      Chris, you've never invited any cricketer on you podcast even when you've a deep history with the sport. Plus, a cricketer is views guaranteed especially from the subcontinent. Just contact Ben Stokes or Jos Buttler, I'm sure they know you. One from the subcontinent would be more interesting.

He did this study: "Male circumcision and sexual function in men and women: a survey-based, cross-sectional study in Denmark" (published in International Journal of Epidemiology in 2011.

      My advice: find something that you are good at doing and you don't mind doing it everyday. That is the kind of job you should seek out. Chasing your true passion is important, but putting all of your eggs in one basket is foolish. You need to find the right balance between work and pursuing passion. Too much of either will cause burn out. This is a much more realistic approach to achieving your goals. It's okay to have a desire to follow your fantasies, just know that they can be deceiving. Much luck to you.

  • @malsypright

    This really helped me take a step back and reevaluate everything.
    I struggled a lot with doubt and self-confidence for a while, and I think a major contributing factor was the fact that I moved around a lot between schools and jobs, for years I was rarely in the same job for more than 4 months and I was shifting back and forth between towns. Thus I was always the new guy. I was always out of the loop, an outsider entering into an established clique, someone who needed mentorship, and that contributed to me seeing myself as incompetent and socially inept. My failures were inevitable, my successes were just me getting lucky, etc. Doesn't help that I'm a perfectionist, and I'm realizing I should unlearn that at least a little.
    But I'm someone who never truly did quit, and someone who put in hard work, and has continually improved his station in life, and has plans for the future. Would a useless moron have achieved everything I have? I don't think so.

    Your interviews are so on point - you get to the most important questions straight at the start. I can pick a random podcast of yours and it's always great, informative and precise. Seems that you really get to know the person's fundamental ideas before an interview and find some hard questions that really make them think, instead of letting them present ideas they already know.

    The thing is I 100% agree, failing and learning is important, but now because we end up locked in with a family/morghage and a job with a boss watching our every move, it feels harder than ever to fail and learn because you are walking a tight rope. You almost have to be fearless with little to lose in order to be willing to fail as many times as it takes to succeed. 1stman talks about the male advantage where you go solo without trying to settle down with a wife/kids until your late thirties/early forties. That way you give yourself more time to figure it out.

    • @eomoran

    Great episode as usual, Chris! Keep it going, you're killing it lately. If you're up to a suggestion, I'd like to see a bit of content discussing the carnivore diet (the one the Peterson's do) with a professional, at least to showcase the pros and cons, and to just have someone in your podcast that counters the overall medical narrative around nutrition and the history of the current guidelines.
    A couple of great options could be Dr. Paul Saladino (@CarnivoreMD) and Dr. Ken Berry (@KenDBerryMD), or others such as Dr. Rachel Brown. Hope you find this topic a valid and compelling one for your content! I am a patient with an autoimmune condition (ankylosing spondylitis) and this diet pathway absolutely turned my health upside down, in the best possible sense, so I really am an advocate for it.

    The world HAS screwed you over. The collective leadership of the world has determined the calculus of risk and they've decided whether actively or passively that you are an acceptable loss. Your trauma, the wrongs you have endured, the injustice there is in the world etc. was deemed "acceptable losses" and the people that have deemed your pain "acceptable" will never be held accountable for it.
    This is why you need to hold onto the pain, squeeze the collective peoples of humanity and get your just recompense. Work as hard as it takes to compensate yourself for all the injustices the world has given you. Work extra because the world will fight you for every inch and you deserve to give yourself every bit of interest for the effort that you should never have had to exert. Work hard until you set the balance books right. Every single wrong paid back to yourself achieved, then and only then can you rest. You owe it to no one else but yourself.
    Is that a toxic mindset?
