And that life diamond is saying, look, the default is if you don't do anything, you're going to go towards fear.

That's human nature.

You're going to start thinking about yourself.

You're going to think about everything you want, but can't control.

You're going to start comparing yourself to others.

Your subconscious mind is going to remind you of all your failures and weaknesses.

And you're going to move towards anxiety and fear.

So you need a clear, intentional plan and path to live an extraordinary life.

And that path is based on the three most powerful resources, I believe, in the universe is love, wisdom, and courage.

Whereas love, and when I say love, there's something that really needs to be clarified because...

In America, in Western culture, English only has one word for love.

And I love board games.

I love sushi, Korean barbecue, and Thai curry, and many things I love.

But those are like things that are pleasurable.

And the love that I'm talking about is sacrificial love, the kind that brings joy.

Because pleasure brings happiness, and there's a very big difference between the two.

Happiness, to me, I define as a positive temporary feeling based on what's happening.

Good circumstances, good feelings.

Bad circumstances, you're not getting good feelings.

Joy, on the other hand, I define as a deep sense of well-being, freedom, and gratitude, an inner buoyancy and delight that comes from love.
