    I've watched many interviews of Simon Sinek and this interviewer asked some pretty unique questions that really caused Simon to think and consider. I didn't find the interviewer as annoying as some others commenting here. I enjoyed watching Simon answer the unique questions, you can see that he's really engaged with the interviewer.

It is a great one off guide for learning how to easily get the success of your life of your dreams minus the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my mate at very last got astronomical success with it.

    A great interviewer asks thought provoking questions and lets the interviewee answer in a conventional manner. This interviewer did that. Until you’ve found a way to interview people of status, and done it, you’re opinion doesn’t matter. It’s an art that is learned by doing. I have been interviewed by terrible interviewers with the same boring question and constant interrupts and fantastic interviewers with great and original questions. I have also been able to interview a world renown figure, so I am not speaking from a lack of experience here. This was a great interview for the transparency of both involved, period!

    Simon Sinek is first and foremost, an AMAZING communicator... it's one thing to have a good message, yet another set of skills to communicate that message effectively, and Simon just knocks it out of the park every single time. As for the interviewer, I didn't find him annoying, though, I do agree, he is quite intense, but I think, more than anything, his enthusiasm is coming from his great admiration for this person he is talking to, and if you all can imagine being given a chance to have a conversation with someone you admire so much, you'd probably be really intense too! I know, I would! Especially when I realize this might be the only time I will ever have this opportunity to sit and talk with this incredible person! I don't know, I just think the interview is just like all of us, #fangirling over our favorite artist.

How refreshing to see Simon's down to earth spirit ("this was more evolutionary than revolutionary" as Simon tells his story.).

    Many people are complaining about the interviewer being annoying. I think one possible reason for that complain could be the mic level is much higher on the interviewer and whenever he makes a sound, it appears to be much more apparent. On the other hand, Simon's voice sounds very relax. This comparison creates this imbalanced "talk". In any case, a great interview! I like how the interviewer articulates his questions and that makes the interview very intersting to listen.

    For some reason, hearing Simon's why just made the last piece of my why click in place. I thought it was one of two things, but it was actually one that fed into the other: I thought it was either the pursuit of novel knowledge or the aim to help and inspire those around me. I now realize I think it's actually the pursuit of novel knowledge so that I can share it, and to help and inspire those around me.

    I just love Simon's passion for helping people.. I've shared his vision my whole life and just never been able to articulate it . There are millions of Simons. We believe what he believes.. We just can't articulate it like he can.. Not yet anyways. I listen to him 7days a week.. Trying to apply this at my job.. It's up to me to carry his torch in New Albany,Indiana.. God give me the strength to reach these peoples hearts.. Somewhere in life they lost themselves and started caring more about money than the people who generate it with them.. There is no way to measure most of these concepts on paper. Which is what they expect in upper management. I have faith that I will figure out how to get them to believe in ME enough to give me the space and tools I'll need to apply this theory in my workplace. 3PL Contractors.. Where the first sign in the parking lot says "Alpha Zone only".. Wish me luck because these are great people who just need guidance I can feel it!!!

    What we do is not so important than why you do it.That 'why' is what inspires us to do our work which can add more value to people's lives.Being a teacher, it is completely awesome to wake up and figure out cool ways to do my job in a more interesting way.That joy on my students face drives me to do more , that's my "Why"

    I have half a PhD in Physics. (That was 27 years ago.) Drive on using what you learned!
