I'm gonna show you how great I am.

Yes, let's have tiny tower.

I just want to say from the bottom of me heart, I'd like to take this chance to How to Take Over the World. This is Ben Wilson. Welcome to this end notes episode on Mr. Beast. Today I'll be talking about some more of my takeaways from my conversation with him, as well as some more takeaways from just knowing him and being able to observe how he works.

I'll start off with my biggest takeaway because that is something that I want everyone to hear.

So that will be for the free version.

And then I'll go into my history with Mr. Beast, how we came to know each other.

And then I'll go through some more of my takeaways.

So to start off, my biggest takeaway, the thing that I'm thinking the most about after having done this and having watched it a few times now is obsession.

And specifically, how Mr. Beast approaches obsession reminds me a lot of others.

You know, Mr. Beast himself talked a little bit about addiction.

but I just like to give in to my impulses and like, for whatever reason, work always pulls me back.

And so like if, you know, when I literally, this is a perfect example. When I first played

Canton with one of my friends, he introduced it to me. We played for 36 hours straight. Like, well, he didn't, but we played for like 10 hours and then he wanted to go to bed. So I got another

three people to play with me, played overnight. And I got those same people to come back in

the morning at like 9 a.m. We played for like 10 hours. And then we, I cycled through like 16

different people before I finally crashed. And like, sure, I could have played for three hours, gone to bed, a reasonable time,

worked all day, then played at night.

But it's like that doesn't, for whatever reason, that doesn't work for me.

When I want to do something, I just want to do it.
