On today’s episode, we have Jeremy Slate. Jeremy is one of my oldest entrepreneur friends and his podcast was the first podcast I was ever on about five years ago.  We have been friends, colleagues, and collaborators ever since.  He has interviewed hundreds if not thousands of great minds in many different areas.  He has really been working on distilling everything he has learned into one powerful book called Extraordinary.  We are going to learn about what it takes to be extraordinary in this episode. 

Jeremy Ryan Slate is the founder of the Create Your Own Life Podcast, a show to help people create life on their own terms. He studied literature at Oxford University and is a former champion powerlifter turned new media entrepreneur.

On This Episode:

  • He was able to use his adversity as fuel to power whatever the next things were going to be. 
  • People that are extraordinary have realized that it is up to them to create the life they want.  They realize that there is this other principle that can guide your life.  
  • Extraordinary people look at what is comfortable and they are willing to go harder and longer and that goes back to adversity.  Everything you want is on the other side of that discomfort. 
  • And so much more!
