Do you see yourself as normal, or do you embrace your weirdness? Dan Sullivan and Jeffrey Madoff explore the nature of normality and weirdness, reflecting on their personal experiences. They discuss the importance of self-consistency, the impact of external perceptions, and how curiosity fuels personal growth and authenticity.

Show Notes:

Most people consider themselves normal and view anyone who perceives them as weird as weird in turn.

You don’t have to take it personally if someone calls you weird.

As an entrepreneur, you’ll likely find that other entrepreneurs share your understanding of what’s considered normal, more so than those outside your field.

You can remain true to yourself across a variety of activities and experiences.

Some people view significant life events as opportunities to reinvent themselves.

If you’re consistent, people who reinvent themselves might mystify you.

Reinventing oneself often involves distancing from people from the past.

A good story is better than a good statistic.

If what you’re doing works for you, that’s a solid reason to remain consistent in your approach.

A person behaving inconsistently might be trying to please others rather than please themselves.
