more. People used to look up to him as someone with emotional intelligence only to find out his ego is so fragile that he can't take a well meaning joke. It's crazy to think how many people he disillusioned.

[@josephbrown9685]

Will is not alone in that way. A lot of Hollywood celebrities have been “outed,” so to speak by their participation in social media. Many people used to be more enamored with celebrities when they only saw them on movies and tv, but now they’ve witnessed how many famous people are shallow individuals with fragile egos who exhibit pathetic behavior.

[@CLombardi11]

If you're going to be responsible for everything that goes wrong in your life, then you should also take responsibility for everything that goes right in your life. No matter what the consequences. Would have liked to see Manson take credit for selling 8 million copies, since that's how the chapter came across to me.

[@paulfitness5157]

Seems Ironic considering what happened at Oscars

[@acebilbo]

Haven't heard "grok" in a long time.

[@sagegolf]

Rich don’t withhold your keen and wise discernment to protect the fragility of a guests ego. It interferes with the authenticity and flow of a REAL exchange.

[@naturalmystique3830]

Interesting, PT. I didn't see that at all. Unlike Tom Bilyeu, whom I totally love, by the way. Rich always makes his guests feel totally relaxed, and comfortable enough to reveal their innermost thoughts whilst challenging them enough to push them gently out of their comfort zone, without compromising their dignity. Many guests have realisations as they speak, which is great. I think he was very open.

[@ubself]

Maybe this is a slow build, but after a 1/2 hour I need more than "Will Smith is cool."

This was a superficially conversational interview. But I found it worth taking some notes and sound bites.
