Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Timestamps stay in sync with the live audio

The single greatest lesson I ever learned in my career that profoundly changed the course of my life was multiple time best selling author third most watched TED Talk of all time. The return of Simon Sinek. Thank you very much. Last 30, 40 years, we've doubled down on how do I find love, how do I find happiness, we've doubled down on selfishness. But now in a complicated messy world, we haven't been practicing and developing the skills of taking care of each other. And that's what we need now more than ever. Do you ever give up on someone? Um I have a feeling I've never expressed this openly. Gen Z are the least resilient generation. But they're really good at presenting a confidence that they don't have. This young generation seems less capable to deal with stress than previous generations, that is true. Going from relationship to relationship to relationship, from job to job to job. There's no stigma to quitting.

Flash forward five years. And what's gonna happen is an e an employer is gonna look at them be like I can't take the risk. Everything we're talking about today. Comes right back to those human skills. That we are lacking.

How to listen, how to give and receive feedback, how to have a difficult conversation. And the thing we have to deal with more than anything is fear. Fear that is the underlying thing why we don't have honest conversations. Let me give you some honesty then. What is the greatest fear you have about how you're currently living your life? I was very insecure about admitting That I can.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.
