Isaac Lidsky has been a child actor, Supreme Court litigator, entrepreneur, best-selling author, and just happens to be blind. After losing his sight to a rare degenerative disease in his early years he learned the power of not just simply seeing the world for what it is, but mentally manifesting what you want it to be and executing. Isaac shares what lessons can be found in the unknown on this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.

QUOTES:
"The value in this Eyes Wide Open vision that I speak of is, it's not about science, it's not about blindness, it's about the lessons we can take in really taking control over the reality we want for ourselves. Literally choosing who you want to be and how you want to live your life in any moment." [10:50]
"You can live a life of happenstance, of reaction, or you can take some time to figure out how you want to spend your time, who you want to be, who you want to be as a parent, who you want to be as a spouse, and on and on and on. You can try to be that person and you can try to live that life." [21:55]
"Every moment of your life is a choice. How do you want to spend that moment? Who do you want to be? It is not the circumstances we confront that dictate the lives we experience." [25:55]

1. Best interviewer ever. He lets guests speak and seems genuinely interested.
2. Best introductions of the guests. Millions of information in few words.
Gary Vee be like:
- So tell me, my man! How did you start your business?
- Well, you see...
- SHUT UP! That's literally exactly what I was gonna say! To meee - starting a business is like waking up in the morning! Legit, best feeling in the world! 24/7, 365!
- Yeah, I...
-Cuz' I mean, the way I see it....
“I lost my sight and gained vision...” - that shook me to my core. WOW!!!
EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!! Thank you both!
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
Damian Demasi someone recently quoted another great thing from Meditations, so when I saw it at the local bookstore I bought it and put it in the to read pile. Excited to get to it as this is another datapoint that it's got some great wisdom in it.
kaneshirojames it's a really great book... From 2000 years ago!
Damian Demasi yeah it blows my mind there are some people throughout history that achieved an amazing level of clarity about how the world works. Even by modern standards.
You should also check The Enchiridion (or The Manual) by Epictetus (“People are not disturbed by things, but by the views they take of them.”), and On the shortness of life by Seneca (“It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much. ... The life we receive is not short but we make it so; we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully.”). All of them are great stoic philosophers with practical and action oriented ideas. Ideas that seems to be new (like mindfulness) are really old in fact. As humans, we tend to repeat ourselves, and nature repeats itself too:
What is vice? A familiar sight enough. So with everything that befalls have ready-to-hand: ‘This is a familiar sight.’ Look up, look down, everywhere you will find the same things, of which histories ancient, medieval, and modern are full, and full of them at this day are cities and houses. There is nothing new under the sun. Everything is familiar, everything fleeting. (Meditations, 7.1)
I'm happy to see other people familiar with meditations! Reading it for the first time currently.
My take away:
Fear is an illusion. We make excuses to not being able to do things, he is an answer to all those excuses. Don't create excuses, create vision.
Incredibly motivating but also humbling, and a solid reminder of how much we take for granted. A real-world Daredevil, and a truly Strong Man.
Effort matters more than results!
"Losing my sight and gaining my vision", amazing concept.
I teared up when he said to leave his kids happy and thriving. I felt the love he has for them ... great dude!!!! Tom, we love you and what you bring to the world. Blessings to you both and both of your Mrs. As well❤
Great ideas
I've been watching this interview for the last 3 days numerous times. And I still can't find words to really describe it.
I mean, it changed me. His perception, attitude, philosophy just everything about him, made me want to become Great like none has ever. Beyond words!
And so shall I strive to do!
Cheers! And Thank you!
Well said. My experience has been the same!
I realized my poverty metality was perpetuated from fear of sacrifice and commitment. I wasn't giving myself permission to ASK for anything, including money, because I wasn't committed to sacrificing for the goal (of delivering value to my community). I wasn't allowing myself to feel worthy, or to feel like I have anything of value to deliver to the world, because I hadn't built up authority over my life through sacrifice and commitment. Now I know I have to start achieving small goals to build up my personal authority/credibility, and accept all the sacrifices that come with it. At the time when I make those sacrifices, I know I am truly committed to my character and values.
thank you for sharing this..it seems that i have the same problem: lack of commitment and fear of sacrifice in order to achieve my goals..can you explain what the eye opener was for you to come to that conclusion and how you take back authority over your life nowadays? maybe share some details or examples, would appreciate that a lot..
Sibel Sürücü Really for me, it comes down to trying to do anything creative. Like trying to make promo video for a non-profit. Trying to recruit people to help me make it. And I got people who were willing to help, but my fear of failure was stopping me from actually making it. Which crushed me that I didn't have the courage to look at the possibility of success and I let the possibility of failure overwhelm me. I contemplated what the difference between me and successful people was. Like what attitude does GaryVee and Tom Bilyeu have that I don't? It seems like they had a willingness to stand up for their choices and its consequences that I just didn't have. I just had this realization recently, but goals like quitting smoking, starting exercise, and putting out content are gonna be my way of developing self credibility. Then let any success from those goals help me build momentum to whatever is next.
thank you for answering..i guess my major obstacle is the fear of suffering which blocks me immensely..start with small things and gain momentum over that seems a way to get things started..
Well said!
Tom you are definitely one of the quote unquote "Napoleon hill " of our time .This interview only could shatter lots of limiting belief including disabilities
Very kind! Glad it resonated!
This guy, Isaac Lidsky is freaking crazy! He embodies what it means to be an iron man. We, the virtual reality seers brag about eyesight. Well, although we perceive it to a blessing to see what's in front of us, he nearly renders it obsolete in his world. He taught me that there's more to eyesight than the eyes see. Thanks Isaac for opening my eyes wide.
His inner eye is wide open to experience true happiness and success. He is listening with his inner ear fully engaged in the present moment. He is happy because he is awake and intentional about the things he experience.
That was a tremendous interview. Congratulations Impact Theory team for gathering real people with real stories which I see as real life heroes. Thank you for that program!
POWERFUL! This is one of my favorite interviews thus far. Isaac’s insights and logic on struggle and success are words I needed to hear today. Thank you for such a great interview, as always, Tom!
One of my favourite interviews, by far! What a beautiful soul, inside and out, Isaac is! Soo inspirational! He speaks so eloquently! Makes me think about my life and my choices! Thank you, Tom and Isaac!❤️
what a life story! i always feel humbled when i see what kind of obstacles some people needed to overcome. and also feel like i really have nothing to complain about in my life, even when not everything goes the way i want...
I feel exactly the same!
I met Isaac on a Business convention. His life and story made me change my life 180. He just opened my eyes to all the possibilities that I had in front of me. Master.
Yet again you have out done yourself Tom. We do not think we are Powerful therefore we let fear rule us. Understand You are Powerful and tell yourself constantly You are POWERFUL and you will over come anything. Many Thanks for the Impact you and you guests have on millions of people.
Thank you Tom for impact theory! Every single day i start my morning listening to your videos. Keep the valuable content and highlight these amazing people that have proven you can dp anything. Isaac, you arw superman!!! I can't believe how one person can have done ao much with their life and i am sure there is still more to come and all the while being blind. You are a true inspiration 🤗🤗
Can’t have enough with your guests on this amazing show. Watching them I personally feel the impact, new thoughts and ideas are born in my mind and soul. A big Thank you for your efforts to make this happen Tom!
im halfway through and this is going in my favorites playlist. i need this on repeat. also is it weird that i watch/put on impact theory when im studying/cleaning/eating/playing with my bunny son Norman. turned so many ppl on to your channel Tom, you have certainly made an impact in my life. im meeting someone tomorrow for the first time that I plan on introducing this channel to- you know when you can feel that certain vibe, very specific one that you know in your heart of hearts will appreciate this stuff? pulling ppl out of the matrix. im a 22 yo college student at SJSU and i realize this is also a passion of mine
also can we talk about how much issac's voice reminds me so much of OBAMA'S???!! when my eyes are open or closed like WTF ?!!! such a powerful voice omg ❤️
Brilliant. No idea how I missed this one till now. Very aligned with the whole IT mission and message. Off to get the book.
Phenomenal. Now how to take it, internalize it and put it into action...
The most impactful takeaway for me was this concept of communication. So often we take what we see visually as the truth, but as he said, that is only 10% of the reality. This will change how I communicate and process information. Thank you for putting this out there Tom and team!
Love that! Totally agree.
Oh my goodness. How life changing thank you Tom!!! I love Isaac
One of my favorite people ever! Such an amazing person and I'm so glad to have experienced this interview.
This was really impactful.. I'm still in awe on how much he has grown and how much most of us have been devolving in a sense...
WOW, What a great interview. I had to rewind this after listening for the first 10 min so that my husband could listen with me. I told him, "You've got to hear this intro and then listen with me." He was sold within the first 10 minutes also. We downloaded 'Eyes Wide Open' on Audible right then. Looking forward to hearing the book.
Thanks Tom and Isaac, what an inspirational way to start my day.
Omg, this is epic. Great choice of people to come in the show. Love this
So glad he resonated!
Wooza, one of the most powerful interviews at IT ever. And that says a lot, because the interviews are generally extremely fascinating. What a wise guy -- and you can see and hear in his voice that these aren't platitudes he's repeating, they're truly firmly held beliefs that are completely part of his soul.
I was watching your interview with James Laurence. So interesting they both speak of the “first step”. Just taking that first step no matter the situation knowing that it won’t kill you and it is only your mind holding you back. Very powerful! Thank you for this series it is truly appreciated!
I remember watching his TED talk. Isaac is truly an inspirational person. Thanks Tom!
One of the best IT episodes. Everything is a choice
As someone who often thinks in fears, this is the best interview I have ever seen on the topic. I love the idea of, what you think you see is actually a virtual reality constructed by your brain.
Daredevil definitely came to mind while watching this. High level mentality for sure! The most important thing he mentions is taking the next step or moving forward. Sometimes we and even right now let ourselves get stuck instead of moving forward even if its just from A to B as he said.
Whaaaat this guy is pure gold. I bet he's a true rolemodel especially for blind people. His accomplishments are amazing. Everyone should learn from him.
Wow. This is gold. So much respect for this man and his "worldview". It's coincidental that I put up a spoken word piece on my channel just yesterday - Speaking about the identity that we maintain, creating a "me" using the blood of our former selves. We have all of this information stored up based on moments that no longer exist, and often time's we are limiting ourselves by seeing the world through a subjective lens which keeps us holding onto these ridiculous interpretations of who we think we are.
Inspiring life story.... Thanks for posting, Tom.
I respect this man. Not one cus word was given. His attitude, his aura, the way he carries himself...not too serious but with a hint of humor. This guy brings it all. WOW!
Thanks. I'm slowly compiling my own Principles, and I pulled a few good seeds out of your conversation. Namely, to be proactive instead of reactive as often as possible and that fear is a pessimistic prediction of the unknown, and should be treated as such.
Thank you for all the empowering insights and stories you share with each video. I hope the impact you are leaving in the world returns to you in the form of happiness and fulfilment.
Gracias infinitas Tom!
Mr. Lidsky is one amazing dude. I really enjoyed this. But I also want to say that I just recently found your channel, Tom, and I am so impressed with the content and your interviewing skills and style. So natural. So refreshing. So insightful. Thank you!
LIDSKY, SAID, "I've been Blessed with this Vision, Born of Blindness." straight up, opened my heart to everything I thought I feared. Thanks
Beautiful talk. Really really insightful and goes deep into 'bending' that virtual reality to the actual reality. One to remember for a long time.
Tom you are my Oprah! lol I love your interviewing style.
Loved this interview. How inspirational and humbling. Also, he sounds just like Obama and it makes me love him even more!
the energy the channel provides .
Amazing interview AGAIN Tom! I really appreciate how you pick a person's philosophy for life apart and dig for practical application, I learn something absolutely EVERY time! Please keep the interviews coming!
PS- LOVED the joke about the "convenience " of pretending to be blind, really highlighted how internalized the concept of taking ownership and not feeling sorry for himself has taken form in his life, as well as how we can reform how we think of our misfortunes etc
Watching the intro, I had no clue he was blind. Love his outlook on life, another good episode of IT!
Tom really does his homework and that is so crucial when you interview stalwarts !
He is really inspirational and absolutely clear about his plans.
What a beautiful metaphor: “we keep ourselves off the stage for fear of bad reviews” ...and thus we do t dance!
I will be in your show in the future! Love what you guys do and the empowerment you provide to others.
I admire both of you, Thank you for impact theory !!!
What an awesome guy. Great focus on some of the fundamental truths of life. Also loving the endless feed of sight puns.
Yet Again... Such an empowering show! I truly appreciate your work in making this world a better place.
Thanks again!
So happy we stumbled on this 🙌🏼 so much value. Buying this book NOW!
Tom, love ALL your content! I follow you every where. Isaac offered some great insight! Side note: I was scanning your page because I wanted to hear from powerful women at that moment, but there were only a few. I listened to those interviews which were AMAZING! I hope you bring more women to your platform. Thanks much! Kind suggestions from an avid supporter :)
I do not know to show my gratitude or amazement first! Fascinating! Thank you Tom!
So glad you liked the episode!
No handshake this time at the beginning! :D
This guy is just an inspiration from his head to his toes.
Thank you for this awesome interview!
b0cajuni0r it’s probably because he blind he may have needed help walking out
kendra border I knooooow :)
Absolutely incredible person and interview. Real man right there.
ANOTHER Great interview. Please keep them coming. New actions and perspectives are nearly always the result.
You had me at "new actions"!
Thank you both for this inspirational conversation.
Woooww!! Just at the introduction and already an amazing story 😮 “Human Potential is Nearly Limitless.”
This is amazing. God bless you both!
So powerful and really eye-opening!!! Thank you!!!
A remarkable guest in every way. Thanks Tom ,your shows keep evolving and get better and better stg that it's not easy in today's copycat world.
Thanks so so much - both Tom and Isaac
The first few minutes when he talked about the illusion of life I almost felt my limiting beliefs shatter... thank you
very very powerful interview Tom....
can't explain how this has added to my world and perception
thanks
Thank you so much for this. I will be reading your book.
I am resonating with you so much sir, I am sure you are a scholar of Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius. What you are speaking about lines up a lot with stoic philosophy mixed with that of Napoleon Hill What we believe determines out reality. The truth and core beliefs we believe about ourselves and the world is what becomes true. This was amazing. Thank you!
I think this has to be top 3 I have watched in impact theory for sure. This is amazing to listen to a different perspective. Thank you 🙏🏻
So glad you liked it!
Tom Bilyeu I did! Thank you, keep up the great work 👍
Holy shit, this guy is incredible. If this isn't a kick in the ass to get moving, I don't know what else is left. Great interview, Tom!
Incredible show, thanks to both of you. Anyone else notice how Lidsky's linguistics are very similar to Barack Obama? Great voice and flow in his communication style.
Fantastic! Inspiring to watch people from different walks of life.
This dude gave me chills!
This guy is a true Superman!!!
OHHH THIS IS AWESOME!!! THANK YOU!!!
So glad you liked it!
Tom Bilyeu this video inspired us to do this

Great one.Everything is a choice.Absolutely incredible Tom
Thank you! Continued success! To choices!
Amazing as always!
PURE EPIC! Thanks so much dudes!
This is an amazing and inspiring interview
Im just gonna say it. The way he speaks sounds like president obama. Its tripping me out in the best way possible. What an incredible human. 💜
Ikr? I wonder if it's a thing acquired at Harvard. I hear Pete Butigieg using that cadence, frequently, too.
Samantha Jacinto “harvard law”
So true!
Great video, we're keen to delve into the "our reality is not what we physically see but what we choose to create and see" thing. Thanks guys :)
Glad you liked it!
Incredible!!
One word ...Daredevil ..Thanks Tom for this amazing interview
I always know when the interview was really great, when I feel like it ended too soon.
thank, great interview,
Loosing your site but gaining vision. Fucking yes bro. Seeing the ability to change your perspective is loveable*
Respect to Isaac Lidsky, what an amazing person and he is right- we can make the choices of the life we want. Thank you IT!
PS. Tom, Can you get Les Brown on your show?
Fantastic interview... I had heard of his book from one of my real estate groups but have not read it yet... learning so much from all your interviews Tom..seriously and Thank YOU for constant release of such amazing content!!! .
I have question that is probably really odd for Issac if he read this... if he wouldn't mind answering... In your process can you see with your mind? I know you can't with your eyes but can you with your mind? I ask because I can actually see things and visit places and I am really there with my mind... Like how people dream.... I do it awake... Eyes wide open!!! I won't see anything that is really in front of me or around me... I will actually see my vision and it's interactive with me... I am interactive with it... If that makes any sense... I know it sounds a little weird or perhaps crazy but I thought maybe he would know or understand what I mean....Using the mind to see.... If he does... Is it a gift that helps him in the creative process? I think it is a gift and can be useful... Thank YOU!!!
