Episode notes

Welt: I think it's incredibly true that anywhere in the world that you travel, there you are still same version of yourself. When i felt like the most growth that i had was sitting on my ass for hours and hours and hours a day for just ten days, or reading a good book. For me, success is really about two things, its impact and its connection. This is what people think about when they'r really old and are on their death bed. Did i do something meaningful in my life for the world? Our job is to help progress the human race.

In Episode #83, we deconstruct Brett Goldstein's peak performance playbook—from his favorite book to the tiny habit that's had the biggest impact on his life. Brett Goldstein is the Co-Founder of Launch House. We cover DAOs, NFTs, and failing at happiness.

“You are not your mind, and your mind can be programmed. One of the biggest life upgrades you can ever have is that understanding.” – Brett Goldstein

ABOUT BRETT GOLDSTEIN

Brett Goldstein is co-founder of Launch House, which is building a new launchpad for founders and engineers, both around the world, and in the metaverse. Launch House started as a crazy experiment where the founders rented a mansion in Tulum, Mexico, for one month and invited a bunch of founders and engineers to come and stay with them. What they found was surprising. By focusing on human connection and having everyone live in the same house together, everyone in the program wasn't just making incredible progress on what they were building. They were making incredible friends.

Launch House quickly seized on that opportunity. And today, they run launch houses for founders and hack houses for engineers in Los Angeles, New York, and the metaverse. And they're just getting started. Early Launch House alumni have already gone on to raise venture capital funding from top-tier firms like Sequoia, a16z, and First Round.
