  • Are Science’s Greatest Achievements Helpful or Holding You Back? | Richard Dawkins (Archived Episode)

    Are Science’s Greatest Achievements Helpful or Holding You Back? | Richard Dawkins (Archived Episode)
    Nov 8 2024
    Whether you believe that humans and other species have evolved or you believe in a creator of living things, this episode is going to excite you or challenge you to think outside the box. Both scenarios are worthwhile, as Tom is joined by the world renowned evolutionary biologist, Richard Dawkins. Trying to fully grasp how the human mind works and what role evolution plays with our emotions, thought processes and sexual selection can be overwhelming. Tom highlights the inspiring works from Richard and discusses some complex ideas from his latest book, Books Do Furnish A Life. This is a deep dive into what evolution is, and raises the question of whether or not science, technology, and the human search for meaning and exploration has surpassed our basic evolutionary need for survival. Where does that leave humanity and what options are potential solutions worth exploring? Order Richard Dawkins new book, Books Do Furnish A Life: https://amzn.to/39fEeSU [Original air date: 9-21-21].

    Why the U.S. Can’t Repay Its Debt, What Comes Next, and How to Prepare | Ray Dalio - PT 2
    Nov 6 2024
    In today's insightful discussion, Tom sits down with renowned investor and author Ray Dalio to delve into pressing economic challenges and the changing world order. We'll explore Ray's unique perspectives on self-reliance, learning from mistakes, and the significance of "triangulation" in decision-making. Tom and Ray discuss how confronting the basics of survival and embracing simpler lifestyles can foster resilience amid economic turbulence. Ray Dalio emphasizes understanding historical patterns and recognizing financial cycles to navigate current and future crises, drawing parallels to past global events. They address the implications of the U.S. national debt, rising global tensions, and the role of education and financial literacy in preparing for economic downturns. In this episode, you will learn about the mechanics of money and debt, the impact of internal and external conflicts, and the benefits of radical transparency in personal and professional settings. There's also a deep dive into Ray's principles for successful decision-making and the importance of cultivating meaningful relationships and purposeful work.

Empowering myself with Impact Theory changed my life

I recommend any of Tom Bilyue’s content if you are sick and tired of trying to figure it out yourself. He breaks down the complicated into understandable phrases, and even better asks the questions that are literally in my head, always going a layer deeper. I was making $14.50 an hour at call center 5 yrs ago when I saw IT for the first time, I craved listening to it everyday, weird as that might sound. No doubt the wisdom he has shared has elevated and empower me to a 6 figure income. If there is anyone thing I would have to name that made all the difference it would be this “The person who has the ability to self soothe the quickest, will win”

Get Your Mindset Right

I've been following Tom for years and he is by far the best-of-the-best!

Tom interviews great thinkers and has an art of being able to extract incredible information from them with his questions that you can then apply to your life.

Listening to Impact Theory is far more than looking for "motivation", I believe if you listen and apply, it teaches you to open your mind and have a better perspective on how to change your life.

Thank you Tom!

Love it!

So inspiring, honest and thought provoking. Tom is a great interviewer and isn't afraid to push his guests to explain themselves fully and thinks deeply about some of the greatest challenges and innovations today and tomorrow. I love that he leads with his heart but it's backed up by crazy hard work and success.

A top interviewer that didn't come from big news

Me & my dad love listening to this. Bilyeu, keep it up. Just don't make the titles so "click baity". I looked back on the older episodes & you are doing a great job on taking that factor down.

Too Many Interruptions

Good information. However, host interrupts the guest speaker constantly. Would be better if guest could talk more and finish their thoughts.
