Thanks for watching! Don't miss out on these exclusive offers:

[starrydiscoqueen]

As someone who drives for Uber, I am constantly communicating with my passengers, asking many many questions such as the ones you’ve mentioned. My intention for these conversations is to be friendly and offer the best ride possible for them. I also have a degree in psychology and life coaching certification so I’m into this stuff. I must say yes asking a lot of questions and genuinely having a good conversation is so meaningful to me.

[AbdallahBotan]

Big respect to your Rich for inviting Mr. Duhigg.

[Golgibaby]

Mahalo for this! There's gotta be a presumption stated first (I may have missed it) that the individual parties coming to the table for conversation should have a good idea of what their identity and their values upon engaging with each other. A conversation does not imply a conversion, per say. The exchange of ideas is a win regardless for understanding, not necessarily acceptance of terms...realistically.

[CandiceLMossArt]

Brilliant talk! I truly wish I could have grown up with this knowledge being dropped not only at home but at school. Thank you both for the work you are doing!

[whobark]

You have no idea how much the power of habit changed my perspective on habits

[gregbatchelor]

This might be overly biased in favour of extroverts (like most social concepts); the notion that the more social connections you have, the healthier you'll be in old age seems a little over-simplistic and generalizing.

Ultimately, good health seems to correlate with being at peace with who one is and with the world surrounding us, whatever state that may represent for the individual in question. Extroverts tend to be less at peace when they have fewer social connections, introverts have the huge advantage of frequently being at peace in solitude and in their own company. It's therefore not entirely accurate to say that genuinely introverted individuals would be better off having to manage and connect with a greater number of people.

Indeed, the inverse could be said: for introverts, a basic minimum of meaningful social connections (which is *not* to say none) could be conducive to good health in old age, whereas for extroverts they may significantly suffer under those circumstances in which introverts tend to thrive.

All that being said, still an interesting conversation.

[timpunchill]

Eins der besten Gespräche das ich jemals gehört habe Thank Booth of you!

[ginnybraun]

Love, love the interchange between these brilliant men, Thank you Rich! Great interview!!❤

[LoungeLady]

The 7th time thing is real! Never heard it that way but that’s A way- you’re right- there is a learning and a thought process behind “when x happens, I need a different way to navigate it” - love it!

[jns_dmd]

Best RR episode yet. Thank you so much for all YOU do.

[mamaisalwaysright]

I had an aha moment when they discussed how breaking an old habit is much harder and more meaningful than starting a new one.❤

[CarmenYuen-xc]

This is such a nourishing interview/conversation. Thank you both :)

[AdoptionWisdom]

Wonderful and most important conversation

[racheldanczyk]

You can be right or you can have a relationship. You can't have both.

[gaBetibu]

. . . gentlemen, I'm trying to get to sleep, but just can't tear myself away from your, this most riveting chat...you two are both so uniquely insightful & also fun to listen to & learn from....too, too much fun learning & entertaining....God Bless You Both... 🙂

[patriciajenkins-galliford]

Definitly going to check that book out. Thanks so much for that podcast :)

[Coopernicuss]

Cx service ppl are still seriously mistreated & marginalized even though it was laughed about (I worked for a large communication company in cx service, tech support & management for a decade) and it's worth a conversation about it with ideas for strategic empathy to do something about it.

Regardless, this is an amazing conversation and a highlight of the year for me Rich.

[studentaccount]

Love, ❤Rich’s perspective that comes from the heart. I never heard of this author, Charles Duhigg. I think he can benefit from your growth experiences and choices. The focus on communications, the art of storytelling and business by journalist Duhigg was interesting. Emotional intelligence is something I am hearing about here. TYVM❤❤

[lydiasharp]

Touched beyond words by your mutual respect and willingness to stretch along perhaps unfamiliar paths to better connection.
Thanks guys!
