  • HARSH TRUTH About Wealth, Power & Happiness: Life Lessons Everybody Learns Too Late | Tai Lopez PT 1

    12/26/2023

    In this two part episode I’m diving deep into the HARSH TRUTH about wealth, power, and happiness with the one and only Tai Lopez. It's time to challenge the biggest mistake most people make, allowing others to convince them that power is a dirty word. No, my friends, power equals success. If you're ready to become a strong and capable person worthy of respect, then you have to be ready to pursue it aggressively. Don't be afraid to dominate and discover your true power. This conversation will redefine what true power really means, beyond sex and money. We'll explore the double-edged sword of power and uncover what people often get wrong about it and delve into the nature of money, understanding that it doesn't define your self-worth. Instead, we'll focus on what you truly want to feel and how you feel about yourself. “Men have to come to grips with their will to power because the will to power that drives you can also be your demon.” -Tai Lopez Prepare to witness the power of making things happen in the world as Tai and I map out the intricate connections between power, wealth, and seduction. It's time to seek mastery, status, and power like never before. Prepare to have your mind blown and your perspective shifted.

    Embrace The Void

    Welcome friends, to a podcast for a darker timeline. Maybe the darkest of all timelines. Definitely not one of the good timelines. Maybe it’s always been a dark timeline, maybe the Hadron collider screwed us over. Science may never know. What we do know is that we live in the void. The void, a place where a chittering mass of void crabs can infest a person suit and win the presidency. The void, a place where we're just clever enough to know that climate change is happening, but not quite clever enough to do anything about it. The void seems terrible and cruel, but it loves you, in its own ironic way.

Episode Description

Today's book-of-the-day is "Folks, This Ain't Normal - A Farmer’s Advice for Happier Hens, Healthier People, and a Better World" by Joel Salatin, if you want to order this book from me click here: http://bit.ly/12BAhE0
 
When I was still a teenager my mentor Joel Salatin used to tell me, "Tai, nature always laughs last."
 
For you to live the good life you're going to have to understand nature and biology.
 
I don't care if you live in a high-rise in Manhattan or one of the hundred million dollar condos I saw in London last month. The laws of nature still apply as much to you today as they did 10,000 years ago.
 
If you don't know who Joel is (besides the fact that he was my first mentor), he's a famous international speaker, who’s done two Ted talks, and has written 10 books. 
 
But most importantly, he's known for pioneering grass-fed beef and pastured eggs. His Virginia Polyface Farms has had everyone (from celebrities, presidents, even prime ministers) coming to learn from his wisdom.
 
I was actually just visiting Joel and his family for Thanksgiving last week and I recorded some special videos for you. 
 
Enable your images to see me interview Joel Salatin
 
The point of his book, “Folks,This Ain’t Normal” is simple. You and I in the modern world are so far removed from biological reality that 80% of the problems we face have nothing to do with flaws in us, per se, but more to do with flaws in the system.
 
It's like the Harvard professor Daniel Lieberman talks about in “The Story of the Human Body.” The quickest way to change your physical health (weight, waistline, etc.) is not to rely on willpower, but to change the system and environment in which you find yourself. 
 
So what is Joel saying is wrong with our system?
 
 
 
Why Unconventional Works
 
 
 
1. We grow our food with pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, antibiotics, and growth hormones:
 
"Our animals don't do drugs. Instead, we move them almost daily in a tightly choreographed ballet from pasture spot to pasture spot."
 
Joel figured out that you don't have to be locked into the conventional ways to grow food by using chemicals. For example, if you mimic natural systems with your beef cows by moving them around in rotated pastures not only do you get healthier cows but the fertility of the soil increases. That's a true Pareto efficiency.
 
 
2. We’ve become detached from our food and the land that grows our food:
 
"A farmer friend of mine told me recently about a busload of middle school children who came to his farm for a tour. The first two boys off the bus asked, 'Where is the salsa tree?' They thought they could go pick salsa, like apples and peaches. Oh my. What do they put on SAT tests to measure this? Does anybody care? How little can a person know about food and still make educated decisions about it? Is this knowledge going to change before they enter the voting booth? Now that's a scary thought."
 
The average child hardly even realizes eggs don't come from the grocery store. Or that Velveeta cheese doesn't come from a can.
 
The only true path to food security is to know where your food comes from - have a relationship with the farmer who grows your food.
