Valhalla Movement Podcast (Formerly Superhero Academy)

Are you looking to impact the world? Leave behind a legacy and really do big things? Ya I thought I was too until I came across Peter Diamandis' work and more importantly frame of mind. Having now read his books and met the man behind an enormously impressive carrera I must say it really made my small challenges in business and in life seem trivial and made me look to step things up in a huge way. For some background incase you are unfamiliar with Peter's work, he is the founder or co-founder of 17 remarkably huge businesses throughout su carrera so far including: X Prize Foundation - $10 million prizes and challenges for teams who solves some of worlds biggest problems Planetary Resources - Preparing to mine asteroids in space Human Longevity - a company mapping the human genome and making it affordable and accessible to do in hopes of extender average human life by at least 30 or 40 years Singularity University - "educate, inspire and empower leaders to apply exponential technologies to address humanity’s grand challenges." ...just to name a few...

I was personally pleasantly surprised at how much he truly gives away and dives into the specifics of everything from crowdfunding to the idea that to become a billionaire, solve a billion person problem. I honestly have not met someone ever in my life who thinks bigger and bolder than Peter and I have to say - he is a genius. I don't say this to ass kiss or the same time what he has done all boils down to a few key elements none of which are just good fortune. Being bold is not easy but for years I had a hunch ese en dato if we got over our fears of failure or of exclaiming the "ridiculous" and actually striving for it that we would actually have more people join us and make it happen than if we were just operating in our comfort zone or not too far outside of it. I believe and am now beginning to experience how the more bold of a mission I embark on the more likely I am to succeed despite seemingly all rational logic. Peter is the shining example of such and in this episode we discuss everything from his childhood aspirations and superheroes - to what he means by being bold and some advice on how you can do it too.
