Love you guys you are all great.... I'm so happy that there are others out there that think in a similar way to me.... it gives me hope for humanity. Jonny Wilkinson... I wish I was as eloquent as you 😍 Well done all of you for just being you(s)🤩
I just don't even know what to say about this. I want to throw a load of adjectives at it but Jonny has stunned me into silence. And it's the most beautiful place. ❤️
So many powerful insights provided to use each day as we travel the distance of life. We change as we experience life (growing older is totally great!) and all the thoughts presented in this podcast are so valuable in that these thoughts may make each day amazing (without knowing what the limit is). Great interview and powerful questions pool.
Because Jonny is so interesting, you don’t challenge enough of what he says. What that does mean is that there is a lot of space for me to explore here, but I think with us being emotional creatures and living as individuals in a society. Jake addressed some briefly ‘how do you let go?’ but I don’t think it was countered enough. I know you just want to explore his ideas but where I think he is so on the money it would help to have a little more contextualisation with examples of the harsh realities of life. Been a great listen.
I almost decided to skip this episode as I was so disappointed with the original one you did with Jonny. I think he's great. A true legend of a man, but how he spoke on the 1st episode was far too zen for me. To say washing the dishes is as important as winning the world cup? Seriously? That's insulting to any athlete who has won the ultimate prize in thier sport. Anyway, I decided to give this new episode 5 minutes, and I ended up listening to it all. You cannot argue he's an interesting character. But, I get the impression you're both so in awe of how he sees things so differently to other high performing athletes you have on, your in danger of alienating some, as it comes across that you totally agree and believe in everything Jonny says, which means you disagree with many other guests, as they've explained things very differently. Like I say, I think Jonny is great, but not really somebody who is going to inspire the next world champion athlete, due to his "yeah its all cool, just be yourself, dont push yourself or stress about anything" zen attitude. That recent AJ episode was the best for ages btw 👍
Read the comments on the original video, don't think I've ever seen such an outpouring of positivity and just general 'wow' sentiment as there is in those podcasts. It seems to me that JW achieved in spite of his attitude, and not because of it. He could have had all of the technical gifts, but his ability to put himself into flow and to perform at his best would have been far greater if he hadn't been so stressed and in such a negative space all of the time. You're slicing his career too thinly, surely? Yes, he won the world cup, but his injuries sound like a nightmare, so did he reach his potential? Probably not, 14 injuries in a row, as a result of that same mental attitude that got him to where he is. You say he won't inspire the next champion. Well what about the countless natural talents that have been lost, because of the flawed and regressive attitudes of 'win at all costs' that JW grew up in?
He was designed to win us the WC, It was just finding the right team mates with the right morals and dignity, it was a long process, geared up and done to perfection, they did what they all set out to day, and let JW do his thing.
Jonny Wilkinson, absolute legend. Speaks as well as he played. Top class
great player, speals absolute horse shit, it sounds deep but its twaddle
Following your passion…..live in the moment……let go of the outcome. An inspirational human. 🙏

Yes!
Great interview--powerful with so many valuable insights worthy of incorporating into ones life. Thanks all!
Another insanely valuable and insightful conversation with so much to learn from. Top top class.
I have listened to this twice now and am in total awe of the man. "get out of your own way" makes so much sense to me now on reflection !! Thank you.
absolutely.

True intelligence right there. Do everything out of the present moment, after all, thats all there ever can be.
Could tell Jonny absolutely loved the point on Struggle x Resistance = Suffering. Another great pod guys.
Awsome human being. Love him.❤
Learning to be a better person is everywhere 😉 and within us all.This is so reassuring to the minnions🆒💯🇳🇿😎
Part one was brutal. Can't wait for part 2!
Sure they'll be a part 3 one day!
Really enjoyed this, live in the now, acceptance! Going to have to listen again!!
Feel like this is one of those I'll end up watching at least five times
Wow. What a powerful episode
Another amazing Podcast. Keep knocking it out of the park lads!
Thanks so much, Paul!

Has the ability to complicate a strait line, but makes sense in the end!🫣 He’s the best guest i have heard!
speaks absolute twaddle, the guy has issues i hope he gets the proper help with
Wow what an amazing conversation
Life is about exploration
LEGEND
Yes people always want labels. "Once you tell a child the name of a bird,. It will never see that bird again"
I need this decoding, so I can understand it.
Would be very interested to hear Jonny's opinions on religion and God. A lot of his thoughts strongly align with Christianity.
