How to Choose Your Social Circle
Get Honey for FREE at joinhoney.com/tai to save time and money with your online shopping!“It’s ok to be a little eccentric, but know where it becomes a problem” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)As you go through life, you come to the realization that many people have serious psychological problems. Whatever metric or system you use to measure psychological issues, you will find that a very large number of the people that you run across exhibit those traits.But times reveals everything, so when it comes to deciding the people you will have relationships with, whether personal or business, give it some time. It’s easy for someone to pretend to be someone that they are not for a few weeks or a few months, but try to give it a year to make sure you know who they really are.Then, understand that everyone has a little weird in them. Everyone has a different mix of character traits, with desirable and less desirable aspects mixed in. Just make sure the weirdness doesn’t out-weigh the rest too much. Allow for the mix in your relationships, as long as it’s not overboard.“Three things that will mess you up: Pride, stubbornness, and being overly sensitive” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Points to Keep In MindProbably about 70% of people that you will run into have serious psychological issuesIf you don’t understand psychological issues, you might start second-guessing yourself and thinking that you’re the one with issuesThe dark triad is one way to understand psychological issues of varying degreesIt’s ok to be a little eccentric, but know where it becomes a problemThree things that will mess you up: Pride, stubbornness, and being overly sensitiveA lot of times pride expresses itself as angerOften, stubborn people come across as very nice, but do not act on adviceEverybody is allowed to be a little weird. Maybe 20%. Just not too muchThe first step in progress is massive awarenessBe careful about all new relationships. Time reveals all, so give it time to understand who people really areBe honest with yourself. Admit who you are and your weakness. And see if maybe you should get a pro to help you, and see a psychologistSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

People Pleasing Isn't the Way to Success
“Don’t try to please everyone. Just do you” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)It feels like the level of narcissism in the world is continually increasing. Just take a look at your Instagram feed, and you will see it proudly on display. It seems like nothing is more important to people today than themselves and their looks.Maybe it’s time to take a step back and reevaluate our emphasis. Put more effort into the truly important things in life, and less into the ones that don’t matter. Put less effort into how you look, and more into what you do.At the end of the day, you can’t please everyone, so don’t worry about it. Just do you, and do good in the world.“Be willing to experiment. Don’t be close-minded” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Points to Keep In MindDon’t try to please everyone. Just do youNarcissism is everywhere. People think it’s all about themBe willing to experiment. Don’t be close-mindedYou need a small amount of narcissism to improve yourself. But it seems like it’s out of control these daysWe need to become more curious people about many thingsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, most people don’t. Most people don’t read at all, but if they do read, it’s probably either light, fluffy novels or maybe a self-help book here and there. But what about history? What can a deeper understanding of history do for your life, in helping you achieve the best life possible?Today, I’m going through some moments in history, and what can be learned from them. Because without and understanding of history, there really is no way that we can predict the future. But because history tends to repeat itself, if we develop an understanding and knowledge of history and the trends that come back time and time again, we can better understand the world around us, and make more sense of where it’s headed, as well as if current political decisions are likely to be a good idea."The reward should be emphasized in education to motivate students to learn" - Tai Lopez(click to tweet) Points to Keep In MindTo start learning history, focus first on what you enjoyHistory should be more about stories than dates and numbers to be interestingShow the reward before you teach in order to effectively learn, and want to learn!First you get the mindset, then you launch the business, then you get the money. The progression is importantUse the HEXACO personality test to more fully understand personalitiesThe C, which stands for Conscientiousness, is probably the most important attribute when it comes to making moneyConscientiousness:PerfectionismOrganizationPrudence (the ability to make good decisions)Parents are usually the worst thing for their kidsPolitics and Republican vs Democrat tends to have more to do with personality typesKnowing history, and how it repeats itself, will help you earn more money and be more successfulThe mark of an intelligent person is to see both sides of a storyStudy history so that you don’t make stupid decisionsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
