How To Never Feel Stressed Again

Want to START a business? Go here: https://skool.com/games

If you’re new to my channel, my name is Alex Hormozi. I’m the founder and managing partner of Acquisition.com. It’s a family office, which is just a formal way of saying we invest our own money into companies. Our 10 portfolio companies bring in over 0,000,000+ per year. Our ownership stake varies between 20% and 100% of them. Given this is a YT channel, and anyone can claim anything, I’ll give you some stuff you can google to verify below.

How I got here…

21: Graduated Vanderbilt in 3 years Magna Cum Laude, and took a fancy consulting job.
23 yrs old: Left my fancy consulting job to start a business (a gym).
24 yrs old: Opened 5 gym locations.
26 yrs old: Closed down 6th gym. Lost everything.
26 yrs old: Got back to launching gyms (launched 33). Then, lost everything for a 2nd time.
26 yrs old: In desperation, started licensing model as a hail mary. It worked.
27 yrs old: “Gym Launch” does M profit the next 6 months. Then M profit next 12 months.
28 yrs old: Started Prestige Labs. M the first year.
29 yrs old: Launched ALAN, a software company for agencies to work leads for customers. Scaled to .7mmo within 6 months.
31 yrs old: Sold 75% of UseAlan to a strategic buyer in an all stock deal.
31 yrs old: Sold 66% of Gym Launch & Prestige Labs at .2M valuation in all-cash deal to American Pacific Group. (you can google it)
31 yrs old: Started our family office Acquisition.com. We invest and scale companies using the M in distributions we had taken + the cash from the .2M exit.
32 yrs old: Started making free content showing how we grow companies to make real business education accessible to everyone (and) to attract business owners to invest or scale their businesses.
34 yrs old: I became co-owner of https://Skool.com to help the many people who want to start a business online do so.

Today: Our portfolio now does 0M/yr between 10 companies. The largest doing 0M/yr the smallest doing M per year. Our ownership varies between 20% and 100% ownership of the companies. Many of them we invested in early and helped grow (which is how we make our money – not youtube videos).

To all the gladiators in the arena, we’re all in the middle of writing our own stories. The worse the monsters, the more epic the story.

You either get an epic outcome or an epic story. Both mean you win.

Keep crushing. May your desires be greater than your obstacles.

Never quit,

Alex

*FULL DISCLOSURE*
I make content to make money – just – on a longer time horizon than most. I want to build trust with business owners so we can find the best ones and help them scale. And if they’re awesome, write them a check and go all the way as partners.

NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk for medical advice. While some viewers might find advice provided in this talk to be helpful as a complementary approach, several claims around brain size and lifestyle are not corroborated by sufficient scientific evidence. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdf

Chronic stress is devastating for your brain. It ruins your memory, your attention and concentration and your emotional resilience. The brain areas that help execute these functions literally deteriorate.

Luckily, brain science has revealed many ways to prevent or counteract this. In her talk Niki Korteweg shares the four most important things you can do to keep your brain healthy and working at its very best.

Niki Korteweg is a Dutch science journalist with a PhD in neurobiology, and she has been writing about health and brain science for almost 20 years. Ironically, after experiencing a burnout about 10 years ago, her own brain started to let her down. It was the start of a quest in the scientific literature to discover what actually helps to guard our brain against stress and make it work better than ever. As a science journalist at NRC Handelsblad with a PhD in neurobiology, Niki is very knowledgeable about brain research, medical science, and psychology. She is a versatile journalist: she writes features, interviews, news articles, and books, gives lectures and teaches about science writing. After experiencing burnout in 2010, Niki published the book ‘Een beter brein’ (A better brain) in 2017. In this book, she discusses the fast-moving developments in neuroscience and all the ways in which we can use those insights to take good care of our brains. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

What nutrients or deficiencies cause twitching?

pain No Comments »

ChrisMorell asks on Twitter: “What vitamins/nutrients would you recommend for muscle twitching (eyes, legs)? Recurring issue since I was 20. Supplementing w/ magnesium g. ~350mg per day, plenty of D, K2, E & A. Did Genova ion panel last year but maybe time for another testing round?”

and Kori Dunlap asks on YouTube: “I”m low on B2 according to my NutrEval results so I’m just taking double of a B complex. However when you mentioned eye twitching my Sons test came back low B6, so he is taking that from Thorne, but this is going in the 3rd week and now I’m noticing eye twitching. Please advise. Thank you so much for your valued information!!🙏”

Disclaimer: This is educational in nature. I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.

Condensed answer (see video for details): Twitching could involve excitatory or inhibitory amino acids (especially glutamate, glycine, GABA, and maybe acetylcholine), electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium), acid-base balance (beta-alanine, carnosine, and bicarbonate can be relevant), B vitamins (especially especially thiamin, especially niacin, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid, but also biotin, folate, and B12), and anything that impacts energy metabolism (caffeine, exercise, exertion, stress, hyperthyroid, hypothyroid, diabetes, inborn errors of metabolism, etc).

Hello Everyone! I want to share my Vitamin D Deficiency story with you. There are quite many symptoms that are derived from Vit D and not everyone experiences the same set of symptoms. I hope to share my healing journey with the public for the first time. Hopefully, this will shine some light on how important it is to take your vitamins and when to know if your symptoms are low vitamin D symptoms.

What Is Stress?

health No Comments »

The word ‘stress’ is quite often used in a negative sense. But stress isn’t always bad and it is a normal part of life. In fact, sometimes stress can be positive and can spur one to be productive, creative, prepared for challenges, and stay motivated and focused.

However, if stress interferes with your daily life, you may be experiencing chronic stress. With the right help, it is treatable and can be managed.

If you are currently experiencing chronic stress or know someone who does, reaching out for help and support is the first step. Always remember #YouAreNotAlone

Cavity Alert: Recognizing the 5 Symptoms You Need to Know

pain No Comments »

.

Chapters

0:00 Introduction
0:31 Toothache
0:54 Sensitivity
1:18 Discoloration
1:36 Bad breathe
1:53 Holes or pits

Maintaining good oral health is essential for a bright smile and overall well-being. One of the most common dental issues that people face is tooth cavities. These small holes in the teeth can lead to discomfort, pain, and more severe dental problems if left untreated. In this video, we will explore five important signs that could indicate the presence of a tooth cavity. By recognizing these signs early on, you can take the necessary steps to address the issue and protect your oral health.

Sensitivity to Hot and Cold:
If you experience a sharp or lingering pain when consuming hot or cold foods and beverages, it could be a sign of a tooth cavity. Tooth enamel protects the nerves inside your teeth, and when cavities erode the enamel, sensitivity can occur. If you find yourself wincing at the thought of ice cream or hot coffee, it’s time to consider a dental check-up.

Persistent Toothache:
A persistent toothache, especially when eating or applying pressure, is a strong indicator of a cavity. As cavities progress and reach the inner layers of the tooth, they can cause significant discomfort. Ignoring a toothache could lead to more severe dental issues, so it’s important to address it promptly.

Visible Holes or Pits:
Sometimes, cavities are visible to the naked eye. If you notice small holes, pits, or dark spots on your teeth, it’s a sign that decay may be present. Regular dental examinations can catch these early, preventing further damage.

Bad Breath:
Unpleasant breath that doesn’t go away even after brushing and using mouthwash could be linked to tooth cavities. Bacteria thrive in the crevices of decayed teeth, leading to foul-smelling breath. Addressing the cavity can help improve your breath.

Changes in Tooth Color:
Cavities can alter the color of your teeth. If you notice white, brown, or black spots on the surface of your teeth, it’s time to consult a dentist. Discoloration is often a sign that the enamel is compromised and decay is setting in.

Conclusion:
Being aware of these five signs can empower you to take control of your oral health. If you suspect you may have a tooth cavity, don’t hesitate to schedule a dental appointment. Remember, early detection and treatment can prevent cavities from causing more extensive damage to your teeth. Your smile is worth protecting, and by staying vigilant, you can ensure that your teeth remain healthy and strong for years to come.
