i needed this, i lost everything many times over, and starting again from scratch, no friends no social life nothing, been taking losses for years, hopefully everyone reading this and myself, lets make it!

"When you fit in, you have internal conflict... because you're not being 100% you" 👊❤️

That pause from Alex at the start right after Chris's words was powerful. Like he was re-living and remembering all the people who had doubted him.

“For me, I was more miserable trying to make everyone else happy than I am now with everyone else unhappy.” - That hits hard.

High achievers are lonely for a simple reason: Everybody is jealous/envious of your success. People want you to succeed but not more than them.

“Reminder that if you want to be exceptional you are going to be different from everyone else that’s what makes you exceptional . You can’t fit in and also be exceptional both are uncomfortable. When you fit in you have internal conflict because you are not 100% you. When you are exceptional you have external conflict because everyone sees you as different. PICK one. When your friends start to say you have changed remember that’s because they do not know how to say you have grown.”

People always talk about wanting to see you achieve the things you want not until you do and suddenly they have a problem with you.

There's always a price to pay in cutting a different path

Those are words I live by: I believe the vast majority of people has the POTENTIAL to be exceptional at any given field if they put REAL EFFORT and -SACRIFICE- into it But the vast majority is also not willing at all to take those trade offs. Would you be Usain Bolt, Neil Pearth or Michael Phelps if you really gave it all? Probably not. But how would you or anyone ever know if you would if you tried, without trying? This thinking helped me and keep helping me majorly in life, next week im gonna go on stage four different times: 2 times on drums, I only did it once before, 1st as backing vocals, 1st as bassist, and possibly even one more on the drums I accredit a very big part of this to the mentality and of course putting in the effort Feels great to be alive and see the fruits of hard work, lets gooooooo 🔥

Absolutely true! Makes me sad that people think improvement comes from comfort. Half way through 2019 I became my childhood dream of a professional knifemaker. It’s been nothing but challenges, failures and discomfort for almost 5years but I’m happy!

DUDE!!!! That PAUSE who make ALEX in the beginning?! Its INSANE and SPECTACULAR in PERSONALITY, CHARACTER, AUTENTICITY, OWNERSHIP and much more 🤯🤯🤯 its CRAZY....The BEST DUET OF ALL THE WORLD 🌎

Most people will distract you from your mission. Everyone is going their own ways, sometimes they're going nowhere and happy to drag you down into the bucket...conscientiously or subconsciously, it will happen around people if they aren't where you want to go.

Hormozi is one hell of a wordsmith!

These two have good chemistry and I always learn something new just listening to them chat.

You're lonely because you sacrificed the time to build relationships to build skills.

Incredible episode, thank you!

Really insightful discussion on the loneliness of high achievers. It's often overlooked that strategic networking can alleviate that isolation without compromising productivity; connecting with others facing similar challenges can create a support system that also serves as a sounding board for new ideas.

It's a balance. If you are a people pleaser, then yes, the temptation is go the completely opposite end of the spectrum. We do want to give of ourselves in a relationship; fulfillment comes through that. So yes, being yourself 100% is a great goal, but you will still hope that there are those that love that 100% you.

Thank you for this video.

These seconds of silence in the beginning were worth it

Tanks Guys!

Wow - love the content

simply extremely relatable

The dangerous part about going rogue is to be self reflected enough to still keep social feedback in mind so you don't become a lunatic. Fine line!

such an underrated content

See the good for you..a failure or rejection always makes you more greatest and makes the win more joyful.. It's is the growth mindset that should drive you not the failure or rejection,,you don't care about the byproduct and feel satisfied by putting in and eventually you are attracting the supreme energy by doing it so you eventually get the materialistic pleasures..

amazing content

With the number of idiots out there is better to be alone sadly it is hard to find people that dont act like idiots ... i eat healthy most people make fun of that ... i live frugal and invest my money again most peop0le make fun of this while they are broke ....

Great video

Alex's take is so relatable here! No friends or love can bring unlimited joy and success. Fake friends and fake love will bring depression, if not suicide.

Lovely stuff chris, you've changed my life ❤. keep going brother

The feeling of rejection when you are alone and have that sad thought, just take it casually as a though and be fearless bcz you did something to make yourself accountable.

Love your p.cast

That’s true about being different and all. Tbh I just like people much to be away from them. 😂 I have people who know ME and people who know me just enough.

amazing

7:07 YES

We are all exceptional in our own ways. We are all the same, yet we are all different. It's not about fitting in, but about being grounded in being yourself.

"But not all changes mean growth, in my opinion."

3-4 yeard ago i left my job , without any plan I am depressed till now But instarted my business and now in earn 3 time amount i earned in my last job , and will by my first home next year But i feel depressed and stress all the time

...the alternative was 'i didn't want to llive anymore'...

I don’t know Chris. Nobody says that stuff in eulogies even if they were predictable and normal. The mortality framework is mainly to assess your priorities not to hate on everyday folks.

I use to do a game with myself way back in the 90’s when people went to night clubs and danced and got layed . I would call it “ getting binned (aka rejected ) in 10 minutes. I would time myself 10 mins or get a mate to time me and I would approach a girl I liked the look of and just go up and talk to her and ask her for a dance 💃. It’s a facing rejection and it makes you more mentally stronger. I would get rejected 2 or 3 times but would get a bite on girl 4 or 5 and I would get that dance 💃 and al lot of the time I’d get much more. I never got to 10 rejections. This is such a good adrenaline rush and great for your confidence. Rejection does not kill you it makes you stronger . Women like confident men and walking up and talking to them makes you attractive to them even if your not there type they appreciate it because you have the balls to go over and approach her. I remember just being yo scared to approach a women because of the feeling of getting rejected. And one night I approached this chick and yes she was cool and I didn’t get any where with her but I felt so fking proud of myself just by going over to talk to her I was buzzing. And that was it I just I was hooked win loose . I would highly recommend it to young lads who are scared of approaching a women . Rejections won’t kill you and hey we all die anyway. Hope this Canto I’ve just typed helps someone 👍👍

I’m fine being lonely. It’s far more peaceful.

Change doesn’t necessarily mean growth. That’s a huge assumption.

I haven't watched the video, but of course yes.. it's all due to unreliability and time for most cases.

Family and friends always used to be supportive until my networth was over $5million. Jelousy came qhen they saw my new house and sports cars.

I like how this dude is a muscleman wearing a kid hat speaking like a scholar

True loneliness is when nobody co-operates with you, nobody acknowledges you, nobody visits you. When you are always wallpaper in everyone elses existence. Not everybody in this place is treated the same. Meritocracy pales before Appearances...

🎯

School gives us the false reality that friends make you “happy and popular”. As you become older, you realize seclusion is better than inclusion when achieving goals unless the ones around you are on the same path.

Why does this make me sad?

Any high achievers want to weigh in?

I am feeling lonely right now

😂😂😂 sorry, I laughed I just.. came here for wisdom cause I am suffering from my emotions over my ambitions.. cause I am building multiple business alone, working 16 hours a day.. almost every day.. and I wanted to listen to Alex, and when this guy reads out Alex’s quotes, and Alex was like so disconnected when camera switches on him, and he was so durpred (zoomed out thinking) I laughed.. love him so much❤😂

There is another subgroup you do not quite mention Those who are completely fine with themselves but others keep insisting they need to be different or that they are antisocial by rejecting the social constructs. I do not agree there is a normal-only people abiding.

Love he mentions old people - feet and shoes. Get some barefoot shoes now. Vivos. Xero’s. Whatever. Honestly, modern footwear is f**king up your feet!

Fucking gold

Are you fighting the world or are you fighting you

Who is the author of 100 days of rejection

Showering twice a day? I would be questioning life too.

Just put in the mind that it is possible to love and work on ourselves without hating others.. Loving and growing ourselves is just not our efforts it is also the effort of shit people who negatively motivated you to be great. Moreover distancing ourselves from others doesn't mean to shit others..

Think of people like crypto- by time someone sees the value in you they have missed the train

like in ancient Greece)) athletes reflect on the philosophy of life

Yes they are, I work with them and was married to one for 20 years. They see the world differently, people are assets/facilities for them.

ALEX IS THE GOAT 🐐👑

Holy shit, i cant see this guy anymore, i literally blocked him and all of his content on any social media, and still i see this hormozi guy....

Entrepreneurship isn’t for the lazy

Holy Shit! This just made my day…..thank you both for just opening your mouths and saying it. 😎🦅💯💴

8:33 did he just say husband? 😮

not true, I'm lonely

This could have gone from good to great if Chris would let the true “interviewee” talk more.

I learned that I don’t like my millionaire bosses and don’t agree with their point of views in life. .. please do never value someone else opinion over your own truth.

A lot of lonely people with bad social skills here think they’re high achievers.

A true high achiever never calls himself/herself high achiever

8:32 ok he said "housemate", thought he said "husband" at first. Not that it matters

People take two showers?
