Summary: At 28, Ed Latimore was stuck.<br> At 33, Ed Latimore is on top of the world.<br> How did he do it?<br> By harnessing the power of momentum and pushing forward to change his life.<br> Ed is an inspiration. In five years he joined the army, thrived as an amateur boxer, graduated with a Physics degree, wrote his first two books, and he has become one of the wisest and most influential accounts on Twitter.<br> For his complete journey, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/punk-rock-preschool-podcast/id1226551045">listen to this episode of the Punk Rock Preschool Podcast.</a><br> Ed combines his unique background of physics, chess, boxing, sobriety, and all of his life experiences into a modern-day philosophy that challenges conformity and conventional thinking. Ed finds meaningful relationships between the physical, emotional, and mental worlds and breaks them down into bite-size pieces of wisdom on Twitter and in his email list.<br> Here are just a few examples:<br> <br> “If you apply force but nothing moves, you didn’t do any work”<br> * “There is no neutral position. Momentum is either with you or against you.”<br> “The more you divide your attention, the less actually gets done. This is like how when a denominator approaches infinity, the output approaches 0.”<br> “Energy cannot be created or destroyed, just transferred. You can’t create money, but you can transfer experiences and life into a book and it comes back as money.”<br> <br> Ed’s motto is to take what he’s learned the hard way and break it down so you can learn it the easy way.<br> And that’s exactly what he does <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/punk-rock-preschool-podcast/id1226551045">in this episode.</a> Listen now and start moving forward in your life!<br> Links:<br> <br> * <a href="https://twitter.com/EdLatimore">Twitter: @EdLatimore</a><br> * <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EdLatimoreBoxer/">Facebook: @EdLatimoreBoxer</a><br> * <a href="https://edlatimore.com/">Website: edlatimore.com</a><br> * <a href="https://amzn.to/2QkeZny">Book: Not Caring What Other People Think is a Superpower</a><br> * <a href="https://edlatimore.lpages.co/the-four-confidences/">Book: The Four Confidences</a><br> <br> Show Notes:<br> <br> 02:17 – Introduction<br> 05:09 – How to Apply Physics to Social Interactions<br> 11:35 – Conformity is Amoral<br> 21:56 – How to Give Kids the Superpower of Not Caring What Other People Think<br> 27:45 – Did Caring What Other People Think Ever Hold You Back?<br> 35:20 – How to Surround Yourself with Positivity<br> 42:50 – How to Find Your Purpose<br> 54:35 – Why You Should NEVER Apologize for Who You Are and What You Believe<br> 1:07:50 – Where You Can Find Ed<br> <br>
