With characteristic insight, Simon reveals his deep aversion to bullies and his commitment to fairness—traits that have shaped his approach to business and human connection. Through personal anecdotes, he explores the challenge many face: the disconnect between our gut instincts and our ability to articulate what we feel. This fascinating conversation illuminates how our limbic brain controls our feelings and behavior, yet struggles with language, explaining why we often resort to metaphors or quotes to express our deepest emotions.Simon offers a profound perspective on America's current trajectory, describing it as "a ship without a rudder" that has been adrift since the fall of the Berlin Wall. Drawing on economic principles, he presents a counterintuitive truth: just as monopolies stifle growth in business, America needs worthy competitors on the global stage to truly excel. His insights challenge listeners to reconsider conflict resolution, values-based decision making, and the importance of understanding what we stand for—especially in times of uncertainty. Simon's practical wisdom provides actionable guidance for reconnecting with our inner compass when external benchmarks seem to disappear.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
