Dr. Yusef Smith — Productivity Workflow, Reducing Suffering, & Meditation Retreat Lessons | MTFP Ep.126

This was an excellent episode with Yusef on many of my favorite subjects. I've been following Yusef on Twitter more closely recently and I knew I had to get him on my show after seeing tons of overlap in our interests. He has his PhD and is a legit doctor, on top of being a fitness and business coach, and content creator. He's been running Propane Fitness with his good friend Jonny since 2008, where they coach people on both fitness and business. In this episode, we cover: -How Propane Fitness got started -Why Yusef decided to get a medical degree -How he balanced becoming a doctor, being a coach, and being a competitor -His best advice on productivity workflow -Why me and Yusef are the same person -Why meditation isn't for everyone -The lessons he learned from his 10-day meditation retreat -Why he decided to do the meditation retreat -What his current meditation regimen looks like -Getting out of your mind and into your body -Where are you located, exactly? -How he "verifies" his spiritual practice with evidence -Dr. Jordan Peterson's biblical lectures -Balancing acceptance and striving -Reducing pressure on yourself -And much more!
