Ed Latimore is a boxer with a physics degree, a Twitter philosopher who stopped drinking and started building. In this conversation, he explains why pain is better than comfort, why detachment makes you strong, and why you should never talk about your goals—only your results. It’s unforgettable.

Here are a few highlights from our conversation:
- How the painful end to a relationship lit a fire under Ed that hasn’t stopped burning
- How Ed knows when he’s bitten off more than he can chew and needs to ease up on the accelerator
- Why motivation is a terrible way to achieve great things (and what to do instead)
- The unlikely way that Ed’s runaway best selling book came about
- Why Ed thinks every person should step into the boxing ring at least once in their life
- How people get stuck on the “dopamine treadmill” which feels productive but actually gets you nowhere (this is the kiss of death if you want to accomplish any important goal)
- Ed’s brilliant philosophy on pain and suffering that will change the way you view hardships in your life
- Ed’s somewhat controversial approach to coaching children and getting the very best out of them
- The most important element of creating a positive habit (most people get this wrong)
And more.
After listening to this warrior poet, you won’t look at life the same again.
Enjoy this amazing conversation.
