Today`s world is full of suffering and cruelty. From birth, we are trained to accept the rules of society as « as they are, » but consent to those rules prevents us from becoming our true self.

These chords are: 1) Use your words flawlessly. 2) Don`t take anything in person. 3) Don`t make assumptions. 4) Always do your best.

He`s definitely addicted. This is actually the second book in the thriller series of Carrs Terminal List (Rogan read them out of the series, starting with book #3, Savage Son).

Rags-to-rich stories deceive us, because even if they are true – you can start your poor life and end it richly – they let all the benefits of the circumstances that contribute to success pass. In addition, they make us believe that success is an individual achievement. But no one can do it alone.

Joe Rogan finished reading Malcolm Gladwell`s outliers and discussed it with Joey Diaz in JRE #1190 (October 29, 2018). This is Gladwell`s second book that Rogan has read in 2018.
