" I don't think of myself as brilliant" One of the most truthful statements I keep close to my heart is "A wise man knows himself to be a fool, while the fools proclaim themselves to be wise"

"Never asking for help is selfish." Well, that one hit me.

SIMON IS AMAZING. “HOW I CREATE WEALTH”

I love how Steven gives his guest so much talking time and allow them to fully explore their thoughts after asking questions Such a great host Impeccable wisdom was shared throughout this interview. Gold.

I totally love Simon Sinek. His ability to steer the conversation in such a way that the next statement affirms the previous. Thank you Steven . I don't know why you started this show but I tell you it's one of the best things that has happened to this generation

“Let us all be the leaders we wish we had.” -Simon Sinek

These are the takeaways from this session that I'll be taking home: 18:50 - Finally, a simple explanation of what meditation is and how to do it. 19:42 - How to be a real friend. 20:51 - This is your higher purpose. 52:48 - You can learn to be uncomfortable. 1:11:03 - Not all stress is bad. 1:33:04 - Was your life worth living?

Thank you, Simon's segment "How do you know you lived a life worth living" almost made me cry at 1:33:15. People will pick up where I left off and continue without me. I was clear enough, my cause was compelling enough, and the tools I left were sharp enough that others will use them, make them better, and invent new ones. Thank you.

This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it youtube.com/post/Ugkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIat… guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.

For the past week, these podcasts have really woken me up and put things into perspective for me. I have been depressed and wondering why I have a lack of motivation to actually get out there and take the steps towards doing what I love and having a purpose in life while I’m doing it. This is Big for me, but just the first step. I appreciate your platform of honesty and how you always bring to life our thoughts, the unspoken truth of our lives. You say it out loud. I also appreciate your sacrifice which is giving your time in order to help us inner-stand our own purpose and meaning to life. This is beautiful. Thank you 🤎✨

This podcast is so addictive. I love the guests, the questions, the layout, everything!

I am wiping back tears after watching this video because as someone who has recently been diagnosed with ADHD, I feel seen. We all aspire to Simon's level of "brilliance" and it's such a comfort to have him share his status. I hope I can find more content discussing his neurodivergence. I have been playing this interview in dribs and drabs for over a week so I can savour all the gems.

Breathtaking to see two articulate men having a collaboratively intelligent conversation and sharing insights and truths without any hint of ego or competition. Also fantastic to hear that Simon is working on Police Reform. This is so important for our civil society. Thank you

Please pray for me guys I need to get of methodone and get my life back together, pray that I get the funds to get to detox center so I can get my life back together, I have a little boy and I can not be a good dad while I'm taking methodone. I am so ready to change. God bless everyone

Dairy of a ceo is my favourite podcast every guest fills me with new knowledge and understanding of myself .Thank you Steven !

Great talk Simon and Steve. Some of your audience definitely remember the start of the Internet. I'm 62 and it's never too late to change your life and improve. Thank you both!

Thank you, Steven, and thank you, Simon. The DOAC is not a podcast. it's so much more. It is learning platform. These are the takeaways from this session that I'll be taking home: 18:50 - Finally, a simple explanation of what meditation is and how to do it. 19:42 - How to be a real friend. 20:51 - This is your higher purpose. 52:48 - You can learn to be uncomfortable. 1:11:03 - Not all stress is bad. 1:33:04 - Was your life worth living?

Alot of what he says is exactly how I've spent my whole life feeling and knowing without having the ability to put it into the right words to explain to others. Being the eldest of a single parent household, I happily have always sacrificed alot for my family and put them first. I'm grateful for the lessons I learnt at a very early age. I hope one day I can use that information to help others .
