I discovered Naval through the 2018 interview with Nassim Nicholas Taleb. I ended up being so impressed by him that I wanted to learn more about him. Glad I did! For those of us who aspire to be better versions of ourselves and expand our awareness, there's a lot of extremely valuable content here.
Naval is my new yogi.. Our brains running constant simulations of possible outcomes may cause stress but it seems like a super power. Like Deep Blue defeating the chess champion.
Life is mostly about applying the basics and only doing the advanced stuff in the things you truly love and understand the basics inside-out 1:06:37 Contrarian way to success 01:15:05
Interesting. I’m enjoying so far. I feel he closes a few loops I’ve been thinking about all my life. More of a framework of thinking that I can use and apply in many different situations.
Just wow!!! Sooo many gems it's like hitting a mine🥰💪🏾 Priorities: above my happiness #1:my health physical, mental , spiritual, then my families health, then families well being... then all else. You make time for your priorities.
Excellent interview! Found it via Rogan. Lots of gem-like bits of wisdom in this talk and in the one with Rogan. Surprisingly fresh and familiar at the same time. Nothing really new here but a superb compendiumof essential ideas from Krisnamurti and many others who he references. The valuable parts are how he illustrates examples of integrating wisdom with his life. His examples make relating and being reminded of things very easy.
Our childhood's match on many levels. Right now my bedroom is littered with books. Cialdini is a genius, Man's Search for Meaning, is a definte re-read (it's got some💎💎💎 ). I also tend to go back to Age of Spiritual Machines & Social Engineering/Hadnagy...Currently (on my bed) Pattern Seekers/Baron-Cohen, Money, Whence It Came, Where It Went/Galbraith, The Brain Warrior's Way + The Brain in Love (of course by Amen), and When the Past Is Present: Healing the Emotional Wounds That Sabotage Our Relationships/David Richo. Awesome interview, very wise man 💯WISDOM, my friends, is everything 💯
Here's the story of the kids in the remote village who taught themselves molecular biology www.zdnet.com/article/how-semi-literate-children-in-a-remote-indian-village-taught-themselves-molecular-biology/
If you were to teach these ideas to kids, how would you do it? Would such a school use the Montessori method or something else? Obviously, you want kids to have experiences, not learn theory. Learning to code should replace learning to spell (try coding without paying attention to spelling).
@@rishabhsharma6763 Is it? Acting and golfing skill are still evident even if those men have done something wrong. But a man's claims of spiritual enlightenment are undercut somewhat by leaving a dysfunctional and dangerous situation in his wake. I'm not saying I'd write him off completely, but it raises questions.
Alex Moen i wish you understood hindi and heard his discourses before he moved to the States, Osho was a modern day Buddha.. read his books if you are interested, I’m sure you’ll change your mind
Very intelligent guy. Interesting perspectives. Some I find quite worthwhile to consider and possibly integrate, some not so much. I'd want him to unpack the aversion to hierarchical relating. I think there are different levels of relating even between the same two people. He would have to define "peer". In which sense is a 1 yr old a peer. Yes, as a human being. No, as an experienced mind. The distinction seems obvious, but he didn't make one. Regardless, he's an exciting new intellectual interest in my book.
He kind of lost me when he told us that the key to happiness is not desiring anything. So when he started companies and invested etc, did he not desire things? easy not to desire anything when you have almost everything. sorry but I don't think it's a good idea for poor people to not desire anything.
You need to hunt him down to find deeper meaning 3hr pod won't suffice. He has a blog where he has said it's all about playing games (colleges, job) and the. Winning it so you can be free of it.
1:11 Muslims dont bow down to the Prophet Muhammad PBUH they bow down to Allah. For a learned man he should know that. Also Science leads one to believe in a greater power..
This guy hasn't done a lot of thinking for himself. Has retained smart ideas and knows the script around sounding like he's sorted out life's complexities but sounds like he's holding on tight to an ego.
Oh WOW, I'd much rather listen to his wisdom than your rhetoric. Expanding your mind by reading versus saying nothing positive in keeping your mind narrow. Bet you're a real joy ?
@@Irisglow Yikes, you're quick to compare two hours of audio to a brief comment. You should read what I wrote again and consider the criticism for yourself; especially the first part.
I tend to agree to some degree. I mean i feel like he is a lot like myself, only far more well read and more mature in many ways and has more experience.I do think he is creative sometime but 85% of his content is just sharing smart idea. I also agree that he is oversimplifying life's complexities, but much of the wisdom he shares is still useful to a lot of people, including myself.
Charlie Sultano Yeah, I think I agree with almost everything he said. His mind is in the right place and he’s smart in that regard. However, he’s more like a walking archive of popular ideas than a profound thinker.
@@samuelyates9165 Absolutely. What is expected, that people not mention the part of their beliefs that they have personally come up with? Those would be weird, incomplete and annoying answers.
