Turn Rejection Into Feedback And Make Every Yes Count | Katt Williams
What if every rejection was just someone telling you exactly what to fix?Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1996DMComedian Katt Williams, who once sold door to door, told Lewis that sales taught him to collect nos on purpose. Knock on 900 doors, he figured, and 90 yeses will come.The shift came when Katt decided a no only meant he hadn’t done a good enough job. Maybe it was how he stood, or the look on his face when the door opened.He carries that into comedy. “The audience is never wrong,” he says, so he rehearses a joke 35 times in the mirror and tests it in 100 cities before it ever reaches a special.The next time you hear no, ask what it says about how you showed up. Then go knock again.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

5 Longevity Foods You Need To Eat Every Day To Live Longer | Dr. Michael Greger
The best longevity foods might be the ones you keep walking past at the grocery store.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1583DMDr. Michael Greger, a physician who tracks the research on diet and life expectancy, told Lewis that beans and lentils are tied to the biggest lifespan gains in the Global Burden of Disease Study. His reason is your gut: the good bacteria live on fiber, and most of us are starving them.Ounce for ounce, walnuts pull ahead of every other nut. Michael says a palmful, about 10 halves a day, is enough, because the benefit levels off after that.He calls refined grains terrible for us, and he wants you adding real food until it crowds out the junk, which makes up over half of American calories.Grab a can of lentils for tonight and keep a handful of walnuts on the counter for tomorrow.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

How A Sociopath Builds A Moral Code Without Guilt | Dr. Patric Gagne
What if guilt was never the thing keeping you good?Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1995DMDr. Patric Gagne, a diagnosed sociopath, told Lewis she lives without shame or guilt. What keeps her in line is an internal code built on logic, and the amount of harm she chooses to do is zero.She once stole from a cruel woman and handed the item to a stranger on the street. It felt so good that she saw the slippery slope right away.Patric traces that urge to a deep sense of unfairness, one that started in kindergarten when she learned Santa was a lie. She argues that if guilt is the only thing stopping you, you have no real control.You will start asking why you actually do the right thing, and whether your reasons would still hold if the guilt went quiet.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How To Train Your Brain and Learn Faster Starting Today | Jim Kwik
The story that you are a slow learner might be the only thing holding your brain back.Check out the full episode: https://lewishowes.com/podcast/jim-kwik/Jim Kwik, who has spent two decades teaching people how to learn and remember, told Lewis about the head injury that left him feeling broken as a kid. It took him two extra years to learn to read, and by college he was ready to quit.Then he pushed so hard he passed out in the library and woke up in the hospital two days later, down to 117 pounds.A nurse handed him tea in an Einstein mug: the same level of thinking that created the problem won’t solve the problem. Jim stopped asking why he was slow and started asking how to learn faster. Within 60 days, it felt like a light switch went on.Ask yourself which story about your own mind you have been calling a fact.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

If Fear Keeps You Safe But Stuck, Open Your Sail | Scott Barry Kaufman
You don't have to wait until your fear is gone to start moving toward the life you want.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1116DMScott Barry Kaufman, the psychologist behind the sailboat model of human needs, told Lewis that Maslow never drew a pyramid at all. Scott sees your needs as one vessel: the boat keeps you afloat, and the sail is what moves you.When you're short on safety, you start screaming for it, and that gap quickly drains your connection and self-esteem too. Scott calls it the insecurity cycle.Patching the holes only gets you from negative 50 to zero. Growth starts when you open the sail, even nervous, the way Scott was driving six miles in a suit for the first time in a year.Pick one place where you've been waiting to feel safe, and choose exploration there anyway.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Turn Your Anxiety Into a Signal That Finally Sets You Free | Dr. John Delony
Your anxiety might be the one part of you that is working perfectly.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1994DMDr. John Delony, a mental health expert, told Lewis that anxiety is a smoke alarm in your house. It can't tell you which room is burning. It just knows there is smoke.If you carry six figures in student loans and a mortgage, your body would be failing you if it let you sleep all night. Waking at 2:30 in the morning means it is doing its job.Numbing it with another drink or another Netflix night is, in John's words, duct-taping a pillow over the alarm. Sometimes the real fix is sitting down with your spouse and saying, “We have to rebuild this thing or it's over.”The next time the alarm wakes you, put down the fight and ask what in your life feels unsafe.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How To Destroy Scarcity With Gratitude in 10 Minutes a Day | Tony Robbins
The richest person you know might have almost nothing, as long as they wake up full of gratitude for it.Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1218DMTony Robbins, the life and business strategist, told Lewis that billionaire investor Sir John Templeton once gave him the secret to wealth in one word: gratitude. A billion dollars lived pissed off and frustrated is still a pissed off, frustrated life.Tony was broke and working 18 hour days when he pulled over on a California freeway near midnight. He wrote in his journal, “the secret to living is giving.” Then he cried.He saw he had only been asking what he wasn't getting. Scarcity left him that night, and the boy whose family had no Thanksgiving meal has since fed 42 million people.Try his morning habit tomorrow: three and a half minutes naming what you are grateful for, starting with something as small as the wind on your face.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

If Your Purpose Isn’t Truly Yours, Achieving It Will Feel Empty | Shi Heng Yi
What if the purpose you are chasing was never yours to begin with?Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1993DMShi Heng Yi, a Shaolin master, told Lewis that it can go very wrong to spend your lifetime building a vision that came from someone else.He named the worst case plainly: you follow it, you achieve it, and then you realize it doesn't give you what you were looking for. What he offers instead is gentle. Learn how to deal with failure, and learn to accept the way you are instead of trying to stay beautiful.He isn't judging anyone's goals. He asks you to check whose idea you are actually living.Afterward, you may catch yourself asking which of your dreams really started with you.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
