This is how I know you're going to win” Our guest today, Jeff Nemeth, sees the world in a different way than the masses. He started actively ignoring the corporate news over a decade ago, has never binged a show, and believes much more in the power of Main Street rather than Wall Street. He believes that the mainstream is a bad place to be or think, conventional wisdom is overrated and tradition is simply peer pressure from dead people. He is a passionate advocate for small businesses and entrepreneurs and regularly loses followers and friends for his opinions. He was one of the first full-time personal trainers in the Detroit area in the early 2000s and spent the better parts of the next two decades as an owner and operator of gyms, studios, and personal training businesses. He carries a strong belief in himself and in the potential of others, along with the regular acknowledgment of his own failures and the inevitable humanity of himself and others. His outlook has been strongly influenced by a wide variety of sources from the Toltecs to the Stoics to Alder to Camus to Bukowski. He strives to hold strong opinions loosely and constantly challenges the way he orientates and observes the world.Jeff believes in the power of the written and spoken word, original ideas, and the strength of social media and technology to create connections with like-minded people all over the world. He has coached and consulted with people on several continents and is known to turn on his camera and shoot a “one take” live video describing a lesson he's learned or an experience he wants to share In this podcast Jeff & Ivonne talk about: Failure is a way to inform your life.The Power of life lessons.Helping others avoid the mistakes one has made.Why every day is DAY ZERO.Elevating Consciousness.

Since the priest could not answer he rode to the library at 12 and found himself reading the Bhagavad-gītā, the Quran, and finally found the Buddha's teachings.Later in life, he practiced Theravada Buddhism, but as time went by he started noticing that he was very into Tibetan Buddhism. That's when life brought him to Karma Kagyu where he found teachings from Karmapa and Sharmapa.He was not sure being a monk was his path, but after praying to Milarepa he found Garchen Rinpoche who taught him the way of Mahamudra.And today he's here to share with us his perspective on suffering.If you want to learn more about Ngakpa, follow him on social media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ngakpakonchokdorjetsondon/Podcast produced by Brilliant Futures Productions.Sponsored by Delaflor Teachings Int.
