Summary

We all know there is a formula for success in any venture. We’ve all heard things like, “success leaves clues,” and seen certain people replicate success over and over and over again. And, yet, so many men struggle to create and maintain success on the professional and personal front of their lives. That’s why it’s so important we learn what protocols are required to achieve the results we desire.

Today, I’m joined by philosopher and CEO, Brian Johnson to talk about his theory of Arete and why success on any level is so simple yet so elusive. We talk about what confidence in others actually is and how to develop it, how talent won’t get you all the way to your goals, why intrinsic motivation must be your pursuit, and the Stockdale Paradox and how to use it to your advantage.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Brian’s upcoming book Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential
  • Maintaining trust and integrity gaps
  • What were you doing when you were at your best?
  • Creating micromoments
  • Being grateful for the little things
  • The meaning behind the word “hero”
  • Ancient wisdom, modern science, and practical tools
  • Training heroes
