To lift a grandchild at 80, you need to be in the top 1% for health right now.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1529DMBill Perkins, the investor and gambler famous for planning to spend his money down to zero, told Lewis about the day his doctor, Peter Attia, asked what he wanted from the last decade of his life. Bill said he wanted to carry his grandkids around. Attia told him that meant being in the top 1% for health today.Bill thought he was already in great shape. He admits he was delusional, the same way he was in his late 20s when he bought half a Lamborghini at a charity auction without even liking cars.He puts it bluntly: $300 million at 70 is useless. So build a plan to spend it on what fulfills you while your body can still enjoy it.You will finish this one thinking about your next workout and the trip you keep putting off.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

Inner peace is the room you make in your mind so stress can pass through without running your day.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1999DMYung Pueblo, a writer who meditates two hours every day, told Lewis that you can't buy that kind of calm. Success won't save you if you can't handle what's happening in your own mind.His practice starts on a heavy morning. Be honest that the tension is there, then say it out loud to whoever is closest, the way he tells his wife, “I'm feeling a little heavy today.” Stress you ignore spills onto the people you love as arguments nobody needed.After a 60-day silent retreat beside people with decades of practice, he saw it plainly. Every time he fights change, he creates his own stress.The next time pressure shows up, you can name it out loud and let it breathe until it fades.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Your body may be reliving your worst trauma 50 to 100 times a day without you even noticing.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1540DMDr Joe Dispenza, an author and researcher on mind and body healing, told Lewis that trauma freezes an image in the brain and the feeling follows it into your body. Every replay keeps you in emergency mode, with no energy left for repair.The way out is a new inner event, a moment of gratitude or freedom felt so strongly that you start paying attention to a picture of your future instead. Dr Joe says that emotion signals your genes differently, and he points to research where people reduced inflammation in four days.Your genes are “just a library of potentials,” he says. The feeling you practice decides which ones get read.Next time the old replay starts, try to catch it early and hold a different picture of where you are headed.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

Comparison will convince you you're failing when you're right on time.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1998DMLewis Howes, host of The School of Greatness, goes solo in this episode to talk about watching friends get married and buy houses, or build businesses fast, while you feel stuck. He's blunt about it: you're putting their 10 or 15 years next to your first two, and that's an unfair fight.Lewis remembers being broke in his mid-20s, sleeping on his sister's couch and working an unpaid internship in Columbus, Ohio. On one of their walks, a mentor told him, “Money comes to you when you're ready for it.”About a year later the money started coming, and Lewis saw that he would have blown it if it had come any sooner.So stop measuring yourself by someone else's timeline. Keep putting in the work, and let go of the expectations that have been hurting you.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Generosity might be the smartest business strategy you are not using yet.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1584DMChris Anderson, the head of TED, told Lewis he doesn’t believe in some karmic deal where giving makes the universe send you money. What he does see is that generous people attract the best talent, because great minds want to work for a cause.Tesla gave away its patents to recruit great engineers. Chris would go further and publish Coke’s secret recipe, then offer a $10 million prize for a version with less sugar and launch it as the People’s Coke.His challenge for any company is a retreat with your most creative people and one question: what is the craziest thing we could give away?Pick one thing you guard tightly and ask what it could do for you out in the open.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

Your limiting beliefs might be the reason the same wall keeps showing up.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1692DMDavid Ghiyam, a spiritual teacher who has coached people around the world, told Lewis about a founder whose compa nies all fell apart at $10 million in revenue. Lawsuits hit and employees quit, and David traced it to one hidden belief: he didn’t feel he deserved more.Then there’s the competing kind. A business owner stuck at $5 million for years hated managing people, so part of her was hoping a million dollar client would say no.As David put it, it’s like having the parking brake on with your foot on the gas, wondering why the car won’t move.You’ll want to look at the place where you keep stalling and ask which part of you is pressing the brake.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Your self-belief got buried under someone else's story, and the gold underneath never went anywhere.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1997DMRobin Sharma, author of The Everyday Hero Manifesto, told Lewis about a towering Golden Buddha in Thailand that monks covered in layer upon layer of soil to hide it from invaders.Years later, a passerby saw a glimmer of gold shining through the mud and started digging. Robin says that is us: a kid left off a best friend's party list, or told “you sound terrible” in biology class, carries that wound for a lifetime.As Robin puts it, “Your daily behavior is always matching your deepest beliefs.” If you don't think you can find love, you will never ask the person out.So pick the old story you are still rehearsing, and scrape off the first layer.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Three shared meals a week can protect your kids’ health more than any diet plan you could buy.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1484DMShawn Stevenson, who has spent over 20 years in the health field, told Lewis that family meals work like a shield. In the research he shares, kids who ate with a parent just three times a week had lower rates of obesity and eating disorders.Shawn grew up in Ferguson, Missouri, without ever seeing what health looked like. He spent years trying to change the wider culture before he found that change works best when it starts at his own table.He also points to IBM workers whose stress climbed once their jobs started eating into dinner at home.You will want to open your calendar tonight and block off three meals with the people you love.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!
