Identity is all around you. Whether you’re consuming social media, reading a book, streaming a new series online, or having a conversation with a friend or family member, you are receiving signals from the world that shape your self-identity. From the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed, your self-identity is switched on and telling you the parameters of which you need to live in. What if we can escape this box we’ve built around us? What does true freedom from excuses look like? On this episode of Impact Theory, world-renowned speaker, author, and venture capitalist Vusi Thembakwayo joins Tom Bilyeu to discuss such matters and more as they explore the controversial ideas of self-identity, freedom of the mind, and why you have no excuse to begin taking action today. They discuss how self-identity can limit our potential, why being free doesn’t mean living in freedom, why you have to have a willingness to fail, how to be your own savior, and the inspiration of Nelson Mandela.

I've been saying the same for so many years. As a South African I have consistently said the reason why we can't progress faster is because we stay focused on the emotion. Our leaders stick to identity politics and create tribal division rather than the unity required to move forward as a nation.

As a Cameroonian, I see everything Vusi says as clearly as the morning sun. I have thesame ambitions of changing the mindset of Africans by action and not by words. I read ferociously, Listened to hundreds of TEDX talks and motivational videos. I'm currently re-writing the second draft of my first book and as soon as I'm done, I'm starting the second book for which I already have an outline. Africa needs radical thinkers like Vusi and I hope that someday I get to meet him and join forces to emancipate my fellow brothers and sisters from this limited mindset. Thank you Tom for putting him on the spotlight. Your videos inspire me everyday.

👍Agree💯 It’s the mindset that has to change first. Very difficult. It is so difficult, that not even God can change it. Just think of this: The children of Israel, in the Bible, were 40 years in the desert. All because of their mindset. This man may be young, but full of wisdom more than most older people nowadays. I’m so glad to hear him speak! God bless him. And God bless you in your future endeavors.

@OTrainerPro
@OTrainerPro 11 месяцев назад
I disagree... it's much better to believe in yourself FIRST and have those who believe in you afterwards so that you may accurately know what it truly means to be "believed in" ... I say that because many people believe in the wrong people, such as narcissists --people without "true" self-belief and who tend to misconstrue your belief for being needy, manipulative, or over-emotional. And therefore ruin the relationship entirely due to self-sabotage .. Discernment and self-love is KEY! ...

@lawrencelaw8311
@lawrencelaw8311 3 года назад
@@dmonk952 question is, how does intelligence come about? People become intelligent by equipping themselves with knowledge, and this knowledge they only acquire it through learning. No one is born a genius. Its people who develop passion for things and therefore open their minds to learning more with the goal of mastering that become geniuses. They dont just learn to become knowledgeable. They learn to even better their learning, and thats why i can show you something completely new to you and it takes you a week to figure out but you find there is someone just as non knowledgeable about it as you who can figure it out within a space of a few hours. So learning to become a better learner, i think thats how geniuses become. So what you see as "intelligent people", is actually people who have learnt to learn better. Nobody perfectly figures it out the 1st time. its always about learning and i think thats what Vusi means.

That was incredible! I had never heard of Vusi Thembekwayo before but he's got a new follower in me. He captured me within less than 3 minutes into the video by saying "The test is not whether or not you know the reasons for not succeeding, the test is whether or not you're willing to do whatever it takes to get to that next level." WOW... And then so many other powerful pieces of insight shared throughout the conversation! Great video. Thoroughly enjoyed this topic. I also have to note he's got a beautiful smile! lol :) Thank you Tom for bringing us such valuable content and being a GREAT interviewer!! 🙏

what I mean is do you want the emotion or the progress? He explained what he meant by giving an example when someone is working out in Gym , the brain says don’t do it no more you have done enough but that’s just your brain trying to protect you as usual but that’s where the real progress starts when you’re start feeling the pain. So either you choose to carry on work out or quit you can’t have them both.👌👌👌

This is my favorite interview of 2021. Absolutely amazing. I'm going through so many crazy things right now and have been making too many excuses. I have hard lessons to learn, but I have been going about it wrong. Always focusing on the output and getting overwhelmed, but if I focus on the input and on mastery, everything gets easier. I got to this point through diligently pursuing betterment of myself and my craft, not through wishing.

There are so many aha moments for me and, I, too, had all these thoughts rattling in my head, but didn’t quite know how to say or describe them. You and Vusi are brilliant together. you opened up a new direction for me to acknowledge my potential and the process i CAN take to get there. I’m profoundly grateful to you and for you, and what you do to bring awareness to one of the most debilitating hindrances to progress, THE mindset. my great takeaways: 1. so what?!! 2. momentum 3. skillset 4. mindset 5. my identity doesn’t define my progress 6. so what?!

Things like meditation, exercise, and my business marketing activities. And I had to ask myself- was this it? And the truth is that I can stand to put more effort and focus into what I’m doing. What I’ve been doing is rushing through routines looking for the result. But I’m missing the beauty of where I am today. Thank you for that conversation.
