Ultimately, the episode conveys that personal growth is crucial for giving and connecting with others, and that stagnation leads to a sense of internal death.

The biggest drug on earth is not cocaine. It's not fentanyl. It's not dope. It's problems. Cuz the deepest

00:00:09

fear everybody has is they're not enough. And our deeper fear is if we're

00:00:13

not enough, we won't be loved. I've never met a human being. I've worked

00:00:16

with kings, queens, winners of everything you can imagine. There's some point in which you might feel for

00:00:21

someone you care about most that you're not smart enough, young enough, old enough, pretty enough, funny enough,

00:00:26

rich enough, playful enough, something enough. And it is the worst feeling on earth. To feel like you are unloved and

00:00:31

worthless is internal death. So people come up with a story. It's just because

00:00:36

I have, you know, um I have this dyslexia. That's why. But that's not why

00:00:40

they're feeling what they're feeling right now. It's because they're fearful.

00:00:44

And so if you have a big problem, that's why I'm not where I want to be. It's not

00:00:48

that I'm not enough and not worthy of love. And so people use problem as a way

00:00:52

to connect. We all must grow. When you grow, you feel alive. And if you don't

00:00:56

grow, you start to die inside. And this isn't my rule. Everything in the universe grows or dies. As you well

00:01:01

know, this is the law of the universe. If your relationship's not growing, it's

00:01:04

dying. Don't yourself. If your business is not growing, you're a businessman. You know it is not growing.

00:01:09

It is dying. You better do something now. Right? But we grow so we have something finally to give.
