Optimize With Brian Johnson | More Wisdom In Less Time

Stay in the Ring and Let’s Go!   In our last +1, we spent some time riding appropriately big waves and reminded ourselves that, when we’re wisely surfing the beautiful oceans of life, we remember to ENJOY the waves.    Today we’re going to bring my all-time favorite teacher (Epictetus!) back to the party to hear his take on the subject.    But…    Before we go there…   Let’s pause for a moment and think about the great big-wave surfer, Laird Hamilton.    The guy is obsessed about finding THE BIGGEST POSSIBLE WAVES HE CAN FIND!    Why?   Because that’s how he knows he can see what he’s made of and HAVE THE MOST FUN!!   Crazy?   Of course.    And that’s how he is fulfilling his idiosyncratic, Heroic destiny and inspiring all of us to do the same in our own unique ways as well.    Side note: Have you seen Finding Joe yet? Laird tells his story in it. Along with Tony Hawk. They talk about all the FEAR they felt pursuing their big, hairy, audacious dreams. Watch the trailer here. Full movie fo
