"In this latest episode of The Antidote Experience, we dive into the fascinating and highly debated topic of free will. Using insights and quotes from renowned neuroscientist Robert Sapolsky's book "Behave," we explore the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and biology in shaping our actions and decision-making processes. We examine the scientific evidence that suggests that free will may be an illusion and question the extent to which we can truly be held responsible for our actions. Join us as we delve into the latest research and theories surrounding the concept of free will, and consider the implications for our understanding of morality, responsibility, and the nature of the self."

Welcome to the Antidote Experience! In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of philosophy. From health and the nature of man to different world views, we cover a wide range of topics that will challenge and inspire listeners.

We begin by examining the philosophies of Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche, two influential thinkers who have shaped our understanding of the human condition. Sartre's concept of "existentialism" emphasizes the individual's freedom and responsibility, while Nietzsche's philosophy of "nihilism" rejects traditional values and promotes the creation of new ones.

Next, we delve into the teachings of Epictetus, a Greek philosopher who emphasized the importance of personal responsibility and the power of the mind. His philosophy of "stoicism" encourages individuals to focus on what they can control and let go of what they cannot.

Finally, we explore the ideas of Thomas Hobbes, an English philosopher who is best known for his work on the nature of man and the social contract. His philosophy of "political realism" asserts that the state exists to protect individuals from the chaos of the natural world and that power should be centralized in the hands of the ruling authority.

Whether you are a philosophy enthusiast or just looking to broaden your perspective, this episode is sure to spark meaningful discussions and provide new insights into the nature of reality. Tune in now to learn more about these influential philosophies and how they continue to shape our understanding of the world today.

After reading a bunch of philosophy, anthropology, psychology, sociology, and general worldviews, I want to note in which motifs I see deep wisdom that has stood the test of time.

Personally, I really enjoyed reading about the philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus while also sprinkling in some theories of Ernest Becker, Sigmund Freud, Immanuel Kant and Jean-Jacques Rosseau. These individuals proposed fundamental problems humanity faces during their upbringing that eventually drag through their whole lives. Furthermore, I think we can tackle these problems most efficiently by utilizing the tools and practices stoic philosophers like Plato, Aristotle and Marcus Aurelius manifested.

In today's video, I want to discuss a sort of different topic than the usual stuff I talk about on this channel. Cryptocurrencies and the market correction of May 2021. I'm deliberately calling it a correction because I'm still very bullish on the overall crypto space and think that this "dip" was helpful for investors (that haven't been liquidated). Those who sold their investments are going to FOMO back in as soon as markets reach new all-time highs The fact that Elon Musk's tweet can impact coins up to 20% tells me that we are still so early in this game. People who adopted Bitcoin in the 2010s were surely quite a lot ahead of the curve but there's still so much room to grow with insane transaction speeds, smart contracts and implementation in emerging markets.  Guys, this is no financial advice and you should not listen to me, I'm just sharing what I plan to do in the current situation, which is buy & hold.

Let’s get right into it. Part 1 of these posts was all about starting your journey and growing your channel. Part 2 is all about growing your wallet.

I’ll talk about everything from specific tactics to monetization and other income streams - and this time I won’t forget telling you about that “secret” tactic I’ve been teasing in part 1.

But before I do, let me tell you one thing again: don’t go into this expecting to become a bazillionaire by summer of next year. Use YouTube and all other platforms as a creative outlet, some sort of memory book or because you feel like you have something interesting and of value to share.

Money shouldn’t be your main motivation behind this...it’ll set you up for disappointment and take away all the beauty from the process. Do it to build skill sets, to experiment with new things and to grow as a person. Do it because you want to, not because you feel like you HAVE to. Alright, let’s go.

Landing pages are the follow-up pages after a prospect clicks on your advertisement on Facebook, Google, Pinterest, Instagram, etc. The goal of the landing page depends on the objective of your brand but most of the time you want to establish some sort of relationship to the potential customer. Is your goal to get an email, to make a sale or to get a phone call? You have to decide upfront and structure your website and landing page according to your objective and customer.  It's super important to follow these 12 steps precisely with your landing page in order to maximize the results and actually get converting customers and purchases. Make sure you've created your perfect customer avatar beforehand so that you can easily speak the same language and talk effectively about their pain points, hopes and fears. I go in-depth in this video on how persuasion works, even if a total stranger lands on your website. We recommend using Zipify, Gempages or Clickfunnels when building your highly successful sales page. The first two integrate directly with Shopify. 

YouTube was founded in 2005 and with over 2 BILLION monthly active users, it’s one of the biggest video sharing sites out there. You can pretty much find anything you can think of on there...for real, think of the most random thing you can come up with and look at what YouTube will give you. You’d be surprised.

And since 2007 they also made it possible to run ads, and it’s one of the best hubs to do so. This also why - like for so many people already out there - making a living via YouTube is only getting more and more common.

We elaborate on finding video ideas, building a set of values to pursue and how to grab your audiences' attention in a good way.

And the best thing about it: once a video is up and approved, it’ll remain untouched until you decide to take it down, collecting those sweet views all by itself...and the more views you get, the more tasty ad money goes into your bank account. This is the magic of passive income. You only need to do the work once and reap the rewards forever.

“Simple things that have to be done consistently over large periods of time aren’t necessarily easy.” -a shameless plug from our book

Today I want to talk about 5 principles I follow that can really make a difference. Keep in mind: these principles aren’t step-by-step guides to structuring your day and all that stuff. This is more about the mindset behind every action because the details change from case to case. As I already said, everyone sets their own definitions of success and that's why everyone has to take different steps to get there...but the principles of mindfulness stay.

I always think it’s funny that people spend so much time reading about the morning habits of billionaires and thinking this will actually put them in their shoes. I started out like that as well but came to the realization that this is simply the wrong way of doing it.

There is no blueprint and there are no shortcuts. What I’ll talk about in the coming chapters are pretty simple things to understand, but read the quote from the beginning of the chapter and you’ll think differently of simple things. But for good measure I’ll also list some habits that are proven to make a difference - it may not make sense for everyone but I’ll give it a shot.

Get the book here: https://amzn.to/3rULYBM 

In a nutshell, this best-selling 1997 book, written by Robin Sharma, is about a fictional character who gave up his luxurious lawyer life to live a more centered, mindful and most importantly happier one. Although you could call it a self-help book, it’s not one of the usual ones…  How It’s Different First off, it’s not written in the regular “do this, do that” approach. As mentioned, it’s about the lawyer and the story is told from his point of view. In a conversation with an old friend, he talks about his new life and what he learned on his journey, told in a really beautiful way - it’s honestly a great read. Reading this, you’ll discover new strategies to expand your horizon and become truly grateful for life itself.  The book is also different in the way it’s structured. In it, the main character tells the story of a fable he learned. 

This fable has seven elements that each represent an important key to a happier and more fulfilled life - and each has specific and actionable tactics to practice the principles.   So, I decided to structure this blog post in the same way: first I will tell you the fable and then I’ll quickly go over each of the seven elements and explain their meaning. I obviously won’t be able to do the book justice with a quick blog post like this so you should definitely read the book yourself, you won’t regret it. (*cough* And check out our Top 10 list on other books you should read - shameless plug.)

When it comes to Instagram, you have probably asked yourself the following question multiple times by now: How do all of these regular people manage to make so much money while you’re doing nothing different?  From the outside, it seems pretty easy, right? Just take some cute pics of yourself, post them with some smart hashtags, promote the post in your story, keep on doing this for like 3 years and voilà, you’re jet-setting around the world and your whole life is a vacation...actually, no. It’s much more than that.  

Nothing Comes From Nothing We’re all spending a rather large part of our days on our phones and social media, why not use that time wisely and productively instead? The truth is, money won’t come by itself. I’ve said countless times that Instagram is hard work, and it still stands true. If you really want to succeed, you will need to have one of three things:  

1. Time

 2. Money 

3. A large following  

This is very off-putting for a lot of people because most have none of the above - I know that feeling all too well. Spending a lot of time on something in the hopes that it will pay off later is a risk you have to take - BUT you really have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Money can speed up the process and scale it to new heights - IF you know what you’re doing. A large following is the result of either one of those factors - OR both put together. (It always is a combination of two or more)
