“If people are high in narcissism they feel entitled to a larger slice of the pie.” - Dr. David Buss(click to tweet)If you haven’t heard of it before, there’s something called the dark triad. It’s a test that analyzes your exploitative personality traits: Narcissism, Psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. These traits seems to be on the rise in today’s society.In fact Tai had models who auditioned for his clothing line take the test, and had his staff not call back anyone who scored more than a 60%. As a result they had to turn away 70% of the models, which is much higher than normal.On this episode of The Tai Lopez, Tai and Dr. David Buss dive into what is making these exploitative traits increase. Download this episode today to see what is contributing to this epidemic.In the year 1900 90% of society lived in rural or small villages.

There are several ways to go about it, but one of the best strategies is to look at the different courses, and ask which way has the most potential for regret, and then take the other one.Regrets are one of the worst things you can have, so if you live you life with an eye towards always looking for the way to have the least of them as you get older, you will be happy with your decisions as you go.“Use the idea of regret minimization to make decisions: Go the way that will leave you with less regrets” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Points to Keep In MindPractical intelligence is the most important kind of intelligenceYou should never take one side of an argument without being able to argue the other side as wellThe mo

“If people like your vibe, they will be likely to buy from you” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)To be successful in anything in life takes an ability to sell, or more generally to be persuasive.

The reality is that what holds most people back is their own mindset. If you think you have unlimited potential, within your circle of competence, you really do have unlimited potential within that circle.The circle of competence refers the range of things that you are really competent in. For instance, if you are not at all naturally athletic, you do not have unlimited potential in athletic pursuits. But provided you have a certain level of competence within a pursuit or skill, your potential is probably only being limited by what you mindset is.So increase the range of your mindset, and what you believe is possible for you to achieve

“Why does life have to be about going from one pleasant experience to another?” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)This week was all about learning how to live the best life you possibly can, on your own terms.

In fact, often the problem that was supposed to be solved is simply magnified through the unintended consequences, and the same thing can be true for your life.That is why I believe that entrepreneurs, and really everyone else as well, need to learn game theory, to understand the various ways in which their decisions will affect other people’s decisions, thereby potentially changing the outcome, and sometimes reversing the good you were trying to do with the decision in the first place.Listen to this episode to learn more about game theory and how it can apply to the decisions you make.Also, make sure to checkout the new Tai Lopez Flash Briefing on Alexa!“In the modern world, you

“To be good in business, you have to be able to listen carefully and read people” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Stubbornness is a primary reason for most people’s inability to achieve what they want, and be successful on their own terms. When you are stubborn, you limit your opportunities. But the truth is that really good opportunities do not come around too often in life, so if you really want to be successful you have to seize them when they do, and take full advantage of them.In addition, a lot of people are completely unwilling and even unable to see their own faults, because of their sensitivity to input and correction from others. When you are corrected, but all you can see or feel is how hurt you are that someone else doesn’t think you know everything, you are setting yourself up for failure.Listen to this episode to hear the 3 reasons most people fail, and how you can avoid them, to achieve great things in your life.Don’t forget, you can listen to The Tai Lopez Show on Spotify!

It’s a lifestyle” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)The Gracie Diet is an eating lifestyle, developed by the Gracie family of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fame, and designed to combine the correct foods with each other, to give you energy and health to accomplish what you want in life.But even more fundamentally, in this episode I talk about why it is important to be willing to experiment. Those who have done incredible things have always been willing to experiment, to try things out and see if they work, and whether that’s diet, lifestyle, habits, or anything else, everyone is different, and so experimentation is often the only way you can know if something is right for you specifically.“When starting a new lifes

 “When you’re trying to get people’s attention, speak fast. When you’re trying to get people’s trust, speak slow.” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Most of us are scared of public speaking.But that’s only because we have yet to have a good experience getting in front of an audience.

Whatever metric or system you use to measure psychological issues, you will find that a very large number of the people that you run across exhibit those traits.But times reveals everything, so when it comes to deciding the people you will have relationships with, whether personal or business, give it some time. It’s easy for someone to pretend to be someone that they are not for a few weeks or a few months, but try to give it a year to make sure you know who they really are.Then, understand that everyone has a little weird in them. Everyone has a different mix of character traits, with desirable and less desirable aspects mixed in. Just make sure the weirdness doesn’t out-weigh the rest too much. All

“Don’t try to please everyone. Just do you” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)It feels like the level of narcissism in the world is continually increasing. Just take a look at your Instagram feed, and you will see it proudly on display. It seems like nothing is more important to people today than themselves and their looks.Maybe it’s time to take a step back and reevaluate our emphasis. Put more effort into the truly important things in life, and less into the ones that don’t matter. Put less effort into how you look, and more into what you do.At the end of the day, you can’t please everyone, so don’t worry about it. Just do you, and do good in the world.“Be willing to experiment. Don’t be close-minded” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)Points to Keep In MindDon’t try to please everyone.

Today, most people don’t. Most people don’t read at all, but if they do read, it’s probably either light, fluffy novels or maybe a self-help book here and there. But what about history? What can a deeper understanding of history do for your life, in helping you achieve the best life possible?Today, I’m going through some moments in history, and what can be learned from them. Because without and understanding of history, there really is no way that we can predict the future. But because history tends to repeat itself, if we develop an understanding and knowledge of history and the trends that come back time and time again,

“Age is irrelevant. You don’t know when you’re going to die.” - Tai Lopez(click to tweet)People lie, but numbers don’t.As our businesses and brands grow, we attract more and more people into our network. These individuals will have things to say about our success, and if we’re not careful, we can become distracted by that external noise and lose focus of what’s actually important.That’s why on today’s episode of The Tai Lopez Show, we are debating a hater online. When we acknowledge the peanut gallery, we gain insight into the lapses in judgement in those around us. Thus, we are able to move forward with a more accurate vision for our future.Tune in to today’s episode to learn how to best respond to your haters!Don’t forget!
