E234 Stop the war, but become the warrior.

In this short episode, CJ discusses the difference between studying war and living the warrior's life.  He makes an argument that society has bred a culture of cutting corners to gain certificates, degrees and trophies instead of doing the hard work and learning necessary to gain true skills. The question is raised as to why these certificates, degrees, and trophies are important if they don't always add value to one's life. He concludes that it is the hard work and dedication that builds principles of a human being that can survive the internal wars of life.   Key Topics Why does society focus on trophies and rewards The importance of taking action and becoming a warrior instead of just studying war Encouraging you to take initiative by reaching out to other people, attending events, and attacking goals with passion Connect with CJ Finley:   CJ's Instagram CJ's YouTube cjfinley.com   ThriveOnLife Podcast Instagram thriveonlife.com
