Episodes

  1. The Heroic Cannot Be the Common, and our Grandfather | Ep 098

    Emerson's "Heroism" and the line the whole episode keeps returning to: the heroic cannot be the common, nor the common the heroic. Two days after losing our grandfather and one tournament later, we talk about seeing only the gold in people, why the mind only sees what it is prepared to…

  2. James Allen's As a Man Thinketh: Crisis Gives Way to Clarity | Ep 097

    The first episode of the YOU.PRJCT+ Show. Why the name changed (coherence, significance, purpose), James Allen on why crisis gives way to clarity as long as you don't retreat, the Classics Collection and how to read a book that was written to you, and why "it's not that deep" is the wrong answer....

  3. Turning 27: Every Minute Has to Count | Ep 096

    Do you feel older? No. Way sharper. A birthday episode, recorded at the top of a Monday. Why "do you feel older" carries a presupposition worth refusing, the two weeks the scroll was replaced by the book, the Emerson passage from Self-Reliance read in full, and the realization that the academy is...

  4. Emerson on Losing Friends as You Get Better | Ep 095

    A scientist once stayed in the dark long enough that his eye began to record ultraviolet, light nobody knew a human could see. Gerald Heard uses that as his picture of prayer, and this episode uses it as the picture of everything else worth training: the run at 4:30 that nobody claps for, the...

  5. Emerson's Circles: Why Progress Is Never a Straight Line | Ep 094

    When you are fatigued, those thoughts are not you. They are hijacking you. A player asked a good question after Tuesday conditioning: what am I supposed to think about when I am running? That question opens into Emerson's Circles, read out loud, and the argument that being does not expand in a...

  6. There Are No Boring Days, Only Untrained Observers | Ep 093

    Perception can be coached. There are no boring days, only untrained observers — boredom is a failure of perception, not a fact of the day. We're back and going practical: identity and the finite game. Why finite players veil their own freedom and take up their role with total seriousness — "you...

  7. Finite and Infinite Games: Why "I Have To" Kills the Thing You Love | Ep 092

    You cannot play a game you are forced to play. The moment training, work, or faith becomes a "must," the life goes out of it. We read James Carse's Finite and Infinite Games through sport, discipline, and the year ahead. The through-line: choose it freely, play for love, and failure disappears....

  8. Jim Rohn's Four Questions | Ep 091

    Things do not happen. They're forced into reality. Progress is not guaranteed. You can drive across this country and see the towns where it stopped. Nothing in the world improves on its own schedule, and everything you are standing on was forced into existence by somebody who decided to. We get...

  9. Monopoly of One | Ep 090

    A definite person determines the one best thing to do, and does it. Harrison brought Peter Thiel's Zero to One back off the shelf, Henry brought a summer of notes from the Academy floor, and they landed in the same place from opposite directions: most of what gets called well-roundedness is an...

  10. Discipline Says Yes, Focus Says No | Ep 089

    Talent dies from a lack of courage, not a lack of vision. This week: why discipline is saying yes when you don't want to and focus is saying no when you don't want to, an 1800s essay on timidity, the parable of the talents, and a 4AM bike ride with a flashlight taped to the handlebars. Chapters:...

  11. Life at the Crossroads

    Every week is decided at a handful of crossroads. Recorded on a Sunday that felt like a still pool: Chesterton's reference points, Emerson's Self-Reliance, Gettysburg courage, and the question we ask players after every mistake. Get clear on the crossroads before Monday finds them for you. In…

  12. To Be a Great Man, Is That Not Enough?

    Discipline is not the cage. It is the stripes of the tiger. We're back. June ran at max capacity, 120 players a day on the field, and this episode is everything it taught us about discipline, leadership, and refusing to let the standard slip. In this episode: 00:00 We're back. June at max…
