Podcasts about own your life optimized practices

What if you could spend just one day learning what it took someone else *decades* to learn?    That's the power of picking up a book: you get the most important lessons and advice, condensed down into a couple of hundred pages. Spend just one afternoon reading a great personal development book, and you could reap the benefits for decades to come.    It's that concept that inspired Nicholas Hutchison to start his business, BookThinkers.      Nicholas is our latest guest and is the Founder of BookThinkers, a company dedicated to spreading the power of personal development books. Nicholas is focused on developing insightful content and interviewing the world's top non-fiction authors for his podcast, BookThinkers: Life-Changing Books. As a digital nomad, Nicholas runs his business from a different country every month and gives all the credit for this lifestyle to some of the early books he has read.   Tune into the full episode for more on Nick's top book recommendations (of course), how new authors can market their books even if they don't have a huge platform already, why great leaders should read as much as possible, and more.   Here's a Glimpse of What You'll Learn:    More about Nick's business and how he got started in the book world  The connection between great leadership and reading habits Some of the statistics around supply and demand in the book industry, especially with the increase of self-publishing What gives books staying power beyond just an initial bestseller lists  How Nick helps authors market their books, even if they don't have an existing large platform What's surprised Nick the most about working in marketing and the book industry, plus what it means to “condense decades into a day”  The percentage of books that Nick reads multiple (and many) times How Nick measures success with his clients, and how some of those KPIs have changed over the past few years Why books are the business cards that entrepreneurs actually need Some of the daily habits Nick has integrated to maintain peak performance, including physical movement, biohacking, fasting, and more Why Nick actually has more energy as he's gotten older, and some of the routines that have helped him maintain that energy level The power of asking yourself “What am I optimizing for?”  How one book completely changed the narrative of long-term travel for Nick, and how travel has impacted Nick's own self-development   Resources Mentioned in This Episode:  Book Thinkers website Book Thinkers podcast Nicholas Hutchison on LinkedIn Book Thinkers on Instagram “Own the Day, Own Your Life: Optimized Practices for Waking, Working, Learning, Eating, Training, Playing, Sleeping, and Sex” by Aubrey Marcus “$100M Offers: How to Make Offers So Good People Feel Stupid Saying No” by Alex Hormozi “The Compound Effect: Jumpstart Your Income, Your Life, Your Success” by Darren Hardy “No Excuses!: The Power of Discipline” by Brian Tracy “Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!” by Robert T.

In some colorful and humorous yet insightful commentary, gangster BFF's Steve Edwards and Kevin O'Neil continue the discussion on the book "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Robert Glover. They discuss the societal shifts that happened decades ago to create a generation of men with Nice Guy Syndrome. They outline ways to get away from these self-destructive behaviors which are deceptively (and sometimes unconsciously) cloaked in "nice" behavior which becomes super-unfulfilling forms of manipulation where everyone ends up miserable. They get a little rowdy with their riffing banter and ball-busting and demonstrate through their charming camaraderie what it looks like to have a stimulating friendship with a dude. **These are adult conversations meant for adults only.

But it is important—now more than ever—to be heart-centered, open, and accepting.  In this episode, Aubrey Marcus talks about how he lives with oneness daily. He shares inspiring reflections on spirituality, relationships, and depression. He also discusses the importance of connecting with the community in this period of increasing divisiveness. Lastly, he shares about his upcoming book and his writing process. If you want to know more about how Aubrey manages his life with openness and spirituality, then tune in to this episode.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Find out how to be more connected to the world.

Episode Highlights How Aubrey Navigated Through the Pandemic Aubrey shares how, for him, last year was one of the best years of his life. The hardest challenge for Aubrey is that he felt like he wasn’t doing enough for the collective. One of the biggest lessons Aubrey learned was to have faith in the community. Aubrey emphasizes how the pandemic opened a lot of moments for contemplating the divisions in our society. Through acknowledging past transgressions and forgiveness, we can mend the divisions in our society. Connecting with the Community Through Media Platforms There’s a lot of personal and monetary interest involved in media content. Aubrey observes that big media platforms have advertisers who influence them. People often get lost in the conspiracies fed to them by the media. Social media wants to keep people on the platforms for as long as possible by publishing outrageous and divisive content. It’s important to recognize that they don’t always have our best interests at heart. Speaking from a Place of Oneness Aubrey shares that when you abide by your ego, there’s a strong urge to put people down. You tend to compare yourself to other people to see who’s better. Your ego does this with morality as well. The ego likes to isolate you in this citadel of righteousness. Aubrey argues that all human life comes from the same source and intrinsic worth. It’s important to push this message continually; otherwise, we fall into the trap of the ego. On Spiritual Materialism Aubrey had a vision quest when he was 18. He went to the mountains, had psilocybin tea, and felt his soul. Aubrey continued to go to spiritual places to recognize and feel the oneness. Oneness is meaningless until you feel it yourself Audrey’s New Book Audrey likens writing a book to a ceremony. Audrey admits that his book was supposed to come out this year. However, he shares that he had to work on mastering his mind first. Aubrey now feels like he’s equipped to write a better book. Aubrey is now in a place where he feels like he can stand behind everything that he writes. Shifting to a New Perception on Relationships He explains how a polyamorous relationship is a different spiritual practice. He emphasizes the importance of making boundaries clear in a polyamorous relationship. For Aubrey, the sacred union means putting the relationship above the individual. He recognizes that his relationship with his wife now is a different lesson, a different practice. He is very excited about exploring a different type of union between two people. Roots of Dissatisfaction in Relationships Aubrey discusses that physical attraction in relationships has an expiration date. This is why romantic and passionate relationships wane over the years. You need to build in other practices to grow and deepen the connection. These practices can be sexual, spiritual, or both. If you’re content in your relationship, you’re at peace. But if you’re complacent, you feel a current of frustration. Listen to the full episode to learn more about the difference between contentment and complacency in a relationship. How Aubrey Deals with Depression Your body influences the mind, so you first need to look at the state of your body. Next, examine if you have any stuck emotions. Perhaps there’s some energy stored up that you need to release. And this may come in the form of grief. Modifying the stories you tell yourself helps you control your narrative of yourself. Being self-aware enables you to guide yourself to do the right thing. To know more about the tools and practices that Audrey uses to move through a depressive state. How Aubrey Feels Radically Loved Being radically loved is true every single moment of every day. Judge yourself less. Forgive yourself completely. Surrender to knowing that you are radically loved. 5 Powerful Quotes from This Episode [8:17] “So, I think it's it's essential that we start to come back to some semblance of oneness. You know, with an acknowledgment but also a forgiveness of the past  and past transgressions, and an allowance for us to just come together in our humanness.” [17:28] “There's no value proposition to say that this human is better than this human, all humans all life is intrinsically worth the same. And we're all part of the same source.” [19: 58]  “You can find that we are all one somewhere. But until you feel it, it's meaningless. You have to know it... You could hear all the descriptions about an avocado, but until you have guacamole, you have no idea… And for me, that's been my path is to really feel it.” [27:44] “It's not that you lose your independence or your identity, but you just know that when the relationship is strong, it will nourish both of you.” [37:25] “If you're just complacent, there's going to be this kind of current of frustration, you're going to be like, I just kind of want to run somewhere, I just don't know where. And, that's the feeling that I think can be really hard.” About Aubrey Aubrey Marcus is the founder and CEO of Onnit.

Truth You Can Act On: Feedback: The ability to give useful feedback is a skill all leaders need to learn and master. Sometimes those critical conversations aren't the easiest to have, but with practice, you'll be able to have them more comfortably. It's not always fun, but it's what ultimately leads to growth. Personal Board of Directors: Mentoring is not about one relationship; it's multifaceted. It's all based on the many different leadership skills you're looking to develop. The key is having multiple mentors who serve as your board of directors for all areas you desire to grow in. Leader Participation: If we want to see engagement being driven throughout the organization by mentoring, we as leaders need to be mentors as well as mentees. We need to be sharing our experiences. If we're looking for our employees to become more savvy in personal and professional development then we need to share with them the resources we used. It's the same thing with mentoring. We need to share our participation, share our key takeaways, and walk the walk. Measuring Impact Through Intentionality: It's essential to focus on why you're mentoring in the first place. For example, if you want to improve diversity, you must first understand where your baseline is, where your numbers are, and where you want to go. Understanding this allows you to monitor specific trends, measure the impact your mentorship program is having on diversity, and make any necessary adjustments.
