Tom Bilyeu is a filmmaker and serial entrepreneur who founded Quest Nutrition with the goal of ending metabolic disease and adding value to people. Tom now helps solve the problem of poor mindset through his media studio Impact Theory. His goal is to influence the cultural subconscious by creating content that empowers people. Tom talks to your host Travis Chappell about why it’s actually impossible to see the world as it truly is, how Impact Theory plans on beating Disney at its own game and one of the skills that Tom has worked extremely hard to develop that allows him to have the success he has today.

Episode Highlights:

Tom talks about his childhood with the mentality of doing what you’re told and keeping your nose to the grindstone.

Tom held a job since he was a child if he wanted to buy the things he wanted.

He started getting into film first from watching movies, then from his dad bringing home a camera.

He went to USC film school and worked like crazy to do a senior thesis film and it didn’t go well.

After school, he was edging toward depression and took on menial jobs.

He chose to believe that people can learn new things as adults and he got into personal development.

How Tom bridged between self-development to his career in a software company.

Wealth is a powerful resource, but it’s just a resource.

How Tom gave up his equity in the software company and decided to find Quest.

Tom led Quest by building community, being a good person and helping people.

It’s better to have money than not, but it’s basically an amplifier of who you are.

The most fundamental thing you have to change is your perspective.

The only way humans assimilate disruptive information is through narrative.

What Tom has learned from Disney’s branding and applies to his own business.

How Tom has become good at articulating messaging and public speaking.

Deep dive into the quote “there is no greater revenge than unmitigated success.”

Deep dive into the quote “it is impossible to see the world as it is.”

Deep dive into the quote “there’s always room for the best.”

Tom believes that ultimately what you know is more important, but you shouldn’t discount who you know.

You have to add value and create a reciprocal relationship.

Tom’s best advice to level up their relationships – read books and listen to podcasts.

Why switching costs could be wasting a ton of your time.

3 Key Points:

The only way to pursue money and be fulfilled is if you’re pursuing something that brings you joy.

It’s not possible to see the world as it is because of the deep limbic system.
