The Jungle Series: Rule #5: Ruthlessly Self-Evaluate

Most people will take action, fail, and then wonder why they aren't getting what they want. This wondering is passive, childish and non-effective.   Instead of wondering, I want you to make the habit of deep introspection a habit. We call this "ruthless self-evaluation". When you do this consistently, you develop tough skin and make improvements faster... results will then, flow. In this episode I show you the mental framework for evaluating yourself ruthlessly, and how to implement.   Time Stamps: (1:22) Don’t listen if you haven’t heard the first episodes (2:58) A quick review of the previous episodes (Rules 1-4) (4:44) RULE 5: Ruthlessly Self-Evaluate (6:39) Avoid the “self-help mentality” (7:39) Compare yourself to ultimate results (9:06) Next steps: Ruthless evaluations + Immediate action (9:43) The price of not doing this… (12:29) “What is it that I’m doing?”

The Jungle Series: Rule #1: Set Aggressive Outcomes Without Limits

So many people limit themselves. They set their goals too small and reasonable... why go after something when you could fail, embarrass yourself, and fall flat on your face?   This is the code of someone in the Zoo, not the Jungle. In this episode, I show you the first rule, which is about setting big goals, and operating under no limits.

(22:56) The logical breakdown: "Why not set that big goal?" (29:14) What is it that you are actually going after?

The Jungle Series: I'm Yo Daddy Now

In the first episode of this podcast series, I break down what it means to be in the jungle, why victimhood will be the death of you, and the reason why I am the way that I am...   It's important to understand the motivation behind the I'm Not You movement, because it will be challenging to create the level of results you want, to become a level of great you've always aspired to be.
