Calm down. He’s just listening. Anyone can do it.

@@majorkuntz”can”, perhaps. “Does”? Absolutely not.

Also worth highlighting his patience at needing to ask the same question 10 times over 5 minutes.

Worth remembering: He's an ad man, so he's never just listening. There's always intention. Which means there's always some lack of genuine regard. Anything and everything becomes the means of manipulation.

I think in every habit "compound pounding" effect is the best solution... People probably know this effect but forgot about it because of being too distracted by media or thoughts etc. in sport, in business, in relationships. 1. If you use compound pounding in sport, (exercissing for an hour) you will see no results in 5 days,but you will see big results in 100 days. 2. If you will say a good morning to people, you will see no effect in 5 days, but you will see a great difference in 100 days. 3. If you will practice the compassion for your partner and make some good deed, you will see no or small difference in 5 days, but you will see a great difference in 50 or 100 days, you will see how much you mean to them. People see this compound pounding effect in the nature, the garden looks the same after few days, but after a 100 days it looks different. Therefore you can not tell if your values are working after one week, because you see the effect after 100 or 140 days. Maybe each couple should practice this technique, If I will make something small to make my partner happy, for a little moment, they will remember these little moments, and good calm or happy mood increases the immunity of the body by 50 percent in 4 days. So their kids will learn the same technique. They will learn that if they will read a book 10 minutes a day, it has a great impact on brain. Next time it may be 20 minutes a day. But if you stop doing the healthy habit now... after a week it makes no difference after 140 days the results change for worse, you loose muscles or you lose some skill or motivation etc. Good deed may be also making a pizza or small things. People actually enjoy small things much more than big gestures, because it´s about living in the moment...... Big gestures (expensive car) mean that you actually burned out too much energy to make a small effect, rather than small gestures that after time create a great effect of connection, and people like you for your authentic personality.

I want to know what that moment was about.

What was the moment?

This comment just brought tears to my eyes...

Thanks for posting this. I'm right there with you. I haven't had the fire or ambition since the lockdown, and since it's become my new norm, I'm disillusioned that I will ever find it again.

Yes, I'm surprised they don't edit that out.

It’s a really beautiful and relatable example. I love it.

What a wonderful WHY🙏! Much love… Mike Murphy💕

I think his question was sarcastic...everyone has to have a childhood to get to adulthood. Either way the questions would be what are the highlight deep moments for you childhood/teen years I'd imagine.

Even if one has a very tough childhood there should be some special moments somewhere.

Yes, I thought this. What if he hadn't had such wholesome examples?

Childhood trauma affects the development of a sense of self. Knowing who you are. what you want. and why you want it is difficult in those circumstances.

Children inherently gravitate towards their natural purpose (their why) As it is just part of who they are. These are the natural talents or the activities that children can just lose themselves in time and time again for hours and never get bored of. It’s only through growing up that these inherent natural fires get slowly smothered, put out, and the ashes cast away - so that we end up in a position where we don’t know our why

Probably the onions I am cutting for the yassa chicken

which bit specifically made you cry? the specific moment. was it words, or tone? watch again and see exactly where your tears appear. from that I can help you understand why you cried. (triggers to tears are a sign post for us to hidden traumas)

Last three minutes of the clip covered that!

Hero comment

I’ve never seen him before, so I can’t agree or disagree with your assessment of him. But what I did see is a guy who’s just unsure of himself, likely needs validation, but who’s in his 40s and still not quite fully content yet. Carl Jung said midlife crisis is when we climb up the ladder of success and realize it’s leaning against the wrong wall. I feel like this guy experienced this. I also have to wonder about what relationships he has in his life. His memory of mom scratching the back of dad’s head is a powerful image of love and I wonder if he’s got a partner who will do that. Sounded like he didn’t. Sounded like he wasted a 10-15 years chasing some illusory definition of success and wants an awakening.

Having a positive memory about a thing is not the same as that one thing sticking out above everything else by a mile. (Am I making any sense?)

​@@sudarkoff hmmm, I'm not convinced. Jake's first story was more about proving himself. That's what he specifically called out. I would expect that most people's positive memories from childhood are related to belonging. That's just biology. He didn't even say he wanted to be a part of a team with his family. To me it sounded like he just felt very loved in that moment. Belonging is really just another way of saying being loved. Pretty much everyone deeply wants to belong and prove themselves as competent. If I think about my own memories, most of the good ones are related to belonging or succeeding. To me this feels like Simon telling him that his purpose is to drink water because that's when he feels most refreshed. It sounds profound at first, but if I were Jake, I'm not sure I would feel any closer to a purpose that felt uniquely important to me.

​@@gabriel_leake Are you skeptical of the method or the conclusion Simon and Jake reached in this conversation? If you're skeptical of the conclusion, remember that Simon was interviewing Jake, not you. Surely, he was paying attention not only to the words Jake used to answer his questions but also to how that line of questioning was resonating with Jake. If he was interviewing you and you felt unimpressed, then this would have been a different conversation.

Absolutely. Sounded so forced.

Nothing ever exactly fits, Simon is simply doing his best to help a fellow human in this case.

At least he’s trying

He’s just doing his best to work with what’s presented

He has to play devils advocate to dig deep
