Episode 103: Kevin Palmieri & Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck

ABOUT KEVIN

Kevin is the founder and co-host of the Next Level University podcast. Early in his life, Kevin found “success”, but after a brush with near suicide he realized he wasn´t living a life he truly wanted. He became passionate about self improvement and decided to make it his purpose in life to impact as many people as possible by becoming a role model, podcaster, and speaker. He has succeeded at making his podcast one of the top 100 with almost 1700 episodes and  one million listens in over 170 countries. He has taken his life to the next level and achieved both personal and professional success.

CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS

  • Identity Crisis: "I was quite literally in the best shape of my life. But internally, I was miserable and unfulfilled and depressed and anxious and all those things."
  • Living Unconsciously
  • Kevin's ideations of suicide and what pulled him back from the edge.
  • What happens when your awareness doesn't reconcile to your environments?
  • How do we get a little better?
  • The problem with your expectations being your desires.
  • Overnight Success vs. Overnight Awareness
  • "Don't ego up when you're scared."
  • Human beings are malleable: "The way you are today is not the way that you must remain."
  • Fixed Mindset vs. Growth Mindset.
  • What failure looks like.
  • What mentorship can look like when it comes to the Fixed vs. Growth mindsets.
  • "The thing that would benefit us the most is the thing we run fastest away from."

    • The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Kevin is, How do you become hyperconscious in order to become intentional about getting a little bit better as you go?
