  If by Rudyard Kipling👍 Recommends

  …sharing a classical poem about resilience and equanimity in success and failure

  “One of my favorite quotes from a poem that by, there's a great poet named Rudyard Kipling. I don't know if you know him or not, but Rudyard Kipling wrote this poem called If. And when I was a kid, I had to memorize this poem and it stuck with me my whole life. But my favorite line is the last one. And it says, if you can meet triumph and disaster and treat those two imposters just the same, you know, so no matter how much success you have or how much failure, like they're both imposters.”

• MOOVLAB chair👍 Recommends

  …describing an innovative office chair designed to promote active sitting and back health

  “And so he said, uh, you know, basically, um, our concept is, is that the key to health and wellness is to always keep moving. And everyone jokes about me. Cause they say he's always moving. And so he had me as like, what do you mean? Always moving. And so he said, basically there were these engineers from Nike that he knew back in his day, they developed an office chair that sits and it pivots two different ways. So it moves this way. I wish I had one right now and it moves this way. And so basically by doing this, it creates, it takes all the pressure out of your lower back. And so I've always had like lower back problems. I think from all the golf I play and, and surfing and years of tennis. And so sitting on zooms or doing podcasts, like really is not good for me because I'm sitting still and there's like no blood flow on my back and all this. And so this was right before I was thinking about doing the podcast. And so he's like, do you mind? Can I come over and show it to you? And I sat in this chair, it's called the move lab chair.”

• Morning Water👍 Recommends

  …discussing a new hydration supplement product focused on morning wellness routines

  “And then what Kristen also talks about is this thing called mirror neurons. And basically what they've found is that people who spend a ton of time together. So parents and kids or romantic partners, your neurons start mirroring each other. And so one of the best ways, you know, that an entrepreneur can detach from outcome is to also practice that with their whole team. Because if everyone in the team, and I find this even with, you know, one of the companies I'm building right now is called morning water. And it's this morning hydration company. We launched it about six months ago. It's just absolutely ripping. I mean, I think it's one of the fastest growing hydration in what it's really simple. It's creatine, L-theanine, magnesium, all these things that I used to take supplements every morning. We put them in this like one simple, you know, packet that you pour in.”
