Awesome message Lewis! Attitude of getting up everytime u fall is must must to taste success.

this podcast litterally couldnt have come in at a better time. I just found out a job that allows me spare time, pays half as much I was told it would. I have the option to go back to working entry level and make extra money but would cut my time to develop my gifts and business. I really appreciate this. It really hit home when you said 'stay true to yourself and what feels good.' I just started my entrepenuer journey in december and its already been a heck of a ride. thanks so much for the reminder and th inspiration. keep rockin Lewis!

Awesome!!! Keep on with more like this.. Most inspiring for those dejected...

Great stuff. Very interesting and inspiring!! Keep doing what you are doing Mr. Howes!! It I'd greatly appreciated

I am new on board and I love it. I love the thought of seeing failure as feedback on what's effektive and what is not. Will think in this direction for my upcoming challenge, thank you so much!!!

Daniel Kahneman is the world’s most influential psychologist because he has, based on empirical research, figured out how we can notice when we are not thinking rationally.  That knowledge gives us the choice to think “slow”---ignore brisk intuition and notional risks---when we decide we really need to get something right.

His book, "Thinking, Fast and Slow", is an international best-seller in part because the reader (or listener of his lecture) is invited to make cognitive experiments while reading (or listening).  You catch your mind in the act of opting for illusion.  To engage Kahneman’s work is to experience a delightful carnival ride of one “Busted!” after another.  Your own brain becomes a co-instructor in how to use it better.

Kahneman received the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 02002 for his work (with Amos Tversky) in “prospect theory” that founded the new discipline of behavioral economics.

"Thinking Fast and Slow" was given on August 13, 02013 as part of Long Now's Seminar series. The series was started in 02003 to build a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking from some of the world's leading thinkers. The Seminars take place in San Francisco and are curated and hosted by Stewart Brand. To follow the talks, you can:

WE FEAR WHAT WE DON’T UNDERSTAND. The future doesn’t have to be scary. You don’t have to put your energy into building bunkers, hiding gold bars in the ground, and preparing for the end. The future can be full of possibility. There are so many exciting advancements happening in the fields of science, health, and space. But you have to change your mindset from fear to positivity. The world is magic. On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about the future of health and technology with a transformative leader and visionary: Peter Diamandis.

He is also the executive founder of Singularity University, a graduate-level Silicon Valley institution that counsels the world's leaders on exponentially growing technologies. Peter repeats his “Massively Transformative Purpose” to himself throughout his day to give him focus. His passion is the key to his success. So get ready to get excited about the technology of the future on Episode 881.

Embrace the Future and Find Your Massively Transformative Purpose with Peter Diamandis

NOTHING SHOULD STAND IN THE WAY OF YOUR STORY. We've had some pretty amazing women on The School of Greatness. I've learned a lot from each of them. In fact, I learn a lot from all the women around me (almost my whole team is women). Today's guest is no exception. Male, female, old, young - we could all learn from this incredible businessperson. Not only is she the youngest self-made female billionaire in America (wow, right??), she is also the mother of four young kids, the wife of another podcast guest, Jesse Itzler, and the founder and CEO of the massively popular women's apparel brand SPANX. In this episode, I got to sit with and learn from a legend among entrepreneurs: Sara Blakely. During this interview, I kept finding out new things to admire Sara for. She struggled a lot in school (me too!). She sold fax machines door to door FOR 7 YEARS before she had the idea for Spanx. She was rejected by every manufacturing company she took her idea to. But she didn't let any of that stop her. Sara's hustle and can-do attitude is just one thing I learned about her in this interview. We dive into dealing with grief, how to scale companies the right way, what it's like to be mentored by Richard Branson, and much more. Welcome to an inspiring interview with a powerhouse in Episode 893.

Some Questions I Ask: 
How did you meet your husband Jesse? (30:12)
How do you stay so grounded and calm with everything you have going on? (32:00)
What did you learn from being mentored by Richard Branson? (44:47)
What is more challenging for you – running a billion-dollar brand or being a mom? (49:46)

In This Episode You Will Learn:
What happened in Sara’s life to prepare her for entrepreneurship before she had her big idea (7:12)
The list of possible product names Sara considered before she decided on Spanx (11:46)
The hardest part of getting her company off the ground (15:55)
How Sara guerrilla-marketed her first order of Spanx in Neiman Marcus (20:01)
Why being kind to yourself is so important (32:15)
How Sara got Warren Buffet to paint his belly for her new book (36:32)
What grief and loss can teach us (43:01)
Plus much more…

Sara Blakely: SPANX CEO on Writing Your Billion Dollar Story

NEW DECADE, NEW SLEEP GOALS. So often we glorify not getting enough sleep. We brag about pulling an all-nighter. We “grind” or wake up at the crack of dawn. Some of us think that staying up is helping us achieve our dreams. But sleep is key to our mental and physical health. It even keeps us young. So why do so many of us put quality sleep on the back burner? On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about sleep with a bestselling author on the subject: Shawn Stevenson. Shawn Stevenson is an author of “Sleep Smarter” and creator of The Model Health Show, featured as the #1 Health podcast in the country on iTunes. A graduate of The University of Missouri - St. Louis, Shawn studied business, biology and kinesiology, and went on to be the founder of Advanced Integrative Health Alliance, a company that provides wellness services for individuals and organizations worldwide. Shawn says that often we look at sleep as something we should sacrifice to be more present for other people and our goals. But the word sacrifice actually means “to make sacred.” We need to make sleep a sacred practice that heals our body and mind.

So get ready to learn how and why you should have more restful sleep on Episode 896.

What is sleep? (16:00)
How bad is sugar for sleep? (28:00)
