Episode notes

The speakers delve into the tension between success and feeling satisfied with oneself, emphasizing that most worthwhile endeavors are infinite games.

The conversation raises the question of what problem individuals are solving for and what they are optimizing their lives for.

Alex Hormozi is a founder, investor and an author.

Alex's Twitter has been one of my favourite sources of great insights over the last year. Today we get to go through some of my favourite lessons from him about life, human behaviour, psychology, business and resilience. This is really good.
