Kyle's Background and how Mixed martial arts gave him human element to sports
The root of all addiction is trauma “ Gabor Mate (shopping, tv, a form of escape)
“The difference between psychedelics and religion is having a direct experience with the divine” - Dennis McKenna
Zero depression leaving fighting because of new mindset of trust, faith, and belief. Trust that just need to follow passions and dreams and everything would sort itself out.
How Kyle got to work for Onnit and become the Director of Human Optimization
Optimization is not about making life easier, it’s about knowing how to tackle the challenges ahead of you and welcoming those challenges.
Working out is energy expending, working in is energy building. (Breath work, charging self up with O2) shifting from sympathetic to PS (calm, rest)
We all have shit to sort through. We’re constantly in Ebb & Flow. Hopefully we can make stress more acute.
Flow state: Timeless act of being 100% in the now.
How you hack that is doing something you love. And showing up as best self. More you’re playing and enjoying, it’s easier to hack flow
Being present is how to hack flow. Be here NOW.
Tips and habits
A good question to ask self daily: W.I.N - What's Important Now?
Kyle's Gift to share: Play
