      Tom Bilyeu - without you carefully selecting these guests, researching them/ their lives/ their works and asking them such incredibly profound questions, these shows could easily turn into (seemingly) narcissistic rants, with no aim or structure, that helps no one!
      I hope you know the value you’re bringing to hundreds of thousands of people’s lives - even just going by the comments it’s clear your shows and messages have turned around trajectories of people’s lives, helped them find purpose, turbo charge them with hope from the motivation and inspiration that your shows/ AMAs/ messages bring! My sincerest gratitude to you for the work you do.

    This was simply amazing. Very empowering. I started pursing my passion in health coaching and posting Health and Fitness Videos every week on TH-cam since this February. I've been a registered nurse for 20 years (very established) and now I'm starting from the bottom in health coaching. People think I'm crazy but to actually be a part of someone else's transformation is so satisfying and fulfilling. I love these videos because it helps me keep the faith, even when I only have 10 views. If I reach only 1 person, I have made my mark. This show was one of the main reasons I got off my ass, opened my parachute, and jumped. :)

    Man, I'm watching Impact theory every time I work out
    ( starting to run out of episodes :-b ). It gives me so much drive and hunger. As a French guy doing his best to make it in Australia where I currently live, these interviews give me strength to keep pushing no matter what.
    This one was a must watch, definitely getting Bedros' book!
    All the people you interview are somewhat related in the way they think, it is very interesting and inspiring: - don't bullshit yourself, no excuses, and you're not a victim
    - keep pushing even if it hurts
    - this hunger in you is here for a reason, don't fuc@!#g numb it with drugs or alcohol, explore it!
    Thank you so much Tom for what you do! Really appreciate it . Keep up the good work

    Be Hard to Yourself! I just told to my self last night that "Mia you are being hard to yourself, if not for your perfectionism and self doubt finishing MBA will not be as hard as you imagine" then I watched this video and say oh I did it right. May thoughts last year were getting the diploma is easy but getting the right skills and discipline that I can use to be the best version of me in the future will take time. I know that good things happen not by luck but a fruit of your hardwork. Right now, I'm back at school working on my thesis paper and I was blown away with the energy I'am bring to the class but I always remind my self my real battle is inside me and only me who can tell if I win or loose. Be responsible with your owm growth, happiness and success. Thank you for sharing this interview! 😇😇😇😇

    Thank you, Tom, this guest was special. Especially his early thinking of blue collar being the safety net to hang your life upon. But I really feel your pain because I struggle with being good friend because I know that any progress in any situation means you have to lead people towards a lot of pain. Changing is painful and when people see your results they are inspired but than you have to tell them how painful it is to change, they back away. But I just want you to know that all of your advice I take with gratitude and appreciation, and even though some of it lead to tears of anger, frustration, disappointment, I see the results getting better and it is worth it. Thank you through the tears, I needed somebody to push me and make me understand that my situation is beneath my abilities and I have to start learning and pushing myself.🙏🙏🙏

You could have retired extremely wealthy and forgot about all of us, but you selflessly are bringing this content to us. It is for those of us who are still trying to pull out of the scarcity mentality. It is for people who are already successful but want to go to the next level.

    Something to add to his comment on being hard on yourself... You want to be hard on yourself the right way. The right way is raising your standards-saying I deserve & am capable of better & damnit I'm gonna do that for myself because it's the RIGHT thing to do. And then giving yourself a pat on the back EVERY time you do whatever beneficial action/ritual. And to keep UP that appreciation as a core part of the ritual itself. It's blowing positive wind into your own sails to keep it going!
    And when you mess up what you wanted to do--making sure you don't attach that error to yourself through shame! Guilt? Fine. That just encourages you to do better because you deserve better and want to contribute/connect. Saying that's not me-that's now how I do things anymore because I can do better. Choosing a better destiny line.
    Being hard on yourself the wrong way will only drain you. I've tried that. Being one of my own best friends works infinitely better. (& I have to watch when that asshole friend sneaks back in to give me destructive-type feedback & lies) And when you look at older people who were mean to themselves and never learned to pat themselves on the back, they are in so much pain it's painful for others to be around. And no one but them can give themselves permission to love themselves and give up that bitter self-judging pain.
    Pats on your own back can feel self-indulgent at first but it's just the same as really letting a genuine compliment IN when someone else says it. It's not self-indulgent when you're patting yourself for doing the right things~it's simply life & love affirming! Regenerating energy for you to be ready to do it next time🙌❤️

    One of my favorites Tom. I love Bedros and his energy. It reminds me a lot of myself. What a great story of using the rage for good. Keep them coming Tom. Love you brother !

    Awesome interview! I absolutely love him saying to embrace the rage. The suffering we sometimes hold on to but not for the best, use it and transform.

    He's right. We get told over and over that we should be careful and ignore that hunger inside. That fire to DO something that makes a difference. I wish someone had taught me to be a "fighter jet" in high school to prepare me for what it takes to really succeed and grow and overcome adversity. Love this channel! Great guest and it's nice to hear this directly from someone who actually lived and grew through adversity and struggle on his own.

    My biggest struggle, not having the PHYSICAL ability to work, to create, to have a steady pattern. I'm trying to pitch my mind, ideas, and mental compassity to make it. It's so hard when you are disabled and have an unpredictable life. TH-cam had been my key to opening the door of giving, helping and educating. I need to reopen that opportunity.

    Tom dear Tom, I have been watching your show impact theory for a couple of month now. Every day I watch 2 to 3 videos. My mindset is changing to the better and I really don't know any the people you interview and I don't know how you know them. Know that I am grateful for this channel and I love your modesty and the modesty of all amazing people you bring to your show and a big thank you for you and all your effort to make the world a better place by positively impacting us.

      Evan Green He’s been into religious/spiritual stuff all along. He gets it’s not for everybody and it’s not what his content is about. He’s still good and still teaches the same great fundamental things in my opinion.

    It's good to note that he says after being told to set a date for his goal, "but what if I fail? I went straight to me failing" this destroys people's dreams so quickly. Glad he was told to try Not to fail just try. We gotta TRY

    I have listened to a lot of episodes on this channel, but I have to say this episode is the one I have listened to countless times. This man speaks the truth.. "I control my own economy", "don't buy the shovel, sell the shovel" just some of the brilliant quotes mentioned. Love it!

  • @zahraamanah8366

    So simple yet so profound. Definitely one of the best episodes of Impact Theory. I love this idea of Servant Leader, as developed by Robert Greenleaf. I’d like to live my life applying this principle. Thank you for such a great reminder. He had some really snappy and powerful formulas. Thanks for sharing the greatness and how to transform our lives so we can also IMPACT others 👍🏼🤝

    Thank you Tom & Team. This episode came at an opportune time!!! Bedros is a truly inspiring. Great gem @21:40, put yourself in a position that you thrive not you're going to be comfortable! I am an immigrant from Vietnam many many years ago by airplane. I think it depends on the age and mindset of each individual. I still need to uncover and get rid of my limiting beliefs.

  • @deyu1307

    Suffering is truly the brightest light within the darkness, once you learn to see it as a resource. After my dad suffered a brain stroke, my mom with tuberculosis, bad nutrition all three, living in a 2room house, no running water, bathroom, kitchen and 300€ total monthly income, i (20ythen) went through an alcoholic episode for 3y, followed by 2ys heavy drug abuse and ran away 1500km 3 countries apart . Finally last year realizing my escapism and what it ment, i awoke. Now with the help of your videos, i am slowly writing my own story, regardless of the circumstances i am presented and making most out of everything i am given. I am drug free, alcohol free, tobacco free, i am healthy, exercise, meditate and working hard in a factory job, followed by finances, economics, investing, psychology and third language studies. I am honored and grateful to say that you, your intentions, invitees and videos make 40% of my 180degree life shift. I am deeply thankful.
    Ps: i am 120% sure that i will get to the point i intend to be, and maybe i‘ll have the honor of sitting in that chair beside you and tell my story so that people can see that from dirt man can turn gold...with the right guidance and inner tools, one just have to truly see it and crush it’s illusory chains. Thank you dude, keep doing your work passionately! namaste

    @jn8922 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This man's honesty is refreshing. He doesn't just have theories telling people what to do and spouting motivational crap set to music. He was broken, lived through physical and mental hardships and didn't sit back and say no one understands him and became depressed. He's a true inspiration, not a fake wannabe TH-cam hero.

    Much respect for sharing about the abuse you survived as a child. Very hard for men to share that, and it's important for people to know that happens in order to prevent it. I love your content even though I"m not in fitness, I now follow your podcast too.
