I guess yes, I have wasted a lot of time watching his content and I regret it, I feel the same for one more guru Robin Sharma, most of their stuff feels like the same old motivational stuff repackaged in multiple ways and there's not much new to learn

After watching a variety of his content over the years, my conclusion on the guy is simply that:

1. He genuinely cares about what he does, genuinely wants to help people, and genuinely believes that what he's saying is true and helpful to others.

2. The guy is a workaholic who operates at a level that would burn out even most motivated and hard working people, and his approach to business and life in general is this level of unsustainable, unhealthy hustle.

Personally I think he's a beast who practices what he preaches, but I don't think he's necessarily the correct person to try and mimic or idolize.

He reminds me a lot of David Goggins (from the book "Can't Hurt Me"). He's inspirational, but not someone I'd recommend you try to craft your life after. Both are a$$-kicking hustlers, but I don't think either operates in a healthy way.
