  • Kill Your Clone
    Jun 9 2025

    What if you could become a better version of yourself every single day? Join us as we engage with Tom Kier, a master of combatives and edged weapons, who reveals the secret power of mindset in conquering life's challenges. Tom introduces us to the concept of "Kill your Clone," a compelling mental model that advocates for incremental self-improvement, encouraging us to outdo our past selves daily. Through Tom's unique insights, we explore how a fortified mindset can not only navigate stressful situations but also serve as a powerful tool for success across various aspects of life, far beyond just combat scenarios.

    Battling bad habits can feel like an endless war, especially when it comes to something as tenacious as smoking. Our conversation uncovers strategies to manage and eventually overcome ingrained habits by setting realistic targets and crafting a personalized change plan. We delve into the complexities of internal conflicts, highlighting how the multiple desires within us can impact our choices. With a focus on gradual change, we provide a blueprint to reduce cigarette consumption and integrate flexibility, like cheat meals, to ensure that these transformations are sustainable and effective.

    Readiness is more than just a word—it's a formula consisting of awareness, willingness, and preparedness. Tom breaks down these components, shedding light on the importance of emotional commitment and the real-world steps necessary to achieve our goals. We explore the pitfalls of primary security concerns in life and the dangers of becoming fixated on desires, using the metaphor of the "Frozen Lake" as a vivid illustration. This episode also emphasizes the crucial role of a trusted support network, or "tribe," in helping us navigate life's slippery surfaces and maintain our course towards personal growth.
