I went on to become a pro athlete, have 9 kids, start 17 businesses and become addicted to performance and production. Till I burnt out. Multiple times. That started a quest to not just pursue p ...

Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all.

What If Everything You Knew About Success Was Backward?
Our lives are shaped by contradictions:
- The harder we chase happiness, the further it seems.
- The more freedom we gain, the more constrained we feel.
- You need money to be happy, but then chasing money makes you miserable.
- The more we learn, the more we realize we know absolutely nothing
These are some of life’s paradoxes, and they are as profound as they are puzzling.
In this episode, we explore 16 of these paradoxes, breaking down their underlying logic and what they reveal about the human condition.
We’ll unpack why they exist, how they shape your life without you even noticing, and how to embrace the absurdity instead of letting it drive you insane.
Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and practical insights, we’ll show how embracing these paradoxes can lead to a richer, more intentional life.
It’s an invitation to think deeply, challenge assumptions, and find clarity in life’s complexities.
