Well, you must be wrong on this page, because all Tom does is manipulation of your mind to make him appear as interesting, when he is not, in fact his information is pretty shallow and self-complimentary, (especially when putting himself on the lowest level to rise up by his mindset) while he uses a lot of adjectives for the purpose of positivism, and talking really fast and too much futility, to not give you time to ruminate about his content. I'd rather define him as "How to become a millionnaire by using peoples ignorance" And for that, he and his shows are from a psychological point of view quite interesting, if you want to be successful in business, which I don't, because my mindset is, how to live without looking for money, which he does...unilaterally attracted to the dollar like the face of the moon to the earth.

Stop valuing myself for being good at something and start valuing myself for being willing to learn I love that I’m going to teach my nephews this they are 4 and 6
I remind my five-year-old nephew about this frequently and he really seems to get it. The other day he was insisting that I had to do a drawing for him because he wanted it to be perfect. I said, "You know how I got so I could do it perfectly? By being willing to make a lot of mistakes and enjoy them because that's how you learn." He instantly picked up the pens and did a (lovely) drawing.
Tom is incredibly self aware. This is the first time I really understand his thinking even after hundreds of episodes on Impact Theory. It's truly amazing how you can deconstruct yourself to unleash your potential.
The world is yearning for the lost art of conversation and for the genuine people. It's such a welcome break from all the plattitudes, poses and soundbites everywhere in this day and age.
I have to say that Rich Roll is a very intelligent and well spoken individual. 🙏I’m always amazed at his capacity to guide high level and demanding interviews🙏🙏
In the last couple decades, this, in my opinion, is the single most empowering, and insightful, two-and-a-half hours I have ever had the pleasure to sit through, and I've listened to a lot of motivation, interviews, TED Talks, and podcasts over the last couple decades. Thank you for such recording, and sharing, this conversation. I am so moved, and inspired... at the end, the question was, "To all those people, sitting in their cubicles, wanting to know how to start moving forward, what do you tell them?" My "cubicle", over the last few years has a steering wheel attached to my desk, instead of a computer. I've been struggling my whole life with finding myself, financial difficulties, family development... I'm 42 years old, and I feel like I have nothing to show for my life, up to this point. Things are finally on the up-and-up, and I can finally see a pinhole of a light, in the distance. This interview is just the thing I needed, at just this perfect moment in time. Thank you.
The enlightened person has the same obstacles and life stresses as the unenlightened person, the only difference is their perspective and how they respond (rather than react) to it
Tom is my actual hero. He went from being awkward on camera to being so heart-wrenchingly powerful. When I saw him live, I cried. He got me. I'm not sure I've experienced a human who's been able to so effective at touching people's hearts in such a raw, aggressive way. I love you brother, please be truly proud of yourself.
This 2.5 hour interview is like 10 self improvement books. That's efficiency. The time we live in is unreal haha. Mental health will soon have positive growth at a very fast rate.
Dang so many great pieces of advice in this interview. I am surprised at how talkative Tom is because when he interviews people on his show his guests do most of the speaking. Shows what a great listener he is. 👍
He never used to be and used to speak over the guest all the time and ruin the interview. He has definitely learned how to control the interview in my humble opinion
@@jamesfrancis5987 well he looks incompetent interviewing his guests for sure. You don’t have to be quiet all the time to show you’re a great listener. I’d say the opposite if you ask right questions at the right time that’s exactly what shows you are a great listener.
He learned to let his guest speak in his first videos because people in the comments complained A LOT about how often he interrupted his guest to show off his own knowledge, he GREW AWESOMELY WELL, and I ended up liking him A LOT as an interviewer after he learned to listen to his guest.
I’ve been following Tom for two years now. This was a great summary of his life and gave me better understanding on where he is coming from. this was EXTREMELY interesting to me. Thank you!
Two of the most inspirational and amazing people I've ever listened to. I wish that both of you live forever. Making the world a better place. Thank you!
@1:15:44 "When somebody tells me I'm wrong, I have this rush of like 'Oh my god this is amazing, cuz if theyre right and really am wrong and they're making me aware of this, I'm gonna get more powerful" YESSSSSS!!!!! This is so refreshing to see someone else think!!!
A man that puts his marriage right at the top over his own ambitions - many men don't know it, but paradoxically that mindset is what lets wives feel safe and loved enough to let their men go all the way out on their ambitions. *Edit* I feel I need to put a caveat to this - note what I said - that the end result is that the women feel safe enough to LET THEIR MEN GO ALL THE WAY OUT ON THEIR AMBITIONS; that the men ACTUALLY GET TO DO THEIR THING IN THE END. This does not work for relationships where no matter what you do, the partner does not let go. It's especially true for crazy, selfish, insecure girlfriends who want you to give in all the time to them and when you do that, they lose respect for you. You need to know your worth (have enough self-respect) and the value of the relationship (to you to give up whatever you're giving up) and whether this girl's insecurity is a bottomless pit. If it's bottomless, no amount of you giving up yourself will fill that hole. If that happens, go do your thing but keep in touch and be warm and welcoming. If she's any good, she will decide if she wants to keep up with you and deal with her inner issues in order to stay with you. If there is ALWAYS drama with WHATEVER you do, that's a sure sign to give up. Drama 24/7 is BAD news but then again, you have to be patient to ride out the storm too until she makes her decision. And a little competition for who receives your attention and decency will help the girl make her decision abit faster. ;) Be smart and know that YOU HAVE TO BE THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE. There is no negotiation on this point.
I think it depends individually, have heard advice that putting the relationship first can make your wife or girlfriend lose respect for you and stuff, as in a man has to have a purpose
@@alchapopapo I know :) . Now that I've seen more of him, I honestly think he's one of the best interviewers on the platform. Along with Rich of course!
Jack Washington 100% agree. I actually wrote him on IG, told him basically the same thing you just said and in Tom fashion he wrote me back! I actually listened to him every morning for about 10 months while trying to lose weight, end result was I lost close to 90lbs by following his advice on the show. My life is a complete 180 directly because of him (and my hard work), I’m definitely sold!
donv That's so cool that he replied to you. He's really relatable as a person, and I think that helps because when people seem too innately impressive it's easy to attribute their success to them being naturally superior. I can't believe you lost nearly 90lbs! That's incredible. (I had to convert to stone cos I'm English haha) Seriously though, that's inspiring man. You have any particular episodes to recommend? (You can't choose Goggins - too easy 😆)
The first time i knew and heard about Tom Bilyeu, i wasn't impressed too, didn't follow him/his channels, but later on he's become one of my favorite inspirational mentors :)
I experienced depression and anxiety and it was hard but I realized that I need it in order to gradually have clarity on what I really need to do and also to reboot and restart changing my mindset, habits and goals. I feel more alive now doing what I love, taking extra care of my health and loving my family more and creating new simple business ventures. Burnout,depression and anxiety is not a mental illness but a sign to change a new mindset to create a more meaningful life liv9ng to your possible highest potential. Thank you for this amazing interview with Tom.
This was the first time I've seem Tom being interviewed. I watch his podcast weekly, but now I have an even deeper respect for this man. I have to get my ass in gear! I want to drop 25 Lbs. and get to the gym! These guys are trying to change the world. Talk about feeling weak...
Tom is one of the most honest people I've ever seen. What's cooler than that is he is so honest with himself. Something we should all aim towards if we are going to become successful.
Wow, great job Rich Roll!! Nobody interviewed Tom this way. I heard many new things about Tom and his life unfolding. Tom expressed the idea that you need to form your self-esteem around something that is actionable rather than you are born with. But here he framed it really well and drove it to home for me.
Tom Bilyeu is one of my go to leaders. He makes sense. You can tell he puts in the time before he does a presentation. Some of the top leaders don't anymore... I'm a HUGE fan!!!!
Outstanding Work, Rich Roll!! I have listened to almost all Tom's interviews. I have heard his story over and over again. I still can't fathom the way his life unraveled. It is truly amazing! Rich, in my opinion your performance by far was the best. You slowed Tom's story down with thought-provoking questions and uncovered details I never heard from him before. Thank you so much for bringing it in a big way in this podcast!
man this is life changing, so authentic so raw so moving, so pratical. these kind of interviews should be taught in school. i love tom and this interview made me realise why i love him so much. Such a great and inspirational teacher.
THANKS! I was so wrapped up into listening to this interview that I literally poured my almond milk straight into my protein powder, ruined 1.97lbs ....... 🤦🏼♂️ Two of my favorite dudes right here. Would I do this again all day
Absolutely. We are so fortunate to have mentors like this to help put together the details and difficulties of life. When the student is ready the teacher will appear. @@THENOWCO
Love Tom and Lisa Bilyeu!! Thanks for bringing him on, Rich Roll. 👊 The long format is great. It's a metaphor for entrepreneurship, health, etc... sticking with something and "persistence" to the end, doing the marathon and not the sprint.
“Your life is not some future event. When you invest in the journey and have a clear direction of where you want to go without focusing on arriving there - and fall in love with the process and the work entailed with getting there - you’ll gild your life with meaning and satisfaction.” -Rich Roll This showed up in my FB memories feed this week....from 2016!
Love Tom. "Those people" shaped my life and reshaped my perspective too. Something just clicked in my soul. I've just regained a vision and a purpose. Thank you so much for this interview. Love Tom B.
I am a learner. Those are sequential words. Which will be my internal compass to guide me back to my goals so that I can get out of my own way. Growth mindset is key. Thank you Tom! ✨🙏✨
2 hours and twenty-two minutes so I can rewind repeatedly to hear my own truth: Tom celebrating his knowing, "I've got fucqin' skills." "I've got fucqin' skills." "I've got fucqin' skills." No apologies. Yes! All for Sacred Service. Clarity is power. Love this.
Brilliant stuff. I've been stuck in a rut for 3 days and this podcast really gives me power to get back up. Tom's way of thinking is relatable but he has everything so thought out it's scary, and Rich's questions are exactly what I wanna hear...
Here’s a new name for it… “Impact Theory Journalism” Tom has mastered the lens on body-health and mental well-being . Anything less than an hour is not complete in my opinion. If the interest is not there in the first 5 mins it’s all over red rover.. Ads are another thing put them all in the back 1/4? If you are devoted to the theme of the interview the listener will go through to end . Notice I didn’t say viewer here .. Tom explains so well and fluently that you don’t look for face value explanations.. if you get my drift.. Keep going Tom !!
Rich, thank you for this podcast. I found you only a few months ago and I have gained so much wisdom! Tom- If I could resonate with anyone's journey more it is yours. I was brought into business in the same way you were, they took me in to a role over my head because I am young and cheaper then the next guy. Sitting on calls and saying "goodbye" as my only input has been my year in a nutshell. It has made me happy to be here non the less because I have the same drive you do, I still come back everyday and work as hard as I can no matter what. I believe your statement "You get to choose what you do tomorrow" and I know that what I am doing now will only be of benefit in the future. Mindset is key. I cant thank you enough for coming into my day today!
I actually noticed something very fixed about Tom's mindset. And that is growth!😅 I'll explain. Even the breathing exercises he does are for alertness, he doesn't seem to calm down anytime. We should know that workaholics are also addicted. It can be healthy. Think about that this way. If every business and everything that's human culture is growing all the time what would our planet look like in the future? It would be so pollute that we would ruin it. Hey, that's what's actually happening right know, because a lot of people don't know when to stop, to just lay down somewhere nice in nature and listen to the wind. We forgot about enjoying the moment without always chasing to achieve and accomplish something. Thinking like this is actually very selfish. Sometimes the biggest help to yourself and the planet is knowing when to sit still and enjoy your serotonin, put the dopamine on pause for a short time...Tom should sometimes try to do breathing exercises where the exhale is longer than inhale, to calm down and enjoy before his wife leaves him and go with someone to sail the world 😂
Tom is awesome like always, but the rough reality is that without money there is no way you are able to grow, create, produce, publish, promote and let the word out there about whatever dream & products you want to put out there, YES is important to do what you love as it is ALSO very important to have the mental space of not worrying about bills, debt and money in general in order to use time wisely in things you really love.
So amazing how we were walked through the entire Bilyeu childhood all the way up to the one and only Tom Bilyeu now. That whole process of building the mindset was phenomenal. And Rich Roll was right, Tom ended with such powerful story and advice. Great take away from this interview. Truly enjoyable. Thank you Rich Roll and Tom. P/S: Hoping Tom would publish that masterpiece one day.
Really solid and enjoyable podcast! Tom is in my group of mentors and always brings it. I feel fortunate to be living in an age of such forward thinking people who I feel supported by even if I don't know them personally.
This man is focused. Buddhists talk of focusing on what you are doing now. He also has the courage to self-examine. And he is accepts change - even embraces it.
Both of you are my idols.- The quote ''I 'll keep up when others quit'' and ''let the pain be your guide in life, just could not be more truth and value to those words. Thank you for sharing all of that and inspiring others-cultivating a culture.
Not sure when Tom became my favorite person to listen to but this one is an example of why! He makes me want to be a better person on a deeper level, I appreciate his intellectual honesty and his effort to spread his willingness to learn... Thank you!
Tom is on FIRE throughout, and Rich poses thoughtful questions throughout. 54:55 "Work your ass off to get very good at something you care deeply about that allows you to serve not only yourself but other people." (Tom's definition of fulfillment) The convo about the pros and cons of living forever was gold. Thanks to both of you for such an energized, dynamic discussion that sparks insights and inspiration all over the damn place. Two thumbs up!
it's encouraging to hear he didn't like pain and naturally turned away from it. I think this is a natural thing but it's good to know that, with grit and determination, you can move towards your source of pain and grow from it. This is how you overcome emotional weakness.
As a molecular biologist and PhD Pharmacy student. Valuing how each of our body cells work smartly in order to maintain a healthy body is the is the same with how each of us human being need to value how we should work learn and work smartly with each other by making healthy connections so we can build a healthy and happy community. Money is an energy and follows when we are fulfilled with what we do collectively. Thank you for this amazing video. I learn a lot being a new entrepreneur. I believe that creating a personal core value is very important. What we see and experience in the outside world are reflections of your internal value.
Tom is truly an astute and self aware human. I also think he is somewhat OCD but he has made it work for him. Rich is really beyond reproach. He himself is self aware and always steers the conversation in the absolute perfect direction. Awesome fucking interview
Rich is a great interviewer. Very calming and introspective. Can't wait to see Tom speak this weekend at the MV reunion. Love his show. May be my favorites on youtube. So much inspiration! Also, I would like to know the name of the comedian that he was referring to.
Amazing interview! I really appreciate it when men are open with what they’re struggling with- found it very manly and wish for more men to feel confident do the same!
I'm feeling even stronger unrequited love for Tom now. Didn't even know he was on Joe Rogan till this podcast. Fantastic podcast Rich I've wanted to fully hear his story for a while.
I read Carol Dwecks book. I realized I had a fixed mindset. I believed I was intelligent and deep down I had that fear that I’m not. So it meant I don’t have to put much effort into learning and if something was hard it meant my fear was right. It made my life much more happier to change the mindset and focus on putting effort into something instead. Its much more powerful to believe I can evolve and learn almost anything if I work hard enough instead of believing in my god given intelligence I did nothing for and that cannot change.
These two are the best. What they are able to convey that makes sense and speaks to how we as humans react/respond and take in what is life, is fantastic information for healing and growth.
To see & listen to two of my favourite podcasters and interviewers together like this is magic. Thank you! Rich, you ask such excellent, questions. And Tom, it was very interesting to hear more about your background.
I want change, the bigger the better! I am ultra ambitious. Work at a hard thing and be really good at it is success. Not trying is failure. How I feel about myself is the ultimate criterion for whether living a good life or not.
Tom keeps refering to himself as barely average but I beg to defer, the man literary veers on genius in my view. And Rich Roll too is super informed and definitely king of metacognition. The duo are quite easily the 2 smartest people in the podcast industry....eloquent as f*ck! Keep them coming guys, we're extremely grateful for the wisdom and free strategies, it's going to accelerate growth curves on entire generations! It changed me for sure since 2 years ago during the pandemic when I first landed on your podcasts!
54:55 - "the thing that will make me love my life the most, is to do the thing that are fulfilling, and I think fulfillment has a _very_ specific *_universal formula_* : work your ass off to get very good at something that you care deeply about that allows you to serve not only yourself but other people" > *_Techne_* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techne often translated as "craftsmanship".
Wow. I have been watching Impact Theory for some time now, but this is the first time I have watched Tom be interviewed. Living up to the name, this has gotta be the most impactful conversation I have listened to. It has made me re-evaluate my life and mindset and to focus on creating the life that I can be proud to lead.
That is really true for me the one hour conversation is good for me. I take it when i walk, run, cook, clean the house, drive all of that. In one hour you can get the best out of the heroes that show up for the podcasts.

I actually listened to him every morning for about 10 months while trying to lose weight, end result was I lost close to 90lbs by following his advice on the show. My life is a complete 180 directly because of him (and my hard work), I’m definitely sold!
donv That's so cool that he replied to you. He's really relatable as a person, and I think that helps because when people seem too innately impressive it's easy to attribute their success to them being naturally superior. I can't believe you lost nearly 90lbs! That's incredible. (I had to convert to stone cos I'm English haha) Seriously though, that's inspiring man. You have any particular episodes to recommend? (You can't choose Goggins - too easy 😆)
The first time i knew and heard about Tom Bilyeu, i wasn't impressed too, didn't follow him/his channels, but later on he's become one of my favorite inspirational mentors :)
I experienced depression and anxiety and it was hard but I realized that I need it in order to gradually have clarity on what I really need to do and also to reboot and restart changing my mindset, habits and goals. I feel more alive now doing what I love, taking extra care of my health and loving my family more and creating new simple business ventures. Burnout,depression and anxiety is not a mental illness but a sign to change a new mindset to create a more meaningful life liv9ng to your possible highest potential. Thank you for this amazing interview with Tom.
Tom has reached a level of confidence that I would like to reach. He seems so comfortable and really belives in himself.
Got here accidentally and this is the most meaningful and enlightening podcast I've seen.
There are no accidents in a quantum world:)
@@spiritualworkout4544 ditto, tee hee.
They made a good point. When the content is good, an hour isn't even enough. I'm happy with 3 on a good podcast.
This was the first time I've seem Tom being interviewed. I watch his podcast weekly, but now I have an even deeper respect for this man. I have to get my ass in gear! I want to drop 25 Lbs. and get to the gym! These guys are trying to change the world. Talk about feeling weak...
I have an interest 14 years ago..Today it is my PASSION!! I can't think of doing anything different!
Very comforting to know I'm nowhere near human limitation. Love that💯👑
Passion described as getting so good at a skill you can use it as an extension of yourself is a great explanation.
This conversation is worth a university degree.
I second that! :)
This whole conversation is worth a million dollars!
Only if YOU apply the principals to, on, for yourself. Otherwise it's just entertainment.

Tom is one of the most honest people I've ever seen. What's cooler than that is he is so honest with himself. Something we should all aim towards if we are going to become successful.
Wow, great job Rich Roll!! Nobody interviewed Tom this way. I heard many new things about Tom and his life unfolding. Tom expressed the idea that you need to form your self-esteem around something that is actionable rather than you are born with. But here he framed it really well and drove it to home for me.
This talk was unexpectedly invaluable. I had seen of Tom interview others, but I didn't know his story. Thank you both!
Tom Bilyeu is one of my go to leaders. He makes sense. You can tell he puts in the time before he does a presentation. Some of the top leaders don't anymore... I'm a HUGE fan!!!!
Now, this guy is a genius! He invented authenticity. Amazing mindset!
😂
I can't imagine Tom as a comedian!
Outstanding Work, Rich Roll!!
I have listened to almost all Tom's interviews. I have heard his story over and over again. I still can't fathom the way his life unraveled. It is truly amazing!
Rich, in my opinion your performance by far was the best. You slowed Tom's story down with thought-provoking questions and uncovered details I never heard from him before.
Thank you so much for bringing it in a big way in this podcast!
How have they changed you? As a person and in life?
His sacrifice and dedication inspires me for all he does for humanity thank you
I totally agree with Rich on this statement "You didn't hit rock bottom, but still you look for opportunities to grow and that is fascinating"
man this is life changing, so authentic so raw so moving, so pratical. these kind of interviews should be taught in school. i love tom and this interview made me realise why i love him so much. Such a great and inspirational teacher.
Thanks for my next two hours guys ! I am excited !!!!
Tom’s interviews are the only hour plus interviews that can hold my attention. They are just so compelling. He’s the man! Thanks for this -
Tom is just talking at a level that I can just about 'reach' if I stretch and tiptoe hard and high enough. He's a great communicator.
THANKS! I was so wrapped up into listening to this interview that I literally poured my almond milk straight into my protein powder, ruined 1.97lbs ....... 🤦🏼♂️ Two of my favorite dudes right here. Would I do this again all day
Sign from the universe. Shoulda had a quest bar instead 😂
haha the power of this episode
Absolutely. We are so fortunate to have mentors like this to help put together the details and difficulties of life. When the student is ready the teacher will appear.

@@unrealoneill Well said
Least it was worth the attention 🙌🙏
"The joy of quitting" that hit me so hard. I'm soooooo close to being able to do that. Thank you for all the amazing content
Hey! If you see this how's it going?
Tom has changed my life through Impact Theory and now through this...
Wow I like listening to Tom getting interviewed for a change this was good
I truly love Tom's story...I deeply admire that man...thumbs up to this interview...
Mn bbbb bmb no m me mom bbbloobmnlo Ed
Love Tom and Lisa Bilyeu!! Thanks for bringing him on, Rich Roll. 👊 The long format is great. It's a metaphor for entrepreneurship, health, etc... sticking with something and "persistence" to the end, doing the marathon and not the sprint.
Now, this is community! I see you in the comments section for time and again. Cheers on! Happy impacting!
@@koroglurustem1722 A great place to be, learn, grow. Thank you, and all the best to you! 🙂🤜🤛
That long haul is where many riches are hidden. Great metaphor.
@@THENOWCO So true. Hard work, but worth it to stay with it. Have a good one!
“Your life is not some future event. When you invest in the journey and have a clear direction of where you want to go without focusing on arriving there - and fall in love with the process and the work entailed with getting there - you’ll gild your life with meaning and satisfaction.” -Rich Roll
This showed up in my FB memories feed this week....from 2016!
Love Tom. "Those people" shaped my life and reshaped my perspective too. Something just clicked in my soul. I've just regained a vision and a purpose. Thank you so much for this interview. Love Tom B.
Blew my mind this morning. Tom is always on point.
By far my favorite interview of Tom Bilyeu! Fack this guy is brilliant!
I am a learner. Those are sequential words. Which will be my internal compass to guide me back to my goals so that I can get out of my own way. Growth mindset is key. Thank you Tom! ✨🙏✨
Stay disciplined because consistency is key. Good luck
@@THENOWCO I appreciate that! Thank you!
2 hours and twenty-two minutes so I can rewind repeatedly to hear my own truth:
Tom celebrating his knowing, "I've got fucqin' skills." "I've got fucqin' skills." "I've got fucqin' skills."
No apologies. Yes! All for Sacred Service. Clarity is power. Love this.
Brilliant stuff. I've been stuck in a rut for 3 days and this podcast really gives me power to get back up. Tom's way of thinking is relatable but he has everything so thought out it's scary, and Rich's questions are exactly what I wanna hear...
Here’s a new name for it…
“Impact Theory Journalism”
Tom has mastered the lens on body-health and mental well-being . Anything less than an hour is not complete in my opinion.
If the interest is not there in the first 5 mins it’s all over red rover..
Ads are another thing put them all in the back 1/4? If you are devoted to the theme of the interview the listener will go through to end .
Notice I didn’t say viewer here .. Tom explains so well and fluently that you don’t look for face value explanations.. if you get my drift..
Keep going Tom !!
Rich, thank you for this podcast. I found you only a few months ago and I have gained so much wisdom!
Tom- If I could resonate with anyone's journey more it is yours. I was brought into business in the same way you were, they took me in to a role over my head because I am young and cheaper then the next guy. Sitting on calls and saying "goodbye" as my only input has been my year in a nutshell. It has made me happy to be here non the less because I have the same drive you do, I still come back everyday and work as hard as I can no matter what. I believe your statement "You get to choose what you do tomorrow" and I know that what I am doing now will only be of benefit in the future. Mindset is key. I cant thank you enough for coming into my day today!
guys thank you! just simply thank you!!!!
I actually noticed something very fixed about Tom's mindset. And that is growth!😅 I'll explain. Even the breathing exercises he does are for alertness, he doesn't seem to calm down anytime. We should know that workaholics are also addicted. It can be healthy. Think about that this way. If every business and everything that's human culture is growing all the time what would our planet look like in the future? It would be so pollute that we would ruin it. Hey, that's what's actually happening right know, because a lot of people don't know when to stop, to just lay down somewhere nice in nature and listen to the wind. We forgot about enjoying the moment without always chasing to achieve and accomplish something. Thinking like this is actually very selfish. Sometimes the biggest help to yourself and the planet is knowing when to sit still and enjoy your serotonin, put the dopamine on pause for a short time...Tom should sometimes try to do breathing exercises where the exhale is longer than inhale, to calm down and enjoy before his wife leaves him and go with someone to sail the world 😂
Tom is awesome like always, but the rough reality is that without money there is no way you are able to grow, create, produce, publish, promote and let the word out there about whatever dream & products you want to put out there, YES is important to do what you love as it is ALSO very important to have the mental space of not worrying about bills, debt and money in general in order to use time wisely in things you really love.
One if the very best interviews ever
Hands down. One of the best things I've watched on TH-cam.
So amazing how we were walked through the entire Bilyeu childhood all the way up to the one and only Tom Bilyeu now. That whole process of building the mindset was phenomenal. And Rich Roll was right, Tom ended with such powerful story and advice. Great take away from this interview. Truly enjoyable. Thank you Rich Roll and Tom. P/S: Hoping Tom would publish that masterpiece one day.
I absolutely love Tom. He's so inspiring. Such an incredible human being.
One of the best interviews I’ve listened to lately. The determination and ambition of Tom is just inspiring.
Really solid and enjoyable podcast! Tom is in my group of mentors and always brings it. I feel fortunate to be living in an age of such forward thinking people who I feel supported by even if I don't know them personally.
He's a very articulate man.
This man is focused. Buddhists talk of focusing on what you are doing now. He also has the courage to self-examine. And he is accepts change - even embraces it.
2 of my favorite people!!! WAHOOOOOO!!!! Thank you!! Can't wait to watch this one! #growthmindset #RRP #impacttheory #justdo
My thoughts exactly!
I agree!
Both of you are my idols.- The quote ''I 'll keep up when others quit'' and ''let the pain be your guide in life, just could not be more truth and value to those words. Thank you for sharing all of that and inspiring others-cultivating a culture.
Two of my favorite ppl together!!!! Thanks guys. 🥰
Not sure when Tom became my favorite person to listen to but this one is an example of why! He makes me want to be a better person on a deeper level, I appreciate his intellectual honesty and his effort to spread his willingness to learn... Thank you!
Tom is unstoppable!!!
Four hours worth of great content crammed into two hours of actual interview secondary to Tom talking so fast!
Really good interview. I'm 60. Still learning, still acquiring skills. Just never thought of it in that way.
To me, these mentors are the Supermen of our time. Thank you so much for sharing your content!! :)
Tom is on FIRE throughout, and Rich poses thoughtful questions throughout. 54:55 "Work your ass off to get very good at something you care deeply about that allows you to serve not only yourself but other people." (Tom's definition of fulfillment)
The convo about the pros and cons of living forever was gold.
Thanks to both of you for such an energized, dynamic discussion that sparks insights and inspiration all over the damn place. Two thumbs up!
it's encouraging to hear he didn't like pain and naturally turned away from it. I think this is a natural thing but it's good to know that, with grit and determination, you can move towards your source of pain and grow from it. This is how you overcome emotional weakness.
As a molecular biologist and PhD Pharmacy student. Valuing how each of our body cells work smartly in order to maintain a healthy body is the is the same with how each of us human being need to value how we should work learn and work smartly with each other by making healthy connections so we can build a healthy and happy community. Money is an energy and follows when we are fulfilled with what we do collectively. Thank you for this amazing video. I learn a lot being a new entrepreneur. I believe that creating a personal core value is very important. What we see and experience in the outside world are reflections of your internal value.
Tom is truly an astute and self aware human. I also think he is somewhat OCD but he has made it work for him. Rich is really beyond reproach. He himself is self aware and always steers the conversation in the absolute perfect direction. Awesome fucking interview
Rich is a great interviewer. Very calming and introspective.
Can't wait to see Tom speak this weekend at the MV reunion. Love his show. May be my favorites on youtube. So much inspiration!
Also, I would like to know the name of the comedian that he was referring to.
Same here... I will watch Impact Theory for hours as there's so much that's shared and so much you learn from the interviews/discussions
We need to teach our kids this. Imagine what the world would be like then. We Can change who we are.
Amazing interview! I really appreciate it when men are open with what they’re struggling with- found it very manly and wish for more men to feel confident do the same!
AMEN!
Finally I get the story. Amazing and inspiring. OMG This is gold! 🙏
I'm feeling even stronger unrequited love for Tom now.
Didn't even know he was on Joe Rogan till this podcast. Fantastic podcast Rich I've wanted to fully hear his story for a while.
Nigel Thornberry hahahaha yes
I read Carol Dwecks book. I realized I had a fixed mindset. I believed I was intelligent and deep down I had that fear that I’m not. So it meant I don’t have to put much effort into learning and if something was hard it meant my fear was right. It made my life much more happier to change the mindset and focus on putting effort into something instead. Its much more powerful to believe I can evolve and learn almost anything if I work hard enough instead of believing in my god given intelligence I did nothing for and that cannot change.
@Rich Roll your podcasts are helping a lot mentally, I feel like I am doing therapy.
Thank you for what you are doing, trully.
These two are the best. What they are able to convey that makes sense and speaks to how we as humans react/respond and take in what is life, is fantastic information for healing and growth.
rewatching again because it's so good. Also sharing with others
To see & listen to two of my favourite podcasters and interviewers together like this is magic. Thank you! Rich, you ask such excellent, questions. And Tom, it was very interesting to hear more about your background.
I want change, the bigger the better! I am ultra ambitious. Work at a hard thing and be really good at it is success. Not trying is failure. How I feel about myself is the ultimate criterion for whether living a good life or not.
Tom keeps refering to himself as barely average but I beg to defer, the man literary veers on genius in my view. And Rich Roll too is super informed and definitely king of metacognition. The duo are quite easily the 2 smartest people in the podcast industry....eloquent as f*ck! Keep them coming guys, we're extremely grateful for the wisdom and free strategies, it's going to accelerate growth curves on entire generations! It changed me for sure since 2 years ago during the pandemic when I first landed on your podcasts!
54:55 - "the thing that will make me love my life the most, is to do the thing that are fulfilling, and I think fulfillment has a _very_ specific *_universal formula_* : work your ass off to get very good at something that you care deeply about that allows you to serve not only yourself but other people" > *_Techne_* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techne often translated as "craftsmanship".
Wow. I have been watching Impact Theory for some time now, but this is the first time I have watched Tom be interviewed. Living up to the name, this has gotta be the most impactful conversation I have listened to. It has made me re-evaluate my life and mindset and to focus on creating the life that I can be proud to lead.
Thank you for unpacking your interview prep process a bit, Tom. You both inspire me!
That is really true for me the one hour conversation is good for me. I take it when i walk, run, cook, clean the house, drive all of that. In one hour you can get the best out of the heroes that show up for the podcasts.
"I'm so full of myself, there is no room for food".
