This will sound like utter nonsense to anyone who loves and believes in the massive value of exercise.

But when it comes to exercise, and I'm not talking about overtraining or injury or anything like that... Can there be a possible pitfall?

Can exercise or being too overly enthusiastic in fitness cause us to stop feeling those "good feelings" we get when we finish? Can it bore some of us?

And I'm not talking about the career athlete here. But for everyone else who either hasn't gotten into working out, or has been consistent for quite a few years...

What is the negative consequence of always being in a "peak state of fitness?" You might think it's none. But maybe we lose our ability to appreciate the peak state we are in?

Food for though. Listen to the episode to hear more. 

With so many people entering the stock market over quarantine comes much criticism. Lot's of people including regulators seem to be very cautious when it comes to letting "novices" trade.

But all of that has changed with free trading platforms like Robinhood.

And with every trader, comes people with advice on what to do.

And here are 3 common "tips" people new to the markets often learn, but aren't always so helpful.

There's a common "phrase" many of us hear or tell ourselves that stops us dead in our tracks.

And many people who have a desire to succeed or have set big goals face this problem, particularly today.

And there are many, such as...

"I'm not good enough." "I might fail." "That's going to take a lot of work." "I don't want to get too successful!"

And those are all harmful to progress.

But there is one that can be more detrimental than all the others because it stops many of us from even trying.

How do you solve some of your biggest problems? How do you build better relationships? How do you get your boss/friend/co-worker/mentor to like you more? How do you launch that business you've been dreaming of? How do you come up with endless ideas for your articles/job/podcast/Instagram/and more...? How can you improve your mind, your body, and your life all with one daily exercise?

And this isn't some IQ training exercise that requires you to improve your memory, or practice math equations, or pattern recognition skills. This is an exercise anyone can get good at, and take steps to get better in just about every area of your life.

While learning from the most successful people in the world won't make success "fall in your lap," there is a lot that can be learned from them to at least add some valuable lessons to our lives.

And Buffett has had so many articles, videos, books, and more about him. And many recordings provide lessons directly from Buffett and his esteemed business partner Charlie Munger. It is absolutely amazing how much you can learn from their many books from:

"Poor Charlie's Almanack," to "All I Want to Know is Where I'm Going to Die So I'll Never Go There," to "The Essays of Warren Buffett," and all the videos and articles between.

But success at that level isn't easy. And while Buffett and Munger are a once in a century business partnership, and their minds were simply ideal for the time they started in business, in terms of "capability" - they were experts of applying the basics. Often touting the idea that no form of "remarkable genius" went into all of their ideas.

And when we want to learn from people, one of the best things we can do is understand the way they think, their beliefs, and their approach to the various areas of life.

So we come to this episode. If you've ever felt like you wanted to be like Warren Buffett, maybe these questions can help you get insight. You might be surprised at just how difficult it can be to pursue a life like two of the most successful men of our century, yet at the same time, how "within reach" their approach to life is.

We live in a time that provides one of the biggest opportunities ever.

Imagine if Da Vinci, van Gogh, Poe, Algieri, or any other great artists of history had the same opportunities today to share their art. Being distracted and unmotivated aside, we are in an amazing time for creative people to thrive.

And not just because they are "artistic" and add culture to society.

But because businesses need creative people more than ever. Entrepreneurs, startups, small businesses, and big businesses need creative people to get the message about their products, services, or brands out.

And with as many ideas, products, or inventions that are already out there, there is an endless opportunity for creatives to share their work while also finding sponsorships, business partnerships, and more.

Check out this episode to hear these ideas and more.

There is a lot of criticism of EV's and the whole renewable energies trend. Some claim that the process of creating things like solar panels or electric vehicles, or the process of storing and charging an EV still requires the burning of fossil fuels which result in lot's of emissions.

But this podcast isn't about whether the environment is hurt or harmed by the transition to clean energy sources. 

But here's why even if EV's do create emissions when they are charging at home through the local power plant (even though they don't on the road), it may still contribute to a cleaner environment.

And much of it has to do with the centralization of emissions which can be contained easier.

Tens of billions of dollars enter the market from new investors monthly, at least since the beginning of quarantine. With so many opportunities, free trades through brokerages and easy to use, tap a button "buy" and "sell" orders, it only makes sense.

And while we've heard of stories of people losing lot's of money... There are also many new trader/investors who are making money. And they aren't just investing in blue chip, dividend paying, S&P 500, or other companies on the big indexes either.

There has been a renewed interest in a special category of stocks that are helping return mid to high double-digit percentages. Listen to this episode to find out more.

Although Facebook's stock price has dropped a bit since the news of Antitrust lawsuits against them, there is a light at the end of this tunnel.

Whether Facebook wins the lawsuits, or loses the lawsuits, one thing is for sure, there is opportunity. Will Facebook pull a Google move and create a conglomerate like Alphabet? Will it break all of it's separate businesses into smaller companies?

There are quite a few moves Facebook can do regardless of the lawsuits, and hopefully some of those opportunities will be made public for investors or traders to jump in on.
