Key Takeaways:
1. Meditate and Journal
2. Ask yourself: "What can I learn from the people I hate the most?"
3. Lower your standards of expectations to get you moving forward. Even writing two pages a day mean you win the day
4. If you are stuck ask yourself: "What makes you angry?" Write about that.
5. Copyright your faults - That's what makes you unique and preventing competition from imitating you
6. 'Morning Pages' - 'Bitch and moan and complain' into your journal so that you can clean your mind out of negativity before starting your day
7. Absorbing more information will not make you a billionaire. You have to apply what you read / watch. Take action
8. Dedicate yourself to ONE THING AT A TIME. Focus is the key. Don't do two things at once.
9. 95% is enough. Don't make an activity painful because you 'kill' yourself to get to 100%. Keep it enjoyable
10. If you are stressing about a goal, say to yourself: "Who cares"
11. Pair one serious goal with one absurd goal
thanks
Typical world conquering methods...
Thank you :)
Thank you ✅
Pool ist ein paar Tage in
I just learned to swim as age 54 thanks to Tim.
Rhonda Benson hey, I'm still in highschool and really don't like swimming because I had a terrible time trying to learn it as a kid. from the other side, is it worth it?
You need to learn how to and learn it fast. Its feels like a gift everyday I swim. The freedom of the water and confidence I now have is truly a gift. Your way too young to not Don't wait till your 54.
Rhonda Benson Alright! thanks for the passionate response! I'll get on it as soon as possible, and maybe Tim Ferris will help
Maybe
Yes, learnand..take classes. Swimming is mentally therapeutic and amazing workout especially when u are rehabbing an injury or just getting old, heavier or just cant take the impact on your joints.
In my opinion, the difference between average people and titans is ACTION. No matter which methods are you using to do something, to get motivated, the thing is to do something. Each person has enough resources to go on and find solutions, but the method depends on the self analyse, to remember when you had the flow and the condition to reproduce it. :)
Preach! You're right on the money.
Well said!!🙌🏻🙌🏻
#justdoit
Effective action
Tony Robbins main saying “you got to take ACTION”!!
It's INCREDIBLE how Tim remembers all the names of everyone he has spoken to in the past
He wrote a book about them which is the subject of the show
"Lower your standards till you get started" ... Pure gold!
I'm starting to think my unwillingness to suffer may be the thing that is holding me back more than anything and ironically causes most of my actual suffering.
What makes Tom Bilyeu one of my favorite people ever is his humbleness. He's worth half a billion!! And yet he sits in his chair and is a student - listening more than talking.... I mean just wow.....
How do you think he made half a billion?
He is hilarious and super knowledgeable. Love it! Want a second round with Tim Ferris.
Everyone you "introduce" me to has a big impact in my life, and for that I am forever grateful to you Tom.
Loved these sentences Tom, "To continue to do profound things, it's like you have to reinvent yourself." Also Tim's question, "What can I learn from the people I hate the most?" Tim mentioned, "Some of your biggest flaws may in fact be assets" Wow!...Great episode! Best wishes!
A kick boxer, dancer and author... amazing.
"my goal is to make me obsolete as soon as possible" that is the sexiest thing I have ever heard
Yeah! I love that!
Sick man almost in line with deep spiritual truth
This will go into the category of videos that I will need to watch again at some point. Excellent!
Nice! Glad it delivered value!
MOS DEF!
New Future Builder like right now for me
Greed, a nice refresh.
facts
Everyone should buy this book! It is a reference manual of tactics, nuggets of wisdom, and mindset shifts that can change your life completely! Use what is useable and discard what is not and enjoy the journey ! I continue to love this show and Tom always has the best guests on the show!! Thank you for all that you do !!!
It's truly my pleasure! Thanks for being such a rad part of this community. And I totally agree with you about his book!
no, that book is fucking useless, filled with incoherent, barely applicable innformation
What’s the title of the book?
@@delonhope3147 🖍️✨🌎
†𝟭𝟱𝟭𝟮𝟲𝟳𝟳𝟵𝟰𝟲𝟮
Bought the book and read it in two days.....awesome read. Tim is such a cool and humble dude and just keeps on giving. Love your work Tom, cheers buddy.
Thanks, man! And yeah, Tim is amazing. Such a chill, down to earth dude.
His book the 4hour workweek changed my life
How?
How
I enjoyed the part about “what makes you angry.” Because people get angry over the things they are passionate about and it taps into your passion quickly.
Example: you’re passionate about animals, then thinking about animal cruelty will tap into your passion of caring. So you’re attacking what your passionate about, almost from a blue team mindset while defending from a red team attack. Love it!!
Fantastic advice from two of the best and brightest minds. Entrepreneurship is certainly not an easy road to venture out too, but thanks to people like Tim and Tom we have tons of advice and expertise readily available. Thanks fellas, keep doing great work.
I normaly don't comment on any videos but this is just insanly inspriring! 17 minutes in and I'm sitting and writing a list of how I can achieve my 3 year goals as a musician I just 4 months. You have a new subscriber from this day man, watching your videos gives me so much energy and this one in perticular the belief that seemingly impossible things are possible. A sincere thank you!
I've been watching this 'show' for about a year... Awesome job. You help and give many people life! Thank You
Amazing interview! Tim Ferris is truly humble and dedicated to using his experiments to help others. Thank you Tom for putting all this inspiring content together. I would love to see you have Bruce Lipton on, he's a biologist that studies the power of belief and epigenetics.
Definitely one of the most informative videos on youtube! Great stuff, Tom! Loved it!
Thanks Arsenio!
Tom,
You're a legend Man!
Thanks for all you do for the world.
Arsenio Buck ä
Thank you Tom - you are an extraordinary person for putting this show together! It helps more than you know x
Love this a lot thank you all for putting this together and being part of this superlearning mission
This was a great interview, learned a lot. Really inspired to buy the book.
Tim is just amazing. Going through his book right now one of best source of wisdom! And Tom you making great impact my man. Can't thank you enough!!!
Agreed! Tim is truly amazing.
Bittu Chaudhary lol
Master your habits. Go to bed at the same time, wake up same time, and learn, learn, learn. This video came on my feed after listening to "Crush your Day With This Early MORNING ROUTINE! Every day getting better at becoming who I need to be!
Please bring back Tim Ferriss to the show, this short time did not even scratch the surface of how much he has to offer!
I love your show Tom 🙏🏽. These guests are so helpful and I take away beneficial lessons every time I watch.
Hey Tom- I’ve listened to a bunch of interviews that you’ve done and there is always great content. You are super excellent in your style of extracting the “gem” of the other person’s excellence. This comment is also directed to Tim. I’ve enjoyed many of his shows. Keep it coming. Rock on.
You have THE BEST GUESTS on your show!!! Thank you for being the channel that everyone needs on TH-cam!! Truly inspired
This channel is a goldmine
Thankfully you brought Tim Ferris back for Episode 2! Now it's on impact theory, love it! Very much so looking forward to reading tools of titans. Keep growing everyone!
You're going to love Tools of Titans! It delivers on all of the hype!
Have you read it?
Two incredible interviewers in one video jam packed with value! What more could we ask for. Awesome interview!
I Don't XXsws e
I love that your show is not just a fluff peice for people to promote themselves you ask the right questions that we all want answered from these powerhouse guests and I never leave an episode without learning something new keep up the great work Tom!
18:00 and on... "what can i learn from people i hate the most?" I LOVE THIS. I have been saying "let your dragons be your princesses". Love the mental flip this allows.
"Let your dragons be your princesses"! That's great!
17:56 Thank you camera man!!😍
Tom, the study guide just after your interview with Tim was brilliant! I've not noticed that addendum to any interviews until today - being captivated by your guest Tim. I got to go to several topics I would have to spend at least a half hour looking up, with "hunt and peck" method. Your guest choices are exquisite. Most would probably say fantastic. I always try to go at least (1) level higher than usual.
Hey Tom! Thanks again for a great episode of Impact Theory! I love the fact that this show is back! And with you bring back previous guests I hope you got Laird Hamilton coming back in? :)
Number one thing I’ve learnt from Tim ferriss, is probably not to believe everything he says without researching it myself
Got examples? Havent been following for some years
Two titans together, a wealth of knowledge
Serious magic to my ears!!!!!!!!!
Tim can add “seriously random stuff” to his impressive list of accomplishments... and I listen to his books at 1.50x
The build up of Tom's guest introductions. Love this!
My two favorite people! These guys, have been the people who "pulled me out of the matrix". I feel actual genuine love for them!
Thank you, Grace!!! That is so kind! Love right back!
I found the low expectation tip to be deeply insightful, after setting goals for myself and frustrating over not meeting them leading me to waste time in frustration, it’s much better to get something done even if small.
Another great show with an inspiring and informative guest. Tim Ferris I will buy your book! Thanks Tom and Tim for sharing your life hacks and wise advice with the world.
A lot of valuable information in this interview, thank you Tim Ferris and Tom Bilyeu for sharing such good content with us!
Just bought the book.
Found so many gems already and only halfway through this huge Encyclopedia of life hacks!
Thanks Impact theory/Tim.
Even though I've read the book, the interview still had a lot of great content! I love the don't be a donkey idea from Derek Sivers. Keep the videos coming, I love them (and beautiful thumbnails by the way).
another gold mine of advice..i am just always amazed by how how smoothly you manage and guide through these discussions so we get the essence of the guests' valuable thoughts! thanks!
Awesome! Glad you got value out of it!
I am so damn grateful for this interview...I have followed Tim for years now ...but he still blows my mind
absolutely brilliant! I very much loved the "high expectation part."
always start small, then gradually increase the difficulty as you automate the habit
I listened to this while jogging, and I swear to Bob that I could most of the time not distinct the two of you. You have similar tone of the Voice and similar eloquence. Is this incidentual or delirebate?
When I looked, you did mirror his pose a lot. I concluded you most probably is a dedicated fan of Tim.
No matter, good talk with you two.
Ferriss really gave of himself here. You can tell he's a great listener, which helps with his success... Great pitch and catch interview.
Last lines show the real character...make myself obsolete.. such ppl are the ones who never go obsolete 🙏🏾😌
You should really host Dwayne Johnson on Impact Theory! Think it would be super popular and informative. But I loved Tim Farris' video. Incredibly helpful and inspirational.
Hey Tom...What I love the most is when u say.. Be Legendary.. :D Love you Man..
Thank you! Love you right back!
This is by far one of best interviews I have ever heard/seen. Good shit bro. Really good shit.
24:20 YUP! Just what I needed. Thank you. Self imposed deadline and get angry 'enough' for a break through moment.
Wow !!! That’s me I’m really not good at anything but I’ll suffer and sacrifice things that I love to accomplish something. Thank you guys
I, too, want to learn everything I can and reading the 4-hour workweek initiated me to how to think life differently. I've become a bit more efficient and I'm trying to set one goal at a time (have a hard time with this one). i guess I'll try to add one absurd goal to my list of pursues. Tim really helped me to learn more about how I work. I've always been judged for being a "super learner" because I would never settle and always pursue new things after the next. Came to the conclusion that I could have about 4-5 goals running at once, and to focus on one at a time until completion or "99%" accomplished. Not all interests have to be pursued at the same level.
One of my favourites. I love these two together!!
Hey Tom, another great contribution to the world. Awesome work man, keep it up!!!
I love watching this over and over, he was so loose and flowing! Thank you for the brain food!
Thank you very much Tom for coming back!. I was a super fun of inside quest now impact theory. You are awesome!!!
Thank you for being a part of the community! I'm honored that you found me again!
Loved his answer for what impact he wanted to leave.
Great interview Tom as always, Tim is one author that talks and writes very well on several different subjects, I love his books, and I am very happy you got him on your show. Lots of golden nuggets like you said.
I know your list of potential guests is probably very long, but I would like to ask you to please look up my good friend Lu Lastra. If you are looking for someone to really blow everyones fucking mind in this show, its him. Lu is a retired Navy Seal that reached the same level as Jocko within the Navy but has a different mindset and way of working, eventhough he doesnt puts himself out in the media very much he has been hired in the past to work closely with organizations like NASA, police academy, pro baseball teams, and with thousands of people in the navy teaching, and showing them how to work more efficiently as a group, becoming better leaders, visualizing and having a very strong mental thoughness, not to mention breaking world records skydiving, and with more than 35 years in the highest ranks of the Navy, and being so consistent with the the way he lives now practicing what he taught all his life I believe he can be one of your best guests ever on this show.
Please google him and look him up, I would be more than happy to give you his phone number if you are interested. You can reach out to me any day at 619-678-4227
All the best,
Luis
WOW Tom!
I'm beginning to say this about every episode on this show that its "one of the best episodes!"
Always remember that ripples of your effort are reaching places you wouldn't imagine. I'm a Pakistani Dr. trained in Cuba and currently in Peru referring people to your videos and ideas..... improving exponentially what I'm doing in the process.
keep it up bro!
That is awesome! It actually is distressingly easy to lose sight of how many people we're touching. Thank you for writing! I'll be sharing this with the team for sure!!!
Never seen tom look at someone with such admiration... What a duo!
Fantastic. Thank you Tom for presenting Tim to us!
This is a tremendous interview. Love Tim Ferriss most!
Man, thank you for an incredible episode... love, love, love Tim Ferris. How he remains so humble and authentic is inspiring. I am so thankful for discovering you and Impact Theory - Best find of 2017 - It probably will still be at the end of the year- your content and delivery is just so top notch, seems inconceivable that I will more excited about something else.
Sign me up for that Army - I am on my own journey "adopting Kaizen for Life " Kaizen = continuous Improvement.
The latter half of 2016, I spent consuming as much insight and knowledge I could find - devouring information however all in theory. 2017 is my year for action - yes I will continue to find new and more perspectives however focusing more on implementation.... and daily progress. Baby steps but always in the direction of where I intend to end up.
Meditation and journalling is now part of my morning routine - two weeks into this daily habit - wow, I am unable to articulate the impact that has had to my energy, focus and will power for achieving consistency in my daily goals.
Thank you again, #loveyourwork, a fan for life and to reiterate - where do we sign up for the army haha.
Absolutely, consistency builds momentum and I can already feel the positive force it is becoming. I have to stay grounded, focused on small daily achievements. deliberate action every step - trying to be ruthless with how I use my time
Thank you for the compliment - made my evening haha
Next big step is finishing off my blog and getting it live - "adopting Kaizen for Life " - I am documenting my progress, a honest reflection of the journey I am on + intend to use it to pay tribute to "the greats" that I have come across so far. My hope is that it may help, inspire others to discover people like Tom and Tim and have it ignite the passion to take control of their lives and MAKE SHIT HAPPEN. To quote Tony Robbins "we all have things we want,,,, but we don't get what we want, we get what we HAVE TO HAVE "
All the Best for 2017 to you as well!!
The Kaizen lifestyle is what it's all about! I'm excited that you're on it and that you're a part of this community!

hi
I loved this. Thank you Tom so much for putting this show together, it's for sure changing people's lifes!
I've shot cats that I liked more than you just to show you an example of what I've been doing to men like you most my life. I've literally killed 2 and a half million people in my life on purpose and used cruel means of conducting it. I'm a conquistador. I shoot people with guns to. If you weren't so scared of me I'd have no reason to kill you. But there's a 99.999999999999 percent chance that I'm going to be the one who does it. That's my destiny as far as you are concerned. I promised your parents I would snd I meant it. It's the least I could do to thank them for making one like you
@@myessyallyahamericus8405 I have a feeling this is best left read without context, but man am I curious.
@@myessyallyahamericus8405 reading this without context it sounds like a serial killers manifesto.
I need these type of people around me.
I've learned so much. Never heard of these guy's.
Thank you
There's a saying that when the student is ready, the teacher appears. I am so glad to have somehow landed up on your TH-cam channel. Tony Bilyeu, man you are doing a great job and best you are very real!!
Dear Tom, thank you so much. I've learned a lot from you. Your interviewing style is the best I've seen. Can you find a way to upload Quest interviews or share at least the notes?
again thank you so much
Love the new show and loved this episode!!! Keep'em coming!
Firas! What's up, brother?! I just mentioned you in a talk I gave the other day! Hope you're well and that we can get together again soon!
Has he been on the show Tom? If not i would love for you to have him on.
Don't know why this guy's subs are so low! these videos are amazing! I think part of the reason is people come here for a slice of motivation to get them through the day or whatever they are doing. Once they get their fix they leave feeling uplifted until they need it again. Maybe I'm wrong!
Love love Tim Ferris!!! Thank you for your unparalleled teaching🙏🏻⚛️💜
Really I`ve enjoyed reading Tim Ferris`book....very inspirational and mindblowing...
Thanks a lot Tim for this amazing interview
Glad you like the book! I loved it as well!
Love Tim! I learn so much from him, and thanks to IQ. Time Ferris is like today's Napoleon Hill.
This was too short. Time just flies when you listen to Tim Ferris.
+Tom Bilyeu The description is so well written and detailed. I found it really helpful, especially the "What you'll learn" part, I think it increases enormously the video's "replayability". Thank you
Please don't stop making your interviews and please keep placing links and 0:00 minutes in description to easily get back to particular pieces of the video. Be legendary!
Love that I'm starting from scratch like I did with I aside quest 🙌🏼 time to work my way through 👊🏼 1 impact theory a day keeps a shitty mindset at bay 😝
I love how Tom promotes the book at the end!
The low expectation resulting in high performance makes sense for people who overthink the task at hand, if I’m thinking about working on this big task that needs to get done I’ll put it off and it’ll never get done, I tell myself to do 5 minutes a day and I usually crank out an hour of work. It’s that initial push to get the ball rolling is what does it
Just found your page and will make it a consistent part of life & learning. Love what you said to Moran Chef about Antifragility, specifically the antifragility of being a learner. Working to merge and convert my curiosity to being proactive & finding, executing on worthy endeavours. You have a true fan in me, my friend! Respect.
I'm honored, Sammy! Glad you found us! Thank you for being a part of this community.
This man is a genius.......... I Love him sooooooooooooo much. I read 4hour work week and I am hooked ever since on how he analyze things.
Yes he's my hero and inspiration. Bc of him, 10years later I'm about to travel the world & be a digital nomad since I realized that life is meant to be lived after experiencing this damn pandemic. It's so inexpensive to travel & nothing to be afraid of as he explains in the 4 hr work week. I wish you well live out your dreams & be brave to face your fears to do the things you're afraid to do.
can't get enough of this. was sad when the interview ended. can't wait to read the book. also i'm seriously now intrigued about the fragrance
What an intellect and sense of humour - Brilliant! Thanks Tom
Goal in life is to receive an intro like Tim's
No be yourself
I never read 4 Hour Work Week because it just sounded like a silly concept (like lose weight without exercise/without eating healthy). But there were some really GREAT info in this interview. Sometimes I will get these ideas come and go in my mind that are related to what is discussed, but they are fragmented so I very rarely apply it
lol i was looking for a comment that would say this is all BS:)) could not find it....amazing BS, like a fashion...people like different concepts...about new life:) and life is always the same
Tom...Tim the greatest mentors ever... Watching most of your episode multiple times.. Love from India..Thank you
Questions lead to the biggest insights in life, they are the prerequisite to the greatest answers.
Ask questions. Particularly about how you can handicap yourself and remain as effective as possible, such as an 8 hour in 2 hours. Ask what doing the opposite of what you're not seeing results on for 48 hours would be like.
Creativity becomes a necessity when you add constraints, but at the same time balance it with removing the stress at other times when you find it particularly tough to come up with ideas.
And here I was waiting for a new episode at Inside Quest's channel... and you appear on my recommended videos! How dare you Tom, to be hiding in the Internet? :)
Love it, I'm glad you're back!
Haha! So glad you found the new show!!!
Good grief--this was awesome! Thank you so much for those nuggets!
That's Tim for you! He's aaaaaaamazing!!!
Great work Tom. It's hard to find an interviewer who can gel the conversation like this. Always a pleasure seeing Tim throw down too. Subbed to the channel now my man, keep up this good work!
Thanks, David! Honored to have you in the community!
Thank you for doing the work so we can all benefit from it!
