EP 131 - Why Failure is your Best Teacher - Kamran Loghman
Join us for a transformative episode of the "Finding Better" podcast as host John Suzuki sits down with the extraordinary Kamran Loghman! Discover how decades of leadership experience as an accomplished CEO, an MBA professor of business and Eastern philosophy, and even the inventor of pepper spray, have shaped his unique insights into what it truly means to "find better" in life.
Kamran, an expert in enlightened warrior traditions, shares profound wisdom gleaned from 50 years of practicing Japanese and India's classical warrior disciplines. Dive deep into the concept of "Rise of Giants," a framework for reinventing how we live and work, and transforming leaders and nations of the future.
In this episode, you'll explore:
1. The Heroic Journey: Understand how ancient warrior traditions and the "heroic journey"—a concept famously explored by George Lucas for Star Wars—provide a timeless template for navigating life's challenges, both external and internal.
2. Beyond Success and Failure: Learn why studying failure is often a better teacher than success and how embracing "battle wounds" and regrets is crucial for growth.
3. The Four Pillars of a Fulfilled Life: Discover the four essential "legs of the table" for a balanced existence: mental and physical fitness, relationships, prosperity (finances), and your philosophy/purpose of life.
4. Finding Your Purpose: Uncover how introspection and quieting the mind (like the ancient practice of Zen meditation for Samurai) can help you peel back layers of "noise" to reveal your innate purpose.
5. Overcoming Challenges: Gain insights into practical strategies from the "17 gates" of the warrior tradition, including questioning beliefs, understanding perception, developing vitality, and slaying the "dragon within" (addictions and self-sabotage).
Kamran Loghman's "Rise of Giants" philosophy emphasizes that each of us can choose to rise as a "giant" and live a fulfilled life by embodying balance and purpose, not necessarily by becoming a celebrity.
