OK. Good program.....up until it became about politics. having and discussing the fear factors, coincidentally market their company and help push those that are scared, into the arms of those who will just so happen to educate and train them. That, is interesting.

All the notes I took condensed: 1. I constantly do hard things that others won't. 2. I am not afraid of making mistakes as long as I learn. 3. I have high standards for myself and others . 4. I rely on my own moral compass, not people's opinions 5. I love what I do and won't abandon it after I have hit a certain dollar amount. 6. details matter

1.25 talking about women being nurturers - very angry to hear this part of the debate stating women are natural nurturers and implying men don't want to stay home with children. Lucy Jones rebuts this well in 'Matrescence' - where she outlines studies demonstrating that fathers and males who spend time in nurturing roles have been measured as developing higher rates of hormones to increase this aptitude. Men are very much as capable of being a primary carer for young children.

The way he talks, jumping topics, and choosing words and terms that neither Steven nor we understand reminds me of someone with delusions of grandeur who is deliberately obtuse to maintain superiority. Cult leaders talk like this. Using their 'specialised' language to make themselves sound smart and make the listener question the voracity of their own knowledge. hence, making them the guru. if he was that smart, he could talk in a way we could understand.
