Summary

Every single one of us has genius inside of us – some lying dormant for years and even decades. And, with our greatest potential trapped deep beneath the surface of our day-to-day lives, we live as Thoreau famously said, “quiet lives of desperation.” I know from personal experience how difficult and deflating that can be.

My guest today, former rocket scientist and law professor, Ozan Varol, is on the podcast today to talk about how to unlock and awaken the genius buried deep within ourselves. We also talk about the power of going what he refers to as “off-menu,” finding more awe in our lives, the death or our former selves and the birth of a new man, why we all need to exercise a bit more skeptical curiosity, and how to become extraordinary men.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Leaving a tenured position in academia
  • If you don’t like the available options, create a new one
  • Know when its time to change course
  • Most people don’t know what they want
  • What served us well in the past won’t necessarily serve us well in the future
  • Don’t get stuck in the self-reflection process
  • Learning from failures
  • Don’t compare your beginning to someone else’s end
  • The importance of your inner journey
  • Identifying what makes you unique
