Gamify Your Life 248. Gamify Your Fear | Edward Ashley Latimore
Gamify your fear, simplify your life, and improve your health! We can’t do anything about our past, but we do have the power to design a better future for ourselves. Ed Latimore was raised by a single mother in a poverty-stricken, violence-filled neighborhood, but he didn’t let this dictate the course of his life. Ed is proof that through hard work, determination, good decision making (and a little bit of luck), we are all capable of achieving greatness.
Meet Ed Latimore:
Ed Latimore is a former professional heavyweight boxer, a competitive chess player, and a bestselling author. Ed’s writing focuses on self-development, realizing your potential, and sobriety - all of which he approaches from his personal experience of overcoming poverty and addiction.
Episode Highlights:
Holding onto resentment won’t improve your life. If you were raised in a broken home, don’t blame anyone for that because you can’t change it. Instead, focus on what you can change: your attitude, your environment, the people you spend your time with, and the way you treat others. [14:42]
Age is just a number! If you look after your body and your mind, you can extend your mental and physical “prime” by many, many years. [33:13]
The more organized you are, the more you can get done in less time. Stop wasting time because you don’t have the organizational systems in place! [39:28]
Before making decisions, consider the worst possible outcome and whether or not you are willing to suffer through it if it happens. [40:09]
Simplify your life as much as possible. Don’t be afraid to cut out the things (and the people) that are costing you your happiness. [40:09]
