    Motivation

    This week, we have our first guest on the podcast, Matt Arkelian, who shares his experience living an insatiable, or unsatisfied lifestyle, and how his motivation aligns with the topics of previous podcast topics: pride and praise as well as the issue of competition. Follow @insatiated on Instagram for more content like this. In this episode, we dive deep into what pride really is, what differentiates between the negative and positive connotations of both pride and praise, and what Matt's perspective on the issue is. We also take a look into Matt's insatiable lifestyle, strengthening the mind to endure suffering in all aspects of life, pushing himself to new heights that seem unattainable from the outside.

    1000 hours + immortality

    This week we discuss what we’d put 1000 hours into if we didn’t actually have to do the work, and instead we just get the reward. Then we moved on to discuss our thoughts on immortality.

    Competition

    Whether it be fighting for a first place trophy, battling to the bone for class rank one, or aspiring to start the most successful diaper company, life, to say the least, is a competition. Last week we examined the issue of pride and praise, bringing to light a new discussion on the matter of competition.  This week we pick up right where we left off on the issue of competition, and question the answer: competition always promotes progress in society. This week, we dismantle competition at both a societal and at an individual level, discussing our viewpoint on the fairness of the system of hierarchy as well as how we as individuals should approach competition. Thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoy!

    Pride VS. Praise

    Four high schoolers tackle the truths of life. We take preconceived notions about life and deconstruct them to try and understand the true meaning behind life’s most prominent and impactful lessons. This week we talk about whether it’s more important to work for the sake of gaining pride in one’s self, or if it’s more important to work for the reward of praise from others.
