In this episode Steve and Fobby discuss:

• Deeper than just the numbers 
• Starting each day with gratitude 
• Being spiritual yet realistic 
• Creating insights out of insights 

Key Takeaways: 

• Go beyond the numbers, think about what’s really going to make you happy. Stop and take a moment to reflect because you’ll find out eventually, that none of these numbers are gonna make you happy. 
• Start each day with gratitude, fill every second of it with contentment, and live in the present moment.  
• You don’t have to be living in isolation away from civilization in order to experience a spiritual moment. You can be in the city, with a job, and still be mindful, spiritual and content. 
• People will find their own meaning in what you put out there. They might be able to learn your principles, but the best case scenario is for them to also create their own insights out of your insights. 

“I remember clearly my dad saying ‘you know, you can meditate a lot more relaxingly if the bill collectors aren’t calling your phone all the time’... there’s a balancing act between the spiritual life and the real life..” - Fobby Naghmi
