DN128 with Alec Torelli- How to Level Up in Life and Business? Learn from THE Poker Master We have an interesting guest today, but he’ll definitely be sharing something we all want to learn about. That is about the importance of mindset training, and how to level up in life and in business. Alec Torelli is a world-renowned poker player and is definitely one of the best. In the rest years, he has been playing poker and teaching others how to win in it. He has built a profitable online coaching business, teaching people how to be good at playing poker, but most importantly, how to be a good poker player. Alex fell in love with poker at a young age. But what made him successful is not just his love for the game, but his drive to learn more and his willingness to actually get better every single day. He measures himself based on how he did yesterday and get a little bit better today. His love and dedication is the winning formula that made him who he is today. But his ride is not as smooth as he wanted it to be, there are definitely ups and downs and setbacks he needed to overcome, but that just made him stronger and authentic. Today, he shares his journey and helps others who wanted to blaze their own paths like how he did his. Are you a poker player? Do you see it a good side hustle, playing something you love plus earning several thousand a month? Well, this podcast is definitely for you. But even if you are not into poker, the chunks of knowledge shared by Alec today are truly useful for anybody wanting to start any business, especially online. From training your mindset to finding your tribe, facing setbacks, how to refocus and change strategies, to loving and sharing your journeys to somebody else. This podcast will equip you to finally taking that most difficult step- the first one. Then let the momentum do its course and reach the success you’ve been wanting! Here’s What You Missed What is the winning formula in winning pokerHow having a tribe helpsHow to recover from setbacksWhat is compounded successWhy you should share your story, and how to do it?Motivation happens through action Knowledge Nuggets [3:12] Love for the game and really wanting to learn- helped with winning in poker. One, putting in the time and work to get better, and also just trying to measure yourself, based on how you were yesterday and get a little bit better. [6:53] It's really important, to have a group of people that are like-minded, that are working towards similar things. Because it does give you confidence to know that you're not alone. Not only will it give you confidence and help you like progress, but also just give you the tactics and knowledge and resources to improve. [11:34] In facing setbacks: Reduce the damage by managing your money and your emotions better. It's really when you're losing and you have the setbacks that one learns how bad they really want it. [12:24] It's a good test because when you have that adversity, you learn at what you really value and if you're willing to push through it, it means it's something that's worth pursuing. If not, it probably means you didn't want it bad enough in the first place. [14:48] I need to focus on changing my strategy because my current strategy isn't working and that's hard to do because there are some ego involved. It's not a failure, but it's a setback. The second part was being in the right mindset mentally to accept the long run. Just accepting that it's going to take a while, but that's part of the journey. [17:18] It's really, when you get to the top that you need to work even harder because there's more and more people chasing you and it's even more competitive. [18:52] "It takes 10 years to be an overnight success." Your success sort of compounds over time. [19:54] If you're very destination-oriented, then you know, you're probably pursuing something that you shouldn't be. If you're journey oriented in the sense that like you get in the state of flow while you're doing the activity that you're doing to get to your destination and you love what you're doing, it doesn't really feel like work. The goal is really to be in a flow state during the journey. [22:38] Find what you can do better than everyone else, then find a way to spend as much of your time doing that as possible, and then outsourcing or hiring or partnering or surrounding yourself with people that are better at all the other things. [32:48] You always have to be growing and evolving. And so it's fun to see where it's going now and where it'll take me in the future. [38:02] Sharing your journey also really helped you understand what you're good at and it helps you find your voice because it forces you to be concise and provide value to other people. [38:53] People think that they have to be great at something to start sharing. It's more about being authentic than being an expert. [42:30] Motivation, happens through action. Take the first action and it gives you more confidence and that domino effect compounded over time is what leads to success.

Today we talk about decision-making, resilience, mental training and more with our guest, Chris Sparks. Chris is a professional poker player who was ranked among the Top 20 of the world's best online players. It is this experience making an exponential number of decisions and performing at an elite level that has given Chris a number of insights and practices that he has further developed. He helps people apply these to both their work and their personal growth.If you listen to a couple of our previous episodes with Annie Duke and Alec Torelli you will know that poker mimics life because it is a game that involves decision-making under uncertainty and incomplete information. This makes Chris' expertise and experience highly transferable. He is the founder and CEO of The Forcing Function, a company that is dedicated to empowering the next generation of entrepreneurship. In this episode, Chris shares a wealth of very useful techniques to improve performance and deal with uncertainty and that are incredibly useful, particularly now. We cover: Decision-making techniques; What to do when things go wrong; Why we are all “mental athletes” and the importance of mental training; The importance (and limitations) of story; What Chris learned at Davos Much more!
