And then on the other side of the spectrum, I'm very aware of the longevity research and the anti-aging stuff.

Even people that are cutting themselves and physically damaging themselves, they're looking for some high or some goodness of that. It's almost platonic where he says, every action we take is aimed at the good. And you can think of horrible things, but the individual actor thinks what they're doing is good to them or for them in some way, otherwise they would not do it. So we can't do anything about that. But what we can do is change the actual incentive structures we inhabit and make the stealing game less profitable, thereby shifting human action towards making rather than taking.

Third thing that I think is very important to succeed in motorsports is to have that mechanical inclination of how a car works, to understand suspension, to understand the aerodynamics. That's the mechanical side of it to be successful. And in all honesty, the fourth element is what I would call timing and luck. But luck is defined in my theory by preparation meets opportunity.

So, you know, when you cut your hand or something, your skin, and then there's a little hole and then it gets right around the hole, like that's inflammation. That's your body sending a bunch of stuff to help repair the cut. So it's a state of alert. It's a state of alert that your body goes into and it's usually very beneficial. The problem arises when inflammation is chronic, so constant, and it's just not going anywhere. That's chronic inflammation.

This whole area of psycho neuro immunology, how our thoughts could affect our body, you know, stress levels and cortisol and adrenaline, not only does it shrink the brain, but you're right, it shuts off big portions of your critical thinking and, and you talked about it yesterday also on the live. There are parts of your brain that determine how to feel about something, right? So you lose your autonomy because then you just react to things. And again, you, you gave away your power.

So I think that's really important, is knowing not only what you're good at and what you like, but what you don't like. And so look for models, get feedback, and then really think about what's gone right, what's gone wrong. Almost do a self-assessment. Pretend you are a company, in a sense. And do a real analysis of where you are, what's worked, what's not worked, what you've liked, what you haven't liked. Do you have people write this down? What excites you? I think you absolutely have to write it down, right? Because when you write it down, you internalize it more. Do you just sort of flow-style journal, or do you go, okay, here are the things that I know, like known personality traits or known likes, known dislikes. Do you have things that you break it out like that? Yeah. So I write down values.

They can't, their metabolism, it's like inherited disorders of metabolism. Would it have the same result as insulin resistance, where you just can't produce enough to get it in? It kind of is like insulin resistance, like insulin's not performing what it wants to actually do. And do you know, does the body respond to that by producing more insulin? Thinking like, oh, I just need to keep shoving more in to get this out of the bloodstream. To see if they can, so insulin levels will rise. And so basically, if you have too low amounts of body fat, you don't have enough adiponectin, all right? What happens is that your insulin's not functioning properly, your body will make more insulin to see if it's, maybe the problem's insulin, let's make some more insulin. So that's if you have too low body fat. Similarly, if you've got too much body fat, all right?

His whole family died, but he lived. And I wrote an equation which led to a book I wrote called Emotional Equations. And the equation was despair equals suffering minus meaning. And so, and the way that equation works is that when you, if suffering is sort of a constant in life, if you're a Buddhist, it's the first noble truth of Buddhism, which is suffering is ever present. So if suffering is sort of a constant, you can always find it. Despair and meaning are inversely proportional. So long story short is I was able to use Frankl as a means of understanding how to create meaning in my life.

There was nothing better than intense conversations about how to make things better when both partners in the conversation are fully committed to that. It's such fun to produce incremental improvement, sometimes more than incremental, you know, collaboratively. There's nothing better than that. I love doing my lecture tour because it was that on a large scale. I talked to Dave Rubin about that this week because, of course, he was long on the tour. And it was such it was so perfect to be talking to people about making things better and to have everyone, at least in that moment, fully on board with the idea. You couldn't you couldn't ask for anything better than that was great. And to have the support I've had from people, it just stuns me. You know, I think it's actually traumatic to have that much support. That's interesting. Why traumatic? It's not easy to know what to do with. You know, the cheers of a million people.

And, of course, in the process of trying to win the war, he freed the slaves through the Emancipation Proclamation, subsequently to the 13th Amendment.

I try to surround myself more with age. You spend so much time focusing on being good at one thing in the business, that takes a lot of time, and then the friends you develop through what you do. If it's through sports, sports, something that requires a strong body, is it taking time off? Then when you don't do that, the friends that you love and share this experience and love, it's a rare experience and there is a brotherhood, to an extent, overhyped in other ways. But when you're not skating with them, you don't see each other. And so finding friends of similar character and heart, that's important to me. I strive for that.", "9RXdAdjy0_o_39": "Now, the reason that I know that this actually makes a difference is if on the weekend I'm having a cheap meal, I can actually drink water. I don't have to stop drinking water because the carbohydrate intake will cause me to retain water so I'm not going to have that problem even if I eat close to bedtime and keep drinking throughout the day. It's actually wonderful. I love it. I can pound water right before I go to bed. Something about water at night tastes so good. I don't have to worry about that if I've had a high carbohydrate meal. So, what I found though is that even by eating let's say three hours before I go to bed, I can still tell the difference in my sleep. But three hours is sort of that maximum where it's not truly disruptive. So no matter what, whether you have trouble with peeing at night or not, you want to make sure that starting three hours before you go to bed, you've finished all of your food intake. That's really important. Also, three hours before I go to bed, I will avoid blue light.", "Yzvg0pWez2M_7": "They do all this crazy stuff and they lose their returns.

So I think we need to drill into some of why that works. So a dead investor is investing. In that scenario, I'm going to guess that they're in index funds, like you said. And what is an index fund? It's just a collection. It's a collection of stocks. It is diversified, usually. There are index funds that are just in healthcare or tech. But when I talk about index funds, I'm talking about like S&P 500 index funds. It's well diversified. And because it's an index, it's just matching the market. That means there's not somebody in some expensive suit who's charging you 1%. It's just a computer. Your fees will be something like 0.1%, which is very inexpensive over your life.

What I would do if I were you is I would go through the series of Arthur Aronson, 34 questions every couple should answer. Ah. So this is a really interesting study that this researcher wanted to find out how we get to love. And he found that there are three different tiers of relationships. So in the first phase of a relationship, we're just trying to figure out interests. So it's like, do you like that? I like that too. What's your hobby? And personality traits. That's the first level. That's also why I built the first level, the matrix to personality.", "JRPChBZ0Rjo_58": "So from a contrarian standpoint of like, you know, Peter Thiel's question, like what closely held beliefs do you have that most people don't agree with? That's one of them. I'm scandalized, by the way, that that one is something that people don't hold. I think that people get themselves in trouble because they believe the opposite of the following quote. There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. And they think that, no, there are things that are objectively good and bad, and I'm simply recognizing the truth. That is certainly what I struggle with the most in my own life, that I was simply, when I had a negative view of myself or anything else, that I was simply recognizing the truth of the situation, not understanding how the belief I had about the thing was influencing my behaviors and my behaviors entirely determined my outcome. And so then I was like, well, hold on. If my behaviors are predicated on my beliefs and my outcomes are predicated on my behaviors, then my outcomes are actually linked to my beliefs.

Long lasting relationships. Why is that good? Because I think what happens with long lasting, firstly, they're more likely to create a shared meaning and purpose. Also, what happens is you end up knowing that you start to learn to reject things. If I know I'm going to stay with you forever, what will happen is I reject maybe going to clubs every night because I know who I'm going to be home with. I reject dating multiple people at the same time. I reject sleeping around because I know where I'm ending up. But why are those good things?

I mean, we just feel much better. So the correct order is vegetables first, proteins and fats second, and starches and sugars last. The sugars last thing makes sense. Dessert is always usually last. And actually, when you think about it, the vegetables first thing, culturally, like this has been happening for a long time, especially in Europe. Like in France, we have crudit\u00e9s first. In Italy, it's antipasti. In the Middle East, they often have herbs by the bunch on the table before the meal starts. And the reason this works is because of that fiber in the vegetables. So the fiber goes from your stomach to your upper intestine, and there it kind of deploys itself like a transformers onto the walls of your intestine and makes this protective mesh, this protective barrier, kind of like this gooey, gooey kind of thing.

And I'm not convinced that the evidence bears that out for either men or women, right? So as you said, women are the gatekeepers to sex. Men, on average, for the most part, are the sexual protagonists. I'm sure that before you even met Lisa, you could probably count on one hand the number of times that a girl comes up to you and chats you up. It basically never happens, right? It's men are the sexual protagonists. And one of the problems that you have in a world where sexual norms have been dissolved, we decoupled sex from having babies, right? With hormonal birth control.

So most of the people that grow up in the inner cities, they're fucked forever. And it's just they never get back on track. And you were in the prison system. You've been in and out your entire youth. But you end up on a 10-year stretch for selling drugs to an undercover cop.

And he had no concept of divinity or previous lives, and it was really destabilizing to his worldview, but he was... Why did he believe it? So a lot of this stuff, my understanding is... Because it was helping. That's very different than it being true. He didn't know that it was true at the time. You said it was destabilizing to him. Well, it was destabilizing because he didn't even have a concept of hypnotherapy going into past lives. What made him believe it? So if I encountered that, I'd be like, this person is making it up. Utterly fascinating that she believes it. I'm not calling her a liar. I'm just saying, meh. Right. So through the serial investigation, gradually started to believe the potentiality of that.

The truth is, I don't know, but I choose to believe that I have that potential. So that way I could, you know, I'll do the things necessary to be able to show up, show up that way. Is it true that is it absolutely positive that me and my and my significant other, she and I are going to be together forever? Like, I choose to believe that's the truth because I'll work towards it.

You said for years and years and years, your dad specifically was trying to, like, get you to realize the life that you were living was going to end in the crash that it ended in. Yes. How did you reject that when he was saying it? And then how did you guys heal the relationship after it all happened? Yeah, I was mad at my dad. Because he was so hard on you? Because he was so hard on me and it seemed like he was much nicer to my brothers and liked them better. And he was such an authoritarian, you know, and that just killed me.

He was pissed at me.", "Dzlg17y0IMM_44": "But yeah, I think that desire to thrust is kind of part of the sexual desire. Just the feeling you have when, let's say, when you're turned on, it's almost like nothing can stop you from completing the act. And clearly that's part of the intelligence of the human organism, is that nothing will get in your way from completing that act, because that's sort of what the species has to have to survive. And then, you know, as soon as the orgasm is over, everything is different. And that desire just like completely disappears. It's almost one of the few ways or instances in which physiology really turns on a dime and goes from this unquenchable urge to this completely different state. And all these hormones and other things are released at that time as well. But yeah, I think, you know, there's an intelligence to what we do, even if we don't understand it. And some of that is instinct. What is instinct? Is it stuff we unconsciously picked up from our parents? Is it stuff that's just, you know, in our genetics?

I feel like it's key to bring the best in somebody's background and what they're good at. I want to talk about competitiveness. I was surprised that you didn't list that as one of the key ingredients for a driver. You seem to have it in fucking spades. You raced against your own- I just assume you got to have it. Yeah, well the funny thing is I didn't have it growing up, so that was definitely something I had to develop. I had to first recognize that it had value, and then put myself at risk, because the reason I didn't like competition was that meant that I could lose.

Today's guest is one of the most fascinating rags to riches stories I have ever heard. He was born in the third ward of Houston, Texas. His father was abusive, alcoholic drug dealer who was murdered when he was just 12 years old. By the time he was a teenager, he was breaking into cars and houses and his criminal activities continued to escalate until he was sentenced to 12 years in a French prison for drug smuggling.

And let me tell you what I think is the matter with that person, because I'm an expert on the other person. People stop looking at themselves because they're completely focused on what's wrong and what's off and what's missing in the other. And the first thing you do in couples therapy is you say to the people, we're going to reconfigure the lens. The day you come in, and you start the session by talking about what you have done to improve things or what you have done to deteriorate things, we're working. That is powerful, a drop off location. Do they both show up saying like, oh, it's obviously them? Or is it often one of them is like, yo, this person is, you know, doing all of this wrong? Or is it just sort of equal combativeness?

Then we're going to build in habits that are going to help us actually become the kind of person that we want to become.

And when you're doing the things that the person you want to be would do, you are the person you want to be. It's one of those things that it's easier said than done, but it really is that simple. So we want to map all of that out. We want to make sure that we have clarity. We want to write down what our values are. We want to write down, is there somebody that is like the kind of person that you want to be, at least as you perceive them?

Now, here's the thing. We are also immaterial or even this body is immaterial? Well, here's the game you got to play in your mind. When I grew up, I was like, what do you mean? But I feel this. This feels matter. This hurts. I have these desires, these urges, this sexualness about me. What do you mean? The more we can focus on spiritual identity over material, mortal man, the less pain and suffering we have when we focus on being spiritual beings, when we focus on that image and likeness of spiritual truth with a capital T, life with a capital L, love with a capital Love.

It will become close to 100% accurate where you'll be able to detect early stage cancer. Now, the question really comes down to then what, right? Then the next thing problem is, what do we do about it? So let's assume I say you have an early sign of cancer in your mouth. Now, what do I do? The doc, somebody has to do something on it. Now, do I do, would immunotherapy work because it's advanced enough? Do we have to say, hey, find where it is and do the surgery and remove it, right?

Guess what just happened with coffee today, this and that. It's just, I enjoy it. What are the big levers that you pay attention to? Obviously the Fed raising rates, all that stuff matters or does it? It certainly seems to from my layman's position. Yeah, it does. I think it has a huge impact on the market. I think inflation, I pay attention closely but I also know that it's not exactly rooted in what a lot of people are experiencing. What do you mean by that? The inflation numbers that they have, they hand select certain things like owner's equivalent of rent is a great example where you're not getting the full rent increase is you're getting what an owner would rent out their home for instead of what rents actually are.", "xftOwi3Hstg_1": "And they said, you know what, this is unbelievable.

It's not COVID as much as it was the shutdowns and the fear. And then now the fear of people, you know, a lot of people are afraid we're going to all die within 12 years, which of course is not true in terms of the environment. But all of this fear has put people in a place where there's no compelling future. And that's one of the things that we all need.

So I just don't believe that that is, I believe that was true in your actual experience, but I would say something was not great with the program, or something else in your physiology was kind of strained to a level that your adaptability was just smolderingly small. And so we would need to figure out what that was at the time. Could have been job stress, could have been CO2 tolerance, could have been connection to your own physiology. Like, there's all kinds of areas that this could be in, and we've seen them all. Or it could have been something else going on. So we would have gone and found those things and said, we're having you do A, B, and C. Could be very simple, could be not.

And then to hear that it was really real. And then there's a, it's interesting, because it's really a two-way street, right? So you have your thought, it triggers something biological in the brain. So they did a study where they removed the amygdala on a bunch of chimpanzees, released them back into the wild, they had an inability to feel fear. And so within something like within 48 hours, they were all dead, because they wouldn't avoid a predator, they wouldn't avoid limbs that were too small. And so you, when, if you can disrupt that communication, right, because if you think something negatively, you are going to get a physiological response.

I was one of those pesky tourists. She actually had high blood pressure and sort of like maybe early type 2 diabetes, like her sugars were high. So every time... Did you get any sense of what she was eating? I mean, she's a very simple diet, not a lot of food, you know, not overeating. She was very slender.

He did a very great job of jotting down his thoughts in an introspective manner about his troops, and his country, and what he wanted to be as a leader, and I try to do that with myself. At heart, I'm part Lucius Fox, part stoic philosophy. One thing I loved that I heard you talk about was how Marcus Aurelius, even though parts of his army wanted to assassinate him, and they were coming for him, he didn't respond emotionally. He didn't freak out. There was an acceptance of, okay, this is human nature. This is the game that we're playing. Is that a non-emotional mindset that you try to use as well? Yeah, yeah.

The amazing thing is that they are actually at a peak of fitness when they're actually training, and they're overloading their bodies. And to develop that shape, they're very strong, they're metabolically stable. They don't actually have problems with glucose regulation. What does metabolically stable mean? It means that they are able to process their food without having huge insulin spikes. It means that they have normal levels of energy. Their inflammation levels are not through the roof, which by the way, is a matter of training, sleep, discipline, food. Their diet is very specific as well. But the point is that if a sumo wrestler isn't tragically ill for the period of their career, we do need to rethink just because you're big doesn't mean that you're sick.", "PtifGrHy60g_30": "And when I was first looking at you and researching you for the show, it was like that that puts him in this very unique category, unlike because I've since the economy has taken the hit that it's taken.

So literally, while I was reading your book, which I always do as an audio format, I was doing air squats and sit-ups and stuff, because just hearing you talk about the importance of exercise, it really is the thing that I have always done out of obligation and never out of joy. So I always thought, again, literally until reading your book, that I was way better off controlling diet. And you get the classic phrase, you can't outrun a bad diet. Can you? Like, are you saying that you can?", "hi7FOwnbYro_42": "It's really, really fascinating because he makes it so tactical. Reading the books and seeing that he has scripts and seeing that there's actual language, questions to ask yourself, interactions to have with other people, it's really phenomenal. It's clearly somebody that is using data, is researching this stuff, is putting things forward not just as sort of hypothesis but is really saying, we're doing the research and here's what the data is showing and letting that guide where he goes and the way that he approaches problems. Often it's very counterintuitive but when you read it, it just makes sense. Because he's growing as his audience grows, you really get a overarching toolkit that's going to allow you to go in any direction that you want. I will say as somebody who's actually slightly out of his demographic, I still found it all insanely useful. I don't think that by any means it speaks to anything more than really the title of his book, which is Back to Human, which is something that we can all tap into and all relate. I think it's incredibly powerful, man. I will aggressively put a stamp of approval." }, "relevant_docs": { "c0608059-0c9b-416d-962d-59bb0618c69f": [ "pHQ16ZZcpQc_24" ], "06c47892-eed6-4224-9a66-61cdf22cf3e4": [ "zm0QVutAkYg_1" ],
