Welcome to the Science of Success with your host, Matt Bodner.

Welcome to the Science of Success. I'm your host, Matt Bodner. I'm an entrepreneur and investor

in Nashville, Tennessee, and I'm obsessed with the mindset of success and the psychology of

performance. I've read hundreds of books, conducted countless hours of research and study,

and I'm going to take you on a journey into the human mind and what makes peak performers tick,

with a focus on always having our discussions rooted in psychological research and scientific fact,

not opinion. In this episode, we discuss

pride, why it may not be the deadly sin it's often cracked up to be. We dig into how

research defines pride, examine the critical distinction between self-esteem and narcissism,

the deep importance of being able to accept criticism, and look at the difference between

strategies of dominance and

strategies of prestige with Dr. Jessica Tracy. The science of success continues to grow with more

than 725,000 downloads, listeners in over 100 countries hitting number one new and noteworthy and

more. I get listener comments and emails all the time asking me, Matt, how do you organize and

remember all this incredible information? A lot of our listeners are curious about how I keep track of all the

incredible knowledge I get from reading hundreds of books, interviewing amazing experts,

listening to awesome podcasts, and more. Because of that, we created an epic resource just for you,

a detailed guide called How to Organize and Remember Everything. And you can get it

completely for free by texting the word smarter to the number 4-4-2-2. Again, it's a guide we created

called How to Organize and Remember Everything. All you have to do to get it is to text the word

smarter, that's S-M-A-R, to the number 4-4-2-2-2. Or go to scienceof-success.co, that scienceofsuccess.co, and put in your email. In our previous episode, we discussed what Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Stephen Hawking, and others considered to be the single greatest threat to humanity. Why death is not a binary event that makes you transition from being alive or

dead at a specific moment in time. We ask if you would spend $1,000 on a chance to live forever.
