Timestamps:

(1:06) - Lessons 1-3: Making better decisions by assuming you’re dumb, learning how to respect yourself, and the way you use your words when selling

(7:20) - Lessons 4-6: You get more out of reading just one book, most champions don’t have something you do, and goodwill compounds faster than money

(11:56) - Lessons 7-9: Death is inevitable, extraordinary accomplishments come from doing ordinary things, and if it's worth doing, it's worth doing well.

(17:11) - Lessons 10-12: Be willing to negotiate everything except for your values, humility, and the happy man has a thousand wishes while the sad man gets one.

(24:47) - Lesson 13: Failure leads to learning. Learning leads to success. Success leads to complacency. Complacency leads to failure. It's not a destination, it's not linear. It's cyclical. 

(26:59) - (Bonus) Lesson 14: Paying any amount of money to make obvious truths real.
