Podcasts about loving what you do

Today we are bringing back one of our all-time favorite episodes with James Altucher. Dave sits down with James, an entrepreneur, bestselling author, and master experimenter, to uncover why the 10,000-hour rule might just be holding you back. Instead of grinding your way to expertise, James reveals his 10,000 Experiment Rule—a game-changing approach to mastering any skill faster than you thought possible. From comedy stages to boardrooms, James has redefined success through relentless experimentation and bold pivots. In this electrifying conversation, he exposes the toxic allure of “failure porn” and why glorifying failure might be sabotaging your growth. You'll learn why skipping the line isn't just possible—it's essential for thriving in a world obsessed with rigid rules. This episode dives deep into the power of curiosity, the art of experimentation, and the strategies James uses to crush the myth of conventional wisdom. Whether you're stuck in a career rut, looking to start something new, or just want to optimize your life, James delivers unfiltered insights to help you rewrite the rules. What You'll Learn: • Why the 10,000-hour rule is outdated—and what actually works • How “failure porn” is dragging you down (and how to escape it) • The 10,000 Experiment Rule that accelerates skill mastery • Bold strategies to break through limits and skip the line in any industry • Why curiosity is the ultimate superpower for growth and success • Practical steps to monetize your passion and build a life you love Resources: 2025 Biohacking Conference – https://biohackingconference.com/2025 James Altucher's Website – https://www.jamesaltucher.com The James Altucher Show Podcast – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-james-altucher-show/id794030859 Danger Coffee – https://dangercoffee.com Dave Asprey's Website – https://daveasprey.com Dave Asprey's Book: Smarter Not Harder – https://daveasprey.com/books Dave Asprey's Linktree – https://linktr.ee/daveasprey Upgrade Collective: Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live – https://www.ourupgradecollective.com Own an Upgrade Labs – https://ownanupgradelabs.com Upgrade Labs – https://upgradelabs.com 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement – https://40yearsofzen.com Sponsors -Calroy | Head to https://calroy.com/dave for an exclusive discount. -Viome | Go to https://viome.com/dave to save $110 on the Full Body Intelligence Test.

His fascinating life is about OVERCOMING THE ODDS to impact millions of people with his music, entrepreneurial ventures, and as an activist focusing on economic empowerment through business ownership and an emphasis on family and education.His story has so many chapters filled with POSITIVE LESSONS, and he wastes no time dropping great advice for young people about LOVING WHAT YOU DO as a path to becoming an entrepreneur.Here's another incredible quotable insight for you…“The great thing about Snoop Dogg is that he was willing to LISTEN and BE A SPONGE…and look at him now.”We also get into……RELATIONSHIP CAPITAL and Master P's advice on how to treat people…finding ongoing JOY in your WORK and PURPOSE…MAINTAINING YOUR EFFORT LEVEL after you find some degree of SUCCESS…his RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD and how that impacts everything he does…the essential need to SURROUND YOURSELF with the RIGHT PEOPLE.  Pay close to this part…it's absolute gold.…the generational curse of poverty and how to break it…the eye-opening revelation of why TALENT is only 10% OF SUCCESS in the music industryThere is so much WISDOM you need to hear from Master P this week.I'll leave you with two more gems…“Don't be afraid to start from humble beginnings…”“If you want to be successful, just show up…”GOLD…PURE GOLD.

Today’s guest is Mark Scheinberg, founder and president of Goodwin University.Mark is the first university founder to be on the show and a dear friend who I’ve known for over 20 years. No matter where we meet, one of the hallmarks of our friendship is that within two minutes, we're laughing at something. I couldn't be happier to have him here.As Peter Drucker put it, culture is “the way we do things around here.”At Goodwin University, their mission-centered culture doesn’t come from buzzwords reserved for wall signs and the employee handbook, it’s something that their people embody.

That’s what I believe his legacy is about.In this episode, Mark and I talk about the enormous support Goodwin University offers its students, how he went from a poor childhood to becoming a millionaire by 30, his focus on helping his students better their lives, why he gave away 90% of his assets, and so much more!Key Topics:Why being a newer organization allowed Goodwin University to flourish (2:58)How traditional universities often fail to meet non-traditional students’ needs (4:16)Goodwin University’s groundbreaking student support initiatives (5:19)Social initiatives that give students a greater chance of success (8:05)The business case for offering extended support to students (9:23)How music became the key to a world of opportunities for Mark (11:54)The massive disconnect Mark experienced with college recruiters (13:28)How college admissions processes can end up excluding good candidates (16:02)Mark’s first post-college entrepreneurial venture (16:54)Mark’s path from real estate investments to buying a school at 24 (17:49)How a drive to help students find better jobs led Mark to shift his school into a college (20:45)Why Mark was driven to make his college non-profit (24:19)Mark’s decision to give away 90% of his assets (26:27)How Goodwin University has thrived since becoming a non-profit entity (28:17)The mission-based culture at Goodwin University (29:42)The surprising response Mark received from the non-profit world (33:15)Living a life of service, honesty, and love (35:04)Why it’s always worth it to do the right things (36:57)The advice Mark would give to his 23-year-old self (40:06)And much more!Mentioned in this Episode:Goodwin UniversityJim Collins’ Book | Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don'tSheer Clarity | Loving People and Loving What You Do with Keith AlperTHANKS FOR LISTENING!Be sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.  And feel free to drop us a line at kevin@sheerclarity.com. Follow Sheer Clarity on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook! [AS1]I can’t link to Kevin’s site – it appears to be hacked or something.

Being thrown back into the community and meeting new artists has invigorated his artwork. Currently he is creating abstract pieces and doing digital meditation heads. He has participated in several group and solo shows in galleries, restaurants and coffee shops.   “I deal with color on an intuitive level. I pick colors in the moment with a digital pallet of infinite color choices. My tools lend to an “in the moment”  flow.  With digital art I will have a color appear in my head first and then I add it to the design. I often combine unusual colors that create a distinct vibration and energy to the design.  The same is true for my mixed media work.  My studio has paint tubes scattered all over my work space. The piece I'm working on will in a way  “call”  to the color that needs to be added next.” https://dougbale.bigcartel.com/ https://society6.com/dougbale You can follow Doug's art on Instagram: @dougbale     Paul Krauss MA LPC is the Clinical Director of Health for Life Grand Rapids, home of The Trauma-Informed Counseling Center of Grand Rapids.

This week's show is called "Loving What You Do?." Listen to Opal as she encourages you to believe that all is not lost despite any feelings to the contrary. What were you created to do?

So many of us are running on auto-pilot with fleeting moments dedicated to doing what we love... but what we forget, is that doing the things we love to do is what gives our life meaning. Whenever we are spending time perfecting our passion we are flowing the powerful energy of the Universe. The more you do what you love, the more the Universe will back you up and provide opportunities for you to do it.
