Summoning Your Superhuman

September 25, 2025

All right, Luke. Well, I want to be respectful of your time. And I know you and I can talk for ages and ages. but a question I ask everybody is what does summoning your superhuman mean to you? Summoning my superhuman, summoning. So can you, can you, can you unpack that a little bit more? Summoning my superhuman. Yeah. Well, I guess the big emphasis is always trying to be better, to be your best self. And I think you, you definitely live by that. So I, hence why the whole podcast is, is summoning your superhuman, right? So do you want to help teach people how to find whatever's in them to, to find a career that they're just as passionate about as we are? Cause they can see us like, man, they really love what they do. It's like, I want to be doing something that I really love or a coach might be listening to this and they might want to reach out and want to like learn more so um but for you in your life and where you at you know you achieved a lot and i know you say that you like you still waiting for the you know you are not satisfied with what you've achieved you're always looking for more right so um what does somebody you're superhuman then mean for you like what how do you continually find that passionate desire within i guess that's a really good question i like that that's good um look i don't know i'm just like i just have this i've always lived by zigzagler's statement of help enough people get what you want out of life eventually you'll get what you want so that's kind of my underlying fundamental value right and the way i do that is by teaching like um let me let me teach you my experiences let me teach you through my education um and let me let me have a big impact on everyone else through you right and then you at some point those students will become teachers as well and then they'll pass that forward so it's to me it's like building a legacy right like i don't need to be like the charles paul i don't need people to have my name and remember me and all that i want to be remembered through passing that through other people and it is true what they say if you're passionate about what you do. You never work a day in your life. And I'm not going to, I'm not going to try to fool people and say, there aren't days that are really hard. There are days where I just don't want to do this, but those are very few. That's days where I've been traveling and I've been working for like 28 days straight, 12 hours a day. And at some point you just burn yourself out. You take a week off, you know, you do some mushrooms and you play some video games and you decompress, you go, okay, I'm ready to go again. It's like, I just have such a love for this that I just don't feel like I ever have to work. Right. So, you know, that kind of summing my superhumanists, it doesn't matter what industry you're in. If you can find something you're passionate about, you won you won you won think that you working You won think that it a pain in the ass You want to do more It never be a factor of how do I make more money doing less It's more of a factor of, how can I have a bigger impact? How can I do even more than I'm doing now? Can I channel my Superman? And like, how do I make this more economical, more efficient, faster? How do I relay this information in a better way? how do i get people to get a better understanding how do i simplify the process um and like that's i guess what some people if you said what's your superhuman power i think a lot of people say that that i have an ability to take a really complex subject and and refine it down a really simple concept without losing any of the context or losing any of the power of that information yeah yeah absolutely yeah cool i have a really hard time talking about myself i know you still talked to me that made it sound about like i think that the seed is is the desire is about other people right like we're both fueled by our desire to help that it's hard to to just hone it back down into because we're so satisfied like it's a level of satisfaction when i was listening to you it's like job satisfaction people would normally call it job satisfaction yeah it's like it's a it's a level of satisfaction with what you do and the pride and the obsession and accommodation of all of the above and having fun. Right. Cause like, even though we've talked quite seriously, I guess today, but it's like behind the camera and behind the scenes, we like to actually laugh and have a lot of fun. So it's like you can have all of those things. If you find the right things for you or you find, you could be in a job that you maybe don't see the positive impact that you're making, that we're in a position where we can, we can see it generally that we hear about it. of like how you helped me has trickled into this and we're like oh it's amazing like that stuff like that's better than any medal that i could have given you know it's like it's well it's like if you like it's always being the love languages thing and uh and mine would be like words of affirmation like if you tell me i doing a good job and i in an impact in your life that like i still need to be paid because Danny got bills and he got dogs and a wife and all that but uh and you gotta keep the business right But like um for me like 50 of the salary that I make is just hearing other coaches go, wow, like that stuff you helped me with. I gave it to all my clients and I can't believe how well that worked. I'm like, awesome. And it's like all the other coaches in my facility want to know how I'm doing this. And I'm telling them like, I'm giving bits and piece of what you're doing like oh yeah that's that's that's what it's all about yeah like take it and give it to other people you know and let's let's just make everything better make the industry better so like half the reward is just like having that impact on people and i'm so and i've never made it a a money focused business because when you make it that way you have to make it we're selling a service we're selling education it has to be about the students it can never be about getting rich off the industry right it's just like how can we keep the keep the train going so we can help even more people and i'm just i'm just every day i wake up and i can't believe people actually want to hear me talk and like want to actually like listen right and and sometimes i go i can't believe i can even stand up there and do that because i was terrified of public speaking. When I went to college for computer science, I had to take a mass communications course and I was shitting bricks every time I got to talk. And when I did my first lecture or two lectures, I got shitting bricks. And now people go, do you get nervous? I go, no, I can't wait to get up there because I'm having so much fun and I'm hoping that everybody else is having so much fun. So yeah, man, I think this is my dream job. Yeah, absolutely. Awesome.
