\u201cHUMBLE VOICES CARRY FURTHER IN THIS WORLD.\u201d\nAll of us want to be loved and accepted. It\u2019s how we were brought into this world, and it\u2019s how we should be spending our lives.\nI\u2019ve learned that if you want to get love you have to learn to give it, but it\u2019s not always that easy.\nI\u2019m sure you\u2019ve found yourself around people who you may find creepy or that may hate on you for seemingly no reason.\nYour knee jerk reaction is probably to respond with an attack back, but that does the opposite of what anyone wants.\nHate breeds hate and love breeds love.\nAt the end of the day, how do you want to be remembered? I know I want to be remembered as someone who lit the way with love, compassion, and really tried to understand everyone I encountered.\nOn this episode of The School of Greatness I\u2019ve brought you someone who has been spreading nothing but love around the entire world: Bob Goff.\nBob is one of the most interesting people I\u2019ve ever met.

He\u2019s saved lives by educating witch doctors in other countries, and has even become the Uganda consolut to the US.\nThis was easily one of the most interesting interviews I\u2019ve ever done.\nBob\u2019s mission is one I truly believe in.\nAnd believe it or not despite everything he\u2019s done he still gets haters on social media.\nWe discuss how he deals with those haters, how you can love deeper, and how you can overcome your insecurities.\nDiscover all of that and much more, on Episode 622.\nSome Questions I Ask:\nAre you insecure?
