In this episode I get into why we fall off track, why external validation is a black hole your soul will never fill, and what Guy Ritchie's movie Revolver taught me about separating ego from identity. We also talk about: — Why failure is the first thing you should teach yourself (not victory) — Casey Neistat, Vegeta, and the compounding power of daily effort — How nature kills the ego faster than any philosophy book — Why nobody actually cares about your goals — and how that's liberating — Climbing Kilimanjaro, Alan Watts, and the Prodigal Son parable — What it actually means to prove something to YOURSELF If you've been sitting on something you "should" be doing — this one's for you.

In this week's episode of Chris's Corner, I explore the captivating world of James Luceno's Darth Plagueis. I discuss how Disney could adapt this rich narrative into a film to rejuvenate the Star Wars franchise. Dive into the intricate story of Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious, and discover the roles of other intriguing characters such as Count Dooku, Darth Maul, and Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas. This podcast highlights the immense potential of this story for a cinematic masterpiece, and why Disney would be missing a golden opportunity if they don't bring it to the big screen.

This week on Chris's Corner I speak about my experience running the London Marathon 2024 in 3 hours and 23 minutes. An experience I had been training for 9 years to be able to accomplish. This podcast really shows the essence of the mentality it takes to get to this point in my 9 year running career and how I will never stop no matter what.
