Finding joy in life’s simple moments feels way more rewarding than chasing money or status. This interview really struck a chord with me-it reminded me of the timeless idea tht true happiness comes from living with purpose & appreciating what really matters, not just the surface-level stuff.

Amazing way to explain what it means to be positive 👍🏻... jazakallah Khair...I felt too good to get this precepective ...the opposite of is not death is not life but birth
I bought my dodge viper 11 years ago. It sits in my garage with a cover, four flat tires and hasn’t been driven in about 5 years. Material things mean nothing.
It's really amazing. All of the podcasts, books and articles I read on this, and similar topics, lead back to the principles and practices of stoic philosophy
Wayne Dyer - Change your thoughts, change your life is a book that changed my life (was recommend my therapist years ago instead of pills, can't ever thank her enough). Though in my perspective you can choose in life happiness or meaning. If you chose happiness you will become blind to many subtleties in society and you will live in LALA Land. If you chose meaning the path is more difficult but also rewarding from insight and you won't need the validation of anyone. Making your goals just to be happy all the time that's a narcissistic belief in my humble opinion.
I listen to anything and everything Mo says with so much intent and interest. He could read the back of a shampoo bottle and i would hear it as gospel❣
The fact that there is at least 1 chance to have an iphon without "intelligent intervention"... isnt it itself the evidence of a greater intelligent/devine design/intervention?
Thank you sir for your long est message and motivation topic it's so very interesting for me to embrace what is important ienjoy and take care to both of you❤
Amazing, I love this got all his books - we all have a story to tell that may help others - the reality is in the end we own nothing except our own story, so we need to make sure its a good one - I would love to share my personal story on your network of loss adversity and nuclear power of love and connectivity - if by chance this gets read please reach out and I am happy to give you a brief insight over a phone call - love to you all Tony Terranova
Interesting guy. But the question remains, by being driven to have the societal status of working for Google, and then realising that there are other things that are more important, how has your perception of success shifted?
I LOVE Mo… which is why I stopped to listen at your show… however ever 2 minutes there is a commercial interruption of the conversation… Never will I listen to your show for that reason However I will always follow Mo
Samo 10 posto našega mozga radi, ostalo 90 posto je uglavnom neaktivno, moguće je koristiti više od 10 posto, ali mislim da Bog samo nekolicini daje da otkriva ostale postotke i mogućnosti toga čarobnog Božijeg dara.. Jer zasigurno kada bi svimogli koristiti sav potencijal mozga došlo bi do zlouporabe itd
And... Albert Einstein is the greatest human who has ever been. He made theories out of only nothing, and until today no one have even been able to go against it, although we got 1000 more information's and things to help us understand. That is the difference between nature and humans today.
We are in a world where some of us, like the millions in Ukraine, are going to enter the new year 2025 with a tragedy that started a few years ago. We are on earth, the only place we all have in common. And yet, we can see on our screens the extent to which even for children life is a heavy dilemma, etc. With all these, how can we say that 'see your life aa a computer, reprogram it to change your life'? God doesn't change. Human beings, the created being, don't change what he has as fundamental. Let's see our lives a the sacred gifts of God. Let's see the reality in which we are the things we haven't created. Let's remind ourselves that everything has been offered. And with hope and a fear of God translated into love, we can live a life that suits human beings. These millions of children who are traumatized can't reprogram their brains. The millions of elderly can't reprogram their brain, etc. God is an order.
Your mind is not like a computer, you can't reprogram it in the way that people try to suggest. We don't use programming language even though it does exist in side us, the problem we have today is we have lost our collective imagination because we let TV/Movies/Screen writers do all the imaginative work for us. In essence, we have outsourced our imagination to Big Screen TVs and Projectors and screen Writers. Without imagination you might as well be in the Matrix. Screens have replaced our imagination, it's the "use or lose it principle. " Ask yourself this, when did we last have poetry and imagination in our music and TV, instead of the copy and paste culture we have today with j the same old remakes of the same old movies. Imagination is being killed in the Western world, because of money printing leading to higher asset prices and wages, which then drives companies to create technology to take the place of human ingenuity and creativeness. And then we have quotes like Rise and Grind... Like who the heck wants to grind thier whole life.. Yea, let your imagiantion run crazy on that idea of grind.. Please.. Nobody wants that.

Amazing way to explain what it means to be positive 👍🏻... jazakallah Khair...I felt too good to get this precepective ...the opposite of is not death is not life but birth
❤❤🎉🎉
This is an incredible interview. One of the best on youtube.
Awesome Channel! Some of the best conversations I heard on TH-cam are here on this channel! Thanks for that and keep going Brothers ❤
I bought my dodge viper 11 years ago. It sits in my garage with a cover, four flat tires and hasn’t been driven in about 5 years. Material things mean nothing.
😂
Everything you have you will loose everything you are you are🤌🏽
Ok give it to someone so
@Mecagothits the fact that you're laughing with such evil intent is what's wrong with the world.
Imagine it without you.
It's really amazing. All of the podcasts, books and articles I read on this, and similar topics, lead back to the principles and practices of stoic philosophy
Thank you for this interview. So much respect for this man.
Omgggg thank you Mo for such a raw honest conversation 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
BIG props to this channel, love the conversation, love the set and love the upside down Klimt painting called the Kiss next to Mo😍

Stoic philosophy and practices. Very valuable, not new

Stunning ❤️🙏
Thank you and bless you 🙏

Mo is something else you have can hear him for 24 hours straight
HI muligan brother team / i genuine request you plz conduct the interview of tavi castro .
Interesting guy. But the question remains, by being driven to have the societal status of working for Google, and then realising that there are other things that are more important, how has your perception of success shifted?
Great question
He is talking eastern philosophy mostly Hindu and Buddhist
And stoic philosophy
His name is Mohamed. He’s talking as a Muslim. 😊
