Summary
In this week's Thursday Throwdown, I follow up on episode 100 with Ryan Holiday and his profound insights on how to approach life as a student. As men and fathers, we want to believe we have everything figured out, but in reality that's impossible. That's why it's important to drop our egos and admit to ourselves, "I don't know everything, but I'm going to learn as much as I can." For all the links and the show notes CLICK HERE.
