He recently authored a book titled "Think This, Not That," which explores mindsets that can lead to breakthroughs in life. Episode Summary: Greg welcomes Dr. Josh Axe for part two of a profound discourse on personal growth, fulfilling one's potential, and the overarching importance of adopting the right mindset. This episode promises to unravel the enigmatic threads connecting beliefs, accomplishments, and the essence of a life well-lived, instilled with purpose and meaningful relationships. Josh delves into the concept of 'telos,' a Greek term for ultimate purpose, while sharing a touching narrative about his grandfather's life. Through this poignant story, he imparts the crucial distinction between achieving success through material accomplishments versus fostering robust, impactful relationships. Greg and Josh converge on the notion that at the core of truly transformative mind shifts lies the relentless pursuit of truth, emphasizing that uncovering falsehoods can unlock barriers to personal growth. Key Takeaways: Relationships should be prioritized over achievements, with a focus not just on their importance but also discerning which relationships matter most. True success is not measured by what one accumulates or achieves, but by who they become and the relationships they foster. The single most potent mindset shift is the commitment to relentlessly uncovering truth, unearthing deeper realities beneath surface appearances. Essentialism teaches the elimination of non-essentials to reveal what's fundamentally important: relationships. The courage to seek, speak, and act upon truth paves the way for significant life upgrades and authentic self-realization. Notable Quotes: "Success is not what I accomplish. It's who I become." "The best way to find truth is by looking at who has the best results towards the good of the world.” “If you just try and accomplish something for the sake of accomplishing it, you could hurt feelings. You could ruin relationships." Resources: Website: draxe.com Book: "Think This, Not That" by Dr. Josh Axe Join my weekly newsletter. Learn more about my books and courses.
