Hello,

This week, I define what it means to get your act together and what the benefit is from embracing that challenge. Former Vice President Mike Pence joins me to discuss his run for the 2024 presidency. Then, in a look back into the archives, I address how men can get over their fear of talking to women. 

Advice

Get Your Act Together

If you think that your community is not oriented properly, then get your act together — because there is more to you than you think. What does it mean to get your act together? This is part of the issue of value structures. 

What should your value structure be? Well, there are minimum preconditions. You should take care of yourself like you are someone worth helping. That is rule number two, by the way. But you should take care of yourself like you are someone worth helping in a way that would benefit your family. That adds an additional set of constraints. 

It is also a set of interesting challenges to take care of yourself in a way that works for you but also for your family. If you manage that, if you can get that organized, then you do what you can for yourself and your family in a way that benefits the community. If you do not like the direction that the community is going, that is your problem — seriously. But it is also your adventure.

Can Anxiety Work In Your Favor? 

If you have a problem and you really think through what the consequences are going to be in three to five years of not facing it, then you are going to get more afraid of not facing it than facing it. And that is great because then your anxiety, instead of standing in front of you — instead of you having a dragon that is guarding the path in front of you — you have one chasing you down the path from behind. That is a lot more useful. That is just a minimal example of the utility of getting your emotions and your thoughts aligned the same way.

Speaking Softly And Carrying A Big Stick | Mike Pence | EP 368

In this episode, former Vice President Mike Pence and I discuss his current run for the 2024 presidency and matters of concern, including the U.S. government's overreach in economic matters, the indoctrination and sexualization of the youngest citizens, the realistic way forward on the Russia Ukraine front, and the possible solution to stabilize a nation wrought with cultural warfare.
