    May 2 2025
    In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host Ted engages with high-performance coach Adam Smith, who shares insights on personal development, the pursuit of potential, and the internal blocks that high achievers face. They discuss the importance of progress over perfection, the role of beliefs and standards in achieving success, and the necessity of stillness in a fast-paced world. Adam emphasizes that purpose is not something to be found but created through action and progress, and he highlights the common struggle of feeling 'not good enough' among men, particularly in high-pressure environments. TakeawaysThe pursuit of potential is a continuous journey.Progress equals happiness, not destination.Many men feel they are not good enough.Purpose is something we create, not find.The 'when and then' mentality hinders action.High achievers often struggle with internal blocks.Beliefs shape our actions and results.Discipline is key to high performance.Standards determine the quality of our work.Stillness allows for powerful action and reflection. Meditation can feel uncomfortable due to the overwhelming number of thoughts we have.We often avoid pain rather than seeking pleasure, which affects our perception of experiences.Being fully present can help us appreciate the world around us.Stillness is essential for achieving inner peace and calm.Many people feel they are 'doing it wrong' regarding mindfulness practices.Compartmentalization can lead to chaos in different areas of life.Success can be redefined to include joy and fulfillment, not just achievement.The cost of unchecked ambition can be high, including divorce and mental health issues.Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.You don't have to hit rock bottom to initiate change in your life.Chapters 00:18 - Introduction to the Modern Man Podcast 01:17 - Adam Smith: The High Performance Coach 02:16 - The Pursuit of Potential 04:13 - Understanding Purpose and Progress 07:07 - The 'When and Then' Mentality 09:18 - Internal Blocks for High Achievers 12:07 - The Role of Beliefs and Standards 15:24 - Discipline and High Performance 20:14 - The Importance of Stillness 23:59 - The Challenge of Meditation and Mindfulness 27:31 - The Importance of Stillness for Inner Peace 30:10 - Compartmentalization and Its Impact on Life 35:43 - The High Cost of Unchecked Ambition 38:56 - Redefining Success: Finding Joy and PurposeSmith’s Links Website:agameconsultancy.comLinkedIn: Adam SmithInstagram: agameconsultancyFacebook: agameconsultancyPodcast: agameunfilteredFree eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights 🤝CONNECT WITH THE MODERN MAN🤝Visit our website: themodernmanshow.comFollow us on Twitter: TheModernMan8 Follow us on Instagram: @TheModernManShow Subscribe to our YouTube channel: The Modern ManSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
