    Keep at it! My first tournament didn't go as well as I would have liked but I did another recently and it went a lot better. Either way it helps your game and feels good to know you stepped up by challenging yourself. I actually hate the feeling of competing, I get really anxious, but feel so good afterwards knowing I put myself in that situation regardless of the outcome.

    Just a reminder that success is what you define it to be, not only net worth and material possessions. Nothing wrong with striving to be the next warren buffet if business is your passion and thats what you truly want. I just want to remind who ever reads this that is okay to want to become a teacher, nurse whatever your passion is and become great in your area. I just think this new standard is making people more ambitious instead of following there life path. Kids rarely want to become athletes for the love of the game, they want the fame and money. Play for the love of the game not the results, if not youll find your self hating the process and not enjoying the results.

    You just made an incredibly important point. I see so many people consumed with their public appearance, much of which is informed by social media. It seems like so many people have lost the plot. I can tell you, as a business owner, it is absolutely not for everybody. Many people don’t have the mind or temperament to not only build a successful business but to be happy in doing so. I am not suggesting in any way that makes me a better person or more intelligent than anyone who isn’t built for it. Those people are far better at so many other pursuits than I could ever be. The salient point is that owning a business is just A path but it is absolute not THE path and these internet “entrepreneur” personalities are largely painting a delusional reality for impressionable youth. Find something that makes you feel fulfilled at the end of the day that pays enough that you don’t need to struggle with bills and lean into that.

In my experience, everyone has something to teach you, even if it's not the thing they're trying to teach you. Loneliness is more a state of mind that a physical predicament.

    Random advice: being an entrepreneur is not for everyone. When I was like 20 I always though that I would make businesses and give it my all. I spent a year on that after university and only the realised that it's totally not for me. Now I am much happier being just a skilfull worker. And if you start investing early and with a really good plan that you stick to, money mostly will not be an issue.

Everyone was talking about how kind, good-natured, and humble the guy was while answering random questions about the cello from the internet. Everyone was like how can he be this proficient with his instrument yet still be this modest? Someone replied that you gotta be humble af to reach that level of expertise. You gotta have what it takes to listen to feed back and criticism to actually improve your game. Feed back and criticism aren't gonna come from the things you've already mastered. Alex is saying the same thing. If you wanna be the best, there can be no ego.

    Interesting perspective. Generally ego is associated with competition so I will have to listen to more of the podcast to understand how he has separated the two. The second half about the philosophy of friends and relationships is very well thought out. It doesn't bother him to leave friends behind but I wonder how the friends feel? My favorite Warren Buffett Quote: “I’ll tell you why I like the cigarette business. It cost a penny to make. Sell it for a dollar. It’s addictive. And there’s a fantastic brand loyalty.” Now that is how you make money.

And on the other hand are narcissism, delusion, thoughts of superiority and such. The latter is what most people mean by "too much ego" and it is a plaque.

    My Dad is a multi millionaire and drinks coors lite. He golfs with a guy who collects vintage supercars and drives to the course in a mini van with 200,000 miles on it. Guys who work at the course comment that it’s always guys with crazy cars getting their card denied and chased around for dues.

    I think he is absolutely wrong or at the very least using the term incorrectly. The ego can actually be very, very useful. I think what he is talking about is more related to fear mascaraing as success rather than ego or the false belief that you are at the top already so why bother continuing to improve or learn. Additionally narcissism can be extremely powerful when it isn't based on fear. "Turning now to the actual personality profiles of those in the ranks of the 1 percent, the German authors found these to conform to their theory’s predictions. These high-status and wealthy people were indeed more *extraverted*, conscientious, *emotionally stable (low in neuroticism)*, and were also more open to new experiences, *narcissistic*, and high in an internal locus of control. The personality profile differences held even after controlling for a set of demographic factors, including sex, age, and education." He is confusing ego with masks covering fear. Also sometimes it's better psychologically speaking to be the big fish in a small pond because a lot of our happiness is derived through comparisons. Those comparisons are often automatic, we have mechanisms in our mind that constantly compare us to those around us and modify our mood. That's why a middle class kid from an impoverished country can be happy and a person in a wealthy country can be miserable depending on relative context. Ego is part of your identity and your esteem. It's very valuable on this earthly life, it's just that it has become quite muddled with the recent incursion of eastern philosophies and other definitions that muddle the waters. People also often confuse its meaning because of Buddhism. The breakdown of the ego (personal identity) is often pursued in Buddhism because one of the core beliefs is that we are part of a whole that our identity is much more than just the individual self. There's a bit of, especially recently in the west, demonization of the ego as something to be shunned. It's almost seems to me like a signal of status, like a person wants to believe they are "above" the ego. No one who is alive is above the ego, at least by definition. Additionally, as a side note, the Dun Kruger effect is inversely correlated with IQ. " e·go noun a person's sense of self-esteem or self-importance. "a boost to my ego" Similar: self-esteem self-importance self-worth self-respect self-conceit self-image self-confidence amour propre PSYCHOANALYSIS the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity. PHILOSOPHY (in metaphysics) a conscious thinking subject."
