Show Notes

As entrepreneurs, we usually regard ourselves as "smart", or at least "smarter" than our peers.

Don't look at me like that-- you know this, you've done this many times.

When we solve certain problems and get paid handsomely for it, we have this pride about the way we do things, which makes us forget how we can be "intellectually vulnerable" in other areas of our lives.

Then one day, we do....STUPID THINGS.

I sat down with 2x Guinness World Record Holder, competitive Brazilian Jiu Jitsu athlete, Author, and Hypnosis Expert Chris Bolger to discuss this.

This is definitely one of my favorite podcast conversations as I learned a lot in this episode about how to deal with my moods and how to make better decisions. As they say, the only job of a CEO is to make good decisions and I'm here to invest everything I have in that.
