I also shared my thoughts and feelings on making the show. We also shared some experiences we had in Peru.

Adam and I discuss:

  • How to overcome resistance and consistently do the work (whether you feel like it or not)
  • Discipline without surrender versus surrender without discipline
  • Experiencing breakdown and feeling inadequate
  • Living life through your head versus heart
  • The money beliefs that underly what we do and what we do to overcome them
  • Thinking that having a business and the ability to travel mean being successful
  • How the sense of self-worth is tied to how well you do in business
